Li Ao completed the jigsaw puzzle, and carried the completed puzzle around the room looking for his father. When he found that his father was taking a bath, Li Ao stood outside the bathroom door and knocked gently on the door.
"dad!"
Hearing Li Ao's voice, the movement in the bathroom suddenly stopped.
Li Ao didn't know that he had interrupted his parents' good business, he raised his head, and said loudly to the bathroom door with an innocent face: "Father, I've finished the fight, do you want to take a look?"
Su Beibei was a little nervous, her body tensed up suddenly.
Li Li noticed Su Beibei's reaction, he patted Su Beibei's head lightly, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, don't be nervous." After comforting Su Beibei, Li Li answered Li Ao loudly, "Come check it later, you Let's watch TV for a while, okay?"
Li Ao tilted his head and asked again: "Are you taking a bath?"
"Um."
"What about mom?"
Li Li saw that Su Beibei's cheeks turned red all of a sudden, he secretly thought it was funny. "Your mother is taking a bath too."
The world of two-year-old children is not as complicated as that of adults. In their eyes, taking a bath is taking a bath, simply soaking in water and taking a bath. "Okay, I'll come to you after you take a shower."
Li Ao turned around and walked out of the master bedroom with the puzzle in his arms. Li Li listened carefully, making sure that Li Ao had gone out, then lowered his head and bit Su Beibei's earlobe, "Okay, you are allowed to speak."
Li Li let go of his right hand covering Su Beibei's lips, Su Beibei immediately turned her head and gave him a reproachful look, "It's broad daylight, Auntie and Neil are both here, what do you think?"
Li Li touched her maliciously, causing Su Beibei to hum softly.
Li Li laughed, "I miss you so much."
Su Beibei looked at the smile on his lips, and her scarred heart was gradually repaired. Leaning in Li Li's arms, she bit her lip and said, "Put harder."
Li Li hugged her tightly, "Be patient."
Li Ao waited for more than fifty minutes.
Li Li and Su Beibei took a brief shower and changed into clean clothes before he walked out of the master bedroom and went to the living room to accompany Li Ao.
Li Ao stuffed the puzzle into Li Li's arms, "Dad, look, I've finished it."
Li Li stared at the dinosaur jigsaw puzzle in his hand, with a smile on his lips. "That's pretty cool, Neil."
"My mother bought me a lot of jigsaw puzzles, and I put them together every night." Li Ao is very fond of jigsaw puzzles, and can often sit on the carpet in his room and play for an hour or two.
Li Ao asked again: "Father, are you going to the zoo this afternoon?" Li Ao had been looking forward to going to the zoo for several months.
Li Li nodded, scratched Li Ao's nose lightly, and said, "What animal do you want to see?"
"Lion, Panda, Elephant, Flamingo" Li Ao recited the names of more than ten animals in one breath.
"Okay, Dad will take you to see the animals this afternoon." After Li Li finished speaking, he looked up and saw Su Beibei walking out of the room. She changed into a golden suspender dress, her slim body was wrapped in a thin layer of fabric, her front was convex and her back was curled up, everything was perfect and just right.
Obviously just tasted the beauty of that body just now, seeing Su Beibei now, Li Li felt hungry again.
Seeing his father staring at his mother all the time, Li Ao hurriedly held his father's face and taught Li Li seriously: "Mom said that a man who always stares at girls is a pervert!"
"Pfft!" Su Beibei couldn't help laughing, and reached out to rub Li Ao's head. "You are the only one who is smart!"
Li Ao stuck out his tongue.
Li Li asked Su Beibei: "Did you tell him?"
Su Beibei sat down on the single sofa with a book in her hand. Her legs were crossed, and her slender and beautiful calves were exposed from the bottom of her skirt. Li Li thought of the feeling of him holding those legs and bowing his head to kiss them just now, so he quietly swallowed his saliva. It's also strange, after being married for three years, every part of Su Beibei's body still has a fatal allure to him.
He was going to die on this woman for the rest of his life.
When Su Beibei heard Li Li's question, she said, "Then are you a pervert?" Before Li Li could answer, Li Ao shouted loudly, "Daddy is a pervert!"
"Look, your two-year-old son knows that."
