Chapter 148 Marriage Matters Need to be Careful
Chen Qingrong answered honestly, "To ward off evil spirits. In our countryside, we have a saying that when we go on a long journey, we should bring willow leaves or willow branches to ward off evil spirits. Every time I left home, my parents would get them for me."
"I made this for you."
Tang Xiaoru said with a smile, "Feudal superstition, there is no evil in it."
Chen Qingrong reached out to grab it with dissatisfaction, "If you don't want it, give it back to me."
"You gave it to me, how can I take it back?" Tang Xiaoru quickly dodged and pouted, "Although I don't believe in feudal superstition, this thing smells good, so I'll take it."
Chen Qingrong finally breathed a sigh of relief and warned, "When you arrive in Shanghai, send me a WeChat message, Director, or I won't be at ease with you."
Tang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him and said, "I know, I know. I noticed that you look so daddy-like now."
Chen Qingrong said with a straight face, "What are you talking about? I am concerned about you. If it were someone else, I wouldn't care about their life or death."
"You really take my kindness for granted, huh."
"Don't hum so much, it makes it hard to tell whether you are a man or a woman."
"..."
At this time, the car also arrived.
"I'll get in the car first, you go back." Tang Xiaoru waved her hand.
Chen Qingrong stood there and watched her get into the car, then watched the car drive away before turning around.
drop.
WeChat rang.
He took out his cell phone and found that Tang Xiaoru had sent him a photo.
Tang Xiaoru took a photo of his back.
Chen Qingrong asked, "Why do you want to take a picture of my back?"
Tang Xiaoru, "Don't you think you look miserable from behind?"
Chen Qingrong, "I'm angry, I'm angry. Are you going to say that I'm like a dog next? If you dare to say that, I'll go on strike!"
Tang Xiaoru, "Roll your eyes, you're crazy, who would say that? I wanted to tell you, forget it, just pretend I didn't say it."
"Um, what exactly are you trying to say, Director?"
"fine."
Tang Xiaoru immediately exited WeChat and muttered, "I'm so stupid. How can I expect a piece of wood to have a brain? Tsk, Tang Xiaoru, you are such a big idiot."
……
In the afternoon, Chen Qingrong and his parents took his grandmother to the hospital for a check-up.
The test results didn't come out until five in the afternoon. Miraculously, grandma's condition was much better than when she first started.
Old Chen even tentatively asked if it was a case of terminal lucidity, but the doctor said no, grandma's physical condition was really improving, which could be seen from her spirit.
If I had to explain it, it might be because seeing her grandson and his wife returning home rekindled her hope for survival.
It sounds mysterious, but such things are not uncommon.
Chen Qingrong had seen a picture online of an old lady in the hospital. The doctor had issued a notice of critical illness, but the old lady's son showed her her grandson's voice. The grandson kept calling her "Grandma", and the old lady actually called him back to life.
Sometimes blood ties are so magical.
No matter what, it's great news for the Chen family that grandma is getting better gradually.
At least, the final result of Chen Qingrong's return this time was not to attend a funeral.
After returning home, he shared the good news with Tang Xiaoru, and Tang Xiaoru was also happy for his grandmother.
After chatting, Chen Qingrong suddenly found that he and the director had been chatting on WeChat more and more frequently recently. Even the content of one hour's chat was far more than that of the previous week.
This shows that the relationship between him and Tang Xiaoru is changing for the better from that of superiors and subordinates.
As for how long it will take for the relationship to turn into a romantic one or a husband-and-wife relationship, Chen Qingrong currently has no idea.
Anyway, the spoilers tell him that he and Tang Xiaoru will get married three years later and have twins, a boy and a girl.
Three years... How many things could happen during this period?
For now, Chen Qingrong can only take one step at a time.
……
He stayed at home for another two days. Seeing that his grandmother's appetite was getting better and better, he finally felt relieved.
Wang Xiu'e also urged him to go back to work.
Wang Xiu'e said, "Although our Xiaoru is your superior, you can't just rely on this relationship to stay away from the company. Your grandma is getting better now, so you should go back."
Chen Qingrong smacked his lips. "Our Xiaoru? Xiaoru and I haven't even gotten married yet and you're already calling her that? You're a little too impatient."
"Why can't I just yell like that? I think you two are a good match. Although you don't look like her, men don't make a living by your looks. As long as you match her in other aspects, that's enough."
"..."
For a moment he couldn't tell whether his mother was praising him or criticizing him.
Old Chen also interjected, "Find some time to ask Xiaoru's parents if we can find time to meet and meet the in-laws in advance."
Chen Qingrong was shocked. "No, no, this is too fast. We should at least wait until Xiaoru and I have been dating for about a year before we talk about this, right?"
Old Chen frowned, "As long as you two have a good relationship, wouldn't it be better to get married sooner? Why do you have to wait?"
"Yes, we need to observe each other more. Marriage is a big deal, we need to be careful." Chen Qingrong found a reasonable excuse, and changed the subject in case they would talk about it again. "Okay, Mom, please prepare some dry goods for Xiaoru's family. I'll buy a ticket and leave in the evening."
"Okay, Lao Chen, come and help me."
"Ah."
That afternoon, after Chen Qingrong had lunch with his parents and grandmother, he went out carrying a particularly heavy denim bag.
He took a bus to the city and then took a taxi to the high-speed rail station. At around eight o'clock in the evening, he finally returned to the Magic City.
As soon as he left the high-speed rail station, Chen Qingrong received a call from Tang Xiaoru.
"Have you left the station?" Tang Xiaoru asked.
Chen Qingrong was a little surprised and said, "Director, how did you know I was coming back? We really have a tacit understanding."
Tang Xiaoru exposed him mercilessly, "You posted a screenshot of 12306 on your Moments and tagged me. Didn't you want me to pick you up? How could I not know that you were coming back now?"
A scheming man.
It's obvious that he planned all this himself, but he's still pretending to be innocent.
I bother!
What made Tang Xiaoru most upset was that she actually came.
I am even more disgusted!
Chen Qingrong smiled awkwardly, "I, I was just joking, I didn't expect you, Director, to really come."
Tang Xiaoru raised her eyebrows, "Then should I leave now?"
"No! It's really expensive to take a taxi back from the high-speed rail station. I'd better trouble you to give me a ride."
"Oh, you're using a respectful title again? It seems that you'll be extra respectful to me whenever you need something from me." Tang Xiaoru said sarcastically.
Chen Qingrong knew he was in the wrong, so he didn't argue. After asking for her specific address, he came to find her with his bag on his back.
Seeing the bag he was carrying, Tang Xiaoru was startled, "Are you going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures, Second Junior Brother?"
Chen Qingrong was even more shocked when he saw her.
Because spoiler text appeared above her head again.
"On the fifteenth of this month, you almost lost Tang Xiaoru completely, but after going through this test, the feelings between the two of you have become deeper, and your relationship has also made great progress."
Chen Qingrong was confused.
Almost lost Tang Xiaoru completely?
How to lose?
