Chapter 156: An Awkward Family Dinner

Although it was not the first time she had come here, Li Moran still felt indescribable depression, although she had been cheering for herself in her heart, she still showed a timid look.

"Second Young Master, Miss Li!" Steward Wang came over to welcome them in, and then whispered in Meng Xing's ear: "The chairman is not in a good mood today, and the second young master should try not to bump into him." ”

"yes, I see." Meng Xing nodded, this was something he had expected a long time ago.

"Meng Xing is back!" Ji Chunmei got up and came over, obviously reminding him not to argue with his father from the look in his eyes.

Ay! It's all because of me that the atmosphere has become so tense, Li Moran blamed himself a little, and went over to greet Ji Chunmei: "Hello mother-in-law!" ”

Ji Chunmei nodded reluctantly, pulled Li Moran to her side, and then said to Meng Xing: "You go to the study, remember that you are a son, talk less and listen more, your father is just nagging." ”

Meng Xing glanced at Li Moran uncomfortably, and then walked over to the stairs, Ji Chunmei asked Li Moran to sit down, and then ordered the kitchen to bring the tonic soup over.

"Thank you, mother-in-law." Li Moran is still very cautious.

"Indifferent, since you and Meng Xing are already like this, and now the outside world knows your identity, we can't admit it if we want to, what about the past, don't pursue it anymore, I just hope that you can keep your duty, don't think about what you shouldn't think, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, you know?" Ji Chunmei suddenly said very seriously.

"Oh." Li Moran didn't seem to understand very much, but she still nodded.

When the tonic soup was brought over, Li Moran was stunned, there were a few wolfberries and yams in it, but what was the black one? Could it be Wu*?

Uh, what to do? Li Moran is not a picky eater, but he is particularly sensitive to black chicken, not that he doesn't like to eat it, but he doesn't dare to eat it since he was a child, and he always thinks that it is black as if it is poisonous.

"Why don't you have an appetite?" Ji Chunmei looked at Li Moran's ever-changing face strangely and asked in a low voice.

Li Moran hurriedly shook his head, he couldn't be embarrassed, even if it was really poison, he had to eat it!

"Don't like that?" Ji Chunmei continued to ask.

"I like it, I can't eat such a big bowl." Li Moran had no choice but to find an excuse.

"It doesn't matter, you can eat as much as you want." Ji Chunmei said and glanced upstairs, I don't know how their father and son were talking?

Li Moran also had all kinds of worries in her heart, and slowly began to eat, to her surprise, the taste was not bad, better than she imagined, I don't know if it was the chef's reason, or the black chicken was already delicious.

Ji Chunmei saw that Li Moran was still very restrained, and she was also uncomfortable, so she got up and said, "You eat slowly, I'll go to the flower room to have a look, and after eating, let the people in the kitchen come and collect it." ”

"yes, okay." Li Moran was relieved to watch Ji Chunmei leave, and quickly ate a large bowl of black chicken soup.

Just saw Steward Wang walking past him with two cups, Li Moran hurriedly stood up and stopped him: "Steward Wang, are you going to the study to deliver coffee?" ”

"It's not coffee, it's tea," Steward Wang stopped and said, "Miss Li, it's better not to go in person, after all, you are not in good health now." ”

"It's okay, I'll go." Li indifferently got up and took the tray with two cups of tea from Steward Wang's hand, she was worried that Meng Xing couldn't hold back for a while, and quarreled again.

Seeing that Li Moran insisted, Steward Wang had no choice but to give in, and whispered: "When you get to the door of the study, stop and listen, if there is a quarrel inside, don't go in first." ”

"Thank you, Steward Wang." Li Moran's heart was warm, and Steward Wang always took good care of her.

Carefully walked up the stairs and came to the door of the study, Li Moran stopped and took a deep breath, it seemed to be very quiet inside, which made her even more worried, knocked on the door gently, there was still no sound inside, Li Moran pushed the door open, half of his body just walked in, suddenly a black shadow flew in front of his eyes, hit the wall with a "pop", and then fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

"Get out!" Immediately after, an old and powerful voice came.

Li Moran was so frightened that her hand shook, and the tray in her hand fell to the ground, and at the same time, she also saw the unknown object clearly, which turned out to be an inkstone.

Looking at the tea that was spilled by himself and the mess all over the ground, Li indifferently squatted down in a panic and wanted to clean it up, but he didn't know where to put it away.

"Don't move, get up." Meng Xing didn't know when he came to Li Moran's side and helped her up.

This little thing can't be done well, Li Moran looked at Meng Xing embarrassedly, and then looked at Meng Hai, the inkstone just now should have been lost by him, but at this time Meng Hai also seemed to be surprised.

Steward Wang downstairs also hurried over when he heard the sound, and took all the fault on himself, which made Li Moran blame himself even more.

"Actually, it's what I requested, and it's not about Steward Wang." Li Moran whispered.

"Well, it doesn't matter." Meng Xing motioned to Steward Wang to find someone to clean up, and then pulled Li Moran to Meng Hai and said, "No matter what your attitude is, and whether you accept your soon-to-be-born granddaughter or not, Li Moran is the only woman in my life!" ”

Meng Hai didn't speak, but the anger in his eyes had said everything, and the collision of his and Meng Xing's eyes was like the intersection of two currents, which made Li Innoran shudder.

