023 Family reunion

When Li Yaotang walked into his home in the alley of Hutong, it was already twilight, and the sunset was crimson.

Li Jili was standing on the corridor of the courtyard and moving his muscles, and when he saw his daughter coming in from outside, he was stunned for a moment - at that moment, he seemed to see Li Yaotang's mother when he was young...... The ex-wife of the girlhood - but look at it again, it's not. It's Li Yaotang. His daughter Li Yaotang. He was a little amused: Is this old? He never felt like he was getting old.

"Tang Tang?"

"Daddy." Li Yaotang smiled.

When Li Jili saw his daughter, he was full of joy, laughed, and asked, "Why did you come?" I thought you weren't coming! ”

No, she probably shouldn't have come.

"Traffic jams."

Li Jili opened the door for his daughter, "Hurry up and get in!" It's really hot outside today, are you wearing a little thick, but don't cover it, it's uncomfortable then. Li Jili looked at Li Yaotang, who was wearing layer after layer, and frowned, "It's all hot and panicked." You kid, learn more to be a hipster? ”

Li Yaotang laughed and asked, "What about Auntie?" ”

"Where's the kitchen...... It's not like you're coming, you're busy when you wake up from a nap at noon. Peiyi! Peiyi! Tang Tang is back! Come out and have a look! Li Jili suddenly shouted, and Li Yaotang hurriedly stopped him.

I already heard Shen Peiyi answer over there.

"I'll get over it." Li Yaotang put down the handbag and took off the sunscreen outside.

Li Jili smiled and nodded.

Li Yaotang took off his coat, hung it on the hanger, and came to the kitchen.

Shen Peiyi was busy working in the kitchen, and when she heard Li Yaotang calling her, she hurriedly put down the knife in her hand, "Tangtang is here?!" She picked up a towel and wiped her hands.

"Auntie, I'm here." Li Yaotang came into the kitchen.

Because it is an old-fashioned house, the kitchen at home is not very large, but it can be cleaned up very neatly. Li Yaotang looked at them one by one, and it was really dazzling. Most of them are what she likes to eat, or maybe my aunt thinks she likes to eat. Li Yaotang was about to go to the pool to wash his hands.

"Okay, good, I'll eat it in a while." Shen Peiyi was adjusting the fire, and when he saw Li Yaotang about to wash his hands, he said quickly: "Don't do it, it's summer, the kitchen is smoky, it's very hot, go, go sit with your father for a while." Shen Peiyi said and pushed Li Yaotang out.

"I'll help you." Li Yaotang rubbed his hands.

"I can do it myself. It's good for a while, and I've already got eighty. Shen Peiyi smiled and waved his hand.

"Then I'll ...... over" Li Yaotang was still a little hesitant.

"Go ahead." Shen Peiyi smiled.

Li Yaotang no longer insisted, and she was quite frightened to stay with her aunt.

Shen Peiyi watched Ziduan leave, and then turned back to the kitchen.

Seeing Li Yaotang come back, Li Jili laughed, "Where can your aunt ask you for help?" Isn't it more and more helpful? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Come, sit down." Li Jili patted the seat next to him. Li Yaotang sat down. Li Jili poured a cup of tea for his daughter, "The Pu'er you bought from Uncle Feng, I taste it well." It's a hot day, and your stomach is often upset, drink some warm tea, don't always drink that green tea. ”

"Yes." Li Yaotang picked up the cup and felt that it was cold in his hand, which was the coolness of the cup. She looked at the tea soup in the cup, and the color was good; After taking another sip, the taste was also good, so he smiled, "Uncle Feng is really an expert." ”

"Hey, by the way, when it comes to Pu'er tea, he is a connoisseur; When it comes to cigars, the little iron is clear. Li Jili smiled. The old and the young around him, serving his hobbies properly, he is naturally very comfortable and comfortable. He looked at his daughter, his mind suddenly moved, and he asked, "Where did Xiao Tie go?" ”

"Hmm...... Hong Kong. Actually, she didn't ask him where he was on a business trip, but he came back in two days, and that's all he did.

Li Jili glanced at her, "Now you don't have to detour to Hong Kong when you go to Taipei." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"You should also watch the news. At the very least, look at the financial news. ”

"Hmm."

"Xiao Tie is very busy at work, you have to be more considerate of him, care more about him, and share more for him, especially don't let him worry about family affairs."

"Dad, I know it all."

"There's still a gap between knowing and doing."

"......" Li Yaotang lowered his head, "What did he tell you?" "He had a good relationship with his father, she knew it.

"Not really."

"Oh."

"It's just that you can't go home a few times a year, and Dad can't find a chance to say something." Li Jili took a sip of tea, "You are a sensible child, I met your father-in-law at a meeting a few days ago, and he praised you for ......" Li Jili said this, and heard a noise outside.

Li Yaotang looked up and saw that the door of the main house was pushed open, and Fu Gan came in.

Seeing Li Yaotang, the smile on Fu Gan's face froze.

It was only for a moment, and he greeted Li Jili with a smile: "Uncle, I'm back." ”

Li Jili nodded and said with a smile: "Yes!" Now the person is complete! Why are you the only one? What about Jiajia? ”

"When she entered the door, her mother called her to the kitchen."

"How can you call a guest into the kitchen?" Li Jili smiled.

