Chapter 54
A good night's sleep, when Xu Hanwen woke up from a sweet dream, Zhang Lin was no longer on the bed, and the bed next to him was barely warm, it seemed that he had been up for some time.

Putting on her nightgown, Xu Hanwen got out of bed and opened the curtains of the room, letting the sunlight of the winter morning into the room.Today is a fine weather, and Xu Hanwen's heart is suddenly filled with sunshine.

She opened the door of the room, and a scent wafted into her nostrils, drawing her attention to the figure who was busy in the kitchen.

"Wenwen, wash up first, and you can have breakfast right away." Zhang Lin heard the sound of the door opening and knew that Xu Hanwen had woken up. He was busy with the movements of his hands and said without turning his head.

When Xu Hanwen came out of the bathroom after washing, breakfast was already set on the dining table: cooked glutinous rice porridge, steaming steamed buns, fried eggs just right, and a refreshing side dish, simple and nutritious, Let Xu Hanwen move her index finger.

Although Xu Hanwen knew that Zhang Lin was very self-reliant, and had eaten breakfast made by him when he was in Beijing, but it was just simple bread and eggs, but today he got up and cooked rice porridge. Not generally capable, but if time permits, I don't know if he can cook a whole table of delicious dishes.

After breakfast, Xu Hanwen cleaned up the kitchen and bedroom, while Zhang Lin sorted out the things he needed to bring to his aunt's house. At about 9:00, they came to Xu Runting's house and picked up Li Yiran to go to Gao Lei's house together.

When they came to the villa where Gao Lei's family lived, Gao Lei knew that they were coming today. Hearing the sound of the car, Gao Lei, Gao Tian and his son came out together.

"Xiaowen, now I have to call you younger brother and sister. As I said, my aunt and the others are very nice. How is it? They have become my younger brother and sister so soon, hahaha..." Gao Lei joked when he saw Xu Hanwen road.

"Hi cousin, here's the red envelope." Xu Hanwen didn't hesitate, she called out to her cousin, and asked for the red envelope.

"Oh...haha... There are red envelopes, there are red envelopes. Every day, I came to see my cousin." Gao Lei didn't expect Xu Hanwen to do something like this, he let out a haha, and pulled his son who was communicating with Li Yiran to let him go His name is Xu Hanwen.

"Hi, Auntie!"

"Hi Uncle Cousin!"

When Gao Tian called Xu Hanwen, Li Yiran who could only hear him shouted at Gao Lei.

"Oh, add a word, I don't feel like I'm not directly calling Uncle kind..." After calling, Li Yiran muttered softly on the side.

"That's right, but it's better to call me uncle directly from now on. Come on, let's go in quickly. Although it's sunny today, it's still quite cold." Gao Lei followed Li Yiran's words, and greeted everyone to enter the door.

It was the first time for Xu Hanwen to come to Gao Lei's house, but Li Yiran had been here quite a few times. Every time she went to Lin Dong's place for class, she had to come to Gao Lei's first, and then Gao Tian took her to Lin Dong's studio.

"Grandma!" Li Yiran shouted to the old lady who stood up facing them as soon as she entered the door.

This old lady should be Hu Xilan, the mother of Zhang Lin's aunt Gao Lei. She is somewhat similar to Hu Xiruo, but she seems to be much older than Hu Xiruo, and she is not as well-maintained as Hu Xiruo. Young She probably suffered a lot during her childhood, so she looked older, but the old lady was kind and kind. When she heard Li Yiran's shout, her face was filled with a warm and sincere smile, and she called them to sit down.

"Aunt, this is my lover Xu Hanwen, who is also Li Yiran's mother. Wenwen, this is my aunt." Zhang Lin introduced the two parties.

"Hello, Auntie! I have caused you a lot of trouble all the time, and I am ashamed to come to see Auntie today." Xu Hanwen knew that every time her daughter went to Lin Dong's painting class, she would come here to disturb her. , and sometimes stay for dinner.In the past, she wanted to visit, but she was afraid of disturbing other people's lives even more, so she said this today.

