My name is Li Chao, I am 45 years old, I work as a sales manager in a foreign company, and I have a stable income. My wife Ma Mei and I have been married for more than ten years and have a good relationship. We have two sons, the eldest son, Li Ming, is 22 years old this year and has just started working; The youngest son, Li Gang, is 20 years old this year and is still in college.
A few days ago, Li Gang told me that he met a girl at school, and the two have been in love for almost a year, and now he wants to bring his girlfriend home to meet his family. After discussing with Ma Mei, I agreed to let them come back for dinner and meet my future daughter-in-law.
On the weekend, Li Gang took his girlfriend Wang Sisi home as promised. As soon as I opened the door, I saw that Ma Mei had put on her best clothes and cleaned up the room.
"Just now, please sit down with Sister Sisi!" Mame said with a smile.
Li Gang said a little embarrassed: "Mom, this is my girlfriend Wang Sisi, who just came back from studying in the UK." Sisi, this is my mother. ”
"Hello Auntie!" Wang Sisi greeted politely.
"Hello Sister Sisi, please sit down!" Ma Mei warmly beckoned Wang Sisi to sit down on the sofa, and she busily took out various fruit plates and drinks to entertain her.
I also went over to greet Wang Sisi: "Sisi, welcome, welcome! We have just told me about you many times, and today we finally met the real person." ”
Wang Sisi smiled shyly: "Hello uncle and aunt, I'm sorry to disturb you." You also mentioned you to me just now, and said that you are very good to him. ”
"Where, where, you are our honored guest!" Ma Mei hurriedly said, "By the way, just now, when did you and Sister Sisi start their relationship?"
Li Gang said: "During the winter vacation last year, when I went to the library to borrow books, I met Sister Sisi. Later, we found out that she had just returned from studying in the UK, and we started dating. ”
"Really, how are you two getting along?" Mame asked as she peeled an orange.
"That's good. Li Gang said with a smile, "Sister Sisi is very good, and she is also very good at Xi, and she will definitely have a successful career in the future." And we have similar interests and hobbies, often watching movies and traveling together. ”
"That's good, the most important thing for young people to be together now is to understand and trust each other. Ma Mei nodded and handed the peeled orange to Wang Sisi, "Sister Sisi, taste the orange I peeled." ”
"Thank you, Auntie. Wang Sisi took the orange and smiled at Li Gang.
At this time, Li Ming also went home.
As soon as Li Ming entered the door, he couldn't help but look dazed when he saw our family sitting around the living room and a strange beautiful girl sitting next to her.
"Obviously, you're back!" Ma Mei greeted with a smile, "Come and meet your girlfriend just now." ”
Only then did Li Ming react, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "Brother, this is your girlfriend, right?" Hello hello, I am my brother just now, my name is Li Ming. ”
Wang Sisi stood up and shook hands with Li Ming: "Hello, my name is Wang Sisi, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
"Sit down and talk. Ma Mei beckoned Li Ming to sit down, "I just had a good chat with Sister Sisi." ”
After Li Ming sat down, Ma Mei hurriedly brought fruit to entertain him. When I saw her like this, I couldn't help but smile and said, "Wife, we also know Sister Sisi, don't be busy, sit down and chat." ”
"Okay. Mame stopped and sat down.
"By the way, Sister Sisi, what do you do?" Mame asked.
"I just graduated from a British business school and am now working as a management trainee in a foreign company. Wang Sisi replied.
"Oh, then you're going to be a professional strong woman in the future, right?" Mame said with a smile, "You have to work hard, and you have to help with the family responsibilities that you just shared in the future." ”
"Mom, we haven't graduated yet, you think so far!" Li Gang was a little embarrassed.
"Haha, your mom just likes to worry about it. I said, "I'm still young with Sister Sisi just now, so let's fall in love now." ”
"Yes, yes, the important thing is the emotional foundation. Ma Mei also said, "I see that the two of you have a good relationship, and that's enough." If there is anything in the future, we can do it step by step. ”
"Thank you, uncle and aunt. Wang Sisi said.
