Chapter 136 Mother Xia is a little worried
A person who is meticulous is shown in the care he puts into everything he does.
When Cui Jinsong left with his family, he did not go directly back to the residential complex where he lived.
Instead, he took the family to a restaurant that looked simple but served authentic food.
Fearing that the two elderly people would feel uncomfortable, he was vague about the concept, but he also spoke appropriately, "Uncle and aunt, Xia Qing helped me a lot at work before, and she asked me to take care of you. I should have taken you two to a good restaurant, but I'm ashamed that I didn't make a reservation in advance. I'm sorry for not taking good care of you. Please forgive me. Let's have some home-cooked meals in this little restaurant today. It may be small, but the food is really good."
This is a private restaurant. Although it looks unremarkable from the outside, the food inside is very good and not cheap.
He said that deliberately in order to prevent them from having a psychological burden.
Xia Qing's parents had long regarded this well-spoken and gentle young man as their own nephew.
"Oh, why did you say that? We don't need to go to those fancy restaurants. They're too expensive and may not be delicious. Let's just eat something economical."
"Yeah, let's just eat something."
Cui Jinsong smiled and said "OK".
The group of four ordered six dishes. Cui Jinsong wanted to order more, but was stopped by Xia Qing's parents.
They saw the menu and it was ridiculously expensive.
No matter how much you treat someone as a stranger, you can't let them spend money like this. When the meal was almost over, Xia Qing's mother winked at her brother. She was afraid that Xia Qing's father would not pay, so she secretly asked her brother to pay the bill while going to the bathroom.
However, the marriage was not completed when my brother came back.
The waiter said that Cui Jinsong was a regular customer of this store. He had a credit card and all the bills were paid by him.
After dinner, we got in the car.
Xia Qing's mother insisted on giving the meal money to Cui Jinsong. Of course, Cui Jinsong refused to take it, but Xia Qing's parents and family were not willing to accept such a spendthrift Cui Jinsong, so they insisted on giving it to him.
We argued for a long time in the car. Of course, it wasn't a quarrel. We were both too polite.
Finally, Cui Jinsong saw that they really had an attitude of not giving in unless they accepted it, and at the same time he was moved by their simplicity, so he thought of a compromise.
"Auntie, I heard from Xia Qing that you are a very good cook. Why don't I shamelessly invite you to have a few of your specialties when you are free?" In fact, he had never heard Xia Qing say that. How could Xia Qing tell him about her parents at home?
He only guessed that Xia Qing's mother must be a good cook when he heard that she was worried that Xia Qing would not be able to get used to the hospital food and wanted to deliver meals to her daughter every day.
These words seemed like a request, but they finally resolved the dispute and were a satisfactory result for both parties.
Xia Qing's mother was satisfied because she could finally do something she was good at to thank the young man.
Cui Jinsong was pleased that Xia Qing's mother had finally stopped being so polite and insistent on giving him money. He really couldn't stand this kind of behavior. And since he might get oral medication in the future, he was also very satisfied.
The group then went back happily.
Cui Jinsong first sent Xia Qing's mother to Xia Qing's bedroom. Since Xia Qing had greeted Miaomiao in advance, there was no problem.
Cui Jinsong took the father and son downstairs to his house.
Xia Qing's mother was worried, so she came along to clean up. Seeing how clean and tidy Cui Jinsong's residence was as a single man, she had a better impression of him.
After helping to clean up, Xia Qing's mother came out and hugged her.
Of course, Xia Qing's mother first praised Miao Miao and thanked her for taking care of Xia Qing. Xia Qing was alone outside and had these friends who could lend a hand when her daughter was in trouble. She was really grateful from the bottom of her heart.
Miaomiao felt embarrassed after hearing all the thanks and praise.
"Auntie, Qingqing and I are roommates, so we should help each other. Even if something happens to me, Xia Qing will not ignore me." Miaomiao didn't think it was a big deal, but she was moved by her aunt's gratitude.
"Yes, you are right. Qingqing, you and I should help each other. If you have any problems, Qingqing and auntie will help you." Xia Qing's mother was not pretentious. What she said was a promise she made.
An old man and a young boy were chatting animatedly.
Xia Qing's mother went from caring about Xia Qing's daily life to caring about Miaomiao's daily life, making Miaomiao feel the warmth of maternal love.
The two of them also got along well.
Before they knew it, they were talking about Cui Jinsong. Although Miaomiao didn't know much, she definitely knew more than Xia Qing's mother.
Thinking that Xia Qing's mother was not an outsider, she said everything she should and shouldn't say.
"Cui Jinsong is single...", "Xia Qing will have contact with Cui Jinsong at work...", "Cui Jinsong likes Xia Qing..."
Did Xia Qing's mother's eyes light up when she heard this? She could actually see that Cui Jinsong was very caring towards Xia Qing, but maybe Cui Jinsong looked at Xia Qing with restraint, and maintained an appropriate scale for their kindness so that Xia Qing would not be disgusted, so she thought that there was nothing wrong between them, and that they were just good friends and good work partners.
It was not until Miaomiao said that Cui Jinsong had confessed his feelings to her and was rejected by Xia Qing as a joke that Xia Qing's mother sighed.
You know your own daughter.
A few years ago, Xia Qing brought that boy back home, and the whole family saw how much Xia Qing liked him.
Their daughter was very happy at that time, and they also hoped that the two of them would eventually be able to have a happy marriage.
But things are unpredictable. When Xia Qing came back one time and said she had broken up with that boy, they thought it was just a quarrel between a couple and it would be fine in a few days.
However, as Xia Qing resigned from her job, closed her online store and focused on taking the college entrance examination, and always came back alone, they realized that the boy had really broken up with her.
As parents, they felt sorry for their child, but they didn't dare ask in detail for fear of causing her sadness again.
I can only support her silently and support her unconditionally no matter what she does.
I've asked her tentatively over the years, but Xia Qing always declined with excuses such as being busy with work or not having a suitable one.
I know my daughter is really hurt.
In addition to caring for her, they also agreed to her wishes and let her be alone. Even if their daughter never got married, they would be able to support her.
It would be fine if I didn't know, but now that I know, I can put it to rest. In Xia Qing's mother's opinion, Cui Jinsong gives people a sense of solidity and reliability both in appearance and in his behavior.
Perhaps the only shortcoming of this young man is that he is a few years older than Xia Qing, but age has never been a problem in their generation.
The problem still lies with Xia Qing. If she doesn't like someone, no matter how good the other person is, she won't be able to accept him.
