The three of them had been hiding on the stairs to peek at her. Now that she was called out by the old lady, the other two directly pushed her out. They glared at the two traitors and had no choice but to hang their stuff on the wall to wash their hands and make some tea.
By the time she had brewed two cups of tea from her kitchen, Chen Jianguo was already sitting with the old lady in the living room, listening intently.
"It's been hard on you. "Xiumei also didn't explain it to you clearly. It's not convenient to be in the countryside here. You must have left for a long time!"
"Auntie Lin previously mentioned a place, I just came to take a look."
This man really knows how to pretend.
Had he forgotten the rude and arrogant attitude from before?
"Come, come, drink some tea to relieve the heat." Granny Lin smiled, took hold of Peran's hand and introduced him, "This is my family's Peran. Everything is fine, but you're too honest to speak. "
"Grandmother, we just saw each other in the town." Chen couldn't help but smile as he looked at Lin Peilan, who was looking down at him.
He just said that he didn't know who Yang Suyu was in the town, and now he was going to slap himself on the face.
"I have! "Then you certainly didn't recognize her." Granny Lin was stunned for a moment before she tried to smooth things over for Chen Jianguo.
"Aunt Lin showed me a picture of Peran. I really didn't recognize her in town."
She saw it seven or eight years ago at Aunt Ringperan's house. It should be a picture of a primary school student wearing a blue student's skirt. She looked so young and tender.
"Be careful!"
Lin Pilan did not know that Chen Jianguo was lying and was shocked. Her hand that was holding the teacup trembled and she almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Chen Jianguo quickly caught her and did not pour out any of the tea.
So this person stopped her from saying those words for no reason. It turned out that he recognized her.
"Be careful."
"Huh?" Rinperan looked at him dumbly.
Chen Jianguo didn't even glance at her. He only stared at her face. Before, he had thought that this girl was just like a silly little rabbit. Now, it seemed that she really was, and a particularly gentle and good-natured one at that.
"The tea is quite fragrant, I should be careful not to burn you."
Lin Pilan felt a little guilty when she was looked at. The moment she heard Chen Jianguo's words, she felt that something was wrong and lowered her head to look at her own hand.
It was a very wide and big hand with a scalding hot palm and moist sweat. It was less than the distance of a tea's worth of distance between them. The fingertip and the calluses on the back of her hand were exceptionally clear.
Lin Pilan let go of her teacup as if it was scalding hot. The teacup naturally fell into Chen Jianguo's hands, and her face turned red all the way down to her neck. She had truly lost all her face this time.
"This child is honest and introverted. Only his mind is clear." Granny Lin continued to demean herself as she did not see the two of them separate each other at all.
"Grandmother is joking, Peran is fine." Chen Jianguo sincerely said.
It had to be said that she was pleased by Rinperan's shy look. A little girl was still a little girl, she was afraid of even the tiniest bit of contact. If she saw those people from abroad cuddling around, she wouldn't be so scared.
"My family's little girl doesn't need anyone to worry about her. She can do anything that she sees. Look at this tea, isn't it fragrant? The little girl did it herself. "
Grandma Lin was full of praise as she cheerfully offered Chen Jianguo tea. If Lin Pelan liked this tea brewing skill the most, it would be even better than the dishes sent in by the masters of her family when she was young.
"Not bad at all." This was the first time he saw a farmer making tea with a teacup like this. The teacup was not even the size of his fist, and it was also very delicate. Chen Jianguo drank a cup in one gulp and naturally passed it to Lin Peilan. "Please add some water. It's warm and cold."
Ringpelin was astonished. She really wanted to throw the teacup back to him, but Granny Lin just sat there looking at it with a smile. She didn't have the guts to do so.
"It's very hot, it's good to drink more tea." Grandma Lin also saw that Chen Jianguo didn't know much about the tea culture, but she still gestured for Lin Pilan to get some water.
"Alright."
Rinperan could only swallow his anger as he took the cup back to the kitchen to fill it with water.
"Grandma, this time I came to discuss marriage with you." Chen Jianguo straightforwardly said as he watched Lin Peran enter the kitchen.
"You've already taken a fancy to it?" You don't want to choose? "
After hearing Granny Lin's words, Chen Jianguo looked at her seriously. He was sure that she had some sort of resemblance to Lin Xiumei. Only with her gentle and quiet personality could he be sure that she was an old lady from the Lin Clan.
Chen Jianguo was not used to seeing someone destroying his house like this.
"No need. The other girls asked for betrothal or something, it took too long, I was too busy at work to be late at home. We all want to get married a little easier, but she, Peran, is pretty good … "
Elegant and well-mannered, looking at her good temper, she didn't need to worry about her marriage. Chen Jianguo was quite pleased with her.
As for relationships, they could be cultivated. There was nothing wrong with first marriage and then love.
Rinperan took the cup back to the kitchen. He could still hear his voice in the living room.
Previously, he thought that Chen Jianguo was too arrogant, and people were cold, making people afraid.
Then right now, Rinperan only felt that this person was very perfunctory. Where did people get married, it would be easier to look at the person they marry! It wasn't like he was going shopping on the streets, he could just pick and buy anything he wanted.
Even if the marriage was rushed, she still harbored some fantasies about the future, but this person was straightforward, making her unprepared.
Nanny Lin already knew what was going on. The young man in front of her had a straight face, and his gaze was open and sincere. She liked him, but she habitually asked for her son's consent.
"What I said doesn't count. Your uncle will talk about it when he comes back." Peran! "Bring the tea out, we can start cooking now."
"Ah!" "It's here."
"Yes," said Ringpelin in a hurry. He carried the tea out of the kitchen and placed it in front of Chen Jianguo. Without even looking at him, Ringpelin went back to the kitchen to prepare lunch, leaving Granny Lin and Chen Jianguo to talk.
Today, Lin Youcai didn't drink, but went off to work. At noon, he came back with his uncles and aunts.
When Granny Lin introduced Chen Jianguo's purpose of coming here, everyone gathered in the living room to talk about it. Hearing her father's long-awaited laughter, Lin Pilan's heart was filled with an unprecedented feeling of indecision.
It was needless to say that such a man did not know his manners, and such a strange and insolent character, that Ringpelin had no confidence in living a good life with such a man.
Chen Jianguo stayed at the Ringperan house for lunch. He cooked cucumbers, scrambled eggs, hollyhock, and pumpkin soup, but didn't go out to buy vegetables. He only cooked the ingredients he had at home.
Grandmother Lin cooked a good meal, and all the girls at home would cook. Naturally, it wasn't difficult for Lin Peilan either. Just the simple ingredients alone could tell the quality of the cooking.