Li Li had nothing to say. He held his son in his arms, pinched his son's petite earlobe with his hands, and told him: "When you grow up, you will become a little pervert."
"I won't!"
The father and son hugged and watched TV, while Su Beibei looked down at the book. Hearing the laughter of father and son, Su Beibei occasionally looked up at them. Seeing the happy scene of father and son hugging each other, Su Beibei felt satisfied again.
The aunt finished the meal and brought it over. "Ma'am, Mr. Li, it's time to eat. Neil, come here, auntie will take you to wash your hands." Li Ao slid down from the sofa, and went to wash his hands with his auntie.
Su Beibei got up and walked towards the dining table, and when she walked past Li Li, Li Li hugged her waist. Li Li pulled his head into his arms, leaned close to her face, and praised in a low voice: "You look good in what you're wearing today."
Su Beibei asked him: "Then go to the zoo dressed like this, what do you think?"
Li Li's cheeks suddenly smelled bad.
"no."
This skirt outlines the figure too much, it looks like it's not worn, but it makes people reluctant to look away. Li Li allowed Su Beibei to wear it for him to see at home, but forbade her to spread it out to be seen by others.
Su Beibei sneered, "Smelly man."
After the meal, under Li Li's strong request, Su Beibei was forced to change into a light blue A-line dress with a narrow waist, and tied up her slightly curly long hair.
Finally able to go to the zoo, Li Ao was very happy. On the way to the zoo, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep, he was chatting all the way.
Later, the car got on the highway and drove smoothly all the way, Li Ao finally couldn't resist the drowsiness, sat on the child safety seat and fell asleep deeply, and even let out a hail.
The car circled half a circle in the parking lot before finding a parking space. Su Beibei was carrying a small backpack, Li Li picked up Li Ao who was still asleep, and the family went to check the tickets and entered the zoo smoothly.
The temperature in Wangdong City in late summer has begun to cool down, but it is still hot at noon, but it cannot resist the enthusiasm of tourists. There were huge crowds of people, it was very lively, Li Ao woke up very much.
"Dad, Dad, I want to see pandas!" Li Ao has longed for pandas for a long time.
"Okay, let's go to the panda house first."
Wangdongcheng Wildlife Park is the largest wild animal park in China. There are more than 500 kinds of animals in the park, including those that fly in the sky, those that run on the ground, and those that swim in the water.
There are 12 pandas in the panda house. When Su Beibei and the others entered the panda house, three pandas were sleeping and the rest were eating bamboo.
There were quite a lot of people in the panda house, Li Ao disliked the poor view, so he leaned into Li Li's ear and said, "Daddy, carry me on your back, high back."
Li Li hurriedly carried Li Ao on his shoulders, and Li Ao held Li Li's ears with both hands. When he saw the simple and honest giant panda, he shouted excitedly, "Giant panda! Mom, look, it's a panda!"
Su Beibei quickly raised her finger to her lips, and told Li Ao, "Shh, Neil, be quiet, don't scare the giant panda."
Li Ao quickly shut his mouth, for fear of waking up the sleeping panda.
After visiting the Panda House, they went to the Elephant Base and Giraffe Paradise
It was getting dark, and they still had half of the projects that they hadn't visited. Li Ao didn't want to go back yet, so he asked Li Li: "Father, can we stay here tonight? Let's play another day tomorrow."
Su Beibei didn't speak, just looked at Li Li silently. Li Li looked at Su Beibei, then at Li Ao, and agreed. "Okay, we'll stay here tonight."
The three ordered a panda-themed suite online, and when they arrived at the hotel, Li Ao was attracted by the panda figures. He took Su Beibei's hand and said, "Mom, let's take a picture and send it to Miaomiao and the others!"
"good."
Li Ao took Su Beibei to take pictures in the hotel, Li Li walked with them for a while, and then received a call from the hospital.
"I'll take a call." Li Li told Su Beibei.
Su Beibei asked, "Who is calling?"
Li Li was very honest, he said, "It's a hospital."
Su Beibei nodded without saying anything, and pulled Li Ao away.
Li Li walked to a quiet corner and asked in a low voice, "Hello."
