Chapter 663: , Gunpowder Barrel Explodes
Building No. 27.
Going up to the second floor, Li Heng saw the red receiver on the coffee table at a glance, picked it up and put it to his ear, finding that the call had already been hung up.
Without much hesitation, he immediately dialed the number of the Li family in the Drum Tower of Beijing.
"Ding-a-ling..."
"Ding-a-ling..."
The ringing sounded twice and it connected, and a middle-aged woman's voice came from the other side: "Hello, who is this?"
"Mom, it's me." Li Heng said.
"Manzai, it's your birthday today, did you make anything delicious?" Tian Rune asked with concern.
Li Heng said with a smile: "I bought quite a lot of good ingredients, and I'm making dinner in the kitchen. Shihe said you called, so I ran over."
Tian Rune asked: "You ran over halfway through cooking, who took over the kitchen?"
Don't blame her for thinking this.
Because in her cognition, it seemed that the girls around him all had very good family conditions and were all delicate, so not many of them knew how to cook.
Li Heng said: "Shihe is helping to cook."
Tian Rune was surprised: "That Zhou family girl? A hand that plays the piano, cooking for you?"
Li Heng said: "Isn't it, her cooking skills are quite good, not worse than the food I make."
Actually, Tian Rune had heard Mai Sui mention it, saying Zhou Shihe knew how to cook, but she hadn't tasted it properly.
Pondering for a while, Tian Rune lowered her voice and asked: "Manzai, tell Mom the truth, did you provoke this girl?"
Li Heng asked: "Why do you ask?"
Tian Rune said: "Intuition. This girl is so beautiful, if you didn't go and bare your teeth to tease her, I would feel you aren't my son."
Li Heng: "..."
Look at what she said, as if the old man had to flirt with every beautiful girl in the world?
That Zhao family girl was beautiful enough, when in Bai Lu Village, she made his little heart jump, but he was also well-behaved.
He couldn't continue the topic of Zhou Gu Niang, otherwise saying too much would lead to mistakes, Li Heng came up with a substitution, answering irrelevantly: "It's your precious son's birthday today, even Song Yu came, Mom, say something happy."
Sure enough, hearing Song Yu, Tian Rune immediately shifted her attention: "So far away, Song Yu ran to your school?"
"Hmm, look, people have a heart for your son." Li Heng showed off.
Tian Rune started to worry for him: "Hanhan didn't come? Yu Laoshi isn't there?"
Li Heng said: "Xiao Han is there. Yu Laoshi sat for a while at noon and returned to the Yu family, after all, it's the Dragon Boat Festival today, she also has to accompany her family in the evening."
Tian Rune asked cautiously: "Then Hanhan and Song Yu, didn't they have a dispute?"
Li Heng said: "How could that be? No, Mom, don't worry. It's my birthday today, I'm the biggest, they are all people with cultivation."
Tian Rune didn't quite believe it: "I haven't seen Song Yu in person, so I won't comment. Hanhan's tongue is very sharp, can she really not have disputes under the same roof with others?"
Li Heng answered: "She also got along very well with Mai Sui before, they didn't bicker."
"That's because Mai Sui let her have her way. Every time Hanhan came to Fudan University, Mai Sui went to sleep with the Zhou family girl, don't think Mom doesn't know." Tian Rune pointed out the essence of the matter.
This was too embarrassing, the black-bellied wife's tongue was really capable of tossing, Li Heng laughed and changed the subject again, asking: "Mom, before when you called, was Chen Zitong there?"
Tian Rune's heart skipped a beat, feeling that the "brother-in-law" would cause trouble.
She frowned and said: "At that time I had just finished talking to Zhou Shihe on the phone, and then it was a coincidence, Zitong in the courtyard pushed the door in at this time. Zitong came in and asked me: Aunt Tian, today is brother-in-law's birthday, Sister Lanlan has already gone to Shanghai, why didn't you follow her to Fudan University?"
Tian Rune told her son her guess: "Lanlan went to the Mai family in Shaodong yesterday, in order to hide her itinerary, she casually said to Jiao Sect in the store that she was going to Fudan University to celebrate your birthday. I guess Jiao Sect told Zijin and Zitong during a chat, and then this happened."
Li Heng didn't think much, asked: "Is Zijin there?"
Tian Rune said: "She left not long ago, probably about thirteen or fourteen minutes. She sent some zongzi to your dad and me, and after eating lunch, she was picked up by Chen Xiaomi, saying she had to go to her grandfather's house in the afternoon."
Li Heng patted his forehead in annoyance, today he was only worried about whether they would have conflicts? He actually ignored Zijin.
He asked: "Where's Dad?"
Tian Rune said: "Your second sister isn't in Beijing, the pastry shop business is too busy, there aren't enough hands, your dad went to help. I'm going too in a while."
Mother and son chatted for about 20 minutes before ending the call.
Putting down the receiver, he thought for a while, and called Huang Zhaoyi, but it didn't connect.
Later he tried to contact the high school English teacher, but still no one answered.
Whoa! These people, why are they so busy? None of them are at home?
Li Heng looked at his watch, 4:39.
Later he didn't dare to delay any longer, and ran back to Building No. 26.
At this time, Xiao Han brought Sister Xiao Lin, Chief Editor Liao, and Old Man Ba to the second-floor living room.
In the first-floor living room, Chen Xiaoyu, Bai Wanying, Ye Ning, and Zhang Haiyan were playing cards; Zhang Zhiyong was watching the cards on the side.
Wei Xiaozhu, Dai Qing, and Sun Manning all went to the kitchen to help.
For a time, the large kitchen was crowded, chatting and laughing, very lively.
Walking into the kitchen, Li Heng looked at Song Yu, and later went straight to Zhou Shihe's side, asking: "How many dishes are left to stir-fry?"
Zhou Shihe knew them like the back of her hand, saying: "5."
Li Heng rolled up his sleeves, "Thank you for your hard work, go outside and rest for a while, leave the rest to me."
Zhou Shihe looked at him, took off the apron from her body and handed it to him, and decisively left the kitchen, returning to her own house to wash her hair.
Don't know if it was an illusion?
Once Zhou Gu Niang left, everyone in the kitchen suddenly felt much more relaxed. Sun Manning's speech was louder than before, looking full of confidence.
Sun Manning asked Li Heng: "Hey, it's this time already, why hasn't Yu Laoshi come yet?"
Li Heng answered: "Yu Laoshi has something to do and went home, she can't come for dinner."
"Ah?" Sun Manning didn't quite understand, thinking to herself, is Yu Laoshi stupid? She didn't even attend Li Heng's 20th birthday?
But later thinking of Song Yu and Shihe, this girl felt it was better that Yu Laoshi didn't come, otherwise if they really fought, the scene would be hard to clean up.
They knew that Shihe and Yu Laoshi were always at odds, if something ignited the conflict between the two women, Li Heng might not be able to stop it.
After finishing all the trivial matters, Wei Xiaozhu, Dai Qing, and Sun Manning left very tactfully, leaving space for Li Heng and Song Yu.
Waiting until there were no outsiders around, Li Heng said: "My mom asked about you on the phone just now."
Song Yu washed her hands and looked at him.
Li Heng asked in a negotiating tone: "Do you really have to wait until after graduation to meet my parents? Can't you meet them in advance?"
Staring at his eyes quietly for a while, Song Yu pulled her hair with her right hand and said: "I'll consider it again."
She originally wanted to say "Wait until you are sure you can marry me, then I'll meet Uncle and Aunt," but when the words reached her lips, she felt it was a bit cruel, so she changed her mind. ===== CHAPTER 664 =====
