Chapter 168: Holding back the urge to urinate (please subscribe)
September 10th, Saturday, Mid-Autumn Festival.
For Lin Lu at this moment, it doesn't matter whether it's the Mid-Autumn Festival or not. What's important is that today is the day when he and Li Xingruo go to meet his parents for the first time. For a college student who has just celebrated his nineteenth birthday, now
It should be a very big thing to go to see the parents... What a ghost! Lin Lu felt that he was extremely nervous now!
People always realize it later, just like they regret not studying well when they arrive in the examination room. It was only today that Lin Lu felt a little regretful, why he had so readily agreed to Sister Xingruo's Mid-Autumn Festival with her
We go home together, and even want to go to Liangxi with her on weekdays. So naive! So naive! You should put it off until you graduate and have a decent job and income before going!
God knows how many questions Lin Lu has searched and asked on major online platforms these days about visiting parents at home. He thought he would be confident after completing the questions a hundred times, but when the day came, he still felt nervous and apprehensive.
.
Now that the arrow is on the string, Lin Lu has no choice but to take it. The attitude of Sister Xingruo's family is very important. This trip can only succeed, not fail.
Last night, she was held to sleep by sister Xingruo, and she slept soundly. Lin Lu suffered from two kinds of torture and couldn't sleep all night. The alarm clock was set for eight o'clock. It was only six o'clock when the sky was just getting dark.
He gently took her hand away, brought the bear in school uniform to her and hugged her, then quietly got out of bed and left the room.
In order to relieve the excitement, anticipation, nervousness, uneasiness and other messy emotions, he went downstairs and ran three kilometers outside. Carrying the buns and soy milk he bought, he returned home sweating profusely, and then took a serious shower.
Take a hot bath, brush your teeth and wash your hands while standing in front of the mirror.
Damn it, a little dark circles under my eyes...
After applying it with a hot towel for a while, he could barely see it anymore. When he returned to his room, Lin Lu quickly changed his clothes. He chose casual pants and a white shirt to look more mature and stable, and then put on that pair of clothes.
She wore flat glasses to show off, and her hair was blow-dried. Her bangs were blown open to reveal her forehead, and she applied some unscented setting spray.
After all, no one is perfect, and he doesn't know what he looks like or how he dresses does not suit Uncle Li and the others. He has never cared whether others like him or not, but this time is an exception. He must let Uncle Li and the others.
You have to like yourself, maybe this is where the pressure lies.
The luggage had been packed last night. Lin Lu finished packing himself and looked at the time. It was only seven o'clock. Sure enough, the flow of time is related to people's mood. Sometimes time passes very quickly, but sometimes it passes very quickly.
Long.
He gently opened Li Xingruo's door and took a look. She was not awake yet. She was sleeping soundly with his school uniform bear in her arms.
It was still early, so Lin Lu didn't wake her up. He wanted to sleep, but unfortunately he couldn't. It felt like staying up late and drinking three cups of coffee and three bottles of Red Bull. His body was obviously very sleepy, but he was full of energy.
The little fat cat stayed with his mother last night, and today he went to Uncle Wen's hometown with Momo Yanyan and the others to celebrate the festival. Lin Lu felt like he was going to the battlefield alone.
The house was quiet, and he didn't sit idle and wait. He went to the study and took the drawing board to the balcony. He took out his brush and started painting. At this time in early September, at seven o'clock, the sun was just rising from the east.
He painted the city's sunrise right here on the balcony.
Not to mention, as the picture on the paper gradually formed, his restless heart gradually became calmer.
Perhaps this is the charm of painting for him. After his parents divorced, he spent those restless and anxious days and nights by immersing himself in the world of painting. Every time he picked up a brush to paint, he thought of winter.
Lin Lu's heart would be very peaceful when she would bask in the sun with him in the park.
Now that I think about it, I should feel happier. After all, she is here in my memory, and he will go back to Liangxi with her soon... Don't think about coming to the door anymore!!
At 7:50, Lin Lu put away the paintings, washed his hands, and went to Li Xingruo's room again.
Compared to forty minutes ago, the sister next door had changed her sleeping position now, maybe because the room was getting brighter. She looked like she hadn't had enough sleep yet, so she pulled up the quilt and put it over her head to hide.
It was bright, and as she pulled up the quilt, her slender and lustrous calves were exposed. Her little feet were so cute, with soft and pink soles. Looking at them, people wanted to stretch out their fingers and scratch her soles.