The caller was the nurse Li Li hired for his mother, and the nurse asked, "Hello, is this Mr. Li?"
"Hello, I am, how is my mother today?"
The nurse told Li Li: "I still have a good appetite today. She drank some soup and ate some porridge, but she didn't want me to wash her body and insisted on doing it by herself. Mr. Li, no matter what I say, she just refuses."
Li's mother is the older generation who can't let go, and she refuses to let strangers wash and change her clothes, so she is making trouble. Feeling helpless, Li Li pressed the center of his eyebrows with his hand, and then said to the nurse, "Give the phone to my mother."
The nurse said to Li's mother, "Auntie, I will let your son talk to you."
Li's mother took the phone and held it to her ear. Before Li could leave her mouth, she asked, "Ah Li, when are you coming over from get off work? I'll wait for you."
"Mom, I can't come today because I have something to do. Didn't I hire a nurse for you? She is professional and has experience in taking care of people."
Hearing this, Li's mother felt aggrieved in her heart, and said in a low voice: "Well, I'm not familiar with her, so I asked her to bathe and change my clothes for the first time we met, I"
Li Li didn't speak.
Li's mother noticed her son's silence, she was silent for a moment, and asked again: "Are you working overtime?"
Li Li: "Well, I haven't been working for several days, and the documents are piled up, so I can't spare time today. I'll see you tomorrow."
Knowing that her son was busy with work, Li's mother could understand, she said: "Then, I won't take a shower today, and I'll wait for you to come over tomorrow." Before Li's mother could finish her sentence, Li Li interrupted her.
He said, "Mom, I'm your son, but I'm also a grown man. Do you think it's okay for me to wash and change your clothes?"
Li's mother didn't think it was a big deal, and subconsciously said, "You are my son, a piece of flesh that fell from my body, what's the point?"
When the nurse heard this, she raised her eyelids and glanced at Li's mother, thinking that this mother couldn't figure it out.
Li Li only felt that his head was big. "I'm a piece of meat that fell off your body, it's true, but I'm also an adult man. You were lying on the bed a few days ago and couldn't move. I don't worry about you. I should scrub your back, wash your feet and change your clothes. This is what I should do. But now I have found professional female nurses for you, all of them are women, what are you embarrassed about?"
"You asked me to come, I'm still embarrassed!" Li Li was angry and angry, and his tone was inevitably a bit serious.
Li's mother was taken aback by Li Li's yelling.
She was stunned for a moment, tears streaming down her face, and asked Li Li with a trembling voice: "Do you despise me? Li Li, do you despise me? Oh! You found a young and good-looking vixen, and you despise me as a mother." Old and ugly, isn’t it? I’m lying in bed and can’t take care of myself, and you don’t want to take a bath for me?”
It was only a few days after Li's mother had the operation, and the wound on her head hadn't healed yet, so her head started to hurt again after talking like this. She scolded in a hoarse voice: "Li Li, you really got your conscience eaten by that vixen!"
"Mom!" Li Li was furious, and shouted at Li's mother: "What do you seem to be talking about! Beibei is my wife, you keep your mouth shut, what do you think of me? What do you think of your grandson Li Ao!"
Li's mother was so angry that she hung up the phone directly, refusing to say anything more to Li Li.
She threw the phone on the ground, crying and said: "You little heartless, if you have a vixen, you don't want me as a mother. If you see too many young women's bodies, you despise me, an old woman. What's the big deal, that vixen has changed. A day to get old and ugly!"
Female nurse: "."
She picked up the mobile phone on the ground, checked the screen, saw that the mobile phone was not broken, and then put the mobile phone back into her pocket.
The nurse looked at Li's mother with disdain, and couldn't help but say something fair: "Auntie, please don't say a few words, she is your daughter-in-law, if you say that about your daughter-in-law, you are stepping on your son's face! "
Mother Li glared at the nurse, "What do you know, that woman is a vixen, she knows how to smoke, drink and hook up with men every day."
The female nurse shook her head and said, "You are so energetic, you don't breathe when you speak, I don't think you need to be hospitalized, you can be discharged directly." After finishing speaking, the female nurse turned around and left, wondering if she would Lost job.
She didn't even bother to serve such an old woman who couldn't figure it out.
