Chapter 528: Dad Li: You Are Marrying Up! Dad Zhou: No, It’s My Family that Is Marrying Up! [Please Give Me a Monthly Pass]

"Wow, there are so many delicious foods. I hope Sister Zhou's parents can come every day!"

In the courtyard of the B&B, Mu Guiying led her little follower Zhao Xue and couldn't help swallowing their saliva when looking at the ingredients prepared by Li Yu. For example, the king crab that was bigger than a washbasin, if it was steamed, it would definitely taste great!

Zhao Xue said with a smile:

"If they see you and His Royal Highness the Holy Son holding hands, will His Majesty the Third Mother be afraid?"

Mu Guiying's expression froze, and then she said stubbornly:

"I just come here to eat. Sister Zhou's parents control everything. They won't stop me from spending money on food, right?"

After that, she took out a gold cake from her pocket:

"One gold cake for a meal, this price is generous enough, right?"

That's right, I am just an ordinary tourist who can eat a little bit, and my husband and I are just... just a pure relationship between men and women!

This girl was proud for a while, and then she started thinking about lunch again.

Stewed goose is indispensable. This is the main dish of the homestay. Many tourists who stay here say it is delicious, especially the pancakes with pot stickers, which are so fragrant!

Seafood can be steamed or seasoned with pepper and salt. Anyway, it is delicious no matter how you eat it.

I must take a short video when it is done. While the master can't come, I will give it to her for discussion to see if there is anything else that needs to be added. It is really not to make her angry!

In the kitchen, Li Yu tied an apron and started to work.

Zhou Ruotong's family arrived at noon, and they had to deal with the dishes quickly. They should be cooked, stewed, and marinated, so as not to delay lunch.

The wild rabbit sent by Qin Qiong was chopped into small pieces and marinated. The turtle had to be slaughtered. Zhou Ruotong's grandfather came today, just in time to supplement the old man.

After dealing with these, Li Yu slaughtered the big rooster and goose bought in the village, and marinated them with green onions and ginger.

The rooster is fried, and the goose is stewed in an iron pot. Then chop the mutton sent by Lu Bu into large pieces and stew it with astragalus in a casserole to make astragalus mutton stew. It is delicious.

While he was busy, Zhou Ruotong called:

"My parents' high-speed train arrives at 11 o'clock. When will my father-in-law and mother-in-law arrive?"

"Ten forty, no delay, I will drive to the high-speed rail station to pick them up."

"Okay, this time my parents and grandfather and second uncle will come from Beijing. On the archaeological team side, several of my grandfather's students will come to our house for dinner, and they will also hold a welcome banquet in the city in the evening."

Grandpa Zhou is a leading figure in both the history circle and the archaeological circle. Now that he comes to Yinzhou, the archaeological team, the Cultural Relics Bureau, the Yinxu Scenic Area, the Cultural and Tourism Bureau and other units will come to visit.

In addition, the Oracle Bone Script Research Center where Zhou Ruotong is located also needs the old man to appear on the stage.

Li Yu smiled and said:

"I thought the four kind and righteous brothers would all come."

"My eldest uncle and my fourth uncle wanted to come too, but their unit organized an activity to re-walk the thousand-year-old Shu Road, and some stone carvings were found near Hanzhong, so they both went to Qinling Mountains."

The history of Shu Road is indeed profound enough, and anyone who studies history will not miss the opportunity to study Shu Road.

For thousands of years, from the earliest Western Zhou Dynasty's attack on Shu, to the Qin State's entry into Sichuan, to Liu Bang's secret crossing of Chencang to take Guanzhong, Liu Bei's claiming of the throne in Yizhou, Zhong Hui's attack on Shu, the Sui Dynasty's rule over Shu, Li Tang's seizure of Bashu, Xuanzong's escape to Chengdu, Zhao Kuangyin's destruction of Hou Shu...

These major historical events, one by one, are all related to Shu Road, and even clues can be found on those roads that have been walked for thousands of years.

An unintentional cliff carving may contain great research value.

An inconspicuous chisel mark may be related to a sensational historical event.

Many historians have said that the Shu Road is a book that compresses thousands of years of history. It is always new to read, and new historical clues can be found every time you conduct field surveys.

Li Yu asked:

"When we go back to Sichuan from the Three Kingdoms, should we ask Lu Bu to take more videos and photos?"

"No, many traces have been changed again and again, especially after the Song Dynasty, the Shu Road has undergone several major changes and it is no longer in shape."

The couple agreed to meet at the high-speed rail station and ended the call.