Scratching.
Lin Lu went to scratch it.
He lay on the bedside, secretly stretched out his fingers and lightly touched the soft soles of her feet twice. She shrank her feet, and her little lotus-like toes also curled up, like a snail's eyes being touched.
Similar.
Lin Lu tickled her twice more, and she seemed a little angry. She whined and hummed a few times, as if there were annoying mosquitoes.
The little feet also retracted into the bed.
The quilt was covered on her body, and she curled up into a small ball in the quilt, with her pretty face buried in the quilt. Only her waist-length hair bloomed and scattered like flowers on the pillow.
"Sister Xing Ruo..."
Lin Lu called her softly.
"Get up, get up..."
She continued to sleep soundly.
Lin Lu sat on the edge of the bed, leaned down, and gently used his fingers to open the edge of the quilt covering her head. This process was like peeling an egg. As he used his fingers to open the edge of the quilt, she
That pink and soft face was revealed.
She was pillowing on her arm, her face looked a little baby fat due to the squeezing, her big eyes were closed, and her two rows of eyelashes were long and dense, like small brushes. As Lin Lu called her, her eyes
The eyelashes twitched slightly, but they didn't open their eyes.
"Still sleeping, it's eight o'clock...!"
"Well……"
There was no other way, so Lin Lu had no choice but to wake her up with gentle pops. Sister Xingruo's little face was so soft, and when she took a sip, it was like jelly. She could pick up a small piece and then make a pop sound.
"Oh My God……"
She was rolling around unhappily like a little caterpillar. Her voice, which she had just woken up from, was cute and soft, making people's ears feel itchy.
"What are you doing..."
"Sister Xingruo hasn't gotten up yet, it's already eight o'clock!"
"..."
Li Xingruo, who had just woken up, was still a little dazed. He sat on the bed in a duck-like position with his pillow in his arms, pouted his mouth slightly, and gently rubbed his eyes with his slender fingers.
When she looked up at Lin Lu, she saw that he had already washed and dressed. Lin Lu opened the curtains and let the sunlight shine into the room unbridled, finally driving away her sleepy little bug.
"what time is it?"
"It's eight o'clock."
"When did you wake up..."
"I woke up a long time ago. How can I be as lazy as Sister Xingruo? I even ran three kilometers and drew a picture!"
"Hmph, I don't even draft a draft when I'm bragging."
It wasn't until he walked out of the room and saw the breakfast bought by Lin Lu and the sunrise painting he had just painted that Li Xingruo believed that he had really gotten up early in the morning. The old sister was angry, funny and heart-warming, and she also
She thinks he is so stupid and cute, why not just go home with him, as if her parents want to eat him.
Her mood was somewhat different from Lin Lu's. She was less nervous than him, less uneasy than him, and much more excited than him.
Thinking about it, half a year ago she told some of her best friends that they would be single for the rest of their lives, but today she was taking Lin Lu back to Liangxi to meet her parents. It felt a little like a dream. Sure enough, she had agreed with Jay Chou's words.
Lyrics: Love comes too fast, like a tornado.
While she was having breakfast, Lin Lu started doing push-ups again. Because he was not used to wearing glasses, after doing push-ups for a few times, his glasses fell off, and he put them on again in embarrassment.
"What's wrong with you?"
"I don't know what I'm feeling!"
"Sister is here, what are you afraid of? Have you remembered what I taught you last night?"
"Remember, Sister Xingruo's grandfather's dog is called Ah Huang. Ah Huang is very smart. He can recognize his family members at a glance. He can eat two bowls of rice at a time. Don't nip him when you tease him. He will bark.
I want to call him Ah Huang Ah Huang."
"...Who asked you about Ah Huang!"
"I mean, I remember Sister Xingruo's grandfather's dog, not to mention the others."
"Well, I guess you take it seriously."
"Sister Xingruo."
"what?"
"If Uncle Li and Aunt Chen don't like me, do you want to elope with me?"
"No, bye!"
"No! Sister Xingruo, try to coax me. You said, 'Even if my parents don't like you, I will elope with you.' That way I won't be nervous!"
"Oh, okay, okay, I really can't do anything to you..."
Not only did Lin Lu dress up specially, but Li Xingruo also dressed up after breakfast and put on a beautiful little skirt. It was completely different from the usual sportswear and pants when he went home. This was also a manifestation of his mental outlook.
