Reciprocity has always been a traditional virtue. When relatives come to visit the family, the host will not only give them a warm reception, but even if they don't welcome them in their heart, at least they will do some kindness on the surface.

This was the first time that Li Xuehao encountered such an indifferent host. It was no different from treating a stranger—no, even worse than a stranger.

He followed the housekeeper out of the living room and walked up the steps to the second floor.

"Madam has been in a bad mood because of problems in the company during this period." The housekeeper said in a low voice, as if she was afraid of being heard by the madam in the living room.

Li Xuehao didn't speak. Although the housekeeper was trying to make amends for her master, the impression that the lady had just given him had already been formed and was unlikely to change because of her words.

The housekeeper probably realized that what she said had no effect, so she just stopped talking.

Leading the person to the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor, she knocked on the door. After getting a response from inside, she carefully turned the handle and pushed the door open.

"Mrs. Xingai, your nephew came to see you from Japan." The housekeeper finished her words respectfully, bowed, and exited.

"My nephew?" The people in the room were startled at first, and then there was a voice of surprise, "Is it Keiichi? Keiichi came to Korea?"

Li Xuehao walked in after the housekeeper exited, and gently closed the door.

"Are you Keiichi?" In the room, the woman who was half leaning on the bed looked at him in surprise. Although she was about the same height, her appearance seemed to be different.

"Hello, Auntie Yuki, I am Koji Manaka." Li Xuehao said in Japanese. The woman on the bed was pale. Although she looked a bit ordinary, she had a graceful temperament. She was Fukuoka Naomi's cousin, Yuki Kiriyama. . In addition, there were two little girls beside the bed, one was seven or eight years old, and the other was four or five years old, both looking at him curiously.

"Manaka..." Kiriyama Kouai's eyes became even more confused. Is there any relative with this surname that I have never met?

"Naomi and Aunt Zuowazi asked me to come to visit you." Li Xuehao explained.

"Naomi, Sawako!" Kiriyama Yua's eyes lit up. These two names were too familiar to her, but she was even more curious about the identity of the boy in front of her. He was not Keiichi, but he knew Sawako and Naomi.

"Actually... I am Naomi's lover." Li Xuehao was a little embarrassed to introduce himself in this way. Seriously speaking, without marrying Naomi Fukuoka, he had no relationship with this aunt Xingai.

"Naomi's lover?" Sure enough, after hearing his identity, Kiriyama Yuki's eyes revealed a hint of weirdness, but it was quickly replaced by surprise, "We haven't seen each other for three years, and Naomi has already started dating that little girl. Is that so? That’s a girl who is on fire inside but very cold on the outside. "

"That's what you said." Li Xuehao echoed, Fukuoka Naomi is indeed very cold.

"Is Sawako okay?" Perhaps because he had confirmed his identity, Kiriyama Yua saw that he had already looked at his younger generation with a look in his eyes.

"Aunt Zuo Hezi is in good health." Li Xuehao said respectfully.

"That's good. I haven't called her for a few months. She must be worried." At this point, a look of misery flashed across Kiriyama Yuki's face.

"Auntie Xing'ai, it's just a phone call. You can call anytime." Li Xuehao didn't think she was so sick that she couldn't even make a phone call, but why not make a phone call in person.

"My mother-in-law said that my health is not good and I should stay away from electronic products." Kiriyama Yuki shook her head helplessly.

Stay away from electronic products? Li Xuehao's eyes froze when he heard this. Doesn't that mean that no contact with mobile phones or anything else is allowed? No wonder there wasn't even a TV in the room. There were only a few books piled on the bed. That was the only way to pass the time. What was the difference between it and being in jail?

"Ah, I forgot to introduce." Kiriyama Yuki seemed not to want to mention unpleasant things, pointing to the two little girls beside the bed and introducing, "These are my two children, my third daughter Shuhui, and my youngest daughter Shuzhen. .”

"Hello." Li Xuehao smiled and greeted the two little girls in Korean.

The two little girls were a little shy and leaned against the bed, but they seemed to want to get close to him. It was just because they were meeting for the first time, so they seemed shy.

"Can you still speak Korean?" Kiriyama Yuki was surprised. Although it was just an ordinary greeting, it was very standard and proficient.

"Yes." Li Xuehao nodded, looked at her pale face, and turned back to Japanese, "Aunt Xingai, your health seems not to be very good."

"It doesn't matter, I just have a little cold." Kiriyama Yuai waved his hand.

Li Xuehao didn't think so. Even if he had a cold, his face would not be so pale. Instead, it would be a bit like... a sign of mild poisoning.

"Auntie Xing'ai, I know a little bit about Chinese medicine and can help you take your pulse."

"Oh? Do you know how to practice Chinese medicine?" Kiriyama Yuaki was surprised. This young man who claimed to be her nephew was really versatile. She said half-jokingly, "Let's see." In fact, she didn't have any expectations. , is to fulfill the hobbies of the younger generation.

Li Xuehao walked over and put his fingers on her wrist under the curious eyes of the two little girls. After a while, he had a general understanding of her body. It was indeed poisoned, and the toxin was not formed in a day or two. It is accumulated over many years.

"Auntie Xing'ai, what do you usually eat?" Li Xuehao let go and asked. Most likely, the poison came in through the mouth, which made him have a malicious suspicion. Could it be that her mother-in-law wanted to To poison her daughter-in-law so that her son can marry another helper to have grandchildren?

