Li family.
The sun shines in the early morning. Li's parents have a very healthy schedule. The old couple gets up at six o'clock to exercise. Now it's seven o'clock. The old couple has finished breakfast, and it is not time for Li's father to go to work yet. As a qualified old boss, he is holding a teacup in one hand and a newspaper in the other, reading carefully and savoring slowly.
Li's mother was pruning the branches of flowers, her hands moving non-stop and talking to him.
"Old Li, our son has been dating the girl the Song family found for over a year, and he hasn't brought her home to meet us yet! Do you think he's serious?"
Father Li took a sip of tea, savoring it carefully, and said slowly, "Why are you in such a hurry? I'll get it back when it's time."
Mother Li put down the scissors, turned around and sat down next to him.
"How can I not be anxious! Your son is already 34! Several months have passed this year, and he will soon be 35! If you round it up, he will soon be 40! How can I not be anxious?"
"Hmph!" Father Li glanced at her indifferently: "My son has his own ideas! Just wait!"
Mother Li's eyes flashed, "Ling He and that girl seem to be living together. Don't you know about this, son? If he wasn't serious, he definitely wouldn't live with a girl. After all, living together means taking responsibility. I think they can make it!"
The more Mother Li thought about it, the more she felt it was plausible. She turned around and tugged on Father Li's arm, "Old Li! What do you think? Should I go check him out? If I can meet him, then so be it. If not, forget it. How about that?"
Father Li pulled down his glasses and gave her a look, letting her figure it out for herself.
"Just go ahead and do it!"
He didn't say he opposed nor agreed, but Li's mother thought it was feasible and immediately got up and went to prepare excitedly.
I have to make some chicken soup under the pretext of nourishing my son!

On the other hand, ever since Song Youyuan recognized the Song family, the Zuo family and the Song family have had very close contact. Zuo's mother and Song's mother also became friends (competitive version), and from time to time they would go to the place where the young couple lived and compete to offer their warmth.
It happened to be on this day that Mother Song and Mother Zuo discussed that they had given the young couple some space for a while and were planning to go over and check on them.
Mother Zuo called Song Youyuan in advance and asked them to come over today, then she took the things and went next door. Now the password of Li Linghe's house is public in this circle of father-in-law and mother-in-law, so she can walk in directly without saying hello, so she can come over to buy some things for them from time to time.
It was still the dishes that Song Youyuan and Li Linghe liked made by Zuo Mama, and the desserts made by Song Mama. The two were busy in the kitchen when they heard the sound of the door opening.
"You're back so soon!" Mother Zuo looked up at the clock on the wall. It wasn't even three in the afternoon yet. She took off her apron and went out to greet him. "You're finishing work so early today? Your mother Song and I haven't finished yet..."
Mother Zuo was stunned when she saw the person coming. It was neither Song Youyuan nor Li Linghe, but her future relative, Li Linghe's mother!
"Um... hello, Mrs. Li!"
She had no contact with the Li family's wife! Although the Zuo family was considered wealthy, they were not on the same level as the Li family. She and Mrs. Li were not in the same circle when it came to socializing with the ladies. This was the first time she had been so close to this lady!
Mother Li was also surprised when she saw her son's future mother-in-law at her son's home. She didn't expect that she had met her son's mother-in-law before she met her daughter-in-law!
Then, Li's mother put on a friendly and kind smile. She didn't want others to think that she was superior and difficult to get along with. After all, her son was 34 years old, and the girl was only 22. It was shameless for an old cow to eat young grass. Even if she, as a mother, could not help in any way, she could not hold them back!
"Hello, I'm Li Linghe's mother, Yu Xi." Li's mother took the initiative to greet him with a smile.
Mother Zuo was a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
Mother Song, who was still in the kitchen, heard the noise outside, wiped her hands and came out.
"Long time no see, Yuxi!"
"Chuan Hui is here too!"
Now it was Li's mother who felt embarrassed.
I met my son’s future mother-in-law, and I met two of them at once!
Son! Come back soon, Mom is a little embarrassed!
However, these people were all very shrewd people. They had attended many of these wealthy wives' gatherings and were the kind of people who could speak the truth to anyone and the lies to anyone. Even if they felt awkward inside, they always appeared to be at ease. It didn't take long for the three of them to start chatting together.
Song Youyuan and Li Linghe were naturally the center of the conversation among the three people.
While chatting about everything, Li's mother turned the topic to what she cared about most.
Mother Li: "My dear relatives, when can our three families officially meet?"
As soon as Mother Li said this, Mother Zuo and Mother Song understood what she meant. She was anxious for the two to get married!
But the older ones weren't their own daughters, so they weren't in a hurry! And they hadn't discussed this matter with You Yuan yet, so how could they give any concrete timeline?
"Oh! Yuxi!" Mother Song sighed, "You know, we just found Youyuan and haven't been together for long!"
Li's mother immediately realized that this meant she didn't agree with the two getting married so early!
This won’t do! Her son finally found a girlfriend, she has to settle down as soon as possible!
"Even if you're married, you can still get along! These days, no young people want to live with their parents. His father and I can't possibly live with them. It's just like now after marriage. They can live wherever they want. Nothing will change. You can get along with each other anyway. You can even let Li Linghe come live with you!"
Li's mother's words were sincere and heartfelt. She was definitely a good mother-in-law. She would do whatever her daughter-in-law wanted, even if it meant letting her son become a live-in son-in-law. As long as the two could get married, it was fine! Where they lived or with whom, what did it matter?
Song and Zuo's mothers were quite satisfied that the boy's mother could say such open-minded words, which was a plus for Li Linghe. However, this did not mean that their daughters had to get married at the age of 22!
It's too early! She's still a child herself!
The three of them kept arguing over this issue, and the final result was that both sides made concessions, depending entirely on the wishes of the two children!
Since they were 80% certain that the other party was their in-laws, they naturally wanted to get along harmoniously. The three of them went to the kitchen together, waiting for the young couple to come back.
Song Youyuan got off work earlier than Li Linghe today. When Li Linghe rushed back from the set, Song Youyuan had already arrived at the door of the villa.
After work, Mr. Li still felt that he should talk to his son, so he called him.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"Are you off work? Your mom went to your place and ran into Yumoto. She's been gone for hours, and I don't know if she met him!"
?
Did his mother go to his place?
Li Linghe panicked immediately. He let his girlfriend meet his mother by chance, and it must have been his mother's plan for a long time. How embarrassed would Youyou be!
In order to avoid her embarrassment, Li Linghe hung up the phone with Li's father and called his girlfriend.
