Chapter 170 It’s not easy to be a son-in-law (please subscribe)

Lin Lu suddenly felt a lot more relaxed by staying in the kitchen with Li Xingruo on the pretext of helping with the work.

It's not that I can't cope with chatting with Uncle Li outside, but I'm just a little frightened. I'm afraid that I'll say the wrong thing or do something not good enough. When I think about the two or three days of getting along like this, Lin Lu feels a little numb.

"Okay, it's none of your business. You can go out and have tea with my dad."

Li Xingruo took the big basin in his hand, put the chickens, ducks and geese in it on the chopping board, trimmed the corners skillfully with a knife, and then put the whole one in the pot to stew.

"No, Sister Xingruo, I'll dig some ginger for you... Where is the ginger?"

"My mother is digging outside."

"...Then I'll peel the garlic for you!"

"I don't usually see you loving peeling garlic so much at home?"

"Who said that! I like peeling garlic the most!"

Seeing him clinging to her side like this, Li Xingruo was angry and funny. After all, it was her own home, but she was ten thousand times calmer than Lin Lu. The mood of the two of them at the moment was somewhat similar to what they usually felt at his home.

It's like switching over.

Lin Lu stood by the sink and was trying to peel garlic. Li Xingruo suddenly came over, stood on tiptoes and took a bite on his face.

Normally, he would have dared to hug her back and push her back, but he didn't dare to do so now. Instead, he was so frightened by her sudden teasing that he looked outside the kitchen in panic and helped her.

The pair of pretentious glasses on the bridge of his nose, his face a little red, lowered his voice and said: "Sister Xingruo, what are you doing?! I will be finished if Uncle Li and the others see me later!"

"hey-hey……"

Seeing that he was like a young lady, Li Xingruo became even more excited. She really wanted to hug him and make him faint.

"Aren't you usually like this at your house? Why don't you dare to come to my house?"

"How can this be the same! Uncle Li will hit me with a knife later!"

"It's okay, no one saw it anyway... Stop hiding, come here!"

"..."

Lin Lu had nothing to do with her. His Adam's apple rolled twice and his heart was beating wildly. He didn't dare to make any big moves, let alone make a sound, so he could only swallow his anger and be pushed into the corner by her.

The slightest movement outside the living room, or a sudden whistle coming from the road in the distance, can make his heart suddenly rise to his throat like a frightened bird. Not to mention, this nervous and exciting feeling is really exciting.

Blame the one above.

It felt like a long time passed, but in fact it was only a moment. Li Xingruo finally let him go. As if he was full, he wiped the corners of his mouth with satisfaction and pretended to wash the vegetables.

Her courage seems to be great, but it is not that great. It is just to show the majesty of her sister, so that if he dares to bully her, she will dare too!

It felt so good to bring Lin Lu home. With her parents supporting her, she could do whatever she wanted to him, but he didn't dare to say a word.

"What did you just talk to my dad about?"

"It's nothing, just checking the household registration normally, how do I know you, what do you usually do..."

"You didn't backstab me, did you? Did you follow what I taught you?"

"said……"

Lin Lu recalled Uncle Li's expression and reaction just now, and still a little nervously checked with Li Xingruo: "Sister Xingruo, what do you think your dad's impression of me is?"

"I didn't know that this is my first time bringing a boy to your home. How do you feel about it?"

"Probably...okay?"

"Well, that's probably no problem. I don't know what my dad's impression of you is, but I know that my dad is quite nervous just like you."

"Is it true or false? I can't tell."

"Because you are more nervous than my dad. Of course you can't tell. My mom and I can tell. No matter who comes as a guest, my dad always puts his legs on the sofa when he sits on it. It's not like now.

It's like meeting with the leader, sitting straight."

After hearing what she said, Lin Lu felt a little more balanced. It would be unfair if he was the only one in the family who was nervous.

"Then what did Sister Xingruo talk to auntie outside just now?"

"What else can we talk about? Let's talk about you."

"..."

Don't say it so easily! Please be considerate of your brother who is at the center of the conversation!

"What's your impression of me?"

"Well."

Li Xingruo's delicate brows furrowed, and Lin Lu's face immediately tensed.

Then her expression instantly relaxed again, and Lin Lu was stunned for a moment before he realized that she was teasing him.

The young man became angry because of embarrassment. Why didn't he notice that Sister Xingruo was so naughty? Don't let him take the chance, otherwise she would have to beg for mercy!

"Sister Xingruo, tell me quickly!"

