Chapter 259 Meeting the In-Laws?

"Suck. Ha."

Rong Taotao put down his job, looking full of endless aftertaste, as if two big words were written on his face: Satisfied!

After this mouthful of crucian carp and tofu soup, Rong Taotao was completely intoxicated.

If you have a chance, you really need to talk to Li Lie to discuss it. Isn’t this much better than liquor?

At the dinner table, Gao Qingchen and Xia Fangran were chatting happily over wine. Both of them had made certain achievements in their respective fields, and they performed their missions in roughly the same place, so they had a lot in common.

Cheng Yuan looked at Rong Taotao lovingly. The little guy's expression of enjoyment made her laugh a little: "Haha."

Without a doubt, this is the greatest compliment to her craft.

Gao Lingwei lightly slapped Rong Taotao's arm and said, "How about another bowl of rice?"

"Come on, kid, give me the bowl." As she said this, Cheng Yuan had already stood up.

"Hey, I can't help it." Rong Taotao hurriedly came to his senses and stood up, "I'll serve it myself. Aunt Cheng's cooking is delicious."

Putting aside whether it tastes good or not, Rong Taotao’s little mouth is really sweet!

Halfway through lunch, Cheng Yuan felt relieved a lot.

Of course she knew that Rong Taotao was a Soul General, and she had imagined that Rong Taotao would have such problems. After all, he was the second generation, and he was most likely to be spoiled and had a bad temper, let alone a dignified Soul General.

Although Gao Lingwei once told her mother about Rong Taotao's character, seeing is believing after all.

And not only Rong Taotao, but also these two famous Songjiang Hunwu teachers were very kind and had no airs.

"Eat more vegetables and eat less." Yang Chunxi said.

Who does Rong Taotao care about you?

As soon as I sat down, my spoon reached into the plate of braised pork.

Pouring the braised pork soup on the fragrant rice made my soul take another walk in this delicious broth.

Who can stop me at this moment! ?

Cheng Yuan looked at his greedy look and said softly: "Just now, Xiaowei gave me the gift you brought. I like it very much. Thank you Xiaorong."

"Just call me Taotao." Rong Taotao took a bite of rice. It was really difficult for him to maintain a good image when faced with delicious food. "I have to thank my sister-in-law."

Cheng Yuan: "Sister-in-law?"

Rong Taotao gestured to Yang Chunxi beside him and said, "I have a brother named Rong Yang, and this is my sister-in-law."

"Oh?" Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment. Just now, she thought Yang Chunxi was her daughter's university tutor and teacher. Now it seems that this is Rong Taotao's family?

Suddenly, the meal tastes a little different?

Cheng Yuan looked at Yang Chunxi and said, "I do know that Xiao Rong, um, Taotao has a brother, who seems to be a Xueranjun?"

"Yeah." Yang Chunxi smiled and nodded.

"Hey." At this point, Cheng Yuan seemed to be full of emotions, and couldn't help but asked with concern, "It's better to get together less and stay apart more, right?"

Yang Chunxi was stunned for a moment and responded: "Yeah."

Cheng Yuan glanced at Gao Qingchen, who was drinking at the side, and said, "It's the same for me. If he doesn't retire early, I'm afraid I'll be living alone. Once he joins the army, it's hard to even meet him."

"Mom." Gao Lingwei frowned slightly and lightly touched her mother's leg with her leg under the table.

"But you are better than me." Cheng Yuan reacted and said with a smile, "At least Yang Jiao is a soul warrior, and I am just an ordinary person."

Gao Lingwei inherited her mother's eyebrows. The mother and daughter have almost the same eyes, but their temperaments are very different. Cheng Yuan feels very kind to people, with the gentleness unique to Chinese women, and the brilliance in her eyes is gentle. , not as sharp as Gao Lingwei.

Yang Chunxi smiled politely and nodded without responding.

Her love life is not perfect. Although the relationship is stable, the road ahead is bumpy.

In fact, it would be a good choice for Rongyang to come to Songjiang Hunwu as an instructor, but such an idea only existed in Yang Chunxi's mind and was almost difficult to realize.

Rong Yang and Yang Chunxi are both young talents with very strong abilities, which also puts a heavy burden on them.

"You two joined the army together." Finally, Gao Qingchen, who was drinking and chatting happily, turned his attention here.

Rong Taotao put down his job with difficulty and nodded.

The look of relief and joy on Gao Qingchen's face couldn't be more false.

Similarly, the worried look on Cheng Yuan's face is also extremely real.

Gao Qingchen continued: "Special Team Zodiac, I heard that your brother helped a lot in it."

Rong Taotao nodded: "It's true that we joined the Snow-Ranging Army, but we are still in the reserve ranks in Team 12. We have to wait until we graduate from college before becoming a regular member, or going to other units."

"Hahaha, okay, okay!" Gao Qingchen said hello several times, picked up the wine glass, and took a sip. The spicy wine burned all the way to his chest. He grinned and spit out the smell of alcohol.

Normally, no matter what profession parents work in, they almost never want their children to enter the same profession.

Because they have spent their entire lives experiencing the hardships of this industry firsthand.

Not to mention the Xue Ran Army, that is not only hard work, but also a matter of life!

However, as a father, Gao Qingchen, even though he had broken his arm and calf, was still very happy that the two of them joined the Snow Burning Army. It could be seen from his performance.

In comparison, her mother Cheng Yuan's reaction was very normal. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was worried, but because of the situation, she suppressed the words in her heart.

"Huh?" Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, and a hand suddenly reached out from under the table and gently held her hand.

