Chapter 465 The Unlucky Female Supporting Character in a Metaphysical Novel 42
I've already accepted the gift, it wouldn't be right not to meet you in person!
Yun Qing stared seriously at the pile of gifts and said, "Then let's meet! I'm ready!"
She abducted someone's son/grandson without even saying hello, which was already very impolite. She couldn't keep the elders waiting for her.
Pei Lin hesitated and asked, "Now?"
Yun Qing hesitated, "Is it not okay?"
Didn't they say they were very welcoming to her?
Pei Lin said helplessly, "It's not that it's impossible, but without prior notice, they might panic and get flustered."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qing blinked, thinking that they should meet again in a couple of days.
Pei Lin made the decision: "Yes! Everyone's here today, I'll tell them now."
Everyone had returned to the old house, and since there was nothing urgent, they naturally wanted to have a meal with the old lady before leaving. However, after learning that Pei Lin usually ate with Yun Qing, Pei Lin was sent away to accompany his wife.
Pei Lin made a phone call home, and Yun Qing could already hear the frantic activity on the other end of the line.
"Sister Zhang, hurry! Clean up right away!"
"Ah Lin, what does Qingqing like to eat? Quickly make a menu for me so I can ask the kitchen to make it."
"Old Pei, hurry up and have someone look for some colored lights and balloons. Do we need to put up any 'double happiness' characters?"
"That's right! Fresh flowers! There's no time to spare, let someone go straight to the flower shop and cut them!"
"No! I need to have someone send me a change of clothes. My current clothes aren't formal enough, and it'll be too late to change now."
"Wanning, don't forget me! This suit of mine isn't dignified enough."
"Mom! Do you think my hairstyle is okay? Will my cousin-in-law think it's not handsome enough?"
"Hey! Get out of here. No matter how much you dress up, your cousin's wife will only think Ah Lin is handsome. You can dress up when you get married!"
……
A few people managed to create the commotion of thousands of ducks quacking loudly over there.
Pei Lin silently hung up the phone, sent a menu, and then turned around to see Yun Qing looking nervous.
He quickly explained, "Don't be afraid, they're usually quite normal."
Yun Qing: ...Shut up! When did I think they were acting strangely?
This enthusiasm left her somewhat bewildered.
And she forgot, she hasn't bought a gift yet!
So, Pei Lin's family members were busy decorating the house, while Yun Qing was frantically pulling Pei Lin to choose a gift.
?
The closer the car got to the Pei family's old residence, the more restless Yun Qing became.
After the car drove into the courtyard gate, she started rambling incoherently, "You know what? I have a talent."
Pei Lin asked cooperatively, "What talent?"
"Give up!"
Pei Lin: ...
He chuckled and ruffled her hair. "What are you afraid of? I'm here!"
Yun Qing clung to his arm, anxiously asking, "But won't they be disappointed when they see me?"
She would feel a little sad if someone was so enthusiastic before they met, but suddenly became cold after they met.
If Rinrin also becomes cold towards him... Hmph! Then she'll kick him!
"No, they won't," Pei Lin reassured patiently. "There's a photo on the marriage certificate. They've all seen your picture, and I've also told them about your family situation."
"Although they haven't met you yet, they already know you quite well and aren't disappointed. On the contrary, they feel sorry for all the hardships you've endured over the years."
As soon as he finished speaking, the car came to a stop.
Pei Lin hugged her and kissed her, coaxing her, "Don't worry, I'm a hostage in your hands now. If they treat you badly, just abuse me as much as you want and see who feels sorry for me!"
Yun Qing blurted out, "Me!"
Pei Lin: !!!
His heart was pounding wildly, making him dizzy and unable to resist the urge to kiss her.
But Grandma Pei had already led her family to line up and welcome them.
The group of people, like cheerleaders, held colorful cheerleading trinkets in their hands.
Grandma Pei waved her hands, "Music start!"
"The vast horizon is my love."
Flowers are blooming at the foot of the rolling green hills.
……
Several people started dancing to the music in a hastily choreographed square dance. The movements were simple, but they fully demonstrated their enthusiasm.
Pei Lin: ...
Although the notification was rather sudden and there wasn't much time to prepare, what's the deal with this square dancing?
No one in their family usually does square dancing!
Pei Lin pulled Yun Qing out of the car, looked at his father who was jumping the most enthusiastically but had made a mistake, and said with a headache, "Dad, is this another one of your bad ideas?"
Yun Qing was infected by their enthusiasm and couldn't help but nod along to the music. Seeing that Pei Lin's tone was not very good, she quickly reached out and tugged at him, "I think it's great, it's so lively!"
Mr. Pei raised an eyebrow smugly at Pei Lin, "You little brat, you've finally met your match! Don't dare say a word now, huh? Hahahaha..."
He said that since this child has been lonely since he was little, he must like to be around people. They can't act too serious, aloof and unsociable. They have to be down-to-earth!
Make sure she feels the warm and lively atmosphere of their family, and that she feels a sense of belonging.
I knew it!
Pei Lin didn't bother arguing with him and watched them dance the entire song together with Yun Qing, who was laughing foolishly.
Then Grandma Pei brought out a gong, and with a loud "Duang," Yun Qing was startled. Pei Lin covered her ears, but she couldn't help but laugh happily.
Jiang Yao started playing the drum on the side. Although the drum he found at the last minute was a bit small, he played it with great momentum.
Pei's mother then connected her phone to a speaker and set off firecrackers.
For a time, it could be described as a scene of great noise, with gongs and drums resounding and firecrackers exploding, creating an exceptionally lively atmosphere.
After this performance, Grandma Pei shouted again with a strong voice, "Duang!"—"Flower girls present flowers!"
Flower boy Jiang Yao put down his drumsticks and busily picked up a pot of precious flowers that looked like they had been carefully tended, and handed it to Yun Qing, saying, "Sister-in-law, I wish you and my cousin a harmonious and lasting marriage."
"Thank you."
Just as Yun Qing was about to reach out to take it, Jiang Yao turned it around and handed it to Pei Lin, saying, "This is a bit heavy, cousin can hold it."
Pei Lin reached out and took the flowerpot, and couldn't help but say, "These flowers are not easy to grow."
This is a variety that Grandma Pei accidentally cultivated. The flowers are beautiful and have a pleasant fragrance. It is rare and precious, but it is also very delicate. If you don't pay attention, it will wilt and look like it is about to die.
He worried that if the flower died, Yunqing would feel guilty and sad, feeling that she had let down her grandmother's good intentions.
Jiang Yao chuckled and said, "Grandma said that you, cousin, are responsible for taking care of these flowers, and your wife is responsible for appreciating them. Just enjoy them."
Pei Lin: ...Are you serious?
"Grandma, you know perfectly well that I've never been able to grow flowers; everything I try to grow dies!"
Yes, Pei Lin has a purple aura destiny, which is extremely noble. Everything he does goes smoothly, but he has a strange setting: he can't keep flowers alive.
Even the easiest flowers to grow will die in his hands!