, you have to let your parents see that your daughter has become better after falling in love.
After briefly cleaning up and closing the doors and windows, Lin Lu carried her bag and suitcase. She picked up some souvenirs and the trash to be thrown away later. At 8:50, the two of them went out on time.
At nine o'clock sharp, the A6 carrying the siblings slowly drove out of the community and headed for the road to Liangxi.
Because Lin Lu had not gotten his driver's license for less than a year and could not drive on the expressway, the route he chose was an ordinary road. The navigation indicated that it would take him one hour and twenty-six minutes. This was the farthest distance Lin Lu had ever driven after getting his driver's license.
Lin Lu is very familiar with the city since he drives in the city on weekdays, and rarely uses navigation. Now that he is driving with the navigation on, his mood at this moment is like going to Liangxi to meet his parents, which is also very fresh.
Not to mention, he was nervous before going, but after the car got on the road, he calmed down a lot, probably because he was already on the road.
While waiting at the traffic light, Li Xingruo peeled off a candy and stuffed it into his mouth. She also ate one herself, her legs stretched out comfortably under her skirt. This was also the first time she went home without taking the high-speed rail.
Instead, there is a special car to pick you up, which feels really good.
Taking out her mobile phone, she turned the camera sideways to Lin Lu, took a photo, and then sent it to the 'Auspicious Three Treasures' family group.
star: "[Photo]"
star: "We're leaving now! If there's no traffic jam, we'll be home at half past ten!"
Dad: "Does it take so long? It takes about fifty minutes on the expressway."
star: "We didn't take the highway!"
Dad: "[Photo]"
Dad: "Your mother is killing chickens. Your uncles are also coming back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival tonight. I heard you said you brought your boyfriend back, and they all want to meet you."
star: "There are so many people this year?"
Dad: "I didn't come back last year to prevent the epidemic during the Mid-Autumn Festival. This year I came back to be lively and lively. You tell Xiao Lin to drive slower on the road and pay attention to safety."
Li Xingruo told Lin Lu, and Lin Lu, who had just calmed down for a while, became nervous again.
"What? Sister Xingruo's uncles are coming back tonight too? We haven't prepared any gifts for our uncles. What should we do? Go to Liangxi and buy some more?"
"...Don't be nervous, they are back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, just meet them."
"Sister Xingruo, your information is inaccurate!"
"Calm down, let's have dinner together as a family at noon."
…
Liangxi is one of the central cities in the Yangtze River Delta region, and Lin Lu came to this city for the first time.
Compared with Sunan, a new first-tier city, Liangxi is still slightly less prosperous, perhaps because this city is her hometown, and Lin Lu also has some different emotions for this city.
The car did not take the expressway, but walked along the ordinary road. Lin Lu also had a preliminary understanding of the appearance of the city of Liangxi.
“The city center feels the same.”
"Hey, have you arrived at Liangxi yet?"
"..."
Maybe this is Lu Chi. Li Xingruo didn't sleep or play with her mobile phone. She looked out the car window like a curious kitten, but even so, she didn't even notice that she had reached Liangxi.
"But my home is not in the city center. Well, it should be about half an hour's drive away!"
"Sister Xingruo actually knows the way?"
"No, I know the time. If I take my dad's car to the city center on weekdays, it takes about half an hour."
Lin Lu looked at the navigation information on the left. It was indeed less than half an hour away from his destination. Before he knew it, he had walked two-thirds of the way. The navigation location was a small supermarket next to Li Xingruo's home.
, as the car moved forward, the cursor also moved slowly, just like his mood at the moment.
"It's over, Sister Xingruo, I suddenly want to go to the toilet..."
"Where can I go to the bathroom? Hold on, there's only half an hour left. Let's go home and use it again!"
Half an hour is actually quite fast. After passing the urban area, there are fewer vehicles on the road, and the road has changed from eight lanes to four lanes. Unknowingly, we have entered the scope of the small county town. The high-rise buildings suddenly disappeared.
All we could see were low-rise buildings and shops, and the view of the horizon broadened. After passing through small towns one after another, the color of the roads also changed from asphalt color to gray-white. There were occasional potholes, and the sunlight also changed.
It got heated up.
As Lin Lu's need to urinate became more and more urgent, Li Xingruo's eyes became brighter and brighter as he looked out the window.
