Mother Li stood in place and was stunned for a moment, and it took a few seconds to come back to her senses, stepped forward, and held April's hand affectionately.

"You're April, Li Yu has been mentioning you to me, and I finally met you today." Mother Li smiled, her eyes shining with wisdom.

Mother Li's hand was soft and warm, and April shook her palm, and her heart gradually settled down.

She smiled a little shyly, not knowing what to say.

"You sit here for a while, have a good chat with Lan Lan's girl, and I'll cook for you." Mother Li patted the back of her hand lightly and said kindly.

April was embarrassed and said in a loud voice: "Is there anything you need my help with?" ”

When Mother Li heard this, the smile in her eyes deepened, and she said, "You came here for the first time today, how can I let you cook." Besides, I've just prepared it in the kitchen, and I'm almost ready to cook. ”

April wanted to say something more, Li Yu said: "April, you sit first, I'll go to the kitchen to help, my mother's sweet and sour crucian carp is delicious, you can taste it in a while." ”

After speaking, he pulled Li's mother's arm, and the mother and son walked in again.

Li Lanlan didn't know where to take a bag of potato chips, and she was eating happily at this time, she said while eating: "Sister-in-law, leave them alone, you can talk to me." ”

April retracted her gaze, thought for a moment, and sat back on the couch.

"Here, do you want to eat?" Li Lanlan handed the potato chips to her.

"No need, you can eat." April shook her head.

"Oh." Li Lanlan shrugged her shoulders, her fingers kept sticking into the bag of potato chips, and she looked like she was eating deliciously.

She looks to be in her early twenties, with short ear-length hair, eyebrows and eyes that are somewhat similar to Li Yu, and she looks very smart and cute.

However, she seems to have some ADHD, and after only sitting for a while, she has already changed several sitting positions and twisted her body.

"Sister-in-law, do you want to watch TV?"

April thought for a moment and agreed, "Okay. She can't speak, she's afraid of being cold, turn on the TV and watch the show, and the atmosphere won't be awkward.

Li Lanlan picked up the remote control and turned on the widescreen LCD TV in the middle of the living room. While adjusting the stage, she asked April: "Sister-in-law, what show do you like to watch?" Idol dramas, Korean dramas, or costume dramas. ”

"I can do it, pick what you like."

"Well, let's watch a hot drama that has been broadcast every week recently." As she spoke, she easily switched to a channel.

There is a costume light comedy on TV, and the hero and heroine are a pair of happy enemies. April stared intently at the TV series and watched it extremely seriously. Seeing this, Li Lanlan asked excitedly: "Are you also chasing this drama?" ”

April honestly shook his head, "No. ”

"Oh, I saw that you watched it so seriously, I thought you were watching a drama too." Li Lanlan threw the finished potato chips packaging bag into the trash, then took out another bag, and continued: "This TV series has been very popular recently, it's very good, you can watch it when you go back, but only four episodes are updated in a week, and some are waiting." ”

As she spoke, she sighed exaggeratedly, tore open the package, and ate with relish.

Both of them watched the TV series seriously, during which Li Yu brought a pot of cut fruit from the kitchen.

Looking at his leaving, Li Lanlan frowned and said to April: "When did my brother become so attentive, he wouldn't have cut fruit for me before." ”

Facing her narrow gaze, April lowered her eyes and smiled faintly.

Li Lanlan became more and more energetic, and said endlessly: "Don't look at my brother now, he was mischievous when he was a child, and he bullied me a lot, he ......" She poured beans and spit out Li Yu's old things, and even said how old she was to wet the bed. As she spoke, she puffed out her face and looked like a little squirrel.

A faint smile flashed in April's eyes, and she listened carefully to Li Lanlan telling interesting stories about Li Yu's childhood.

"My brother has a very strong sense of justice since he was a child, and my dad said that he should go to the police academy, but I didn't expect my brother to say nothing, and when he filled in the volunteers, he really filled in the police academy in Z City." Li Lanlan said, paused, took a sip of drink to moisten her throat, and said: "He was hiding from us to fill in the volunteers, what my father originally said was just a joke, and after he found out, he beat him hard with a whip." ”

"Why?" April wondered.

Li Lanlan glanced at her, "You are stupid, he wants to be a policeman, or a criminal policeman, that parent is willing to take risks with his child." ”

April suddenly, but when I think about it, how did Li Yu become an architectural designer later?

Li Lanlan continued: "You don't know, the year my brother became a policeman, we were worried all day long, for fear that something would happen to him. ”

As soon as she heard this, April was a little surprised, Li Yu had never mentioned these things to her.

Li Lanlan didn't notice the change in her face, and said to herself: "My brother doesn't look tempered, in fact, he is stubborn, if it wasn't for the accident six years ago, he would probably still be a policeman." ”

"What accident?"

