Chapter 104 Seeing the Parents

Zhao Guangshui was coaxed by Tan Mingli, she felt relieved a lot, leaned in Tan Mingli's arms and acted like a baby with her:

"What's the matter... Backing me up, it's so annoying."

"Huh? Don't you like it?"

Tan Mingli really liked to hear her call her "annoying" in such a soft tone, and thought it was really nice, so she couldn't help but smiled and looked sideways, raised the girl's chin to see her expression, "Then don't support me, okay?"

She continued solemnly, "It's okay to touch my waist in exchange."

Tan Mingli likes Zhao Guangshui's waist very much. The young girl's waist is slender and flexible, like a pinched moon, very beautiful.She usually likes to pinch Xiao Shui's waist in her hands and stroke it like playing with porcelain.

"Can't……!"

Zhao Guangshui grabbed her wrist to prevent her from touching him.

Sister Li is the best at pretending to be pitiful with her dignified and good-looking face, and her face is serious, she just touches her when she talks, and she works hard. She really needs comfort from her girlfriend and asks her to forgive her. As a result, after groping her, Tan Mingli carried her into the bedroom in a daze, and it was exhausting again. After doing this a few times, Zhao Guangshui solidified his memory and never let Tan Mingli touch her in the daytime again. .

She blushed and tore off her skirt, bit her lip and stared at Tan Mingli, "Didn't you say, didn't you say that you're going to see Mom and Dad this afternoon? You still..."

Sister Pear is still like this.

Mingming Li's elder sister just used this as an excuse not to let her kiss, but now she wants to touch her... Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps, it's so annoying.

"Then this one won't have a seal, even if it does, it will be covered by the clothes, so you can't see it."

Tan Mingli was in a good mood, he bent his eyes to watch the girl arranging her clothes, and said softly, "Besides, I obviously like you too, don't you? "

"No way!"

One sentence made Zhao Guangshui embarrassed, trying to prove his innocence, "I didn't like it..."

At most, at most, her waist is very sensitive, and there is also a reason why sister Li can't touch it well.

She originally thought that Sister Li would pet a small animal, similar to smoothing a cat's fur, but it was actually a kind of... um...

"is it?"

Tan Mingli raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, her expression softened, she turned her head slightly and said softly, "Then tonight, don't cry and beg me—"

With a blushing face, Zhao Guangshui gently climbed onto her shoulders and kissed her, and let her go immediately, and evasively moved his eyes away, softening his voice and begging in a low voice:

"Don't say it during the day, Sister Li."

She said some...very...excessive things at night, but how could Sister Li say them during the day!That, that is completely different...!With her current shame, she couldn't bear this level.

"Then don't say it."

Tan Mingli laughed, hugged her firmly in his arms, lowered his eyes to look at her carefully, the more he looked at her, the more he liked her, he couldn't help but smiled, bowed his head and kissed her, and said softly:

"Others are duplicity, but you are duplicity, Xiao Shui."

After being warmed up like this all morning, Zhao Guangshui was much better than when he woke up this morning. It was not until he was standing in the elevator of Tan Mingli's parents' community that he started to get nervous again.

She looked at Tan Mingli pressing the elevator button, looked very anxious, lowered her head and pinched the hem of the skirt, pursed her lips and did not speak, just quietly glanced at which floor she was on.

"Don't be nervous, Xiao Shui."

There were only the two of them in the elevator. Tan Mingli gently held her hand, which was cold to the touch. She couldn't help but frowned and felt distressed. She held her hand even tighter and said in a low voice, "If you are really scared, Let's not go, okay? I'll take you home."

In fact, according to her thinking, it doesn't matter whether she sees her parents or not. It's just that the domestic customs seem to have this practice. In order to be formal and to show importance, she doesn't want to leave this link to Xiaoshui. But if Xiaoshui is really nervous, then It's okay not to go.She believes that her parents will also understand.

"Do not……"

It's all here, but what's the matter when you stand at the door but suddenly retreat and say you can't go in?What's more, the other party is still an elder, and she is also sister Li's parents.

