It was a coincidence that Gu Ning rushed at the right time. Today is the last day of vacation, and everyone in the courtyard is at home.
Whenever something new happened in the courtyard, everyone wanted to come out and watch the excitement, especially if it was about the Li family.
The Li family has always kept a low profile, and everyone wants to see the excitement of the Li family.
Everyone wanted to see what kind of partner Li Xuewu could find.
But as soon as Gu Ning entered the courtyard, he shocked everyone onlookers.
The winter cotton hat and hair tied behind the head highlight the slender and well-proportioned neck.
Wearing a navy blue double-breasted military coat, Gu Ning, who is already tall, looks particularly elegant.
Coupled with the half-heeled black standard leather shoes, everyone can tell from Gu Ning's hat badge and leather shoes that this girl is not an ordinary girl.
Looking at Gu Ning's appearance, with fair skin, big eyes, straight nose, and pursed mouth, she looked a little nervous.
The contours of the face are soft, and Gu Ning has a round and full face, which looks dignified and majestic.
Coupled with Gu Ning's gentle and elegant temperament with a hint of orchid, Liu Yin fell in love with her after just one glance.
This time the second son has found a perfect match. He looks like a blessed person. Compared with the angular face of the eldest daughter-in-law, this girl looks much gentler than the eldest daughter-in-law.
When people in the courtyard looked at Gu Ning, they felt that this girl had a face of peace and prosperity.
Li Xuewu pulled Gu Ning, originally thinking of pulling Gu Ning's arm to introduce her to the elders of his family.
But whether Gu Ning was nervous or made a mistake, Li Xuewu pulled her and Gu Ning put her hand in Li Xuewu's.
Before the two of them could react, the Li family had already come out to greet them.
Li Xuewu squeezed Gu Ning's hand tightly and said to his family, "Dad, Mom, this is Gu Ning."
Then he took Gu Ning's hand and introduced everyone in the Li family to her one by one.
"This is my mother"
"Happy New Year, aunt, my name is Gu Ning"
"Happy New Year, hahaha"
Liu Yin looked at her daughter-in-law-to-be saying hello, and the wrinkles appeared in the corners of her eyes.
"This is my father"
"Happy New Year uncle, thank you for the gift to my dad"
"well"
Li Shun was more reserved. Although the corners of his mouth jumped with excitement, he still suppressed his laughter and agreed reservedly.
After introducing his parents, Li Xuewu introduced his eldest brother and sister-in-law, his third brother Xuecai and his younger sister Li Xue.
Following Li Xuewu's introduction, Gu Ning greeted everyone in the Li family in a generous and decent manner, as well as being graceful and elegant.
Zhao Yafang looked at the partner that her second brother-in-law had brought back. He was taller than herself, and his work was as good as hers.
But thinking about her family background and appearance, Zhao Yafang glanced at Li Xuewen unconfidently.
Although Li Xuewen is usually taciturn, he definitely has great wisdom in his eyes and a big heart in his body.
As soon as Zhao Yafang turned around, she felt something warm in her hand. When she lowered her head, she saw that Li Xuewen was holding her hand.
It turned out that Li Xuewen noticed Zhao Yafang's unnaturalness, and when he saw his second brother holding the partner's hand, Li Xuewen also held his wife's hand.
Zhao Yafang blushed and glanced at Li Xuewen. This was the first time Li Xuewen was sitting in a sedan chair and was getting close to her in the presence of so many people.
Feeling the warmth that Li Xuewen brought to her, Zhao Yafang also regained her confidence now.
Marry a chicken, follow the chicken, marry a dog, follow the dog. No matter how powerful a girl is when she marries into the Li family, she still has to call herself sister-in-law?
If you can't compare with appearance and family background, then compare with your husband. My husband is older than my second brother-in-law...
Today Gu Ning came to the house as a guest, so everyone let Gu Ning enter the house first.
As soon as he entered the house, Li Xuewu took Gu Ning to the north room.
The old lady was wearing new clothes for the New Year, holding Li Shu in her arms, and the eldest grandma was sitting on the kang.
"This is my grandma"
"Happy New Year grandma"
"Hey, good boy, hurry up and get on the kang."
Gu Ning smiled and wished Mrs. Li a happy new year, and then saw the little girl sitting in the old lady's arms.
With his white face, big eyes, slightly turned nose, and pouty mouth, you can tell from his appearance that he is not a Han Chinese.
Li Shu was wearing a colorful cotton coat and trousers, fluffy knitted socks on her feet, and a little tiger hat on her head. She looked like a doll, so cute.
