Object, object!

The time will soon be the Spring Festival, Qin Chi spent two days researching on 'how to meet parents successfully', and Xiang Lan was amused by her serious attitude.

Now there is nothing that online shopping can't solve. Before the express delivery was about to expire, Xiang Lan asked Qin Chi to pick some of the online purchases according to the 'meeting parents gift list' she researched and send them urgently.By the way, Xiang Lan also said that these were bought by his own pet, which made Qin Chi gain a lot of favors without seeing anyone.The relatives also know that Xiang Lan's pet is a little smaller than Xiang Lan, and she is still a student.

At the age of 29, Xiang Lan and the others started their vacation, so in the morning the two of them took the high-speed train back to grandma's house.Xiang Lan's grandmother's house was only two hours away from G City, and it was almost noon when they arrived. Xiang Lan told her about her train schedule, and her eldest cousin, who had returned to his hometown two days earlier, drove to the high-speed rail station to pick them up.

The eldest cousin is 6 years older than Xiang Lan. He is almost 1.9 this year. His height is close to [-] meters. He is tall and handsome. He is currently dispatched to work in Switzerland.

When he saw someone, Xiang Lan rushed over, the two hugged each other, and then the eldest cousin played a trick and lifted Xiang Lan up: "Oh, my hill is not light."

The little short-legged Xiang Lan shouted angrily: "Lin Dapeng, let me down."

The eldest cousin put her down, and patted her butt mischievously: "Little girl is impolite, call me cousin."

Xiang Lan kicked her, the two of them had enough fighting, Xiang Lan pulled Qin Chi behind him and introduced: "This is my date Qin Chi, and this is my eldest cousin, Lin Dapeng."

Qin Chi nodded grandly and called "Big Cousin", which made Lin Dapeng smile and say hello. He took a closer look at Qin Chi, then quietly gave Xiang Lan a thumbs up, and Xiang Lan smiled shyly.

Grandma's house is half an hour's drive away from the high-speed rail station. Now the conditions in the village are good and the road has been repaired, so every family has bought a car.

The old house is no longer available. A few years ago, the uncle who was the principal of the town middle school retired and went back to the village to build a three-story building. Although the second uncle has not retired yet, he also built a two-story building next door to the uncle’s house. I plan to come back to provide for the elderly after retirement.

Grandma lives with my uncle and aunt, and the uncle's house is often popular, so everyone gathers here.

On the way, Lin Dapeng called home and said that he was picked up and that he was almost home.There is a yard under the building. When the car drove into the yard, Lin Dapeng shouted in dialect: "Grandma, Xiaoshan is back."

Xiang Lan happily got out of the car and shouted in dialect: "Sister-in-law."

The silver-haired old man came out of the room, and when he saw Xiang Lan, he shouted happily: "Xiao Shan, you're back, you're back."

Xiang Lan walked over and hugged her coquettishly: "Sister-in-law, I miss you so much."

Qin Chi got out of the car and walked behind her, pulled her to her grandmother and said to Lan, "Sister-in-law, this is my date, Qin Chi."

Qin Chi tried his best to put a smile on his indifferent face, and imitated Xiang Lan's dialect and shouted: "Hello, sister-in-law."

Grandma looked at Qin Chi with cloudy eyes, and said with satisfaction: "Good match, good match, the little doll looks good."

Xiang Lan translated to Qin Chi: "Sister-in-law said you look good."

Followed by the uncle and aunt, and the second uncle and aunt, after some introductions, everyone liked Qin Chi, a good-looking and polite kid.

Qin Chi, who gained a lot of favors, said that for the first time, he felt that he looked good and was quite useful.

It was almost noon, they had already prepared lunch in advance, and the family had a lively lunch.After dinner, the adults chatted in the living room on the first floor, and grandma went to chat with the old people in the village.Xiang Lan carried her luggage to her room on the second floor. The room was small, with a 1.2-meter bed in it, a wardrobe next to it, and a desk, bookshelf and sundry rack in front.

Qin Chi looked at the books on the bookshelf. Most of them were domestic literary masterpieces, as well as foreign masterpieces. There were also some novels in the corner.There are some gadgets on the sundries rack, handicrafts made of shells and the like.

Looking around, there are awards and celebrity posters on the wall, a photo frame on the table, a single photo of her in adolescence, a photo of her hugging her grandmother, and a family portrait of her grandma and her family.

Qin Chi picked up her solo photo, and the date on it showed that she was in junior high school at that time, with baby fat on her face, smiling happily at the camera, with the teaching building in the background.

The eldest aunt knew that she had changed the clean sheets for her in advance when she came back, Qin Chi sat on the chair, Xiang Lan sat on the bed, and said: "After college, I seldom go home, and when I come back, I can finally understand what it means to leave home. "

Seeing Qin Chi holding her photo, she turned to Lan and said, "This is a photo I took at school after I finished my junior high school entrance examination, so silly."

Everything is electronic now. In recent years, few people will post photos and put them at home.Seeing Qin Chi looking at the picture of the table with great interest, Xiang Lan thought that there seemed to be an old man who looked at the pictures when he entered the old room, so he simply took out a photo album from the drawer and showed it to Qin Chi, all of them were old old photo.

There are photos of her when she was a baby. Most of them are photos of her grandmother holding her or alone, and there are also photos of her uncle and aunt holding her, or her cousin taking photos with her.When I was a child, there was a picture of a red mole on the forehead of a riding horse.elementary, middle, and high school……

Although there are not many photos, Xiang Lan will explain the story behind each photo, allowing Qin Chi to slowly piece together Xiang Lan's growth and past that she has never participated in.

Xiang Lan's parents were rarely included in these photo albums. Qin Chi remembered that she said that her parents had been outside when she was very young, and she grew up with her grandmother.

Speaking of the big family portrait in the photo album, Xiang Lan pointed to the two middle-aged men and women standing behind her on the photo album and said, "This is my parents."

The photo is quite new. From the photo, it can be seen that the two outlines are very good, and the temperament is elegant.

"They were college students of that era. After graduation, they were sent abroad to study and exchange, and they stayed after the exchange. I was conceived when they were still studying. They were too busy to take care of themselves, so my mother returned to China and gave birth to me. It will be sent to grandma's house in three months."

"They are very busy, and basically only return to China once every few years. When we were young, we used letters. Later, when the telephone developed, we made calls, and later, when the Internet became popular, we occasionally made videos."

"When I was a sophomore, because of the country's Thousand Talents Program, both of them came back to teach and do research in universities in City B."

"It stands to reason that we might get closer as we get closer, but it's probably because I grew up and got used to them being the symbols on the letter paper, or the voice on the other end of the phone..."

"But when they really come back and we want to get along for a long time, I don't know how to get along with them. When the three of us are alone, we are always extraordinarily silent and a little awkward."

Xiang Lan smiled wryly, probably because of this, she was a little afraid of seeing them except during the New Year. Last year, her parents felt embarrassed and took her grandma out on vacation.

Qin Chi looked at her worriedly, smiled at Xiang Lan, and said, "It's not that I'm sad, it's just that I didn't think of how to deal with this relationship."

Qin Chi also grew up in a special environment, no matter whether they had a cold relationship with their parents or relatives they had met before.She has never experienced that kind of strong family bondage, but she can feel the family relationship between Xiang Lan and her grandmother's relatives. Seeing that Xiang Lan was struggling because she didn't know how to get along with her parents, she sat next to her, He hugged her shoulders tightly.

Feeling the strength on her shoulders, Xiang Lan hugged her and said, "Little girl, it's good to have you."