"Auntie, don't worry, I'll take care of Sisi. Li Gang also said.
"Alright, let's talk, I'll go to the kitchen and prepare the meal. Mame stood up, "Let's have a good meal and celebrate the further step in your relationship." ”
"Thank you so much, Auntie!" Wang Sisi said.
"No thanks, no thanks, as it should be. Mame smiled and went to the kitchen.
Li Ming looked at Li Gang and Wang Sisi, and also joked with me: "Brother, it seems that you have found a good girlfriend, and my mother is so satisfied." ”
Li Gang smiled and said, "Yes, I have to thank Sister Sisi for taking a fancy to me." ”
"Whereever, where, I just want to thank you for just being so good. Wang Sisi also said with a smile.
The three young people chatted, and the atmosphere was warm and cheerful. Ma Mei and I watched from the sidelines, and we also felt that time flies so fast, and the children have grown up.
After a while, Ma Mei came out of the kitchen and said to me, "Husband, can you help me go to the supermarket to buy something?" ”
"Okay, I'll go. I stood up and said to Li Gang and them, "You talk, I'll go buy something and come back soon." ”
"Okay uncle, be careful on the road. Wang Sisi said.
I went out to the nearby supermarket and bought a few spices that Mamei asked me to buy, and bought some more fruit. After checking out, I was pushing my shopping cart back when I suddenly saw an event going on at a furniture store, so I went in to take a look.
I walked around the store and saw a delicate desk, and suddenly thought that Li Gang was about to get married, so it was better to take this opportunity to buy this desk and give it to him as a wedding gift. So I paid and shipped the desk home.
"Husband, what did you buy?" Mame was a little surprised to see a large box I had brought in.
"This is a wedding gift for me. I said to Mame with a smile.
"A wedding present?" Ma Mei looked dazed, "They have only known each other for a few months, and they haven't graduated yet, so you are preparing gifts?"
"Haha, I'm just going to prepare it first, and I'll use it in the future anyway. I laughed.
At this time, Li Gang and Wang Sisi also came to the living room and saw us talking.
"Mom, Dad, what are you talking about?" Li Gang asked curiously.
"It's nothing, your dad bought a gift and put it away, saying that he was going to give it to you for marriage. Mame said with a smile.
Li Gang and Wang Sisi were a little embarrassed when they heard this.
"Uncle, we haven't graduated yet, so you're going to prepare gifts, it's too early. Wang Sisi said.
"Haha, not sooner, not early, anyway, I will always use it in the future. I smiled and said, "I'll plan for you first." ”
"Dad, thank you for your kindness. Li Gang said, "But we are still in the stage of love, and it is too early to get married." We'll talk to you then. ”
"Okay, you're right. I smiled and said, "I'm just an anxious old man, you young people have to come at your own pace." ”
"Yes, yes, listen to what you just said, don't be pushed too anxious by your dad. Mame also said, "The most important thing is that you slowly develop your relationship." ”
"Got it, Mom, you and Dad don't worry about us. Li Gang said.
By this time, the aroma of the meal had wafted out.
"Come on, let's eat. Mame beckoned everyone to sit down at the table.
"Auntie, the food smells good. Wang Sisi said.
"Yes, Mom, you made the best food. Li Ming also said.
"Come, Sister Sisi, try this, it's my specialty. Ma Mei smiled and pushed a dish to Wang Sisi.
Our family had a happy meal. Ma Mei chatted with Wang Sisi while eating, and the atmosphere was very lively.
"Sister Sisi, I just heard that you just came back from studying in the UK, you must have experienced a lot. "Come, tell Auntie about your life in England." ”
"Yes, Sister Sisi is so powerful!" Li Gang also said.
"Haha, no, I'm just an ordinary student over there. Wang Sisi said modestly.
"Okay, we're full, let's go to the living room and watch a movie together. Li Ming proposed.
"Okay, it just so happens that a new movie is coming out today. Li Gang said.
So a few of us finished eating, sat down on the sofa in the living room together, and started watching a new comedy movie.
