At five o'clock in the evening, Xiao Yihe and Huo Lan returned to Yuejiang Community with Xiaogua, who had been playing wildly for a day. At this time, Xiaogua had already fallen asleep in Xiao Yihe's arms from exhaustion.
Back at the apartment, Xiao Yihe carried Xiao Gua back to the bedroom, and then started cooking. Huo Lan originally wanted to help, but Xiao Yihe kicked him out of the kitchen.
This day was tiring and happy for Xiao Yihe. It seemed like this was the happiest day for him in the past four years, and he laughed from morning till night.
After eating, Xiao Gua finally woke up, and Xiao Yihe mentioned asking Huo Lan and the others to move in with him. Huo Lan couldn't make up her mind for a while, after all, she still had to follow her mother's advice.
Mrs. Huo is a smart person. In fact, Xiao Yihe didn't speak, so she planned to have a good chat with her daughter.
In Mrs. Huo's view, although her daughter got back together with Xiao Yihe yesterday, this kind of reconciliation is different from the breakup and reconciliation of young lovers. After all, there is a son between them, so Mrs. Huo also knows that they are like this.
The situation is not suitable for living separately.
"Lan Lan, please promise Yi He. Xiao Gua is so old. Is it possible that you two have to live separately? Who will Xiao Gua live with? Listen to Yi He, do you want to go back to see him in a while?
Parents, maybe Mom is not suitable to say such things, but considering Xiaogua's problem, I think you should get your marriage certificate as soon as possible."
When Xiao Yihe heard this, he immediately looked at Mrs. Huo with emotion. He originally thought that this matter would have to wait for a while, but now that his mother-in-law had spoken, Huo Lan could not agree.
"Aunt, thank you. Don't worry. I, Xiao Yihe, promise you that I will take good care of Xiaolan and Xiaogua, and you. I think you and Xiaolan and the others will move in with me, so that you can also
I can help take care of Xiaogua."
Xiao Yihe took advantage of the situation and said, fearing that Mrs. Huo would regret it again.
After hearing Xiao Yihe's words, Mrs. Huo was still very satisfied. She originally thought that the president of a dignified group and the son of a wealthy family would always be a little difficult to approach, with inherent pride and alienation. But after contacting him in the past two days, this seemingly indifferent person
The man has a hot heart, and his feelings for his daughter and grandson are real. This kind of sincerity can never be acted out.
However, when she heard that Xiao Yihe asked her to move there, Mrs. Huo was still a little hesitant. She knew that Xiao Yihe meant well, but she also knew that distance creates beauty, so she shook her head.
"I'll forget it. Although I've lived here for a short time, this community is quiet and the neighbors are very easy to get along with. I suddenly moved to a new environment and I have to adapt again. And in a place like yours, I guess that among the neighbors
It’s not as friendly as here.”
Mrs. Huo has also been a rich wife. How could she not know the warmth and warmth of people in the so-called upper class society? In contrast, she prefers the harmony between neighbors here.
There are no interests, no calculations, and no comparison. Just three or five people sitting together and chatting, gossiping, and even making appointments to dance in the square in the evening. This kind of life is the best for a person who is almost sixty years old.
It's comfortable.
Hearing her mother's refusal, Huo Lan couldn't accept it. Over the years, she was used to taking her mother with her, and because of her mother's health, Huo Lan didn't feel comfortable letting her live alone.
"Mom, I will live wherever you live. If you want to stay here, then I will live here with you and let you live here alone. Do you think I can rest assured?"
"Silly boy, what's the point of worrying about this? Didn't you say before that you would find an aunt for me to help take care of the housework, so that I wouldn't be alone? Don't worry, Mom has thought about it now and won't do it again.
It's like before. Besides, it's not like we're not in the same city. How far away can Yihe's place be? You can bring Xiaogua over to see me on the weekends, or I can occasionally go to your place to stay for a few days.
."
"But mom..."
Huo Lan still refused. Her mother was not in good health. Even if she asked someone to take care of her, it would not be as meticulous as doing it herself.
"Okay, let mom have her own way. Besides, mom is not too old to take care of herself."
"Auntie, you should listen to Xiaolan. You and Xiaogua are her only relatives. She can't leave you here alone. If you feel uncomfortable living with us, then move away from us.
Closer, I have several apartments in the city center, which are very close to where I live. This makes it easier for us to take care of you. Xiaolan also said today that she likes to eat your cooking the most. We are usually busy, so when we go home
It’s already late, so living close by will make it easier for us to grab a meal, and then you can help us take Xiaogua to school, right.”
Xiao Yihe knew why Mrs. Huo refused, and he was very moved, but he also knew Huo Lan's concerns, so he proposed such a compromise.
Of course Huo Lan also knew her mother's concerns, so after hearing Xiao Yihe's method, she nodded immediately.
