"Hello, Auntie, I'm really sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
Yao Xuewei saluted Li's mother, Tan Ruoxi, and then handed over the box she was holding.
Out of politeness, Tan Ruoxi did not refuse, but instead took it with both hands in a humble manner.
"As long as people come, why bother spending money."
"Auntie, small gifts are not respectful."
Tan Ruoxi and Yao Xuewei exchanged greetings, and then walked shoulder to shoulder to the second floor.
At this moment, Li Xiangqian was alone, and he seemed a bit like an unnecessary transparent person.
He scratched his head and had no choice but to follow him upstairs.
When we arrived at the second floor and opened the door, we were greeted by the aroma of rice.
"Well, Auntie, what delicious food did you cook? Why does it taste so good?"
"It's nothing, just ordinary home-cooked food. Sit down quickly and let's eat together."
To be honest, the meal prepared by Tan Ruoxi today is indeed quite sumptuous.
Although there are not many meat dishes, they are very clever and the methods are very particular. There are even some dishes that Yao Xuewei has hardly seen before.
The three of them sat down, Li Xiangqian deliberately sandwiched them in the middle, and started eating directly.
To be honest, Yao Xuewei left a good impression on Li's mother, Tan Ruoxi. She has a beautiful face, a good figure, elegant manners and extraordinary conversation. She is really not a girl trained by ordinary people.
What Tan Ruoxi doesn't quite understand is why such a decent girl would bite her son?
Thinking of this, Tan Ruoxi couldn't help but glance at her son Li Qianqian's lower lip.
Although after Yao Xuewei's secret medicine treatment, the bitten area on Li Xiangqian's lower lip has improved a lot, but if you look carefully, you can still see two or three tooth marks.
Although Tan Ruoxi felt a little distressed, she did not ask in front of Li Xiangqian and Yao Xuewei.
As my godson Ma Zhifei said this morning, maybe Yao Xuewei loves Li Xiangqian too much and wants to deliberately leave a scar on Li Xiangqian's mouth so that whenever Li Xiangqian kisses, he will think of her first.
Although Tan Ruoxi completely scoffed at the speculation about her godson Ma Zhifei, she had no intention of pursuing it further and just assumed that Yao Xuewei bit her accidentally.
Who can understand what happens to young people?
When the three of them were eating, Yao Xuewei saw that Li's mother Tan Ruoxi was very elegant, so she took the initiative to ask: "Auntie, your accent doesn't sound like Heyang. Where is your hometown?"
Faced with Yao Xuewei's questioning, Tan Ruoxi did not hide anything.
"I am from southern Yunnan."
Although Yao Xuewei was a little surprised to hear that Tan Ruoxi came from southern Yunnan, she still kept a smile and said: "Southern Yunnan is a good place. My father stayed there when he was young. He said that the scenery there is very nice and the folk customs are also very good.
Simplicity.”
For some reason, Tan Ruoxi seemed reluctant to talk more about things in southern Yunnan.
So what Yao Xuewei said, she just smiled and nodded, and then asked Yao Xuewei to eat more vegetables.
Seeing this, Yao Xuewei didn't talk any more.
After the three of them finished eating, Yao Xuewei looked at Tan Ruoxi.
"Aunt, you are really elegant. I brought you a pair of jade earrings this time. You can try them on. If they don't fit or you don't like them, I can change them right away."
As Yao Xuewei spoke, she glanced at Li Qianqian.
Li Xiangqian understood this and immediately stood up to take the box that Yao Xuewei had brought.
At this moment, Li Xiangqian no longer had the calm and domineering attitude he had when fighting the enemy, but became more and more like Yao Xuewei's little follower.
Sure enough, the little follower of the Li family took the box over and opened it in front of his mother and Yao Xuewei. He saw that inside the box was a pair of plum blossom-shaped earrings.
Each earring is made from six small egg noodles, arranged in a circle to form a plum blossom shape, and is surrounded by a ring of gold inlay.
In this way, this pair of earrings uses twelve small egg noodles.
Look carefully at each of these small egg noodles. They are all exactly the same color, pure sunny green, and the planting water looks good.
