"It's good to be back. Are you suffering outside?"
"No, my parents are very good to me and have never treated me badly. My brothers and sisters are also very harmonious and take good care of me. I am very lucky and happy." Ye Qingning subconsciously protected everyone in the Ye family.
After Chen Nian paused, Han Yu pulled the corner of his clothes and stood in front of him.
"Qing Ning, don't get me wrong. He is just a stupid person. I went to your mother's concert and had the honor to talk to her once. During the chat, she mentioned you. It was obvious at that time that Mrs. Jiang loved you very much. , proud of you.”
Ye Qingning was not angry because of Chen Nian's words. She could tell whether the other party was concerned or deliberately making things difficult.
"Qingning, don't get me wrong." Chen Nian was a little embarrassed.
"I understand, these are the gifts that my mother has been busy picking out for a week. Don't dislike it, uncle and aunt." Ye Qingning put on a decent smile and handed the gifts to Chen Nian with both hands.
"How come, we will definitely come to visit you some other day to thank Mr. and Mrs. Ye, right?"
"Yes, I must go." Chen Nian immediately agreed.
"Is this Sister Qingyao?" Ye Qingning changed the subject.
"Yes, yes, yes." Chen Qingyao saw that cue had caught her, pushed Han Qingqiu away, stepped forward and held Ye Qingning's hand, her eyes seemed to be filled with stars. "Just call me sister like Han Qingqiu. Can I call you Ningning?"
"sure."
Chen Qingyao looked at Ye Qingning's fair and tender face and smiled so brightly that her heart was filled with joy. With her height of 1.7 meters, standing next to Ye Qingning, she made the latter look even more petite.
She held Ye Qingning's arm, looking like they had known each other eight hundred years ago. Ye Qingning didn't like close contact with people, but maybe things like blood ties were wonderful in themselves, and Ye Qingning didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
When he was about to say something, there was a muffled sound from the door, like the sound of a stick hitting the ground.
When they looked at each other, they saw that it was the old man and the old lady.
"The old man and the old lady can't wait any longer. Let's go in first and talk later." Only then did several people realize that they had been delayed in the yard for too long.
Han Yu greeted several people into the room, and Han Qingqiu acted as a bag-carrying boy very wisely.
Ye Qingning looked at the hard-working and uncomplaining appearance of this glamorous and highly sought-after star, and wondered how Tang Tang would feel when he saw this scene.
"Seeing that none of you are coming in, I thought something had happened." The old lady's tone did not contain condemnation, but instead contained love for the juniors.
"It's my fault that I was so excited to see Qing Ning that I dragged her to the door and chatted for a long time." Chen Nian consciously took the blame and made everyone laugh. The children didn't understand, but they also followed the fun. It was lively and lively. With the clothes of the elders, it had a New Year atmosphere.
"The house has been quiet for too long, and it finally gained some popularity." The old lady sighed.
They only have a pair of children, their son is away, and their daughter... All year round, the Chen family is quiet. It was only after Xiaotuanzi was born that there was a lively atmosphere during the New Year.
"Okay, let's not talk about this today." Chen Wenxiong brought the topic back to normal. Li Lanxin also knew that these words were inappropriate and did not speak again.
"Ning Yatou, I'm sorry that I can't recognize you Fengfeng Guangguang. It's because I, an old man, didn't do this well. I'll apologize to you here."
Chen Wenxiong said, stood up and bowed to Ye Qingning. Ye Qingning quickly stood up and moved away, supporting the old man.
"Grandpa, I understand, you don't have to do this."
"You are a good boy. You are willing to call me grandpa after knowing the situation. Good boy." Chen Wenxiong patted Ye Qingning's hand.
"Ning Yatou, you put this on." Li Lanxin opened the wooden box in her hand, and inside was a crystal clear jadeite.
"This is too expensive." Ye Qingning shook his head.
"Be obedient and accept it." Li Lanxin took Ye Qingning's hand and put it on Ye Qingning easily.
"This is your mother...that is, the song my sister clamored for when she was a child. Your grandmother made an agreement with her to give it to her when she gets married..." Needless to say, everyone understood the next words.
