Chapter 235: Duan Yu's sense of déjà vu
Wu Ansu seemed to be really drunk this time, and he called her a few times but there was no response.
Li Mengnan suddenly regretted a little, he knew that this would be the case, he shouldn't have let that group of little policewomen leave just now, even if he left one, at least he could help send Wu Ansu home.
Just when Li Mengnan flipped out Wu Ansu's mobile phone, about to see if he could call one back, Wu Ansu's mobile phone suddenly rang in his hand.
As soon as Li Mengnan looked at the electric marker, sweat fell from his head.
There is only one word on the marker.
Mother.
Although it was just a kiss, Li Mengnan couldn't help but feel inexplicable when he saw this call, as if he had slept with someone else's daughter, but it was obviously unrealistic to ask Wu Ansu to get up and answer the phone, so he had to press the connect button.
"Hey, Xiaosu, where are you? What time is it, why haven't you gone home yet? ”
As soon as the phone was connected, a stern voice from a middle-aged woman came from inside.
"Uh...... Auntie, I'm Wu Ansu...... Friend, we had dinner together just now, she drank a little too much, and now it's inconvenient to answer the phone......"
"Friends?" The woman on the other side of the phone was obviously stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly changed her face to an extremely kind tone, "Oh, I'm really sorry just now, I thought you were Xiaosu...... What's your last name? What do you call it? ”
Wait, this aunt, according to normal logic, you should be asking about your daughter's situation, right? People can't answer the phone, aren't you worried? Is it really a daughter? It won't be sent with a phone bill, right......
But after all, it was Wu Ansu's mother, and Li Mengnan was not easy to complain, so he had to answer along the way: "My surname is Li, my name is Li Mengnan, Auntie, you can just call me Xiaonan." ”
"Li Mengnan? Oh! Wu Ansu's mother pulled a long tone with twists and turns, "It turns out that you are that Li Mengnan." ”
Li Mengnan was a little discouraged by Wu Mu's strange tone - what does this mean, Wu Ansu mentioned himself at home? What the hell is this woman saying about herself?
"Oh, Auntie, so you've heard of me, so I'm not going to introduce myself anymore." Li Mengnan didn't want to continue on this topic, so he hurriedly got to the point and said: "That's the case, Auntie, Wu Ansu has drunk too much, and she can't wake up no matter how she screams now, do you think it's inconvenient for you to come and pick her up?" ”
Wu Mu was obviously a little surprised: "Can't wake up?" This kid had never drunk so much before......"
After a slight pause, Mother Wu pleaded in a kind tone: "Xiao Nan, you see that Xiao Su's father went early, and Auntie's health is not very good, so it is not very convenient to go up and down the stairs alone......
When Wu's mother talked about this, Li Mengnan didn't understand what it meant, so she hurriedly said: "Okay, auntie, you tell me your home address, and I'll send Wu Ansu back now." ”
"Then I'm sorry for you, you remember, the address of our house is ......"
After writing down the address mentioned by Wu's mother, Li Mengnan picked up Wu Ansu, who was so drunk that he couldn't wake up, and called a taxi at the gate of Hot Pot City.
About half an hour later, the taxi arrived at its destination, and Li Mengnan asked the security guard at the entrance of the community before groping all the way to find the residence of Wu Ansu's family.
Carrying Wu Ansu, who was dead and heavy, climbed all the way to the sixth floor, and adjusted his rapid breathing slightly, Li Mengnan pressed the doorbell on the security door.
There was a faint sound of footsteps in the room, and after a few seconds, the door was opened from the inside, and a tall and plump woman poked her head out, took Wu Ansu from Li Mengnan's back, and let him into the room.
At this moment, Wu Ansu finally regained a little consciousness, and was supported by the woman and sent back to the room, Li Mengnan sat on the sofa in the living room, taking the opportunity to carefully observe the surroundings.
From the perspective of room layout, Wu Ansu's home is a standard two-bedroom and two-living room, and the area is not large, about ten square meters.
The style of the furniture is a little old, and some of them may be more than ten years old, but the maintenance is quite good, which shows the owner's love for these furniture displays.
Just as Li Mengnan was looking around, the woman from before walked out of Wu Ansu's room, poured a cup of hot water and put it in front of Li Mengnan, and then naturally sat opposite Li Mengnan.
While the woman was looking at Li Mengnan, Li Mengnan was also observing the woman.
There is no doubt that this woman and Wu Ansu must have a certain kinship, because the two are too similar in appearance, and their figures are also the same tall and hot, the only difference is that this woman looks slightly more mature than Wu Ansu, and her face is a little less heroic, but a little more feminine.
Li Mengnan was a little hairy by the woman's strange eyes, so he had to take the initiative to speak: "Uh...... What about Auntie? ”
"Auntie? What aunt? The woman was stunned for a moment, then reacted, covered her mouth and smiled: "You mean Xiaosu's mother?" I am! ”
"Huh? Aren't you Wu Ansu's sister? ”
Li Mengnan was really taken aback.
This woman is Wu Ansu's mother? How is this possible? Isn't it too young and beautiful? From the moment he entered the door, he always thought that this woman was Wu Ansu's sister......
