Chapter 376 [Fate and Mother-in-Law and Daughter-in-Law]
376
In Longjingyuan's villa, Yang Chen was sitting alone on the sofa in the hall, watching the pale political news on TV alone, and yawned lazily.
Reaching out to pick up a cup of English-style afternoon black tea from the coffee table, it is deep red and bright in color, and the white curls are steaming. Before you drink it, the aroma of black tea has already hit your nostrils.
Yang Chen took a sip. To be honest, he didn't like to drink tea like this, but right now he wasn't in the mood to drink tea at all. His attention was almost entirely on the other side of the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the four women have been chirping for more than an hour, all kinds of laughter are endless, and occasionally even some weird laughter, even Lin Ruoxi, who is almost isolated from smiles on weekdays, suddenly There were a few laughs, and what made Yang Chen feel the most complicated and inexplicable was that these four women seemed to have completely forgotten the existence of him as a man.
How to make a meal for almost two hours! ? Usually Wang Ma alone only needs less than an hour!
Moreover, this was the third day in a row that the meal time was delayed, and the root cause was Guo Xuehua's arrival!
Guo Xuehua's arrival suddenly increased the number of topics at home, and all kinds of chats became active. As for the reason, I have to start from three days ago...
Three days ago, when Yang Chen brought Guo Xuehua home, Lin Ruoxi, Hui Lin and Wang Ma were all taken aback.
Lin Ruoxi knew that Yang Chen had gone to see Guo Xuehua, but she didn't expect to bring her to her home directly, and to stay for a while!
Lin Ruoxi blushed and her heart beat all of a sudden, on her fair and lustrous delicate face, the rosy ground was like a juicy peach, a female president who would not be nervous in front of thousands of employees, she didn't know how to face Guo Xuehua—in her own name On the other hand, she is basically an ironclad mother-in-law!
"Guo... Mrs. Guo, hello." For the first time in Lin Ruoxi's life, she didn't know how to greet her, but she felt that she had to try her best to look welcome. !
Do you feel presumptuous and proactive when called "Mom"? And it's really hard to speak. Called "Miss Guo"? Although Guo Xuehua is indeed very young, but he is a junior! Calling "Madam Guo", seems a little too rusty and indifferent... Lin Ruoxi is about to die from a headache!
Hui Lin didn't need to think too much, after all, she knew Guo Xuehua before, so she could just call her "Aunt Guo". Mama Wang was a few years older than Guo Xuehua, so there was nothing embarrassing about it. respect.
Guo Xuehua asked Yang Chen who Wang Ma was, and then greeted them one by one in a friendly manner. When he arrived at Lin Ruoxi's side, he looked at Yang Chen beside him thoughtfully, and saw that his son had no idea at all. Guo Xuehua thought about it, and said to Lin Ruoxi: "You are Ruoxi, I've met a few times before, but we didn't get to know each other well. I didn't expect that after going around such a big circle, I would become a family." people."
Lin Ruoxi was suddenly embarrassed, Guo Xuehua's words could not be more clear, she had already treated herself as a daughter-in-law, that is to say, she had indeed recognized Yang Chen, and also planned to accept this sudden daughter-in-law.
In fact, Yang Chen himself was also in a state of ignorance. He suddenly "caught" an old mother home, and felt his mother's side for the first time since he could remember. It was also difficult for him to adapt. Even when driving on the way home, Almost drove the wrong way several times! Therefore, there is no time to worry about how the ready-made mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Lin Ruoxi and Guo Xuehua get along.
Because on the way home, Yang Chen secretly used the innate qi of the Derivative Sutra to channel the veins of Guo Xuehua's whole body, so Guo Xuehua wasn't very tired.
Everyone welcomed Guo Xuehua to the hall and sat down. After Wang Ma brewed a pot of Tieguanyin, she began to chat simply, roughly why Yang Chen suddenly had a family, and how Guo Xuehua planned to live here, etc.
What surprised the three women was that Guo Xuehua's first sentence was to smile gently and nostalgicly at Lin Ruoxi: "Ruoxi, your mother is Xue Zijing, right?"
