Chapter 248: I love both the quintessence of Chinese culture and gossip, only children make choices
When Xin Qing followed Tang Fanyuan to Tang's residence in the military district, he was completely stunned.
There were so many people sitting in the room, and leading them was an old man who seemed particularly amiable. He was the marshal who often appeared on TV, and the middle-aged man sitting below him looked even more familiar to her.
If she was not mistaken, this should be the more radical and conservative General Tang who is often shown in videos, right?
Tang Fanyuan noticed how confused Xin Qing was, so she pulled her in front of Old Man Tang and extended her hand.
"Grandpa, a meeting gift!"
He was not polite at all and looked like the little bully of the Tang family.
Mr. Tang's happy expression became even more amiable, and he took out a red gift box from the table next to him and handed it to Xin Qing.
"Call Grandpa."
Tang Fanyuan accepted the gift box for Xin Qing without any hesitation.
"grandfather."
Xin Qing listened to Tang Fancheng's words passively and called him "Grandpa" sweetly.
"Hey!"
Old Master Tang had just agreed, but before he could say a word, he saw Tang Fanyu dragging Xin Qing to the front of Tang's uncle and aunt.
"Call me uncle or aunt!"
Tang Fanyuan’s main focus is on the segment of quickly recognizing people and receiving gifts, using this to ease Xin Qing’s nervousness about meeting his grandfather.
If Xin Qing knew that Tang Fancheng had this idea, he could really say: Thank you so much, my friend!
But not only did she not have so many thoughts, her mind was guided by Tang Fanyuan to recognize everyone present in the Tang family!
There are only five people younger than Tang Fanyun in the Tang family. Two of them are of the same generation: Tang Fanyu, the youngest son of Tang family's eldest uncle, and Tang Fanyun's younger sister Tang Fanmian.
Hearing the two people calling her sister-in-law, Xin Qing opened her handbag somewhat awkwardly, only to find five red envelopes inside, two of which were golden yellow. She looked up at Tang Fanyuan.
He looked at Xin Qing with a smug look on his face, his beautiful eyes revealing: Is your husband capable?
Xin Qing smiled and handed two golden red envelopes to Tang Hanyu and Tang Hanmian respectively.
Then, she listened to the little kid calling her auntie and distributed the three golden red packets to others, to which the kid said thank you politely and in a sweet voice.
Tang Fanyuan zipped up the backpack and handed it to the guard beside the old man, asking him to help deliver it to his bedroom.
Xin Qing then understood why he, who usually never carried a backpack, suddenly carried one today, and it was to receive a gift!
"Okay, let's eat!"
After Tang Fanyuan had collected all the gifts and distributed the red envelopes, she immediately called for dinner.
After dinner, Qingqing's nervousness should no longer exist, right?
Tang Fanyuan thought happily in his heart, and then he realized that his idea was too simple.
After everyone had a happy lunch together, his wife was taken away by her mother, who said that it was a women's gathering and men were not allowed to attend.
What kind of women’s party is this? Doesn’t he know that his mother wants to drag Xin Qing to play mahjong?
Tang Fanyuan endured it again and again, then turned to look at his father.
"Dad, don't you and my mom have the habit of taking a nap?"
He has been holding back on having sex with his wife until now, and was thinking of going to the movies with her this afternoon, having a candlelight dinner in the evening, and letting Xin Qing drink a little wine to relax.
Finally he eats his feast!
"Humph!" Tang Junyi glanced at Tang Fanyuan, then walked to his father, "Dad, I'll go fishing with you this afternoon!"
Who can't see the unsatisfied look on his face?
Let you show off in the group!
Tang Fanjin and Tang Fangeng felt their scalps tingling as they watched their wives being taken away by their mothers. Thinking of Xin Qing's terrifying ability to be close to her daughter, they both even thought that before Xin Qing started school, they would only be able to see their wives at night!
Seeing Tang Fanli following Grandpa Tang to pack up the fishing gear, the two of them looked at each other and decided that they should just go to work honestly and try to shorten their work schedule. After Xin Qing returned to school, they would go out with their wives for a honeymoon alone!
As for why he didn’t take his wife away!
joke!
Not to mention Xin Qing’s actions, they couldn’t even defeat their mother.
The women in the Tang family are all treasures!
Someone once asked them curiously, what would they do if their wives didn’t get along with each other?
Well, whoever’s wife angers the public should take his wife away and not get involved with the Tang family easily.
For example, their eldest cousin’s wife, the green tea literary soldier.
There's nothing that can be done about it, since Tang Fanming just falls for her tricks and can't help but feel pity for her if she sheds a few tears!
This time Tang Fanming used the excuse of not being able to return from the military exercise, and they would rather believe that he was worried that his wife would ruin Xin Qing's first impression of the Tang family.
Watching Min Xiuyuan pull them into the glass greenhouse, she arranged for the servants to bring the mahjong table she had prepared long ago, and then took out a handful of one-yuan coins.
Xin Qing was completely confused. Did her mother-in-law pull her over in such a hurry just to play mahjong?
She thought that Min Xiuyuan was disgusted with her after knowing her disfigurement, and now she is pulling the women of the Tang family together to persuade her to abdicate!
Each person has ten coins. The dealer gives two dollars to the winner, and two dollars to the loser.
Those who have lost all ten coins must give up their seats!
Min Xiuyuan told Xin Qing everything she had learned from him.
Then an experienced and semi-experienced player led a group of novices and started playing mahjong in the way they thought was right, and they played happily.
Nangong You, who was watching temporarily, whispered to the servant who was waiting for instructions nearby, asking her to squeeze some fruit juice and prepare a bunch of juices of various fruits. If she wanted to drink a mixed drink, she could mix it herself.
The usually quiet greenhouse was now filled with the sound of mahjong cards being shuffled and the laughter of people asking for money after winning.
Of course, everyone talks about the gossip they have heard or learned.
The beginning of this gossip chat was that Min Xiuyuan asked Xin Qing about her experience in Country F and whether there was any shocking gossip in Country F.
Xin Qing thought about the information that Tang Fancheng had people investigate, and told it all without holding back.
With these two taking the lead, the others also began to talk about some small gossips that they knew but others didn't know and could be passed on.
The game lasted until dinner time.
Playing mahjong with your hands and chatting about gossip, if you are thirsty, there is delicious juice to drink.
There is no woman who doesn't like to listen to gossip. They can even dig out some "truths" from gossip that they have never thought of.
The group of women felt that time passed too quickly and before they knew it, it was time for dinner. They agreed to continue after dinner.
As a result, after dinner, Min Xiuyuan, the culprit, was taken back to their villa by Tang Junyi as quickly as possible.
He also told Tang Fanyuan to bring Xin Qing to stay here with the old man for a few more days.
What a joke! If Xin Qing also goes back with them, the four women can just get together to play mahjong. Will they still want to eat meat in the evening?
The two brothers Tang Fanjin and Tang Fangeng took turns patting Tang Fanyuan on the shoulders.
"You've been studying abroad for the past few years and have spent less time with Grandpa. Now it's a good opportunity for you to bring your wife to chat with Grandpa more!"
"Don't worry, the sound insulation here is much better than that in the villa!"
As people left one after another, the Tang family's old house, which had been quite lively, suddenly became deserted.
