  Chapter 223 [223] Let's eat together

January 21, 1993, the second-to-last day of the Renshen Year in the lunar calendar, was the day when Lin Yiran visited Zhang Yang's house for the first time. I was so excited that I didn't sleep well.

This is of course not the case, but because last night, the first snow fell in Qingcheng this winter, and it was a bit cold in the morning, and the family did not have the habit of turning on the air conditioner in winter, so Zhang Yang didn't want to get out of bed in the morning, because his father Repeatedly, scolded by my mother, and laughed at by my sister, again and again.

  I persisted until nearly eight o'clock before I put on my clothes under the quilt, and mustered up the courage to get up.

When he was eating, Zhang Wei laughed at him again, and went out in the sound of Zhang Shouyi's urging to "come back early for lunch". After that, there was not much meeting, and his parents also went out together, which should be listed in advance list to go grocery shopping.

Only Zhang Yang was left at home, and he began to discuss with Lin Yiran when she would knock on the door to make the best impression on her parents—Zhang Yang’s answer is naturally that you make the best impression when you come, because they have the best impression of you. It's good in itself, but she still insists that there must be a most appropriate time.

Zhang Yang had no choice but to follow suit, discussing the different feelings of her parents when she knocked on the door when they were doing different things. Lin still came up with a "I'll wait downstairs, what time do you think is most suitable?" Just tell me" idea.

   This made Zhang Yang somewhat guilty, because although he also attached great importance to Lin Yiran's parents, but the first time they met... it seemed that they were far from her.

"This only shows that I am more mature and confident... But having said that, Yiyi should be more confident, right? Even from the perspective of a boyfriend who has been in love with her for half a year, I haven't found anything truly worthwhile. The place to complain...except for the relatively little physical contact..."

While the two were discussing, someone knocked on the door. Zhang Yang was wondering if his parents had bought too many groceries and couldn't get the keys. When he opened the door, he saw Zhang Wei and Tang Yanqi standing outside the door, holding hands One piece, it seemed that they had just said something interesting, and they were all laughing.

  Then Tang Yanqi saw Zhang Yang first, and when those sparkling eyes met his gaze, there seemed to be a touch of joy, then he slightly bowed his lower body, and said sweetly: "Hello, senior."

Zhang Yang first responded to Tang Yanqi with a smile, beckoning her to come in, and when passing by Zhang Wei, he gave her a questioning look, but Zhang Wei obviously didn't understand, and asked inappropriately Voice: "Why?"

  Tang Yanqi turned his head to look over, Zhang Yang could only smile, pretending nothing happened

Zhang Wei pulled Tang Yanqi to her room, so Zhang Yang went to the study and continued to help Lin Yiran make the final selection of the gifts he brought. After a while, he seemed to be aware of turning around, and saw Tang Yanqi's figure coming out of the room. Passing by the door of the study, it seemed that he was coming out of the bathroom and wanted to go back to Zhang Wei's room, then turned his head to look inside the study, and was meeting Zhang Yang's eyes.

   She glanced at her bright eyes, walked to the door of the study, and asked in a low voice: "Senior, are you writing "Sculpture of Gods"?"

  Zhang Yang shook his head and smiled, "No, I've already finished writing."

Tang Yanqi let out an "ah" and asked in surprise: "I finished it long ago? Then why..." I probably wanted to ask why I didn't update it, but then I understood the reason, wrinkled my nose slightly, and asked cautiously: "Then can I Can't ask, what is the ending?"

If it was Zhang Weiwen, Zhang Yang could get rid of even a word of "roll", but obviously he couldn't do the same with Tang Yanqi, and because of the impulsive strike-up when he "meeted" in the library last year, seeing Tang Yanqi now is somewhat awkward. Embarrassed, he smiled and said, "It's the last time left. There aren't many things. It's basically a foreshadowing."

   "Bedding?"

  Tang Yanqi blinked, looking a little surprised: "New book?"

   Zhang Yang smiled and nodded.

   Tang Yanqi asked again: "Will Guo Xiang appear again?"

   Zhang Yang asked back: "Do you like Guo Xiang?"

   Tang Yanqi hesitated for some reason, glanced at him quickly, and then quickly looked away, "I like it, but I still like Xiaolongnv better, after all... she and Yang Guo knew each other earlier and got along more."

  Zhang Yang felt that her expression was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what it was, so he could only agree with a smile: "It's true... isn't Yang Guo now with Xiaolongnv too?"

  Tang Yanqi gave a soft "hmm".

   There was only a brief silence, she raised her head and smiled sweetly at Zhang Yang, "Then you can keep busy, I won't affect you."

   Zhang Yang couldn't bring up what Lin Yiran was waiting for, so he smiled and stopped talking. Tang Yanqi quickly turned around and ran to Zhang Wei's room.

Zhang Yang lowered his head and replied to Lin Yiran, telling her that he seemed to have forgotten to tell Zhang Wei that she was coming, so Zhang Wei brought her classmates home, Lin Yiran didn't care much, and quickly replied : "It's okay, it's not that I won't let others go, I'm not that overbearing."

