After returning home, Chen Mo thought he could have a couple of days of peace and quiet, but he underestimated how well-informed his relatives were.
The doorbell rang non-stop on the second morning.
First, my second aunt brought my cousin over, saying they were just passing by and wanted to take a look.
After chatting for only a few minutes, they started asking Chen Mo what kind of work he did in Jiangcheng, and whether he had made a fortune after hearing that he bought a BMW.
Chen Mo gave a vague answer, saying it was just a regular job and the car was bought with a loan.
Chen Mo had no choice but to say that his job was unstable at the moment.
After my second aunt left, my third uncle came again.
He was carrying a box of milk, saying it was to nourish his elderly mother.
He sat down and started praising him for being successful, then mentioned that his own son was about to graduate from university and was having difficulty finding a job.
She implied that she wanted Chen Mo to help her make an introduction.
Chen Mo was at a loss and could only say that he had already resigned and didn't have the ability now.
Uncle San's expression immediately softened.
Next came my aunt and cousin —
Four or five groups of people came in one morning.
All I have is a BMW, right?
Is it really necessary for everyone to act like this?
Chen Mo finally understood what it meant to be "poor in the city, no one cares; rich in the mountains, distant relatives come to visit."
In the past, when I traveled back by car, I rarely received phone calls during holidays.
Now look what's happened, they've all come out.
They were all eager to introduce him to potential partners—the daughter of a colleague, a young colleague, a friend's niece—
Fortunately, my mother was still quite lucid.
Every time someone suggested introducing him to someone, she stopped them.
"Chen Mo has a girlfriend, she's in Jiangcheng."
"The girl is lovely; I'll bring her back to show you next time."
That's how they managed to get rid of those well-meaning relatives.
Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
I thought that was the end of it.
When my mom came back from her evening stroll, she was upset and questioned me, "You child, Su Xiaoming clearly came back with you too, why did you hide it from me?"
"what?"
Chen Mo was stunned, and tentatively asked, "Has she... come back?"
"You're back."
Mom said, "I ran into your Aunt Wang today. She's the one who told me about it. She even asked me if my fiancé had come over yet and when we're planning to get married."
Chen Mo: "————"
"What, you didn't know?"
Looking at Chen Mo, his mother asked疑惑地问道, "Didn't you come back together?"
"I didn't know she was coming back; she didn't tell me."
Chen Mo could only laugh it off, saying, "I thought she was too busy to come back."
"Look at you, you didn't even know she was back. How can you two be dating like this?"
His mother gave him a somewhat disapproving look.
"I've already spoken to your Aunt Wang and asked her to come over for a meal tomorrow night."
"Mom, this isn't a good idea."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo quickly said, "We've only been dating for a short time, and you're already asking her to come home to meet your parents? She'll most likely be unwilling."
"What do you mean you don't want to?"
Mom said, "Your Aunt Wang asked, and the other party's parents were very happy and invited you to their house for a visit tomorrow at noon."
Chen Mo: "————"
He was completely stunned.
What's going on?
The parents avoided them, and that's how they got in touch?
"Mom, this is too fast!"
Chen Mo tried to struggle.
"What's so fast about it?"
His mother glared at him and said, "How old are you? Su Xiao isn't young either. We're not forcing you to get married right now. What's wrong with meeting each other's parents beforehand?"
Besides, your Aunt Wang said that they took the initiative to ask, how could I refuse?
Anyway, you go to Su Xiao's house tomorrow at noon, and she comes to our house in the evening. That's settled.
Chen Mo knew that saying anything more would be useless.
I had no choice but to nod.
But in his mind, he began to plan how to act out this scene.
On the other side...
Su Xiao is facing the same problem.
""
She originally planned to take some time to go back to her hometown to visit her parents.
As soon as she got home, her mother started asking her all sorts of questions.
"Xiaoxiao, your Aunt Wang told me today that your boyfriend, Chen Mo, came back with you, right?"
""
"Oh, so you're back."
Su Xiao chuckled awkwardly, "He said he also wanted to come back and visit, but I just didn't remember to tell you."
"His mother even invited you to her house for dinner tomorrow night."
Mother Su smiled and said, "I agreed, and I'll also ask Chen Mo to come to our house tomorrow at noon."
Su Xiao felt a headache coming on.
What kind of nonsense is this?!
Back in her room that night, Su Xiao felt increasingly uneasy.
