It rained heavily in the middle of the night, and it was hot and humid. Lin Mai had been blowing the fan all night, and when he woke up in the morning, he had a cough and a stuffy nose.
She felt extremely surprised.
She is in good health and rarely sneezes all year round.
It was such a hot summer, and she actually caught a cold!
However, she didn't take it seriously and continued to make breakfast when she got up.
The unshaven Fang Zhuoyue came to her like a wandering ghost and said: "Sister-in-law, seeing that I am in a bad mood, can you make some delicious breakfast in the morning to heal my emotional pain?
"
Ever since he told Grandma Fang and the others that he liked Tao Zhiyun, he completely let himself go and didn't shy away from the fact that he liked Tao Zhiyun.
He couldn't figure it out now. Why was he so afraid of others knowing that he liked Tao Zhiyun? He also felt that liking her was full of guilt. What a fool!
If he had understood his sincerity from the beginning and pursued Tao Zhiyun, maybe the two of them would have been together long ago.
Now, let's let that guy Liu Yongjiang get in first.
Lin Mai originally planned to simply cook a pot of shredded pork noodles in the morning.
Seeing that Fang Zhuozhou was pitiful, he made beef meatball soup and rice rolls instead.
Fang Zhuoran went into the kitchen and asked her if she wanted to invite the Bai family to have breakfast at home.
Lin Mai shook his head: "No."
When they came back from Wangjiacun last night, Lin Mai didn't care about their dinner, sent them to the guest house and came back.
If Mama Bai treats her like that, then she should treat her the same.
Lin Mai coughed twice while speaking, and Fang Zhuoran asked nervously: "Do you have a cold?"
Lin Mai nodded: "It's okay, just drink a few more glasses of hot water."
Fang Zhuoran didn't listen to her. He rode his bicycle to the hospital and came back with cold medicine. He felt relieved after watching her take it.
Breakfast was ready, and the family sat at the dining table to eat.
Whether it's beef meatballs or rice rolls, Lin Mai doesn't make them often, mainly because these two snacks take too much time to make.
Take the beef balls made by Lin Mai, for example. They are not ordinary beef balls, but authentic Chaoshan beef balls.
This kind of beef meatballs is much more time-consuming and labor-intensive to make than pork meatballs.
You have to take the fresh beef shank meat ingredients, remove the tendons and cut them into pieces. Place them on a large chopping board and use a special square hammer to hammer the beef shank up and down into a meat sauce.
Then add various seasonings and continue hammering for another 15 minutes...
After a whole set of handwork, the beef balls made can jump up high when thrown on the ground. They are chewy and crispy in the mouth and taste great.
Although Linmai's Chaoshan beef balls are not made strictly according to the recipe of Chaoshan beef balls, the taste is quite good.
The whole family ate without raising their heads.
Fang Zhuoyue, in particular, looked happy.
Linmai's beef balls are chewy, juicy, and full of pure meaty texture. One bite is so good that you won't be satisfied!
Take a bite of beef balls and drink a mouthful of fresh soup, and the taste will be as high as heaven.
Fang Zhuoran glanced at him: "Did your mood improve after eating the beef balls made by your sister-in-law?"
When Fang Zhuoyue heard this, his face turned bitter again.
While eating delicious food, I almost forgot who Tao Zhiyun was, but my eldest brother insisted on mentioning it.
Lin Mai's family was all enjoying delicious breakfast, but Bai's mother was a little angry.
She glanced down at the watch on her wrist. It was almost eight o'clock, and Fang Zhuoran hadn't come to pick them up for breakfast at his house.
What Mama Bai was curious about was not the breakfast, but the respect.
She was a little unhappy and said: "It's already past this time and Xiaofang hasn't come to pick us up for breakfast yet. This is too rude. I don't know what Maizi is thinking."
Although the person who didn't come to pick them up for breakfast was Fang Zhuoran, Bai's mother would only blame Lin Mai.
Because Fang Zhuoran gave birth to Lin Mai's fiancé, whether he would come to pick them up for breakfast or not depended entirely on Lin Mai.
Otherwise, Fang Zhuoran would know which green onions they are! Mama Bai can still carry this clearly.
Bai Shuang said to Mama Bai's chest: "Mom, please don't be angry. We have not confirmed our relationship with Maizi.
Even if the relationship was confirmed, she didn't have any feelings for us, so naturally she wouldn't take us to heart, so she didn't remember to ask Professor Fang to invite us to their house for breakfast.