After Li's mother hung up the phone, Li Li also feigned anger in his heart. He kicked on the wall of the hotel, but he couldn't vent his anger.
Su Beibei's voice suddenly sounded behind him: "What did the hospital say?"
Li Li wiped his face, then turned his head and smiled at Su Beibei, "It's nothing, I just reported my mother's physical condition to me."
Su Beibei asked him, "How is she today?"
"fine."
Li Li stretched out his hands towards Li Ao in Su Beibei's arms, and said, "Come on, Neil, give me a hug from Dad."
"Um."
Li Ao was carried back to the room by Li Li, Li Li went to take a bath, and Li Ao was checking the photos his mother took for him. He said: "This one, this one, and these two are all good-looking, mom, send them to Miaomiao and the others, okay?"
"good."
Su Beibei simply added a filter to those pictures and sent them to Moments. Sitting next to Su Beibei, Li Ao asked her, "Did Miaomiao and the others see it?"
"Not yet, you go take a shower first, and you will receive a reply from Miaomiao later."
"good!"
Li Ao stripped off and went into the bathroom, taking a shower with Li Li. After taking a shower, Li Ao asked again: "Did Miaomiao look for you?"
Su Beibei shook her phone and said, "Miaomiao asked where you are, did you see the koala?"
Li Ao snatched Su Beibei's phone, found Song Ci's WeChat avatar, and made a video call directly to Song Ci.
Song Ci took the video and saw that Li Ao was playing Su Beibei's WeChat, she asked Li Ao, "Neil, did you go to the zoo with your parents today?"
Li Ao smiled sweetly and said, "Auntie Song Song, I saw pandas and elephants today." Li Ao talked for a long time before asking Song Ci, "Where is Miaomiao Junjun?"
"Wait, Auntie will go find them."
The sisters also just got out of the shower and are playing with toys on the carpet in their room.
Song Ci fixed the phone on the ground, and Miaomiao and Junjun appeared in the camera. Miaomiao squatted in front of the phone and asked Li Ao, "Have you eaten the sausage today? The sausage is delicious." Han Miao was very impressed with the sausage at the zoo.
Li Ao didn't eat it, but lied, saying, "I have, I ate three."
Han Miao: "Wow! Have you ever eaten that ice cream? It's blueberry flavored."
Li Ao continued to lie: "Yes, I prefer vanilla."
Han Miao: "Wow!"
Su Beibei was not interested in their chatting with the little ones, so she took her bathrobe to take a bath. When she came out of the shower, she found Li Li smoking. She walked over to put out Li Li's cigarette, and said, "Neil is in the room, what are you smoking?"
Li Li hurriedly threw the cigarette into the ashtray, he patted his thigh, "Come, let me give you a hug."
Su Beibei sat down on Li Li's lap.
Li Li held her in his arms, and Su Beibei heard the dull heartbeat of the man. "Do you have something on your mind?"
Li Li said, "I'm thinking about my mother."
Su Beibei fell silent.
"Bebe."
"Um."
Li Li licked his lips, and said hesitantly: "My mother fell this time and fell to the ground and passed out all night. This time she was lucky enough to save her life. If something like this happens next time..." Li Li Before he finished speaking, he believed that Su Beibei could understand what he meant.
They couldn't escape this matter, Li Li didn't mention it today, and when Li's mother was discharged from the hospital, this matter still had to be brought up for discussion. Su Beibei asked him, "What do you want to do?"
Li Li said: "I'm thinking, should we take her over and live with us? In this way, there is also a support." Li Li was very disturbed in his heart, he knew that his proposal was a fucking one, but there was nothing he could do about it.
He only has such a mother, and his mother has indeed devoted her whole life to him. He knows in his heart that his mother is incomprehensible, but he can't really let her go.
Without his mother, there would be no him.
Su Beibei sat up from his arms, she took a deep look at Li Li, and asked with a serious expression: "You want to take her to live with us, of course I can't refuse. But Li Li, are you sure you can Can you handle the conflict between us?"
Li Li subconsciously said, "I will handle it well."