This gift seems a little too expensive.
Li's mother, Tan Ruoxi, originally planned to refuse as she was not rewarded for no merit.
But Yao Xuewei had already noticed it in advance.
"Auntie, these plum blossom-shaped earrings were polished and made by myself. They were not purchased. They are just some of Weiwei's thoughts. If you refuse, I will feel very uncomfortable."
As Yao Xuewei spoke, she picked up the earrings from the box like a spoiled child, and then put them on directly for Mother Li.
A good horse deserves a good saddle.
Beautiful women need to dress up.
Tan Ruoxi has an excellent temperament and is radiant. Wearing such a pair of plum blossom-shaped earrings makes her look much younger instantly.
At this moment, looking at herself in the mirror, Li's mother Tan Ruoxi's eyes were a little red.
She also thought that more than 20 years ago, when she and Li Qianqian's father were riding horses in southern Yunnan, they were by a small river. Li Qingshan also gave her such beautiful and eye-catching earrings.
It was just that there was a fire that year, and when she tried to escape while pregnant, she also lost the pair of earrings.
Tan Ruoxi's eyes turned red unconsciously when she looked at this pair of plum blossom-shaped earrings.
At this moment, Li Qianqian was sitting on a stool in the living room, watching Yao Xuewei and his mother being so intimate, and he really couldn't say anything at all.
This Yao Xuewei was quite domineering in front of him, and she was also quite arrogant at times.
Why has her mother become so gentle?
She also said Weiwei, by the way, this Weiwei should be her nickname.
It's a pretty poetic and artistic nickname.
Yao Xuewei stayed at Li Xiangqian's house for a long time, and it was not until three o'clock in the afternoon that she said goodbye to Li's mother, Tan Ruoxi.
Tan Ruoxi also sent Yao Xuewei directly to the first floor, and asked her son to send Yao Xuewei home and then come back. She had something to say.
Li Xiangqian had no choice but to follow his mother's wishes and send Yao Xuewei back to the car. He originally wanted to get in the car and take Yao Xuewei back to the Jade Sculpture Museum.
But Yao Xuewei refused.
Because Li's mother looked at her son just now, she had something to say, so Yao Xuewei stopped letting Li Xiangqian see her off. Moreover, Li Xiangqian didn't have a car. When he got to the Linhai Realm Jade Sculpture Museum, he had to take a taxi back, which was very inconvenient.
So Yao Xuewei and Li Qianqian said hello, glanced at Li Qianqian a few more times, and then drove away from Li Qianqian's sight with some reluctance.
Li Xiangqian didn't waste any time and immediately turned around and went home.
When he returned upstairs, his mother Tan Ruoxi was sitting on the sofa, holding a photo of Li Xiangqian's father in her hand.
It was a picture of a very handsome man riding a tall horse.
"mom!"
Li Xiangqian's voice immediately brought Tan Ruoxi out of her memories.
Then Tan Ruoxi put away the photo with red eyes.
"Pingping, come over and sit down."
"good!"
When Li Qianqian sat in front of her, Tan Ruoxi suddenly stretched out her hand and carefully touched her son's face, and along the way touched the bite mark on her son's lower lip where Yao Xuewei bit her.
"Does it still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt!"
"This was Yao Xuewei's bite, right?"
"Um!"
Tan Ruoxi did not ask for the specific reason, and just assumed that Yao Xuewei was too excited, or as Ma Zhifei said, she wanted her son to remember her as soon as he kissed her.
Now Tan Ruoxi suddenly showed a rare solemn expression.
It looked like Li Xiangqian was a little hairy.
"Son, love between a man and a woman, and having children are the continuation of human life. As someone who has been through this, Mom can see that this girl Yao really likes you."
"Mom, no."
"I can see that this girl is quite good, but mom also knows Xiaonan's feelings for you. As a man, he is kind-hearted and handsome, and it is human nature to be favored and liked by women."
"But, as a man, you must be responsible for the woman who likes you. Although our Li family has declined, the etiquette, rules and morals of tutoring are still there. You can't have two different things, let alone play with any girl's feelings. The Li family's
