For Chu Xi's question, Li Mo did not answer, but began to prepare dinner by herself, for Chu Xi's appearance, she didn't know whether she should accept it or what she should do, her heart was a mess.

Although Chu Xi wanted to help make dinner, he had never entered the kitchen at all, so he could only wait on the sidelines, and he originally wanted to press Li Zhenshan's legs, but he was ruthlessly rejected by his father-in-law.

He knew he needed time to make up for their family.

Chu Xi Mosuo looked around at this small square meter house with his chin down, if he was living in, he was afraid that he would only be able to sleep on the sofa.

Looks like we're going to have to buy a bigger house in a hurry.

Just as Chu Xi wanted to call Qi Cong, the click of the key to open the door sounded.

It was Li Mo's mother Liu Xiaofeng who came in.

Liu Xiaofeng was obviously stunned when he saw Chu Xi sitting on the sofa, he hadn't had guests in his house for a long, long time, and he was still a young man.

Is it for Xiaomo?

Liu Xiaofeng greeted Chu Xi enthusiastically and walked directly to the kitchen, originally Chu Xi thought that Liu Xiaofeng would be resentful of herself, but unexpectedly, she didn't speak ill of herself, on the contrary, she was more enthusiastic than when they first met.

After chatting a few words, Liu Xiaofeng asked Chu Xi to be casual, as if it was his own home, and then walked into the bedroom.

As soon as he entered the door, Liu Xiaofeng said happily to Li Zhenshan: "Zhenshan, Chu Xi, this young man is good, I heard Xiaomo say that if it weren't for him today, I don't know what would have happened." ”

Li Zhenshan was still the same as he was at the beginning, staring straight at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Are you listening to me?"

"Listen."

"Then you should say something."

Li Zhenshan took his eyes back from the ceiling and looked at Liu Xiaofeng, and Liu Xiaofeng noticed that Li Zhenshan's eyes were already a little foggy.

"Xiaofeng, I've suffered you all these years."

Liu Xiaofeng smiled lightly, shook his head and began to massage Li Zhenshan's legs, and said while pressing: "What is not bitter, whose life is not like this." ”

After pinching his leg for a while, Liu Xiaofeng seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, take the time to let Xiaomo and Chu Xi do things." ”

Li Zhenshan was a little annoyed when he heard this.

"What to do, if it weren't for him, would our family have fallen to this point?"

Liu Xiaofeng snorted, and said with some complaints: "You said why is your temper so explosive, and you are going to be angry at me before you say a word." ”

After being stunned for a while, he continued: "Since you know the current situation of our family, do you want to watch Xiaomo be lonely for the rest of her life?" Or do you want Xiaomo to beg the eldest young master of the Sun family? ”

Li Zhenshan turned over with great effort as if he was angry and began to turn his back to Liu Xiaofeng, Liu Xiaofeng laughed directly when he saw his move, how old he is and still like a child.

In fact, Li Zhenshan understands the reason, I am afraid that no one dares to ask Li Mo in Linhai, there are only a few families who can fight against the Sun family, and who will offend the Sun family for Li Mo.

While massaging, Liu Xiaofeng took out a crumpled piece of paper from his clothes pocket, unfolded it and handed it to Li Zhenshan.

"Zhenshan, I'm running out of time."

And Li Zhenshan was stunned after reading the piece of paper.

Advanced stomach cancer.

With her back to Liu Xiaofeng, Li Zhenshan's shoulders began to shrug, she had never said anything about it.

"At first, I thought it was just a stomach ache, but once I couldn't stand the pain and went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said that the cancer had spread, and I didn't dare to tell you."

"I just want to see Xiaomo have a good home before I go."

For a moment, both of them fell silent, and neither knew what to say.

"Dad, Mom, it's time to eat."

Outside the door, Li Mo gently knocked on the door and asked the two to go out to eat.

Liu Xiaofeng helped Li Zhenshan to the wheelchair, and after cleaning up his emotions, he pushed Li Zhenshan out of the room.