"This is my grandpa"
"Happy New Year, grandpa"
"Hey, hurry up and get on the kang"
The most polite greeting from grandma and grandma to the family is "Hurry up and get on the kang."
Gu Ning was still a little cautious, standing beside the kang a little at a loss.
Li Xuewu smiled and took Gu Ning's bag and put it on the cabinet in the room, then helped Gu Ning take off his coat.
"Take off your shoes and get on the kang and talk to my grandma."
Gu Ning obediently took off her leather shoes and got on the kang with her legs spread wide.
Seeing Gu Ning take off her shoes and get on the kang, everyone in the Li family breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Xuewu has an easy-going personality and will be easy to get along with in the future.
Everyone knows about Gu Ning's family, and they are afraid that if Gu Ning dislikes this or that, then there will be trouble in the future.
Now seeing Gu Ning following Li Xuewu's words without any objection at all, this made everyone's impression of Gu Ning much better.
The old lady showed Gu Ning the position at the head of the kang, but Gu Ning did not sit down, but sat in the middle next to the old lady.
Because Li Xuewu asked her to chat with the old lady, Gu Ning obediently sat next to the old lady.
Li Shu looked at the newcomer with wide eyes and some curiosity.
In the past, Li Shu could already walk while holding on to the wall. Now it was time to blow up the camp, and the toys were banging one by one.
But now he looked at the person sitting next to him and became quiet.
Liu Yin also got on the kang amidst Zhao Yafang's joke and sat on the head of the kang next to Gu Ning. Zhao Yafang sat on the edge of the kang next to her mother-in-law.
Li Xue stood at the door and secretly looked at her "second sister-in-law" who was sitting on the kang. She was wearing a gray sweater and looked very good-looking. She was sitting on the kang with her legs spread wide. She always answered questions with a smile. She looked so good-looking.
In fact, he had seen Gu Ning the last time he went to Gu's house, but at that time he was just looking at the scenery. In addition, it was the first time he went to Gu Ning's house, so Li Xue didn't dare to take a closer look at Gu Ning.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, he was pulled by his second brother. When he saw his second brother giving him a signal, he climbed up from the kang and sat on the other side of the old lady.
According to the rules of the Northeast, girls who have not yet left the pavilion are respected, so there is no place for brothers Li Xuewen and Li Xuewu on the kang, but there is one for Li Xue.
Li Shun got on the kang and sat between Grandma and Li Xue.
The remaining three brothers, Li Xuewen, Li Xuewu and Li Xuecai, sat on the kang opposite.
Li Xuecai couldn't sit down at this moment. He was the youngest in the family, so he allowed him to pour tea for Gu Ning first, and then for everyone else. He placed the teacups in front of everyone, and then returned to the kang and sat down.
It’s not that the Li family didn’t have a sofa, there was one in the house in Li Xuewu’s backyard, but the old lady insisted on seeing Li Xuewu’s partner here.
Everyone in the family knows what the old lady means, and this is also the tradition and rule of the Li family.
The family sat in a circle around the kang. This is how the old lady came, Liu Yin did, and so did Zhao Yafang.
The old lady looked at Gu Ning, and Gu Ning responded with a warm spring smile. Like Liu Yin, the old lady also fell in love with this granddaughter-in-law.
"This is the New Year's money given by grandma, please don't take it away."
As the old lady asked Gu Ning whether it was cold on the road and asked how the family was, the old lady took out a red envelope from her pocket and put it in Gu Ning's hand.
Gu Ning didn't know what to do at this time. She didn't understand the rules of the Northeast.
When he looked at Li Xuewu, he saw Li Xuewu giving him a smile, so he accepted it with a smile and said "Thank you, grandma".
After the old lady finished giving it, the eldest grandma also took out a red envelope and handed it to Gu Ning.
"Grandpa gave this to me"
"Thank you, grandpa"
Gu Ning was very disciplined. When receiving red envelopes, she always accepted them with both hands. The old lady smiled and looked more and more satisfied.
Li Shu saw the newcomer accepting the red envelope without saying a few words, and looked at Gu Ning curiously.
"ah!"
Li Shu pointed at the red envelope in Gu Ning's hand and babbling, then stood up to get it.
The old lady smiled and slapped Li Shu on the butt, then stretched out her hand to pull Li Shu back into her pocket.
Li Shu refused, struggling to hold on to the old lady's hand, and ran towards Gu Ning waving her little hand.
