Entering Li Xiao's home, Li Hongjuan was even more satisfied with this "daughter-in-law" because the house was clean and tidy, and the furniture and daily necessities were neatly arranged.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Li Xiao was just doing the cleaning temporarily, but Li Hongjuan has a pair of sharp eyes. The kitchen is not a place where dirt and filth can hide. The stove, sink, cupboard, refrigerator, and floor can all reveal the problem.
Li Hongjuan walked into the kitchen and casually asked, "Xiaoxiao, do you usually cook for yourself?"
"Yes."
Li Xiao followed behind and accompanied the inspection, answering cautiously. She was also a little nervous, worried that she might not have done something right and make her future mother-in-law unhappy with her.
"You're pregnant now, so you should do less housework. Didn't Shen Yuan find a nanny for you? I'll definitely tell him when I get back."
"He has already found one for me. I said it's not the right time to hire a nanny in the early stages of pregnancy, and I'm not used to having a nanny at home, so I told him to wait until the middle or late stages of pregnancy."
"That's more like it."
Li Hongjuan nodded inwardly, thinking that this meant that her new daughter-in-law was not the kind of person who would just sit there and wait for others to serve her. She must be a girl who grew up in an ordinary family.
She first looked at the kitchen floor, which was mopped very clean, then saw that the stove and sink were also very tidy, and then opened the refrigerator.
In the double-door refrigerator, the ingredients are neatly arranged and staggered, which looks pleasing to the eye.
"Xiaoxiao, you take good care of the kitchen."
Li Hongjuan nodded in appreciation. She often did housework and liked to keep her house tidy and orderly.
It was only an hour ago when Xuanmei contacted Li Xiao. It was impossible for her to clean the kitchen so well in such a short time.
This shows that this is the daily life of this family.
"well enough."
Li Xiao responded embarrassedly, then washed some fruits and brought them to the coffee table, and cut some watermelon and dragon fruit.
"Looking at the way he cuts the fruit, he must be someone who cooks often."
Looking at Li Xiao's busy figure, Li Hongjuan felt more and more that this girl was a virtuous and sensible girl.
My bastard son got it for free.
"Okay, Xiaoxiao, don't treat us as outsiders. We can handle this ourselves. You don't have to worry about cooking tonight. I'll make you a meal."
"How can I do that, Mom? I'll do it. I'm only four weeks pregnant, so cooking won't be a problem for me."
"You already call me mom, so why would I let you cook? Besides, the kitchen is full of fumes, so just leave it to me."
Li Hongjuan insisted on cooking for her new daughter-in-law. Li Xiao had no choice but to stay in the kitchen and help.
In the living room, Chen Xuan peeled longan and stuffed it into her mouth while saying, "Dad, looking at my mom, she seems to be quite satisfied with Sister-in-law Li Xiao."
"Um."
Shen Heping nodded slightly: "Your brother is marrying above his station."
"Is my brother really that bad? How much do you look down on him?"
Shen Xuan first spoke for Shen Yuan, then laughed and said, "Actually, I also think my brother is not worthy, but he is rich."
Details reveal a person's character. Shen Heping has a different perspective on people. She thinks that Li Xiao is a very decent girl in every gesture, and in addition to professional books, there are many famous books in the bookcase.
It is not bought as a sample, because the spine is obviously bent, and the pages are folded and the edges are curled, which are caused by long-term reading.
It shows that she is a well-educated girl with a rich spiritual world.
Forget about my own big son, as long as he has a lot of money and billions, that's enough.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hit it off right away and had a pleasant chat in the kitchen, preparing a meal while talking and laughing.
Four dishes and a soup were served, but soon the door opened. Li Hongjuan was startled: "Are there any guests?"
Li Xiao smoothed her hair and said embarrassedly, "I forgot to tell you that my sister lives with me. She should have just got off work."
"Oh, it's okay."
"I know, it's Sister Li Meng."
Chen Xuan had a good impression of Li Meng because her brother had a conflict with Li Xiao's wife at that time, and she was sent to be the wingman, and it was Li Meng who acted as the insider.
Li Meng had just opened the door when she suddenly stopped.
Wrong door?
Li Meng frowned slightly, but then she saw her sister and Shen Xuan again.
Li Xiao walked over and said, "Mengmeng, this is Shen Yuan's parents. They came to see me."
"Is that so?"