Zhao Guangshui shook his head and whispered, "It's okay... I can do it, sister Li, don't worry about me too much."

Before coming here, she repeatedly asked Sister Li about her parents' preferences. Tan Mingli just smiled lightly, noncommittal, and didn't say much, but said that her family likes to drink, so Zhao Guangshui wanted to bring a bottle of wine or something As a gift, Tan Mingli softly refused.

"You don't need to bring gifts, Xiao Shui."

Tan Mingli raised the girl's chin, rubbed her chin with her fingertips, and said softly, "You live with me, not with my parents, why are you so nervous? Hmm?"

"Instead of asking them what they like, why not ask me what I like, okay?"

Her eyes were like a soft breeze, and she said softly.

She deliberately used a calm tone - this is a very gentle and subtle way to comfort.

Zhao Guangshui clearly understood the deep affection and thoughtfulness hidden under her soft words, his heart was filled with emotion and love, he gently threw himself into Tan Mingli's arms, and rubbed the woman's neck, a little awkward and a little proud , whispered:

"Do you still need to ask this? I know...you like me the most."

In the first 19 years of her short life, she was full of mistrust and insecurity about everything, and she didn't even believe in herself very much, but she could boldly and unquestionably believe that Sister Li liked her.

Tan Mingli was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and then smiled very gently and relaxedly.

She lowered her head, gently kissed Zhao Guangshui's hair, and admitted in a low voice:

"Yes, I like you. I search all over the world, and you are my favorite."

She was really happy to let Xiao Shui say this with such confidence and certainty.

Zhao Guangshui hugged her and smiled sweetly.

She knew that elder sister pear liked her the most in the whole world.

The elevator doors opened.Tan Mingli tightened Zhao Guangshui's hand, looked dignified and calm, looked straight ahead, raised his tone and said softly:

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Whoever dares to bully my girlfriend, I'll bully him, how about it?"

She said such childish words with such a reserved face and voice, which sounded very cute. Zhao Guangshui was amused by her deliberate joke, relaxed a lot, took her hand and nodded obediently.

The two of them were still holding hands until the door opened and did not let go.

Contrary to Zhao Guangshui's expectation, Sister Li's parents are a very kind person.

Papa Tan wears tortoiseshell glasses and a spirited white shirt. With a smile, he is handsome and has a very gentle temperament. He has the feeling of an old intellectual in the last century, upright and handsome.Tan's mother, on the other hand, seems to have more foreign blood than Sister Li, with brown eyes and long chestnut hair, she is also a rare beauty, but she speaks Mandarin with a soft Jiangcheng accent, and she smiles very gently.

Zhao Guangshui was relieved a little - she knew that Sister Li's father was a biologist, and her mother was a well-known sociology scholar. She originally thought that Sister Li's parents were the kind of people who looked very elite, especially serious. That kind, I’m still very nervous. I’ve been cramming for the past few days, watching “Rural China” and “The Evolved Brain”, which made Tan Mingli laugh all the time, pinched her cheek and said softly, It's not asking you to defend a thesis, what to do with such hard work.

Tan's father and Tan's mother are very enthusiastic towards Zhao Guangshui, decent and respectful, well-trained, and make people feel like a spring breeze. They will not be warm enough to make people uncomfortable, but they will never make people feel left out. They turned on the TV very gently. , Sit with them in the living room and chat with them.

The topic was also casual and natural. Papa Tan asked Zhao Guangshui which Chinese poet she liked the most with great interest. Zhao Guangshui thought about it and answered "Du Fu" obediently. So An, he nodded and smiled at Zhao Guangshui in embarrassment until the bewildered mother Tan couldn't bear to pinch Father Tan.

Usually at home, Mingli grew up abroad, and even learned Mandarin slowly after returning to China, not to mention reading those ancient Chinese. Although his wife is good at Chinese, she is not interested in those old papers. People chatted with him about this, and finally caught Zhao Guangshui today, and was pleasantly surprised to find that although she is young, she has a deep foundation in Chinese studies and unique insights. .

Mingli's vision is really good, Papa Tan thought happily.