If they actually visit each other's parents, how will things end up?
She couldn't resist taking out her phone and calling Chen Mo.
""
"Feed?"
Chen Mo's voice came through.
"Chen Mo, it's me."
Su Xiao lowered her voice and asked, "Why are you back?"
"I never expected you to come back!"
Chen Mo said somewhat speechlessly, "Now my mom is telling me to come to your house for lunch tomorrow."
"Uh, me too."
Su Xiao said, "My parents want me to come to your house tomorrow night."
"What do we do now?"
Chen Mo asked, "If they really meet the parents, how will they continue the act?"
"I've been thinking about that too."
Chen Mo paused for a moment, then tentatively said, "How about we pretend to have a fight tonight, have a conflict, and break up?"
That way we won't have to go to each other's houses.
"No!"
Su Xiao immediately rejected the idea, saying, "If you say that now, my blind date schedule will be arranged again."
"Do you believe my mom could schedule three shows for me in one day?"
'
'
Chen Mo thought about it and agreed, then asked, "So what do you suggest we do? You can't really go to my house, can you?"
What should we say when your parents pressure us to get married?
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.
"How about we meet and discuss this?"
Su Xiao made the suggestion.
"Okay, where?"
"That bench by the lake in the park."
"Okay, see you in half an hour."
hang up the phone.
Chen Mo greeted his mother and said he was going out for a walk.
Mom didn't ask any more questions.
The park is not far from Chen Mo's home.
He walked there, and it only took him ten minutes to get there.
"They're here."
When Su Xiao saw him, she moved to the side.
"Um."
Chen Mo sat down.
For a moment, neither of them knew how to begin.
"This is such a mess—"
Chen Mo broke the silence first.
"I never expected it to turn out like this."
Su Xiao sighed and said, "How about we do what the parents said and visit each other's homes?"
"what?"
Chen Mo's eyes widened. "You really want to go?"
"Otherwise what?"
Su Xiao said helplessly, "If we say we're not going now, both sets of parents will become suspicious, and that will cause even more trouble later."
"And then what happens after you get there?"
Chen Mo asked, "What if your parents pressure you to get married? How should we answer them?"
"We'll play it by ear."
Su Xiao bit her lip and said, "Anyway, after you go there, no matter what my parents say, you'll insist that you don't want to get married right now."
The reason given was that the conditions were not yet ripe, that they prioritized their careers, and that they wanted to work hard for another year.
My dad values a man's ambition and drive, and I'll support you from the sidelines.
"Alright."
Chen Mo thought about it and realized that this was the only way. He then instructed, "But when you come to our house tonight, please behave a little inappropriately."
"What do you mean by being ignorant?" Su Xiao asked, somewhat puzzled.
Chen Mo said, "It's just that you shouldn't be too diligent, talk less, occasionally say the wrong thing, be a little dramatic, or annoying, okay?"
My mom might even try to persuade me to break up with you.
If the two sets of parents disagree, the matter can be delayed further.
"That's a good idea!"
Su Xiao's eyes lit up, and she said, "Then it's settled."
After discussing it, the two finally felt more confident.
We sat for a while longer and chatted about our recent situations.
When talking about his work, Chen Mo said that he had resigned and was now unemployed.
Su Xiao was very surprised.
Wasn't he just promoted to vice minister?
But I didn't ask any further questions. I just smiled and comforted them, saying something like, "If it's dark in the east, it's bright in the west."
Before leaving, Chen Mo suddenly remembered something and asked, "What do your parents like? I didn't bring you a gift tomorrow. It's my first time visiting, so I can't go empty-handed."
"Need not."
Su Xiao smiled and said, "You can come empty-handed. I'll buy you a gift in advance."
"All right."
Chen Mo asked, "How much money will I transfer to you then?"
"I should pay for the gifts I buy for my parents myself, how could I take your money?"
Su Xiao said, "We're just acting. Do you really think you're the son-in-law who buys gifts for us?"
"Uh, okay."
Seeing that she said that, Chen Mo did not insist any further.
The next morning.
After Chen Mo got up, his mother started urging him to get ready.
"Dress formally, don't dress too casually."
"Okay."
Chen Mo agreed and finally picked out an outfit that his mother thought was decent enough.
As I left at 11:30, my mother reminded me again, "When you arrive at someone's home, be polite and sweet-talking."
"Okay, Mom."