Ye Qingning touched the bracelet and looked at Li Lanxin.
"Thank you grandma, Qingning likes it very much."
Whether it was an illusion or not, Ye Qingning seemed to see tears in the corners of Li Lanxin's eyes. She still wanted to see clearly, and Han Yu spoke.
"It's almost time, parents. Let's take Qing Ning to pay homage to our ancestors and recognize them. Don't let the children get hungry while chatting."
"Yes, it is more important to recognize your ancestors first."
The Chen family is a family of scholars, and some rules are still preserved. There was a room in the house dedicated to worshiping ancestors. Ye Qingning lit incense and bowed, and then served tea to the two old people according to the ceremony. Finally, Chen Wenxiong wrote Qingning's name into the family tree. This was considered a family recognition banquet. finished.
"Don't mention it, Qing Ning is a good name. We happen to be of the Qing generation. Not to mention that the three of us look very much alike. With this name alone, no one can say that you are lucky. Three good grandchildren in a row.”
Chen Qingyao was accustomed to talking, and she made the two elderly people happy with just these words. Xiaotuanzi inherited his mother's name, and one big and one small livened up the atmosphere, making the simple recognition banquet particularly lively and warm.
The recognition banquet was simple, but Ye Qingning thought it was just right. She pays more attention to the other party's attitude than the noisy and purposeful banquet. A dinner table, everyone sitting together, this simple little happiness is what she really wants.
She is in the vanity fair, and her every move affects not her personally, but the entire Ye family. Therefore, in front of outsiders, she has a cold and indifferent temperament, and does not allow herself to make any mistakes and lose the pride of the Ye family. She only acts coquettishly and feels uneasy around her family members. This is because she cares about her family and loves her family.
She is the guardian of the family, responsible for keeping everyone together and protecting against outside aggression. In front of her family, she is a beloved little princess. In front of outsiders, she is the most loyal guard.
Now, she has another place she wants to protect.
There is plenty of food and wine, and everyone is doing their best.
Chen Qingyao took Ye Qingning to take many photos. According to her words, "My family is full of boys. I finally found someone I can chat with. My idol turns out to be my sister. Do you know how excited I am!"
Ye Qingning was so shaken by her that she felt dizzy, and at the same time he could clearly feel her enthusiasm and excitement.
Ye Qingning stayed at Chen's house throughout the afternoon. When night fell, Ye Qingning saw that the time was almost up and planned to go back.
"It's so fast, why don't you." Chen Qingyao took Ye Qingning's hand and shook it. She was 1.7 meters tall and leaned on Ye Qingning's shoulder. She couldn't tell which one was the elder sister and which one was the younger sister.
But this is also the charm of Ye Qingning.
In the end, Chen Qingyao's husband looked down on her and put her in the car. It can be seen that the couple has a good relationship. Chen Qingyao has a carefree personality and looks like a pretty little woman nestled in her husband's arms.
Chen Wenxiong pulled Ye Qingning to play chess all afternoon, and he was reluctant to leave at this moment, hoping that she would stay the night. Ye Qingning found it funny and refused because he didn't bring any clothes, and promised them that he would come over every weekend to chat with them.
Now Xiaotuanzi was dissatisfied again. He said he wanted to live at his grandparents' house, so his father took him away and put him in the car. After the family greeted Ye Qingning, they left first.
"This guy just doesn't want to go to school." Han Qingqiu explained with a smile.
Ye Qingning smiled but said nothing.
"How is the performance of the song you agreed on earlier?"
Ye Qingning nodded, "Some things were delayed before, but it's still in time."
"Okay, see you next week." Seeing a car parked at the door, Han Qingqiu said no more. "Someone's here to pick you up."
Ye Qingning said goodbye to the five people one by one and turned to get in the car. Ye Ke came down to help her open the car door, and Ye An, Ye Qi, and Ye Lin also got out of the car and waved to him.
"Girl Ning, you have a very good family." Chen Wenxiong was very pleased.
Ye Qingning had a smile on his face. Different from the polite and distant look at the beginning, that smile was warm and dazzling.
"Well, I have a family that loves me very much, and I love them very much."