"What kind of guest is she?" Li Yaotang raised his eyes to look at him, Fu Gan avoided her gaze, and said, "Mom said that you can eat." ”

Li Yaotang felt that the Fu Gan in front of him was very unfamiliar, as if he had never known him. They have already met, more than once, and his current performance makes Li Yaotang feel like he can't say it, like a thorn stuck in his throat, not up or down.

"Good!" Li Jili called Li Yaotang, "Come, eat." "He went ahead.

There is already a table of dishes in the dining room. Shen Peiyi beckoned them to take their seats, and called "Jiajia, bring out the soup." Li Yaotang saw a girl bring a soup tray out of the kitchen and place it firmly in the center of the table.

"It smells so good! We're in for a good night. She smiled and took off her insulated gloves. Feeling Li Yaotang's gaze, she smiled generously at Li Yaotang.

This smile, the pear vortex shallow. Li Yaotang was momentarily stunned, thinking to himself, how could this girl have such a charming smile? She didn't know how to respond for a while, so she just looked at it in a daze.

Li Jili smiled and asked everyone to sit down, while saying, "Tang Tang, come, let me introduce you, this is Jiajia, An Zhijia, your brother's fiancΓ©e; Jiajia, this is my daughter, Li Yaotang, Tang Tang. You get to know each other, and soon we will be a family. Li Jili smiled.

Li Yaotang's heart jumped. Look at her father, look at Fu Gan, and look at Aunt Shen, they are all watching her, as if waiting for her reaction. She lifted her hand to the frame.

An Zhijia nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Li." I've admired Tangtang's name for a long time, but I haven't had the chance to meet. As she spoke, her eyes also turned to Li Yaotang.

Li Yaotang smiled. I wanted to say something, but I couldn't find the right words for a while. So I had to stretch out my hand. An Zhijia grinned, stuffed the heat-insulating gloves into Fu Gan's hand, and held his hand. The two women looked at each other and smiled.

Shen Peiyi beckoned everyone to move their chopsticks.

Li Yaotang picked up the chopsticks. There was a strange feeling of numbness on his hands, as if An Zhijia's hands were still there. She restrained herself from letting her left hand drive away the strangeness for her right hand.

Shen Peiyi kept putting vegetables on Li Yaotang, "Eat more, Ji Li, do you think Tang Tang has lost weight again?" ”

Li Jili smiled, "She's not fat in the first place." ”

Shen Peiyi scooped a bowl of soup for Li Yaotang and said, "This kid is not picky eaters, but he doesn't eat much." ”

Li Yaotang said thank you to Shen Peiyi. There was a pile of vegetables in front of her, and she looked already stressed.

An Zhijia laughed on the side, took the bowl in his hand, and said, "Auntie, I'm going to serve the second bowl." ”

"It's only the second bowl? I still want you to eat the third and fourth bowls. Shen Peiyi smiled happily.

Fu Gan laughed, "Mom, do we have enough rice?" ”

An Zhijia glared at him and asked, "Actually, you want to say - you have to reestimate the cost of marriage, right?" ”

"That's not true, anyway, you can earn enough to buy rice." Fu Gan smiled.

An Zhijia took the back of the chopsticks and knocked the back of Fu Gan's hand twice, and said to Shen Peiyi half-coquettishly: "Oh, auntie, it's all your ...... to blame."

"Why do you blame me?" Shen Peiyi pretended to be surprised.

"Your cooking is so delicious. And," An Zhijia smiled, glancing at Fu Gan who was eating with his head down, "How can you make Fu Gan so handsome?" He's so handsome, every time he bullies me, I can't help but get angry......"

Fu Gan's face turned red all of a sudden, he didn't expect An Zhijia to say so bluntly in front of his mother and Uncle Hutchi. With his mother's loud laughter in his ears and An Zhijia's coquettishness, he subconsciously went to see Li Yaotang. She was looking down at the bowl full of top-notch food, and she couldn't see her expression.

All this only made Li Yaotang feel that she wanted to escape, she shouldn't have come, she couldn't melt in, here, she was superfluous.

After the meal, the family gathered in the hall to drink tea.

An Zhijia was well-behaved and kind to coax Li Jili and his wife very happy. She chattered about this and that, and after a while, she asked Li Yaotang how she prepared for the wedding.

"I'm going to be so busy that I don't know what to do. The wedding company was invited, saying that it was up to them, but there was nothing they should worry about. ”

Li Yaotang thought about it, yes, what was she like when she got married? was asked by An Zhijia like this, Li Yaotang was speechless for a while. She thought about it again, but still didn't know where to start.

Li Jili saw that his daughter was at a loss, took over the words, and said with a smile: "Tang Tang was simple when he got married. The two families had a wedding preparation group on one side, and they found a general manager to coordinate, held several meetings, and everything was finalized. There is no use of a wedding company at all. The wedding was not a big deal, but the relatives and friends of the two families got together together. Our family is not a flamboyant family, and the He family is also low-key. The wedding of Tang Tang and Xiao Tie is indeed a model of simplicity. ”

When Shen Peiyi heard Li Jili say this, he immediately expressed a different opinion: "Ouch, what, the He family said that it was low-key, but the first day of the wedding wine and the second day of the wedding banquet, add up, it is better to put it aside for a day to save trouble." I just said that our family has big rules, and the He family is even more particular. Ouch, I can't eat it. You forgot? On the third day, when our family returned to the banquet, as soon as her aunt saw Tang Tang, the first thing she said was - how to marry this in the past only one or two days, and our Tang Tang lost a lot of weight! It's so distressing...... Tang Tang, do you remember? What did the aunt say? ”
