"Yes, yes, I don't know why the weather is so hot. Look, my mother is almost suffering from presbyopia due to the heat. Oh, this is really..."
Since Tang Nuanhua found a step for her, Qiao Manxue naturally hurried down.
Then she hurriedly greeted Tang Nuanhua and asked in a rare and warm voice, "Nanhua, why are you here? Why didn't you say hello to mom in advance?"
"Mom, I suddenly missed you, so I came to see you." Tang Nuanhua said with a sweet smile.
Qiao Manxue smiled from ear to ear after hearing this, "It's okay if you have such a heart. You are so busy at work, even if you don't have time to see your mother, it's understandable."
"Yes, mom is so kind and gentle, of course she can understand me." Tang Nuanhua said with a sweet smile.
After hearing this, Qiao Manxue immediately smiled even more happily, stretched out her index finger to tap Tang Nuanhua's lips and teased, "You are getting better and better at talking with your mouth."
Ever since she sincerely accepted Tang Nuanhua as her daughter-in-law, it seemed that Qiao Manxue was able to discover some of Tang Nuanhua's advantages day by day.
In the past, she had always thought that Tang Nuanhua was just a yellow-haired girl who didn't know etiquette, had no education, and was unsatisfactory in every aspect.
Now from another angle, she discovered that Tang Nuanhua was a very independent and clever girl.
Although, Qiao Manxue has always wanted to find a good housekeeper for her son Li Jingyi with a gentle and kind personality.
But now it seems that having a smart and interesting daughter-in-law is also a good thing.
"By the way, Mom, where is Xia Xiner?" Suddenly, Tang Nuanhua asked again.
She remembered that she hadn't seen Xia Xiner for a while, so she asked.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Manxue suddenly sighed leisurely, "Oh, that girl is gone."
"Leaving?" Tang Nuanhua was stunned, "Why didn't I know when it happened?"
"Didn't she inform you?"
Qiao Manxue was also a little surprised, and then sighed again, "Maybe this girl didn't want to make you sad, so she chose to leave alone."
"may be."
Tang Nuanhua nodded and turned her eyes unintentionally to the window. Seeing the bright sunshine outside, illuminating the whole world brightly, she felt some inexplicable sadness in her heart.
In fact, even if Xia Xiner didn't say goodbye in person, Tang Nuanhua could probably guess the reason why she would leave silently.
A while ago, after Li Jingyi took down all the assassination organizations, the assassination organizations no longer posed a threat to Xia Xiner.
Of course Tang Nuanhua will not forget that Xia Xiner also has her own husband and her own family.
Now that the difficulties and obstacles she faced have been overcome, she will naturally return to her relatives. She didn't say goodbye in person, probably because Xia Xiner knew very well that she was just a passerby.
very nice.
Thinking of this, Tang Nuanhua felt happy for Xia Xiner.
Because in fact, what Tang Nuanhua longed for most was to be by Li Jingyi's side safely, and the two of them would get married, start a business, have children and raise children, and live a normal and happy life.
But perhaps because he has experienced too much turmoil and does not know what kind of dangers he will face in the future, Tang Nuanhua feels in his heart that such a life is still some distance away from him.
In the future, she still doesn’t know how many difficulties are waiting for her.
Alas, let's take it one step at a time. Tang Nuanhua can't change the future, so he can only let nature take its course.
Of course, there is one more thing she can do, and that is never give up.
No matter what kind of hardships there are in the future, all Tang Nuanhua can do is to be firm-willed and persevere until the end.
Until he and Li Jingyi stayed together for a lifetime.
…
evening.
Tang Nuanhua sat in the Li family's old house all afternoon. She chatted with her mother-in-law and grandparents for a while, and played chess for a while. The family had a great time.
When it gets dark, we might as well stay here and have dinner.
In order to entertain Tang Nuanhua, Qiao Manxue specially asked the servants to prepare a full table of Manchu and Han banquets. When they were eating, she smiled at Tang Nuanhua and said, "Nuanhua, Mom doesn't know what you like to eat, so let people We’ve made some of everything, try it yourself and eat more of whatever you like.”
"Okay, thank you, Mom." Tang Nuanhua smiled obediently.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." At this time, the old lady smacked her lips happily, obviously very satisfied with this scene.
She smiled heartily and said, "You said that the relationship between you, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, was so awkward before, but now it's not so good? So I say, as long as we become a family, there is no conflict that cannot be resolved. .”
"Manxue, do you still remember what you said about Nuan Hua when she first entered our house? Oh, I remember that clearly."
When she said this, the old lady seemed to be a drama queen.
She put down her chopsticks and put her hands on her hips, imitating Qiao Manxue's domineering appearance in the past, and said in a sharp tone, "Look at that Tang Nuan painting, she looks like a yellow-haired girl! I will never like this kind of girl, and I will never like her." I will agree to her marriage to Jing Yi, but if they insist on getting married, then don’t recognize me as their mother!"
"Hahahahahaha..."
Although the old lady is old, she is really good at imitating others. Her stern and quirky look made everyone at the table laugh.
Even Qiao Manxue laughed along with her, and then said with a face full of shame, "Mom, don't make fun of me. Didn't I have prejudice against Nuan Hua before? But that was all in the past.
Now, the grudge between Nuan Hua and I has been resolved, so naturally we must live in harmony. Nuan Hua, do you think what mom said is right? "
"Yes, yes, mom is right."
Tang Nuanhua was laughing beside him. The nervousness caused by worrying about Li Jingyi seemed to relax a lot in such a relaxed atmosphere.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a high-spirited middle-aged man suddenly walked in from the door.
After hearing the laughter inside, the man took off his suit jacket and asked in a calm voice, "What are you talking about? Are you so happy?"
The person who came was none other than Li Jingyi’s father, Li Haitian.
"Dad." Tang Nuanhua looked at the man and called out obediently.
"I asked you why you are so happy. It turns out that your daughter-in-law is here." Li Haitian also saw Tang Nuanhua and responded with a calm smile. He had the sophisticated aura of a middle-aged man, which made him feel solemn and steady.
"Haitian, since you're back, come and have dinner quickly." Qiao Manxue hurriedly opened a seat next to Li Haitian.
