Chapter 49: Parents' Day

May 8 was fine

In the morning, Li Shenxing and Xiaoli sat at the dinner table and ate breakfast together.

"Will you go over by yourself today, or will I wait for you to go over?" asked Li Shenxing after taking a sip of milk.

"It's still going to be busy today, so Oba will go over first, I'm sorry. Hyo-ri said apologetically.

As a daughter, she doesn't have time to see her parents, so Li Shenxing usually goes to her parents to fulfill her filial piety on her behalf, and she brings a lot of supplements every time she goes.

"I'm sorry for what's there, don't worry, I'll remember to say more nice things for you. Li Shenxing deliberately distorted her meaning.

Today is Parents' Day in South Korea, so Lee Shin-xing and Hyo-ri have to go back to their parents' house to have dinner with their parents.

It is a national holiday unique to Korea, "Parents' Day", and it is a festival established in Korea throughout the year to give special thanks to parents. Unlike us, South Korea merges Father's Day with Mother's Day on the same day instead of separating them separately. As early as 1956, it was customary to celebrate Parents' Day, but it was not until 1973 that Parents' Day officially became a legal holiday in Korea.

Every year when "Parents' Day" is approaching, there is a significant increase in the number of people selling flowers on the streets of Korea, because most people buy a bouquet of flowers to give to their parents on this day as a token of their gratitude. Among the many flowers, carnations and gladiolus are the most common, because they represent respect and love for the elders, and are the best choice to symbolize their filial piety.

As a country that values tradition and etiquette, Koreans place a high value on filial piety. Therefore, on this day, no matter how busy they are, Koreans buy flowers and gifts to visit their parents home. When visiting their parents, the children first bow to their parents, which is the traditional Korean "kneeling ceremony" to express their gratitude to their parents. Flowers and gifts were then offered. Sometimes, they also sit around their parents and receive their teachings about traditional etiquette and culture.

With the change of the times, the forms of gifts that children give to their parents are becoming more and more diverse. Cash, filial piety travel (children travel with their parents), and performance tickets have gradually become new choices for children. However, no matter how the form of gift changes, the love and gratitude that children have for their parents will never change.

After breakfast, Hyo-ri took the bag and went out to the recording studio first, and the record was really busy lately, and the record was about to be released.

After Li Shenxing cleaned up the dining table, he began to tidy up the hygiene of the house, if you don't be diligent in raising cats or dogs, then your house will be over, no matter where you sit, you can stick to your hair.

It's still early and I'm not in a hurry to go out, so Li Shenxing brushed Mimi and the prince very leisurely. Today is the last day of filming for the show, and someone will come and remove the camera at home.

Around nine o'clock, the doorbell rang.

Li Shen walked to open the door and let the staff in, and there were two people behind him carrying a square box wrapped in white paper, which looked like a picture frame. The PD of the show said that it was a painting made by a young artist for Hyo-ri, and he hoped she would like it, and Lee Shin-xing thanked him on behalf of Hyo-ri, and then they began to dismantle the camera at home.

Compared with the installation, it is much faster to dismantle, and it was all cleaned up in about half an hour, and after saying goodbye to them, Li Shenxing closed the door and returned to the sofa, lying there very unimaged, and then shouted: "Wow, it's over, it's over, and it's finally over this damn surveillance life." ”

After lying down for a while, he relaxed his spirits, which made him suffocate a lot these days, and then Li Shenxing went upstairs to change into a simple set of clothes and came down, filled the cats' lunch and dinner with cat bowls, brought gifts for his parents-in-law, and went out.

When passing by the supermarket, Li Shenxing also went in to buy some things.

Slowly park the car by the door, take something from the passenger seat, close the door, walk to the door and press the doorbell.

The door soon opened, and the mother-in-law looked like she was going out with her handbag, "Mom, where are you going?" asked Li Shenxing.

"Ouch~ It's prudent! You go in first, and my mother will buy some vegetables, and I'll make you something to eat." Seeing that it was the little son-in-law who came, the mother-in-law patted his hand happily and said.

Li Shenxing took his mother-in-law's hand, shook the bag in his hand and said: "Doll mother, don't go grocery shopping, you see I have already bought it, I will cook at noon today, let the doll mother rest and rest, Xiaoli has been busy recently, and I can only come over at night." After showing the food in his mother-in-law, he took his mother-in-law and walked into the house.

"Then how can it be, it's good for the puppet mother to get it, you and the old man can watch TV, Xiaoli's girl doesn't have to worry about her. Hearing Li Shenxing say this, the mother-in-law is very happy, or the little son-in-law will hurt people!

Talking to his mother-in-law and entering the house, "I'm here for my father and second sister, Canzhen~~, don't you say hello to your uncle?" The nephew hid next to his mother's second sister, more shy.

The mother-in-law said: "Chanzhen, if you don't say hello, your brother-in-law won't give you a gift!"

I don't know if it's the relationship between my mother-in-law or the power of the gift, Chanzhen whispered: "Uncle, hello!"

However, Li Shenxing really brought a few little nephews' toys, took out the gifts from the bag, and stretched them out in front of Canzhen, "Look, what is this?"

Chan Zhen immediately took it happily, "Wow~~ It's pororo, thank you, uncle." This time it was louder, and then I got the gift and ran to the side to play.

"Buy gifts for the children again, the family is much better, what a waste of money!" Although the mother-in-law said this, she was also happy that the son-in-law got along with the child so well, liked the child so much, and would definitely be a good father when he had a child. Alas, what she is most worried about now is the girl Xiaoli, who is busy with her career as a singer and doesn't want to have children too early.

"It's okay, it won't cost a few bucks, anyway, how can Chanzhen behave. Li Shenxing pulled his mother-in-law to the sofa and sat down, "Puppet mother, you just wait for a while to eat, and you don't have to worry about lunch." Let's watch TV with my father, by the way, this is a gift for your second elder, please accept it. Li Shenxing brought his father-in-law Moutai liquor from China, a jade cigarette holder and some tea, and his mother-in-law made his own health wine and a lot of saffron.

"Mom, you just listen to it, today is your holiday, just rest and rest, I'll help my brother-in-law, you can rest assured." The second sister also went to the kitchen after speaking.

The father-in-law patted his mother-in-law's hand at this time and said, "You, just listen to the children, it's not enough to worry about it for a lifetime!"

Seeing Li Shenxing take the dishes out of the bag, the second sister asked, "Shenxing, what are you going to cook, I'll help you." ”

"Today I will cook Chinese food for you, and the second sister will help me wash the dishes. ”

"I don't know how to cook Chinese food, so I'll have to wash the vegetables." ”

"Second sister, how many people are eating at home at noon?"

"There's no one else, just a few of us, they only come in the evening, and everyone goes out to eat in the evening. ”

"Shen Xing, what is this, is it rice wine?" the second sister asked as she took out two large lunch boxes and two large drink bottles.