Lin Ruoxi's delicate body trembled slightly, her watery eyes widened, and her face, which was already flushed nervously, suddenly turned into astonishment, returning to her usual coolness.
"Miss Guo...how did you...know?"
This really made Lin Ruoxi unbelievable, even Wang Ma, who was familiar with the past of the Lin family, looked at Guo Xuehua in surprise, not understanding how she knew about Lin Ruoxi's mother.
Lin Ruoxi's mother Xue Zijing, since she married into the Lin family and married Lin Kun, she has almost lived a quiet and desolate life, and she doesn't have much contact with the outside world. There will be no more contacts.
When Xue Zijing was in Lin Ruoxi's high school, she ended her life in obscurity because of leukemia. In fact, I don't know if it's because her husband, Lin Kun, spends his time outside and doesn't take much care of his family. Xue Zijing's temperament is also as indifferent as if he didn't eat fireworks.
Lin Ruoxi didn't have much contact with her mother, but many lonely and cold temperaments were greatly influenced by her mother, but, apart from these cold things, it seemed that there was nothing left for Lin Ruoxi.
For so many years, no one has ever mentioned her mother's name in front of Lin Ruoxi, and even Lin Ruoxi herself, when thinking of the past, mostly only thought of it, but never thought of the least noticeable mother.
Guo Xuehua smiled lightly and said: "It's nothing surprising. In fact, from the first time I saw you, I felt that you were very similar to your mother, but I didn't expect it at the time. A while ago, I knew you were Lin Shiyu Lei International It's only because of the CEO that I've confirmed that you are Zijing's daughter. Ruoxi, your mother and I are actually good sisters who grew up together, we went to school together, and we also went to university together. "
Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, her mother's already somewhat blurred and cold figure appeared in her mind, her eyes were slightly moist, "Really, my mother... never said it."
"Young Madam, she was taciturn before she was alive, but she never mentioned Madam Guo." Wang Ma also said regretfully.
Guo Xuehua's face was slightly sad, he sighed, turned his head to Yang Chen and said with a smile: "Yang Chen, in fact, I also thought it was amazing at first, maybe it's fate. I told Zijing when I was young, and I will have it in the future." Children, if they are men and women or women, let them identify as relatives. If they are different, they will become husband and wife. Originally, because ours is useless, I lost you, and I thought I would never have the chance to fulfill that promise. But I don't think, somehow, God actually let your two children get married."
Yang Chen raised his eyes and looked at Lin Ruoxi with desolate eyes. It seemed that the woman had fallen into some kind of past events, so he said with emotion: "It's nothing to be surprised about. I used to think that I would never get married in my whole life. Passed alone."
After hearing Yang Chen's words, Lin Ruoxi came back to her senses, and looked at Yang Chen with a complicated expression. Lin Ruoxi licked her net, but her dimples were beautiful. Obviously, such a thing as "fate is destined" made her feel a little Shy and somewhat sweet.
After hearing Guo Xuehua's words, Hui Lin's expression was a bit gloomy, thinking, Brother Yang and sister are really destined to each other.
Then, Guo Xuehua talked while reminiscing: "More than 20 years ago, I married into the Yang family, and Zijing married Ruoxi's father. Because Yanjing is far away from Zhonghai, and I don't have much to do on weekdays. Opportunity came here, and Zijing has that kind of temperament, and our relationship has weakened a lot. A few years ago, I suddenly heard from other classmates that Zijing died of illness, and I was very sad for a long time."
"Ms. Guo, can you tell me about my mother before? I... In my impression, my mother has always been sitting on the balcony alone, looking at the sky outside, sitting all afternoon, but not talking." Lin Ruoxi Qiqi Aiai asked, a little embarrassed, that pitiful appearance is pity.
Guo Xuehua smiled strangely: "Ruoxi, in terms of closeness, I and your mother are sisters, you call me Mrs. Guo, it's a bit blunt. In terms of relationship, you and Yang Chen are husband and wife, let alone you should call me 'Nv Ms.', but if you still can't speak, call me that word...you can call me Aunt Guo like Hui Lin, I think that's fine too, at worst, it's okay to change your name after you slowly accept it .”
