Chapter 534: Pick-up
I heard that the girl was coming to the capital tomorrow, and the family was not even in the mood to eat.
Happy, excited.
"Mom, I'm going to eat chicken legs. Li Erbao held his special plastic bowl with a gourd baby pattern, and ran to Liu Jinju's side.
"Eat, eat, eat, you know to eat, I didn't see the adults discussing big things, your uncle's daughter-in-law is coming tomorrow." Liu Jinju said as he stretched out his chopsticks and put two roast chicken thighs into his bowl, and gestured: "Eat while eating, don't bother me." ”
"Oh......" Li Erbao looked stupid, and said in his heart: Isn't this the point of eating, my uncle and his daughter-in-law are coming, what does it have to do with eating?
"Brother Erbao, give me a chicken leg. At the threshold of the hall, Kiki lifted her red plastic bowl with a flower fairy pattern and begged.
"Don't give it, my mother won't clip it to me, give it to you, and I'll be gone. Li Erbao covered the mouth of the bowl with his small hand and said.
Next Second......
"Woo woo woo ......"
Kiki cried because she found out that Brother Erbao didn't love her anymore.
In his heart, he can't even stand up to a chicken leg?
"Oh, what's going on?" Li Dongmei hurriedly got up and ran over.
"Woooooooooo......oo Brother Erbao won't give me chicken legs. ”
"Oh, don't cry, what's there to cry about? ”
"I don't, I just want the bowl of Brother Erbao. ”
“……”
Li Erbao finally lost the "mother brand" chicken legs, and both of them were gone.
It's not okay not to give it, because his father's fierce eyes have already glared at him.
Of course, he actually earned it. Because my sister-in-law re-clamped it for him, one clip is still three.
"What a cryer, you cry, you cry again, what else can you do but cry? hehe...... I have three now, and you're two. Li Erbao died.
"Woo woo woo ......"
"Li Erbao!"
Li Yajun's angry shout frightened Li Erbao and knew that he was done with the calf.
The result can be imagined, in order to calm Kiki's storm, he lost one of the "sister-in-law" chicken legs in his bowl again.
According to his father, "you have to let your sister go."
So he had to eat one less than Kiki.
Why?
What kind of fallacy is this?
It's like she's going to cry?
Me too!
He sat on the threshold and pondered for a long time, sighed, picked up a chicken leg from the bowl, and gnawed on it through gritted teeth.
Damn, I can't cry!
"Then we'll have to get ready. At the dinner table, Li Chunlan said.
"Is that not it?" Zhao Dacheng nodded and said: "Not only do you have to prepare, but you also have to prepare well, the first time a girl comes to the door, according to our customs, in fact, there are still some exquisite." Right, mother?"
Hu Xiuying smiled and nodded.
"Well, tomorrow isn't the weekend, and the supermarket shouldn't be very busy, so let's just take a day off and take care of this matter." Otherwise, the first time the girl passed the door, the family was not popular, and it was really unacceptable. Li Chunlan clapped his head.
If Li Yamin is not here, she is the eldest sister, and when she says this, others naturally dare not object, and it does make sense.
"Xiaodong, you still have to tell us what kind of family background, personality, and what kind of food does the girl like, and if there are any taboo things, we should prepare in advance. Li Dongmei said.
Women's minds are always delicate, and these things have been thought of.
However, from then on, I can feel that my family attaches great importance to this matter and cares about myself. Li Yadong felt warm in his heart, smiled and waved his hand: "There are not so many rules, and it is not the daughter of a big family, it is similar to our family, they are all people who have come over from a hard time, it is easy to deal with, just let us eat like this at night." As for the personality, it's still quite cheerful, you don't have to worry too much, she will have a relationship, the kind that everyone loves, and you should be able to talk about it. ”
"That's good. Li Dongmei suddenly became calm.
"The same cannot be said. At this time, Li Yajun said: "After all, the girl is a person who has seen the world, and she came back from the United States, we have to pick up what we should pick up, and it is one thing not to lose face to Xiaodong, and we can't lose the face of our old Li family." ”
He is not a particular person, but he is always unambiguous about important things at home. A man with a deep sense of family, in some ways, is even deeper than Li Yadong.
"Hmm. Hu Xiuying nodded and said: "I think what the runner-up said is reasonable, since you all ask for leave tomorrow, it is not bad for manpower, or follow the rules, how to pick up how to pick up." ”
That's what it means to go through a lot of work.
Li Yadong actually felt that it was unnecessary, with his relationship with Miss Su, there should be no need to see each other like this. However, since the old lady opened her mouth, it was okay.
The meal didn't end until nine o'clock in the evening, but in fact, the meal didn't move much, and they went to talk and discuss tomorrow's arrangements.
It's really on the line, and it's the first priority of the family year.
This is destined to be a sleepless night, whether the others are asleep or not, Li Yadong doesn't know, but he really doesn't feel sleepy at all.
There were two pillows on the bed, one was held in his arms and the other was stuffed in his crotch, and his mind was full of the shadow of Miss Su......
Following.
The family got up very early, and they didn't have breakfast, and the buns, oil cakes, fritters and other things bought from outside, the family itself ordered milk, and it was good to eat it.
After eating, everyone began to divide the work.
Li Yajun, Zhao Dacheng, and Huang Guodong, three young and strong laborers, are in charge of purchasing and purchasing.
Not only do you have to buy good wine and food, but you also have to buy some lanterns, ribbons, fireworks, and firecrackers, which you also need to use during the Chinese New Year, so you just buy them together.
