Chapter 2545 is about getting the parents to meet.
He looked at Zeng Xiaoya with tenderness in his eyes, "You spent half the day chatting with my grandma and playing with the children. They were all very happy. I should thank you for that."
Zeng Xiaoya said, "They are happy, and I am happy too. I haven't been this happy in a long time. Your family is so big and lively. It's rare that you can all get together on the weekend."
Unlike her family, who can't even get together for holidays because someone is always on duty or has to have surgery.
They chose the path of medicine, and saving lives became their responsibility. Treating the sick and saving lives was their top priority, and everything else had to come later.
“Next week you’ll have a day off, and we’ll go on a road trip together. It’ll be even more fun. Those kids all said they wanted to come along when they heard we were going on a trip next week.”
Originally, it was just the old lady who invited Zeng Xiaoya, but when they actually went out, it was probably a large group of people.
Although he couldn't be alone with Xiaoya, he was happy to see her gradually getting to know his family and slowly letting go of her inhibitions.
What he wanted was for Xiaoya to let go of her mental burdens and stop thinking that just because he was a rich young master he was superior to others. Only then would the chances of her accepting his confession be higher.
"It's also because you wanted to take them with you, otherwise why would you have told them that we're going on a trip next week?"
Zhan Yue smiled, “They are all my nephews and nieces. I am not married and do not have children myself, but I can’t help but dote on them. In my heart, they are like my own children.”
“I see that your uncle and his family love you very much, and your parents love your brother and sister-in-law the same way. Your family has a really good tradition, and the rumors are not false at all.”
Zhan Yue smiled and said, "That's right. His family has a good tradition, and everyone is very tolerant and forgiving. That's why this big family can always live in harmony."
Grandma said, "Harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things." We must achieve harmony in the family, not just talk about it. If we truly achieve harmony in the family, then everything will surely prosper.
Zhan Yue sat in the Zeng family clinic for a while longer, drinking several glasses of water, before driving away under Zeng Xiaoya's watchful gaze.
Only after his car was out of sight did Zeng Xiaoya turn back into the clinic and close the clinic door.
As she turned to go upstairs, she saw her second uncle and aunt looking around at the top of the stairs. Zeng Xiaoya asked with a smile, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt, what are you doing?"
"You seemed to be having a good chat, so we didn't want to disturb you. Has Zhan Yue gone back?"
My second aunt came over.
“If he goes back, we won’t have any late-night snacks to offer him. What’s he doing sitting there if he doesn’t go back?”
Auntie chuckled, "That's true, we don't have any late-night snacks at home."
They don't eat late-night snacks.
"Second Uncle, there's something I forgot to tell you."
"what's up?"
"Today at Zhan Yue's house, we were chatting and the topic of my grandfather's 80th birthday came up. Grandma Zhan said that if my grandfather really comes back to celebrate his 80th birthday, I should send her an invitation."
"She wanted to come and attend Grandpa's birthday banquet."
Auntie said, "Old Madam Zhan should be older than your grandfather, right?"
"She is ninety years old."
"Just because she's older than Grandpa doesn't mean she can't attend his birthday banquet."
Xiaoya asked curiously, thinking there was such a custom.
My second aunt said, "No, that's not true. It's just that she's getting old, and her health and energy aren't as good as young people's. There are a lot of people at the birthday banquet, and I'm afraid she'll find it noisy and won't have the energy."
Xiaoya smiled and said, "Don't worry, Second Aunt, Grandma Zhan is still in good health. When she was Grandpa's age, she often flew around by plane. Zhan Yue's sisters-in-law were chosen by her when she flew around, and Zhan Yue's brothers pursued them."
"Grandma Zhan went to the hospital for a full check-up a few days ago. I saw her test results, and many young people don't have such good results as her."
"She doesn't like quiet; she prefers liveliness. Zhan Yue said his grandmother likes it when everyone is at home, all together and having a lively atmosphere."
My second uncle said, "Your grandfather said he didn't want a big celebration. He just wanted us all to come back and get together when we have time, have a meal, and that's enough. There's no need for a birthday banquet. He said that people in our family don't celebrate birthdays."
"Since Madam Zhan wants to come, when your grandparents return, let's invite Zhan Yue to come with his grandmother so everyone can meet and get to know each other."
Second Uncle guessed that the old lady of the Zhan family wanted the two children to meet each other's parents, especially since most of the Zeng family members had never met Zhan Yue.
Xiaoya's parents had never met Zhan Yue; they had only heard him say how outstanding he was. Whether her brother and sister-in-law were satisfied with Zhan Yue would only be known once they returned and saw him in person.
Xiaoya said, "I guessed that Grandpa didn't want to have a big celebration, so after Grandpa comes back, I'll talk to Zhan Yue and ask him to bring Grandma Zhan over for a visit."
My second uncle hummed in agreement.
"Since we've invited Old Madam Zhan, let's invite Zhan Yue's parents as well."
Xiaoya didn't think much of it and not only agreed but also said, "Zhan Yue's uncle and aunt are also at home. They invited Grandma Zhan and Auntie. It wouldn't be good to leave his uncle at home. I think his elders always go together wherever they go."
"Let's just call them along."
Uncle and Aunt exchanged glances, and Uncle said, "You can make the arrangements yourself. Zhan Yue is your friend now. You should make the arrangements for your friend."
"it is good."
The three men, uncle and nephew, stopped talking and went upstairs.
When Zhan Yue returned home, apart from his nieces and nephews who were too young to stay awake and had already fallen asleep, his parents and brothers and sisters-in-law were still waiting for him in the hall.
Upon seeing him enter, his second brother teased him, "This is a farewell ceremony, so reluctant to part. You escorted Miss Zeng home before it was completely dark, and now it's late at night before you're back."
"Eighth Brother, you should have been shameless enough to stay overnight at the Zeng family's house."
Zhan Yue said, "We're not married yet, how can I stay overnight at the Zeng family's house? That would damage Xiaoya's reputation."
Even if they do nothing, as long as he stays overnight at the Zeng family's house, everyone will assume that he and Xiaoya have done *that*.
Just like Dr. Lin and Ms. He, they shared a bed but did nothing, but who would believe it if they told others?
Everyone still believes that Dr. Lin and Ms. He have consummated their marriage.
Zhan Yue had made up his mind about Xiao Ya; she was the woman he wanted to spend his life with, and he would protect her reputation.
I don't want her to get involved in any trouble.
"They haven't even confessed yet, and they're already protecting each other."
Zhan Yue walked up to his two older brothers, squeezed between them, and managed to squeeze out a seat.
Then, he placed one of his brothers' thighs on his hand and said, "I learned all this from my brothers. I treat Xiaoya the way you treat my sister-in-law."
"Kid, you haven't paid your tuition yet, you're just trying to learn from me. You can pay it now, so hurry up and transfer some money to me and your older brother as tuition."