   Zhang Yang replied with a smile: "It's not domineering, it's respect."

  Lin still returned a haughty expression.

The final result of the two people's discussion on the time to visit the door is: too early or too late is not suitable. If it is too early, there may be housework to be done, Zhang Yang may not get up, and more importantly, if Zhang Yang's parents are shopping for vegetables If they came before, Lin still didn't know how to deal with this situation, because it was obviously to go out to buy vegetables for himself.

If it is too late, firstly it will be impolite, and secondly it may cause Zhang Yang’s parents to be cooking when they arrive. In this case, chatting will delay the cooking, affect the taste or be too hasty, which will affect the mood of Zhang Yang’s parents. In turn, it will affect the impression of her future daughter-in-law... and there is suspicion that the visit is only for food...

So the time finally decided was when Zhang Yang's parents arrived home, and Lin Yiran started to leave home, or it could be a little later. When cooking, she can also help out with things within her capacity to gain more favor.

  Because she doesn't have many things to do, so she can't go too late, otherwise she will have nothing to do, and she can't help if she wants to help, but it's not suitable to sit and wait. Forcing help may lead to unpleasantness...

After confirming with Lin Yiran three times that his parents hadn't come back, and re-discussing how long it would take for Zhang Yang's parents to leave after they got home, Zhang Yang finally heard movement outside the door, so he quickly went to open the door, and he saw Both parents were standing outside the door with things in their hands. Zhang Shouyi was putting down his things and opening the door with a key. Zhang Yang hurriedly took the food basket from his mother and helped him take it in.

   "How much food did you buy?"

   "Not much, not much."

While Zhang Shouyi was talking, he brought the meat and vegetables he bought back to the trigger and was distributing them when he heard the voice of a girl outside. He thought he heard it wrong, and looked at his wife, but saw the same Confuse.

  Then the couple looked at Zhang Yang at the same time: "Lin Yiran is already here?"

   "Tang Yanqi..."

  Zhang Yang shook his head, and after he finished speaking, his father stared wide-eyed, with an expression of "I actually have a son like you": "Did you bring Tang Yanqi home?"

  Zhang Yang almost vomited blood. He really didn't understand his father's brain circuit. Fang Qianxue said angrily, "It must be Wei Wei! He brought him home? Can he agree to lead Xiao Qi?"

   Zhang Yang thought at first that his mother was wise, but after thinking about it, he felt that something was weird...

   Before he could speak again, Tang Yanqi appeared at the kitchen door and greeted sweetly: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Fang..."

Tang Yanqi and Zhang Wei have a very good relationship. Since Zhang Yang "leaved home", Zhang Wei probably can't find anyone to quarrel with. He feels a little uncomfortable at home. He feels that the family is alone. On weekends, he often invites Tang Yanqi to come to the house. , or go to her house, the relationship is getting closer.

As early as when teaching Tang Yanqi and Zhang Wei, Zhang Shouyi and Fang Qianxue liked this well-behaved and sensible student very much. Her brother's whimsy, Tang Yanqi is now a student in Qingcheng No. 2 Middle School, but he still meets in the market, and without the relationship in the classroom, it is more natural to get along with each other.

At this time, although Tang Yanqi felt that it was inappropriate to come today, he still greeted her with a smile, and after a few words of pleasantries, Zhang Wei dragged Tang Yanqi back to the room. It didn't come at the right time, so after the two girls returned to the room, Zhang Yang looked at his parents and looked at each other with a helpless expression.

   "Don't Zhang Wei know that Lin is still coming today?"

   "Didn't you tell her?"

   "You didn't tell her?"

  Then the couple turned their heads to look at Zhang Yang at the same time, and Zhang Yang spread his hands: "I thought she would know for sure... It's also strange that she was so honest these two days and didn't tell me about it."

   "It's all here."

  Fang Qianxue sighed, and under the gaze of Zhang Yang's wide eyes, she said, "Talk to Zhang Wei when I have a chance."

   Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I thought you were going to say, "Here we are, let's eat together"! "

  Fang Qianxue glared at her son, Zhang Shou said, "Should Zhang Wei tell Xiao Qi? It's not good."

  Fang Qianxue said: "Let's just casually mention that Lin Yiran is coming soon, so it's fine. Xiaoqi knows this, so he must leave by himself."

   Zhang Yang opened his mouth, but found that he didn't know what to say, so he had to shut up.

   After Fang Qianxue and Zhang Shouyi made an agreement, they were busy cleaning up and preparing to cook. Zhang Yang also helped, but was kicked out soon.

According to his mother's instructions, he came to Zhang Wei's room and knocked on the door, and then opened the door. He saw the two sitting side by side at the desk, not knowing what they were writing. He, Zhang Wei asked, "What for?"

   Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Do you eat fruit?"

  Zhang Wei thought for a while, and said vigilantly: "Eat it if you cut it well."