In the process of watching the movie, I saw Li Gang and Wang Sisi whispering and laughing from time to time. Ma Mei also saw it and made a look at me, as if to say, "Young people, young couples in love are like this."
After the movie ended, it was already early. Wang Sisi looked at the time and said, "It's not too early, I should go back." Thank you so much for your hospitality today, aunts and uncles. ”
"No, no, you're part of our family. Ma Mei smiled and said, "I'm so glad that you can come to our house today and let us know you better." ”
"I'm also very happy to be able to visit my aunt and uncle today. Wang Sisi said, "You made me feel the warmth of home." ”
"Sister Sisi, I'll send you back. Li Gang said.
"Okay, then we'll go first. Goodbye, uncle and aunt!" Wang Sisi waved goodbye to us.
"Goodbye and stay safe!" Mame and I waved to them.
After Li Gang and Wang Sisi left, Ma Mei's face was still filled with a smile of joy.
"Husband, look, what a girlfriend our son is looking for!" Ma Mei said happily, "She is beautiful, has excellent grades, and is polite and modest." ”
"yes, a nice girl indeed. I said, "I was happy with her just now." ”
"In the future, we must care more about them and help them. "I've already started to imagine their wedding, it must be lively and grand!"
"Okay wife, they've only been in a relationship for more than a year. I reassured, "Let them take their time with the wedding." ”
"yes, I'm in a hurry again. Ma Mei smiled and said, "But I've already started to think about preparing a very thoughtful gift for Sister Sisi." ”
"You're going to be foolish. I smiled and shook my head, "Let's go, pack up and go to bed, I've been tired all day today." ”
"Okay, you're right. Mame nodded.
"What are you anxious about?" I advised, "The children are still young, let's talk about marriage later." ”
"I just want to prepare in advance and help Sister Sisi reduce her burden when the time comes. Ma Mei said, "I have already thought about it, this dowry must be made beautifully and practically, so that Sister Sisi can feel my heart." ”
Seeing her high spirits, I no longer dissuaded her, and said with a smile: "Okay, just be happy." I'm sure that no matter what you prepare, just now and Sisi will be grateful to you. ”
"Then I'm going to get busy!" Mame happily went out.
I looked at her back and felt her intentions as a wife and mother.
Around noon, Ma Mei returned happily, carrying a number of shopping bags.
"Husband, I've bought all the materials, these fabrics feel very good, and they must be beautiful when they are made into clothes. Mame said to me with a smile.
"It's good if you're happy. I said, "I've made a snack, let's have lunch together." ”
"Okay. Mame washed her hands and sat down to eat.
"By the way, husband," Ma Mei said while eating, "I want to prepare a complete dowry for Sister Sisi, not only clothes, but also jewelry, shoes, etc." Our family conditions are good, so let's prepare well to make our lives happier with Sisi. ”
"You have a point. I nodded, "It's just that it's too early, let's not put too much pressure on the kids." ”
"I know, so I'm not in a hurry to give them when I'm ready, just put it at home first. "I'm just trying to think more about them." ”
"Okay, if you're happy. I said.
After lunch, Ma Mei began to get busy. She first took out the fabric she bought, compared and designed it repeatedly, and then began to sew it by hand.
I took a look at Ma Mei's cheongsam, and it was indeed elegantly made, and the style was also elegant and beautiful.
"Well done!" I complimented.
"Isn't it? I can't wait for Sister Sisi to try it on. Mame said happily.
"But it's better not to show these things to the children now. I reminded Mame, "so as not to stress them." ”
"You're right, I'll collect it when I'm done. Mame nodded, "I'll do the rest first!"
So Mame continued to work and made shoes and jewelry in the dowry. I look at her like this, and I am sincerely glad to have such a wife.
After a month or so, Mame finally finished a complete set of dowry.
"Husband, come and see, it's all done!" One day Mamei excitedly called me over.
I saw her lining up all kinds of clothes, shoes, and jewelry, and the whole dowry gift box was exquisite and atmospheric.