Li Meng glanced at the middle-aged couple. The moment their eyes met, she suddenly felt a little restrained, even inexplicably nervous.
It’s strange, they are here to see my sister, why should I be nervous?
Li Meng put on her bag, changed into slippers, and politely walked to the dining table and greeted everyone: "Hello, uncle and auntie, I'm Li Meng, Li Xiao's sister."
"Hello, hello, you haven't eaten yet, right? It's a good opportunity for us to eat together."
Li Hongjuan extended a warm invitation like a family head.
"Okay, okay, I'll go wash my hands first."
Li Meng smiled embarrassedly.
This is strange. Even Li Xiao found it very strange. Usually, his sister would have a cold face when seeing the relatives at home, but why did she become so reserved when seeing Shen Yuan's parents?
When Li Meng came back after washing her hands, Chen Xuan waved at her: "Hello, Sister Li Meng."
"Hello, Sister Xuan."
Li Meng smiled awkwardly.
Chen Xuan also felt that Li Meng was not in the right state today. She was usually a little aloof, but today she seemed a little reserved.
"Li Meng, are you a flight attendant?" Li Hongjuan asked.
"Yes, I just flew back from Shanghai. Actually, this profession is not as chaotic as you think. It mainly depends on the person, right? I mean, my job is pretty good."
Li Meng pinched her thigh hard under the table. She was talking nonsense.
I didn't ask? Li Hongjuan was a little confused.
My sister seems a little helpless today. Li Xiao gently patted Li Meng's thigh under the table to comfort her.
During the meal, Li Meng simply didn't speak unless Li Hongjuan asked.
She thought about it and finally found the reason why something was wrong with her.
Because she subconsciously regarded this as the first meeting between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and was afraid of leaving a bad impression on her parents-in-law.
"call."
Li Meng took a deep breath in her heart, indicating that she had to correct her identity.
Shen Yuan and I are in an underground relationship, so there's no need to worry about these things.
But after the meal, Li Meng still couldn't adjust her mentality. She washed dishes and cut fruits, which made Li Hongjuan and her husband feel a little embarrassed.
"Don't bother Li Meng, don't treat us as outsiders."
"Uh-huh."
Li Meng thought her performance was pretty good.
After resting for a while, Li Hongjuan said goodbye and prepared to leave. Li Xiao and Li Meng even accompanied her in the elevator and took her to the underground garage.
On the way back, sitting in the back seat of the Maybach, Li Hongjuan was still a little puzzled: "I can understand Xiaoxiao's enthusiasm for us, but why is her sister also so warm-hearted?"
Shen Xuan sat in the co-pilot seat and exchanged glances with Shen Heping. Then Old Shen said, "Maybe everyone in her family is so enthusiastic, and this is the first time our parents-in-law meet. She might also be afraid that if she doesn't perform well, it will affect our attitude towards Xiaoxiao."
"Maybe."
Li Hongjuan didn't take it to heart, patting her thigh and laughing, "This Xiaoxiao is a good girl. When I was washing vegetables and rice in the kitchen, she was chopping vegetables and preparing food. She was afraid that I would be bored, so she would tell me some interesting stories about Shen Yuan in school to entertain me."
Chen Xuan laughed: "Mom, you saw Sister Nana also said she was a good girl, and you saw Sister Minhui also said she was a good girl, so which one is not a good girl?"
"They are all good girls, all good girls." Li Hongjuan was overjoyed.
"Then mom, what if my brother finds you another sister-in-law in addition to these three?"
Shen Xuan asked cautiously.
Li Hongjuan snapped, "If he dares, I'll beat him with a rolling pin! He really thinks he's the emperor!"
Chen Xuan laughed, she always said that, and it always smelled so good. She enjoyed watching the fun and said, "Mom, I'll give you the rolling pin when the time comes."
Li Hongjuan sneered: "But before that, I have to give you a couple of beatings for helping the evildoers."
Chen Xuan: “?”
Li Meng and Li Xiao returned upstairs. Li Xiao asked, "Did anything happen at work today? Why do you seem a little off?"
"Is there?"
"Yes, you're not usually like this."
"Maybe I'm a little tired."
Li Meng replied guiltily, and then said, "Sister, next time if her parents come, tell me."
After thinking about it, Li Meng was still a little dissatisfied with her performance today. First of all, she should have changed into casual clothes when she got home, and she should have put on light makeup. She should have also expressed some concern and greetings just now.
