Chapter 212: Received the dowry
Chapter 212: Accepted the betrothal gift
Yuhuan County covers an area of 2,300 square kilometers, but more than 1,900 square kilometers of them belong to the sea area, and the land area is more than 370 square kilometers. When entering the Yuhuan area and passing through a tunnel, a fishy smell that made people almost disgusting came to the nose. Hao Yunyang closed the car window as fast as possible, looked at Zhao Chenxin with some surprise, and said, "What does this smell?"
"Every day, there are cars carrying seafood running back and forth, and the smell gathers in the tunnel and cannot get out." Zhao Chenxin looked at Hao Yunyang and covered her mouth and smiled slightly: "It's better to be here. If it were replaced with the tunnel on the side of the monk, the smell would be even heavier."
"..." Hao Yunyang probably passed through this kind of tunnel for the first time. After hearing Zhao Chenxin's words, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "This smell is so bad. Has no one cleaned it up?"
"How to clean it up?" Zhao Chenxin looked at Hao Yunyang with a strange look: "The tunnel in section is fine, but the long tunnel tastes even heavier."
"Pray with air freshener!" Hao Yunyang said it for granted, but Zhao Chenxin was speechless. He sprayed the tunnel with air freshener? As expected, there is nothing that cannot be done, only unexpected things...
After passing through the tunnel, Hao Yunyang also opened the car window and took a deep breath of fresh air. It seemed that people were energetic in an instant. Looking at the buildings standing in front of him, he turned his head and asked, "Is the urban area ahead?"
"No, it's the edge, and when you go in, it's the city." Zhao Chenxin stretched out her body, and a heart-warming smile appeared on her face, revealing a lazy feeling: "After walking outside the city and walking around the sea, you will reach my house in about fifteen minutes."
"Haha, why don't you go down and have lunch first?" Hao Yunyang found a reason, as if he had not yet prepared to meet his parents.
Hearing Hao Yunyang's question, Zhao Chenxin glanced at him again: "It's almost time to get to the door of the house, and I have to eat lunch outside? My mother's scallion oil yellow croaker tastes very good. I'll let my mother make it for you later."
"...Okay." Without any buffering time, Hao Yunyang could only accept his fate, nodded, took a few deep breaths, and said to himself: "Eat yellow croaker or a stick. You will know later. Men, be calm."
The construction of Yuhuan urban area is quite good, even compared to Jiaojiang, where the Taizhou government is located. Various shops are lined with each other on both sides of the street, and the pedestrians on the street can be described as the word "concentration".
It took me less than a kilometer to get out after walking for nearly twenty minutes. However, compared to the traffic jam in Liu City, it was much better if I had to walk for three hours a few hundred meters.
Hao Yunyang was also a little confused when he left the city. He only knew to follow the navigation instructions and then entered a highway near the sea. On the road, the car could see densely packed small insects lying like cockroaches on the side of the road. As soon as the car came over, it immediately scattered and crawled into the cracks of the rocks and disappeared.
This highway is not wide and can only accommodate two cars walking side by side. Wang Shiyu's driving speed is not slow. It was originally expected to take fifteen minutes to reach the destination of the trip, Damaiyu District, after only eight minutes.
"By bypassing the economic development zone in front and walking along the main road for three minutes, I saw a pomegranate tree and stopped, and it was my home!" When I arrived at Damaiyu, Zhao Chenxin's little face seemed to be getting rosy. The person who was originally Wenwen started to talk nonstop, and it is not difficult to see her mood at this moment from this point alone: "Well, a four-story cement building is stamped with white tiles outside, which is easy to recognize. My mother is probably replacing the net for my third uncle at the door. I will take you to the dock to play there..."
Zhao Chenxin showed some situations that Hao Yunyang didn't care much about, but seeing her excited look, Hao Yunyang still maintained a smile on her face, nodded from time to time, and looked like she was very interested.
The three-minute road was not long. After passing through the Damaiyu Economic Development Zone, what imprinted Hao Yunyang's eyes was a building of different heights, with eight or nine floors high and only one or two floors short. It didn't look very good outside. It had a very strong contrast with the economic development zone I saw when I came here. One was clean and tidy, and the other was messy.
Sitting in the car, I saw several women holding shuttles on the open space next to the road, and some children who were only about ten years old were chasing and fighting among the fishing nets. When I opened the car window, a faint smell of fish penetrated into the nasal cavity of the four people.
"That's my mother." Zhao Chenxin bit her lip lightly and said to Wang Shiyu: "Shi Yu, stop the car by the wall."