"Look at what you said, but I really like this little girl very much. Whether it is our Gao family, Zhang family, or even our mother's Hu family, the juniors are almost all boys, and there is a shortage of female dolls. But she is so cute, now we They are relatives again, and the family does not speak the same language. Come and sit down." It seems that the old lady is outspoken.

"Come on, Xiaolin, younger siblings will drink tea. Every day, you bring your drinks and play with your younger sister in your study." Gao Lei's wife served the tea she made herself, along with a few cans of juice drinks, Pass it to Gao Tian, ​​and ask his son to take Li Yiran directly to the second floor.

"I heard from your mother that you plan to hold a wedding on May [-]st?" After everyone was seated, Aunt Hu Xilan asked Zhang Lin.

"Yes, it's the date set by grandpa. By the way, where is my uncle?" Zhang Lin didn't see his uncle answering his aunt's question and asked at the same time.

"He has something to do with the college today. Let's deal with it. He should be back soon." Zhang Lin's uncle, Gao Yuanru, is the dean of the Law School of N University.

"We're getting married on May [-]st. The time is tight. There are only three months. I don't know if your mother can make it. If it's not a year, I'll go to Beijing to help your mother so that your mother doesn't make mistakes in her busy schedule." It seemed to the old lady This nephew loves him very much.

"That would be the best, but if you go away for a few months, what will my uncle do?" If there is an aunt who goes to Beijing to help, Zhang Lin can't wait for it.

"The old man studies knowledge all day long, as long as he has food and drink, it doesn't matter if he has me or not. Anyway, with your sister-in-law here, just let him eat and wear warm."

"The old woman is arranging something for me again, what is food and drink... I seem to be a foodie, I only know how to eat and drink..." From the sound of the voice, a tall and thin old man opened the door and entered.

The person who came was Zhang Lin's uncle Gao Yuanru, a senior intellectual.I saw him with a pair of glasses on his nose. He was over sixty years old, with a straight back and a radiant look. He was elegant and wise but handsome, without the pedantic air of an old pedant at all.

"Where am I arranging you? Who doesn't let you disturb you once you enter the study room. It's a pretense of studying knowledge, but it doesn't mean that I'm an old woman who is nagging! Well, then I'll go to Beijing to find my little sister to play with." The old man The wife took the call.

"You...you want to go to Beidu to spend some time with my little sister, so you just say it. There are so many excuses. But it's been a while since I saw my little sister..." The old man seemed to be blaming The old lady, but the way he looked at the old lady had a different kind of tenderness.

Except for Xu Hanwen looking at the old couple with surprised eyes, the other people have long been accustomed to the teasing dialogue between the old couple, and they are no strangers to it.

"Presumably this is Wenwen, who is going to be Zhang Lin's new wife in our family soon. I am laughing at you." Seeing Xu Hanwen who was standing next to Zhang Lin and looking at him talking to the old lady with surprised eyes, Gao Yuanru shook his head. Say hello.

"Oh...hehe, hello uncle!" Xu Hanwen shyly retracted her surprised eyes, touched her nose with her fingers, and said hello to Gao Yuanru shyly.

"Lin'er is going to get married on May [-]st. I'm afraid that Xiao Ruo won't be able to do it alone, and something will go wrong. I've already been busy with Lei'er's wedding, so I want to help my little sister." When everyone sat down again , the old lady formally explained to her husband.

"I know you're worried about my little sister, so it's good to go and help her. Anyway, I'm going to Beijing for a meeting at the beginning of the next semester. Why don't we go to the capital together after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month? It's okay to have some troubles on the way." Let me take care of you, so that you don't have to go alone, we are all worried." The old man said.

"Then I would like to thank my uncle and aunt first, and of course my brother and sister-in-law. When the time comes, my aunt will not be in N City, so I will ask my brother and sister-in-law to take care of my uncle's life." Zhang Lin was eager for his aunt to go to Beijing to help his mother, although the wedding Yan Bei was basically handed over to Yan Bei, but there are still many things that Hu Xiruo has to take care of. Now with the help of his aunt, it should be the icing on the cake.