"OK."
Li Xiao didn't think much about it and said, "Then you should take a shower and rest early."
On the other side, Shen Yuan had just finished dinner at Chen Na's house when he received a call from Shen Xuan.
He walked to the balcony and answered the phone: "Xuan Mei, how was the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law meeting today?"
"Brother, you tricked me."
Chen Xuan spoke in a blaming tone: "So you always use me as the front, right? Do you know how many sticks I took today?"
"Okay, stop pretending in front of me."
Shen Yuan interrupted her spellcasting directly: "Mom always makes a lot of noise but does little. She will definitely not really do anything. Just tell me what happened today."
"I don't care. Even if I wasn't beaten, I was still mentally traumatized. You have to compensate me."
"Okay, okay, I'll buy you clothes and bags next time."
"Hey, that's pretty good."
Chen Xuan's tone suddenly brightened: "Today's meeting was very successful. My parents are very satisfied with Sister-in-law Li Xiao. They think she is virtuous, well-educated, and has a rich spiritual world. At the same time, they think you are not worthy of her and are marrying above your level."
"Okay, okay, there's no need to say anything more."
Shen Yuan interrupted directly and then called Li Xiao again.
"Teacher Li, what are you doing?"
"I'm reading in the living room. Have my uncle and auntie arrived home yet? What do they think of me? Do they dislike me?"
"No, they say you are virtuous, well-mannered, and spiritually rich. They are very satisfied with you."
Li Xiaozhong breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. I was worried that my performance wouldn't be good enough."
"Don't worry, the woman I like can't be bad."
Shen Yuan also praised himself in passing, and then said: "We were going to go together, but I'm a little busy today. Can I come to visit you tomorrow, Teacher Li?"
Li Xiao was a little dissatisfied after hearing this: "You said you won't call me Teacher Li anymore, and you can't call yourself a student anymore."
It's okay for others to call him that, but it's weird for Shen Yuan to call him Li Xiao.
"Then call Counselor Li."
“.”
After flirting with Li Xiao for a few words and hanging up the phone, Li Meng called unexpectedly. Shen Yuan answered the phone: "What's the matter, Sister Meng?"
"Your parents came to see my sister today." Li Meng's tone on the other end was a little depressed.
"Yeah, I know."
"Do they think well of my sister?"
"That's fine. Why are you suddenly concerned about this?"
Shen Yuan felt a little puzzled. In his impression, Li Meng never cared about these social etiquettes, not to mention that this matter had nothing to do with her.
"Nothing, just asking. I'm hanging up now."
Li Meng was about to hang up the phone, but before two seconds had passed, she said, "Wait, I have one more thing I want to ask you. What do your parents think of me?"
Shen Yuan now understood that Li Meng was putting herself in the shoes of her daughter-in-law, so she also cared about the opinions of her mother and Old Shen.
Although it was somewhat unnecessary, Shen Yuan still spoke out: "My mother just said that Li Xiao's sister is also very sensible and hardworking. It shows that the Li family has a good family tradition and the daughters they teach are all good."
Shen Yuan was not making it up randomly. Since Li Meng cared so much about the impression of her mother and Old Shen, she would definitely show it. What kind of performance could she show? It was just doing housework and entertaining guests.
Li Meng breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. I was worried that I didn't perform well. So, when will you come to see us?"
"Tomorrow, I'm free."
"I bought Balenciaga, both monogrammed and non-monogrammed."
"Great, send me some photos of your legs tonight."
Shen Yuan was looking forward to it. Although Li Meng was a little small, she had a pair of beautiful legs that were quite nice, long, straight, and not lacking in fleshiness.
Especially when wearing black or white stockings, the critical hit rate can be increased by 200%.
"No, you have to come and see for yourself tomorrow night."
Li Meng returned to her aloof demeanor, but Shen Yuan didn't care. Anyway, if he made her cry and call him daddy tomorrow night, she would know she was wrong.
After hanging up the phone and returning to the living room, the nanny had already washed the dishes and returned to her room, while the two sisters Chen Na and Xin Yu were watching variety shows on the sofa.
"Come on, squeeze in."
Shen Yuan forced himself to sit between the two sisters, holding Chen Xinyu's slender waist on the left and Chen Na's shoulder on the right: "It's more comfortable to come here with you. Come, Xinyu, feed your brother-in-law some cantaloupe."
"Uh, okay."