"I know the way!"
"..."
It's not easy to get the road-crazy Sister Xingruo to say this. This also shows that it's really only a few kilometers away from her home.
"Don't follow the navigation. Wait and turn into the small intersection over there. There will be fewer cars and it will be faster!"
"..."
Look, her navigation skills are gone, she can even command Lin Lu!
Under her command, Lin Lu turned a corner and drove the car into a narrow two-lane road. Then he turned a corner again, and a straight two-lane road appeared in front of her. Directly in front of her tender fingers, the lane's
In front of the fork in the road, in the third-to-last building in a row of self-built houses of different heights, next to a Jinrong supermarket, that three-story self-built house, her voice became louder:
"Did you see it? That's my home!"
"..."
Lin Lu's heart was in his throat.
Is this where Sister Xingruo grew up...
His speed slowed down. It was now half past ten in the morning, and the front of the car was facing the east. The hot sunlight made him squint a little, as if he had just woken up from a dream.
It's time to arrive at her home.
There are some scattered pedestrians on the street. The bun steamers and noodle soup pots at the breakfast shop next to it are steaming. From time to time, electric cars pass by. The license plates of various vehicles that I see start with Su B.
The road of two to three hundred meters passed by in the blink of an eye. Lin Lu could clearly see the whole three-story building. Her house was on his left. Like most other houses in the surrounding area, it was an ordinary small building with an outer wall.
There was a trace of moss growing in the gaps between the tiles. There was a spacious parking lot at the door, and a white car was parked in it.
Although it has already entered autumn, the flowers and plants in front of the building are still growing luxuriantly, and the branches and leaves have obviously been pruned not long ago. The cement floor in front of the door has been cleaned very clean. A middle-aged man wearing a POLO shirt with the hem tucked into casual pants is doing this.
Put away the cleaning tools; there is also a woman with her hair tied up sitting on a small bench, leaning under the faucet next to the door, using tweezers to pull out the thin feathers of the fat duck killed in the basin.
"My dad and my mom! Hey, eh, eh...? It's been opened! It's been opened!"
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, sister Xingruo, wait for me to adjust my mood first..."
Originally, Lin Lu wanted to turn a corner and go in, but when he saw Uncle Li and Aunt Chen at the door, he became very nervous for a while, so he simply went around in circles to adjust his mood.
Seeing Lin Lu's nervous look, Li Xingruo was angry and funny, so she let him go. She leaned back on the chair again, wanting to see how many laps he could take.
On the fourth lap, Li Xingruo couldn't help it any longer and said angrily: "Idiot, have you adjusted well? You've already walked through the door three times and never got in!"
Fortunately, there is a road in front of the house, and my parents don't have the habit of paying attention to passing cars. If they saw this car that passed by the house three times, they would probably be confused.
"Okay! I'm ready!"
"real?"
"real!"
If he kept going in circles, Lin Lu felt like his bladder was going to explode!
"Then let's go in."
"..."
Passing by her door again, this time Lin Lu turned on the turn signal in advance, the car stopped, slowly turned a right angle to the left, and then slowly drove in directly in front of her door.
Chen Yingping, who was plucking duck feathers, raised her head, and the people who were washing tea sets also raised their heads.
They had already seen their precious daughter sitting in the passenger seat of the car, and Lin Lu who was smiling and nodding in the car and raising his hand to say hello.
The two elders immediately stopped what they were doing, put smiles on their faces, and walked over together.
Lin Lu lowered the windows on both sides of the car and parked the car under Li Min's instructions.
"Hello Uncle Li, hello Auntie."
Lin Lu's car hadn't even turned off yet, so she quickly said hello. Li Xingruo, who was in the passenger seat, unbuckled her seat belt and got out of the car first. She was also very nervous, and her big eyes were always paying attention to the expressions of her parents.
"Dad! Mom! We are back, he, he is Lin Lu."
"Oh! Okay, okay, hello Xiaolin, is there no traffic jam on the road?"
"Fortunately, it went quite smoothly..."
Lin Lu quickly turned off the engine and got out of the car. Although he was down to earth, he felt like he was taking a very fast elevator. He was panicking. He didn't know if it was because it was too hot. He felt that his face was slightly hot. Maybe
It was probably because of the gazes of Uncle Li and Aunt Chen, who were a head shorter than him in front of him. After he got out of the car, their eyes shifted from their daughter to him.
