Chapter 42: Allergies

Thanksgiving Day is approaching in a blink of an eye, and Li Xuannon, who is busy with her studies in the United States, also took advantage of the holiday to come back to accompany her family. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Of course, in Li Xuannong's eyes, Zhao Xiaoting is not a family member, so she is still as cold as ever, and Zhao Xiaoting is also very interested in not provoking her, and they are cold to each other, fortunately, the sister-in-law and the fourth brother mediated in the middle, so that the atmosphere at home will not be embarrassing.

Of course, Zhao Xiaoting and Li Xuannon are not always idle at home, they both have their own lives. Zhao Xiaoting began to work as an auditor in Yang Jian's class, and often had to go out to class; And Li Xuannon also has her own small circle in Hong Kong, going out to meet a friend to chat or something, but the two don't have too much intersection.

Thanksgiving Day even has a holiday in Hong Kong, and Li Zhihe has long ordered everyone to go home for a reunion dinner, so the family is particularly lively on this day. The second sister-in-law Xu Qingqing also came with Xiaoxian in her arms, and the relationship between her and the second brother seemed to be much closer, with a happy smile on her face that she had never seen before.

Since the wedding, Zhao Xiaoting and Xu Qingqing have gradually become familiar with each other, although they are not friends, but at least they are not as indifferent as before, and occasionally the two will ask out to sit and chat. Second, Xu Qingqing had been in the UK for many years and studied European literature, and their views and opinions were often very different during the conversation, but they could understand and even feel that they had benefited a lot. So Zhao Xiaoting hugged Xiaoxian to tease him, and Xu Qingqing was also very willing.

"The genes of this family are really strong, Xiaoxian will definitely be a handsome guy in the future!" Zhao Xiaoting teased Xiaoxian while chatting with her second sister-in-law. The whole family gathered in the living room to talk, while Li Xuannon was busy in the kitchen, she insisted on giving everyone a delicious Thanksgiving meal, and even her sister-in-law was not allowed to help.

"It's better to read more books if you're handsome, he's getting more and more naughty now!" Xu Qingqing is half sweet and half "complaining".

"You must read more and be handsome, study to cultivate temperament, and look handsome and eye-catching!" Zhao Xiaoting took a petal of orange for Xiaoxian and stuffed it into his hand.

"Your requirements are really high, is it really because of your eye-catching eyes that you married the third child?" Xu Qingqing teased.

"Admittedly, that's part of the reason!" Zhao Xiaoting replied mischievously. Although the two sat close to each other and their voices were not loud, they were still caught by the others and turned their eyes to each other.

"When the third sister-in-law said this, my confidence increased greatly! Handsome is also a kind of capital! Li Zezhen said triumphantly that he liked the relaxed and happy atmosphere at home.

"Handsome can't be eaten as a meal!" Li Zhihe broke his good mood with one bite, but his face was also full of smiles, and it was obvious that he was joking.

"I'm not just handsome!" Li Zezhen argued unwillingly, "Second brother proves that I have a lot of blood and sweat in the company!" ”

"Well, not only blood and sweat, but also tears and saliva!" Li Zeqi humorously came to such a sentence.

Everyone was amused by Li Zeqi's humor, and even Xiaoxian, who was more than a year old, grinned and laughed with everyone. Li Zezhen poked the little guy's soft bun face absentmindedly.

"Xiaoting likes children so much, she should have one herself." The little mother's shrill voice was a little harsh, but it attracted everyone's attention.

"Bihua is right." Li Zhihe nodded approvingly, "Although you have not been married for a long time, you are not young for the third child, and it is always good to have a child early." When I was your age, the second child was born long ago. ”

Zhao Xiaoting glanced at Li Zeyuan, to be honest, since she learned something from Eric, their previous relationship has become very delicate, or her mentality has become strange, so the two of them have lived their own lives for a while, and rarely ask each other.

"It's busy right now, let's talk about it later!" Li Zeyuan replied nonchalantly, not looking at Zhao Xiaoting at all.

Li Zezhen was active in this regard, shouting: "I hope that the third sister-in-law will give birth to a daughter as soon as possible, so that I can take my nephews and nieces of the golden boy and jade girl for a dashing ride!" ”

"Sons and daughters are good, you and Qingqing should also work hard, and add a younger brother or sister to Xiaoxian as soon as possible!" Li Zhihe not only grabbed Li Zeyuan and Zhao Xiaoting to talk about things, but also urged Xu Qingqing that they were also fair.

"Let's finish chatting and enjoy the Thanksgiving meal I cooked for you!" Xuannon came out of the kitchen and interrupted the ongoing conversation, but everyone was grateful that she had come to the rescue, because they all knew that the topic would break the rare harmony if it continued.

When we came to the table, everyone was even more surprised, and the table was full of sumptuous Chinese dishes! Even the sister-in-law couldn't believe that her daughter was so capable.

