Chapter 514： Kinda sweet! (2nd update)

In the evening, Xu Huilan invited Long Xiaoyun to eat. As expected, she made a large table of exquisite dishes, which were all full of color, aroma and taste. Just looking at them made people appetite.

During this period, Xu Huilan kept picking up dishes for Long Xiaoyun, which flattered her, and she found that they were basically her favorite dishes.

She and Xu Huilan met for the second time after careful calculation. Obviously, it was impossible for the other party to know what she liked to eat. Thinking back to the afternoon, Xu Huilan called Lin Shu over before buying groceries. It was not difficult to guess that it was at that time that she asked Lin Shu. Special understanding.

 A warm current passed through her heart.

Not only could Lin Shu remember her diet and life preferences, she also saw the importance she attached to her from Mother Lin. This kind of attention undoubtedly eliminated many of her previous worries.

After the meal, the old couple tacitly agreed to go for a walk together on the excuse of "eating too much", leaving the two of them alone time. In fact, the old couple also had a lot to talk about their son's lifelong events.

Home.

Lin Shu put several peeled braised prawns into a bowl and handed it to Long Xiaoyun, "Sister Yun, eat more of the braised prawns made by my mother!"

 As he spoke, he took out a wet tissue and wiped the oil on his hands.

"Okay~!" Long Xiaoyun picked up a piece of shrimp and put it in his mouth. The first thing in his mouth was the freshness and sweetness of the shrimp, mixed with the taste of the oil stew. The taste seemed to explode in the taste buds, making people want to eat it again. the second.

 After this meal, she finally understood why Lin Shu was full of praise for Xu Huilan's cooking. It was indeed so delicious that many famous chefs could not compare with her.

 It is hard to imagine that a lady like Xu Huilan could cook such excellent food.

"It's so delicious! This is the most delicious braised shrimp I have ever eaten." Long Xiaoyun picked up another piece of shrimp and put it into his plump little mouth. He then said with some concern: "Lin Shu, uncle and aunt are all We’re still eating here after we’ve finished eating, are you sure that’s okay?”

 In her opinion, the elders have already finished eating, and the younger generation should also put down their chopsticks. This has been taught by her family since childhood.

"What's the matter? I always do this at home! My mother is quite happy. She thinks this means that the food she cooks is to my liking. Another thing, my parents are afraid that you will restrain them when they go out for a walk. If you don't have enough food at my house, just put your heart in your stomach and eat with peace of mind. It's best to eat all these dishes so that my mother will be happy!"

Lin Shu’s family doesn’t have so many pedantic rules. What’s the point of not having enough to eat?

Long Xiaoyun looked at the dishes on the table, rolled his eyes and said, "You think I'm a pig!"

“Anyway, just eat more, to make sure you’re full.” Lin Shu said, picking up a piece of braised pork ribs and putting it in his mouth. He pinched the end with his fingers and pulled it, and the bones came off easily.

At this time, Long Xiaoyun noticed that the plate of braised prawns on the table was empty. The shrimps were all in her place, but instead, the shrimp shells were piled up in front of Lin Shu.

 She picked up a shrimp with chopsticks, dipped it in the sauce, and handed it to Lin Shu's mouth, "Open your mouth."

Lin Shu was not polite: "Ah~~~" He took the shrimp into his mouth, chewed it, moved his throat, and swallowed it.

 Compared to eating in the army canteen, eating at home is obviously much easier. The two of them are so close to each other that they eat a meal extremely slowly.

 And the other side.

In the Haiyue Xiaozhu Villa Park, Xu Huilan gently held Lin Tonghai's arm. She leaned slightly towards Lin Tonghai, with a sweet smile on her face. It was hard to imagine that this was an old couple who had been married for more than 20 years. wife.

“Tonghai, we haven’t taken a walk like this for a long time.” Xu Huilan said softly.

Lin Tonghai nodded and said: "Yes! The group is usually too busy with work, so it's really nice to go out and walk around occasionally."

Xu Huilan replied: "I remember when the two of us often walked. It was fifteen years ago when you were the deputy director of forestry in Gusu City, right? At that time, my son lived with his grandparents."

　　When mentioning fifteen years ago, Lin Tonghai showed a look of reminiscence on his face and sighed: "Yes, I was not busy at work at that time. You often walked with me after work."

Xu Huilan narrowed her eyes and smiled: "At that time, we all thought that you would continue to be in politics, but we didn't expect that you would resign and start a business."

Fifteen years ago, Lin Tonghai was in his thirties, and he was already in his prime. With the support of the Lin and Xu families, if Lin Tonghai continued on, his future would be bright now, but no one thought that it would be possible. That year, when his career was on the rise, he suddenly made such a crazy move!

“Alas, no one supported me at that time, but you persuaded your family to give me the dowry of your two sisters to start a business for me.”

Because of starting a business, Lin Tonghai had a big fight with his family. The family did not provide him with any help, thanks to Huilan.

Xu Huilan smiled: "There is no way, who made you my husband? I don't support you, who supports you?"