"Old Tan, don't show off, can't you talk to Xiao Shui about something else? Return Du Fu, and I will return tofu."

After beating her husband unceremoniously, Tan's mother turned around very kindly, and said softly to Zhao Guangshui, "Xiao Shui, there is Xi Shi tofu tonight, do you like it?"

This is indeed her favorite dish - Zhao Guangshui is flattered, even if she is in her own home, no one will take care of her taste and cook a special dish for her.

Grandpa is afraid of spoiling her and teaching her to be arrogant, but mother doesn't know what she likes to eat at all.

She couldn't help but subconsciously glanced at Tan Mingli, and seeing her wink at herself with a little pride, she knew that sister Li must have told her parents about her taste in advance.

Zhao Guangshui couldn't help being a little ashamed for making her elders so troublesome, she pressed her knees and nodded, "I like it, thank you for your trouble."

She didn't dress up very much today, she was still the same as usual, wearing a creamy white short-sleeved shirt, a cherry red plaid skirt, and sitting on the sofa with her legs upright, her hair was black and soft, she was focused and relaxed when looking at people Seriously, he will lean forward a little according to the other person's words, and nod slightly in approval from time to time. The whole person looks very well-behaved, like a beautiful and delicate animal.

Tan's mother had never seen her photo before, but today was the first time she saw her, and she immediately fell in love with Zhao Guangshui - she liked this kind of young girl who looked obedient and sweet the most.In a sense, Tan Mingli's vision can be regarded as inherited from his mother.

The more she looked at Zhao Guangshui, the more she liked him. All her previous worries about Zhao Guangshui's family background disappeared when she saw her—with her experience and vision, she could tell at a glance that this was a sincere and good boy, and he was the same as Mingli. A good match, she thought.

My daughter knows it well, she knows that Mingli just looks gentle and easy to talk, but in fact she is strong in her heart, has a righteous mind, likes to make decisions by herself in everything, her heart is deep and difficult to understand, everything does not show on the surface, others can't handle it, but just Suitable for lovers like Xiao Shui.

After being with Xiaoshui, Mingli is much more popular than before.

Tan's mother glanced at her daughter who was watching Zhao Guangshui softly, and nodded with some relief.

The dinner was very sumptuous, and most of the dishes on the table were Zhao Guangshui's favorite dishes, as well as golden hairy crabs. Papa Tan specially brought rice wine to accompany Zhao Guangshui. Also drink juice with her.

Tan Mingli naturally put on gloves to help Zhao Guangshui open the crabs, and gathered a snow-white pile in a small bowl, then pushed it and the sauce dish to Zhao Guangshui, and whispered expectantly:

"This crab is very good, Xiao Shui, it was made by my father. Try it and see if you like it?"

Although her handwork is not very good, she is very good at dismantling crabs. She can dismantle crabs very neatly. She can even make a butterfly out of crab shells, which she proudly handed to Zhao Guangshui for her to see, hoping that Xiaoshui would praise her.

In front of the elders, Zhao Guangshui was a little embarrassed to be dismantled by Sister Li so naturally, and quietly looked at the expressions of Tan's father and Tan's mother before he dared to take it, and said "thank you" in a low voice with red ears.

Ever since she met Sister Li, she drank water without twisting the lid, ate only nuts, fruits were always cut into small pieces just enough to eat, and shrimp and crabs were always shelled—and at that time she even Didn't fall in love with Sister Li.

After falling in love, she felt that Sister Li was more attentive to her.Her good things are often not publicized, but silently fall to the small things, moistening things silently like spring rain, and she is very thoughtful and careful in every aspect.

She is very grateful for the kindness that elder sister Yu Li treated her, but...in front of elder sister Li's parents, isn't this too good?Zhao Guangshui pursed his lips uneasily, and was still a little afraid to eat.

"Why don't you eat it? Is the food not to your taste?"

Although Tan Mingli was tearing apart the crabs, she had been paying attention to her. Seeing that she didn't move her chopsticks much, she couldn't help but stop, and got closer to her. She lowered her eyebrows and asked in a warm voice, "Don't you like it? Or don't you have an appetite?"

