Chapter 2 Talking about marriage, getting married and meeting parents
When Cheng Yu'an woke up early the next morning, Dong Xuan was gone by his pillow.
She is going out to shoot a commercial today.
Cheng Yu'an washed up and walked out of the room. Qin Ranqiu was sitting at the table eating breakfast.
"Just in time, I bought you buns, eat them while they're hot." He said and took a sip of porridge.
"You really think of me as your family." Cheng Yu'an took a bite of the bun.
"How can we brothers divide what's yours and what's mine?" Qin Ranqiu put some pickles into Cheng Yu'an's bowl.
“You’re going to get rid of me with such a small thing!”
"Oh, by the way, come with me later and introduce you to a job."
"What kind of job?" Cheng Yu'an asked while eating.
"Does the crew of "Dragon Movie" know?"
"Who doesn't know about Zhang's bearded drama?" Every remake of Jin Yong's drama attracts a lot of attention.
"I've arranged a relationship, and we'll work as assistants for someone. 50,000 yuan for two months."
"Okay! Quietly."
"That's because you think I only know how to pick up girls. Eat quickly and leave as soon as you're done."
Cheng Yu'an didn't ask Qin Ranqiu how he did it, but he boasted first:
"I met their director Yu Min at a wine party before. I drank with him for three days and finally pried his mouth open."
Yu Min is Zhang Bearded's director, and they have been cooperating with him since "Yongle Heroes". After "Dragon", Yu Min also filmed Liu Yifei's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Although people all over the country know that the boss of the "Dragon" crew is Zhang Bearded, as a director, he still has the power he should have. No one would say anything when two assistants are arranged to join the crew.
The two came to an office building and successfully met Director Yu Min and had a chat.
Yu Min discovered that Cheng Yu'an graduated with a major in directing and studied under Professor Hou Kenming. Without saying anything, he immediately agreed to arrange for the two of them to join the team.
Cheng Yu'an serves as the director's assistant and nominal deputy director; Qin Ranqiu serves as the camera assistant.
This kind of opportunity is very valuable for newcomers who have just entered the industry. How many newcomers can join the bearded crew to film Jin Yong dramas right after graduation?
After agreeing on the time to join the set, the two said goodbye to Director Yu Min and prepared to find a place to celebrate.
When Dong Xuan came back in the evening, his expression was not very good, but Cheng Yu'an, who was immersed in excitement, did not notice the change in his girlfriend, and was happily introducing the crew of "Dragon" to Dong Xuan.
Dong Xuanqiang made a happy face and asked: "When will you join the team?"
"In two days, I have to go to Zhejiang and Yunnan with the crew."
"Then how long will you be leaving?" Dong Xuan took Cheng Yu'an's hand.
"It should take two or three months." Cheng Yu'an was so happy that he finally saw something was wrong on the girl's face and asked, "What's wrong? She's crying."
Cheng Yu'an scratched Dong Xuan's face, and the girl finally said: "Yu'an, my parents are coming to the capital tomorrow and want to see you."
"Ah!" The news came so suddenly that Cheng Yu'an was not prepared at all. "Why is it coming at this time? I am not prepared at all."
"My parents deliberately hid it from me, and I just found out." The girl leaned into Cheng Yu'an's arms, "They knew we were together and said they wanted to come see you."
Cheng Yu'an hugged Dong Xuan, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay! When will the two elders arrive, we will pick them up."
Dong Xuan lightly punched Cheng Yu'an and said angrily: "You two old men, my parents are less than 50. They will arrive tomorrow afternoon."
"Now hurry up and pick out a gift. What does your father like? Tea or wine? What about your mother? How about buying a bag?" Cheng Yu'an said as he pulled Dong Xuan out.
When Dong Xuan was thinking about this matter during the day, he was worried that it would happen suddenly and Cheng Yu'an would not dare to see anyone. But now seeing his boyfriend being so upright and positive, he felt safe in his heart.
The two went shopping for a night and bought a belt for Dong's father and a bracelet for Dong's mother, spending more than 20,000 yuan.
Dong Xuan felt distressed and said there was no need to buy such an expensive one.
But Cheng Yu'an felt: "After all this time, I have to serve the second elder comfortably? This is why it is not strange to be polite to many people."
Dong Xuan said no, but in his heart he felt as if he had eaten honey. His boyfriend was so generous to his parents, which showed his sincerity. Now he felt more and more that he had chosen the right person.
The next afternoon, the two of them took a long bath together, feeling brand new from top to bottom, inside and out.
Then I drove my little Xiali to the train station to pick someone up.
Dong Xuan held Cheng Yuan's arm and waited for others at the exit of the station, standing on tiptoes to look in from time to time.
After a while, a smile broke out on Dong Xuan's face, he jumped up and waved his hands: "Dad, Mom, here!"
Cheng Yu'an also noticed a middle-aged couple in the crowd looking towards him. Dad Dong is tall and tall, and has maintained a good figure. He has not gained weight. He is a handsome middle-aged guy. Mom Dong has put on makeup and is slightly fat, but has a good temperament.
good.
I heard from Dong Xuan that her mother was also a dancer when she was young.
Father Dong and Mother Dong came closer, looking at their precious daughter with joy, holding hands and refusing to let go.