Gu Ning smiled and handed the two red envelopes to Li Shu. Li Shu was stunned for a moment, then showed her white teeth and hugged the red envelopes with both hands with a smile.
Li Shu is not afraid of people and accepted the red envelope
Then he sat down in front of Gu Ning, playing with the red envelope in his hand and babbling words that no one could understand.
After the old lady had finished asking her questions, it was time for her future mother-in-law Liu Yin to ask.
At this time, if the mother-in-law does not like the prospective daughter-in-law, she will make things difficult with her words.
Of course, Liu Yin was extremely satisfied with Gu Ning, so she naturally wouldn't make things difficult for her. She only asked about the situation at home and at work.
"Xuewu said you are a surgeon?"
"yes"
Gu Ning responded with a smile, and then explained, "I just graduated last year and worked in a military hospital."
Liu Yin smiled with satisfaction and said, "Your Uncle Li is also a doctor, in a traditional Chinese medicine hospital."
"Yes, I heard"
Gu Ning looked at Li Shun with a smile and said, "Xuewu said you are a Chinese medicine practitioner, the Xinglin Sage."
“Just ordinary Chinese medicine”
Although Li Shun glared at Li Xuewu and explained to Gu Ning that he was an ordinary Chinese medicine doctor, anyone could see Li Shun's happiness from the smile on his face.
Li Xuewu did say that his father was a Chinese medicine doctor, but he didn't say anything about the Xinglin Sage. This shows that Gu Ning is not incompetent in sociability.
But now that his father was glaring at him, Li Xuewu did not dare to clarify. Not to mention hurting face, even if he said it, his father would not believe it.
Liu Yin smiled and continued to introduce, "The third child in our family is your brother Xue Cai, who is also from the Medical University. From now on, our family will have three doctors, hahaha."
At this point, Liu Yin couldn't hold back any longer and smiled proudly.
Everyone also smiled along with Liu Yin. It must be said that Gu Ning's work really satisfied Li Shun and Liu Yin.
Especially Li Shun, who has a natural affinity for people who study medicine, and looking at Gu Ning's stable character, he is even more satisfied.
Although Liu Yin and Li Shun had discussed the issue of Gu Ning's age in private, Li Shun felt that being a few years older was not a bad thing. At least he could control the unruly Li Xuewu.
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuecai, who was sitting on the kang on the other side, and said to Zhao Yafang, "I heard from Xuewu that you and your eldest brother are both university teachers?"
Zhao Yafang, who was still a little concerned about her mother-in-law's smile, now smiled, nodded and said, "We are in the same class. Your eldest brother and I also graduated last year and directly chose to stay in school to teach."
Gu Ning smiled and praised, "You and your elder brother must be very knowledgeable. I'm just not good at math, so I studied medicine."
Liu Yin also noticed the eldest daughter-in-law's concern and said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law is very good at mathematics. She is the teacher who teaches mathematics. Our sister Li Xue was tutored by your sister-in-law. She did very well in the exam this year."
Gu Ning showed an envious expression at the right time and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so awesome."
Hearing her mother-in-law and Gu Ning praise her, Zhao Yafang felt embarrassed. She smiled and waved her hands and said, "What's so great about it? Just like our father, you can only be considered great if you save lives and heal the wounded."
Seeing the three girls chatting happily, the old lady smiled and said, "Okay, okay, they are all great, hahaha, there are people in our family who can follow me."
There was a lot of chatter in the room, but the people watching the excitement outside the room were so eager to hear what was being talked about in the room.
People watching the excitement outside the window had already blocked the window. When Gu Ning saw the noise behind him, he turned around and was startled.
Upon seeing this, Li Xuewu stood up and walked out of the house with a smile.
"Hehehe, come here, come here and smoke"
The people leaning against the windows were all young boys and girls aged fourteen or fifteen. Children at this time were a little fearless, or they were called silly and bold.
But at this age, when self-esteem is at its strongest, you will hold grudges if you speak harshly.
These children were originally a little afraid of Li Xuewu. When they saw Li Xuewu coming out, they thought he was going to scold them. They were frightened and wanted to leave. They would wait until Li Xuewu entered the house to come and see them.
Just so fearless.
But I never expected that Li Xuewu was still smiling after he came out. He also took out a pack of cigarettes and greeted these half-grown men to come over and smoke.
In fact, these naughty children smoke, and their parents don't care, because there is no such thing as smoking being harmful to health at this time.
I just don’t have money to buy them, so if I want to smoke, I have to roll my own leaf cigarettes.
But it doesn’t look good when you smoke it. People at this age smoke just to imitate adults.
