Chapter 453
Mr. Li kept calling him "Teacher Ning Buzhi" which made Li Shuo want to take off his vest immediately.
But his wife's foot had almost recovered recently and her fighting ability had also improved.
On the night of New Year's Eve, he didn't want to be beaten, so he decided to postpone it for a while, at least until he had safely passed the New Year.
The whole family sat together and continued to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Li Xuejun suddenly received a text message from Fang Lanying, saying that she wished him a happy new year.
Li Xuejun stared at the text message interface for a long time, but he didn't reply to the other party after all.
Since he had decided not to look back, he shouldn't give the other party any hope and be more ruthless.
He was about to put his phone in his pocket when a call came in.
It was the boss lady of the knife company in Lucheng.
He hesitated for a moment, but still got up and walked aside to answer the call.
The other party called to say Happy New Year to him, and also said on the phone that it was very lonely this year for only her and her children to celebrate the New Year.
Li Xuejun understood the other party's thoughts, but he really had no intention of remarrying.
He chatted with the other party politely for a few words and then took the initiative to end the call.
Xie Jingshu kept looking up at the TV. She didn't pay any attention to the content on the TV. Instead, she could clearly know Li Xuejun's every move and couldn't help but pay attention to him.
She kept reminding herself that this was not okay. The other party was her niece's father-in-law and she couldn't have any thoughts about Li Xuejun.
But people are like this. The more they warn themselves in their hearts that this is not okay, the more they can't control their hearts.
She clearly wanted to divert her attention to watch the Spring Festival Gala, but she couldn't help but pay attention to Li Xuejun.
This made Xie Jingshu feel depressed. Even when the actors in the skit segment threw jokes to make the people in front of the TV laugh, Xie Jingshu couldn't laugh.
She even had an impulsive idea that she might as well go to Li Xuejun to express her feelings immediately. She couldn't help but like him a little bit and let him reject her directly.
Let her give up this idea.
After all, Li Xuejun's attitude was very clear. He would not get married and find a new partner, let alone her, the sister of her mother-in-law.
If she expressed her feelings, she would be rejected with a 100% probability.
Xie Jingshu thought that she would never back down because of anything, but when she thought about saying something to Li Xuejun, she didn't even have the courage to stand up and find him.
She wanted Li Xuejun to reject her so that she would give up, but she was also afraid that Li Xuejun would reject her.
It was really too contradictory.
After Li Xuejun hung up the phone, he returned to his seat, took the initiative to pick up the teacup, and poured tea for Xie Jingshu.
"Aunt, I'll add more tea for you."
Xie Jingshu was already panicking, but pretended to be calm. She took the teacup with both hands and smiled elegantly: "Thank you, father-in-law."
Li Xuejun replied with a gentle smile: "You're welcome."
"By the way, aunt, we still have guava that you like in the kitchen. Do you want to eat it? If you do, I'll go get it."
Li Xuejun remembered that Xie Jingshu loved to eat guava, especially the red one. He saw it was very good in the market two days ago, so he bought it back.
Xie Jingshu was slightly stunned when she heard this. When the throbbing in her heart was about to surge out again, she suppressed it at this moment.
She smiled and thanked him generously: "Okay, thank you, father-in-law."
She paused: "Father-in-law, you continue watching TV, I'll go by myself."
"How can that be? Guests are guests. How can I let my aunt-in-law do it by yourself while I go?"
Xie Jingshu: "..."
Her expression suddenly became colder: "Then thank you for your hard work, father-in-law."
"Not hard, not hard."
Li Xuejun got up and left. After walking two steps, he realized it.
Why did he feel that his aunt-in-law seemed to be in a bad mood suddenly.
What did he say wrong just now?
He thought about it carefully, but he didn't figure it out until he walked into the kitchen.
Until he entered the kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, took out the fruit to wash, and saw the cherries and thought of his second son Li Hao who loved to eat cherries.
He sighed secretly.
This year's Spring Festival was quite happy.
It's just a pity that the second son Li Hao did not spend the New Year with him.
He still remembered that when Li Hao was eleven years old, the boy ate big cherries at a classmate's house and came back to ask Fang Lanying to buy some.
Because cherries were expensive, Fang Lanying bought 5 cherries. He ate all five cherries by himself and didn't leave any for Li Shuo and Li Shu.
He came back and said a few words to his son, thinking that he should think about his family.
Li Hao had a bad attitude and said that there was no need for him to be morally kidnapped by him. Human nature is selfish. He would not consider others but only himself and would satisfy himself first.
Even if he made a lot of money in the future, he would not keep a brother like Li Shuo around.
Even if he, as a father, was old, he would still support him or not depending on his mood.
That time, Li Xuejun was angry with his son.He was so angry that he didn't consider whether the other party was deliberately saying angry words to provoke him, and he grabbed him and beat him up.
It was the only time he beat him up, and it was also the most serious time. He broke the bamboo pole as thick as a thumb.
Later, Fang Lanying came and snatched the bamboo pole away.
Because of this beating, Li Hao didn't call him dad for half a year.
Even though he later learned from Fang Lanying that it was Fang Lanying who told him not to leave any for his brother and sister, and not to buy him after they finished eating, and bought some cherries, and specially gave some to him.
The man took the cherries, but didn't call him dad at all.
It took a long time before he started calling.
Li Xuejun thought of this son, and he was angry and amused at the same time.
I don't know how this brat is spending the New Year now.
Fang Lanying didn't stay with Wu Wenfeng, so he naturally couldn't spend the New Year with Wu Wenfeng, and he didn't stay with Fang Lanying. What did he eat for the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening?
These two days, when I called him, he said he was very busy and hung up without saying a few words, and sometimes he didn't even answer.
Gancheng.
In a single apartment.
Li Hao sat in front of the computer desk, watching a movie, waiting for the instant noodles that had just been soaked for two or three minutes on the table.
The movie was a bit boring, and he didn't want to watch the Spring Festival Gala at all, so he simply opened his mobile phone and browsed his Moments for a while.
Today's Moments also had a strong New Year atmosphere, with all kinds of New Year's Eve dinners and group photos.
Li Hao was like an emotionless like-clicking machine, liking each of his friends in Moments.
Almost all of his friends in his friend list were people he specially selected to stay.
He liked all the way down.
Until an ID that had not been seen for more than four years suddenly posted a dynamic, which made him stunned for a moment.
This time, he did not like it, but carefully clicked on the photo in the other party's Moments.
In the photo, there was a warm photo of a family of three. The pretty woman was holding a two or three-year-old child in her arms, smiling gently.
He stared at the photo on his phone, his eyes went from excitement at the beginning to shock, and finally became dim and unwilling, and his eyes began to redden.
The fingers holding the phone turned pale.
Finally, he smiled, but his smile was a little sad.
