I'm by no means a softie

"Let's eat, let's eat."

"Man Ning, you two sit here."

Li Yilan in the bedroom fell asleep after drinking milk, and the adults finally sat down in the restaurant to enjoy the belated lunch.

At first, the atmosphere was quite harmonious. Li Peifeng's cooking skills became more and more exquisite, and the delicacies were in front of him, which delighted everyone's tongues. Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi paid some attention to the work and life of several people, and they chatted happily with each other.

, until Xu Manying suddenly asked a question, and the expressions of everyone at the table changed subtly.

"Uncle and aunt, when do you plan to go to Hangzhou after the new year?"

While asking questions, Miss Xu and Wu Wenyue both stared closely at the expressions of the two elders and Zhao Qingge's face.

This may be the main reason why they came to Li's house to pay New Year's greetings. They wanted to know the attitude of Li Peifeng's parents towards Huang Tianxuan.

Huang Tianxuan is about to give birth to a child, and her marriage to Li Peifeng has reached a point where it can no longer be postponed. It is imperative that the Li and Huang families sit together to meet.

At first, Mr. Li's cake paintings were very beautiful and he wanted to hold a wedding for everyone so that they could all become brides without leaving any regrets.

To complete it successfully, it is necessary to get Zhao Qingge's consent, as well as the support and full cooperation of Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi. No one can do it if they don't want to. You can imagine how difficult it is.

However, Huang Tianxuan is pregnant with Liujia after all. According to common sense, for the sake of the baby, there should be less resistance to her wedding to Li. Both Li Peifeng's parents and Zhao Qingge should be more willing to cooperate.

But if even she, a pregnant woman, couldn't get it done, Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying thought that their wedding would probably be ruined. This was a bitter truth.

So in this matter, the two girls Wu and Xu completely put aside their prejudices and even hoped that they could get married smoothly than the two parties involved!

But Zhao Qingge didn't want to, and immediately responded to Xu Manying's probing question: "Why did my parents go to Hangzhou? Why didn't I know about this?!"

Li Qiyuan was about to speak, but was forced to swallow what he wanted to say by the words "my parents".

“Travel!”

Xu Maning smiled and said: "Didn't Peifeng tell you? The scenery is quite nice. Man Ning and I plan to go there after the new year, and also take a look at Tianxuan. We haven't seen her for a few days... We really miss her."

.”

These words were veiled, but the underlying meaning was quite obvious.

As 'love rivals', we are all so concerned about Huang Tianxuan. If she is pregnant with your son's child, how can you, as grandparents, be so cruel as to not see her?

Yu Huizhi's brain shut down in embarrassment, and Li Qiyuan didn't know what to say.

"Have a good meal. We'll talk about things after the new year. There's no rush now."

Li Peifeng spoke up to resolve the embarrassment, but the atmosphere at the dinner table plummeted and could not be saved.

After the meal, Li Qiyuan found an opportunity and called both Li Peifeng and Zhao Qingge to the study. He said solemnly: "I want to talk to you about something."

Lao Li didn't want to postpone the trip to Hangzhou until after the new year. He wanted to know Zhao Qingge's attitude now, otherwise he wouldn't be able to have a good time during the Spring Festival.

Yu Huizhi, on the other hand, accompanied Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning to chat in the living room, and waited for the final result of their conversation.

At the same time, the two daughters Wu and Xu were also doing homework for Yu Huizhi, and tactfully persuaded her that it would be best to go to Hangzhou after the new year.

Yu Huizhi was also helpless. She just said that she could go, but there were too many practical problems. Then she pointed to the study room and said, "Let's wait until they finish discussing it."

This discussion can basically determine whether the two elders' trip to Hangzhou can be started. As long as they go to Hangzhou, Huang Tianxuan and Li Peifeng's marriage will be inseparable.

Going one step further, Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning can use this to deduce whether their wedding to Li Peifeng can be held smoothly.

Therefore, this was destined to be an important conversation that affected the hearts of all parties. Wu Wenyue was very concerned about this, but he was also concerned about another less insignificant matter...

"Ah...Mom, I just saw the necklace and hairpin Zhao Qingge wore today. They are very beautiful!"

