In fact, Meng Li didn't care about the food and drink, he just knew that Qi Lili was petty and did this.
This is called prescribing the right medicine. You need to know what the other party cares about.
The two of them had almost eaten, but there were still some dishes left. Meng Li said to Qi Lili:
"Save the food for us to heat up and eat in the evening. We still have the food from last night, so we'll make do with it tonight."
Qi Lili said with some disgust:
"Eat the leftovers from two meals in one meal."
Meng Li said with a smile:
"Everything here is edible."
Looking at Qi Lili's behavior, those who didn't know better would have thought that Qi Lili was born into a rich and luxurious family and never ate leftovers.
When you were a girl in your parents' family, you didn't have to eat everything, especially since Qi Lili's family also preferred boys, but Qi Lili was not so good at it.
All the good food and drink were given to the boy.
I don't know how Qi Lili's parental education was so 'successful'. Generally speaking, families favor boys over girls, and girls who come from such a family will remember those things.
More or less, she is still resentful towards her parents, accusing them of only knowing boys.
But Qi Lili's situation was different. Qi Lili also doted on her younger brother, and she felt that it was nothing to pay without any regrets.
However, the shortcomings of the mother's family are left to the husband's family to make up for it. If you are not well-fed and treated as a little princess in your mother's family, you have to enjoy this treatment when you get to your husband's family.
To put it bluntly, Tang Shaoyuan liked Qi Lili so much that Qi Lili felt that she had to be like this.
you love me? You have to lower your posture to please me.
Not only you, but also your parents have to lower their posture.
Qi Lili glanced at the remaining dishes and said to Meng Li:
"Mom, these are just some chili ingredients, nothing delicious."
Meng Li picked up the chopsticks, turned them over and said:
"Isn't there also chicken?"
Spicy chicken.
Qi Lili was speechless, thought for a while and said:
"Mom, today's meal cost is 65."
Meng Li said with a smile on his face:
"It's okay. It's not too expensive."
Qi Lili:…
Why don't you understand today? Don't you understand what she means
"Mom, that's the money given on my mobile phone." Qi Lili said.
Meng Li said regretfully:
"I really envy you young people who can pay with your mobile phone. It seems very convenient."
Qi Lili felt that the other party was just pretending not to understand what she meant, so she said directly:
"Mom, just give me cash."
Meng Li touched his body and said to Qi Lili awkwardly:
"I ran out of cash yesterday and only have a few dollars with me. I'll withdraw the money and give it to you in the afternoon."
Qi Lili:…
She said to herself that she still had the money from yesterday's Che Lizi, so don't forget it.
But Meng Li had already stood up and held his waist and said:
"I don't know what's going on, but my back hurts badly today."
He said and moved towards the sofa.
Qi Lili was a little upset when she saw that the mess on the table had not yet been cleaned up. These greasy things stuck to her and she had to wash her hands. After washing her hands, she had to apply hand cream. Her hand cream was also very expensive.
"What's going on? I saw you were fine yesterday." Qi Lili turned her head and looked at Meng Li and said.
Meng Li: "I don't know."
Qi Lili thought for a while and finally said a polite word:
"Would you like to go to the hospital and take a look?"
Meng Li shook his head and said:
"Hey, let's forget it."
"It will pass after you endure it. It's just that I don't know what to do with the hygiene at home these days."
Qi Lili:…
I really can't accept this. The old woman has already said this, so why don't we just expect her to say something and she will do it
The housework is so tiring for me. The old woman is only fifty years old, which is not too old. Why does she feel sore here and there
It can't be an act.
Qi Lili remained silent. Meng Li raised an eyebrow and stopped talking. She was a good mother-in-law, how could she force her daughter-in-law to do housework.
Qi Lili was a little irritated. She took out her phone and clicked a few times. Then the messages kept ringing. Qi Lili said to Meng Li:
"Mom, something happened to me. I need to go out first."
Meng Li nodded, this escape technique was used well.
Then Qi Lili didn't even clear the table, so she went straight into the room and smeared it on her face, changed her clothes, weighed her bag, and went out.
Meng Li had no intention of clearing the table as his back hurt.
The kind that won’t work even if you stand for a long time.
But she brought the leftovers she planned to eat in the evening and put them in the refrigerator, and then Meng Li went out to see a doctor.
It’s not all pretending. The client has some physical problems at this age. Later in the plot, the client is seriously ill. To prevent it before it happens, he needs to get some Chinese medicine to treat it.
Although Chinese medicine does not provide immediate results, it is actually very useful.
Meng Li also grabbed some medicine with the prescription he wrote. The client had come here often before and had to take a bus to get there.
Meng Li walked and it took a lot of time. The business was good and the queue was quite long.
Meng Li directly said that it was a prescription given by a relative.
When the other party saw that the prescription was to regulate the body and not to deceive others, he gave it to Meng Li.
Carrying the traditional Chinese medicine bag, Meng Li found a park outside to kill time for a walk, and bought a pair of pants for Old Tang. Old Tang's clothes were all bought by the client.
Then she saw a ten-yuan scarf on the street and smiled. She wanted to buy it for her daughter-in-law.
After choosing a scarf that his daughter-in-law not only disliked but also hated, Meng Li slowly walked home.
The time is all set, and the time is set for Old Tang and Little Tang to come back.
Old Tang and Xiao Tang had just arrived home and before closing the door, Meng Li appeared at the door holding his waist and looking tired.
Qi Lili also came back, but she didn't come out of the room.
Old Tang looked at the medicine bag in Meng Li's hand and asked:
"What's wrong with you? You went to get some medicine again."
Meng Li sighed:
"I woke up this morning and felt pain in my lower back. I sat in the living room all morning and it didn't get better. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I went to get some medicine."
"Just these two packets of medicine actually cost me two hundred yuan." Meng Li picked up the medicine packet and shook it.
The expression was very painful.
Tang Shaoyuan felt like he was being pricked. His mother felt so distressed when she paid two hundred yuan for medical treatment, but yesterday Chelizi's price was more than one hundred yuan.
"By the way, I took the money and gave it to you."
Meng Li took out two hundred yuan and gave it to Tang Shaoyuan and said:
"Yesterday's cherries were 128. Today at noon, I had a backache and I didn't cook. Lili ordered takeout for 65. At noon, Lili asked me for it, and I promised to give it to her in the afternoon."
"Bring her in."
Meng Li put money into Tang Shaoyuan's hand.
Tang Shaoyuan's expression was very unpleasant. He avoided the money with his hands and said:
"No, Mom, you keep it for medical treatment. I don't want the money. I have my own salary."
Meng Li insisted on giving:
"No, you have to save your money. Mom doesn't care about this little money, so just take it."
Tang Shaoyuan felt uneasy about his conscience, especially since he had eaten alone last night. He walked directly to the room and left a message to Meng Li:
"Mom, I really don't want it, just take it."