Lin Tonghai asked curiously: "Huilan, I have been wanting to ask you for so many years, weren't you afraid that I would lose money in business?"

Xu Huilan said: "Afraid!"

 “Then you still...”

Xu Huilan said calmly: "But I believe you!" Just five words, but Lin Tonghai was stunned as if he was struck by lightning. Looking at Xu Huilan, his throat moved, but he didn't know what to say. .

“Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with my face?” Xu Huilan asked with a smile.

"No." Lin Tonghai shook his head, "You are prettier than flowers!"

"You...you are so old and still say these earthy love words, you are not ashamed." Xu Huilan said, and then suddenly asked: "Speaking of which, what do you think of your son's girlfriend?"

Lin Tonghai asked: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

"every aspect."

Lin Tonghai pondered for a while and said in a deep voice: "The girl is quite nice and has a good personality. She and her son are in the same work unit and colleagues. We should have a lot of common topics. And judging from the look of his son, he seems to like her. It’s just that in terms of age... she’s a bit older.”

Xu Huilan looked at Lin Tonghai and said with a smile: "You are a bit superficial. Isn't there a saying? Female junior, hold on to gold bricks."

"But the number of gold bricks is a bit too much! Almost three yuan!" Lin Tonghai smiled bitterly: "I'm not worried about anything else, but you see, if our son reaches the age of marriage in the army, it will take three years. How many! The girls were already 32 at that time. You can’t tell anything now, but what about when our son is thirty? They are almost forty. You also know that once a woman gives birth to a child, she ages very quickly. , I’m afraid that the marriage between the two of us will not be so happy by then!”

"You're thinking too far..." Xu Huilan paused, nodded and said, "Age is indeed a problem, but I don't think it's a big problem, right? It mainly depends on whether our son cares about this! He likes it That’s what matters most.”

Lin Tonghai smiled and said: "How could he not like it? This has brought the family here, isn't it clear that he is conveying his attitude to us?"

Xu Huilan was stunned when she heard this, "That's right! This brat...I didn't expect that after serving as a soldier for two years, he brought the target back first! He's quite capable!"

Lin Tonghai curled his lips and said, "He has a lot of abilities. He was a regular in nightclubs before he became a soldier. How can he still chase girls?"

Xu Huilan smiled and said, "That's different...don't treat this girl as an ordinary person. Let me tell you, as soon as she sat there today, she spoke and behaved like a girl from a wealthy family, and she will definitely not be the same in the family."

Hearing this, Lin Tonghai thought for a while, "That's true, she has already passed the rank of lieutenant colonel at this age, and her family is very strict!"

“Maybe her family has some connections with the old man.” Xu Huilan guessed.

There are only a few famous families in the capital, and the surname Long itself is extremely rare. You can count the number of big shots named Long in the capital on your fingers.

Lin Tonghai and Xu Huilan had actually guessed something, but they didn't dare to think about it deeply, but their minds were clear. If Long Xiaoyun was really that Long family member, then this background... would almost reach the sky!

Lin Tonghai asked: "What do you mean? Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Look at that brat?"

Xu Huilan replied, "Yes! My son has grown up and is aware of the issues we both know. How can he not think about it? If it doesn't work, I can talk to him sometime and see what he means."

"Well, okay, after all, this brat has been kissing you since he was a child! He has never told me what's on his mind." Lin Tonghai felt a little offended.

Xu Huilan rolled her eyes at him, "Who told you that you were busy before and had little contact with your son? When you grow up, you have to play the role of a strict father and deduct his pocket money. It's strange that he can be close to you!"

Lin Tonghai held his breath and said: "What are you talking about! Then I deducted his pocket money, didn't you make up for it? You have established the image of a loving mother, but all you took was my money!"

Xu Huilan glared, "Tell me clearly, whose money is it?"

"Yours, yours, yours...our money is all yours..." Lin Tonghai quickly lost his battle.

Speaking of which, even though he was promoted to the richest man in Jiangsu province this year and is listed on the Forbes rich list. He has great hands and eyes in the business world, can call the shots and make decisions without hesitation, but the financial power of the family is in the hands of Xu Huilan!

 Since when did people in the capital become afraid of their wives?

 Alas, I have embarrassed the men of the capital! !

Lin Tonghai felt bitter.

 …

Lin.

Almost another twenty minutes passed before Lin Shu and Long Xiaoyun finished their meal. Since the family did not hire a nanny, Lin Shu cleared the table after the meal. Long Xiaoyun wanted to help but he stopped him and brought her some fruit. Let her go to the living room and watch TV.

 How can anyone be busy cleaning up after the guests have finished their meal? Not to mention her own girlfriend.

Long Xiaoyun was sitting on the sofa, eating sliced ​​oranges. A TV series was playing on the TV, but her eyes were only on the back of Lin Shu, wearing an apron and busy washing dishes in the kitchen, with a slight curl of her pink lips.

 The life after marriage should be the same, right?

Such a commonplace thing seems... a little sweet!