"..."

"But I haven't seen her wear it before. Have you seen it?" Wu Wenyue said in a soothing tone. Seeing that Yu Huizhi's expression was stiff, she tentatively said: "It seems that you have seen it before, Mom?"

Xu Maning frowned, thinking about the jewelry on Zhao Qingge just now, and it suddenly dawned on her!

"It's a New Year's gift from me."

Yu Huizhi sighed, admitted decisively, and then took out two prepared big red envelopes from the bag in the closet: "This is for you, mom, it's a little thoughtful."

It’s really just a little thought!

Give her a complete set of gold jewelry, but give us this? Isn’t this different treatment?

Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning looked at each other, feeling aggrieved, but neither said a word.

Yu Huizhi observed the expressions of the two people and suddenly smiled and said: "Hey, I know what you are thinking. In fact, you also have it. Come and take a look."

After saying that, he calmly took out his mobile phone, opened the photo album, and the jewelry design sketches emerged one after another.

"This is?"

Facing the confused looks in Wu and Xu's eyes, Yu Huizhi explained: "I designed a set of gold jewelry for each of you. This is a picture I drew myself. It's just a part. You two haven't finished your part yet."

, because Qing Ge is getting married, so I rushed to work on her set first... Well, don't worry, in a month or two, I will definitely be able to make your set of jewelry. You are welcome to have any ideas.

Mention, I will design it according to your ideas."

"You really want to give these to us?"

"Of course!"

After receiving an affirmative reply, Wu Wenyue's expression suddenly turned bright: "That's great, thank you, Mom!"

Xu Maning also showed a smile and sent a series of rainbow farts such as 'Mom, your painting skills are great', 'Exceptionally strong sense of design', 'You are simply a genius jewelry designer'.

Seeing their smiling faces, Comrade Lao Yu felt relieved. There were too many daughters-in-law and a lot of troubles. Fortunately, she had the foresight and made preparations, otherwise she would have been uncomfortable at this time.

Although Wu and Xu have not received gold jewelry yet, they have received Yu Huizhi's equal treatment and tactful attitude, which is more important than any gift.

She and Li Qiyuan are of the same mind. If she thinks so, Li Qiyuan must also think so, so it seems that it is only a matter of time before the future marriage can be held.

Wu Wenyue, who felt her sense of security rising sharply, took the opportunity to push things along, and politely asked if the two families could sit together to discuss the wedding after she graduated in July this year.

Yu Huizhi thought for a moment and said slowly: "No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, but whether it can develop smoothly, I think the first thing that will bear the brunt is that you don't make the relationship too tense. This is the most important thing. You get along well.

If we are harmonious, everything will be fine. If we are not harmonious, there is nothing we can do as elders."

As soon as the words fell, Xu Maning and Wu Wenyue fell into silence, while Yu Huizhi said seriously: "Actually, the reason why I object to you and Fengfeng maintaining this relationship is not only because of practical factors or ethical issues, but also because it really does not conform to our view of love.

, a normal interpretation of feelings, I think you will definitely not be happy if you continue like this, and you will only make a mess in the future, so I have to object."

"If your parents find out about this matter, their attitude will definitely be the same as mine at first, or even more intense. Because parents all over the world have the same heart, and they all want their children to live a good life.

With happiness, you can gain all the wonderful experiences on the road of life and stay away from those mistakes that fail or make your children sad.”

Wu Wenyue asked hesitantly: "Mom, what's your current attitude..."

Yu Huizhi sighed: "It's been so long, and none of you have called for breakup, and you are still firm in your original choice. What can we say? What's the use of saying it?"

"And although this relationship does not conform to our understanding of feelings, love is your own quality, your own heart and soul... As long as you live a happy life, and go on unswervingly, be the elders'

Even if you don’t understand it, you will gradually accept it.”

Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning were deep in thought. They seemed to have been inspired by these words, and they vaguely understood what methods they should use to overcome their parents' difficulties when the truth came out.

They were thinking far ahead, but the conversation next door didn't go smoothly.

At first, Li Qiyuan really wanted to have a frank chat, but when his daughter-in-law and son actually sat down face to face, he felt guilty and didn't know how to speak, and was caught in the tangle of whether or not to help the villain.