When he arrived, Lin Lu rehearsed the script for the meeting in his mind countless times, but when he stood in front of the two elders, he just felt that his mind was a little blank, as if a pig had delivered the cabbage to his door.
"Xiao Lin is much taller than he looks in the photo!"
"If he were wearing shoes, he would be almost 1.85 meters tall."
Before Lin Lu could answer, Li Xingruo quickly walked around from the front of the car and stood next to him, stretching out her little hand as if to indicate her and his height.
Don't tell me, but I didn't think anything about Lin Lu's words, but when my daughter stood beside him, the old parents felt that they were quite compatible.
The old parents could feel the nervousness of the young man in front of them. The young man looked pretty good, and he was the kind of face that women would praise when they met him. Although he didn't talk much when they first met, he looked a little shy, but he had a good smile.
, young people who love to laugh always look sunny.
It was the first time for my daughter to bring a boy to her house, and it was as her boyfriend. The parents were a little nervous, but as elders, they were naturally much calmer. No, even Li Xingruo could see that.
Their clothes were specially arranged, chickens and ducks were killed, and the house was cleaned cleanly. They usually open a shop during the Chinese New Year, but today they closed the shop to rest and waited at home specially.
Sure enough, it's not as simple as 'having a meal and meeting'. Both of them valued Lin Lu's visit this time.
"Xiao Lin, you've worked hard all the way here. Come in and have some tea."
"well."
Lin Lu opened the trunk and together with Li Xingruo took out the luggage and gifts from the trunk.
In front of his uncle and aunt, he naturally had to behave well. In addition to a backpack carried by Li Xingruo, he was responsible for carrying suitcases and a large number of other things.
At first, he thought it was just because he was nervous that he found it difficult to hold back the urge to urinate. But when his hands were filled with things, the pressure on his body increased, and Lin Lu felt that he was holding back the urge to urinate so much that sweat broke out on his forehead.
But it happened to be at her house, and I was embarrassed to say that I had to go to the bathroom as soon as I entered the house, so I had to grit my teeth and hold it in.
"Why do you still buy so many things..."
"I didn't buy it!"
"Of course I know you didn't buy it, and you didn't stop Xiao Lin. Didn't Mom ask you to let Xiao Lin come over to eat and stay for two days to play? This is too polite..."
"Yes, Uncle and Auntie Li, it's a rare occasion to come here with a little care. I hope Uncle and Auntie Li like it and can use it."
"Xiao Lin is interested, come in the house quickly. Come in the house quickly."
Following Li Xingruo's family, Lin Lu walked into the house. The living room on the first floor was spacious and bright, and a fruit plate, melon seeds, snacks and other items were already placed on the coffee table.
Lin Lu was holding a lot of things in his hands. He didn't know where to put them for a while, so he looked at Li Xingruo as if asking for help.
Li Xingruo also helped him take the things in his hands very sensibly. After all, her parents would be embarrassed to take them. She took the things and took them to a room to pack them away.
"Xiao Lin, sit down, you're welcome, just treat it as your own home."
"well."
Li Min was sitting at the main seat making tea, and Lin Lu was sitting opposite him. The sofa was made of solid wood. He sat upright, and his lower back did not touch the sofa at all.
"Xiao Lin, please sit down for now. I'll finish cleaning up the two ducks and make braised duck for you later."
"Auntie, let me help you."
Lin Lu stood up, and Chen Yingping said quickly: "No, no, you come all the way here, drink tea and rest first, there is not much work to do, just come here."
"Come, Xiaolin, have tea."
Li Min poured him tea, and Lin Lu hurriedly held the cup and knocked: "Thank you, Uncle Li."
The tea was a little hot and he felt a little urgent to urinate. Lin Lu still picked up the tea cup, blew on it and took a few sips.
She honestly didn't look around, but occasionally glanced at the room where Li Xingruo had just put her things, feeling a little anxious as to why she hadn't come out yet.
After finishing a cup of tea, Lin Lu put down the cup, his bladder about to burst.
Li Min immediately gave him a refill.
"..."
"..."
He and Uncle Li were the only two people left in the living room, one pouring tea and the other drinking tea.
In Li Xingruo's absence, neither the future father-in-law nor the future son-in-law spoke, and the living room fell into a tacit and strange silence over drinking tea...
