"Really?" Lu Xiaomei changed her previous aggrieved eyes, and sent a confirmation with a face full of surprise.

has lived with Li Xie for a long time, and Lu Xiaomei has now become quite clever and lively. Maybe this may not be very beautiful in the eyes of other people, but in Li Xie's view, innocent and romantic, lively and cute are the nature of children.

It is not easy to be born, and what people miss most in this life is often those carefree green years. So in Li Xie's view, as long as it has nothing to do with morality, nothing is more important than happiness in childhood.

"Of course it's true."

"But my mother shouldn't be willing." After Lu Xiaomei was sure again and again, she thought about it, but she thought of her mother. I have to say that since I lived in the backyard of this Xicheng Mansion.

Linghua's discipline of Lu Xiaomei is becoming more and more strict, because she was born in an ordinary family, Linghua herself is still not very literate, so she didn't teach Lu Xiaomei how to read and write, and taught her what books such as female rings to read.

But in other aspects, for example, the requirements for embroidery by female workers are differently strict. First, because this is a craft after all, and second, Lu Xiaomei and others are really not small in the eyes of today's people, and they can be married to others in two or three years.

So for Linghua's strict requirements for Lu Xiaomei, Li Xie didn't say anything, and it was hard to say anything.

"It's okay! Hurry up and eat, and we'll set off after eating, so that your mother won't know. Li Xie took a piece of meat and put it in Lu Xiaomei's bowl, saying this rather playful thing.

"Good!" Lu Xiaomei's face turned into a flower, and she hurriedly lowered her head to eat.

"Senior brother, what are you going to do at my house?" Cao Ying saw that the two father and daughter had finished talking, and then asked.

"Look at Xiao Xiang, after rescuing him, I haven't seen him yet. If it weren't for the fact that it was important yesterday, I would have gone to your house to have a look. ”

"Go today? But at this time, I am afraid that ...... "it will take an hour to return from here to his house, and it is now nearing the end of the morning, that is to say, except for the two hours that go back and forth." I have to go out, and the time to buy things after I come back is really tight.

Cao Ying is not worried that Li Xie will spend the night at her house in time. If that's the case, it's okay, I'm afraid, Li Xie forgot the time in his own home, and only after he came back did he find that the city gate was closed, which was embarrassing.

"It's a bit rushed, but it should be in time." Li Xie has made up his mind, and he is going to go on a trip today. It's not that I have to go, but I think I should make this trip.

Li Xie has ill intentions towards Cao Ying, of course, he hopes that he will leave a good impression in front of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, and now is a good time to leave a good impression. I didn't go to see it yesterday, and it can be said that the matter is urgent, but I have time today, but I have to go this way.

As for thinking about being afraid that Lu Xiaomei will bring it, it is nothing more than thinking that the two are close in age and can play together.

The three of them didn't stop much after eating, and went out directly. Because considering that Lu Xiaomei is still young, and she is visiting after all, she should bring some gifts, if so, it will be very inconvenient to ride a horse. So Li Xie did not choose to ride a horse, but pulled out a horse from the mansion and rode the car forward.

went out of the city gate and came to Cao Ying's house, Cao's father and Cao's mother knew that this time for their son, Li Xie made a great effort. So it was quite enthusiastic about Li Xie's visit, although Li Xie was a little older psychologically, but after all, it was the first time to officially visit the father-in-law and mother-in-law who had been identified in his heart.

So it is inevitable that there will be some cowardice psychologically, although the second elder is very enthusiastic, Li Xie still can't talk to the second elder.

Cao Ying and Li Xie are relatively familiar with each other now, and of course they saw Li Xie's unnaturalness, so they just sat with the second elder for a while and then found an excuse to take Li Xie to the study.

What Li Xie and Cao Ying didn't know was that after the two left, Cao's father looked at the back of the two leaving side by side and sighed: "It's a pity." ”

Cao's mother glanced at her husband strangely: "What is a pity?" ”

"Look how right they look. It's a pity, it's not the right age. Father Cao sighed again. This era is not new, what a female junior, if you hold gold bricks. And Li Xie and Cao Yingren are not so three years apart, but a full five years apart. Although Li Xie looks more mature, he has just come of age this year.

So in the eyes of today's people, the age difference between the two is still quite large, of course, it is not suitable.

"What nonsense! You are still a father, are you so corrupt your daughter's innocence? Let me tell you, I made an appointment with the Sun family today, and you don't dare to say it again. ”

Cao's mother rolled her eyes at Cao's father, her daughter is already in her 20s, and she can marry at the age of 13, and 18 years old is considered the era of older leftover women. Cao Ying is in her 20s and has not yet married, and in the eyes of Cao's mother, she is an old girl.

So in this regard, he was also heartbroken, and came to this Luotian Mansion, where Cao's mother ran out every day to get acquainted with those people with similar family backgrounds. In order to sell his daughter. Today, I finally got a grandson's family, and it is strange that Cao's father said such things at this time without being complained by Cao's mother.

"Tell me what's wrong, I can't let people say it, this does seem to be right......"

Li Xie and Cao Ying both came to the study, as for Lu Xiaomei, she had already been taken out by Cao Zhixiang to play, and now she doesn't know where to go crazy! Li Xie was relieved to see that the two could play together, so he let it go.

Cao Ying instructed his subordinates to bring some refreshments and put some tea, and then talked with Li Xie in the study, chatting and chatting, and unconsciously talked about the collection of books.

"When I first moved, because of my father, I didn't bring much else, but this lone ancient book brought out a lot."

"Can you lend me a look?" Li Xie is not obsessed with reading when he reads, and the reason why he talks about this aspect is just because Peacock Faping wants to show his knowledge. But that's it, you still have to make a show.

"Why not!" The corners of Cao Ying's mouth twitched, and she happily agreed. Then he stood up and led Li Xie to the back room of the study. Cao Ying's study is different from the study of Li Xie's small family.

Li Xie's study, it is only a single room, although the space is a little wider, but there are two or three bookshelves, and a small round table almost fills the space of a study.

This is not the case with Cao Ying's study, which is naturally a study, but it is more like three coherent single rooms. The front is like a small hall, which is used to entertain guests to drink tea and eat, and then go straight inside, and it is a single room, and the space may be a little smaller because the walls are full of bookshelves.

This room is used for reading and writing, and there are two tables on it. Then there was a larger room at the back, which was lined with bookshelves full of books.

At this time, Cao Ying brought Li Xie here, and generally speaking, the study is located in the backyard of the mansion. This location is relatively private, and if it weren't for someone who was really close to him, he wouldn't have brought it here.

And the place where the books are stored in this study is a more private place in the study. Such a private and private place, even if it is generally a good friendship, will not be brought here. If you talk about what kind of face is qualified to be brought into the car, then only your own family members, or real confidants and other characters are left.

At this time, Cao Ying brought Li Xie into it without hesitation. Although Li Xie behaved calmly, he was very happy in his heart.

"Starting from this row and going back three rows, there are all ancient books and ancient books. Junior brother, you can take a look, and you can take a look at any kind of books that you are more interested in. ”