Let’s not worry about the breakfast and find a snack bar to have breakfast by ourselves.”
Mother Bai nodded gloomily.
At 8:30, Lin Mai didn't drive to pick them up, so the Bai family had no choice but to come to the hospital under the scorching sun.
Lin Mai was already waiting in the outpatient hall.
Mama Bai had been doing some mental construction for herself on the road, and she must not scold Lin Mai when she saw her.
She had not grown up in front of him and had no feelings for them. She could not have such high demands on him.
But when I saw Lin Maiqing looking so refreshed and refreshed, and then I saw how their whole family was covered in sweat from the sun, and their skin was shiny, it was so embarrassing, and I felt bad.
Especially Bai Shuang, who was in poor health and wilted like a flower in the sun, almost felt distressed to death.
Therefore, I couldn't help criticizing Lin Mai sincerely: "Maizi, we came to Jiangcheng from the capital to find you.
No matter your dad and I, your brothers, sisters, or Shuang'er, they are not used to the weather in Jiangcheng.
How could you not drive to pick us up in such a hot weather? Look at how frosty the sun is."
Bai Shuang held Bai's mother's arm and said, "It doesn't matter to me. Mom, don't be angry with Maizi."
Lin Mai glanced at Bai Shuang and asked Bai's mother: "Have you really never thought about why I didn't invite you to my house for breakfast in the morning or why I didn't drive to pick you up at the hospital?"
Mother Bai's face turned ugly: "What other reason could there be? Of course it's because you don't get close to us and don't want to entertain us!"
Lin Mai nodded: "You're right, I don't want to get close to you, and I don't want to entertain you.
But I don’t want to get close to you or entertain you. It’s all forced.
If I get close to you and entertain you, your precious Bai Shuang will definitely be unhappy, and she might even use some tricks to plot against me.
I am already afraid of being plotted by her. It would be better to have one less thing than one more thing.
I would rather have you blame me for not being close to you and not treating you well, than I would like to be plotted by her again,"
Mother Bai was speechless.
Bai Shuang started crying all of a sudden and looked at Mama Bai pitifully: "Mom, Maizi won't forgive me."
Lin Mai smiled half-heartedly: "Give me a reason to forgive you."
Bai Shuang was dumbfounded. She couldn't find any reason for Lin Mai to forgive her.
Lin Mai sneered: "You can't even find a reason for me to forgive you, and you still ask me to forgive you. Your face is really thicker than pigskin!"
Bai Xia couldn't help laughing out loud after hearing this, it was a very exaggerated one.
Bai Shuang felt ashamed and angry when she heard his laughter.
Lin Mai said expressionlessly: "Okay, let's get Bai Shuang's test results."
After getting all the test results, Father Bai and Mother Bai both looked unhappy.
Lin Mai had guessed the result a long time ago. She didn't even look at any of the test sheets. She stood calmly and looked at Father Bai and Mother Bai.
Bai Xia and Bai Lu looked at their parents suspiciously, took the thick stack of test sheets and read the results.
After reading it, Bai Lu had a look of disbelief on his face.
Bai Xia chuckled softly, with a look of innocence on her face, and said to Bai's mother:
"I have told my mother before that Bai Shuang is not sick, but she just doesn't like me and deliberately puts the blame on me, so she pretends to be sick, saying that I made her angry and gave her angina pectoris.
My mother didn't believe it, and accused me of evading responsibility and refusing to admit my mistakes.
Now that there are so many test results showing that Bai Shuang is not sick, mom can no longer believe what I said before."
After listening to Bai Xia's words, Lin Mai understood why Bai Xia always criticized Bai Shuang. It turned out that he was also the one who was plotted by Bai Shuang.
Mother Bai turned around and asked Bai Shuang in deep shock: "Shuang'er, have you really been pretending to be sick to deceive us?"
Bai Shuang shook her head desperately: "I didn't, Mom, I didn't!"
She pointed at Lin Mai and said: "Mai Zi's fiancé is a professor. It would be easy for him to tamper with the test sheet!
Otherwise, Maizi would not even look at the test form as if he already knew the test results!"
Mother Bai immediately looked at Lin Mai suspiciously.
Lin Mai smiled at Bai Shuang with a sweet smile: "The evidence is conclusive, and you still work hard to make a comeback. You are indeed the daughter of Lin Jianguo and Yao Cuihua, you are amazing!
Since you are worried that these test results have been tampered with by my fiancé, do you dare to change our hospital for testing?"