Dong Xuan took the opportunity to introduce: "Mom and Dad, this is Cheng Yu'an, my boyfriend."
"Hello, uncle and aunt, I'm Cheng Yu'an. Have you had a hard time coming here?" Cheng Yu'an said and took the luggage from the hands of the two.
It would be a lie to say that I wasn't nervous. Cheng Yu'an, a man of two generations, met the girl's parents for the first time, and her heart jumped into her throat.
On this hot day, cold sweat started to break out on my back.
Cheng Yu'an dragged the three of them to the parking lot with their luggage. During the short distance, Cheng Yu'an walked with fear.
Dong's mother liked Cheng Yu'an very much when she saw him and kept talking to him: "The young man is really energetic. I heard from Huanhuan that you are only 20 years old this year."
"Yes, I was born in 1982, I went to school early, and I just graduated this year." Cheng Yu'an thought he could handle it calmly, but when he really spoke, he only asked and answered questions mechanically.
"It's good to be young and energetic. We have a lot of fun. It's just that we missed dancing for a few years when we were young. As a result, we haven't graduated from college at the age of 23."
"Mom!" Dong Xuan was unhappy.
…
After sending Dong's parents to the hotel and Dong Xuan staying with his parents, Cheng Yu'an took his leave and left time for the family to talk privately.
"I think the young man is very nice." As soon as Cheng Yu'an left, Dong's mother was full of praise for him.
Dong Xuan sat on the edge of the bed with his head lowered, his cheeks flushed and silent.
"He looks good, Huanhuan, he is 183, right?" Dong's mother said while looking in the mirror at the bracelet Cheng Yu'an gave her.
"Yu Anjing is 185cm tall." Dong Xuan answered honestly.
Dad Dong also nodded. In terms of appearance, Cheng Yu'an is indeed impeccable: "What's the use of a man's appearance? He must have a brain."
"Why are you so brainless?" Dong's mother said, "Didn't you hear people say that they studied early and were admitted to the film academy at the age of 16? This shows that this child is smart."
"How come you haven't found a job after graduation? You're still running around as a film crew." Dad Dong's words really hit home.
Dong's mother could only say: "You're only 20 years old, why are you so anxious? If you weren't still pulling the curtain at the troupe when you were 20 years old."
The family chatted in the hotel room for a long time and found out everything about Dong Xuan and Cheng Yu'an being together.
"My silly boy, how can you live with him!" Dong's father reacted particularly strongly to this incident.
"My parents are not the kind of people who are not open-minded. They understand what happens when we are deeply in love, but why do you just...why don't you discuss such a big matter with your parents?"
Dong Xuan had never been trained like this by his parents, and he burst into tears for a while.
Dad Dong didn't have a good look at Cheng Yu'an at first, but now he felt that he had deceived his daughter: "I said at the beginning not to take the exam in Beijing, but now it's okay, my daughter must have been deceived!"
Although Dong's mother was also dissatisfied with the cohabitation, after all, it was too late to scold her daughter anymore.
She just thought that since they were living together, if the two of them agreed, they would settle the matter as soon as possible so as not to follow the truth.
In the evening, Cheng Yuan came to pick up the three of them for dinner.
As soon as they got on the car, Yu'an realized that the atmosphere was not right. Dong's father still didn't treat her well, Dong's mother didn't talk that much anymore, and Dong Xuan was sitting alone in the passenger seat with his head on his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
When we arrived at the hotel, everyone sat down, and a few of them looked a little better.
Mother Dong took Cheng Yuan and asked him about the situation at home.
"My father is gone, but my mother is still there, but she is not at home all year round and I haven't seen her for several years.
"It's not that I don't want to, there was something going on at home in the early years, and my mother didn't want to see us.
"I grew up with my grandfather, and returned to China at the age of 16 to enter the film academy.
"Grandpa is in good health, but after all he is old and is now recuperating in the United States.
"I can make my own decisions."
Cheng Yu'an explained his basic situation. Finally, Dong's mother asked, "I wonder what your current financial situation is like, Xiao Cheng."
Cheng Yu'an replied: "Auntie, that's it. I bought houses in Haidian and Chaoyang in the past two months..."
"Huh?" Dong Xuan reacted, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"Don't you want this to be a surprise?" Cheng Yuan said with a smile.
He earned the money to buy the house through the World Cup in Korea and Japan, and the black whistle in Korea made him a huge profit.
"I really don't have much money now. Here is 200,000." Cheng Yu'an pushed out his bank card, "If Auntie doesn't mind it, I'll give it to you."
Mother Dong knew that accepting the money would mean she agreed to their affairs. Although she liked Cheng Yu'an very much, it was her daughter's lifelong event and there was no room for sloppiness.
Dong's mother was undecided when Dong's father said: "Xiao Cheng, don't worry about this first, you are still young." Then he pushed the bank card back with a smile.
Dong Xuan was stunned. She wished her parents had taken the money so that she could be with Cheng Yuan openly.
Cheng Yu'an was also stunned for a moment, then quickly controlled his expression and said with a smile: "Uncle is right, there is no rush. Let's eat first. The shrimp here is very good. Uncle and aunt should try it."
The meal was full of laughter and laughter, but Dong's father expressed his dissatisfaction with Cheng Yu'an openly and secretly.
"Men still need to have a legitimate and stable job."
