Chapter 167 How can a goddaughter be as good as a daughter-in-law?

Xiang Wan saw Qi Zhen sitting aside and not talking much, so he went to Xiang Xiong's room to get some newspapers because he was afraid that he would be bored.

"Uncle Qi, I remember that you like to read newspapers. Here are a few. I don't know if you have read them."

Qi Zhen's expression softened a bit after hearing Xiang Wan's words. He took it in his hand, looked at it twice and said, "It just so happens that I haven't read these two newspapers yet. You are interested."

"It's okay if you haven't seen it, it's just to kill time," Xiang Wan was about to return to his seat after saying that, when he turned around and found Peng Qingliang sitting next to Gao Lan, who was playing with treasures.

It can be said that he was trying to sneak in every opportunity. As soon as his front legs left, someone was sitting on his back legs. He couldn't help Xiang Wan and had to go to the empty seat next to Qi Jin and sit down.

Qi Zhen's hand paused slightly while looking at the newspaper, and then continued to read the newspaper as if nothing had happened.

The moment Xiang Wan sat next to him, Qi Jin's expression became gentler. He turned to Xiang Wan, smiled gently, and whispered, "My mother likes Boss Peng very much."

Xiang Wan looked at Peng Qingliang over there and pursed his lips and smiled: "He has always been very popular with people of Auntie's age, and he tells a lot of interesting stories. Sometimes I am made laugh by him."

"My mother is rarely so happy. She is only so happy today and every time I meet you. My father is usually busy with work and I am rarely at home." After saying this, Qi Jin paused, his throat rolled up and down, and his eyes slightly

Looking at Xiang Wan expectantly, he continued: "If possible, you can go and sit at home more often when you are not busy. My mother likes you very much."

Xiang Wan also liked the gentle and quiet Gao Lan very much, and readily agreed: "Okay, I will talk to auntie whenever I have time."

"You will be a sophomore in high school next year."

Qi Jin wanted to speak again, but was interrupted by Qi Zhen who put down the newspaper and looked over.

"Well, I will be a sophomore in high school next year."

Qi Zhen nodded: "The second year of high school is more important for academic studies, and it is also a critical time for college entrance exams. If you have any questions that you don't understand, you can ask Xiao Jin. His academic performance is quite good."

"Well, my grades are indeed pretty good. If you want to preview in the future, I can give you the book. I made a lot of marks on it."

Xiang Wan didn't expect such a good thing, so he agreed without thinking: "Are you free during this period? I would like to borrow some high school textbooks for preview."

"You will be free at any time during this period. Please come and call home so I can find those textbooks."

"good."

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Qi Zhen continued to pick up the newspaper with great satisfaction.

Peng Qingliang, who was talking to Gao Lan, seemed to have noticed the situation on Qi Jin's side and said loudly: "Qi Jin, do you want to play chess? Uncle Xiang has Go here, let's play a game?"

Qi Jin first glanced at Xiang Wan and nodded in agreement.

Peng Qingliang stood up and opened the cabinet with familiarity, taking out Xiang Xiong's chessboard, and then took Xiang Wan and Qi Jin to the table next to them to play chess.

Gao Lan couldn't understand how to play chess, so he simply went back to the sofa and sat down. He stretched out his hand and tugged on Qi Zhen's sleeves, and asked in a low voice with a serious face: "Why didn't you agree with me just now to accept Xiao Wan as my goddaughter? Don't follow me.

I'm not stupid for saying what Xiao Jin said, I'm telling the truth!"

Qi Zhen looked at Gao Lan in surprise, and suddenly curled his lips: "You are so smart, why don't you take a guess?"

Gao Lan frowned for a moment and looked at the three people playing chess over there. He wandered around and said angrily: "How do I know what riddles you father and son are playing? What's wrong with Xiao Wan? It's rare for me to like a girl, and you guys still

If you don’t agree, I’ll sleep in the guest room tonight.”

Qi Zhen immediately snorted: "You haven't noticed at all how your son has been doing during this period? Did I refuse because I don't like Xiao Wan? You don't want the girl you like to be our daughter-in-law?"

"Say, daughter-in-law!" Gao Lan couldn't help shouting, covering her mouth with her hands and eyes full of disbelief. It took her a long time to recover from the shock, and she came to Qi Zhen's side and looked at Qi Jin and the other three while lowering her voice: "

Are you saying that Xiao Jin likes Xiao Wan? Is it true? When I asked him last time, he said he didn't like her. Could it be that you lied to me."

Qi Zhen shook the newspaper and said softly: "If you don't believe it, ask your son."

"Of course I have to ask him carefully, huh."

At the restaurant, Xiang Xiong began to ask everyone to eat.

After several people sat down, Peng Qingliang took the lead in opening the liquor and pouring a glass for each of the men present.

There was only soda at home, and thinking that Gao Lan didn't like drinking it, Xiang Wan poured some tea for her and kept it next to her, while he took a bottle of soda.

With Peng Qingliang here, the atmosphere would never be quiet, making everyone laugh. Sometimes even Qi Zhen, who was always serious, curled up his lips.

The only thing that puzzled Xiang Wan was Gao Lan. During the whole process, Gao Lan was more enthusiastic about him than before. The bowl was filled with Gao Lan's vegetables, which was very impressive.

The food cooked by Xiang Xiong was highly recognized by the Qi family, especially Gao Lan, who kept asking Xiang Xiong for advice on how to make it.

Originally, a few people were preparing to go home after dinner. There were especially many people visiting the house during the New Year. Since knowing Qi Jin's little thoughts, Gao Lan was not in a hurry to go back. He pulled Xiang Wan and sat on the sofa to talk.

Every word is filled with care.

Peng Qingliang and Qi Jin sat aside and talked about business matters. After drinking, Xiang Xiong and Qi Zhen became less restrained than usual. They went to the table to play chess.

Yin Zhengjiang was the only one in the audience, sitting silently drinking tea.

It was almost three o'clock when Qi Zhen's family just left.

After seeing off the reluctant Gao Lan, Xiang Wan and the others returned to the living room. Peng Qingliang lay half-ly on the sofa, his face full of exhaustion.

Xiang Xiong was so amused that he couldn't help but said: "Xiao Peng, it's not that serious. The Qi family is not a rich man. I think their family is quite kind."

"Uncle Xiang, that's just to be kind to you. You don't know. If it weren't for Xiao Wan's relationship, how could I have met such a big shot like Director Qi so easily? Even after working under Director Cheng for so many years, I haven't seen them as many times.

There are only a handful of them, but I have never had the chance to show my face in front of them, let alone talk to them. Now that I finally have the opportunity to eat and talk, I have to try my best. If the relationship is established, in the future I will

Xiaowan will have more opportunities to make money."

The two of them had never mentioned Qi Zhen's status to Xiang Xiong before, and Peng Qingliang was talking about it today. Fortunately, Xiang Xiong didn't have a particular idea about those levels, so he didn't ask anything except laughing twice.

Xiang Wan walked over and kicked someone, and said angrily: "I need to lie down on the bed."

Peng Qingliang said oh, got up and walked to the guest room. He was really tired today. He went fishing in the river before dawn in the morning. When he came back, he kept talking, racking his brains to think of interesting things to say to Gao Lan. Fortunately, the effect was

Very good, at least Gao Lan allowed herself to be called aunt.

He slept until six o'clock before Xiang Wan woke him up for dinner. After dinner, the two of them discussed in detail in the living room the construction of a house and the clothing factory adding limited-edition clothes to warm the baby, and then went back to their rooms to sleep.