But after thinking about it carefully, I found it impossible. Although the lady was indifferent to guests, she didn't look like such a sinister person, at least he didn't notice it just now.

"Just ordinary meals, fruits and the like." Kiriyama Yukiai said.

"Besides these, is there anything else?" Li Xuehao asked.

"There are also some supplements to regulate the body." Kiriyama Yuai answered patiently.

"Supplements?" Li Xuehao frowned. Taking supplements will not cause poisoning unless there are toxins in the supplements themselves.

While he was deep in thought, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, and then the door was pushed open. The person who came didn't even have the etiquette of knocking on the door.

"Mom, I'm back." The person who walked directly in was a fourteen-year-old girl, wearing a tight-fitting dance practice suit and a coat around her waist. His appearance is not very delicate, but he has the youthful vitality unique to this age group.

"Shujia, you are still so reckless. You have to knock on the door before coming in." Kiriyama Yukiai slightly expressed his dissatisfaction.

"Hehe, what does it matter? You are my dearest mother." The girl said while licking her face and looking at the strange boy in the room. She seemed not surprised at all by his existence. She obviously knew it before he came in. Mom has a guest here.

"Shujia, let me introduce you. This is Koji who is visiting me from Japan. You have to call me brother." Kiriyama Yugai introduced him first.

"Oppa?" The girl looked at someone suspiciously.

"This is my second daughter, Shujia." Kiriyama Yuki introduced her daughter.

"Hello." Li Xuehao nodded to the girl.

The girl looked at him for a while, then gestured to his chest with the top of her head: "You are so tall!"

Li Xuehao smiled. At nearly 1.9 meters, he was indeed among the tallest men. The other party was just over 1.6 meters tall, nearly 30 centimeters shorter than him.

"No manners at all." Kiriyama Yuki scolded her on the bed, but it could be heard from her words that there was more of a doting element.

"Hee hee." The girl didn't care at all. She was obviously used to her mother's attitude of laughing and scolding. She lowered her head and looked at her youngest sister, "Shu Zhen, have you been good today?"

"I'm very well-behaved." Little Shuzhen seemed very shy and afraid of strangers because of the presence of outsiders.

"Very good, I'll reward you with a candy." The girl took out a beautifully wrapped candy from the pocket around her waist and handed it to the youngest sister, while the other sister watched eagerly.

"Haha, Shuhui, you have one too." The girl laughed, and like a magic trick, she conjured another candy with the same exquisite packaging.

"Thank you, sister." Seven or eight-year-old Shuhui took it over excitedly.

The two little girls couldn't wait to open the wrapping paper and put the candy into their mouths. The sweet taste made them squint their eyes.

"Grandma, didn't you see it?" Kiriyama Yukiai on the bed looked at her three daughters with a gentle look on her face.

"Don't worry, Mom." The girl said firmly, "Grandma doesn't like us eating sweets the most, and I won't let her see it."

Even the children were restricted from eating snacks. Li Xuehao had a new understanding of the lady. No wonder the two little girls showed such happy expressions when they ate the candy.

"Dong dong." There was a knock on the door suddenly.

The two little girls who were eating candy were so frightened that their bodies trembled. The girl reacted first and asked the two little girls to turn around. She blocked them.

On the bed, Kiriyama Yukiai saw that he had covered up, and then he said to the outside: "Please come in."

The housekeeper came in, carrying a large bowl of steaming and fragrant soup, and said humbly: "Mrs. Xingai, your soup is here."

"Let it go." Kiriyama Kouai nodded.

"Okay." The housekeeper carefully placed the soup on the table beside the bed, glanced at the three strange sisters, and withdrew with a hint of understanding in her eyes.

"Fortunately, fortunately, Miss Wenji didn't see it." The girl let go of her two sisters and patted her chest.

"Sometimes, ignorance is also a kind of happiness." Kiriyama Yuki looked at her daughter. The housekeeper Wenji actually knew what they were doing, but she never told her mother-in-law.

"Mom, do you want to drink this soup again?" The girl pointed to the soup on the table, covered her nose and walked away for a while. It seemed that she was not too cold about the aroma of the soup, maybe she had smelled it too much.

"This is your grandma's concern for me." Kiriyama Yukiai said.

"I always take tonic soup, but my body doesn't feel better." The girl muttered.

Li Xuehao felt something in his heart when he heard it: "Auntie Xingai, can I take a look first?"

"Yes." Kiriyama Yuaki didn't have any other ideas. Although she was a little surprised by such a request, she would not refuse.

Li Xuehao picked up the bowl of soup. The girl and the two little girls looked at him curiously, not understanding what he was going to do.

Ginseng, wolfberry, jujube, Atractylodes... and bamboo shoots, chicken, ribs and other ingredients are stewed together. The heat is obviously enough, and the fragrance can definitely arouse people's appetite, but the four mother and daughter present probably smell it often. So they didn't have any special expressions, but were vaguely resisting this fragrance.

From the outside, this bowl of soup is indeed a nourishing medicinal meal, but you have to taste it for yourself as to what else is inside.

Li Xuehao picked up the spoon and took a small taste in front of the mother and daughter.

The girl and the two little girls next to her were all wide-eyed. What was Oppa doing? He was secretly drinking his mother's supplements.

Kiriyama Yuki was also surprised, but she knew very well that the boy didn't take her supplements because he was greedy, he probably had some purpose.