"I did all this, and they were just helping me. Come and try my craft! Li Xuannon pressed her grandfather and mother to the chair and personally sandwiched the food for them.

"I didn't expect my little princess to have such a virtuous side!" Li Zhihe said with emotion.

"I'm not a little princess anymore, please call me Chef, maybe I'll open my own Chinese restaurant in the United States in the future!" Li Xuannon looked proud.

"If you want to open a restaurant or go back to Hong Kong to open it, it's closer!" The sister-in-law patted her hand with a loving face. Since Li Xuannong came back, the smile on her sister-in-law's face has increased, and her expression has become much richer.

"Just by saying that, maybe I'll have other interests after a while!"

"You're just a person who can't settle down......"

The mother and daughter chattered, and the others ate separately. The food is indeed delicious, much higher than Zhao Xiaoting's craftsmanship, after being asked by Li Zhihe before, she was a little absent-minded when she ate, drank a bowl of chicken soup, and found that there was something wrong, but she couldn't remember.

"Gee, do you put pepper in this chicken broth?" Li Zezhen asked with a bitter face.

"Yes, pepper is a warm stomach and dampness, and it is best to put it in chicken broth!" Li Xuannon explained.

"Mother Wang called the doctor over!" Li Zeyuan suddenly stood up, took Zhao Xiaoting's hand and commanded as he walked.

Everyone set their eyes on Li Xuannon, especially Li Zezhen: "Although I don't like pepper, it's nothing for my body to eat it, but Xuannon, you should know that the third sister-in-law is allergic to pepper, and since the third sister-in-law moved in, there has never been pepper at home!" ”

"Zezhen, how can you talk to Xuannon! Xuannon probably didn't mean to. Wang Mom, where did the pepper come from? Zhang Bihua reprimanded her son, but she didn't let go of pursuing the matter.

"This ...... This one...... Madam, I don't know! There is no pepper in the spice cabinet at home. Wang's mother ran over in a panic and explained that she was washing vegetables and dishes for Li Xuannong in the kitchen.

"I bought pepper by the way when I was shopping for vegetables, how did I know that my third sister-in-law is allergic to pepper, and we haven't had a few meals together." Li Xuannong couldn't get used to Zhang Bihua's actions, and took the initiative to take the responsibility on herself.

"Xuannong is not familiar with Xiaoting, so it doesn't matter if you don't know. But I don't want a next time! Patriarch Li Zhihe spoke to settle the dispute. Although Zhang Bihua didn't speak anymore on the surface, she was extremely dissatisfied in her heart, Li Xuannon, a little girl, often embarrassed herself with her special identity, and Li Zhihe protected her tightly, thinking that Zhao Xiaoting would take away some of Li Zhihe's love for Li Xuannong after entering the door, but he didn't expect him to still defend her.

Because of this incident, the Thanksgiving family feast broke up unhappily. Dr. Xie arrived soon, Zhao Xiaoting changed into loose pajamas and lay flat on the bed, she was now having difficulty breathing, and her face was slightly blue. Her allergic reaction was more severe, bronchospasm and even anaphylactic shock. Li Zeyuan had heard Zhao Xiaoting describe her allergic reaction before, but it was the first time he had seen her in person, and Dr. Xie didn't expect her allergic reaction to be so serious, but fortunately, the medicines she brought were relatively complete. After the injection, she was given oxygen and intravenous drip to make her feel better.

"It's really rare to have such a serious allergic reaction as Grandma Sanshao, and we should pay more attention to let her not come into contact with allergens in the future, if you don't have time to seek medical treatment, she is likely to die of suffocation." Dr. Xie is their family's personal doctor, who has served for many years, and his medical skills and reputation are very good.

After seeing Dr. Xie off, Li Zeyuan sat on the edge of the bed and looked at her sleeping face. He noticed Zhao Xiaoting's abnormality during this time, but she didn't ask him if she didn't say it, as if nothing had happened. But in his heart, everything has changed, not overnight, but gradually changing his views and minds.

The people downstairs all stood up to inquire about the situation when they saw Dr. Xie coming down, and they were relieved to learn that they had been properly treated. Especially the sister-in-law, she knew that her daughter didn't like Zhao Xiaoting very much, no matter what the reason, since her daughter didn't like it, she didn't force it, but she never expected her daughter to make this move, whether intentionally or unintentionally, it has already shown that she and Zhao Xiaoting will not get along well in the future.

Li Zhihe went upstairs to the study with a cane, Zhang Bihua also dragged Li Zezhen and left the living room, the second brother and Xu Qingqing took Xiaoxian to their own home, and the whole living room was left with sister-in-law Chen Meihua and Li Xuannong.

"When Xiaoting wakes up, you go and apologize to me!" Chen Meihua said.

"Got it! I'll apologize as soon as she wakes up. Mom, don't frown. Li Xuannong rubbed into her mother's arms like a coquettish, whether this time it was intentional or not, only she knows.