"Oh, there's nothing to say. Let's just leave it like that. We just met and we didn't even eat. You still want my parents to praise you so much, but I can see their current impression of you.

You're all pretty good. My mom said you look really good, but you just don't look like you're twenty."

"...Have you noticed that I am nineteen years old?"

"That's not true. My mother looked at you from side to side and thought you were about the same age as me."

"Do you think I look old?"

"It has nothing to do with your appearance. What I mean is that she thinks you are quite mature and quite reliable in terms of your words and actions. Let me tell you, my mother can read faces!"

"Huh? Is it the image that comes from the heart?"

"Yes, she used to learn from my older cousin and she is very accurate in reading people's faces. That's why you must come and have a look this time."

"Then what do I look like?"

"I say you have a clear face, will be rich all your life, have beautiful eyebrows, a stable personality, a good temperament, a straight and high nose, a sense of responsibility, and a very reliable person. Your face will be square and round, and your personality will be gentle and caring."

Hearing what Li Xingruo said, Lin Lu straightened up a bit.

"Auntie is really good at judging people."

"...if I compliment you just a few times, my tail will rise to the sky?"

Lin Lu breathed a sigh of relief. If his aunt really praised him so much, then he didn't have to worry too much about her. After all, people who can read faces are more willing to believe what they can see from their faces, and they can't tell.

Superstitious, there is a certain scientific basis for psychological analysis.

The two of them were chatting when they heard footsteps coming from outside the kitchen. They quickly fell silent and stood reservedly, busy washing vegetables in a sink.

"Auntie." Lin Lu hurriedly said hello to Chen Yingping who walked in.

"Xiao Lin, are you hungry?" Chen Yingping also asked with a friendly smile. She was holding another basin with peeled ginger cubes and other ingredients.

"Are you hungry or not? We came back after having breakfast!"

"Young people today are so tall." Chen Yingping stood beside him and compared herself. She was a little shorter than her daughter, so she had to look up at Lin Lu to look at him.

"I usually do sports, play basketball and so on, and I also go to play badminton with Xingruo on weekends." Lin Lu smiled.

"That's good. Xiaoruo is just a lazy person. She doesn't listen to my orders to exercise more and drink more water. She only knows how to play badminton. We used to play badminton outside the gate. Hey, she still dislikes me now.

Can hit!"

"Auntie, is she usually busy opening a shop?"

"There's nothing busy or not, they're all regular customers. The town is just that big. Her father and I don't have much to pursue. We just need to live a simple life. I always hoped that Xiao Ruo would find a partner. Xiao Lin, can you come today?"

I am very happy to meet and have dinner with my aunt."

Compared to Uncle Li, Aunt Chen is more talkative. After all, they are both businessmen and they are doing small business. They usually rely on their eloquent words and what they say is nice, but Lin Lu knows that he cannot relax, Xingruo

My sister also reminded him that her mother pays most attention to details.

"I'm very excited to have the opportunity to try my aunt's cooking. I've been thinking before that if Xing's cooking is so delicious, I won't be able to eat more than three bowls of it."

"Hey, Xiaolin, what you said is right. Don't be polite later. No matter whether it suits your appetite or not, you must eat enough. I still remember that when her father met Xiaoruo's grandparents, they were so strong.

This little guy didn’t even dare to eat, and later he said he was very hungry!”

As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more interesting she becomes. A sensible mother-in-law is usually nice to her son-in-law, in exchange for the son-in-law being nice to her daughter. This is probably Lin Lu’s innate advantage. As long as she doesn’t try to trick her into committing suicide, Chen Yingping

He is quite enthusiastic here.

Of course, the main thing is that we haven't reached the stage of discussing marriage yet. It's the first time we've met each other, so the important thing is to get to know each other better.

"Xiao Lin, just come to the kitchen and your aunt will come. You can go to the living room to drink tea and watch TV."

"It's okay, auntie, I don't know how to cook. When my mother usually cooks, I help in the kitchen. Seeing that auntie and Xingruo are busy working, if I take a break, I will be embarrassed to eat later.

"

"Then Auntie will give you a task. Later, the braised duck and braised goose will be simmered in a large pot of firewood. The pot in the kitchen is not big enough. Xiaoruo, go and go with Xiaolin to set up the firewood pot outside Menping and light a fire. Wait.

I'll mix the ingredients and start marinating it."

"Make a fire! I'll go! Let's go, Lin Lu, come with me to get the pot!"

Hearing that the fire was about to be lit, Li Xingruoke became excited, as if his primitive instincts had been awakened. He called Lin Lu and went to the utility room to fetch the stove and the big pot.