Just as Li Yu was about to continue working, Yuwen Chengdu came from the foot of the mountain on an electric car and brought a lot of wild vegetables, some of which Li Yu couldn't even name.

"Director Wang in the village heard that the family of the master's wife was coming, so he asked me to bring it here."

Good guy, all the delicacies from the mountains and the sea are included today.

Li Yu was busy until ten o'clock, then he went upstairs to change his clothes, drove to the high-speed rail station, and went with Zhou Ruotong to pick up the elders of both sides.

When Zhou Ruotong arrived, she brought two bouquets of flowers, one for her mother-in-law Zhang Ping and one for her mother Zhao Peimin.

Today, Zhou Ruotong wore a slim-fitting white knitted T-shirt and black trousers, showing off her beautiful figure and making her legs look particularly long.

"Wife, you look really good in this outfit."

As soon as they met, Li Yu complimented her and took out the Zhizhi Yangmei he bought on the road for Professor Zhou to cool off.

The two of them came to the exit together. Li Yu looked at the time and turned to Zhou Ruotong and asked:

"Are you safe when you go to the world in the book? Will those two old men secretly attack you?"

"No, I'm not the one who escaped. I'm not as important as you, and my mother-in-law has already made some arrangements. When the time comes, Guiying will take me to Mu Ke Village first. As soon as I enter, I will be included in the Shanhe Shejitu, and then go to the Wahuang Palace from there... While the queen is operating these, she will also place several fake me in various worlds to attract Zhunti and Yuanshi Tianzun to take action."

In fact, I am not the one who escaped... Li Yu regretted that he added so many dramas to himself, so that he could not go to the book world for his honeymoon with his wife.

I hope that Baobao Tong will not be interested in cultivating immortals, so as to avoid the embarrassing situation of "running away for half a month and coming back as a golden immortal". He will not be able to defeat her by then.

Professor Zhou snuggled next to Li Yu and drank milk tea happily. He had already asked for leave when he first arrived. He would not go to work in the afternoon and would accompany his mother and mother-in-law to the scenic spot to pay homage to another mother-in-law.

No, it should be the two mothers-in-law, and Empress Houtu must be there too.

With four mothers watching over him, not only did someone become a mama's boy, but Professor Zhou himself also became a mama's girl.

Not long after, Zhang Ping and Li Xinjian each dragged a suitcase and came out through the gate at the exit.

Zhou Ruotong quickly sent flowers, and Li Yu also brought out milk tea for his mother.

Zhang Ping took the flowers and said:

"My daughter-in-law is really discerning. I like carnations the most... Brat, did you buy this milk tea? I get a headache when I see the word "full of sugar".

"If you don't like it, give it to my dad. He doesn't mind that it's full of sugar."

"Forget it, for Tongtong's sake, I won't argue with you so much."

Although Zhang Ping said she disliked her son, she grinned with joy when she saw her son and daughter-in-law standing together.

She took out her mobile phone and took a photo of Li Yu and Zhou Ruotong, as well as the flowers and milk tea in her hands. She originally wanted to take a photo of her son and daughter-in-law, but she found that her son and daughter-in-law were so good-looking that they didn't even need to take a photo. Same, I sent it directly to Moments:

"Back home in Yinzhou, as soon as I got off the high-speed train, I received flowers bought by my daughter-in-law and milk tea bought by my son. No wonder those celebrities like to be picked up at the station. It feels so good to have someone waiting for me when I get off the train."

It seems to be a sentiment, but everywhere he shows off his son and daughter-in-law.

In order to prevent everyone from pretending not to see it, Zhang Ping posted it again in several frequently active WeChat groups.

Li Yu had a headache:

"Mom, you are so arrogant, aren't you afraid that the group leader will kick you out?"

"Don't be afraid, because I am the owner of these groups... Is it wrong that my son is handsome and my daughter-in-law is beautiful? They can also show off their sons, daughters-in-law, daughters-in-law, and I don't stop them."

You are really my biological mother... Li Yu sighed with emotion. Thinking of the renovation of the old village of Shitou Village on the top of the mountain, he asked his father Li Xinjian:

"Dad, I plan to transform the abandoned village on the top of the mountain into residential buildings. Do you have any experience in this area?"

For this kind of thing, it would be more appropriate to hire a professional architectural designer. After all, my father is also an old expert from the Provincial Design Institute and is very experienced in design.

Li Xinjian was really interested:

"Do you have any photos? I'll take a closer look first."

Li Yu quickly took out his mobile phone, opened the photo album, and showed the stone houses on the top of the mountain one by one.