Wang Ma hurriedly winked at Lin Ruoxi, obviously, Wang Ma hoped that the relationship between Lin Ruoxi and Guo Xuehua's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would improve quickly, so calling "Mom" was justified.
Who knows, Lin Ruoxi was relieved, Tian smiled and called "Aunt Guo".
Afterwards, Guo Xuehua told a lot about the past, about Lin Ruoxi's mother Xue Zijing, there were many interesting stories, which often made the four daughters overjoyed at the same time. Lin Ruoxi didn't expect that her mother didn't live her life purely and indifferently.
It has to be said that Guo Xuehua has traveled all over the years, opened so many orphanages, and has excellent social ability, so whenever she comes to the family, there is always laughter and laughter.
Yang Chen actually felt a little strange in his heart, since his own mother was the same sister as Lin Ruoxi's mother, Xue Zijing, why didn't his mother-in-law, who died early, pass away for so many years, but didn't come to sweep the grave and mourn, and, even if she was very busy, she couldn't It's not like we haven't seen each other for so many years after we got married, right?
However, these questions are secondary, and Yang Chen is too lazy to pay attention to these questions, he just hates that these women are talking about the past, but turning cooking into a meeting.
Yang Chen has already seen the noon news from the morning news, if this continues, the morning news will have to be rebroadcasted.
"Hey, are you alright? I'm hungry!" Yang Chen finally couldn't help shouting.
In the kitchen, Wang Ma's voice came, "Master, don't worry, this will be fine, we'll serve it right away."
After a while, the four women came out of the kitchen with bowls, chopsticks and food. After Guo Xuehua put down a plate of stewed fish, he smiled and frowned and said to Yang Chen, "Yang Chen, you are the only man in the house. Even if you don't eat, serve A plate is fine, why do Wang Ma Ruoxi and the others do all the housework?"
This can be regarded as a mother teaching her son. Guo Xuehua has experienced ups and downs in life and is a person with clear insights. Although she is full of guilt towards Yang Chen and wants to make up for the responsibility of being a mother as much as possible, at the same time, she will not think that everything must be done to Yang Chen. Chen is obedient and obedient, no matter what Yang Chen does, he will treat it as correct.
She hoped that while she could make up for her mother's obligations, Yang Chen would become more qualified to play the role of the head of the family.
At least, since she entered the house for more than three days, she has seen some problems in the house.
For example, the house, car, everything here is Lin Ruoxi's property, and this poor son of himself is actually a pauper! ?
Also, Yang Chen and Lin Ruoxi clearly slept in separate rooms. Although they couldn't be sure if they were actually husband and wife, they also knew that they were not that kind of sticky couple. They slept in separate rooms at such an age. Guo Xuehua thought that they There is definitely a problem between.
As for Lin Ruoxi's temperament, Guo Xuehua can easily see that Lin Ruoxi has a lot of dissatisfaction with Yang Chen. Yang Chen's laziness, casualness, occasional roughness, absurdity and indecency are definitely not what a girl like Lin Ruoxi would do. She likes to make gods, even if she is a mother, she can't see it.
Therefore, before doing Lin Ruoxi's work, Guo Xuehua felt that her son should get rid of some disgraceful habits, and she also hoped that Yang Chen could really straighten the man's waist in front of Lin Ruoxi.
Although some of these understandings are not very accurate, but pity the parents of the world, Guo Xuehua always wants Yang Chen to live a better life.
After Yang Chen listened to Guo Xuehua's lesson, the back of his head, he really didn't have the habit of doing housework, since he moved into this house, Wang Ma handled it in an orderly manner, and he didn't expect this.
Listening to Guo Xuehua's teaching at this moment, he wasn't angry, instead he felt a bit of warmth in his heart. It was rare for him to blush, and ran into the kitchen with a smile, and brought out the two hottest plates.
Lin Ruoxi didn't expect that Yang Chen would listen to Guo Xuehua's words like this. She always wanted Yang Chen to do it, but she never expected Yang Chen to listen. She cast her eyes on Guo Xuehua, and Guo Xuehua also happened to look at her daughter-in-law fù, the two women looked at each other Guo Xuehua blinked quietly.
Lin Ruoxi quickly lowered her head, as if her mind had been seen through, she felt embarrassed, but there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
