After being together for a while, Lin Lu went out with him to buy a lot of food. From beginning to end, Song Chen never asked the young man what he said to her and pretended to be indifferent.
After buying the ingredients, Song Chen put on an apron and went into the kitchen.
Li Xianglian looked at the food they had bought and asked, "What day is it today?" She remembered that Song Chen's birthday was next week, or, "Xiao Chen, you should celebrate your birthday early."
Song Chen: "We're moving into a new house, so we should celebrate with a good meal and drinks. I hope we can live happily ever after."
Li Xianglian actually agreed with Song Chen's suggestion and said, "Okay, I'll give your parents a glass of wine later and let them see that we are all doing well here."
Song Chen continued, "My mother actually appeared in my dream last night."
Lin Lu didn't know whether what he said was true or not: "Oh, what did she tell you?"
Song Chen took the ingredients out of the bag and began to process them skillfully, while paying close attention to what Lin Lu and her son said, looking like a househusband.
"Let me be nice to you."
Lin Lu glanced at the man and felt that he was dishonest and was not telling the truth.
Li Xianglian took it seriously: "Hey, my elder sister worked hard when she was alive, and she still misses you guys even after she's gone. Xiaochen, what good things did you do in your previous life to have such a good mother in this life?"
Li Xianglian asked herself if she was any better than Song Chen's mother.
Song Chen smiled and said, "Maybe she saved the world in her previous life. Although my mother is good, I hope she won't be my mother in my next life."
This life is too hard, so I wish her a happy, fulfilling and smooth life in the next life.
Li Xianglian: "Hey, my child, we as mothers are different from what you think. I definitely want to be your mother in my next life."
I hope that in the next life, her children will grow up well, and I hope she won't do anything to hurt her daughters.
Lin Lu suddenly asked, "Mom, if my brother were still alive, what would he look like now?"
Li Xianglian didn't dare to imagine this kind of question because the memory was too hurtful.
But in fact, she had imagined it thousands of times in her dreams. If her youngest son were still alive, he would be as old as Xiaobei's master, and would be about the same age as him.
"Why are you talking about this! Let's stop talking about it and talk about something happy."
So resistant? Lin Lu didn't know how to talk to her about this step by step in the future.
I had originally planned to infiltrate it bit by bit so that they could accept it slowly.
It seems that this is not going to work.
Song Chen took over Lin Lu's conversation and said something bold: "Mom, back then, my brother was chased away. Do you think he might not have left yet?"
Li Xianglian was resistant because that day was too dark and she was afraid that she would vent her anger on Song Chen again.
If it weren't for him, his son really wouldn't...
In that case, she and the old man would not have done anything to hurt their daughter just because they heard a few words from others.
So, do you think Li Xianglian won’t feel resentful?
During the time when her daughter was in trouble, she really hated Song Chen secretly for a long time.
Of course she herself was also at fault, but after much thought, she felt that the source of everything should be Song Chen, who was rescued from the flood that year.
That year, three children came home from school...
Because it was rainy at that time and it rained frequently, the river flooded the bridge, and Song Chen accidentally fell into the river while passing by.
Lin Cheng used all his strength to push him ashore, but he himself was washed away by the surging river.
Li Xianglian was also complaining and making a fuss at the time, but the whole village searched the river for several days and couldn't find even a trace of her. The possibility of her being alive was slim.
There is a large pool of water upstream of the river here, and it goes as far as another town downstream.
Since the child was gone, Grandpa Lin Lu immediately decided that Song Chen should be his son-in-law to help carry on the family line. Song Chen's mother was a reasonable person.
She told Song Chen that since he had saved her life, she had to fulfill the filial piety that Brother Lin Cheng should have fulfilled in his life.
Song Chen wasn't mistaken at the time. Li Xianglian really disliked everything about him at first, like a wicked mother-in-law. But she gradually came to her senses and started to treat him better.
"If that's the case, I'd rather lose twenty years of my life."
“Mom, you…”
She spoke so quickly that Lin Lu had no time to stop her.
Song Chen: "Mom, Lulu only has you two, please don't say such nonsense."
Li Xianglian said seriously, "If I can really get Xiao Cheng back, I'd be willing to wait for thirty years, not to mention twenty."
Lin Lu: "Don't talk nonsense, just live well and wait for the day when we find the little brother."
Li Xianglian laughed: "Why are you two suddenly saying such nonsense today?"
She had given up hope.
Song Chen: "Don't they say that if you have hope in your heart, you will have hope in life? Maybe it will really come true. Why can't we just think about it?"
Li Xianglian turned around.
Song Chen and Lin Lu looked at each other, and smiles appeared in their eyes.
Even when Lin Jingbei returned home from school, there was still a strange feeling in the atmosphere here.
The child asked curiously: "What's wrong with you? What are you laughing at?"
It seemed like she started laughing before he even came home.
Li Xianglian: "Xiaobei is back. Your dad is cooking a big dinner for us tonight."
Just this one big meal? Not really.
Lin Lu suddenly remembered something and said to Song Chen, "She's been here for a few days now. Let's go to Jiajia's school to see her tomorrow."
Li Xianglian: "Oh, yes, I almost forgot that little girl is studying here."
After all, Song Chen is Song Jiajia's uncle, and the relationship between the two families is good. The girl has a good personality, and Lin Lu doesn't dislike her. It's okay to ask her to come to the house for a meal when she has time.
Song Chen: "That's fine."
Li Xianglian said, "Then you can also bring me some match boxes. I've been doing nothing all day and I'm really bored. This can help me kill some time."
Lin Jingbei: "That's bad for your eyes. If you're bored, you can go wholesale some snacks and sell them at the school gate. There are quite a lot of students buying snacks after school."
Li Xianglian hesitated, she was worried that she had made a mistake in the calculation, and then all her work would be in vain.
Lin Jingbei saw through her concerns and said, "You can count slowly, or they can count and put the money into the box themselves. From what I've seen, they're pretty conscientious."
There are also dishonest people, but not many.
Li Xianglian became interested: "Can I really do this?"
Sticky match boxes only cost a few cents each, and you can definitely make more money selling these snacks wholesale.
Lin Lu just found a job for her to pass the time so that she wouldn't be so bored, but she didn't expect that she had such lofty ideals.
Li Xianglian directly rejected Lin Lu's suggestion and asked her grandson to take her to select products on the weekend.
Lin Jingbei naturally agreed.