Su Beibei stretched out her hand to interrupt him, and she said: "Think about it, if you can't handle our conflicts well, we will quarrel and quarrel when we live together in the future. If there are more conflicts, our relationship will naturally have problems. At that time, A home can be broken like that."
"Li Li, tell me after you think it through."
Naturally, Su Beibei would not be so stupid as to reject Li Li's proposal. He is Li's mother's own son, so he naturally loves his mother deeply in his heart. If Su Beibei refused straight away, then if Li's mother really had troubles in the future, then Li Li would blame Su Beibei for all the faults.
That way, their marriage would still have problems.
Su Beibei kicked this multiple-choice question to Li Li like kicking a football. Li Li suddenly felt a headache, he pressed his temple, and sighed: "Tell me, why is my mother so paranoid? It is obvious that my father is guilty!"
Su Beibei couldn't give Li Li an answer, she got up from his arms, carried Li Ao to the crib together.
Li Ao fell asleep quickly, and it was only ten o'clock, but neither Su Beibei nor Li Li could fall asleep. If it was in the past, they would definitely go to bed and do some exercise at this time, but tonight neither of them was interested.
Su Beibei lay on the bed, as if falling asleep.
After a while, Li Li lay down beside her. Li Li put his arms around Su Beibei's shoulders from behind, and said, "Your birthday is coming, what do you want to do this year? I was too busy with work last year, so I couldn't accompany you."
On Su Beibei's birthday last year, Li Li went on a business trip, but gifts and flowers were still delivered. Su Beibei had something on her mind, so she couldn't be interested in the birthday, so she didn't say a word.
Li Li said, "Let's go and see the stars, shall we?"
Hearing this, Su Beibei couldn't help but think of the night before they got married that they went to the mountains to watch the stars. It was also on that day that they had their first encounter in the tent.
Su Beibei understood Li Li's thoughts, he was trying to curry favor with her.
Su Beibei's heart softened again, and she said, "All right."
The atmosphere between the two became more relaxed. Li Li couldn't help but kiss Su Beibei's neck. After kissing for a while, he suddenly said, "Do you want a second child?"
Su Beibei's eyes widened.
She thought of those terrible experiences when she was pregnant with Li Ao, and shook her head violently, "I don't want it."
Seeing her change of expression, Li Li guessed that she was thinking of some unpleasant things, and he was also a little resentful. Li Li said: "It seems like yesterday that you gave birth to Neil. That time you narrowly escaped death, I was so scared that my legs went limp. It doesn't matter if you don't give birth, I just want you to be well."
Thinking of what happened on the day Neil was born, Li Li was frightened and subconsciously hugged Su Beibei tightly.
Su Beibei patted his arm and said, "Go to sleep."
Li Li rubbed her body against her, and said, "It's still early, don't rush to sleep." He turned off all the lights in the room, leaving only one wall lamp.
Stretching his hand into Su Beibei's skirt, Li Li kissed Su Beibei's earlobe and neck all the way up. Feeling Su Beibei trembling in his arms, Li Li's body temperature rose, and he quickly turned over and pressed on him.
-
The next afternoon, the family headed home.
After visiting the zoo for a day, the three of them felt tired when they got home. Li Ao went to bed after dinner, and Su Beibei was also tired.
Seeing that Li Li had changed his clothes, as if he was about to go out, she asked him, "Are you going to the hospital?"
Li Li nodded, "Well, I didn't go yesterday, so I have to go and see today anyway." Seeing that Su Beibei was staring at him, Li Li felt a little uncomfortable, so he asked, "Why don't you go with me?"
Su Beibei shook her head, "Forget it, if she saw me, she might be so angry that her blood pressure would rise."
Li Li felt sorry for Su Beibei.
He sat on the edge of the bed, held Su Beibei's hand, and said sincerely and guiltily, "I feel sorry for you. I promised you a happy family before marriage, but now"
Li Li laughed at himself and said, "It's just a mess."
Su Beibei could feel Li Li's apology, and she also felt uncomfortable. She said: "A Li, you know, as long as you still love me and think of me, I can bear these grievances."
Li Li nodded and promised: "I will always stand by your side and protect you." He lowered his head and kissed Su Beibei's finger, and whispered: "I'm sorry, that's my mother, I can't ignore her. "
Su Beibei nodded, "Go."