Li Chunlan, Li Dongmei, and Liu Jinju, the three women with sharp legs and feet, their task is to purchase door-to-door gifts.
This is also the rule in my hometown: if a son brings a partner home, the girl will come for the first time, and a new dress must be indispensable, and a red envelope must be sealed.
Of course, this is the practice of poor families.
The rich are more generous, and things like gold and silver jewelry have to be given a small sample.
It also has the meaning of trapping other girls.
And Li's family is obviously not an ordinary rich family, according to Hu Xiuying's instructions, the three of them have important responsibilities, not only to buy good brand clothes, but also to match the three golds.
If she has no return, she will be rigid.
As for Hu Xiuying and the old couple of the Huang family, they stayed at home, in addition to taking care of the children, they also put up some hard dishes in advance.
For example, using the original stock ingredients in the refrigerator at home, they made a pot of "dragon and phoenix soup", which was cooked in the kitchen casserole early in the morning.
What is Dragon Phoenix Soup?
Doves with snakes are also.
A bowl of race immortals.
Li Yadong is undoubtedly the most leisurely, and his family asked him to recuperate, and then rushed over to pick up the plane when he arrived.
It just so happened that he really didn't sleep much last night, and after breakfast, he went to bed again and had a good night's sleep.
I slept in a daze, and almost delayed the big thing, thanks to my mother beating him out of bed.
After dressing up a little, changing into a dark blue straight suit that he usually doesn't wear much, and putting on a black tweed coat outside, Li Yadong ran to the yard of the second sister's house and launched the black Range Rover that they specially stayed behind and washed spotlessly.
There is still a white Range Rover at home, which has been driven back from the square, and it belongs to his fourth sister, but the driver's license has not yet arrived, and it is mainly his second sister who is driving.
……
Capital International Airport.
Li Yadong's time is actually just right, but after entering the airport, who is there at the exit of the international terminal?
I didn't even see a ghost, and there was no doubt that the plane was late.
This kind of thing seems impossible to eradicate, even thirty years later, it is very common.
I found the information board and looked at it, it showed "estimated to be 30 minutes late", but I don't have to turn back, I just hope this "estimate" can be reliable.
Wandering aimlessly beside the exit of the station, a middle-aged couple staring at the exit attracted Li Yadong's attention.
Although he had only met these two people once, he still had some impressions. Without him, because they are Guo Qi's parents.
When I sent Miss Su abroad, I was also in this terminal and had a glimpse of it.
Since he entrusted the relationship to get Miss Su back, how could he forget Guo Qi?
So yes, Guo Qi will also arrive in Beijing with Miss Su today.
It's just that I didn't expect that Guo Qi's parents would come from the magic capital to pick up the plane.
Li Yadong guessed that Guo Qi didn't know if he was afraid, if he had known, he wouldn't have to be with Miss Su. Just take a plane to the magic capital, which also has an international airport.
"Uncle, aunt?" Li Yadong paced over, not daring to be 100% sure.
"You are?"
It's normal that they don't know themselves, after all, it was a few years ago, and Li Yadong thinks that his memory is better than that of ordinary people.
"Li Yadong. ”
"Oh!" the two couples suddenly realized that this name was by no means unfamiliar to them, and they did not dare to forget it in their memory, the reason why they were able to talk to their son on the phone from time to time was all thanks to the help of others, and the fact that their son was able to live in a luxury apartment in the United States was also a favor from others. Besides, the son's ability to return to China ahead of schedule this time is also a matter of others.
The gratitude in my heart is beyond words.
Father Guo grabbed his hand tightly and said excitedly: "Yadong, you take such good care of our family Guo Qi, we ...... I really don't know how to thank you. ”
"Uncle is serious, Xiaoqi and I are good brothers from the same dormitory, it's too much to talk about gratitude, I just went out of society first and mixed up two years early, and the brothers just do what they can, it's really not worth together. Li Yadong shook his head with a smile.
"That's a good thing to say, but you're ...... to our family Guo Qi arranged a house for him to live in, and installed an international call for him to call, and even his usual food was paid for by you, and now he has the opportunity to return to China to visit his relatives...... Even if you do these things, your own brothers may not be able to do it!" Guo's father said with great emotion.
The expression on Guo's mother's face on the side was also full of gratitude, and she said heavily, "My Guo Qi can have a good brother like you, it is really a blessing for several lifetimes of cultivation." ”
"Uncle, aunt, it's nothing. Li Yadong was a little embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again, "You don't understand the relationship between me and Xiaoqi, I really don't care about this, I don't believe it, you will see later, that kid will be called a person at most after they meet, absolutely no half of a word of thanks, that kind of thing is too much to say, so you don't have to be like this." ”
"Okay, good, that's what you said, thank you for coming and thanking, but it seems to be out of sight. Guo's father smiled, suddenly thought of something, hurriedly lifted a blue cloth bag on the ground, and said: "Yadong, this is Guo Qi's beef patty, he has loved this bite since he was a child, you also try one?"
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized, browned beef patty covered with white sesame seeds from the two-layer plastic bag and handed it over.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, from the magic capital to the capital, thousands of kilometers, and they still bring their son's favorite food made by themselves.
"Okay, let's try one. Li Yadong smiled and stretched out his hand to take it.
Take a big bite and praise it.
In fact, how delicious can it be, something that has been left for a few days?
But he really felt very fragrant, and his heart was fragrant.