It doesn't look good but it still makes me smoke, so I'm very enthusiastic about the cigarettes that Li Xuewu is giving out.
"Thank you Brother Wu"
"Thank you Brother Wu"
Otherwise, they are all fearless lads. Others are afraid when they see Li Xuewu, so they just come up to him and call him Brother Wu, calling Li Xuewu a bit like a big brother in the world.
The group of boys gathered around, and Li Xuewu handed out cigarettes one by one. When he saw the stick, he also reached out to catch it, giving them a death stare.
Bangge was so frightened that he immediately retracted his hand, but when he looked up at Li Xuewu, he found that Li Xuewu was holding a small net bag with a big fat rabbit toffee wrapped in white paper.
"People under the age of fifteen are not allowed to smoke or eat sweets because their lungs have not grown yet."
BangGeng got a bag of candies and started to run away with a smile, but was stopped by Li Xuewu. He pointed at the girls who were looking at him by the window and said, "Give it to them."
"oh oh"
Bangge smiled and ran to the window to hand out candies to the little girls.
Banggeng had been wanting to do this this morning, and he was eyeing these little girls while handing out candies.
This one is too long...
This is still a yellow-haired girl, no, no, no...
Why are you still drooling over this...
Banggeng's heart sank just looking at them. They all had big noses and no one could beat them.
Li Xuewu didn't know what the chicken raising partners were thinking now, so he smiled and said to everyone, "Thank you everyone for helping me join in the fun. Let's talk for a while with my family, and then we can leave."
"Ha ha ha ha"
"I know, Brother Wu!"
As soon as Li Xuewu's quaint words came out of his mouth, these half-grown men and little girls laughed and ran away laughing.
Especially when these half-grown men are at their best.
Li Xuewu treated them like adults, gave them cigarettes, and spoke politely to them, so they felt that Li Xuewu was a decent person and that he was indeed the kind of positive person rumored to be on the street.
Therefore, no one is allowed to approach Li's house during the appointment, so as not to disturb Li Xuewu's blind date.
Banggeng watched in confusion as the little girls ran away from his eyes one by one, laughing and joking, and then thought about turning around and going back to Li Xuewu to ask what he wanted to do with her.
But just as he was about to take a step, he saw a slap coming towards him.
"I didn't see that Brother Wu just said that people want to talk, why are you going?"
Bangge was stunned for a moment, then looked at the Li family, covered his face with tears in his eyes and ran home.
Bangge's first love exploration experiment was aborted because of a big mouth.
As soon as Li Xuewu entered the room, he heard Zhao Yafang and Liu Yin saying coquettishly, "No, why are the questions you asked Xiaoning different from the questions you asked me last year?"
"The difficulty of this test question has plummeted. You are too partial! It's not obvious that you favor the second daughter-in-law. No, you have to keep asking!"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Because Zhao Yafang deliberately acted coquettishly, everyone in the room was amused, and the atmosphere was heated by Zhao Yafang's words.
Liu Yin smiled and grabbed Zhao Yafang's hand, then took Gu Ning's hand, and said, "No favoritism, no favoritism, it still hurts, hahaha."
"No, no, I won't comply. You can also ask Xiao Ning if she can cut clothes, cook, take care of children, and take charge of the family's property."
"Hahaha"
Hearing Zhao Yafang's words, Liu Yin covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "It's okay. If you don't know how to cut clothes, learn slowly. If you don't know how to cook, my mother will teach you. If you don't know how to take care of the children, my mother will help. If you don't know how to manage money, I will take care of it."
Can’t catch it”.
While talking, Liu Yin took Zhao Yafang's hand and said with a smile, "She is not the eldest daughter-in-law, and she doesn't have to live with us. It has nothing to do with us if she is poor. I don't ask her, and we don't pity her. You are the mother."
Eldest daughter-in-law, mom will ask you, ah."
"Ha ha ha ha"
"What! Mom, you are too partial!"
"Ha ha ha ha"
Listening to Zhao Yafang's coquettish words, the wrinkles at the corners of Liu Yin's eyes opened with laughter.
Gu Ning, who came to Li Xuewu's house for the first time, was also covering her mouth and laughing. This family is really very talkative. Finally, she understood why that person could chat with everyone.
The laughter of the Li Xuewu family spread to the opposite side and to the middle courtyard. Everyone knew the Li family's attitude towards this prospective daughter-in-law who came to the house for the first time.
Yes, who wouldn’t love such a standard daughter-in-law?