"It's not his girlfriend who was-" Li Lanlan blurted out, and when she noticed that something was wrong, she quickly shut up, stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, and looked at her with wide eyes.

"What's wrong?" April chuckled in her heart.

"I didn't ...... It's nothing? Li Lanlan shook her hand with an abnormal expression, and changed the topic: "Eat the fruit, this is what my mother just bought today, it's fresh." As she spoke, she picked up a toothpick, inserted a piece of cantaloupe and handed it over.

April reached out and took a small bite, it was very sweet.

But I faintly felt something strange in my heart.

Li Lanlan's second half of the sentence just now, what do you want to say, what kind of girlfriend?

April quietly turned her head sideways and glanced at Li Lanlan, who was sitting upright, staring at the TV with unblinking eyes, and even forgot to eat the potato chips in his hand. April looked at Yiqiē in his eyes, did not speak, and put his eyes back on the TV.

There are some things that you still don't need to know too much.

After watching TV for a while, April said hello to Li Lanlan, and said that she would go to the kitchen to see if she needed help, Li Lanlan nodded, and the expression on her face relaxed.

When they arrived in the kitchen, Mother Li and Li Yu were washing vegetables, and with the sound of rushing water, Mother Li's voice came out vaguely.

"Xiaoyu, have you really thought it through?"

"Well, April is fine, I want to go down with her." Li Yu replied in a low voice.

"But, do you know what April looks like—" Mother Li saw April's figure in the afterglow, suddenly silenced, and then put on a kind smile again, and said, "April, why did you come in?" ”

When Li Yu heard this, he also turned around, his expression was as usual, and he said with a hint of temptation in his eyes: "April, how long have you been standing there, why don't you make a sound." ”

"I just came in and wanted to see what I could do?" April sensed that the atmosphere was a little delicate, and couldn't help but bow her head.

Mother Li glanced at her son, with a smile on her face, and said while pushing Li Yu towards April: "We don't have a rule for letting guests go down to the kitchen, Xiaoyu, you accompany April first, I'm busy here alone." ”

Li Yu walked over obediently and took April's hand freely, "Let's go out first, I'll take you to see my room." ”

"Okay." April nodded, turned around, and said to Mother Li, who was looking at them with a smile, "Auntie, then let's go out first." ”

"Go, go, go." Mother Li waved her hand and smiled.

Walking out of the kitchen, Li Yu pulled her to the second floor, introducing various rooms along the way, and stopped at the door of one of the rooms.

"This is my bedroom." He let go of her hand and pushed the door in.

April looked up and found that Li Yu's room was empty, and there were no furnishings around, except for a bed and a wardrobe, there was no other superfluous things at all. The decoration of the room is simple and warm, but the space is empty, but it feels a little weird.

Li Yu explained: "I don't have anything in my room because I don't live much at home. ”

April snorted and didn't say anything more.

During the meal, Li's mother was very hospitable, and gave April a lot of dishes, and April was a little embarrassed and said thank you. Li Lanlan said proudly on the side: "Thank you, we will be a family in the future, and my mother will be your mother." ”

Mother Li listened to it and smiled, and Father Li's face on the side was also kind.

April was eating silently, and Li Yu beside her quietly held her other hand under the table. She was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at him, Li Yu smiled and winked at her, she also pursed her lips, revealing a faint smile.

A meal is a great pleasure.

After the meal, Li Yu accompanied Li's father to water the flowers and plants, and in April, he accompanied Li's mother and said some considerate words. Mother Li has a kind temperament, holding a thick photo album and pointing to the photos of Li Yu when he was a child.

Li Yu was round when he was a child, far from his current thin appearance, only big eyes and moderately thick lips, and a rare shadow of the present.

"This is what Xiaoyu looked like when he was three years old, when he was very naughty, he liked to crawl around, and he turned the sheets crumpled all day long, and we watched him from the sidelines, for fear that he would accidentally fall off the bed."

Recalling the past, Li's mother's eyes unconsciously showed a look of nostalgia and satisfaction, which was a kind of maternal tenderness, holy spirit and brilliance. Listening to Mother Li's eloquent voice in a peaceful and pleasant voice, April was infected, and her eyes were slowly filled with envy.

Mother Li said slowly, from Li Yu was three years old to eighteen years old, April listened carefully, and remembered all kinds of little things about Li Yu in her heart.

At the end of the talk, Mother Li stopped flipping through the photo album, raised her head, looked at April solemnly, and said: "Xiaoyu's child is a person of great affection, as long as it is the person he identifies, no matter who persuades him." He won't listen. I think you are a sincere child, and if you have a good time with Li Yu in the future, he will be good to you. ”

When she said this, she seemed to agree to April's relationship with Li Yu.

April couldn't help but blush, and nodded heavily: "Auntie, don't worry, I will take good care of Li Yu." ”

When Mother Li heard this, she smiled slowly, and fine lines spread out from the corners of her eyes.