As soon as he saw those houses made of pure stone, Li Xinjian couldn't help but put on his glasses:

"This is a typical Taihang Mountain village house. There are few overhangs. The style is relatively subtle and practical. Most of them use strips of stone and rubble as building materials... After lunch, I went up to take a look. As long as the main structure is OK, these houses can still be renovated. Very simple."

While the father and son were chatting, Pang Donghai and his wife also came to pick them up.

Zhou Yongnian is not only Pang Donghai's teacher, but also his career guide. Now that the old man comes to Yinzhou, he will come to pick him up both emotionally and rationally.

"Hello Aunt Qi, this is my father-in-law, this is my mother-in-law, and this is my boyfriend Li Yu."

Zhou Ruotong made the introduction, and Li Yu quickly said hello and handed over his share of milk tea that he had not yet opened. Qi Yanhui took it in her hand and said with a smile:

"No wonder she hasn't seen her after introducing her to Tongtong before. It turns out there is such a handsome boyfriend waiting for her."

Zhang Ping quickly became humble:

"It was because of our great luck that Xiaoyu found a girlfriend as good as Tongtong. I often wonder if this brat saved the galaxy in his previous life. Otherwise, why would he have met Tongtong?"

He was not the one who saved in the previous life, but was saving now... Zhou Ruotong took a sip of milk tea and felt that her mother-in-law's words were funny and pleasant. With such a mother-in-law, she would never be able to quarrel in her entire life.

When the elders of the Zhou family came over, Zhou Ruotong presented flowers, Li Yu presented milk tea, and Pang Donghai also took out a brand new thermos cup, which contained hot tea for Mr. Zhou.

Everyone exchanged polite greetings and headed to the parking lot together.

On the way, Qi Yanhui walked beside Zhao Peimin and whispered:

"Teacher Zhao, your Tongtong has really found a perfect son-in-law. With his looks and temperament, he is pleasing to the eye."

Zhao Peimin is also very satisfied with her son-in-law:

"When Tongtong just graduated, her relatives were trying to introduce her to a partner, but I didn't agree. The child has to let her find a partner on her own, and parents can't interfere too much."

Zhao Peimin also became more enthusiastic about her daughter's success and talked about parenting with Qi Yanhui. She completely forgot about asking relatives to help arrange blind dates during the Spring Festival.

Arriving at the parking lot, Zhou Bingren took Zhou Ruotong's car key and began to allocate cars:

"Xiaoyu and Tongtong drove to prepare lunch. Second brother, you take our father in Donghai's car, and we and our in-laws share a car and talk about some family matters."

You must seize such a perfect son-in-law, and since both parties are quite satisfied, don't wait any longer and finalize the engagement as soon as possible.

Li Yu loaded all the luggage of the elders on both sides into his car, then got in the car with Tong Baobao and prepared to leave:

"I was thinking about trying us on the way, but I didn't expect them to bypass us and talk directly. It was a false alarm."

Zhou Ruotong fastened his seat belt and asked with a smile:

"Are you worried about the gift from our family?"

"I'm not afraid of the gift, but I'm mainly worried about the house. I don't have the qualifications to buy a house in Beijing, and I always feel sorry for you if I don't get a house in Beijing."

Zhou Ruotong shook his hand and said:

"Don't say that. You let me see such a magnificent world, which is more precious than any house."

The couple drove back to the scenic spot along the ring highway to prepare for the welcoming banquet.

In the Maybach Defender, Zhou Bingren adjusted the seat and steering wheel according to his driving habits, then started the car and followed Pang Donghai out of the high-speed railway station parking lot.

After turning onto the ring road, he took the initiative to talk about business:

"I am very satisfied with Xiaoyu. If you have no objection, let's settle the marriage of the two children this time. If Tongtong is not sensible, please bear with me."

Li Xinjian, who was sitting on the passenger seat, said quickly:

"I am satisfied, very satisfied. It is really a privilege for our Li family to meet Tongtong... I just wanted to talk about engagement at the station, but I was worried that our family could not afford it."

Zhou Bingren smiled:

"Brother, you are so modest. Just for the gifts Xiaoyu gave us, it is also a privilege for our Zhou family."

Gifts?

What gifts?

Li Xinjian was puzzled, and Zhang Ping, who was sitting in the back seat, was also confused.

Zhao Peimin was no longer afraid of the high calories and happily drank the milk tea bought by her son-in-law:

"We are all family, so let's not talk about whether we are related or not. We don't want any three gold jewelry. The so-called engagement is to sit down and have a meal. What do you think, mother-in-law?"

Zhang Ping patted her shoulder bag and said:

"We like to give red envelopes here. I have prepared a small red envelope for Tongtong. Don't refuse it, mother-in-law... When you get engaged in Central Plains, you have to follow the rules here."

