Although it was their second marriage, Cao Xiaolian still wanted to have a good time with Old Man Li and Old Mother Cao. The two sisters had discussed it with each other and decided to take them to the capital to have a look at their bodies.
Mother Cao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. She waved her hand and said that there was no need, that she was still in good health and was just preparing for a rainy day. However, Cao Xiaolian refused to do anything, so the mother could not refuse the two children. She had no choice but to buy a ticket and board the train to the north.
The family of four had just happened to have a soft sleeper in their carriage. Cao Xiaoxia had probably trained herself up as well, and was not feeling carsick anymore. On the train there was also a chattering discussion with her mother. Here was the hill, and there was going to be a plain.
As she spoke, she turned around, "Sis, when are you going to cross the Yellow River?"
"It's still early. It will be midnight by the time we cross the Yellow River. "
Cao Xiao Xia curled her lips. She still wanted to see the Yellow River.
"When we get back, I'll tell you guys about a travel agency, and you two can take a trip to the south." Cao Xiaolian stuck her head out of the bed and said, "It's getting warm in Sanya now. You guys go together and get the sun."
"That won't do." Mother Cao quickly waved her hands. "The kindergarten is about to start. We have to hurry. We have to go earlier and clean up. Teachers must also come in advance to train, otherwise their parents will have to go to work, and their children will have nowhere to go. "
"That's why I don't approve of this kindergarten." Cao Xiaoxia retorted, "It's too seductive. It's inconvenient for Mom to go anywhere."
"Then you're wrong." Old Li laughed heartily. "Your mom is someone who can't stay idle. If she doesn't have a few children to watch, then she might not be feeling well. One thing she does makes her feel better. "
"Your Uncle Li is right." Old Cao added, "You youngsters don't understand either."
"Yo yo yo." Cao Xiaoxia purposely raised her voice, "We all share the same intention!"
Mother Cao finally reacted and blushed, "You damned girl, what nonsense are you spouting?"
Just like that, a family of pleasures passed by, talking and laughing merrily.
When the train pulled into the station, Cao Xiaoxia purposely said, "Hey, I saw brother-in-law."
"Where?"
Cao Xiaolian looked out of the window and saw that the train was still moving. She realized that she had been tricked by her little sister. She snappily said, "You, stop messing around."
Old Cao heard, "Little Li, you're here to pick us up?"
Before Cao Xiaoling could say anything, her sister had already turned pale. "Of course, this is a chance for him to show off."
"Don't talk nonsense." Mother Cao was a little nervous, "It's the new year, it's not good if I don't come with my family."
"It's fine, Mom. His family only has his father and sister. He probably went to visit relatives. The school hasn't opened yet, so it's just nice that you're here to pick us up. "
After Cao Xiaolian had comforted her, her mother was still worried. "Xiaolian, let it be today. Don't ask her to stay with you every day."
"Don't worry, Mom."
Just as he said that, a familiar figure flashed by the window.
If it wasn't Li Yugeng, who else could it be?
The train moved forward a little, and finally came to a stop.
Everything had already been packed. Cao Xiaoxia was still playing on the bed. She slowly put on her shoes and was then nagged by Mother Cao.
As he was talking, he suddenly turned silent.
Cao Xiaoxia was baffled when she saw a familiar figure standing in front of her.
Li Yugeng wore a gray overcoat and a cashmere scarf. He appeared refined and quiet.
"Brother-in-law!"
As soon as she cried out, she was slapped by Mother Cao.
"Dawn." After greeting his uncle, Li YuGeng looked at his mother, "Auntie, Uncle, thank you for your hard work on our journey."
"Not at all, not at all." Mother Cao quickly stood up. Just as she was about to take her bag, she was taken by Li Yugeng.
"Sigh."
"Mom." Cao Xiaolian laughed, "Let him do it."
Just like that, Li YuGeng carried two large bags, Cao Xiaolan and Xiaoya each pulling a box. On the other hand, Old Li and Old Cao were empty-handed. Old Li wanted to help, but was persuaded by Cao Xiaolian to pull Mother Cao along.
He walked directly to the parking lot from the ground and put his things in the trunk.
"Wow!" Cao Xiaoxia spotted the items in the trunk and said, "Brother-in-law, aren't you being too romantic?"
Li YuGeng patted her head and smiled. "I'll give it to you next time."
Then, he took out the bouquet of pink and white perfume lilies from the trunk and gave it to Mother Cao. "Auntie, this is for you."
"For, for me?" Mother Cao was flattered, and when she looked at such a beautiful flower again, she was astonished, "This … such a beautiful flower, this is the first time I've seen it."
Since no one was feeling dizzy, Cao Xiaolan sat in the front passenger seat while the other three sat in the back.
From there, he walked directly to the house in the East Gate.
Cao Xiaolian had told her mother long ago that she had given them an empty house in the capital. She would come here soon and would have her own home in the capital.
On the other hand, Mother Cao did not dare to believe it. She was happy that her daughter had the ability, but also felt sorry for her child, because she was too tired to earn money. He directly told her not to overdo it and not to pay attention to his body.
The residential area was separated by cars. When they arrived at the basement, they directly pressed on the elevator. Old Li and Old Cao's eyes were no longer sharp enough.
