Chapter 119
Hu Jia thought, no matter how bad it is, watching videos to catch up with dramas is better than going out for a walk, and it's such a hot day, no matter how much sunscreen is used, she doesn't want to get tanned!
Hu Jia felt that listening to adults chatting was a very boring thing, so he said to several people: "Father, mother, second uncle, I won't bother you, I will go to the room to accompany grandma."
"Bring some fruit." Hu Jia's mother reminded.
"Good mother." Hu Jia said, took two apples and walked towards the innermost place.
Grandma lives in the first room in the northwest on the first floor, which is convenient for her to travel. Hu Jia knocked on the door politely and opened the door to enter.
In a warm and comfortable large room, an old man is sitting on a recliner, looking out of the window, the years have left imprints on her face, making her wrinkled face look a bit vicissitudes.
Hu Jia called softly: "Grandma, why are you basking in the sun alone?"
Hearing Hu Jia's call, the old man came back to his senses, looked at Hu Jia who was walking towards him, and showed an amiable smile.
"Jiajia is here? Come, come to grandma." Hu Jia walked over and sat opposite her to peel an apple for her.
"Jiajia, will you be twenty next year?"
"Well, almost twenty."
Grandma Hu Jia smiled and said, "I remember that grandma married your grandpa back then."
Of course Hu Jia knew what she meant, smiled and said, "Oh, grandma, do you want to talk to me about getting married again? I'm still studying, so there's no rush. Besides, I want to spend more time with grandma. "
Grandma Hu Jia went on to say: "What's wrong with studying? Can't you get married if you study? Grandma, I just hope to see you and Ziqian get married. When the time comes, I will bring a big fat boy to accompany grandma."
Hu Jia wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything, and just tried to keep smiling at grandma.
Grandma Hu Jia continued: "Don't blame grandma, this marriage has already been decided. Grandpa Ziqian extended a helping hand when our family was in trouble and helped us tide over the difficulties. He promised his grandpa, Now that the two old men are gone, grandma must take this matter to heart."
"Although grandma's health is not as good as before, but before you get married, grandma must be reluctant to leave."
When Hu Jia heard these words, she only felt her nose a little sour. She cut open the peeled apple and handed it to the old man.
As night fell quietly, the dining table in the hall of Hu Jia's house was busier than usual.
Sitting at the dining table are her parents, second uncle and aunt.
There was also a boy who came with her aunt. He was gentle and refined, with both talent and appearance.
The boy's eyes followed Hu Jia from the moment he entered, his admiration was written all over his face, obviously he had admired him for a long time.
But Hu Jia's mind was not on this boy, he just chatted with his aunt all the time.
They waited until the dishes were served before they officially began to move their chopsticks.
During the dinner, only Hu Yongjin and Hu Yongming had been talking, most of the topics were about work and the like.
Some questions will ask Hu Juan, and I want her to participate in the discussion.
Hu Juan usually doesn't care about work, so she just answered without saying a word.
When chatting about homework, Hu Yongming suddenly asked: "Jiajia will be twenty after this year, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone glanced at Hu Jia first, and then fixed on the boy.
Perhaps it was because of the gazes cast by the crowd that the boy seemed less calm than before.
"Well, I'll be twenty next year." Hu Jia replied in a low voice.
"Zi Qian will be 23 years later, time is really fast, it is almost the age to get married." Hu Juan said, looking at her nephew.
"I'm here anytime, just wait for Jiajia to speak." Wang Ziqian smiled calmly on the surface, but looked at Hu Jia with anticipation.
Hu Jia didn't answer him, but just picked up the dish in front of him, put it in his own bowl, and tasted it.
Hu Yongjin looked at Hu Jia, and asked lightly, "You don't need to go back to school, do you?"
Hu Jia froze on the spot holding the chopsticks, and said after a few seconds, "I'm only a sophomore!"
Hu Yongjin said disapprovingly: "What's the matter, I remember that you like painting, or else you can study in an art academy in this city when you come back.
Hu Yongming added: "I think it's okay. You went to city A to study because of your father's work."
"Now that your father is back, you should also transfer back to the local area. It is always inconvenient for you to be a girl wandering alone. What's more, it doesn't matter whether you study or not. You should hurry up and do the things that need to be done. "
After speaking, he looked at Hu Yongjin, as if asking for his opinion.
Hu Yongjin nodded his head knowingly. They agreed on this matter.
Hu Jia never said a word, just continued to eat, as if what they were discussing had nothing to do with him.
The dinner table became extremely quiet at this time, so quiet that Hu Jia's hand holding the dishes trembled slightly. Everyone looked at her in unison as if waiting for her to answer.
This made Hu Jia feel as if he was being overwhelmed by a mountain.
At this moment, Mother Hu, who had always been indifferent, said, "Let Jiajia decide on this matter."
After Hu's mother finished speaking, Hu Jia seemed to have found her own safe haven. She finally summoned up the courage to say, "I want to think about my studies first, and I'll talk about the rest later."
When Wang Ziqian heard this, his smile froze on his face. The two big men were embarrassed to continue talking, so they had to cast their eyes on Hu Juan.
Hu Juan paused, and said: "Although freedom of love is advocated now, this matter was decided by the two fathers and Ziqian's grandfather... I have an idea, otherwise I will take advantage of Jiajia During the summer vacation, how about you and Ziqian to let off steam and relax together?"
Hu Yongming quickly nodded and echoed, "That's very good. Although Jiajia and Ziqian were childhood sweethearts since childhood, the two children haven't had much contact since the elder brother went to City A. Now Jiajia is at home on vacation and going out with Ziqian. Letting go is a good time to increase mutual affection."
"I don't think it's necessary. We've known each other since we were young. He's like my big brother." Hu Jia was extremely displeased when he heard what they said, and accidentally said what he kept in his heart.
This made Wang Ziqian on the side extremely embarrassed.
The grown-ups didn't take it seriously, what scene hadn't they seen?Hu Jia didn't mean that to Wang Ziqian, and they naturally knew it.
But these are not the point, the point is that the two of them must get married sooner or later, in addition to the agreement of the two deceased old people, it is also for the benefit of the two families.
Although the matter of fingertip marriage is no longer practiced in this society, for businessmen like them, marriage is an indispensable means for the benefit of the two families.