   Zhang Yang curled his lips, "If I cut it well, why would I ask you?"

"I knew it!"

  Zhang Wei rolled his big eyes, "Don't eat!"

   "What about the ones that don't need to be cut?"

   "Is it ready to wash?"

   "Go and wash."

"go away."

   Zhang Yang closed the door, scalded a pear and an apple with hot water, cut them into pieces, put them in two small fruit plates, carried one over, knocked on the door of Zhang Wei's room, and pushed it open.

   Two pairs of big eyes looked over again.

  Zhang Yang walked in with a fruit plate, Zhang Wei quickly took a book and covered it on the notebook he was writing, Zhang Yang looked a little strangely, "What are you writing?"

   "You want to take care of it?"

  Zhang Wei stared at him ferociously, Zhang Yang didn't bother with her, put down the fruit plate, turned around and left the room, Zhang Wei was still behind and asked: "Did you cut it?"

"if not?"

   "Can I eat it?"

   "Then don't eat it!"

   Zhang Yang picked up his phone again and saw Lin Yiran's unread message:

   "What about people [question]"

   "Are your parents back?"

   Zhang Yang calculated the time and sent her a message: "Well, you are leaving now, it should be just right for you to come over."

  Lin still replied almost instantly: "Okay."

  After a while, I replied again: "I'm a little scared, what should I do?"

   Zhang Yang was a little funny, "Why don't we change the time?"

  Lin Yiran: "[Chopper]"

   Zhang Yang: "That's fine, Ann, my parents have seen you, and they have a good impression of you. Besides, there is nothing dissatisfied with my vision... Hurry up."

  Lin Yiran: "I'm already in the car, come down and pick me up later, I can't get my things up."

   Zhang Yang: "Then I said I would pick you up, but you still don't want to."

  Lin Yiran: "That's different, it's the first time I'm going, and I asked you to pick me up, what's the matter..."

   Zhang Yang: "Then bring it up yourself."

  Lin Yiran: "If I can bring it up, why do I need you!"

  Lin Yiran: "[beat][beat][beat]"

  Zhang Yang put away his phone first, and went to the kitchen to tell his parents that Lin was still on his way. Zhang Shouyi frowned, and said in a bit of embarrassment: "Then what about Tang Yanqi?"

Fang Qianxue said a little funny: "What should I do? The two of them hid in the room and couldn't come out, and there was no way to tell them about Lin Yiran's visit... It's nothing if they encounter it. Xiao Qi understands what's going on, so he will definitely leave by himself gone."

   Zhang Yang inexplicably remembered the few words Tang Yanqi said just now, and felt that there seemed to be some overtones. Before he had time to think about it, he heard Fang Qianxue shout: "Wei Wei, Zhang Wei!"

   "Huh?" Zhang Wei's voice came faintly from the room.

   "You come out."

  Zhang Wei opened the door and walked out, asking, "What's the matter?"

  Fang Qianxue smiled and said: "Your sister Yiyi will be here soon, and you and your brother will clean up the house and mop the floor."

"what?"

  Zhang Wei was a little surprised, "Who?"

  Fang Qianxue gave her a white look, "Lin Yiran, come to our house for dinner."

  Zhang Wei said "Wow", "Brother, you really brought Lin Yiran home?"

  Tang Yanqi probably heard the voice, came out of Zhang Wei's room, looked at Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang smiled at her, and then said to Zhang Wei: "What's the fuss about this..."

  Zhang Weidao: "How old are you guys... are you going to meet your parents now? Then are you going to her house?"

   "I've met her parents a long time ago, okay... I'll go to pay New Year's greetings in a few days, I can't be without attitude at all."

   "You mop the floor."

   "You drag."

   "It's your girlfriend who wants to come, not my boyfriend."

   "Mom, did you hear that Zhang Wei said that she has a boyfriend."

Tang Yanqi smiled and listened to the bickering between the siblings, and also came over to help pack things. Zhang Yang wanted to say no, but Zhang Wei had already murmured to his friends that this unreliable brother's behavior made people feel righteous indignation. I brought my girlfriend home...

  In the kitchen, Zhang Shouyi gave his wife a look of "Can you not tell me earlier?"

  Fang Qianxue replied: "I just remembered too!"

  The house is already tidy, and there is nothing to tidy up. Just tidy up a little and mop the floor. After Tang Yanqi helped, he said goodbye to Zhang Shouyi and Fang Qianxue with a smile.

  Zhang Shouyi was still worried about what to do just now, but now Tang Yanqi took the initiative to leave, but he was a little embarrassed, and asked to stay: "How about... eat here..."

   "No, my parents are still waiting at home."

   Tang Yanqi smiled sweetly and waved his hands, "Goodbye, Teacher Zhang, goodbye, Teacher Fang."

   Then he looked at Zhang Yang, waved his hand, but didn't speak. Zhang Yang smiled, then felt his phone vibrate, and saw the message from Lin Yiran: "I'm downstairs at your house."