Of course, the one that Shang Yin had left was the district's tower lord, the best type of household. This house had three bedrooms and two living rooms. As she was a designer in Hong Kong, there was also a small nanny room. Cao Xiaolian had made a studio here to make it convenient for her to draw manuscripts or design things like that.
This was Cao Xiaoxia's second time here. She had seen many tall buildings in Shanghai. On the other hand, Old Li and Old Cao were speechless.
Since he knew he was coming back, Shang Yin had called for someone to clean the house in advance. Thus, he quickly put down his things and went to take a bath.
After everyone had gone to their own rooms to clean up, Li Yugeng finally had time to have a good talk with his lover.
As soon as Cao Xiaolan entered her room, she heard the door being locked behind her.
Turning around, he saw a certain intellectual, his eyes shining like a wolf's as he stared at him.
"Xiao Lian." "I don't think so."
Cao Xiaoling smiled mischievously. "Guess."
His head suddenly pressed against her chest, causing her to feel suffocated.
After listening for a long time, he raised his head and smiled like a child. "I heard it say I wanted to."
Cao Xiaoliu blushed. Just now, her ears had been stuck to something.
"Aren't you going to stay with your family today?"
"They went to Australia with my aunt's family." He glared at her. "Don't change the subject. Did you miss me?"
Cao Xiaolian said shyly, "You, didn't you already know?"
"But I want to hear it from you." His hand touched her soft lips. That was the place that he yearned for so much.
"Tell me, I want to hear it from your own mouth." Li YuGeng's voice was full of bewitching, "Xiao Lian, I miss you so much, I really miss you."
Perhaps it was because the aloof and cold person looked especially cute when he acted so coquettishly. Anyway, every time Li Yugeng acted like this, he always made her feel very cute and cute. There was one type of appearance that a cute little rabbit was having when it was acting coquettishly to him.
So she reached up to the top of his head and ruffled his soft hair.
"Yes." She stared into those eyes and smiled until her eyes curved. "Every day."
Obviously, he did not know that his success as a big darling had been won, so he narrowed his eyes.
He couldn't stay in the house for too long. After all, there were still people around. Thus, after someone simply stole an incense stick, the two of them came out together.
There were a total of two bathrooms in this house. Cao Xiaoxia was blow-drying her hair for her mother.
"Mom."
She stuck her head out and said, "When we're done resting, let's go take a look first and then go to the hospital tomorrow to have a look."
"That's right, Mom. We can stop worrying after seeing it." Cao Xiaoxia also followed up, "Besides, the doctor told you back then that you had to go for an examination every year."
"Fine, fine, fine. I can't beat you. Go!"
Cao Xiaolian and her sister looked at each other and smiled, but did not say anything.
Li YuGeng had already arranged the route beforehand. The car had arrived early in the morning, and it was only around eight o'clock. They went downstairs to have breakfast and then went to the old palace together. Tiananmen Gate was there to have a good look.
The Tiananmen Gate was the most impressive place in the capital, so it was the first place they had to visit since arriving.
As a result, Old Li was fine and Old Cao's mother was disappointed.
The Tiananmen Sect was only two stories tall, and with the 12 lanes of Chang'an Street as a backdrop, it was a pitiful sight to watch.
Cao Xiaoliu explained with a smile. The ancients were not like the old days. In terms of architecture, this was already considered powerful and powerful. It was just that the current skyscrapers seemed to be nothing more than a tall building.
Maybe the concept of tourism was not the same as it was in the past, so there were not many people. On the other hand, there were more foreigners with yellow hair and white skin.
After buying the ticket, he went straight in through the door.
Upon entering, he felt the grandeur within.
Cao Xiaolian had a good history when she was in school. Li YuGeng was a scholar, so he didn't need to use an explanation device. He added a few stories from time to time, like wild history, to keep Old Li and Old Cao company. The two listened happily.
"Sigh, Sis."
The two sisters, who had been left behind, secretly whispered to each other, "Didn't you notice that our mother and Uncle Li have a great understanding?"
"Yeah." Cao Xiaolian also lamented, "And obviously, there is a lot more smiles on your mother's face."
A young couple would come together when they were old. The old people had to have a person at their side so that their spiritual world wouldn't be empty and their aging would be delayed as well.
Now that she saw her mother like this, she was really happy from the bottom of her heart.
He still vividly remembered his mother's appearance on the sickbed in his previous life. She was so thin that she had lost her human form. Her shriveled arms were desperately trying to grab onto something, but in the end, she was able to hold on to nothing. When he left, he did not even close his eyes.
Thus, in this life, she truly hoped that her mother would be able to live a good life.
Because the two of them were old, they walked and stopped. Many of the side halls were still being renovated and had yet to open. As such, when he was halfway there, he didn't even go to the storage palace and directly turned back.
There were many in the West Six Palaces that hadn't been opened yet, so there was no point in going.
He went downstairs, found a Guest Temple snack, and had some local breakfast. Luckily, Li YuGeng didn't give him any fried liver bean juice, so they all ate quite well.
When they came, the car had stopped in the South Pond Street. Now that they had picked up the car, they all headed straight for the front door.
Coming to the capital, there really was one that he had to eat.
Roast duck!
It was already 2 in the afternoon, and the food consumed at 10 o'clock was almost used up. Right at this moment, he went to the Peace Gate to eat roast duck.
