Chapter 378: Visiting the Xu Family
"Xu Li, the sun is drying your butt, it's time to get up. Liancheng stood beside the bed, holding his hands, and looked at Xu Li on the bed with a serious face.
Xu Li covered her head with a quilt and made a "hmm" sound from the whole quilt, indicating that she had not woken up yet.
Liancheng frowned, and pulled down the quilt on Xu Li's body little by little. Xu Li watched a movie last night and saw that she didn't go to bed until midnight, she felt that she had just fallen asleep and was called by Liancheng to get up, of course there were a thousand and ten thousand who were unwilling.
Xu Li opened her confused eyes, picked up her mobile phone and looked at it, and it was only "5:00" on the phone, and Xu Li was not happy at the moment.
"Liancheng, what are you doing, it's only what time is it, you have to call me up, we haven't gone to work so early." ”
Liancheng sat down beside Xu Li and asked her to lean on herself, "Lili, let me ask you, what day is today?"
This "waking up in the morning" question made Xu Li start to think. Liancheng's birthday hasn't arrived yet, and his birthday has already passed a long time ago, and the anniversary is not at this time. After thinking for a long time, Xu Li said tremblingly, "World, World Love Teeth Day?"
Liancheng knocked Xu Li's head, but his movements were very gentle, "Are you stupid, today is the day I am going to visit your father and your mother at your house." ”
It turned out that because of this, Xu Li was made to cry and laugh by Liancheng, "Ah Cheng, it's just a visit, don't be so nervous." Wake me up so early, it's only 5 o'clock, it's still early. I haven't woken up yet, and I want to sleep a little longer. ”
Liancheng saw that Xu Li was going to go down and continue to sleep, so he quickly scooped her up and asked her to sit down. "Lili, we have to get ready early, now that we're eating, let's go to the mall early to buy some things, the first time I visit like this, I can't go in with empty hands. ”
Xu Li sighed helplessly, "Ah Cheng, you are too nervous, even if we get up now, the mall has not yet opened." ”
Liancheng couldn't resist Xu Li, thinking that what Xu Li said also made some sense, so he had to compromise. "Okay, you can sleep again, and I'll call you again in two hours. Xu Li automatically blocked the second half of Liancheng's sentence and continued to sleep under the covers.
In the end, Xu Li was still pulled up by Liancheng to eat. After eating, Liancheng took Xu Li to the mall. In the car, Liancheng turned his head and asked Xu Li, "I have some tea and antiques brought by customers here, and I also bought some skin care products and bags and the like, let's go to the mall now, do you want to see if we want to buy something?"
Xu Li looked at Liancheng with wide eyes, "What, you actually bought so many things secretly from me." Don't worry, rest assured, my dad loves tea, and my mom likes these bags and the like, and you can be regarded as voting for them this time. Don't worry, my mom and dad will love it. ”
Liancheng nodded, "That's fine, let's go to the supermarket and buy some supplements, food and fruits, etc., so that it looks better and won't be too shabby." ”
Xu Li covered her mouth and smiled, "Director Lian of Sima Group, it won't be shabby, don't worry." Xu Li tilted her head and looked at Liancheng, who was driving seriously beside her, "Director Lian, Director Lian, are you a little nervous?"
Liancheng's hand holding the steering wheel tightened, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, "How can it be, do you think I look like I'm nervous? Usually I'm also a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and I have presided over all kinds of meetings, so how can I be nervous about such a small visit." You see me like this now, do you think I'm nervous?"
Xu Li looked at Liancheng as if she had been caught, and laughed, "Hahahahaha, Ah Cheng, you look so cute now." Xu Li watched Liancheng say so many words to hide her nervousness and was discovered by her, and laughed.
Liancheng looked at Xu Li's unbearable appearance and touched his nose. Although he had a hard mouth, he was really a little nervous when he went to Xu Li's house this time. Not to mention his father's previous attitude towards him, just visiting his girlfriend's house was enough for him to be nervous.
Xu Li smiled enough, and comforted Liancheng with a serious face, "Ah Cheng, it's really okay, you see that we have experienced so many winds and rains, so let's go and see what our parents are afraid of." And my dad called me and asked me to bring you back for dinner, which means that he has started to accept you, so you don't have to be nervous. Besides, you're so good, who wouldn't like you?"
Liancheng nodded, and took advantage of the gap in the red light to reach out and shake Xu Li's hand, as if he could gain unlimited strength.
In the end, the two of them went to the supermarket to buy a lot of milk, fruits, *** and so on and went to Xu Li's house, Xu Li's family, and Liancheng, the Xu family's mansion, also came twice, so they were not strangers.
Xu Li called home early, and when Liancheng and Xu Li arrived, Xu Lei and Mrs. Xu were already waiting at the door. Mrs. Xu knew that Xu Li was going to bring Liancheng over today, so she started to work early. In fact, she has always liked the child Liancheng, but her husband is really machismo, not to mention that Liancheng's background is not compatible with their Xu family, and she can't refute her husband. Now it's okay, this Xu Lei doesn't know how to figure it out, and she actually asked Xu Li to bring Liancheng home for dinner, she is naturally very happy. Early in the morning, I asked the nanny to go to the vegetable market to buy the freshest vegetables and came back, and she cooked them herself and began to cook all kinds of dishes. I just received a call from Xu Li saying that she and Liancheng were almost there, and hurriedly pulled Xu Lei out to greet her.