Just as Chen Mo arrived at the other party's building, Su Xiao called.
"Hey, Chen Mo, have you arrived yet?"
"I just got to your house and came downstairs."
"Wait for me a moment, I'll be right there."
"what?"
Before Chen Mo could react, the other party hung up.
Two minutes later, a white BMW stopped at the entrance of the residential area, and Su Xiao got out of the car, carrying two gift boxes in her hands.
"Give."
She handed the gift box to Chen Mo.
"What is this?"
"A gift I prepared for my parents."
Su Xiao smiled and said, "One box is tea, and the other is supplements. Just say you bought them later."
"it is good."
The two walked side by side.
On the way, Su Xiao gave some more instructions.
"My dad likes to play chess, especially Chinese chess. If he lets you play later, you can play a couple of games with him."
"OK."
Chen Mo nodded and said, "But I'm not very good at it."
"It's okay, just a quick shower will do."
Su Xiao said, "My mom talks a lot and might ask a lot of questions, so just say what we discussed yesterday."
"it is good."
As they spoke, the two arrived at Su Xiao's house.
After pressing the doorbell.
It was Su Xiao's mother who opened the door.
An aunt who looks to be in her fifties and has a very good demeanor.
Hello, Auntie.
Chen Mo quickly took the initiative to greet him.
"Hey, Chen Mo's here."
Aunt Su greeted her warmly, "Come in, come in quickly."
"Okay, Auntie."
Chen Mo entered the room, handed over the gift, and said with a smile, "Auntie, this is just a small token of my appreciation."
"Oh, you're here already, why did you bring anything?"
Su's mother took the cup, smiling even more broadly, and said, "Please sit down, please sit down. Xiaoxiao, go and pour Chen Mo some water."
"Okay, Mom."
After entering the house, Chen Mo sat down on the sofa and looked around the living room. It was decorated elegantly, with bookshelves filled with books.
It seems that Su Xiao's literary talent is inherited from her family.
"Old Su, Chen Mo is here."
Su's mother called out towards the study.
Soon, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and with a refined appearance came out from inside.
Hello, Uncle.
Chen Mo quickly stood up.
"Sit down, sit down, don't be shy."
Su's father waved his hand, sat down opposite him, looked Chen Mo up and down a few times, nodded, and said, "I've been looking at your photos for a while now, and I'm finally meeting you in person."
"Forehead."
Chen Mo joked, "I'm probably much uglier in person than in the photos."
""
"No, you look much better than in the photos."
Su's father asked with a smile, "Xiaoxiao told me you work at a software company in Jiangcheng?"
"Yes, I used to work in a tech company as a technician."
Chen Mo replied truthfully, "However, I recently resigned."
"You resigned?"
Mr. Su was somewhat surprised and asked, "Then now—"
"Now I'm planning to do something."
"Oh, I see."
When Su's father heard that the other party wanted to start a business, he frowned and asked Chen Mo, "Do you know how to play chess?"
"I know a little."
"Let's play a couple of rounds of video games after we finish eating."
"it is good."
Chen Mo nodded and smiled, "As long as Uncle doesn't mind the smell of my cooking, it's fine."
At noon, Su Ma quickly prepared a table full of dishes, which was very plentiful.
.
"Chen Mo, eat more."
As Su's mother served Chen Mo food, she said, "Make yourself at home, don't be shy."
"Thank you, Auntie."
During the meal, as expected, Su's mother started asking all sorts of questions.
Chen Mo answered them one by one.
The more questions Su's mother asked, the more satisfied she became.
This young man is good-looking, speaks politely, has a car, and is planning to buy a house.
The conditions are quite good.
"So, when are you planning to get married?"
Finally, she asked the crucial question.
Chen Mo's heart tightened, and he glanced at Su Xiao.
Su Xiao also looked at him nervously.
"Auntie, this... isn't quite ripe yet."
Chen Mo began to answer according to plan: "My career is just starting out. I want to work hard for another year and then consider marriage when my circumstances are better."
"What are you waiting for?"
Su's mother said, "You're all so grown up now, it would be better to settle down sooner rather than later."
"mom----"
Seeing this, Su Xiao spoke up, wanting to lend a hand.
But then Su's father chimed in, saying, "I think Chen Mo makes sense. It's a good thing for men to prioritize their careers."
A man should establish his career before starting a family. Giving Xiaoxiao a better life is a responsible thing to do.
Su's mother: "???"