Chen Xinyu's face flushed red as she used a toothpick to pick up a piece of cantaloupe. Shen Yuan saw this and said, "Don't use a toothpick. I'm afraid it will poke me. Just use your hands."
Xiao Xinyu had to hold it with her hands, but when she handed it to Shen Yuan's mouth, she didn't expect that Shen Yuan swallowed her fingers, licked them, and looked at her with a teasing look.
Chen Xinyu shyly withdrew her hand and said timidly, "Brother-in-law, if you want to do this, I won't feed you."
"Oh, you still have a temper, don't you?"
Shen Yuan pinched her cheeks, and two white marks immediately appeared on her pink skin. Chen Xinyu lowered her head even lower in embarrassment.
"You bullied Xinyu again."
Chen Na felt a little sorry for her sister after seeing this.
She asked her sister to go find Shen Yuan by herself today, but her sister called Shen Yuan home. The moment she saw Shen Yuan, she was surprised and moved.
"Okay, okay, you two are just sisters with such deep affection."
Shen Yuan said as he reached out to Chen Na’s chest: “Come, come, if you don’t want your sister to be bullied, then let me give you a prenatal checkup.”
"Don't make a fuss, the babysitter might see it later."
Chen Na said coquettishly, she didn't know that Shen Yuan was not doing a prenatal checkup, but wanted to do a breast B-ultrasound for her.
"Hey, let's do it in the room."
Shen Yuan discovered that Chen Na's breasts were more prominent than last time. As expected, the later the pregnancy progressed, the bigger the cup size became.
I just don't know if she can compete with her sister at this level.
Chen Na blushed a little: "Stop it, you, you should sleep in Xinyu's room tonight."
"I want to sleep between you two sisters."
Shen Yuan thought that the picture was very beautiful. He could touch Xinyu's big ball on the left, and play with Chen Na's new ball on the right.
Well, four big balls.
“But I go to bed early.”
Shen Yuan glanced at Chen Na's big belly and sighed: "Okay, for the sake of the child, I will endure it."
Shen Yuan enjoyed the food fed by the two sisters while chatting casually. At around 8 o'clock, Chen Na returned to the room first, and Chen Xinyu stood up not long after: "Brother-in-law, I, I'm going to take a shower too."
Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Why don't we go together."
"Forehead"
The blush on Chen Xinyu's face instantly spread to her neck: "No, it's not good."
"What's wrong with that? You always help my brother-in-law wash. This time, let's return the favor and let him wash you. Go get your pajamas, I'll wait for you in the bathroom."
Having said that, Shen Yuan walked directly into the bathroom without waiting for Chen Xinyu's consent.
Chen Xinyu could only watch Shen Yuan walk in. She hesitated for a moment, then bit her lip and did as she was told.
However, when she walked into the bathroom, in addition to taking her own pajamas and inner wear, she also took Shen Yuan's pajamas.
Shen Yuan closed the bathroom door and put his hands on his sister-in-law's shoulders.
"Xinyu, you look so beautiful today."
Chen Xinyu was wearing a pink shoulder-less knitted sweater today, revealing a white patch on her chest and shoulders. Only the white shoulder straps could be seen on both sides, making her look pure and sexy.
She also wore a braid today and casually placed it on her chest.
How to say it, it looks like both a girl’s college and a girl’s high school.
Chen Xinyu buried her hot face and said, "I changed it this afternoon."
"Are you wearing it specifically for your brother-in-law to see?"
Chen Xinyu was too embarrassed to answer and could only nod slightly.
"So sensible."
Shen Yuan ruffled her hair. Her petite figure of 160cm made people want to protect her. He then asked, "Can I let my brother-in-law see your inner wear?"
Chen Xinyu looked at the ground and nodded shyly.
"You can take it off yourself this time, okay?"
"Um"
Chen Xinyu raised her charming face, her cheeks as red as ripe persimmons. She bit her pink lips, slowly raised her hands, and slowly rolled up her shoulder-less knitted sweater from her chest to her waist.
Just like that, the white inner layer was exposed to the air, and Shen Yuan felt his mouth dry.
Because the wrapped bulge looked like two snow-capped rabbits that might jump out at any time.
In fact, they were still shaking slightly because of the clothes being pulled up just now.
The fat, whiter than snow, seemed to be waving to Shen Yuan: "Come quickly, come and feel our smoothness and softness." (End of this chapter)