While we were chatting here, a few more people came into the courtyard. Old Biaozi was the first to enter the house.
, said softly to Li Xuewu who stood up, "Brother Wu, Duan Suo is here."
"Uh-huh"
Li Xuewu nodded and asked, "Are you ready?"
"Ready, I've prepared five more boxes."
He patted Lao Biaozi on the shoulder, turned to look at his family members in the room and said, "Duan Suo from Beixinqiao is here, I'll pick him up."
After giving an explanation, Li Xuewu left the room.
Here Duan Youting entered the front yard and saw Li Xuewu coming out with a smile. He hurriedly took a few steps and greeted with a smile, "Li Chu, have a good New Year."
Duan Youting, an old man, adapted quickly to the change in status, and even changed his title on the same day.
Subsequently, the attitude towards Li Xuewu also changed. You have to treat Li Xuewu how you should treat your leader.
Li Xuewu's answer to Duan Youting is also interesting.
"Hahaha, you are lucky!"
"Hahaha"
There was usually a lot of fighting, but when Duan Youting saw that Li Xuewu was still as close as usual, he knew he was at the right place this time, and shook hands with Li Xuewu with a smile.
Duan Youting pulled closer to Li Xuewu and said with a smile, "Let's celebrate the New Year. Someone may be scolding me!"
"Hahaha"
Li Xuewu smiled awkwardly, held Duan Youting's hand and said softly, "It's too dangerous. Although I know where Shen Suo's home is, I don't dare to go. I want to express my apology, but I don't dare to send anything."
"Hey hey hey"
Duan Youting raised his eyebrows and smiled evilly at Li Xuewu and said, "I didn't dare to go either. I ran away when I didn't hear from you that day."
"You are so shady!"
"To each other!"
"Hey hey hey"
"Hahaha"
The two exchanged a few words in a low voice, and then Li Xuewu led Duan Youting into the house.
Everyone in the room had finished talking. Only the old lady and grandma were sitting on the kang, while the others were already standing on the ground waiting.
When Li Xuewu saw Gu Ning standing next to his sister-in-law, he smiled and introduced to Duan Youting, "This is my grandma and grandpa."
Then he introduced Duan Youting and said, "This is my good friend and colleague who works in Beixinqiao Office."
"Old man, old lady, have a great New Year!"
"well"
Li Xuecai smiled and called Brother Duan and accepted the pastries and candies brought by Duan Youting.
Then Li Shun and Duan Youting were polite. Duan Youting sat on the kang and asked about the health of the old lady and grandma. He smiled and said a few words about his relationship with Li Xuewu, and then the old lady asked him to go to the backyard to talk.
Li Xuewu smiled and led Duan Youting out of the house and toward the backyard.
On the way, Tingting asked with a smile, "I just heard Biaozi say that you are bringing your date to meet their parents today? Is that your date in the house? Is it the one in the school last time?"
"Uh-huh"
Li Xuewu smiled and nodded and said, "We've been together for a while, and I came to visit my house."
Duan Youting is not surprised to know Lao Biaozi, because years ago, Li Xuewu not only arranged for his eldest brother and his third brother to go to the homes of relatives and friends to give gifts, but also arranged for Lao Biaozi to come forward and give gifts to colleagues and friends such as Shen Fang and Duan Youting.
"Hahaha, you are very lucky. Just look at the way your mother-in-law takes care of her children, and you will know that you are popular in her father-in-law's family."
"Hahaha, if you look good, you will be popular!"
"Crap, you mean I'm ugly?"
Duan Youting was let into the backyard by Li Xuewu. He looked at Li Xuewu's house with a smile and said, "You have really tidied up. Are you getting married?"
He said something, and then said, "That's right, you will be twenty this year, hehe, double happiness comes to your door."
Li Xuewu made tea for Duan Youting and said with a smile, "It's not decided yet. Let's have a drink then."
"that's for sure!"
Duan Youting sat on the sofa and said with a smile, "Tell me, what's going on with this case?"
"Are you worried?"
Li Xuewu placed the tea cup in front of Duan Youting and asked with a smile, "Are you afraid that the duck you got will fly away?"
"Shit, what am I worried about? The duck in your hand is fatter than the one in my hand. You are sitting firmly on the fishing platform. I feel much more at ease when I see you."
"Hold on"
Li Xuewu sat in his usual seat and explained with a smile, "There will be twists and turns, but they shouldn't be major, and they won't target the majority of us. There should be another investigation, and we should be asked to cooperate and change direction."
"So, a big shot is really involved?"