"I like it..."

Seeing Tan's father and Tan's mother coming over to hear the reputation, Zhao Guangshui was so nervous that he nodded quickly to express his attitude, "Uncle's cooking is delicious, I like it very much."

The fragrance from the woman's body gently embraced her, making her ears flush.

Zhao Guangshui squeezed his knees in shame—Sister Li was too close to her...

Mom and Dad are still here, but her heart can't help beating because of her lover's approach.

Such a shy little girl, Mother Tan saw a little red on her ears, and smiled kindly, and quietly poked her husband under the table to let him look at the sweet little couple opposite.

It's so cute, no wonder Mingli likes it, she thought with a smile.

Before leaving, Tan's mother and Tan's father were both very reluctant to part with Zhao Guangshui. Tan's father gave her a sapphire seal carved by himself, asking her to come and play more in another day, and Tan's mother took Zhao Guangshui's hand and gave it to her. She stuffed a red envelope, and Xu Xu asked:

"Xiaoshui, Mingli, I grew up watching her. She is good at everything, but she is too smart. She likes to make decisions for others, and she likes to play with people. Don't spoil her, she makes mistakes. What's wrong, you just punish her, huh? Don't feel bad, she is just a black-hearted sesame glutinous rice ball, she just looks decent, but she is actually very bad."

Hearing Tan Mingli by the side, he let out a "hey" and wanted to tell his mother what was wrong with him, so Zhao Guangshui nodded lightly, obediently agreed, and looked at it with a bright smile. Glancing at her, he turned around again:

"Sister Pear is sometimes a bit indecent...but I like it very much. Don't worry, I will be with Sister Pear well."

"As long as Sister Li still likes me, I will always be with her."

Zhao Guangshui said softly like a promise.

The young girl's promise is very moving, and there are no gorgeous words, but every word seems to have been held in the bottom of her heart for a long time, and she said it solemnly, word by word, with a kind of precious seriousness and sincerity , so that people can not but believe her words.

Tan's mother was deeply touched, she patted the back of Zhao Guangshui's hand lightly, her eyes were a little sore, she really wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, she just said softly, "That's great."

It's great that Mingli can meet such a nice girl.She thought her daughter would be alone for the rest of her life.

It's not that she doesn't believe that Mingli can live a good life even if she is single, it's just that life is so lonely, it's too hard to be alone, as a parent, she still can't avoid it, and she looks forward to having a confidant to accompany her daughter. She eased the loneliness a little bit, adding some happiness and comfort.

Now it seems that Xiaoshui is the one who can be with Mingli for a lifetime, and she is also sincerely relieved and happy for her daughter.

Zhao Guangshui was still very happy until she got home. Today was a very important day for her. It was also a great event to meet Sister Li's parents. She suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Sister Li's parents are very good people... Zhao Guangshui thought while hugging the quilt.

Although we only got along for a while, I can feel that Sister Li's family atmosphere is very warm and harmonious. Both Tan's father and Tan's mother are very funny in speaking, gentle and caring for her, which greatly eased her feelings about meeting her parents. Uneasy and restless.

Perhaps only such parents and families can educate and cultivate a person like Sister Li.

She could also feel that Sister Li deliberately emphasized that her parents are one family, and she and Sister Li are another family, two independent small families, not father-in-law or mother-in-law or anything else.

This is not only to prevent her from feeling emotional and reminding her of her parents, but also to make her feel equal, to let her understand that there is no traditional Chinese-style power relationship between her and Sister Li's parents, so don't be too nervous.

Sister Li knew very well that she didn't know how to deal with this kind of relationship, so she simply changed the concept subtly, emphasizing other identities and positions instead.

She doesn't want Zhao Guangshui to seek the so-called "home" feeling from her parents, but believes that she herself can bring her enough comfort.And she did.

Sister Li is so kind...Zhao Guangshui sighed softly, feeling like his heart was soaked in warm water, a little swollen and uncomfortable, but more of a flowing touch and warmth.

Her tenderness seemed to have no end.

Zhao Guangshui thought this way again.

