Chapter 7 Be the daughter-in-law of the Xi family
"Thank you, grandpa......" Shen Mi laughed dryly, took the red envelope very cooperatively, and glanced at Xi Lie without a trace.
I saw a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't feel guilty at all for pitting her in the ditch, so calm.
The family greeted her with a smile, and after a circle, Shen Mi already had several red envelopes in his hands, thick and heavy.
She smiled so hard that she suddenly felt like a swaggering liar.
While they weren't looking, she stabbed the man next to her with her elbow without a trace, then pulled him aside by the sleeve of his shirt.
"Why don't you follow the script?! What do you want?! She whispered anxiously.
"I've made them happy, and I'll stop pursuing the past." Xi Lie lowered his eyes, and there was emotion on his face that she couldn't read.
"This, where is this coaxing, what is the difference between this and swaggering?" Shen Mi was angry, "They have a daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, how can I coax them?" Please sober up! ”
Xi Lie's eyes flashed when he heard this, and when he saw her wrinkled little face, his eyes were full of puzzlement.
"They just want a granddaughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, and it's you who screwed it all up."
"Yes, yes, it's because I can't live with your Xi family, what do you want me to do so that I don't mention this stubble? Yesterday I hugged your thighs and apologized, and today you called me to explain that I am here too, what do you still want? Shen Mi's scalp was numb, and he resisted with a clatter.
Unreasonable, completely unreasonable!
"It's very simple, compensation for damage." Xi Lie said, as soon as he raised his hand, his big hand stroked her head.
Shen Mi was about to go back, but when he turned his head, he saw that the young man named Xi Yu was covering his mouth and peeking at the side.
A good man doesn't suffer immediate losses, he pits himself and he is at a loss, if she makes his family unhappy, she really can't live by herself.
Today's play, he has to finish it head-on, otherwise he will have to worry about it afterwards!
Because of her arrival, the Xi family's reception today is completely the treatment of entertaining VIPs, Shen Mi had to stick to Xi Lie's side inch by inch because of his weak heart, in the eyes of others, it is really a harmonious picture of husband and wife singing.
"Xiao Mi, let me take you around?" Xi Lie's mother seemed to see that she was bored and uncomfortable, and invited with a smile.
Shen Mi subconsciously glanced at Xi Lie, who knew that Xi Lie just nodded, and then began to chat with a few of them about topics that she couldn't understand.
In desperation, she had no choice but to agree, and followed behind.
"Lie'er is the eldest son in the family, and he is used to being independent, and sometimes he may not understand the girl's mind." Chen Man said softly as he led her to the side hall.
Not only does she not understand, but people who treat her as a spy and a liar have nothing to do, how can the brain circuit be understood by ordinary people?
"I see that you are quite young, but I am quite curious about how you met Lie'er."
Shen Mi chuckled in his heart.
This, this is a proposition!
Her mind was racing, and she hesitated for two or three seconds, unable to think of a suitable statement.
"If you don't want to say it, you won't be reluctant, it's just that during this time, you've worked hard!" Chen Man said, his eyes drifted to her stomach, making her subconsciously hold her stomach and not answer.
"Don't worry, we will let Lie'er give you a name as soon as possible, so that you can come to the Xi family and raise the baby with peace of mind."
Shen Mi almost choked on his own saliva when he heard this.
Her intuition told her that this matter was not as simple as Xi Lie said to make them happy!
"Auntie, what is this?" Under the pressure of Chen Man's questions, she had no choice but to catch a glimpse of the window on the side framed with many beautiful patterns, and she quickly diverted the topic.
"These?" Chen Man smiled, then opened the window and took out one for her to admire.
Shen Mi held it carefully, and found that the framed inside was actually exquisite embroidery, a peony enchanting and domineering entrenched in the center, a stitch and a thread tightly seamed, exquisite, at first glance, it was from the master's hand.
"Lie'er's grandmother was very good at embroidery, and when she was young, she also received insoles for those soldiers who fought against the war. It's just that...... Haven't touched it since I fell ill. Chen Man said, showing a little sadness on his face.
Shen Mi felt that he was also absolutely amazing, and the ability to not open a pot and mention which pot was probably his own bonus.
Stunned, she didn't know how to answer.
"But fortunately, you're here, I really haven't seen her so happy for a long time."
Shen Mi blinked when she heard this, and the picture of Xi Lie interrupting her explanation just now popped up in her mind.
Suddenly, I felt as if I had done a good deed.
Chen Man took her around the huge house, went to the flower garden carefully tended by Grandpa Xi, and finally took her to a super large room on the second floor.
The furniture inside is covered with cloth, and there is a large floor-to-ceiling window facing the woods on the side, and an oversized balcony on the other side with a view of the empty front yard.
"This is the room we prepared for you and Lie'er."
Her room with Xi Lie...... Room......
"Okay, it's a big ......" Shen Mi laughed dryly, and responded to the road in a void.
"Lie'er's grandfather customized a crib overnight, but he hasn't delivered it yet......" Chen Man couldn't help but smile happily when he saw that she seemed to be very satisfied.
"......" Shen Misheng sighed helplessly, and then he clearly felt the taste of riding a tiger.
After walking around the house, I was ready to have lunch.
Although the family was happy, Shen Mi was a little absent-minded about the delicacies of the mountains and seas, and just wanted to end the dinner early, and discussed the countermeasures with Xi Lie first.
Obviously, Xi Lie had the same idea as her on this point, and after lunch, he casually found a reason to take her away from the Xi family.
"Mr. Xi, my performance today is good, right?"
In the car, Shen Mi sighed tiredly.
The nerves that had been tense for most of the day were relaxed at this moment.
"Yes." Xi Lie made a single tone, which was an answer.
"So, my mistake yesterday can be written off, right? We don't have to see each other again, do we? She blinked, and asked as a matter of course.
Not for anything else, today's situation of his family really scared her as an impostor, and she didn't want to dream a lot at night, so she had to make it clear to him quickly, and never see each other again in the future, it's best.
"By the way, this is the red envelope they gave me, I didn't even open it, and I returned it to you as it was!" Shen Mi said, took out a bunch of red envelopes from his bag, and placed them neatly in front of him.
Xi Lie pursed his lips and didn't speak.
This strange silence made Shen Mi's scalp tingle.
This person will not be ...... Regret it?!
"Shen Mi."
After a long silence, he spoke in a deep voice.
"What?" Somehow, she always felt a sense of foreboding, and a little heart couldn't beat uncontrollably.
Xi Liejian's eyebrows frowned slightly, and his narrow eyes stared at her for a long time, "No need to act." “
"Be the daughter-in-law of the Xi family! When the child is born, I raise it. ”
