After eating the noodles, Yao Yiyi said: "Xu Chen, go in and sleep with An An. You haven't come to see him these days. He has been having a little trouble. Please stay with him."
Xu Chen nodded: "Then I'll go up."
Yao Yiyi nodded.
After Xu Chen went upstairs, Yao Yiyi held her cell phone and kept talking about what happened to Yao Ting when she went to the Li family this time. She originally wanted to call her, but she was afraid that she was talking to the elders of the Li family. Talk, calling now might disturb her.
Yao Ting, who was in the Li family at the moment, was also miserable. She looked at the dark people in the hall and was inevitably frightened. She never thought that Li Haoran had so many relatives, both directly and indirectly. Almost all of them came. I'm afraid she had only seen this battle on TV.
Yao Ting looked at the group of relatives who were watching her with eager eyes. She really felt like Alexander. Even a person with the best psychological quality would be scared if they were looked at like a monkey for several hours.
Yao Ting tugged on Li Haoran's clothes, and Li Haoran turned around and whispered: "Why do you have so many relatives in your family?"
"These are my uncles and their children. Some of them are also relatives of the Li family. I didn't expect so many people to come. I think it was my mother who deliberately called them here. Don't be afraid. , I'm here." Li Haoran whispered.
In fact, Li Haoran felt quite embarrassed. He didn't expect that his mother would be so childish and call so many people here. It was obvious that he wanted to frighten Yao Ting into retreating.
He also felt a little helpless. He hadn't taken care of his family yet. It was really a lack of consideration to bring Yao Ting to the door rashly today.
"Haoran, I want to go to the toilet." Yao Ting said softly. She didn't eat much just now, but she drank a lot of water because she was a little nervous. She had three urgent needs and couldn't stop her.
Li Haoran looked at the two relatives who were still looking at the two of them with eagerness. He calmly pulled Yao Ting to stand up and said with a smile: "Uncles, uncles, aunts and uncles, I'm a little anxious. I'll go to the toilet first. If you feel bored, just go Let’s play mahjong first, and the three-chamber trial will give people a chance to breathe, don’t you think?”
Mrs. Li's beautiful peach blossom eyes looked straight at Li Haoran holding Yao Ting's hand and said: "Son, you can go to the bathroom. Yao Ting can stay. After all, she is my future daughter-in-law. I I just want to talk to her more and find out in advance that my son will not be born like this before he gets married."
Yao Ting broke away from Li Haoran's hand and said with a smile: "Haoran, you go to the toilet, I will chat with aunt."
Li Haoran directly hugged Yao Ting's waist and said with a smile: "Mom, your son has a special hobby. He likes to chat with Tingting when he goes to the toilet. You also know that she just came back from Beijing. We have been chatting for two years. I’m in love, and when she comes back, I can’t help but want to be tired of her.”
Mrs. Li's face changed, as if she was going to get angry, but she still held it in.
"Don't you want to go to the toilet? Why don't you go quickly? There are a lot of relatives sitting here, so you have to hurry up and don't make people wait." Mrs. Li said.
After the others left, Mrs. Li said bitterly in her heart: You are the one who wants to enter the Li family, right? Okay, I'll let you in, but it's never been so easy to be the wife of a wealthy family. I want to see how calm you can be under the pressure of a bunch of complicated rules.
Seeing that no one was there, one of the ladies, who was very fashionably dressed, frowned and said: "Sister-in-law, the girl who is dating Haoran is not worthy of Haoran at first sight. Do you agree that she is dating Haoran?" Said this The speaker is the third wife of the Li family. Before she got married, she was a wealthy lady. She was not particularly beautiful, but she was good at dressing up, so she had a good temperament. Even though she was over forty-five, she looked like she was in her early thirties.
Mrs. Li glanced at her, snorted coldly, and said: "How could I like her? Haoran just likes her, and I can't force her to make Haoran hate me. She wants to fly up a branch and become a phoenix, so I'll let her She knows that it is not that simple for an ordinary woman to want to be rich and prosperous, so I have many ways to make her retreat from the difficulties and not dare to dream of my family Haoran."
"Sister-in-law is still as majestic as ever." Mrs. Li San said truthfully.
In the Li family, the relationship between the sisters-in-law is relatively good. After all, there is no overt intrigue like other wealthy families. It is not known what is going on behind the scenes, but on the surface they still maintain peace.
"By the way, sister-in-law, why isn't dad here today? Haoran is the grandson he values the most. He should be here when Haoran brings his girlfriend back." It was Mrs. Li San who spoke again.
"Dad has an old friend who he hasn't seen for many years who came back from abroad and made an appointment to meet outside, so he went to meet him. As for the daughter Haoran brought back, it's not a serious wife. What I like is the daughter of the Zhang family. Dad is missing. It saves a lot of trouble. Look at her restrained look just now, which is very unpleasant at first sight." Mrs. Li said.