However, during the ten seconds that Lao Li was silent, Li Peifeng had a lot of exchanges with Zhao Qingge in his mind, and the latter expressed his position straight to the point.

"Dad, of course you and mom can go to Hangzhou if you want to. Tianxuan has been pregnant for so long, and you really should go and meet her and her family. I don't have any objections to this. But... Peifeng and I are still husband and wife.

, I have never planned to divorce. So I hope you will always remember this after meeting Tianxuan’s family.”

Li Qiyuan was quite surprised when he heard the first half of the paragraph, but after listening to the whole paragraph, he showed an expected expression: "Of course, what are you doing to bring up the divorce? Fengfeng won't even bring it up. If he dares to bring it up, I'll do it."

Beat him to death... Qingge, just let the child be raised with peace of mind."

As smart as Lao Li, he has already understood the deeper meaning of Zhao Qingge's words.

Go and meet Huang Tianxuan’s parents? Yes.

Get a marriage certificate? No way!

Zhao Qingge was still worried that Lao Li wouldn't understand, so he emphasized: "If Tianxuan's parents talk to you about their marriage, I suggest you ignore it. The best way is to explain that Peifeng is already a married man.

Frankly, to prevent the situation from developing to an irreversible point, and not to let him make the same mistake again and again, otherwise the final scene will definitely be something no one wants to see..."

This is equivalent to a warning: "Don't say anything unforeseen."

What could Li Qiyuan say? He could only nod in agreement, act like an elder, and say some words of support and approval to make Zhao Qingge feel relieved.

But if Zhao Qingge's wishes were followed, how should the Li family explain to Huang Xuantian's parents after arriving in Hangzhou?

Does Li Qiyuan dare to confess the truth about his son? If not, how can he refuse to discuss marriage with the Huang family?

It doesn't matter, I'm not the scumbag who wants to marry four wives anyway, my son will take action!

Li Qiyuan chose to lie down and die, but Li Peifeng, the person involved, remained silent, as if he also chose to lie down, but his inner activities were not what outsiders could understand.

I will take action, but not now!

The two of them had communicated a lot in their hearts just now, and Li Peifeng knew clearly that this was the biggest concession that Zhao Qingge could make at the moment. In other words, her agreement to allow the two elders to go to Hangzhou was the final bottom line.

Further bargaining in front of Li Qiyuan will have no effect except completely irritating Zhao Qingge. It is still early for the second marriage or even the third and fourth marriages. As long as the parents go to Hangzhou, everything will have room for relaxation.

Even if you secretly settled the matter with Tianxuan in Hangzhou, it wouldn't be too late to start Zhao Qingge's ideological work later?

Li Peifeng, who will turn 25 in less than three days, is still young, and he is still optimistic and confident about the future. Even if Zhao Qingge's resolute opposition has caused the five-in-one Great Consummation to come to a standstill, he does not feel that all is lost.

In many cases, things that go against your expectations are not the result, it is just a process. If you persist a little longer, what you want may be not far away. Even if persistence results in a worse situation, you cannot completely lose hope.

Only with thorough persistence can life truly bloom!

"Everything goes well with me. Wife, you can take care of your baby with peace of mind. We can go to Hangzhou to see you in the second grade of junior high school."

With this mentality, Li Peifeng secretly initiated a 'telegram' to Huang Tianxuan in his heart before the conversation ended.

So far, Huang Tianxuan's pregnancy has reached thirty weeks. At the twenty-eighth week, at the strong request of her parents, she asked for leave from her tutor and returned to her hometown in Hangzhou from the capital to prepare for pregnancy. The two have been away from home for half a month.

For a period of time, we kept in touch every day through heart-to-heart connections.

It should be that the relationship and bond between each other has become deeper, or that Li Peifeng has communicated with them heart to heart for a long time, and his proficiency has become higher, so that this skill has undergone some more subtle changes.

Now Li Peifeng can not only do one-on-one, but also one-to-many at the same time. Just like setting up a chat room, he can bring in several girls and communicate telepathically together. The maximum number of people connected can reach five.