The woman seemed to be used to being mistaken for people, and she didn't like the ordinary woman who heard people praise her when she was young, she just covered the corners of her mouth and smiled softly, waved her hand and said, "I gave birth to a child of Xiaosu, where did she come from?" ”
Li Mengnan was shocked again, biological? It turns out that she is not a stepmother......
"Auntie, I take the liberty of asking you...... When was you born in Wu Ansu? ”
Li Mengnan was very curious about the real age of the woman in front of him at the moment, because no matter how he looked at it, the other party looked like a beautiful young woman in her early thirties, obviously without makeup, but she couldn't even see a crow's feet at the corner of her eyes.
"I was born when I was twenty years old, and I am forty-six this year." The woman saw that Li Mengnan was still a little incredulous, and continued to explain: "You should also notice Xiao Su's skin color, our family's genes are like this, aging is relatively slow, but the price is that the skin tone is darker than normal. ”
Li Mengnan took a closer look through the light, and sure enough, the complexion of the woman in front of him was the same as Wu Ansu's, and it was the same wheat color as if she had sunbathed her whole body, but it may be because she was not exposed to the sun outside for a long time like Wu Ansu, and the color was slightly lighter than Wu Ansu.
"I see."
Li Mengnan just sighed slightly, and didn't feel too surprised, after all, it was not the first time he had seen someone like this with special genes for family inheritance.
Far from it, Qingche is one of the examples, this little Lori actually inherited a special genetic inheritance from her mother that many women envy and hate - the parts where she stores fat are not the common belly and thighs of women, but the breasts and buttocks.
Li Mengnan was also surprised to find this after seeing the photo album of this little Lori from childhood to adulthood.
The woman picked up the fruit knife on the coffee table, peeled an apple and handed it to Li Mengnan, and said with a slight smile: "Seriously, I don't like people calling me auntie, it feels like it's always reminding me - you're already an old woman." ”
"Ah...... You laughed, you look like Wu Ansu's sister, not old at all. ”
Li Mengnan thought that a stubborn and serious character like Wu Ansu would have an old-fashioned and strict mother, but he didn't expect that the real person was completely different from what he imagined, he didn't have the majesty of his elders at all, but like a gentle and kind big sister.
"yes, I think so too...... So, you don't have to call me aunt in the future, my name is Wu Xia, you can call me Sister Xia. ”
"Huh? Isn't that right? Li Mengnan couldn't help but look sideways, this kind of name seems to be inferior.
"It doesn't matter, in fact, Xiao Su usually calls me that...... Well, it's a tradition in our family. ”
The woman smiled and brushed the long hair in her ear, and the style of that moment was completely that of a virtuous and virtuous young woman, and she couldn't see that the deity was actually a character of the same age as those bucket aunts who danced square dances.
"Okay then...... Sister Xia. ”
Li Mengnan actually felt a little more comfortable to change his words, and called an aunt to such a beautiful young woman who looked to be in her thirties at most, even if she knew the actual age of the other party, she still felt a little weird in her heart.
"Sister Xia, is Wu Ansu your surname?" When the other party revealed his name just now, Li Mengnan noticed this very strange point.
"Oh, no, Xiao Su takes his father's surname, and my surname was changed after marrying Xiao Su's father...... Well, it's also a tradition in our family. ”
"Your family seems to be very old......"
Generally speaking, only large clans that have been passed down for many years will have various traditions that may seem strange to modern people, but in the past, these traditions were recognized by the people of the time.
"Oh? Don't you know any of this? ”
Wu Xia was a little surprised, clans and things always felt very distant to modern people, and she rarely talked about these things with others.
"I'll tell you the truth, I also came from such a family, your rules are nothing, many of our family's rules are unreasonable......" Li Mengnan casually threw the gnawed apple core into the trash, wiped his mouth and smiled.
"It can't be said that the rules set by the family are mostly considered from the maintenance of the family itself, and there will naturally be conflicts with the national law, whether it is right or wrong, it depends on which angle you look at."
Although Wu Xia's tone was still gentle, her attitude was quite serious, and it seemed that she should belong to the kind of person who had the concept of clan supremacy.
"You're right, but it doesn't matter to me...... In a sense, I am not only the patriarch but also the whole clan, and the rules are all set by me, and I am also the only one who implements them, of course, there are no taboos. ”
Li Mengnan heard the old man say that he still has a long-lost sibling, but it is said that the other party was injured in the lower body when he was young and completely lost his fertility, and it is estimated that even if he is alive at this time, it is impossible to have an heir, so it is not an exaggeration to say this.
After listening to Li Mengnan's words, the expression on Wu Xia's face suddenly became stern, and she said seriously: "Xiao Nan, as an elder, I am going to say something about you...... Whether from the perspective of biology or social ethics, inheritance is an extremely important thing in life.
Especially for a family like you, which has been passed down alone, it is the one who needs you to spread out and continue the family tradition the most.
Since you are the patriarch, you must understand the burden on your shoulders, and you must not treat it as child's play, the rules of the ancestors or something, as long as it does not conflict with the principles of life, do not change it if you can, after all, this is the experience left to us by our ancestors.
