Chapter 68: Mother Leng's Worries

The speaker has no intention of listening, not to mention, Li Manxue knows what happened on the day Xu Xiangsi left three years ago.

She involuntarily tightened her nails, and the more she looked closely, the more she felt that Xu Yuanyuan and Leng Mo were seventy percent alike, and she hadn't noticed it before because the child looked very much like her mother, so that everyone ignored this.

If this is really the child of cold ink

Li Manxue couldn't help but shudder.

What Leng Mu said was not only taken seriously by Li Manxue in the corner, but also Leng Mo, who came out of the guest room, heard this.

He took a closer look at the little Lori, and found that what his mother said was not a joke, and the child's eyebrows and eyes were really a bit like him.

"Sisi, you've worked hard abroad in the past few years, and you're still with a child, alas-"

Several people chatted, and the topic was somehow turned here by Leng's mother, she opened her mouth slightly gloomily, and then glared at her only son.

"You are really Sisi so young, why do you rest assured that she will study abroad?"

Although the two elders did not directly ask Xu Xiangsi what kind of suffering she suffered outside, and how the child was conceived by mistake, the sentence that asked Xiang Xiang Zi already reflected the dissatisfaction in her heart.

This is thanks to Xu Xiangsi, who is now back safe and sound with the child, what if the mother and daughter have any accidents halfway?

However, Leng Mo did not feel remorse or introspection for his decision at all, and even his tone was unchanged and calm.

"There's nothing wrong with nurturing her independence from a young age."

The son has always had this attitude, although Leng's mother is used to seeing it, she still can't help choking, "Cultivate and cultivate, what do you need to cultivate her?" Sisi is so obedient, sensible and worry-free, you won't protect her a little? We asked you to take care of her, and that's how you take care of her at home? ”

The more Leng Mu spoke, the more angry she became, and her voice unconsciously improved a lot.

Thinking about Xu Xiangsi's parents who died early, Leng's mother was congested for a while, and she was also very guilty, taking Xu Xiangsi back to Leng's family was to hope that she would have a carefree life, who knew that her son would be so harsh on her?

Seeing his mother like this, Leng Mo, who has always been strong, couldn't continue to talk back, so he had to lower his voice and be relieved.

"Mom, don't you think Sisi is back? Now is not the time to worry about that. ”

couldn't bear to see Leng Mo being criticized by his elders, Xu Xiangsi hurriedly explained: "Auntie, it's not about Leng Mo, I volunteered to go abroad, and the environment of Andao University is very good, and I learned a lot there." ”

It wasn't until the girl opened her mouth that Leng's mother held back the next criticism, and turned to smile helplessly at Xu Xiangsi: "You, you have been like this since you were a child, and you have always been so partial to your uncle." ”

Xu Xiangsi smiled wryly, and secretly glanced at Leng Mo's face, but the other party had no expression, and she was not moved by her "plea" at all, and she looked away in disappointment.

"Grandma, the piano you just played is so good!"

The little girl in Leng's mother's arms attracted the attention of adults with a word.

"Good girl, your mother's piano was also taught by your grandmother." The cold mother "showed off" to the child with a smile.

When Xu Xiangsi heard this, he felt a little melancholy.

In fact, when she pestered Leng's mother to learn the piano, it was to please Leng Mo, because she heard that Leng Mo liked the piano very much, but then she finally learned one or two songs, but Leng Mo had less and less intersection with her, let alone listening to her play the piano.

The old man and the child on the sofa chatted happily, and the young man was not easy to say anything, so he had to cooperate with the elders and exchanged a few words of pleasantry, which looked particularly harmonious.

Finally it was dinner time, Xu Xiangsi breathed a sigh of relief, after eating, she still took the child back to the room, what is the matter with her daughter in the Leng family? Originally, she was an outsider.

The fragrant meal quickly aroused the appetite of little Lori, and she lay on the stool by herself, and her crumbling and reckless appearance made Leng Mu tremble for a while, and she was afraid of falling off.

"I'm going to sit with Uncle Leng." When the little girl sat on the stool, she jumped out coldly.

Xu Xiangsi just wanted to speak, but saw that Leng Mo was already sitting next to her daughter.

Now Yuanyuanxin was satisfied, and picked up his chopsticks to clip a vegetable into the cold ink bowl with an unskilled movement, but the vegetable juice accidentally splashed on the man's white shirt.

"Ah, Uncle Leng, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to"

Little Lori realized that she was hairy, and blinked quite aggrievedly, wanting to reach out to wipe the stains on the man's body, but Leng's mother took the round hand with a look of pity.

"Good boy, it doesn't matter, your uncle will take care of it himself, come, let's try this."

Xu Xiangsi watched from the side crying and laughing, Leng's mother is a typical "woman over man", but Leng Mo on the side didn't care, but rubbed the little girl's head and said, "It's okay, Yuanyuan continue to eat." ”

After speaking, Leng Mo got up and went to the bathroom, Xu Xiangsi was about to follow, but in the next second, Li Manxue had already stood up and accompanied the man.