When Tan Mingli came out after cleaning up, she saw the girl waiting for her with the quilt in her arms. She couldn't help but soften every inch of her face. She turned off the light and sat beside her, gently holding Zhao Guangshui's hand.

The bright moon hangs high outside the window, and the bright moonlight sprinkles down generously, shaking like water, with a cold fragrance.

"Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiao Shui."

In the soft and pale moonlight, Tan Mingli said softly.

Thinking about it carefully, it has been more than a year since Xiao Shui came to her at the end of July last year.There was nearly half a year of separation between them, and the days when she and Xiao Shui got along day and night were only more than half a year.

More than half a year... In fact, it is not a long time. Tan Mingli silently estimated in her heart that it accounted for about [-]% of her current life.

But such a small proportion of time is the happiest and happiest time she has ever spent.

Time itself is meaningless, but it was Xiao Shui who brought the meaning to her.

Before meeting Xiaoshui, her life was a smooth road where the end could be seen at a glance, a quiet lake without ripples and ripples for many years, and Xiaoshui seemed to be some kind of foreign object, so clearly divided her quiet life into two parts. two parts.

Like a road sign or a boundary marker, when she looks back on the past, she will divide her life into "before meeting Xiaoshui" and "after meeting Xiaoshui".

Two percent...Tan Mingli said these words silently in her heart.

In the future, this proportion will continue to increase.One day, Xiaoshui's time with her will become the biggest and most important part of her life.

Just thinking about it made her feel happy.

"happy mid-Autumn Festival."

Zhao Guangshui lowered his face, kissed the back of the woman's hand naturally, raised his eyes and stared at her brightly, "Sister Li, I like you very much today too."

It's been over a year... how time flies.She remembered that at this time last year, she had just escaped sadly from Meishi. Although Sister Li knew everything, she didn't ask any questions. She just quietly accompanied her to watch the moon and gave her a handmade bookmarks.That was the first time she received a Mid-Autumn Festival gift.

Later, she discovered that Sister Li is a very romantic person who likes to give her gifts. No matter what the time is, she can always find a reason to give her something, which makes her feel touched and helpless.

Tan Mingli laughed happily, but couldn't help being a little proud - no matter who was liked by such a good girl, anyone had reason to be proud.She smiled and said softly:

"I know. What day did you not like me?"

Xiaoshui likes her the most every day, just like she likes Xiaoshui the most, she knows it very well.

"oops……"

Zhao Guangshui was embarrassed, but this time he didn't continue to say what he didn't mean. Instead, he nodded and admitted while holding back his embarrassment.She stared at Tan Mingli, and said softly with certainty, "I like you every day, only you, and you most. Really."

She never lied, especially to Tan Mingli.

Every time Xiaoshui confesses, he always does this, using the simplest words to express his most sincere feelings.But maybe this is the simplest and most beautiful words, Tan Mingli thought.

Is there any woman in the world who doesn't like to hear her lover say "like" or "love" so sincerely and straightforwardly?Even she is still not immune.

She raised Zhao Guangshui's face, and they kissed quietly in the moonlight.

"It's too bright...Sister Li...I..."

The clothes had been pulled up to the ribs, so Zhao Guangshui nudged Tan Mingli gently, "Pull the curtains, okay?"

Even though she has been close to elder sister Li many times, she is still shy, and she is too embarrassed to continue doing it if she is too bright.Not even moonlight.

"it is good."

Tan Mingli was a little reluctant to let her go, but she still agreed gently, and finally got up and carefully closed the curtains after sucking the tip of the girl's tongue.

The room suddenly darkened, and Tan Mingli approached her with a smile, "How do you feel now, Xiao Shui?"

"It's much better...thank you, Sister Pear."

Zhao Guangshui knew that the next step was to be serious..., so he lowered his face in embarrassment, but when the woman really got close, he couldn't help but climbed up to her shoulders, and hugged and kissed her passionately.She has never been able to refuse her.

"are you free tonight?"

Tan Mingli raised the girl's chin to have a closer look, her voice was dignified and dignified, then she smiled and bent down to kiss her ear, and said softly:

"Take you to the moon."
