415. Chapter 411 New Chapter 0385 Just crush the Marble Mountains
"Did anything happen at home during my absence?"
Sitting at the dinner table, Li Mengnan took big mouthfuls of rice while asking Minnie about the recent situation at home.
I have to say that the food at home is delicious. The Japanese cuisine is exquisite, but the taste is too bland.
According to the story in the play, he had eaten so much in the past month that the bird almost disappeared from his mouth.
"I've been staying at home with my mom this month. I basically cook and clean the house every day. I occasionally go shopping with my mom. What can I do?"
There was a hint of complaint in Minnie's tone.
Well, right after Bao'er left and his mother Xiao Hui needed someone to be with her, Li Mengnan chose to leave home at this time to "relax".
And if you really wanted to relax, then you actually went to Japan for no reason and hooked up with an unknown Japanese woman. Who wouldn't be angry?
Li Mengnan knew that he was in the wrong, so he smiled in embarrassment and took the initiative to give Minnie a chopstick of food as an apology.
Seeing that Li Mengnan had a better attitude in admitting his mistake, Minnie calmed down a little, rolled her eyes at him and said, "Of course, Mom and I have nothing to do, but you do have a lot to do."
"my business?"
"Well, about half a year ago, a middle-aged man named Wei Mao called you. I told him that you were out hiking and couldn't be contacted. I asked him what happened, but he just said mysteriously that he knew.
You'll know if he's looking for you... Tsk, I don't even bother to ask."
"Oh, it turns out it's him... It's okay. You don't need to pay attention to him. He is a middle-aged homebody with pitifully low emotional intelligence. He is still single."
He and Wei Mao had asked for a month's bereavement leave from the HX Research Institute. They calculated the time and should have canceled the leave long ago. The other party took the initiative to call so eagerly. It was probably because something urgent had happened.
"By the way, Xiaonan, there's also an email from you."
Xiao Hui seemed to have remembered something, put down her bowls and chopsticks, stood up and walked into the study, pulled out an unopened EMS email from the bookshelf and handed it to Li Mengnan.
This email is a bit strange. There is only the recipient but no sender. The contents inside feel like paper when pinched and are quite thick.
Li Mengnan tore it open and found that inside was a real estate certificate. The address on it was the duplex building where he now rented.
The name of the owner of the house above is exactly his.
The person who can complete the entire house transfer registration without the buyer's presence must have considerable energy in Sanshan City.
The first thing Li Mengnan thought of was the Feng Shui master Huang Youyu. After all, the only person who had dealt with him recently and met the above conditions was this old man.
However, the favors owed by the Qimen monks are usually not repaid with mundane things such as money. That would appear too insincere. The only reasonable explanation is that this house is actually a return gift from the Xia family behind Huang Youyu's back.
It seems that the Xia family really put a lot of thought into showing their kindness to him.
If he were to give money directly, even if it was millions or tens of millions, he might not be willing to have anything to do with the other party again, and this house represented a very special meaning, so he really couldn't refuse this real estate certificate.
Forget it, I didn't plan to promise anything to the other party anyway, so I just thought of selling Huang Youyu to save face, so as not to return it unchanged, and the old man couldn't hold back his face in front of the Xia family.
Of course, this cannot be said about this matter with my mother.
Seeing Xiao Hui keep looking at him, Li Mengnan smiled and handed her the real estate certificate in his hand, saying: "Nothing, it's just the real estate certificate for this house. I have already asked someone to handle the transfer procedures."
"Did you buy it? Where did you get the money?"
Xiao Hui was surprised. Such a big house was located in a prosperous area near the city center. It cost less than two to three million to buy it.
Minnie had actually vaguely guessed that Li Mengnan's way of making money might be a little special. After all, no one knew Li Mengnan's weird skills better than she did. She quickly helped Li Mengnan cover up and said coquettishly: "Mom, I'm an adult now.
He should have a sense of what he can and cannot do, don't you always have to take care of everything like a child, okay?"
"Okay, okay, my control is too lenient... Well, in this family now, with Xiaonan as the master and Xiaoni as the master, there will be nothing left for me, an old woman, to do in the future."
"Mom, what are you talking about? Who is talking to him about the outside world and the inside?"
Minnie stamped her feet shyly. These words are usually used to describe young couples. It is understandable that Mom is happy, but it is a bit too arrogant.
"Okay, mom said the wrong thing."
Only when you have a house that is completely your own will you feel like home.
This real estate certificate was completely delivered to Xiao Hui's heart. It was so precious that she wrapped it three times inside and three outside in plastic bags, and then carefully stuffed it into the bottom layer of the big wardrobe, and pressed it underneath with a thick winter quilt.
Li Mengnan couldn't laugh or cry when he saw it, and said: "Mom, why don't you just put a Five Elements Mountain on it? It's just a real estate certificate, not a monkey. What do you think? Are you afraid that it will somersault thousands of miles away?"
"Mom knows that this thing can't be thrown away, but she just feels so at ease." After putting down the real estate certificate, Xiao Hui sat back at the table with a satisfied smile, suddenly sighed, and said sadly: "If Bao'er still returns
It's great, she likes this home the most. She told me before that she will earn a lot of money when she grows up, and then buy this house, and our family will live together forever and never be separated...
…”
"Mom, didn't you agree not to mention the past?"
Minnie couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
In the past, my mother was busy with work and my father was outside all day long. Xiao Baoer was almost brought up by her. She said she was a younger sister, but in fact she was almost half a daughter.
When Baoer passed away, Minnie felt no less sad than her mother Xiao Hui.
"Um...can you please listen to what I have to say before you cry?"
Li Mengnan originally planned to wait until Xiao Baoer at least had a human form before giving Xiao Hui and Minnie a surprise, but seeing the two of them crying so sadly, he suddenly couldn't bear it.
Forget it, mother and Minnie will have to know about this sooner or later anyway, so it’s better to prepare them mentally in advance.
"Xiaonan, what do you want to say?"
Xiao Hui also felt that it was not good-looking to cry at the wedding banquet for her son, so she wiped away her tears with her fingers and forced a smile to Li Mengnan.
"Uh, what should I say?"
Although Li Mengnan decided to tell the truth to his family, when the matter came to a close, he didn't know where to start.
After all, resurrection from the dead is so subversive of ordinary people's worldviews that it doesn't matter whether they can understand it or not. What matters is whether they can accept Xiao Baoer, who has long been "dead" biologically.
