"Didn't you go out to eat? The big fish and meat outside are not full yet?" Li Zhen's mother smiled softly and couldn't help but tease. Before going out, Li Zhen said to go to a class reunion, she estimated that she would not come back. It’s only been half an hour away, so why come back so soon
"Oh, the outside is not as delicious as you did. Go ahead, I especially want to eat your braised pork ribs today." Li Zhen stuck his tongue out, pretending that nothing happened. Touching his stomach, looking at his mother grievously.
Seeing this pitiful thing, Li Zhen’s mother felt relieved, and quickly got up and went to the kitchen, "Okay, I'll make it for you right away, don't worry."
Li Zhen looked at her mother's back, tears filled her eyes, thinking of what Li Zhenxiong had done, she really felt sorry for her mother.
While his mother was not paying attention, Li Zhen quietly wiped away the tears and stood up casually, "I'll help you."
"Oh, no, you can just go over there and wait for me."
Li Zhen's mother waved her hand, not wanting her to come in. There is a lot of oily fumes in the kitchen. Li Zhen has never done this since she was a child, so she came here alone.
Li Zhen ignored her objections and began to wash the vegetables piece by piece. Li Zhen's mother wanted to let her watch TV, but she just turned her head and found that she had already started her hands. She was moved.
Li Zhenxiong stood at the top of the stairs and observed for a while before he walked down slowly. The impatient mood just now eased, and Li Zhenxiong came downstairs, sitting with his legs crossed, his eyes blank, as if something was on his mind.
In the huge room, three people gathered around a rectangular table and ate their heads. The harmonious scene had been broken by Li Zhenxiong just now.
Li Zhenxiong glanced at Li Zhen from time to time, and stopped talking. Li Zhen felt Li Zhenxiong's gaze, but didn't make any response.
Just now at the class meeting, he lost face because of his scandal. In fact, this is nothing, except that Li Zhenxiong has never spoken to her for so many days. Without a word, she still blamed him in her heart.
As long as Li Zhenxiong apologized to his mother, Li Zhen might forgive him. She felt that Li Zhenxiong had done these things, the one who was most sorry was her mother.
"Come, Zhenzhen, your favorite braised pork." Li Zhen's mother also felt a little embarrassed and coughed twice.
When Li Zhen came back to his senses, the bowl was already piled into small hills. Mom continued to pick up vegetables for her, and quickly removed the bowl.
"Enough... I'm not fat enough. This is the rhythm to feed me twenty pounds." Li Zhen covered the bowl with his hands and couldn't help but laugh at himself. After eating the dishes in the bowl, she is probably full.
"Why, so skinny, how can I not eat more." Li Zhen's mother began to serve her chicken soup again.
She used to be a domestic servant who cooks, and she seldom cooks things that Li Zhen likes to eat herself. Now that the servants are gone, she doesn't feel the conditions are difficult. The family sits together so kindly and eats their own meals, which is very happy.
"Mom, I really can't eat it." Li Zhen stuffed the bowl of vegetables into his mouth and hurried to the second floor.
It is estimated that she will sit down again and have another bowl of rice. If you don't pay attention to your figure, you can't hold up your stomach because of overeating.
"This kid said he was hungry just now, and just ran away after taking a few bites." Li Zhen's mother sighed and drank the chicken soup by herself.
Seeing the opportunity, Li Zhenxiong also put down his bowl and chopsticks. Without saying anything, I'm ready to go upstairs.
"You don't eat it anymore? Why do you eat so little today? Is it that today's food is terrible? Did I forget to add salt..." Li Zhen's mother muttered to herself, picking up every dish and tasting it. , It feels almost the same as before.
Li Zhenxiong stood outside the door for a few minutes, then opened the door and went in.
He knew in his heart that even if he knocked on the door, Li Zhen would not let him in.
"Really, are you asleep? How come eating such a little bit is not good for your health..." Li Zhen buried his head in the bed and couldn't see his face.
Li Zhenxiong decided to take the initiative to speak to her and see her reaction.
Li Zhen remained motionless, did not answer, and wondered if he was asleep.
"It's all because of my father's bad things and doing wrong things that have caused you to be wronged these days. If you forgive my father, I will never do it again..." Li Zhenxiong changed his strategy and began to proactively admit his mistakes. Isn't it clear to his daughter whether he eats soft or hard Li Zhenxiong stepped forward and patted Li Zhen on the back lightly.
It only took a few minutes, she couldn't fall asleep so quickly, she must have fallen asleep. Even if he really fell asleep, he planned to wake her up.
Li Zhen was still stubborn. Hearing Li Zhenxiong's words, tears flowed down unintuitively. Soon, the hot tears wet the pillow.
The line of defense in her heart also collapsed. Thinking of the days in the hospital and today's class reunion, she cried loudly.
"You still know that you did something wrong, or because of your things, our family will become like this now, do you know that others say that to me..." Li Zhen got up from the bed, crying and twitching At the same time, I was very emotional.
Li Zhenxiong looked at the tears on the pillow in surprise, and was also shocked. But he soon recovered his calmness.
"Yes, yes, blame me, be good, don't cry." Li Zhenxiong stepped forward and gently wiped away tears for Li Zhen.
Li Zhen suddenly hugged Li Zhenxiong's arm tightly and stared at him, "This is what you said, there is no next time."
Li Zhenxiong's wrinkled face hardly squeezed out a smile, shook his lips, and nodded at Li Zhen.
Li Zhenxiong has only apologized to himself twice when he grew up so old. The first time was when Li Zhuofan entered the house, and the second time was today. Since childhood, Li Zhenxiong has never been close to her, but recently, Li Zhen has felt paternal love.
Therefore, every time he sees his father apologize, Li Zhen must be softened.
"I can forgive you, but you must apologize to my mother." Li Zhen stopped crying, and suddenly came a sentence that Li Zhenxiong didn't expect.
"No need..." Li Zhenxiong hesitated, unable to pull off his old face. He didn't want to show weakness in front of his wife again, he was still majestic.
"Dad is looking for you today, so let's talk about it another day. Tonight you will follow me to a banquet and I will talk about work." Li Zhenxiong hesitated for a long time, his eyes rolled and the subject changed.
He originally came back today to find Li Zhen to go to a place, and of course he couldn't forget the business. Now that she has forgiven herself, she apologizes to her mother. She just walked through the scene just now, she took it seriously.
"Let me go, you have to apologize first." Li Zhen reluctantly continued speaking. I didn't think much about the evening banquet, thinking it was just ordinary meals.