"have no idea"
Li Xuewu knew it but said he didn't know it. He lit a cigarette for Duan Youting and said, "But I saw the discipline supervisor's car entering the courtyard. I guess it's not small."
Duan Youting held his cigarette and thought for a while and asked, "Are you cooperating with them?"
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "At most, I just give them the materials. You don't need to ask. I'll wait for the news tomorrow and it should be decided on what to do."
After chatting with Duan Youting in the backyard for a while, he left Duan Youting here to eat without staying at all. He said he was rushing to his father-in-law's house, so Li Xuewu sent Duan Youting out of the house.
When he went out, Lao Biaozi brought a box of apples to Duan Youting. It was not big, eight in one box.
Duan Youting looked at it and carried it away with a smile.
This is what Li Xuewu asked Lao Biaozi to prepare before. Anyone who comes to pay New Year greetings today must take a box with them.
Although Li Xuewu saw them going there years ago, we can't let people go back empty-handed.
Generally speaking, a return gift is to leave part of the gift brought by the visitor and ask someone to take back part of it.
In order not to leave any impression on others, Li Xuewu directly used uniform return gifts and packaging.
Duan Youting also saw Li Xuewu's caution, so he accepted it.
After seeing off Duan Youting, Li Xuewu returned home. Seeing Gu Ning sitting with his sister-in-law in the south room, he smiled and said, "Follow me to the backyard, it will be quieter."
I knew someone would be coming soon. The front yard of my house was not big and it was noisy.
"It's okay, I'm fine here"
Gu Ning's voice was waxy, maybe because she was not used to it.
The Gu family is always quiet because there are few people at home.
Being exposed to so many people suddenly made Gu Ning a little tired of dealing with it.
The old lady got off the kang after hearing Li Xuewu's words. While wrapping Li Shu in quilt, she said, "Let's go, we ladies will go to the backyard to stay and chat for a while."
Li Xuewu's grandma had a strong Northeastern accent, but Gu Ning sounded very kind and let Zhao Yafang pull her to stand up and get dressed.
Seeing the old lady leaning over to hug Li Shu, Gu Ning hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Let me hug her."
After saying that, under the surprised eyes of everyone in the Li family, he walked to the kang and leaned over to hug Li Shu, who was wrapped in a small quilt.
When Gu Ning spoke, not only the old lady, but also Liu Yin and everyone in the Li family were stunned for a moment.
Seeing Gu Ning hugging Li Shu, everyone breathed a sigh of relief again.
Earlier, it seemed that Li Shu was a little afraid of Gu Ning and had been sitting quietly. The old lady took pity on her granddaughter and kept holding her in her arms and coaxing her.
Mr. and Mrs. Li Shun and the old lady discussed it last night. If Li Xuewu doesn't want to raise Li Shu, then he should keep Li Shu in front of him until he is old.
But children need their parents' care after all, so everyone in the Li family was surprised and relieved when they saw Gu Ning holding the child.
Especially the old lady, she didn't want Li Shu to leave her, but she also didn't want Li Shu to lose the care of her parents.
At this moment, he followed Gu Ning out with a smile. As he walked, he faced Li Shu who was rushing behind and said with a smile, "Hey, who is hugging our Li Shu, hahaha."
Liu Yin took Li Xue and followed the old lady to the backyard. Zhao Yafang was left in the front yard waiting for someone to make tea and water and greet the guests.
This is what Liu Yin just jokingly said an eldest daughter-in-law should do.
Before Zhao Yafang could put away the teacups on the kang, Ji Weidong came into the courtyard carrying his things with a smile.
"Haha, have a great New Year, brother!"
Li Xuewu smiled and shook hands with Ji Weidong and said, "Didn't I call you a little brother last time? Why do you call me brother?"
Ji Weidong waved his hand and said with a smile, "That was all last year. I had forgotten about it a long time ago. We still rank by age, haha."
Just after exchanging pleasantries with Ji Weidong, Li Congyun carried his things into the courtyard.
Li Xuewu asked Li Xuecai to entertain his uncle, and he said hello to Ji Weidong and went out to meet Li Congyun.
"Uncle, happy New Year!"
Li Xuewu was so embarrassed that he bowed to Li Congyun as soon as he walked out the door, and then bowed.
Li Congyun smiled and pulled Li Xuewu back and said, "Come on, we don't need to be so polite."
After several contacts with Li Xuewu, Li Congyun already knew
He knew Li Xuewu's temper, but he didn't dare to embarrass Li Xuewu.
"Is your dad at home?"