At the dinner table, Li Mo said that he was going to Li's house tomorrow, and asked Liu Xiaofeng to take care of Li Zhenshan at home tomorrow, which is the habit of this family every month.

……

The next day, Li Mo took Chu Xi to buy some things and came directly to Li's house.

The one who opened the door was Xiao Yao that Li Mo said yesterday.

Xiao Yao said in surprise when he saw someone coming: "Mom, you came to see Xiao Yao." ”

Li Mo touched Xiao Yao's head dotingly, pulled her inside, and didn't care about Chu Xi who was stunned in place.

That little girl's name is Li Mo's mother, she actually called her mother, so isn't she ......

Chu Xi hurriedly took two steps to catch up with Li Mo, squatted down and took the little girl's hand and said, "Little girl, what's your name?" ”

The little girl replied in a crisp voice, "Uncle, my name is Chu Yao." ”

Chu Yao, her surname is Chu!

Looking at her big eyes, the more Chu Xi looked at it, the more he liked it, it really looked like him.

"Do you know who I am?"

Chu Yao shook her little head to show that she didn't know, and besides, she didn't care about it, the delicious food in her hand had already attracted all her attention.

Chu Yao's behavior Chu Xi saw it all in his eyes, which made his face have a hint of gloom.

"Xiao Yao, can't you usually eat something like this here?"

When they came this time, they didn't buy anything particularly good, they were all relatively ordinary things.

"Yes, I can only eat for a few days when my mother comes to see me."

"And what do you usually eat?"

"Steamed bread slices, and then sometimes there will be vegetable soup to drink."

Chu Yao's answer made Chu Xi clench his fists, his daughter actually suffered such treatment, children need nutrition now, how can they eat those things.

He didn't believe that Li Mo didn't know about this kind of thing.

And Li Mo seemed to understand Chu Xi's incomprehension, and said coldly: "She doesn't have to follow me to be bullied by outsiders here." ”

"Also, I can't afford her tuition."

The simple two sentences expressed her helplessness and sadness, but they also made Chu Xi blame herself even more.

But even so, no matter how Chu Yao says it, he is the flesh and blood of their Li family, even if he is a servant, I am afraid that he will not be treated like this.

Indeed, in the Li family, Chu Yao couldn't even compare to their servants.

"Does Xiao Yao know where his father is?"

Hearing the words of Dad, Chu Yao stopped eating, and his big eyes were full of loss.

Shaking his little head, Chu Yao said in a low voice: "I don't know, my mother always told me that Xiao Yao's father was out of reach, so she named me Chu Yao." ”

Because it was out of reach, it was named Chu Yao.

This sentence smashed into Chu Xi's heart like a giant hammer.

Maybe she is a nightmare for Li Mo, if she relaxes her mentality, then she is a passerby, but because of the child, she chooses to bear these alone.

"Is it okay for that uncle to be your father?"

Hearing this, Chu Yao's originally lost eyes burst out with unprecedented brilliance.

A pair of big eyes stared straight at Chu Xi and said happily, "Really? Can you pick up Haruka from school? Other children have fathers who pick them up from school. ”

Her request made Chu Xi stunned in place.

"Yes...... OK. ”

The simple two words made Chu Xi feel so heavy, what her daughter wanted was so simple.

The conversation between the two was heard clearly by Li Mo, and she did not stop it, seeing that Chu Yao was the right of this man, even if she had resentment in her heart, she could not deprive him of this right.

After the two of them finished speaking, they picked up Chu Yao again and walked into the house.

At this time, the living room of the Li family was already full of people from the Li family, and they all wanted to see who the person who made it more and more difficult for the Li family eight years ago was.

"Grandpa."

Old lady Li, who was sitting in the center, nodded lightly, his eyes didn't look at Li Mo, since Chu Xi entered the room, his eyes have been falling on Chu Xi's body.

Chu Xi didn't have a trace of fear, maybe without these things, he might feel indebted to the Li family, but now, all the situation of the Li family seemed to him to be self-inflicted.

Especially his daughter's matter, he didn't have a good impression of this Li family.

"You bastard! Don't kneel yet! ”
