I'm The Hard Rice King

Chapter 424

"Let's eat, let's eat."

"Manning, you two sit here."

Li Yilan in the bedroom fell asleep after drinking milk, while the adults finally sat down in the restaurant to enjoy the belated lunch.

At first, the atmosphere was quite harmonious. Li Peifeng's cooking skills became more and more exquisite, and the delicacies were in front of him, which pleased everyone's tongues. Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi paid some attention to the work and life of several people, and chatted harmoniously with each other. Happy, until Xu Manying suddenly asked a question, and the expressions of everyone at the table changed subtly.

"Uncle and aunt, when do you plan to go to Hangzhou after the new year?"

While asking questions, Miss Xu and Wu Wenyue both stared at the expressions of the two elders and Zhao Qingge's face.

This may be the main purpose of coming to Li's house to pay New Year's greetings. They want to know the attitude of Li Peifeng's parents towards Huang Tianxuan.

Huang Tianxuan is about to give birth to a child, and her marriage to Li Peifeng has reached a point where it can no longer be postponed. It is imperative that the Li and Huang families sit together to meet.

At first, Mr. Li's cake paintings were very beautiful, and he wanted to hold a wedding for everyone so that they could all become brides without leaving any regrets.

To complete it successfully, it is necessary to get Zhao Qingge's consent, as well as the support and full cooperation of Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi. No one can do it if they don't want to. You can imagine how difficult it is.

However, Huang Tianxuan is pregnant with Liujia after all. According to common sense, for the sake of the baby, there should be less resistance to her wedding with Mr. Li. Both Li Peifeng's parents and Zhao Qingge should be more willing to cooperate.

But if she, a pregnant woman, couldn't get it done, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying thought that their wedding would also be ruined. This was a bitter truth.

So in this matter, Wu and Xu's second daughter completely abandoned their prejudices, and even hoped that they could get married smoothly than the two parties involved!

But Zhao Qingge didn't want to, and immediately responded to Xu Manying's probing question: "Why did my parents go to Hangzhou? Why didn't I know about this?!"

Li Qiyuan, who was about to speak, was forced to swallow what he wanted to say by the phrase 'my parents'.

"Travel!"

Xu Manying smiled and said, "Didn't Peifeng tell you? The scenery is quite nice. After the new year, Man Ning and I plan to go and see Tianxuan. We haven't seen her for a few days... We still miss her." of."

These words were veiled, but the inner meaning was quite obvious.

As 'love rivals', we are all so concerned about Huang Tianxuan. How can you, as grandparents, be so cruel as to not see her pregnant with your son's child?

Yu Huizhi's brain crashed in embarrassment, and Li Qiyuan didn't know what to say.

"Eat well, let's talk about what happens next year, don't worry now."

Li Peifeng spoke out to resolve the embarrassment, but the atmosphere at the dinner table plummeted, and nothing could save it.

After the meal, Li Qiyuan found an opportunity to call Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge to the study, and said solemnly, "I'll talk to you about something."

Old Li didn't want to delay the trip to Hangzhou until next year to discuss it. He wanted to know Zhao Qingge's attitude now, otherwise he wouldn't have a good time this Spring Festival.

And Yu Huizhi accompanied Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying to chat in the living room, waiting for the final result of their conversation.

At the same time, the second daughter Wu and Xu are also doing homework for Yu Huizhi, tactfully persuading her to go to Hangzhou next year.

Yu Huizhi was also very helpless, she just said that it is possible to go, but there are too many practical problems, and then she pointed to the study room: "We will talk about it after they finish discussing."

This discussion can basically determine whether the two elders' trip to Hangzhou can be started. As long as they go to Hangzhou, Huang Tianxuan and Li Peifeng's marriage will be inseparable.

Going one step further, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying can use this to deduce whether their wedding with Li Peifeng will be held smoothly.

So this is destined to be an important conversation that affects the hearts of all parties. Wu Wenyue is very concerned about this, but also concerned about another trivial matter...

"Ah...Mom, I just saw the necklace and hairpin that Zhao Qingge is wearing today, they are really pretty!"

"..."