"Here, I knew you were coming, so I was waiting for you at home."
"Hahaha"
These beautiful words made Li Congyun feel comfortable. In fact, Li Congyun was still hesitant about coming.
If he doesn't come this year, he will just pretend that what happened last time was just a joke. Li Congyun didn't recognize it, and Li Xuewu didn't do anything about it.
But two years ago, Li Xuewen and his wife specially brought something to their house to pay New Year greetings, and his wife wanted to refuse it.
But Li Xuewen and his wife called her "aunt" as soon as they met, and Li Congyun's wife was stunned, thinking she was a relative from Li Congyun's hometown.
He called Li Congyun out of the study and was stunned when he saw Li Xuewen and his wife.
Then he saw an old uncle and an old aunt on Zhao Yafang's left calling them affectionately, and Li Congyun also collected the things.
When sending Zhao Yafang and the two away, Li Congyun said with emotion, thanks to Zhao Yafang being Li Xuewen's daughter-in-law.
After accepting Li Xuewen's gift, Li Congyun had to come even if he didn't come. This family was recognized as a relative, and the relationship became more and more solid.
"Happy New Year, brother!"
"Hey, Cong Yun is here, come in quickly."
When Li Congyun saw Li Shun coming out of the house, he quickly said hello and wished him happy New Year. Li Shun also smiled and welcomed Li Congyun into the house.
One after another, Xu Ning, Han Yating and others came to pay New Year's greetings.
Ding Wanqiu and his nephew Zhou Changli also came to pay New Year's greetings, and specially thanked Li Xuewu for taking care of his nephew.
The two of them didn't stay long. They sat for a while and then left. The guests sitting in Li's house were really scary.
Yu Li, Qin Huairu, and He Yuyu took advantage of the visitor's free time to carry two bottles of wine and some gifts to Li Shun. The three of them went to the house for a while and then left.
Because they were all neighbors in the courtyard, Li Shun didn't want to accept them, but Yu Li and others insisted, saying they were grateful to Li Xuewu for helping, so Li Shun accepted them.
Lao Biaozi smiled and gave apples to the three families, but Sha Zhu said no, because Sha Zhu asked Yu Yu to visit Li Shun, and he also thanked Li Xuewu for his constant help.
But Lao Biaozi forced the apples to go, saying that there were plenty of preparations.
Ji Weidong was first taken by Li Xuecai to the backyard to see the old lady. When he came back, he found an opportunity to wink at Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu glared at him angrily.
In the backyard, Ji Weidong met the girl he had met in the hospital before, the girl with a powerful mother.
Li Xuewu's troublesome thing and Ji Weidong's were all over it, so when he saw that Gu Ning was the one brought by Li Xuewu, he was very excited to see Li Xuewu.
Li Congyun was led by Li Xuewen to the backyard and chatted with the old lady for a while. Because he recognized the old lady, the old lady was also familiar with Li Congyun.
After ten o'clock, Zheng Xicai and Zheng Xiaoyan, together with their two children, entered the courtyard. When they arrived at Li's house, they saw many people already sitting in the house.
Li Xuewu smiled and toasted cigarettes to Zheng Xicai and Zheng Xiaoya, introduced the people in the room to them, and introduced the two more people.
Zheng Xicai's wife and Zheng Xiaoyan took their children to the backyard with Zhao Yafang.
There were not many or few people staying to eat at noon. The male guests all set the table on the big Kang in the back room, while the female guests set a table directly in the backyard.
With Li Xuewu and Lao Biaozi around, Ji Weidong and Li Congyun were brought down. It was Xu Ning and Li Xuecai who drove Ji Weidong home in Li Xuewu's car. This was considered revenge for Li Xuecai.
Li Congyun was picked up by the driver, who was well prepared. It was like this last time he came here, carrying him home.
Zheng Xicai and Zheng Xiaoyan walked out of the courtyard because Li Xuewu didn't want to trick them and was afraid that his godmother would scold him later.
When Zheng Xicai was about to walk out of the alley, he turned back and glanced at Li Xuewu's west courtyard.
When Zheng Xiaoyan saw her eldest brother looking at Li Xuewu's house, she smiled and asked, "You didn't drink too much, did you?"
Zheng Xicai shook his head and said, "It's less than a pound, it's okay."
He replied to his sister and continued to ask, "What did I tell you when I came out?"
"Hi, I just introduced someone and said that he would come to Jinmen to meet me later and wanted to buy some parts."
Zheng Xicai nodded and said, "I have a lot of friends, but I do have a way of talking and doing things."