Look at the current society, what kind of people and morals have collapsed? If everyone could be in awe of our ancestors and keep the precious spiritual wealth left to us by our ancestors, our dignified and ceremonial state would not have fallen to the point it is today. ”
Looking at the righteous and strict beautiful young woman in front of him, Li Mengnan suddenly had a strong sense of déjà vu, saying that the old man often told him like this back then, and asked him to spread the branches and leaves for the Li family with a handful of snot and tears.
"Uh...... Sister Xia, it's not early, you go to bed early, I'll go first. ”
Although chatting with each other is very relaxed, the topic seems to be a little biased, and it always feels a little weird to talk about inheritance with a tall and plump gentle young woman in the middle of the night...... Even if it wasn't meant that way.
"Hey, don't worry." Wu Xia raised her hand to stop Li Mengnan's farewell, and said with a smile: "Just a casual chat just now, I haven't asked what I should have asked yet......"
"Uh...... What do you ask? Li Mengnan suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Is your father's name Li Hongming?"
"Huh?"
Wait, this plot development is too jumpy, right? According to normal logic, shouldn't the next step be to enter the "mother-in-law picking son-in-law" link? Most of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas on the screen are played like this......
Although I don't understand which one the beautiful young woman in front of me is singing, since her life experience has been seen through by others at a glance, Li Mengnan simply admits it, anyway, this is a fact, and there is nothing unseemly.
"Yes, my biological father is indeed Li Hongming...... But I always thought that Sister Xia would ask another question. ”
"Hehe, do you think I'm going to ask if you're dating Xiao Su?" Wu Xia's gentle smile revealed a trace of undetectable cunning, wrapped her fingers around the ends of her hair, kicked her two iconic long legs like a girl, and said, "I've lived most of my life, how can I not see if you have affection for Xiao Su?" Speaking of Xiao Su, this kid is pitiful enough, and he finally met someone he liked, and he was actually issued a good person card......"
Li Mengnan was convinced, and they all said that people are old and fine, and it was true, so he entered the door for a while, and he didn't say anything, the other party actually guessed the whole thing with only intuition and a few details.
"Since you can see it, then I can explain it...... I hope you can understand that feelings can't be forced, and Wu Ansu and I still feel more friends. ”
"It's so ruthless, almost the same as your father." Wu Xia leaned on the armrest of the sofa with her head in her hands, and sighed faintly.
Belch...... How does this resentful tone and demeanor feel as if there was a story that once happened......
That Wu Xia didn't wait for Li Mengnan to take the initiative to ask, so she said to herself as if she was a memory: "Anyway, when I was a girl, I fell madly in love with your father...... It's a pity that Luohua is deliberately ruthless, your father only treats me as a sister, and his old-fashioned personality can't accept some of our family's unique traditions, so we didn't get together in the end.
Later, I married Xiao Su's father, I might as well tell you, I don't really like him, the reason why I chose him is because of the family arrangement, and on the other hand, because he has the shadow of your father Li Hongming. ”
Li Mengnan was really surprised, he couldn't imagine that his biological father still had such a romantic affair when he was young, but it seems that the charm is still the same, otherwise how can he still find Bai Fumei like Ding Linglong after divorcing his mother and eating soft rice openly?
"Uh...... This section seems to have been heard somewhere, so familiar. ”
"You're talking about "Dragon Babu", right? Yes, your father Li Hongming was indeed very similar to Duan Zhengchun in the book when he was young, although he was not very handsome, he had a unique temperament that was quite fascinating...... However, although you look exactly the same as your father when you are young, you don't seem to have inherited that temperament, and you look like a passerby. ”
"Please don't tell the truth, it's hard to dismantle it...... Li Mengnan covered his heart and shot in pain.
(Note: People are difficult to dismantle, which means that life is already so difficult, and some things should not be dismantled.) )
"Although you are not as handsome as your father, you little fellow is much more interesting than your father." Wu Xia covered her mouth and snickered, got up after laughing, reached out and rubbed Li Mengnan's hair, and said with a kind expression: "It's good that you little guy didn't inherit your father's temperament with you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to face you so calmly as I am now." ”
"Sister Xia, I'm cowardly, don't scare me."
Li Mengnan wiped a cold sweat, although this Wu Xia is really amorous, but after all, she is Wu Ansu's mother, and she is also his father's old lover, he doesn't want to make any ethical tragedy.
"Okay, I'm going to tease you, I'm scared of you...... I'm a very dedicated person, and I've always liked your father, but seeing you makes me feel very kind, and in my imagination, the children I had with your father were like you. ”
Wu Xia suddenly grimaced at Li Mengnan, obviously she was already old, but she was still naughty like a girl, it seemed that her peculiar family genes had slowed down not only the aging of her appearance, but also her mental age.
Li Mengnan suddenly felt that his father was really blind, he didn't want such a beautiful young woman, he wanted to marry Ding Linglong, who seemed to wear a mask all day long, if he changed this Wu Xia as his stepmother, it was estimated that the family would be very interesting.
