Chapter 139 Meeting
Chapter 139 Meeting
Chi Xiaotong pushed the door open quietly.
"Who?" Tian Yudu had already touched the stick, sat up, and was ready to fight back at any time.
"Xiaoyu, it's me. Why aren't you asleep yet?" Chi Xiaotong straightened up and asked, lighting the oil lamp.
The room suddenly became bright.
"My dear wife! Why are you back? I mean, why so soon? Have you settled the matter of Cheng Yu?" Tian Yu let go of the stick, stood up and took Chi Xiaotong's outer robe.
"The two of them talked it out, and it was over! Cheng Yu was in a hurry to come back and propose marriage!"
"Has my wife had dinner yet?"
"Not yet, just eat whatever food you have at home!"
"My dear wife, wait a moment. I'll go heat up the food!" Tian Yu said as he went to the kitchen.
Chi Xiaotong pulled him back: "No, just eat whatever you have, no need to light a fire!"
"I'll go by myself. You go back to the kang. It's freezing!"
After wrapping Tianyu back into the quilt, Chi Xiaotong just happened to see the stick on the kang.
"What is this?" Chi Xiaotong picked it up, looked around and asked hesitantly.
"I'm afraid my wife is not here..." Tian Yu answered in a low voice.
Even if he didn't finish, Chi Xiaotong understood what he was afraid of.
"Don't be afraid, my wife is back! From now on, I'll try not to spend the night outside!" Chi Xiaotong kissed his forehead.
"Well, I'm not afraid as long as my wife is here. If it's too late, she doesn't have to rush back just for me!" Tian Yu is very sensible.
"Okay, I'll take out the stick!"
"Well, my wife, go eat!"
"Okay, lie down obediently!"
After a while, Chi Xiaotong came back with two bowls.
The kitchen is too dark, and it’s not cost-effective to light another oil lamp. Just order one and eat it indoors!
You can also feed the field fish a few bites so that he and yourself can eat some.
By the time Chi Xiaotong finished eating and put the bowl back into the kitchen, it was already midnight.
……
"father!"
"Keep your voice down, your mother is still sleeping!" Tian Yu signaled Manman to keep his voice down.
"Mom is back! When did she come back?" he asked excitedly.
"Last night, when I came back, it was already very late and you were all asleep!"
"Oh, then I'll come play with you after you wake up!" Chi Xiaotong would play with the children like crazy, and all three children liked to play with Chi Xiaotong.
"Okay, but I guess it's not possible today! Your aunt's business isn't finished yet, and your mother is still busy!" Tian Yu happened to see Chen Chengyu coming in, and said to Manman.
He nodded knowingly: "I'll wait for mom to finish her work!"
"Cheng Yu, so early? Have you had breakfast?" Tian Yu wiped his hands and went out.
"Brother-in-law, where's my sister? Let's go to my house to eat together later!"
"My wife is still sleeping! She slept late last night. I'll go wake her up!"
"Um"
Chen Chengyu sat in the yard, took Tuantuan and hugged him for fun.
"Are you up so early? Is there something wrong?" Chi Xiaotong came out after getting dressed, still a little sleepy.
"Well, let's go to my house and talk! Let's have breakfast together!" Chen Chengyu stood up.
"Yeah," Chi Xiaotong responded, and washed her face before she woke up.
When we arrived at Chen's house, no one mentioned anything until we finished breakfast.
After eating, they gathered in the main hall, and Chen Chengyu spoke first: "Let me express my feelings first. I like him and want to marry him!"
Chi Xiaotong nodded. She had known this for a long time, but she just didn't know what the two elders meant.
"If you want to marry him, you have to wait until your father and I go to his house and take a look! We also have to find a matchmaker to come to his house!" Chen's mother said angrily.
It’s not that Chen’s mother doesn’t want Chen Chengyu to marry, but it’s mainly because of the other party’s family. What she has heard about them is not really good, it can be said to be very bad.
As mothers and fathers, they certainly hope that their daughters will marry someone who is of equal status, has good character and looks, and whom they know well.
So, the two elders discussed it all night and finally decided to go and see it for themselves.
"Just ask the matchmaker to go with us!" Chen Chengyu was anxious.
Chi Xiaotong held her forehead and said, "I know you are anxious, but can you not be so anxious? You don't even give your parents any buffer!"
Mother Chen glared at her angrily: "You useless thing!"
Father Chen also sighed helplessly.
The two men sat on the side and listened. The Chen family had no rules that men could not participate, but they were still a little shy when faced with these things. What's more, a brother-in-law and a younger brother had never seen the man and could not give any opinions.
Chi Xiaotong kept smiling and said to the two elders, "Mom, Dad, pack up first, we'll go tomorrow! I'll talk to Cheng Yu!"
Chen's mother nodded, and Chi Xiaotong pulled Chen Chengyu out of the house and into her room.
"You are so mean! I don't know what to say to you!" Chi Xiaotong was so angry that she had a headache.
"What's wrong with me?" Chen Chengyu still looked innocent.
"Where is your usual smartness? You were talking about me before! Look at you now! At least I was very clear about how to solve those problems at the beginning! What else can you think of now? All you have on your mind is that boy. "
"I..." Chen Chengyu wanted to defend himself.
"Don't say that! Can't you see that mom and dad have already relented? Go and take a look. If you think it's okay, it won't be quick to ask a matchmaker to propose marriage!"
"Wouldn't it be faster to just ask the matchmaker to come along?"
"The two old ladies haven't even seen the man, don't know where he lives, or what he looks like, and you want them to accept a son-in-law based on just a few words from us. Aren't you thinking too simply?
You will spend your whole life together, so you have to let someone who has been there to check for you! At least, you have to meet him/her first! Got it?"
"Oh, see you then!"
Chi Xiaotong closed her eyes, she had no idea what to do with Chen Chengyu now.
She felt that she was already in love when she met Tian Yu, but there was something even more serious. How could she have had the nerve to persuade herself in the first place!
"But, if we go directly, will it be bad?" Chen Chengyu thought hard and finally thought of a question.
"You can think of it, but dad can't? Just ask one question later and it's over! Are you afraid to ask one more question?" Chi Xiaotong mocked.
Chen Chengyu got up and went out, ignoring her.
Chi Xiaotong shrugged and followed him out.
"No need to go to his house, just take a look from a distance!" This was what Chen's father planned.
After all, here, the reputation of men is taken very seriously. A hasty meeting would have a huge impact on the reputation of men.
Father Chen could also take the opportunity to ask others for information. He has more experience than Chi Xiaotong and might know some things that Chi Xiaotong couldn't find out.
Chi Xiaotong had been there twice, so naturally she had to go along this time as well.
"You just said you wouldn't spend the night outside, and now you're breaking your promise!"
"It doesn't matter, my wife has something to do! I know, I'm not afraid with Chengshan by my side!"
Because someone had to look after the house and Chen Chengshan couldn't be left alone at home, Chen Chengshan slept at Chi Xiaotong's house with Tian Yu at night.
"Well, let's try to get back as soon as possible!"
"It's okay, Chengyu's matter is more important!"
Although he did not participate, Chi Xiaotong would tell him that he still admired the man very much, because he had courage and insight, which was something he could never do.
He was looking forward to seeing him.
Anyway, after hearing Chi Xiaotong's evaluation, Tian Yu felt that this person must be good! He just blindly trusted Chi Xiaotong!