Zheng Xiaoya smiled and asked, "Who did you meet?"
"Um"
Zheng Xicai nodded and said, "The one wearing glasses and being helped out is the vice president of Huaqing. His name is uncle."
"ah?"
Just when Zheng Xiaoya was surprised, Zheng Xicai continued, "Not to mention his colleagues, there are actually people from the investigation department, and they seem to be married."
"Uh-huh"
Zheng Xiaoyan's husband nodded and said, "It seems to be his third brother."
“It’s amazing”
Zheng Xiaoyan thought for a while and said, "When I went to the backyard to chat, I saw Li Xuewu's partner. She must be the girl from the family that mom mentioned. You can tell by her temperament and dress."
Zheng Xicai glanced in the direction of Li's house again before walking home thoughtfully.
Today Li Xuewu's circle of friends really taught Zheng Xicai a lesson, especially in Li Xuewu's way of dealing with people.
Even my sister who said she wanted to eat rabbits yesterday was given six rabbits by Li Xuewu when she came out, saying that they were brought by guests today and the family would not eat them.
Now Zheng Xicai finally knew why his father spent so much time analyzing Li Xuewu for him.
Li Xuewu was really busy today and hit the back of his head. Thanks to the help of Sha Zhu and Lao Biaozi, he was able to entertain everyone.
After returning to the backyard, as soon as they entered the house, they saw the old lady and Gu Ning sitting on the kang talking. Liu Yin and Zhao Yafang had gone home to clean up the house.
In addition, we have to take care of Li Xuewen, Li Xuecai and Li Shun.
Today Li Congyun and Ji Weidong fell, and the Li family lost three.
Especially the little boy Li Xuecai, who was pulled by Ji Weidong and drank half a catty and was finished.
"You must have drunk too much. Take a break."
The old lady waved to Li Xuewu to get on the kang and rest for a while.
Li Xuewu smiled and replied, "I didn't drink much, it was all them."
After getting on the kang, he sat next to Gu Ning. When he saw the eldest daughter sitting quietly in Gu Ning's arms, she smiled and asked, "Are you tired?"
"without"
Gu Ning squeezed Li Shu's little hand and replied with a smile.
Li Xuewu put his face in front of Li Shu and said with a smile, "Come here, daddy."
Li Shu obediently pushed Li Xuewu away with a slap, and hid in Gu Ning's arms with her little nose raised.
"Hehehe"
The old lady looked at this scene with a smile and said, "I think you smell of alcohol."
Li Xuewu deliberately said with dissatisfaction, "Why weren't you annoyed before?"
He stretched out his hand to tease Li Shu, but Li Shu waved his little hand and dodged it. When he got anxious, he just stared with big eyes and said "Ah!"
Gu Ning hugged the doll in her arms, smiled and pinched Li Shu's little face.
Li Shu smiled at Gu Ning with dignity.
"Hey! You little traitor!"
This made Li Xuewu even more jealous. He stretched out his hand to hug Li Shu, which made Li Shu reach out to scratch Li Xuewu.
"Hahaha"
Li Xuewu teased his daughter and then lay down by the kang. He followed the old lady and talked about entertaining guests in the front yard.
The old lady didn't like the crowds and excitement, nor did she want Li Xuewu to receive many gifts, but she liked to see Li Xuewu have many friends and win the hearts of the people.
Li Xuewu fell asleep while talking. The old lady brought a small quilt, and Gu Ning took it with a blush and covered Li Xuewu with the quilt.
Seeing that her father was about to sleep, Li Shu also stood up unsteadily, holding her own little pillow in her hand and placing it next to Li Xuewu. Then she lay down awkwardly, moving her body left and right to get into Li Xuewu's bed.
Li Shu saves her worries and is loved by the old lady the most.
In addition to being a little more lively, it is easy to carry around at ordinary times. When I feel sleepy, I find my own pillow and quilt to sleep on.
Seeing the older one and the younger one lying on the kang, the older one snoring and the younger one also breathing with his mouth open, Gu Ning felt that Li Xuewu also had a cute side.
The old lady saw the look in Gu Ning's eyes and said with a smile, "Although he has the character of a demon king, he is the most soft-hearted, otherwise he would not be able to bring Li Shu back."
Gu Ning looked at Li Xuewu who was snoring and sleeping soundly, smiled and nodded.
"Li Shu is also a good child. She is easy to coax and well-behaved. She is neither noisy nor fussy."
Gu Ning knew what the old lady meant and smiled without saying anything. He just reached out and touched Li Shu's little hand.
