On Shen Lie's birthday, Lu Taoyao booked two more concert tickets for Shen Gang and Lu Ya. In addition to an afternoon concert, it also included a candlelight dinner. She gave them the tickets two days in advance.
Shen Gang was a little hesitant and said, "Today is Shen Lie's birthday. Isn't it good if we don't give him a birthday and go out to play by ourselves?"
Lu Taoyao patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, my relationship with my brother is very good now. We often have lunch together in school. I invited him home for his birthday that day, and I will arrange the rest.
If you are at home, he will feel uncomfortable. When he gets used to it when he comes home, we can meet for dinner further!"
Lu Taoyao was worried that they wouldn't believe her, so she opened the photo album on her phone and showed them a selfie of them in the school study room.
In the photo, Lu Taoyao is smiling Biye in the front, and Shen Lie is slightly curled up at the corners of his mouth in the back. The two of them look very close.
Shen Gang immediately agreed after reading it, and even said with a sigh of relief: "Taoyao, you don't know, Xiaolie and I have a deep misunderstanding. There are indeed many shortcomings in what I do as a father.
If you can really improve the relationship between Xiaolie and me and let Xiaolie come home more often, uncle, uncle will really thank you very much!"
In just a few sentences, the image of a father who loves his children but is not good at expressing them is vividly expressed.
Lu Ya's eyes were red, and she took the initiative to say: "Then let's go ahead and make a cake for Xiaolie that morning, and then have someone deliver it to your house in the afternoon. This way we can express some of your feelings."
"Okay, okay." Shen Gang responded repeatedly.
So the arrangements for the day were decided, and Shen Lie knew nothing about them.
In a blink of an eye, it was Shen Lie's birthday, which happened to be a Saturday.
Shen Lie said that he would go to the north of the city in the morning and noon, and go home in the afternoon to celebrate his birthday with Lu Taoyao.
Lu Taoyao promised it, but she set off as soon as she got up in the morning, went back to her hometown next to City A, and picked up Shen Lie's grandmother.
Grandma Shen Lie was shocked at first when she heard that Lu Taoyao was the daughter of Shen Gang's father's later girlfriend, but when she heard that she was picking her up to celebrate Shen Lie's birthday, she immediately put on neat clothes and set off.
Along the way, Grandma Shen Lie and Lu Taoyao chatted about many topics. Later, Grandma Shen Lie fell in love with Lu Taoyao from the bottom of her heart.
After arriving at Shen's house, the cakes made by Shen Gang and Lu Ya were delivered to them.
After knowing that the cake was made by their own hands, Shen Lie's grandmother held Lu Taoyao's hand and said, "Shen Lie has suffered too much since he was a child. What I hope most is that he can really have a harmonious and happy life." family,
I can see it now. If you and your mother can help him, I will help you persuade him."
When Shen Lie came home from the north of the city in the afternoon, he was stunned when he opened the door and saw his grandmother.
He quickly looked back at the door and saw Lu Taoyao smiling and looking at him.
He couldn't help but his throat tightened. He never expected that she would remember the things he just casually told her about his childhood, and she would immediately make arrangements for him.
When grandma saw Shen Lie, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
She stepped forward and hugged Shen Lie, and said over and over again: "After so many years, I finally celebrate your birthday again, and so does your child. If you don't come back and see me more,
If Taoyao hadn't come all the way to pick me up today, I wouldn't be able to celebrate your birthday with my old arms and legs!"
Shen Lie helped his grandmother sit down, and the two chatted a lot. Lu Taoyao sat next to her and listened with a smile.
At the same time, she kept asking the slag elimination system in her mind: "Quick, quick, quick, how long does it take for Shen Lie's mother to arrive at the battlefield? I can determine the time!"
The slag removal system is even more nervous than Lu Taoyao: "I'm watching, his mother just got off the high-speed rail station in City A, and now she's taking a taxi. She'll arrive in about half an hour!"
Lu Taoyao made an estimate in her mind and felt that the time was almost up.
She suddenly stood up from the sofa, patted her head in annoyance and said, "I almost forgot about my memory. I agreed to ask my grandma to cook egg noodles for you for dinner, but I forgot to buy the noodles. You are here." Wait a minute, I’m going to the nearby supermarket to buy noodles now!”
After saying that, she stood up and walked out, hurriedly going to buy noodles.
Shen Lie also stood up immediately and said, "I'll go shopping with you."
Lu Taoyao waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, you and grandma can chat here for a while. I'll go buy something and I'll be back soon!"
Grandma Shen Lie said with a smile: "You guys go shopping together. I'll see what's in the kitchen and prepare it first. It won't be too late for us to have a good chat together during dinner."
So Shen Lie and Lu Taoyao set off to buy noodles at the supermarket they often went to.
Lu Taoyao rarely buys noodles. She didn't know which kind of noodles would be delicious. She spent a long time choosing and finally bought eight kinds of noodles.
Shen Lie said helplessly: "If you buy this kind of noodles, you will be told that there are only three of us, and even thirty people can't eat it."
"Whatever this is, just leave the unfinished noodles. After I learn how to make delicious egg noodles from my grandma today, I will cook them for you whenever I have time. I will make sure to finish cooking all these noodles." !”
Lu Taoyao smacked her chest and swore her promise, causing the corners of Shen Lie's mouth to rise crazily again.
"Okay, okay, let's go home quickly. Don't let grandma wait alone for too long." Lu Taoyao dragged Shen Lie home.
In fact, it was because Shen Lie's mother was arriving soon, and if they didn't rush back, they would not be able to hear the conversation between Shen Lie's mother and grandma.
That's right, everything tonight was deliberately arranged by Lu Taoyao.
She knew that Shen Lie's mother would come over to celebrate Shen Lie's birthday today, so she sent Shen Gang and Lu Ya away, and also brought Shen Lie's grandmother over to celebrate Shen Lie's birthday.
She bet that Shen Lie's grandmother loved Shen Lie so much because she sincerely wanted him to have a happy family.
She deliberately let Shen Lie's grandmother see how much she, her mother, and Shen Gang cared about Shen Lie.
At this time, Shen Lie's grandmother would see Shen Lie's mother, her daughter again, and she might persuade Shen Lie's mother not to be stubborn.
If she and Shen Lie "happened" to hear this conversation at the door at this time, wouldn't Shen Lie's misunderstanding of her mother Lu Ya being the mistress be resolved naturally?
The slag removal system only understood Lu Taoyao's plan two days ago. It asked: "Your plan is a bit of a gamble. What if Grandma Shen Lie doesn't mention this?"
Lu Taoyao spread her hands: "Let's just bet. How many things in this world are absolutely certain? If it doesn't succeed this time, I'll have to think of other ways next time. As long as your thinking doesn't slip, there are always more ways than difficulties." .”
In fact, Lu Taoyao's luck is quite good.
As soon as she and Shen Lie stepped out of the stairs on their floor, they heard a fierce quarrel coming from their room. It was Shen Lie's grandmother and his mother.
Grandma Shen Lie's voice was filled with weak crying: "Shuqin, don't continue to torture him like this. He is your biological son. Don't you even want to see your son live well? Just let him go..."
