Quick Wear: Cousin, Come to the Bowl Quickly

I don’t know what Mother Lin said when she went in, but in the end Li Xu was finally released by the merciful Father Lin. However, both of them had the same ugly look on their faces.

Naturally, Father Lin felt sorry for his precious daughter and was dissatisfied with Li Xu's actions. Li Xu's mood was much more complicated. He felt sorry for Lin Xi, hated himself, and felt guilty towards Father and Mother Lin.

However, when Lin Xi asked him what his father Lin had said to him, he just shook his head, indicating that his father Lin was just concerned about his situation in recent years. As for the words his father criticized him with, and the words he told him about Lin Xi's experiences back then, he kept them all in his heart and didn't say much to Lin Xi.

The first day they returned was spent in a weird atmosphere with Lin's father sulking, Li Xu feeling heartbroken and blaming himself, Lin's mother playing peacemaker, and Lin Xi trying to please her father and mother.

Early the next morning, as soon as Lin Xi opened her eyes, she was scared half to death by the crowd of people surrounding her bed.

"Oh, the big star finally woke up."

"Xixi, do you still remember me? I am the wife of the nephew of the third daughter of your second uncle's eldest aunt's son. I held you in my arms when you were a child."

"Sister Xixi, why do you look different from what you see on TV?"

"Xixi, please sign an autograph for my disappointing little daughter."

"Xixi, look here. Auntie will take a picture of you so that my sisters who have never seen the world can also see our big star."

……

Seeing Lin Xi open his eyes, the people in the room were like a lighthouse that had discovered a lost ship. More than a dozen pairs of eyes, like searchlights, all shot their bright eyes towards Lin Xi, who was sleeping on her back with her hair all over her face.

"Hello, Auntie, can you please move your phone away from my face first?"

"Hello, my second uncle's eldest aunt's son's third daughter's nephew's wife. I remember you. You held me in your arms when you were a child."

"Qianqian, don't pull your aunt's quilt. Your aunt will give you a red envelope later."

……

Lin Xi lifted the quilt up to cover most of her face, and then greeted everyone one by one, appearing as calm as an old dog but actually panicking inside.

"Oh, you are indeed a big star. You speak so nicely and politely."

"That's not true. Our Lin family has excellent genes."

"She's so pretty and speaks so sweetly. I wonder which boy she'll marry in the future."

……

Looking at the excited expressions and excited tones of the aunts and uncles, Lin Xi chuckled, then smiled and tactfully said that she needed to change clothes first and would go out to talk to them later, and then she asked the group of people to leave her room.

After confirming that everyone had left, Lin Xi tiptoed out of bed, gently closed the door, and then locked it. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, took out her cell phone and sent a message to Li Xu to ask if he had woken up. When there was no response for a long time, she turned to her mother to ask about the situation.

"My dear Ms. Li, why did so many people suddenly come to your house? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Mother Lin, who was being pestered with questions by her aunts and uncles, heard her cell phone ringing. She took out her phone as if she had been pardoned, said she would go and answer the messages, and then left the group of people to Father Lin, who was also in a difficult situation.

"It's all your father's fault. Look at his circle of friends."

Seeing this, Lin Xi quickly opened the circle of friends, and among the pile of enthusiastic New Year greetings, she found her father’s unique circle of friends.

"My precious daughter is back. She seems to have grown up in the blink of an eye."

There were two photos below the sentimental copy. One was of Lin Xi, who looked about two or three years old, sitting in front of the TV and watching TV while biting her fingers. The other was a photo taken last night by him at some point in the dark, showing her leaning on her mother's shoulder and watching TV from the same angle.

Lin Xi couldn't help but feel warm in her heart and chuckled, but just as she was about to save the photo her father took, she found that the size of the photo seemed to be wrong. The whole photo looked too narrow, as if it had been cropped in half.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. If she remembered correctly, Li Xu was sitting next to her and her mother last night. Her father had included Li Xu in the photo, and then cropped him out when posting it on WeChat Moments.

Lin Xi felt overjoyed when she thought of the childish behavior of her father, who appeared serious on the surface but was actually extremely petty in private.

Just at this time, my mother sent another message, "Once he posted this on WeChat Moments, everyone knew you were back. Someone came to knock on the door early in the morning, and I couldn't stop him."

"Hahaha, it's okay, it's okay. Dear Ms. Li, please hold on for a while. I'll change my clothes and come out later."

"Okay, dress up a little, otherwise when they take pictures and post them online, it will affect your image." Mother Lin also reminded the female star herself to pay attention to her image management.

Ding.

Lin Xi put down her phone and was about to look for clothes in the suitcase when the message alert sound suddenly rang. She picked it up and found that it was Li Xu.

"I'm awake. I was just changing my clothes."

Lin Xi thought about it, sent the photo she had just saved from Lin's father's circle of friends to Li Xu, and then joked: "It seems that in Mr. Lin's mind, you can't appear in the same photo with me. The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrade, you still have to work harder."

"Okay, I'll do my best."

Seeing that he replied so straightforwardly, Lin Xi was a little unhappy. "You agreed so straightforwardly. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I will try my best to appear in this photo with you." Lin Xi waited for a while, and Li Xu sent her a picture.

Lin Xi looked at the red notebook on the screen, the corners of her lips couldn't help but rise, and she replied, "This child is teachable."

"Teacher Lin taught me well." Li Xu replied instantly, and then sent another message a few seconds later, "There are a lot of relatives outside. I'll go out and greet my aunt and uncle first."

"Okay, I'll change my clothes and come out."

In the living room, a middle-aged woman wearing a bright red sweater and with a shrewd face was trying to get close to Lin's mother with saliva flying. "Oh, Xixi's mother, if you ask me, girls really change a lot when they grow up. They become more and more beautiful. When I held Xixi in my arms, she was still a little snowball, and in the blink of an eye, she has grown into such a big and beautiful girl."

Mother Lin had a polite smile on her face, but her mind was working frantically. After a long time, she finally matched the face in front of her with the person in her memory. If she remembered correctly, the person in front of her should be a distant relative of her husband's side. Ever since she politely rejected him a few years ago when he asked her for money because of poverty, they rarely contacted each other again.