"Why are you being polite? If your sister-in-law didn't have to go to work, I would have asked your sister-in-law to go to Beidu to help my aunt." Gao Lei gave his cousin a sideways look, somewhat dissatisfied with his cousin's politeness.

"By the way, Lin'er, have you received your certificate? You are going to take office in S City after the new year, and Xiaowen should also go to work. You should hurry up and prepare for the things you should prepare before the wedding. There are some things we can't help with. I'm busy." The old lady reminded them.

"The certificate has been obtained in Beidu, and the wedding photos have also been taken. The wedding dress, dress and rings have also been ordered, and the store is making them." Zhang Lin said respectfully to the old lady. His own mother was even more respectful.

"Well, that's fine. After you go to visit your father-in-law and mother-in-law, then you can go about your work with peace of mind. Your mother and I will supervise the wedding preparations, and you will be the bridegroom and mother-in-law." Bride, of course, the most important thing is to hurry up and make a man, your grandpa must be looking forward to the birth of your child." As soon as the old lady said the words of making a man, everyone in the room looked at Xu Hanwen's abdomen , as if there was already a villain there.

Xu Hanwen didn't expect the old lady to suddenly turn the topic to childbearing. When she saw that everyone's eyes were turning to her abdomen, her face turned red.

"Well, we are working hard! We will definitely not disappoint everyone!" Not to mention that Zhang Lin would answer such a sentence in a serious manner after hearing what his aunt said, and Xu Hanwen was so ashamed that she didn't even dare to raise her head. This is unknown. Tell everyone clearly, is there JQ between them?
Just when Xu Hanwen was so ashamed that she wanted to find a hole in the ground to hide the ostrich in, Gao's nanny came over to ask if she could serve dinner, which relieved Xu Hanwen from embarrassment.

After the meal, the old lady chatted with Zhang Lin about the folk customs in provinces J and Z, and reminded him what to pay attention to when he went to Xu Hanwen's house.When the old lady mentioned this, Xu Hanwen thought about it carefully. Her hometown really has a lot of new son-in-law customs, but she remembers that when she brought Li Fang to the door to recognize relatives, her parents did not completely follow the customs of their hometown. , so she really didn't think too much about it, and even agreed to her parents' request that they live directly in her own home.

In fact, when the new son-in-law of Xu Hanwen’s hometown came to recognize relatives for the first time, there was a custom of not staying overnight at home. Son-in-laws who came from far away were not allowed to stay overnight at Yue’s house. unfavorable.When Li Fang came to the door, his parents used the excuse that they were not officially married, and let Li Fang stay in the hotel.I just don't know why my parents let me bring Zhang Lin to live at home this time.

But Xu Hanwen didn't want to worry too much about these things. Since she was reborn, she has seen many things quite clearly. As long as the people she cares about are happy, why should she care about other people's opinions.Parents must have their reasons for insisting that they live at home, as long as they let nature take its course.They didn't object to Hu Xilan's reminder, they just agreed to everything.

The old lady was asked to take a lunch break, Zhang Lin and Gao Lei went to the study to chat about their topics, and Mrs. Gao Lei accompanied Xu Hanwen to continue chatting in the living room.

From Mrs. Gao Lei's introduction, Xu Hanwen knew that Hu Xilan was 12 years older than Hu Xiruo. Because their mother died early, Hu Xiruo was only five years old when she died, and soon her father continued. So Hu Xiruo was basically brought up by Hu Xilan.The eldest sister is like a mother, no wonder Zhang Lin treats this aunt as respectfully as an elder...

When Zhang Lin and Gao Lei came out of the study after finishing their conversation, the two women talked about basic necessities, food, housing, transportation, parents, children's education, women's beauty and hairdressing, and health preservation. Such a feeling of seeing each other late, calling out that we must spend more time together to exchange life experiences in the future.

By the time Zhang Lin and the others returned to Chenlan Garden, Lin Jia and the others had already prepared dinner, and they would serve it as soon as they arrived.