But this method of communication is too advanced. The thoughts of several people appear at the same time and it is difficult to tell who is who and who they are talking to. If it lasts a little longer, even the consciousness of 'self' may be a little blurred.

Li Peifeng conducted an experiment once, and the participants all gave negative reviews with palpitations and warned him not to use it again.

Another skill change is that the degree of matching is higher, communication is more comfortable and comfortable, and the thoughts and experiences felt are more nuanced.

For example, right now, the nerve signals of two people span a distance of three thousand miles from Ningyuan to Hangzhou. They are intertwined and transmitted in each other's minds. Countless electrical signals form different pictures. A person's thoughts, ideas, pictures, and even visuals are all different.

, the five senses of hearing, smelling, tasting, and touching can accurately appear in another person's mind... In this case, the longing in a long-distance relationship is also reduced a lot.

Even if one of us is at the end of the world and the other is at the end of the world, we can feel each other's existence in our hearts and have real and genuine communication anytime and anywhere, so there will be no questions like 'what is he doing' or 'does he still love me'?

'Wait for distracting thoughts.

What Huang Tianxuan is more concerned about is whether Li Peifeng can meet his parents with his elders as planned after the Chinese New Year.

So at this time, she was watching a drama and eating fruit at home when she heard Li Peifeng's "telegram", and she asked with joy and disbelief;

"Are you sure? Both uncle and aunt can come?"

"My father will definitely go, but my mother may not. Yilan is only two months old and is not suitable for traveling far away. She still needs someone to take care of her."

"That doesn't matter, as long as uncle can come."

Huang Tianxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then saw the scene of Zhao Qingge and Li Qiyuan talking next to Li Peifeng, and she had some doubts and worries: "Old Zhao seems to be reluctant, you can do more work, after all, she is just pregnant.

She's not young anymore...you have to pay more attention, if she gets angry and gets into trouble, don't blame me then."

She is so gentle and considers me!

Li Peifeng was quite moved and told Huang Tianxuan not to worry about it, and that he would arrange everything. After the conversation was over, everyone came out of the study. He also conveyed "everything went well" to Wu and Xu, who were very concerned about the matter.

similar information.

Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning were half-convinced about this, because although Mr. Li sent a message to them in private, he was peeling sugar oranges for Zhao Qingge openly.

But after eavesdropping on the conversation between Li Qiyuan and Yu Huizhi in the bedroom, and learning that the trip to Hangzhou had been decided, Wu and Xu really believed it, and their dissatisfaction disappeared.

"Husband, how about I go to Hangzhou with you?"

"Then...what should I do with Lan?"

"Leave it to my sister to take care of you temporarily for two days. It doesn't matter if you go early and come back early. Moreover, Fengfeng got pregnant before we were married. Huang's parents may be angry. If you go, I won't go. It seems disrespectful... Oh, say

After all, it’s us who are at fault.”

Well, it would be better if two people go together!

Wu Wenyue and Xu Maning listened at the door for a long time. After learning all the contents of the conversation in the study, they walked back to the living room quietly and tactfully tested Zhao Qingge's attitude towards the two elders going to Hangzhou together.

But Zhao Qingge acted as if he didn't understand and said nothing.

Wu Wenyue frowned slightly and went straight to the point: "What are you going to do if your uncle and aunt go to Hangzhou, hide the information due to the situation, and make a marriage agreement with the Huang family?"

Zhao Qingge was silent for a moment and said calmly: "You don't want to know."

His eyes swept across Li Peifeng's face, and then he looked at Wu Wenyue and Xu Manying. Seeing that they were still asking more questions, he interrupted a little impatiently: "In any case, this matter has nothing to do with you, and we have finished eating now.

, can you two go back to your homes for the holidays?"

Xu Maning looked at Zhao Qingge's two cherry lips thoughtfully, and then whispered to Wu Wenyue: "Do you think she is being harsh or cruel?"

Wu Wenyue frowned slightly: "I don't think even she knows the answer."

Xu Maning raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at Li Peifeng, wanting to know Zhao Qingge's true state of mind from him.

Li Peifeng just smiled and said vaguely: "Ah, yes, yes, there is no need to think so much. The most important thing right now is to have a good New Year!"