When she was outside the study just now, it was so quiet inside, couldn't they be confronting each other like this?

"What's going on?" Ji Chunmei hurriedly ran up, her heart was about to rise to her throat.

"Mother-in-law, I accidentally spilled the tea." Li looked at Ji Chunmei indifferently and apologetically.

Of course, Ji Chunmei can also see that Meng Hai and Meng Xing have started the mode of getting along between their father and son again, did they have a grudge in their previous life? So even if you become a father and son in this life, you are still hostile?

"Steward Wang, how's lunch going?" Meng Xing suddenly turned around and asked.

Steward Wang, who was standing at the door, looked at Meng Xing with some surprise, usually in such a situation, Meng Xing would choose to leave, what's wrong today?

"What are you doing? Tell the kitchen to hurry up and prepare the table! Ji Chunmei was willing to stay for lunch when she heard that Meng Xing was still willing to stay, not to mention how excited she was!

Li Moran also looked at Meng Xing in surprise, was he doing this for himself? If so, shouldn't she have come in so abruptly, maybe it wouldn't have been so bad?

"Let's go downstairs." Meng Xing took Li Moran's hand and walked outside, while Meng Hai's eyes followed him all the time, from the anger at the beginning to gradually becoming cold.

"My son is willing to regress, don't be too persistent, forget it." After everyone went out, Ji Chunmei cautiously walked to Meng Hai's side and said.

"You also said that he is a son, do I need to bow down in front of him as a father? Now how many people outside are watching the jokes of our Meng family, saying that we have driven Xiao Ou crazy, saying that this woman is a junior superior, and saying that our Meng family is ......" Meng Hai suddenly swallowed the following words.

But the atmosphere was already very embarrassing, in fact, when Ji Chunmei met Meng Hai, Meng Hai also had a fiancΓ©e, but she couldn't resist her pursuit and family strength, and in the end Meng Hai still chose her.

Speaking of which, the Meng family does have such genes, but Meng Xing and Li Moran are not like that, but the rumor is like this, and an egg will eventually be passed on as an ostrich egg.

It is said that there is no wind and no waves, and flies do not bite seamless eggs, but sometimes, we don't go to find trouble, naturally there is trouble to find the door, and we can't hide at all, Meng Hai is a good-looking person, and Meng Xing's marriage does give him a headache.

Although he also knew that there was no room for this matter to be returned, and he didn't expect any miracles, fortunately, he had already enjoyed his old age, and as long as he was okay in the future, he didn't bother to meet those so-called friends, and his ears could be clean.

But he does not allow the company's reputation or interests to be damaged because of such a thing, which is fatal to him, after all, Meng is his life's work, above all else.

Ji Chunmei appeased again, Meng Haicai went downstairs with her, the dining table was already set, Meng Xing and Li Moran stood aside and waited for them to come down.

"Father-in-law, it's time to eat." Li Moran saw them go downstairs and hurriedly greeted them.

"Hmm." Ji Chunmei responded, in fact, there is nothing wrong with this daughter-in-law, she just doesn't like herself.

Every time the family has a rare dinner, the atmosphere at the table is unusually cold and awkward, Li Moran doesn't know what to say, maybe everyone is reluctantly insisting, which makes her miss the feeling of eating with her parents, that is what home should be.

"Wait a minute!" Ji Chunmei's sudden sound startled Li Moran, and the eggplant that had been clamped fell down again.

Ah! Isn't that good? Li Moran's whole face was written with a big embarrassment, what's wrong today, it's always wrong!

"Pregnant women can't eat eggplant, they will be cold!" Ji Chunmei saw that everyone was looking at her, and hurriedly said: "There are crabs, kelp, soft-shelled turtles, rice kernels, almonds, fungus, hawthorn, in short, many things can't be eaten, you should know it yourself!" ”

"I forgot, thank you mother-in-law!" Li Moran was a little caught off guard, she also deliberately checked this knowledge on the Internet, but where did she remember it!

"You must pay attention to what you should pay attention to, but you can eat more red dates, carrots, beef, yogurt, grapes or something, I heard that the eyes of the baby who eats grapes will be darker and brighter, we are daughters, or beautiful and likable." Ji Chunmei began to chant again.

Li Insanran looked at Ji Chunmei in surprise, isn't her mother-in-law not disgusted with the matter of being a girl? Or did she figure it out or accept her fate after a long time? Suddenly, I was a little moved!

"What do you see?" Ji Chunmei raised her voice, glared at Meng Xing and Li Moran, coughed lightly and said, "Anyway, it's the first child, and you can give birth in the future!" ”

Oh! Li Moran sighed in his heart, it turned out that he had planned it for a long time, but what if the second child was also a girl? Do you want to live?

"Eat without sleeping!" Although Meng Hai's voice was not loud, it was very majestic.

Ji Chunmei immediately shut up, after so many years of husband and wife, of course she knew that Meng Hai thought she was talking too much, but it was rare for her son to stay and eat, love the house and Wu, and wanted them to come back next time, so she could only care more about Li Moran!

Li Moran blinked his eyes twice, and glanced at Meng Xing, Meng Xing silently sandwiched the food for her, but Li Moran pursed his lips, he really couldn't eat it!
