Chapter Twenty-Nine: Mother's Love
After a while, the waiter found Lili's reservation information, she handed her passport and two room cards to Lili, bowed with a smile and said, "Look, Miss Lili, your room is B4506, welcome to stay at the Golden Dragon Hotel." ”
"Xie Lu Xie, please ask, does your hotel have a service for purchasing clothing?"
"Miss Lili, we have everything to make our guests feel convenient, convenient and at home. ”
"That's great, please help me order a well-fitting casual outfit for this handsome young man next to me, as well as underwear and sneakers, and the best ones will be delivered to our room early tomorrow morning." ”
The waiter was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at Zhang Lisheng, who looked like a monkey in the mountains and was swarthy, and showed his eight teeth and said, "Good Miss Lili, this 'handsome gentleman' has a good figure, and if you wear casual clothes, it doesn't look like it's particularly tailor-made."
I'll be ready by 8 a.m. tomorrow morning, and you can call the front desk and ask the staff on duty to take you to your room. ”
"Xie Lu Xie, casually, the clothes were bought for my son.
My biological son, who has inherited my genes, will of course be in good shape. Lili said proudly, picked up Zhang Lisheng, and walked to the lobby elevator under the guidance of the doorman.
Watching her walk away, the waitress quietly moved to the side of her good colleague, snickered and whispered: "Did you hear, the turtle with the bamboo basket on his back just now turned out to be from the United States."
This cosplay is so cool.
If I wasn't on duty, I would have taken a picture of him with my mobile phone, made up a 'guess it' post, and posted it on the Internet, and whoever could guess his place of origin would have asked him to invite me to dinner." ”
"It's not like it's inside and out, you just make money and don't lose money. ”
"Of course, who made me a beauty. ”
When two waitresses were chatting and laughing at the front desk of the hotel lobby, one was wearing an all-black tights and a black hood in the cold autumn breeze of the deep mountains, and a young man who was agile like a ghost in his movements, silently climbed over the wall and ran into the old house of the Zhang family in Yuwo Village.
The door of the house was pitch black, and in the dark night, the pupils of the man in black glowed with a faint yellow light like the eyes of a bobcat.
He looked around, his ears twitched slightly, and he suddenly frowned in confusion.
At three or four o'clock in the morning, it is the time when ordinary people are most tired and fall asleep, but there is not even the sound of human breathing in the ancient house.
The man in black shook his hands cautiously, and with his slight shaking, the tips of the nails on his ten fingers, which had looked like they had not been trimmed for a long time, suddenly flashed a cold light in the moonlight.
After that, he leaned down, landed on all fours, like a fierce beast, and rushed more than ten meters away, directly into the ancient mansion.
There was no ambush in the hall, but there were a few pieces of loose clothing, and there were some messy footprints on the wooden tables and chairs.
"Run, but also clever. The young man stood up, picked up Zhang Lisheng's scattered clothes from the ground and sniffed them, and walked out of the hall with his tall, thin body slightly rickety.
Stretching his muscles in the courtyard, he stepped up to the wall like a spring under his feet, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Lisheng, who was supposed to fight to the death at this moment, soaked in the bath in the bathroom of the luxury hotel suite and dozed off comfortably.
Golden Dragon Hotel's Business Suites are divided into two master and auxiliary bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, allowing two guests to live in the same room while maintaining plenty of private space.
After settling down, Lili gave up the more spacious and comfortable master bedroom to Zhang Lisheng and went into the deputy bedroom to freshen up.
After bathing and washing away the tiredness and fatigue of her body, she changed into clean domestic pajamas, and lay on the bed tossing and turning and unable to sleep, as if there was still a very important thing to do.
After thinking about it carefully, Lili hurriedly got out of bed, walked out of the bedroom, walked through the living room, and put her ear to Zhang Lisheng's bedroom door and listened carefully.
There was no snoring in the bedroom, only the faint sound of water.
After hesitating for a moment, Lili opened the door of her son's bedroom, walked to the door of the bathroom, and said softly, "Baby, Mom forgot to say goodnight to you."
It's three o'clock in the morning, rest early, good night, and have a good night. ”
In a drowsy state, Zhang Lisheng suddenly heard someone saying 'good night' to him outside the bathroom door, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while before he responded in a trance: "Alas, what, good night Eminem." ”
"By the way, baby, I think I heard you speak English in the car, and you seem to have said that you can communicate freely with people in spoken English, right?"
"Yes, in our village, a foreign teacher came in the first few years, and he always forced us to use English for the whole class. Zhang Lisheng replied, and at the same time silently added in his heart, "It was this foreigner teacher who hit and killed Daddy in a taxi." ”
Outside the door, Lili said in a very happy voice: "Why don't we talk in English from now on?"