"Yes, Mom, I know you're afraid that you won't feel comfortable living with us, so just listen to Yi He and move to the city closer to us. If you live here, I have to drive forty or fifty minutes every time I come back. You also know the traffic conditions in Kyoto. Traffic jams on your way to and from get off work usually take even longer."
Mrs. Huo is still a little hesitant. This is her daughter's house anyway, but if she moves to the city, she always feels like she is living in someone else's house.
Xiao Yihe seemed to have guessed Mrs. Huo's thoughts and spoke again.
"Auntie, didn't you just tell me and Xiaolan to get the certificate as soon as possible? From now on, we will be a family, and what's mine is Xiaolan's. You don't need to have these thoughts."
"Mom, either I will continue to live here with you, or you will move to the city with us. If you don't like living with us, then ask Yihe to find you an apartment closer to us, and you can
Consider it."
Huo Lan knew her mother too well, so luckily she took a step back and gave her only these two choices. Finally, Mrs. Huo sighed.
"Okay, then find me a place near where you live. I live alone. The place doesn't need to be too big, and it will take a lot of effort to clean."
"Okay, aunt, don't worry, my apartments are usually cleaned regularly. In addition, I will find an aunt for you. Don't refuse this. Although Xiaogua is going to school soon, Xiaolan and I will also be there on weekends."
You may not have time to stay with him at home, so I have to trouble you to take care of Xiaogua, and hiring someone is not entirely because of you."
Xiao Yihe directly used Xiaogua as an excuse, so that Mrs. Huo didn't feel too burdened. Finally, Mrs. Huo was silent for a moment and nodded.
"Okay, you guys can look at the arrangements."
After speaking, Mrs. Huo looked at Xiao Yihe with a cautious face and said.
"Yihe, my aunt has something to correct. From now on, Xiaolan's relatives will not only be me and Xiaogua, but also you, do you understand?"
After saying that, Mrs. Huo was silent for a while, then looked at Huo Lan and said.
"Lan Lan, I know I shouldn't interfere in your affairs. Now that you are back together, Mom hopes that you can give Xiao Gua another brother or sister."
Being urged by her mother to get married in front of her boyfriend, Huo Lan lowered her head shyly. After all, she was only twenty-five years old.
On the other hand, Xiao Yihe's eyes flashed. In fact, since he learned that he had a son yesterday, he has imagined countless times that it would be great if he and Huo Lan could have another child. This time, he must participate in every step of the child's growth.
, to make up for his regrets over the past three years.
No, as soon as Mrs. Huo finished speaking, Xiao Yihe excitedly held Huo Lan's hand and said cautiously.
"Aunt, don't worry, we will definitely work hard to give Xiaogua a younger brother and sister as soon as possible."
"Xiao Yihe, what are you talking about? Did I agree?"
Huo Lan didn't expect Xiao Yihe to act upright in front of his mother, so she glared at him. Unexpectedly, Xiao Yihe climbed up the pole and said something directly.
"We listen to our mother on this matter."
In an instant, even the name of Mrs. Huo changed. Mrs. Huo and Huo Lan were obviously stunned, but then Mrs. Huo showed a happy smile, but Huo Lan looked a little unnatural, pushed Xiao Yihe, and said softly
.
"What the hell, mom, don't scream."
"Sooner or later, Xiaolan, do you still want to marry someone else? After we return to Luo City, you must face up to this matter. You see, Xiaogua is so old. You can't even deny her a status."
me."
"You, Xiao Yihe, can you be any more shameless?"
"It's okay. As long as I can get you to agree to marry me, it doesn't hurt to be a little thicker. Mom, don't you think so?"
This cry was more natural than before. Mrs. Huo didn't know whether to respond or not. Seeing her daughter's embarrassed look, she stood up and said directly.
"Oops, I had a little too much dinner. I'll go downstairs and take a walk."
Jiang was still very hot, so Mrs. Huo immediately stepped away when she saw that she couldn't respond.
After Mrs. Huo left, Huo Lan punched Xiao Yihe in the chest and said angrily.
"Xiao Yihe, I'm really angry that you are doing this nonsense."
When Xiao Yihe saw that he had gone too far, he hugged Huo Lan and said.
"Okay, I won't say it anymore, but Xiaolan, I am serious about getting married. Although you and I know in our hearts that Xiaogua is our child, without this wedding knot, what will outsiders think? I, Xiao Yihe's son, is not
Allow others to point fingers.”
"Okay, okay, I will consider this matter carefully, but you have to give me some time. We just got back together yesterday, so there must be some time for me to adapt."
"Okay, I promise you, I will make arrangements to go back to Luo City with me in the next two days. My grandparents will be very happy if they know that they are great-grandfathers."
While Xiao Yihe was talking, he reached out and touched the little melon that was eating by itself.
Huo Lan became a little nervous after hearing this, but when she saw Xiao Yihe's expression of eager expectation, she nodded silently.