"But I haven't seen her wear it before. Have you seen it?" Wu Wenyue said in a soothing tone. Seeing the stiff expression on Yu Huizhi's face, she tentatively said: "It seems that you have seen it before, Mom?"

Xu Manying frowned, thinking about the jewelry on Zhao Qingge's body just now in his mind, he suddenly understood!

"It's from me, a New Year's gift."

Yu Huizhi sighed, admitted decisively, and then took out two prepared big red envelopes from the bag in the closet: "This is for you, mom, I'm just thinking about it."

It’s really just a little thought!

Give her a whole set of gold jewelry, and just this for us? What is this if not differential treatment?

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying looked at each other, feeling aggrieved, but neither said anything.

Yu Huizhi observed the expressions of the two of them, and suddenly said with a smile: "Hey, I know what you are thinking, in fact, you have it too, come and see."

After saying that, he took out his mobile phone in a calm manner, opened the photo album, and sketches of jewelry designs appeared one after another.

"This is?"

Facing the confused looks in Wu and Xu's eyes, Yu Huizhi explained: "I designed a set of gold jewelry for each of you. This is a picture I drew myself. It's just a part. You two haven't finished your part yet." , because Qing Ge is getting married, so I started working on her set first... Well, don’t worry, in a month or two, I will definitely be able to make your set of jewelry. You are welcome to have any ideas. Mention, I will design it according to your ideas."

"You really want to give these to us?"

"Of course!"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Wu Wenyue's face turned cloudy and sunny in an instant: "That's great, thank you Mom!"

Xu Manying also showed a smile and sent a series of rainbow farts such as 'Mom, your painting skills are great', 'Exceptionally strong sense of design', 'You are simply a genius jewelry designer'.

Seeing their smiling faces, Comrade Lao Yu felt relieved. There were too many daughters-in-law and a lot of troubles. Fortunately, she had the foresight and made preparations, otherwise she would have been uncomfortable at this time.

Although the second daughter Wu Xu has not received the gold ornaments yet, she has received Yu Huizhi's equal treatment and tactful statement, which is more important than any gift.

She and Li Qiyuan are of the same mind. If she thinks so, Li Qiyuan must also think so, so it seems that it is only a matter of time before the future marriage can be held.

Wu Wenyue, whose sense of security had skyrocketed, took the opportunity to push things along, and politely asked if the two families could sit together to discuss the wedding since she graduated in July this year.

Yu Huizhi thought for a moment and said slowly: "No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, but whether it can develop smoothly, I think the first thing to do is not to make the relationship too tense. This is the most important thing. You get along well." If we get along well, everything will be fine. If we don’t get along well, there is nothing we can do as elders.”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Manying and Wu Wenyue fell into silence, while Yu Huizhi said seriously: "Actually, the reason why I object to you and Fengfeng maintaining this relationship is not only because of practical factors or ethical issues, but also because it is really not in line with our views on... Love, the normal interpretation of feelings, I think you will definitely not be happy if you continue like this, and you will only make a lot of chicken feathers in the future, so I have to oppose it."

"If your parents know about this, their attitude will definitely be the same as mine at the beginning, even more intense. Because the hearts of parents all over the world are the same, they all want their children to live a good life. I am happy, can get all the good experiences on the road of life, and stay away from those wrong roads that fail or make children sad."

Wu Wenyue asked hesitantly: "Then what is your attitude now..."

Yu Huizhi sighed: "After such a long time, none of you shouted to break up and still insisted on your original choice. What can we say? What's the use if we say it?"

"And although this relationship does not conform to our understanding of feelings, love is your own quality, your own heart and soul... As long as you live a happy life, and go on unswervingly, be the elders' Even if you don’t understand it, you will gradually accept it.”

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying were thoughtful and seemed to be inspired by these words. They vaguely understood what methods they should use to overcome their parents' difficulties when the truth came out.

They were thinking far ahead, but the conversation next door didn't go well.

At first, Li Qiyuan really wanted to have a frank chat, but when his daughter-in-law and son actually sat down face to face, he felt guilty and didn't know how to speak, and was caught in the tangle of whether or not to help the villain.

