The next day.
Li Li is on leave today and is going to the hospital to pick up his mother.
In the morning, when he got up, Su Beibei was already up. Li Li pushed open the study door and saw Su Beibei sitting in front of the computer, typing rapidly.
He placed a glass of milk next to Su Beibei's computer desk and asked her, "Why are you up so early?"
Su Beibei said: "I feel inspired this morning and I want to finish writing this book before the New Year." Su Beibei has extremely high requirements for her works. After writing a novel, she has to revise the entire text at least four or five times, and sometimes she can completely reject the whole thing during the revisions.
Li Li kissed her forehead, then stood up and said, "I'm going to pick up my mom from the hospital. Do you want to come with me?"
Su Beibei shook her head.
When Li Li was about to leave, he heard Su Beibei say, "I cleaned up the guest room where the nanny stayed last night."
Li Li understood what Su Beibei meant. He stopped and turned back to tell Su Beibei: "I bought the house next door. We will live next to each other in the future. It will be convenient for us to take care of her without disturbing each other."
Su Beibei suddenly looked up, her eyes sparkling, like a dull pearl that suddenly became bright and shining.
Li Li patted Su Beibei on the head and said, "I hope you understand that I really care about you. I can't choose my own mother, but I will do my best to give you a stable life. Beibei, don't be discouraged by me."
Su Beibei felt mixed emotions when she heard this. She nodded and said, "I believe you."
"Okay, I'll go get Mom."
"Yeah. I'll make lunch and wait for you guys to come back."
"good."
-
Li Li went to the ward after completing the discharge procedures. The nurse had already packed up her mother's things, and both bags were full. After Li Li opened the door and walked in, he found that there was a guest today, someone he hadn't seen for a long time.
She was a woman in her early fifties, wearing a silk dress and her hair dyed dark brown and styled into waves. She was dressed quite elegantly, but she didn't have the aura of a lady at all.
This is Li Li’s aunt, Dong Yu, who is also Li’s mother’s sister-in-law.
Li Li's father's generation consisted of only two brothers. Li Li's uncle ran a mattress factory in the square, and the family was considered well-off. After Li's father committed suicide by jumping off a building years ago, his uncle and his family seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth. Their phone calls were unreachable, and they were nowhere to be seen.
It was not until later when Li Li became the general manager of Zeus International and had a promising future that his uncle's family took the initiative to contact them.
Li Li has no good feelings towards his uncle's family, but Li's mother continues to keep in touch with his uncle's family because of their old relationship.
Because Dong Yu takes good care of herself, she looks more than ten years younger than Li's mother even though she is only five years younger.
Li Li was a little surprised when he saw Dong Yu. He strode in and called out coldly, "Auntie, when did you come?"
My aunt's face wrinkled with laughter as she praised me warmly and exaggeratedly, "Ah, A-Li, it's only been a year since we last met, and you look so much more energetic. This big boss is just different."
This flattery hits the horse's leg.
Li Li smiled disapprovingly and said to his mother, "The discharge procedures have been completed. Mom, I'll take you home."
Li's mother asked him, "Where are you going back to?" Before Li Li could answer, Li's mother said, "No one has lived in my house for a month. Have you cleaned it for me?"
Li Li was about to speak when his aunt Dong Yu chimed in, "Hey, sister-in-law, what are you talking about? You've luckily managed to come back alive this time, so how could Ali be willing to let you live alone? That's unfilial! He's definitely going to take you back to live with him!"
Li's mother snorted coldly, "I don't get along with that vixen. I won't live with them."
Li Li's face suddenly turned cold and he scolded in a low voice: "Mom! That's your daughter-in-law!" In front of his aunt, he called his daughter-in-law a vixen. Li Li didn't know what was going on in his mother's brain.
Mother Li felt humiliated after being scolded. She uttered a sarcastic "Yo!" and said sarcastically, "You still say she's not a vixen! That time you lied to me and said you were working overtime at the company, but you actually went to the zoo with that vixen! Li Li, I'm lying in the hospital suffering, and she dragged you to the zoo. Does she even care about me as her mother?"
Li Li frowned and subconsciously defended Su Beibei, "Mom, we are husband and wife. It's only natural for me to take my wife and child to the zoo. Besides, I'm busy with work and haven't taken them out to play for half a year. A day out is not too much."
"Besides..." He narrowed his eyes and asked suspiciously, "How did you know this?"
Li's mother sneered, "You've already forgotten your mother since you got a wife, and you still have the nerve to ask!"
Seeing that something was amiss, Dong Yu smiled warmly and said to Li Li, "Ah Li, don't be angry. This is all my fault. I accidentally let something slip. Beibei went to the zoo a while ago and posted a message on WeChat Moments. I was just talking to your mom about your grandson Li Ao, so I dug out photos of him at the zoo and showed them to your mom. Hey, you know what, your Li Ao is really handsome and smart. He's a promising young man in the future!"
Seeing Li Li's unhappy expression, Dong Yu said again: "I didn't know you took your wife to the zoo and didn't tell your mother the truth. If I knew, I wouldn't do such a stupid thing!"
Dong Yu seemed to be trying to persuade them to reconcile, but every word he said was meant to sow discord.
Li Li originally looked at Dong Yu with a cold gaze.
Dong Yu was so scared that he almost shut his mouth.
Li Li curled his lower lip slightly and reminded Dong Yu: "Aunt, if your mouth can't speak, then don't open it. Just close your mouth tightly and put it on your face as a decoration."