Mrs. Li San smiled and said: "Sister-in-law is absolutely right. Our Li family is a wealthy family. If cats and dogs can come in, there are no rules at all."
Having said this, other collateral relatives also knew that Mrs. Li was dissatisfied with Yao Ting. Even the old man didn't come out to meet her in person. I'm afraid she was also dissatisfied and gave up on making friends with Yao Yiyi. thoughts.
So when Yao Ting and Li Haoran came back, they no longer felt that special look.
Yao Ting finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Li's beautiful peach blossom eyes glanced at Yao Ting, and Yao Ting couldn't help but sigh in her heart: beauty is a disaster.
She had to admit that the genes of the Li family were very good. Needless to say, the younger ones were as handsome as the others. However, in front of the beauty of Li Haoran and Mrs. Li, the others were eclipsed.
When she grows up to be like Mrs. Li, a beautiful woman who would have captivated the whole country in ancient times, she will definitely arouse the king's bewilderment even more than that praise.
Yao Ting didn't feel that she had a sense of inferiority about her appearance. Thinking about it from her perspective, if she were Mrs. Li, she would definitely look down on a daughter-in-law like her. She is so unsuitable. It's not that she is ashamed of herself, but that she is still If you are self-aware, this is a cheating world based on your appearance.
Mrs. Li said: "It's rare for you to come to Li's house for dinner today. It's not early now. If you are sleepy at noon, let the servants take you up to take a nap."
The people present were all human beings. Knowing that Mrs. Li was deliberately sending them away, they got up one after another and went upstairs under the guidance of the servants.
For a moment, only the direct wives of the Li family were present in the huge hall, while the men went to the study to discuss business.
"Miss Yao." Mrs. Li smiled, but her eyebrows were cold.
"Auntie, you can just call me Yao Ting." Yao Ting said with a smile that was neither humble nor overbearing.
"We're not that familiar yet, so let's call you Miss Yao. Since you and my Haoran have been in love for two years, it's time to talk about marriage. But I have to tell you about the rules of the Li family. Although it looks glamorous and modern, it is actually very traditional and has many special rules. If you marry Haoran, you must live here and learn the same rules as me. This is for the wife of the Li family. The only way to go through it, you can't think these rules are old-fashioned." Mrs. Li spoke softly, her voice was like a warbler, very pleasant, but in Yao Ting's ears it was as terrifying as a demon.
Yao Ting was embarrassed and looked at Li Haoran subconsciously. Li Haoran also frowned and said angrily: "Mom, don't scare Tingting."
"Haoran, is it possible that everything mom said is false?"
Li Haoran was choked.
Yao Ting seemed to have a flash of thunder in her heart, beating her to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Li Haoran did not refute, which meant that this matter was true.
Mrs. Li smiled with satisfaction and said: "Miss Yao, if you insist on marrying my son, I won't make it difficult for you. It's just our family's rules that I think I need to let you know in advance."
"Mom, after Tingting marries me, we will live in an apartment in the city." Li Haoran said.
Mrs. Li glanced at him and said slightly angrily: "Haoran, are you trying to make me mad? If you want to marry her, you have to abide by the rules of our Li family. After marriage, she must You live in the main house, otherwise you wouldn’t even think about getting married.”
Li Haoran fell silent.
"Auntie, tell me. If Haoran and I are destined to get married, it is reasonable for me to live with my parents-in-law. I can understand it." Yao Ting grabbed Li Haoran's hand. She didn't want Li Haoran to suffer because of her. I had an argument with my mother.
"Miss Yao still knows the basics." Mrs. Li smiled and said, "Our Li family's rules are easy to get used to. First, you have to get up very early in the morning to prepare breakfast for us, and you have to wait for us to eat at noon before you can eat; Two, you can't interrupt when elders are talking, and you can't make a sound whether it's eating or drinking; three, you have to get hot water to soak my feet and beat my shoulders, and you can only go to bed after I fall asleep; four, you have to soak my feet with hot water and beat my shoulders. You cannot refute what I say. You must obey it unconditionally. What I say is an order. Five, you must obey your husband and follow the four virtues. If your husband occasionally acts outside or supports others, you must not make a fuss. Six, marry into the Li family. Your first task is to spread the branches and leaves of the Li family and give birth to at least three boys to carry on the Haoran family; seven..."
"Mom, you are really going too far. I never knew the Li family had these rules. I married my wife for pain, not for her to do things that only servants do." Li Haoran said. The sound interrupted Mrs. Li's judgment, and there was a trace of helplessness in her voice. His mother really went a little too far today.