Mom needs to know your English level so that she can help you choose which grade to enter in the United States. ”
“Certainlymadam.Mom。 (Of course you can, Mom)"
“Suchfinemuch,baby。 (It's so much more pleasing to the ears, baby). ”
"Yes, I don't know much about my English level, but the diplomatic teacher said that my English should be able to communicate with people in complex contexts.
At that time, he also suggested that he should study language-related departments and become a diplomat in the future. ”
Your English is really good, and it turns out to be an authentic New York accent, which is really incredible and surprising.
You passed the language barrier at once, which made Mom breathe a big sigh of relief, can we talk more baby baby?"
"Okay, can I not go to the United States?" Zhang Lisheng was inexplicably moved in his heart and blurted out.
Outside the door, there was silence for a moment Lili's voice was very low, but she said categorically: "Of course you can't baby."
It's getting late, it's time for us to rest, good night. ”
Then there was a sound of footsteps, and then the bedroom was quiet again.
The next day, Zhang Lisheng was sleepy-eyed and got up with a yawn.
He stepped on the soft carpet of the hotel bedroom with his bare feet, and his heart was suddenly startled, and he was stunned for a long time before he remembered where he was.
Life suddenly changes 180 degrees, and it's hard for anyone to adapt.
Zhang Lisheng washed his face with cold water in the bathroom, and felt that escape was not a way after all, so he held his witch worm and walked out of the room hesitantly.
Outside his bedroom is the living room of the suite, and the bright sunlight is pouring in through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows facing the street.
A coffee table fills the dining table, full of all kinds of fragrant Chinese-style breakfasts, and the soup alone has rice porridge, gruel, bean juice, peanut porridge and so on.
On the sofa next to the coffee table, Lily was spreading out several casual clothes similar in size to oversized children's clothes and taking a closer look.
Hearing Zhang Lisheng open the door, she stood up and looked at her son, and said in English with a smile: "Baby, you're up."
It's past breakfast time, and I'm counting that when you're about to wake up, I'll call you 'delivery', so come and eat."
After eating, we changed into the newly bought clothes and we went to take a photo of our ID.
I just asked the waiter, and when I left the hotel, there is a digital photo studio that specializes in taking ID photos.
Then we can have a good day in Rongcheng today, by the way, Mom still doesn't know how to say, have you been to Rongcheng?"
Zhang Lisheng didn't have Lili's nature, and after waking up, his performance was not as good as last night, and he couldn't even shout 'Eminem' at this time, so he could only answer Mumu: "No." ”
"Then let's find a guide, or search for attractions on the Internet.
What are you holding, baby?"
Hearing Eminem ask about the witch worm, Zhang Lisheng unnaturally raised the mountain toad and explained indiscriminately: "I, my mascot, and, and the only toy, we have stayed together since we were children, and we have never been separated. ”
"It's like a frog, it's a frog, it's a wooden frog, right?"
Zhang Lisheng said improvisedly: "Yes, its name is Mountain Toad, and its shape comes from the ancient auspicious legend of China, which has the implication of turning evil into good fortune."
When my dad wasn't at home, he was there for me. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Lisheng's lies became more and more fluent, and his expression became more and more natural.
As a veteran educator, Lily immediately realized that the ridiculous and ugly frog was likely to be the 'target' of her son's emotional transfer, and she felt a pain in her heart, smiled and sat down again, patted the sofa next to her and said, "Baby, come and sit down for breakfast."
A wooden frog the size of a soccer ball is your mascot and is inseparable from you, so you didn't take it to school before, did you?"
Zhang Lisheng sat down next to Eminem, put the witch insect that was motionless when he didn't listen to the witch spell at his feet, nodded and said, "It's a bit heavy, but it's not inconvenient to carry it to school in a bamboo basket." ”
"Since you have this habit, then when you go to the United States, you can still be inseparable from your cute mascot, and your mother will buy you a big schoolbag.
Eat breakfast, the porridge is going to be cold. Lili peeled off a boiled egg, put it in the rice porridge, and sent the porridge to her son, saying in a way that was groomed rather than forced.
The next meal was the warmest breakfast in Zhang Lisheng's life, but at the same time, he also felt very awkward and struggling in his heart, and he wanted to run back to the deep mountain Miao Village that he was familiar with, gave birth to and nurtured him.
But thoughts are only thoughts after all, Zhang Lisheng fell deeper and deeper into the 'mother's love net' compiled by Lili, and the only thing he finally put into action was to change into the casual clothes that Lili had specially purchased at the hotel after breakfast.