Cheng Yuan turned to look at Gao Lingwei, only to find that her daughter was still looking at her father, answering his father's questions with Rong Taotao.

this.

Cheng Yuan lowered her head and looked at her daughter's palm. For a moment, she shook her head and smiled.

Is my daughter trying to comfort me?

She has grown up and knows how to care for others.

In fact, what Cheng Yuan didn't know was that Gao Lingwei's heart was full of guilt and self-blame.

Because she doesn't know when her parents' life will end.

Fortunately for my father, he would even be happier if he returned to the land of snow.

After all, Gao Qingchen is still a snow realm soul warrior. His days of struggle, most of his time and memories in his life, are in this snow realm.

but mother

She is just an ordinary person, but she wants to stay in this snowy land.

No matter how prosperous Songbai Town is or how close it is to the real society, for ordinary people, one thing can negate everything: it is always winter here, with cold wind blowing and frost and snow falling.

The huge Songbai Town is more like a prison to Cheng Yuan.

No one forced her to come back here, just a word from her daughter and Cheng Yuan came back.

You can talk a lot with your words, but your actions won't be false.

Cheng Yuan used her actions to show her greatest support and deepest love for her daughter.

Everything is just to make Gao Lingwei feel more at ease, to allow her to focus more, develop better, and have no worries.

"Uncle Gao."

Gao Qingchen's face was rosy and he had obviously drunk a lot. He looked at Rong Taotao and suddenly said, "You can call me Uncle Qingchen."

Rong Taotao was surprised. It was also a way of saying it. Would it make him appear more intimate? Maybe.

"Uncle Qingchen."

"Hey." Gao Qingchen's eyes were a little blurry. Looking at Rong Taotao, his smile became more complicated.

Gao Lingwei looked at her father and felt that he was a little drunk.

But it was hard for her to say anything on such a happy occasion today.

Seeing Gao Qingchen's stunned eyes, Rong Taotao felt a little confused. He swallowed what he wanted to ask before and asked doubtfully: "Uncle Qingchen? Did you remember something?"

"Yeah." Gao Qingchen came back to his senses, smiled and said, "There used to be a young soldier in our team. He was very special. When he first joined the team, he would call me this in private. His eyes with you Very similar."

But Gao Qingchen's smile looked a little bitter in Rong Taotao's eyes.

Rong Taotao's heart moved and he said, "Then him."

Gao Qingchen shook his head: "I got lost. I got lost during a mission. I stayed in the snow vortex and never came back."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

"Lao Gao." Cheng Yuan suddenly broke the silence, "Welcome the guests to dinner."

Obviously, you shouldn't say the word "guest" as it will distance you, but it can also remind Gao Qingchen.

"Ah! Haha, look at me, as people get older, it's easy to think about the past and nag." Gao Qingchen smiled, picked up the wine glass towards Xia Fangran, and bumped it gently.

"Pa~"

At this moment, the sound of the wine glasses clinking together sounded more like the sound of heartbreak.

Xia Fangran took a sip of wine and, being an old man, he changed the subject directly: "Taotao, during the Chinese New Year this year, you bring your Mr. Li home and have a good drink with your Uncle Qingchen. I feel like I'm about to reach my limit." I'm afraid it's going to stretch my hips."

Rong Tao Tao She followed the stick and said directly: "That won't work! The whole table depends on you to accompany my uncle to drink. You have to stand up!"

Xia Fangran: "Huh?"

Rong Taotao stood up and took a big mouthful of cold dishes and put them on Xia Fangran's plate: "Eat, look at this authentic Jia Liang, cucumber strips, dried tofu, minced meat, vermicelli and chili noodles. After one bite, I'm sure you can drink three more cups."

"Hahahaha." Gao Qingchen couldn't help laughing. Alcohol does amplify people's emotions.

No matter what his personality was like when he was a soldier. At this moment, this retired veteran in his mid-fifties with a broken arm and leg has a really good character.

Of course Rong Taotao knew that this was the result of Gao Qingchen's hard work and adjustment.

Any outstanding soul warrior would have his hands full of blood, let alone a soldier of the Snow Burning Army. Once his violence was released, Rong Taotao and Gao Lingwei combined would not be able to compare.

Xia Fangran had a sad look on his face: "You have no conscience! I don't even have a partner myself! I came all over the place to meet your in-laws with you! Is this how you treat me?"

Rong Taotao:? ? ?

Gao Lingwei's palms holding the vegetables froze slightly.

Yang Chunxi lowered his voice and said dissatisfied: "Xia Jiao!"

"Hahahaha." Gao Qingchen laughed again, "Drink, drink."

"Hey, let's drink and drink." Xia Fangran awkwardly clinked glasses with Gao Qingchen, and after a gulp of wine, it was so spicy that it choked his nose.

With Rong Taotao here, embarrassment is impossible.

He bumped Gao Lingwei's shoulder and said, "Did my uncle agree?"

Gao Lingwei:? ? ?

Rong Taotao: "Look how happy he is smiling."

Gao Lingwei picked up a piece of chicken and put it into Rong Taotao's bowl.

Her pretty face was slightly red, her beautiful eyes were slightly narrowed, and with a hint of danger, she squeezed out two words from between her teeth: "Eat."

Tsk tsk Dawei is so angry that she is so embarrassed~

Rong Taotao picked up his rice bowl and took a bite with great pleasure, what a guy! So delicious!

Rong Taotao immediately forgot about meeting her in-laws, picked up her chopsticks and went to stew the chicken with mushrooms.