"Okay." Wang Shiyu agreed, and stopped as soon as he said that he would stop. He stepped on the accelerator and rushed to the wall. Then he stepped on the brakes hard. The whole car was inevitably shocked. Hao Yunyang rolled his eyes directly, but Zhao Chenxin seemed to feel nothing. As soon as the car stopped, he couldn't wait to push open the car door and jumped out of the car. Before his feet could land, the sound of his feet sounded: "Mom!"
"Hey, Xiao Xin." Zhao Chenxin, who was holding the shuttle and chuckling with a few women of similar age, was slightly stunned. She looked in the voice, but Zhao Chenxin, the eldest daughter who had not returned home for several months, showed surprise on her face. She put down the shuttle and stood up from the small stool, and said, "Why are you back?"
"I miss you!" Zhao Chenxin quickly ran to her mother, and naturally put her hands on her mother's arm, with a slight sense of coquettishness: "I also miss the scallion oil small yellow croaker you made!"
"You girl, I thought about this as soon as I got home." Zhao Chenxin's mother was in her forties and looked ordinary. She didn't know what she was wearing inside, but she was wearing a dark blue work clothes on the outside, which was the same as her knees. After hearing Zhao Chenxin's words, she couldn't help laughing, patted Zhao Chenxin's back of her hand, and said, "Mom will go and get you a yellow croaker later. How long will it take to stay at home after this trip?"
"It should take a few days." Zhao Chenxin came to her senses, and two blush appeared on her face. She lowered her head with a little twisted look and said, "That...mom..."
"Hmm?" Zhao's mother was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhao Chenxin: "What's wrong?"
"I...I brought a friend back..." Zhao Chenxin's cheeks were a little hot and hot. Although her relationship with Hao Yunyang was already very clear outside, she was still a little nervous and shy when she actually came to her mother, and her voice was very light.
But Zhao's mother heard it clearly, and the smile on her face gradually solidified: "Friend?"
"Um……"
"Male?"
"Um……"
"Boyfriend?" Zhao's mother's face became slightly stiff.
"Well..." Zhao Chenxin shook and nodded gently.
"No!" However, the expected success did not come. After seeing Zhao Chenxin nodding, his face, which had been filled with smiles, suddenly pulled down. Zhao's mother's tone was very firm: "I object!"
"Ah?" Zhao Chenxin was shocked and stared at her mother blankly. Tears began to spin in her eyes: "Why..."
"If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Come in with me!" Zhao's mother's tone was surprisingly stern, and she didn't give Zhao Chenxin any explanation at all. She pulled Zhao Chenxin's wrist and walked towards her door. Seeing her like that, she seemed to be locking Zhao Chenxin up!
What happened to Zhao Chenxin naturally fell into Hao Yunyang's eyes. Besides, Zhao's mother did not mean to lower her voice, but it was very loud. The sound of decisiveness also penetrated into Hao Yunyang's ears.
After being stunned in his seat for a full half minute, Hao Yunyang suddenly pushed open the car door and jumped down, raised his right hand and shouted: "Wait!"
Zhao Chenxin, who had been pulled out by Zhao's mother, stopped, and Zhao's mother also stopped, and turned her head to look at Hao Yunyang who was walking towards them and daughter. At the same time, several women who were replacing the net in the open space also looked at Hao Yunyang.
"Hello, aunt, I..."
"Our Chenxin cannot be with you. If there is nothing else, please leave immediately!" Zhao's mother did not give Hao Yunyang the chance to finish her words. Her attitude was very firm. Although Mandarin was not standard, Hao Yunyang had already understood what she meant, including the previous voice that was not good in dialect, which made Hao Yunyang appreciate the loud voice of his future mother-in-law, who was probably not inferior to his mother...
"Mom! What are you doing!" Zhao Chenxin suddenly broke free from Zhao's mother's pull. The tears in her eyes had already rolled down like pearls with broken lines. She took three or four steps in a row, and looked at Zhao's mother with tears in her eyes: "Why!"
"There is no reason, it's not possible." Zhao's mother simply changed into Mandarin, turned her head to look at Hao Yunyang, and said, "If you really want to do your best for our Chen Xin, you'd better leave now, otherwise our uncles will come later, you..."
"Is it because of that Zhao Yongkang?" At this moment, Zhao Chenxin seemed to remember something and looked at her mother with an incredible look on her face: "You have accepted the things sent by his family?"
"Who is Zhao Yongkang?" The sudden change caught Hao Yunyang off guard, and he didn't quite understand what happened between Zhao Chenxin, the mother and daughter, but Zhao Yongkang? What was given?!
Hao Yunyang's face suddenly pulled down and he slowly spit out two words: "Between?"
"..." It was silence, and the atmosphere at the scene gradually became more serious. Zhao's mother looked at Hao Yunyang, then at Zhao Chenxin, hesitated, and slowly nodded: "Between."