However, during the ten seconds that Lao Li was silent, Li Peifeng communicated a lot with Zhao Qingge in his heart, and the latter expressed his position straight to the point.

"Dad, of course you and mom can go to Hangzhou if you want to. Tianxuan has been pregnant for so long, and you really should go and meet her and her family. I have no objection to this. But... Peifeng and I are still husband and wife. , and I have never had any intention of divorce. So I hope you will always remember this after meeting Tianxuan’s family."

Li Qiyuan was quite surprised when he heard the first half of the paragraph, but after listening to the whole paragraph, he showed an expected expression: "Of course, what are you doing to bring up the divorce? Fengfeng won't even bring it up. If he dares to bring it up, I will Beat him to death...Qing Ge, you can just raise your baby with peace of mind."

As smart as Lao Li, he has already heard the deeper meaning of Zhao Qingge's words.

Going to meet Huang Tianxuan’s parents? Can.

Get a marriage certificate? no way!

Zhao Qingge was still worried that Lao Li wouldn't understand, so he emphasized: "If Tianxuan's parents talk to you about their marriage, I suggest you ignore it. The best way is to explain that Peifeng is already a married man. Frankly, to prevent the situation from developing to an irreversible point, and not to let him make the same mistake again and again, otherwise the final scene will definitely be something no one wants to see..."

This is equivalent to a warning: "Don't say anything unforeseen."

What can Li Qiyuan say? He could only nod in agreement, act like an elder, and say some words of support and approval to make Zhao Qingge feel relieved.

But if Zhao Qingge's wishes were followed, how should the Li family explain to Huang Xuantian's parents after arriving in Hangzhou?

Does Li Qiyuan dare to confess the truth about his son? If he didn't confess, how could he refuse to discuss marriage with the Huang family?

It doesn't matter, I'm not the scumbag who wants to marry four wives anyway, my son will take action!

Li Qiyuan chose to lie down and die, but Li Peifeng, the person involved, remained silent, as if he also chose to lie down, but his inner activities were not what outsiders could understand.

I will take action, but not now!

The two of them had communicated a lot in their hearts just now, and Li Peifeng knew clearly that this was the biggest concession that Zhao Qingge could make at the moment. In other words, her agreement to allow the two elders to go to Hangzhou was the final bottom line.

Further bargaining in front of Li Qiyuan will have no effect except completely irritating Zhao Qingge. It is still early for the second marriage or even the third and fourth marriages. As long as the parents go to Hangzhou, everything will have room for relaxation.

Even if you secretly settled the matter with Tianxuan in Hangzhou, it wouldn't be too late to do Zhao Qingge's ideological work later?

Li Peifeng, who will turn 25 in less than three days, is still young. He is still optimistic and confident about the future. Even if Zhao Qingge's resolute opposition has caused the five-in-one Great Consummation to stagnate, he does not feel that all is lost. .

In many cases, things that go against your wishes are not the result, it is just a process. If you persist a little longer, what you want may be on the way not far away. Even if persistence leads to a worse situation, hope cannot be completely lost.

Only with thorough persistence can life truly bloom!

"It's going well with me. Wife, you can take care of your baby with peace of mind. We can go to Hangzhou to see you in the second grade of junior high school."

With this mentality, Li Peifeng quietly initiated a 'telegram' to Huang Tianxuan in his heart before the conversation ended.

So far, Huang Tianxuan's pregnancy has reached 30 weeks. At the 28th week, at the strong request of her parents, she asked for leave from her tutor and returned to her hometown in Hangzhou to prepare for pregnancy. The two have been apart for half a month, and during this time they keep in touch every day by virtue of their closeness.

It should be that the relationship and bond between each other has become deeper, or that Li Peifeng has communicated with them sincerely for a long time, and his proficiency has become higher, so that this skill has undergone some more subtle changes.

Now Li Peifeng can not only one-to-one, but also one-to-many at the same time. Just like setting up a chat room, several girls can be brought in to communicate telepathically together. The maximum number of people connected can reach five.