"Well, then I'll go."
Li Li left, but Su Beibei didn't feel sleepy anymore. She went to the study room, opened the file, stared at the new novel she had just written, and was in a daze for a while.
She sat in front of the computer for a while before putting her hands on the keyboard and starting to code.
No one disturbed her. Su Beibei was inspired and wrote more than 5,000 words in two hours. She was a little tired, took off her glasses, stood up and stretched herself, and then turned off the computer.
Su Beibei was going to have a cup of tea. She went to the kitchen to boil water. She was bored waiting for the water to boil, so she opened WeChat. Su Beibei just realized that an hour ago, Cong Nuo sent her a voice message.
Cong Nuo spoke English, he said: [Bei'er, I gave you a birthday present, did you receive it?]
Su Beibei was a little puzzled, and she replied to the other party by voice: [kid, did you give me a gift? what is it]
As soon as Su Beibei sent the message, Cong Nuo replied, and it seemed that she had been waiting for her reply with her mobile phone.
Cong Nuo said: [Have you not received it yet? But here I show that you have signed for the package. ] Then, Cong Nuo gave Su Beibei a screenshot of the courier.
Su Beibei scanned the tracking number, clicked to view the courier information, and found that the courier was signed for by the guard yesterday morning. Su Beibei told Cong Nuo: [It may be at the guard's place.]
Su Beibei took off her suspender skirt, put on a dress, and went to the guard room in sandals.
The doorman and Su Beibei are acquaintances. Seeing Su Beibei, the elder brother of the doorman smiled and said, "Are you going out so late, Ms. Su?" The security guard thought that Su Beibei was going out to buy something.
Su Beibei went directly to the doorman on duty, and she asked, "Brother Lin, I had an international express delivered yesterday, is it with you?"
Su Beibei passed the courier information to the security guard Brother Lin to take a look. Lin Ge took a closer look and said, "I signed for it, but Mr. Li came to pick up the courier yesterday."
"My husband took it?"
"yes."
Su Beibei smiled at the security guard, and then said: "It may be left at home, and I forgot to tell me."
When Su Beibei returned home from the security office, she changed into her indoor slippers, and when she put her going-out sandals into the shoe cabinet, she found a pair of brand new sneakers in the shoe cabinet. These are the sneakers she bought at an online brand flagship store a few days ago, and they also arrived yesterday morning.
It seems that Cong Nuo's gift was indeed taken home by Li Li.
Su Beibei searched all over the house, but couldn't find the gift from Cong Nuo. She took out her mobile phone and asked Cong Nuo: [Child, what gift did you give me?]
Cong Nuo said: [My first album.]
Cong Nuo said again: [Bei'er, haven't you received it?]
Su Beibei said: [There are too many express deliveries, I have to search carefully.]
Su Beibei searched around but couldn't find the album. Seeing that she had been looking for something, her aunt asked her, "Ma'am, what are you looking for?"
Su Beibei thought that her aunt came early yesterday, so she asked her: "Auntie, did the husband bring back the courier for me yesterday? Have you seen where he put the courier?"
The aunt thought for a while, and then said: "I remember he unpacked the courier at the entrance, I don't remember where to put it, but I saw a small courier box in the trash can."
Hearing this, Su Beibei's pretty face froze at first, and then became a little ugly.
lost
"Auntie, where did you throw the trash yesterday?"
Auntie's expression changed immediately when she heard Su Beibei's words. Thinking that there was something valuable in the courier box, the aunt jumped up in shock. She observed Su Beibei's reaction, and asked cautiously: "Ma'am, did you lose something valuable?"
"No, just a CD, a gift from my friend."
"Oh, I was shocked." The aunt patted her chest and hurriedly said to Su Beibei: "After you left yesterday afternoon, I left too. I threw all the garbage in the house into the trash can downstairs. This After a while, I'm afraid I can't find it anymore."
"Okay, I see. Auntie, it's getting late, you should go back and rest first."
"Well, I'll tidy up the kitchen and leave." Auntie went to tidy up the kitchen, Su Beibei ran to the room to look at Li Ao, saw Li Ao was sleeping soundly, and said to Auntie: "Let's go down together."