Xu Xiangsi clenched his fists, and it took a long time to resist the impulse and calmly pick up the chopsticks.

Also, Li Manxue is Leng Mo's nominal girlfriend, and what qualifications does she have to care about Leng Mo?

"This woman doesn't have any etiquette at the table." Leng's mother was a hundred dissatisfied with Li Manxue, and immediately collapsed her face, "I don't know if I leave casually, and I don't know the elders, is this table a dead person?" ”

Xu Xiangsi almost didn't have a mouthful of soup when he heard this.

You must know that Leng's father and mother have never been people who care about this kind of cumbersome etiquette, and when the family used to eat, she also went on and off the table casually, but Leng's mother never said such a heavy word.

It seems that the Leng family's prejudice against Li Manxue is not a star.

When Leng Mo and Li Manxue were served again, Leng Mu's face was even more obvious, but because of the presence of children, it was inconvenient.

finally finished the meal, and Leng Mu asked Leng Mo to send Li Manxue away with a gloomy face.

Originally, Li Manxue lived in this house, but now there are not many more of her, but Father Leng's mother wants to rest here tonight, and she will never let her stay here.

Seeing Leng Mo drive Li Manxue away, Xu Xiangsi stood at the door, his heart was sour.

Sure enough, no matter when, Leng Mo always defends this girlfriend of his like this.

"Sisi, okay, don't stand at the door and blow the wind, it's not like your uncle won't come back." Probably because the girl's expression was too lonely, Leng's mother saw a trace of strangeness in her heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to speak.

Hearing the word "uncle", Xu Xiangsi suddenly turned his head and said, "Auntie, there is something I want to talk to you about." ”

It was rare to see the girl show such a serious expression, Leng Mu nodded, she vaguely knew what the other party was going to say.

The two came to the unmanned balcony on the third floor, Xu Xiangsi did not pretend to be hypocritical, and went straight to the point: "Auntie, thank you and your uncle very much for letting my uncle take me in back then, so that I can grow up so safely and healthily." ”

Leng's mother smiled shallowly, "You kid, why did you suddenly say this, with the friendship between your parents and our Leng family back then, of course you can't stand by and watch, isn't it out of sight for you to say this?" ”

Xu Xiangsi lowered his head shyly and smiled, but when he raised his eyes again, he was full of determination.

"Auntie, I know that you made these decisions for my own good, but now, you have also seen it, Yuan Yuan just called Uncle Leng Mo, and I also called Uncle Leng Mo for so many years, don't you think this generation needs to be reconsidered?"

Leng's mother was not much surprised by Xu Xiangsi's proposal, she always understood that Xu Xiangsi would one day raise this crucial question, after all, this child was not from the Leng family.

"I'll tell you the truth, this is also something that his father and I have been thinking about recently, seeing that you are about to get married, and your household registration should be independent, but don't worry, the Leng family will always have your place."

Hearing Leng Mu's sincere tone, Xu Xiangsi couldn't help laughing.

"Auntie, thank you for understanding my decision."

Speaking of this, Leng's mother was a little melancholy, "I heard that Yuanyuan's father is the one in Mayor Ji's family?" What about others? Is the family good to you? ”

Xu Xiangsi smiled reluctantly, "He's good to me." ”

Seeing that she avoided talking about the other party's family, Leng's mother had a little bit in her heart, "If their family has any opinions about you, you must tell your aunt, who else can my Leng family's children be bullied?" ”

"I know, aunt, you can take a good rest when you come back, just wait to drink the wedding wine of me and Ji Weiyang."

Seeing that the girl looked quite playful, Leng's mother was relieved, patted her hand and said: "Even if you enter the Ji family in the future, remember to come back often, Yuanyuan, this child is very cute, I like her very much." ”

Xu Xiangsi smiled and nodded.

After finishing the matter, the stone in Xu Xiangsi's heart finally fell to the ground.

After returning to the bedroom, her daughter was sitting on the bed obediently waiting for Xu Xiangsi to enter the door, and when she saw her coming in, she hurriedly said: "Mommy, I want to listen to this story today, can you tell me?"

"Okay, you lie down first." Xu Xiangsi pulled a thin quilt for the child, took the storybook and read it.

Outside the door that had not yet been closed, Leng Mo stood still.

He had just returned from sending Li Manxue back, and along the way, he was thinking about whether to buy some gifts for Sisi and Yuanyuan, and in the end, he still brought back a little bit of dolls and snacks that the little girl liked, and unexpectedly heard the girl gently reading the bedtime story at the door, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips.

The knock on the door was very soft, Xu Xiangsi turned around, and saw Leng Mo walking in.

The moment she saw the man, the girl on the bed suddenly sat up, "Uncle Leng!" ”

Xu Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, and also turned his head.