Xu Lei couldn't pull his face, but his wife insisted, so he could only stand at the door with Mrs. Xu with a black face.
The car drove all the way to the door of the Xu family's mansion, and Liancheng and Xu Li got out of the car, carrying large bags of things. Xu Li saw her parents standing at the gate to greet them, and she began to shout, "Dad, Mom." ”
Mrs. Xu saw that Xu Li was walking towards them with Liancheng in her arms, and she was carrying a lot of things in her hand, and she was even more happy in her heart.
"Oh you two, come on, what are you doing with so many things. I told Lili that she had everything at home, and she didn't lack anything. ”
"Uncle, aunt. Liancheng carried the things in his hand into the house one by one, and greeted Xu Lei and Mrs. Xu politely.
"Oh, Mom, I told Liancheng that he doesn't have to buy so much, he has to buy these. Xu Li held Mrs. Xu and said happily.
Liancheng took out a box of beautifully packaged tea leaves from a pile of gifts, and respectfully handed it to Xu Lei, "Uncle, this is the best Pu'er tea brick from Yunnan, which was specially brought back to me by a friend of mine from Yunnan, you have time to taste it." ”
Mrs. Xu knew that Xu Lei had always looked down on Liancheng's background, and she was afraid that her husband would embarrass Liancheng too much, and when the time came, the two of them couldn't get over it, so they hurriedly came out to play a round, "Oh, your Uncle Xu is the most fond of tea, and among all the teas, only I love Pu'er tea, but your gift has been sent to your Uncle Xu's heart, right, Old Xu?"
Xu Lei saw the Pu'er tea brick in Liancheng's hand, he is a person who understands tea, and he can see at a glance that it must be difficult to buy good tea, although his face is not obvious, in fact, his heart has long been happy, pretending to take the gift seriously, and coughed lightly, "Come in and sit for a while, you can start eating in a while." ”
Hearing Xu Lei say this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Liancheng took out a beautifully packaged paper bag and handed it to Mrs. Xu, and said with a smile, "Auntie, this is the new Hermes model this year, and it was Lili who helped pick it out, see if you like it or not." ”
When Mrs. Xu heard Liancheng say this, she was very happy, she was not interested in it on weekdays, she just liked to buy bags. I have long heard that Hermes has a new model, but there have been things at home in the past few days, and I don't have time to buy it, but I didn't expect Liancheng to send it to her today. Mrs. Xu took the paper bag handed by Liancheng, took it out and looked at it carefully, "It's really good, Ah Cheng, this kid really has a heart." ”
Liancheng was very happy to see the gifts he chose, Xu Lei and Mrs. Xu, and his heart was slightly relaxed.
Mrs. Xu saw that the time was almost up, and hurriedly beckoned Liancheng and Xu Li to the dining room. "Let's go, you're both hungry, hurry up and eat. I made you pork rib soup, but it has been stewed since 7 a.m., and now you can eat it. ”
Xu Li looked at the bowl of pork rib soup on the table, her eyes lit up. "Ah Cheng, my mother is really good to you, she is rare to go to the kitchen next time, and when she saw that you were coming, he also stewed pork rib soup for you, and this treatment is the same as mine. ”
Mrs. Xu knocked on Xu Li's head, "The stinky girl knows how to talk nonsense." As he spoke, he turned to Liancheng again, "Ah Cheng, don't be restrained, just like in your own home, eat more." Look, you're so thin, you need to eat a little more. ”
Liancheng did not refuse the dishes brought by Mrs. Xu, and did not forget to praise Mrs. Xu's craftsmanship while eating, "Auntie, the dishes you make are really delicious." ”
Mrs. Xu originally liked Liancheng, but now that Liancheng is so handsome and sensible, she likes it even more.
Xu Li saw that her mother liked Liancheng so much, and she couldn't help but slander, it was really her mother-in-law who was more and more happy when she saw her son-in-law.
Xu Lei saw that his wife was so attentive to Liancheng, and he couldn't help but feel a little left out in his heart, and subconsciously coughed.
This time was quickly noticed by Liancheng sensitively, he looked at Xu Lei's face, and hurriedly put a piece of shrimp in the small bowl in front of Xu Lei, and said with a smile: "Uncle, eating more shrimp is good for your health." ”
Mrs. Xu also quickly reacted that she was too enthusiastic about Liancheng and snubbed her husband a little, so she hurriedly put a bowl of soup in front of Xu Lei, "Husband, drink more soup, it's good for your health." Xu Lei's face palpitated slightly.
After the meal, the four of them sat together in the living room, drinking tea and chatting, a lively scene. However, everyone is a person in a circle, and it stands to reason that parents should know some about Liancheng's family situation, but Liancheng is also a well-known person in this circle, and they are all clear about his family's situation, so it's not interesting to say this now. After sitting for a long time, Xu Li was a little bored, and suddenly proposed, "Why don't we play mahjong together." ”
The three members of the Xu family are all people who like mahjong, but because there is only one family of three people who are missing one all year round, and Xu Lei does not have so much time because of work, he often can't form a card game. Now that several people have free time to come out, Cuocuo Mahjong is a good medicine to pass the time.
Seeing that the three members of the Xu family all looked at him in unison, Liancheng hurriedly said, "I'm fine, I can play some mahjong." ”