But this method of communication is too advanced. The thoughts of several people appear at the same time, and it is difficult to tell who is who, and who is talking to them. After a little time, even the consciousness of 'self' may be a little blurred.

Li Peifeng conducted an experiment once, and the participants all gave negative reviews with palpitations and warned him not to use it again.

Another skill change is that the degree of matching is higher, communication is more comfortable and comfortable, and the thoughts and experiences felt are more nuanced.

For example, right now, the nerve signals of two people span a distance of three thousand miles from Ningyuan to Hangzhou. They are intertwined and transmitted in each other's minds. Countless electrical signals form different pictures. A person's thoughts, ideas, pictures, and even visions are all different. The five senses of hearing, smelling, tasting, and touching can accurately appear in another person's mind... In this case, the longing in a long-distance relationship is also reduced a lot.

Even if one of us is at the end of the world and the other is at the end of the world, we can all feel each other's presence in our hearts and have real and genuine communication anytime and anywhere, so there won't be questions like 'what is he doing' or 'does he still love me'? 'Wait for distracting thoughts.

What Huang Tianxuan is more concerned about is whether Li Peifeng can meet her parents with her elders as planned after the New Year.

So when she heard Li Peifeng's "telegram" while watching a drama and eating fruit at home, she asked with joy and disbelief;

"Are you sure? Both uncle and aunt can come?"

"My dad will definitely go, but my mom won't necessarily. Yilan is only two months old and is not suitable for traveling far away. She still needs someone to take care of her."

"That doesn't matter, as long as uncle can come."

Huang Tianxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then 'saw' the scene where Zhao Qingge and Li Qiyuan were talking next to Li Peifeng, and she had some doubts and worries: "Old Zhao doesn't seem to be willing yet. You can do more work. After all, she is just pregnant." , she’s not too young anymore...you have to pay more attention, if she gets angry and causes problems, don’t blame me then."

She is so gentle and considers me!

Li Peifeng was quite moved and told Huang Tianxuan not to worry about it. He would arrange everything. After the conversation was over, everyone came out of the study. He also conveyed to Wu and Xu, who were very concerned about the matter, "Everything goes well." ” similar information.

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying were dubious about this, because although Mr. Li sent a message to them in private, he was peeling sugar oranges for Zhao Qingge openly.

But after eavesdropping on the conversation between Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi in the bedroom, and learning that the trip to Hangzhou was settled, Wu and Xu really believed it, and their dissatisfaction disappeared.

"Husband, how about I go to Hangzhou with you?"

"Then...what should I do with Lan?"

"Leave it to my sister to take care of you temporarily for two days. It doesn't matter if you leave early and come back early. Moreover, Fengfeng got pregnant before we were married. Huang's parents and Huang's mother may be angry. You go and I don't go. It seems disrespectful... Oh, say After all, it’s us who are at fault.”

Well, it would be better if two people go together!

Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying listened at the door for a long time. After learning all the contents of the conversation in the study, they walked back to the living room quietly and tactfully tested Zhao Qingge's attitude towards the two elders going to Hangzhou together.

But Zhao Qingge didn't say a word as if he didn't understand.

Wu Wenyue frowned slightly and went straight to the point: "What are you going to do if your uncle and aunt go to Hangzhou and hide the information due to the situation and make a marriage agreement with the Huang family?"

Zhao Qingge was silent for a moment and said calmly: "You don't want to know."

His eyes swept across Li Peifeng's face, and then he looked at Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying. Seeing that they were still asking more questions, he interrupted a little impatiently: "No matter what, this matter has nothing to do with you, and now the meal is not After eating, can you two go back to your homes to celebrate the festival?"

Xu Manying looked at Zhao Qingge's two cherry lips thoughtfully, and then whispered to Wu Wenyue: "Do you think she is being harsh or cruel?"

Wu Wenyue frowned slightly: "I don't think even she knows the answer."

Xu Manying raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Li Peifeng, wanting to know Zhao Qingge's true state of mind from him.

Li Peifeng just smiled and said vaguely: "Ah, yes, yes, there is no need to think so much. The most important thing right now is to have a good New Year!"