She looked at her husband, a hint of confusion in her eyes.
That's not what we agreed on before.
But now that her husband is saying the same thing, she can't press him any further, so she has no choice but to give up.
After dinner, as expected, Su's father took out a chess set and said, "Come on, Chen Mo, let's play a couple of games."
"Okay, Uncle."
The two set up a chessboard on the coffee table.
Chen Mo is indeed not very good at chess, but he has insightful skills and an IQ higher than that of ordinary people.
Within the first few moves, Su's father's chess strategy was clear.
So I started to consciously plan ahead.
On the surface, they may appear to be novices, but in reality, every step they take is calculated.
At first, Mr. Su didn't pay much attention, but he realized something was wrong when the game progressed to the middle.
This young man is quite skilled at chess.
Su's father asked with some doubt, "Chen Mo, you really don't know how to play?"
"It's not that I can't do it at all."
Chen Mo nodded and said, "I know a little, but I'm not good at it. I'm far behind my uncle."
'
'
Su's father smiled and didn't say anything more.
But they put even more effort into it!
The two fought back and forth, locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.
Su Xiao watched from the side, surprised.
Her father is a veteran chess enthusiast with a high level of skill, yet Chen Mo was able to play against him to such an extent.
It seems that saying "I'm not very good at it" before was just modesty.
When the game reached its endgame, Chen Mo saw that the timing was right and deliberately made a wrong move, giving Su's father an opportunity.
"General!"
"Uncle is amazing."
Seeing this, Chen Mo resigned and conceded defeat.
"Another plate?"
"it is good."
In the second game, Chen Mo continued to use the same strategy.
They played steadily in the early stages, but started to show weaknesses in the mid-game, and then deliberately lost in the end.
But he lost cleverly, which made Su's father feel a great sense of accomplishment.
"Not bad, not bad."
Su's father was very pleased and said, "It's rare for a young person to be able to do this well."
"Uncle, you flatter me."
Around 3 p.m., Chen Mo realized it was getting late, so he got up to say goodbye, saying, "Uncle and Aunt, I'm going back now."
1
"Okay, drive carefully."
When Su's mother saw him to the door, she quietly pulled him aside and slipped him a red envelope.
"Auntie, this—"
Chen Mo wanted to decline.
"Take it."
Su Ma insisted, "It's the first time we've visited, this is the proper etiquette, otherwise people will gossip about us."
"Oh, thank you, Auntie."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo had no choice but to accept it.
After Su Xiao escorted Chen Mo to the entrance of the residential area, Chen Mo took out the red envelope and said, "Here, take this back."
"Why are you giving this to me?"
"Your mom gave it to me, you can keep it."
"No need, you can keep it."
Su Xiao said with a smile, "Consider it—your performance fee."
Chen Mo said, both amused and exasperated, "Where can you find performance fees this high?"
"fine."
Su Xiao smiled and said meaningfully, "Maybe Auntie will give me more tonight than you will."
"Oh well."
Chen Mo had no choice but to put it away and said, "I've passed this test. It's up to you tonight."
"Yes, I know."
Su Xiao nodded and said, "Just act a little 'immature'."
"right."
Chen Mo cautioned, "But don't go too far, don't overdo it."
"Okay."
Su Xiao waved her hand and said, "You should go back now. See you tonight."
See you tonight.
Su Xiao watched Chen Mo's departing figure, her heart filled with mixed feelings.
The performance is getting more and more realistic, and it feels a bit out of control!
She shook her head, turned and went upstairs.
When she got home, her parents were chatting on the sofa. Seeing her return, Su's mother immediately waved and said, "Xiaoxiao, come here."
Su Xiao walked over and sat down, asking in confusion, "What's wrong, Mom?"
"Chen Mo is a really good kid."
With a smile on her face, Su's mother said, "He looks energetic, speaks well, and is ambitious."
17
"Dad thinks it's good too."
Su's father added, "Although he's currently unemployed and wants to start his own business, which is a bit risky, a person's character is reflected in their chess skills. He plays well and isn't impetuous, so he might actually succeed."
"I have confidence in him."
Su's mother instructed, "When you go to their house for dinner tonight, pay close attention to your words and actions, be diligent, and don't leave a bad impression on their parents."
"Okay."
Su Xiao agreed verbally, but in her heart she was thinking: But Chen Mo wants me to leave a bad impression—
But I can't say that.