The engagement red envelope is not big, 10,000 yuan, symbolizing one in a million, and some jewelry.

Zhao Peimin was a little surprised:

"Engagement is one in a million, what about marriage?"

"More than 100,000 yuan, now many people get engaged for tens of thousands of yuan, the betrothal gift is 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, and there must be a fully paid house in the city... Xiaoyu's father and I have discussed that the engagement red envelope and betrothal gift will be the same as the mainstream, and the rest of the money will be given to Tongtong and Xiaoyu, and they will try to buy a house in Beijing."

The houses in Beijing are sky-high. A few days ago, Zhang Ping checked and found that the money she and Lao Li saved for half a lifetime was not enough for the down payment of a house.

If the in-laws don't mind, the two sides should be able to buy a house together.

In this way, the son's household registration can be moved to Beijing and enjoy the medical insurance there.

Zhou Bingren said:

"You don't need to buy a house for now. Tongtong has her own house, 180 square meters, which is enough for her and Xiaoyu to live on... Don't worry about things like houses and money. Although our family is not a wealthy family, we are not poor. We will not let the two children live a hard life."

He wanted to mention those cultural relics, but judging from the reaction of his in-laws, they probably didn't know about those cultural relics, so he didn't mention it. Anyway, the meat was rotten in the pot. He only had Tongtong as a daughter, and the family property would belong to her and Xiaoyu in the future.

Arriving at the B&B, Grandpa Zhou pointed to the cable bridge not far away and asked:

"We can see the stone carvings after crossing the bridge, right? Take me to see them in the afternoon."

Zhou Bingliang quickly said:

"You can't drink at noon, your smart bracelet is connected to my mother's mobile phone. If she sees your heart rate, she will definitely call you."

Zhou Yongnian looked at his wrist and wanted to take it off:

"How can I not drink when I come to my grandson-in-law's place... Can I take it off? Just say there is no signal in the mountains."

Zhou Ruotong smiled and said:

"Grandpa, just wear it, and drink three cups at noon today, okay?"

"Okay, listen to my good granddaughter!"

At this time, several other experts from the archaeological team also arrived. Li Yu tied an apron and was busy cooking in the kitchen. Soon, delicious dishes were brought to the big private room.

In the courtyard of the B&B, Diao Chan and Mu Guiying greeted the elders of both sides, and then went to the study.

Diao Chan had been to the capital and met the elders of the Zhou family, while Mu Guiying had been to the provincial capital and left an impression of a big eater in front of Zhang Ping and his wife.

Now seeing the elders of both sides, one of them felt guilty and the other was timid. Mu Guiying had been thinking about the food for the whole morning, but now she even lost the desire to eat and returned to Mu Ke Village.

Li Fengyang, who was riding a pink electric car, listened to Mu Guiying's confession and couldn't help complaining:

"You and the Second Master's Wife are really...unworthy of being used!"

Mu Guiying's face was a little embarrassed, and she tapped Li Fengyang's forehead lightly:

"Sister Zhou is coming, have you made the banner?"

"Okay, when the time comes, the gongs and drums will be loud, the red flags will be flying, and the elders and villagers of the whole village will come to pay homage to the Master's Wife. I will definitely help you to liven up the atmosphere."

The leader of Mu Ke Village wants to curry favor with people, so the people in the village naturally have to do their best.

"That's right. I'll steal some goose meat for you later. Go on, I'll go tell my master."

After that, the girl went to the Wa Palace. Li Fengyang continued to train his troops, preparing to march north and expand the territory when Zhao Xue arrived.

In the real world, the welcoming banquet in the big private room finally began.

When Zhou Bingren and his wife saw the dishes on the table, they became more satisfied with their son-in-law. It's good that he can cook. Their daughter will have a good time in the future.

Li Yu took a few bottles of Wuliangye, opened them, and started pouring wine.

When they were not opened, the elders present paid no attention to these bottles of wine, but when the bottle caps were opened, the aroma of wine that had accumulated over the years suddenly filled the room.

Seeing everyone's reactions, Zhou Ruotong almost laughed.

The stinky guy asked Zishou to take away several boxes of wine yesterday, and asked Wenzhong to use his magic power to increase his time by twenty years.

These wines produced this year have been transformed into twenty-year-old wines... After the baptism of time, the aroma of the wine will naturally be very rich.

Zhou Bingliang smelled the wine glass and sighed:

"It's different when my father-in-law is here. The wine was not as good last time. I accidentally took advantage of the third child... Come on, let's go first. I wish Xiao Yu and Tong Tong a happy life together! "
