Chapter 131: Don't be too polite
"No, Mom must know, it's the first time I came to the door, it's impossible not to talk for a while."
Xu Luqing shook his head, his mother is never ambiguous in major matters.
"However, according to Mom's cooking speed, she may really be waiting for us to go back to eat."
Although the loaches had to be cleaned up before they were done, Li Xiuzhi had already boiled the water while they were working, just waiting for them to come back with the loaches.
If they hadn't mentioned the matter of returning to their parents' house, the family would have sat down to eat by now.
"Then let's go faster, don't make Mom wait too long."
When Lin Wanwan heard this, she was a little anxious, she didn't want Li Xiuzhi to wait too long.
"Mom must be standing at the door watching us."
Xu Luqing is used to it, and every time he goes home, Li Xiuzhi stands at the door and waits for him.
"This is her habit, even if you go out for five minutes, she has to look at you at the door, don't worry, just walk at your normal speed, you will get tired if you push too fast."
Compared with Li Xiuzhi, he was more worried about Lin Wanwan, who couldn't see the road clearly in the dark and was tripped by the soil clods and branches on the road.
Although you can take advantage of the moonlight to walk forward, the brightness of the moonlight is limited, and it is not as smooth as walking in the daytime.
"If you can't see the road clearly, and you trip over something, it's even less worthwhile."
Xu Luqing's words made sense, and Lin Wanwan did not refute him.
"Okay, I'll slow down a bit."
But it's easy for them to go back, because it's a trail, so it's much closer.
There was silence all around, not even a single insect or bird chirping.
Although Xu Luqing knew that Lin Wanwan was not afraid, he still found a topic and chatted with her.
"Let's dig this river for two more days, it is estimated that it will be about the same, anyway, we are not far from the river, let's go around the river and take a look."
Xu Luqing suddenly thought of the situation during the day, and he always felt that someone should be restless at night.
If someone saw Lin Wanwan entering and leaving the river freely, he was bold enough to dig the river, and he might want to wash away the entire river.
After all, no one knows how much water will flow out of the river without control after the river is dug up, and whether it will flood their village.
"I'm not worried, you catch a few fish and people are red-eyed, so many people dig loaches today, and those who are assigned to distant places, some people can't even dig a handful of wild vegetable roots, it's hard to say that they won't be unbalanced."
Xu Luqing and Lin Wanwan explained that he didn't mention Wang Lanying's family, but this big family really likes to get something for nothing.
"Okay, then go over and have a look, it's not bad for a while."
Lin Wanwan pondered for a moment and felt that this made sense, after all, a well-known honest person like Xie Jiaming didn't have a crooked mind.
"I hope Mom didn't wait for us, so I feel better."
Lin Wanwan is not a person who doesn't know what to do, she remembers Li Xiuzhi's goodness, so naturally she won't be angry with her because of a dinner, not to mention that she also said before she left that she didn't have to wait for them.
"It's all a family, you don't have to think so, if your mother is willing to wait, let her wait, otherwise she won't feel comfortable."
Xu Luqing felt that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law suddenly became polite, probably because they cared about each other, so they were afraid that the other party would be sad.
"You don't have to be too polite to Mom, or she'll feel awkward."
Xu Luqing saw Lin Wanwan and Zhao Guiying get along with her own eyes, and only then did she know that she was so coquettish, and she naturally revealed her dependence.
