When Xiao Zhu fell asleep, Xiao Zheng quietly left the room. He let out a breath of turbid air and took out his phone to give Old Lin a call.
"Yes." The phone was connected and Old Lin said lightly.
"Are you at the company?" Xiao Zheng walked downstairs slowly.
"Yes." Lin Huayin said.
"I am at Xiao Zhu's house. She is sick. "Xiao Zheng reported the situation.
"Is it serious?" Lin Huayin asked.
"Just a little cold and fever. I just made a bowl of noodles for her and she took the medicine. She is sleeping now. "Xiao Zheng pursed his lips. "It is probably because of the recent things."
"I will come over." Lin Huayin said.
"No need." Xiao Zheng said half-jokingly and half-seriously. "I am going to buy some food and make a big meal for my sister-in-law. Aren't you interrupting our fun? "
"Can you make a big meal?" Lin Huayin asked indifferently.
"Okay. But you don't have to rush over. Xiao Zhu has just fallen asleep. "Xiao Zheng smiled. "I will go buy some food first. When everything is ready. I will inform you. "
"Yes."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zheng went out to buy food.
Because he had lived with Xiao Zhu for a period of time, he was clear about what kind of dishes Xiao Zhu liked to eat. After buying the main ingredients, he bought a lot of snacks and fruits. He was afraid that Xiao Zhu would not take care of herself and eat fast food takeout every day.
When returning to Xiao Zhu's house, Xiao Zheng found a BMW parked at the door. It was Old Lin's car. Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly, "This Old Lin really can't wait for a second."
When entering the house, Lin Huayin had changed into slippers and was working on the computer. Seeing Xiao Zheng enter the house, she put down the computer and said, "Are they all Xiao Zhu's favorite food?"
"Of course." Xiao Zheng placed all the ingredients into the fridge and brewed two cups of coffee. He sat beside Elder Lin and said. "I have something to discuss with you."
"Mm." Lin Huayin nodded.
"You see, Xiaozhu doesn't want to go home. It was not convenient for a girl to live alone. I caught a cold and no one took care of me, "Xiao Zheng said tentatively. "How about —"
"I'll ask her later." Lin Huayin pursed her lips.
"You're worried too?" Xiao Zheng saw that Old Lin didn't object, so he took a sip of coffee and asked. "I'm the same as you. I'm also afraid that Xiaozhu won't go to our place to live. After all, if she goes to our place, it would be a slap in the face to her parents. "
Lin Huayin took a sip of coffee and said, "I'll cook first." It seemed that she didn't want to mention the Lin family.
Although it was called a feast, most of the dishes were easily digestible. Even the soup was light and tasty. Xiao Zheng didn't like it because it suited the patients.
While Old Lin was busy in the kitchen, Xiao Zheng repeatedly mopped and washed the dust that had accumulated for half a month in the living room. Only when the floor was shiny did he wipe the sweat on his forehead. He exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.
Housework was really meticulous. Once the work was meticulous, it would be tiring. Xiao Zheng was a tall man, but he was served by Old Lin like a master at home. He had never done so much housework. After throwing away the mop, Xiao Zheng threw his body on the soft sofa. He ate a banana and muttered to Old Lin who was busy in the kitchen, "Make one more braised pork later. I need to replenish my energy. "
"Mm."
Old Lin's calm voice came from the kitchen. As always, he used his actions to pass the message.
When Xiaozhu woke up, her body had regained some strength. She didn't know whether it was because she had enough rest or the effect of the medicine, but her cold was suppressed. As soon as she went downstairs, she saw two familiar figures busy in the living room. She was startled. It was her sister and brother-in-law.
"Sister, brother-in-law —" Lin Xiaozhu was touched and surprised. "Why are you all here?"
She thought that when she fell asleep, brother-in-law would go back to the company to work. She didn't expect that when she woke up, not only brother-in-law didn't leave, but even her sister, who she hadn't seen for a long time, also came.
Needless to say, it must be brother-in-law who snitched.
"Are you feeling better?" Lin Huayin approached the small building and asked in a rather gentle tone.
"Much better. I'm sweating. My head isn't heavy. "Lin Xiaozhu nodded.
"Go wash up. We can eat soon. "Lin Huayin said.
"Your sister always cooks your favorite food." Xiao Zheng, who was holding a plate at the side, grinned.
Lin Xiaozhu's eyes were slightly red. She bit her lip and said, "Mm!"
The dinner was very enjoyable. Xiao Zheng led the conversation, and from time to time, he brought up some old things that were regarded as "secrets" during the Pearl period. Lin Xiaozhu pouted and peeked at Lin Huayin's reaction.
Seeing that her sister's face was calm, she let out a long sigh. However, when he thought about it, he realized that he was already working and independent. Why would she need to be afraid of her sister?
In the end, it was the relationship of elder sister for many years that made her subconsciously fear her sister. She didn't dare to be the slightest bit presumptuous.
"Sigh. I really miss the days when I was in the Pearl. "Xiao Zheng took a sip of juice and said with emotion.
In fact, it wasn't just him, including Lin Xiaozhu and even Lin Huayin. Deep in his heart, he also quite missed the life in the Pearl. Simple, no fighting, no need to deal with the headache of the family affairs. His whole body was relaxed.
"Xiaozhu." Xiao Zheng saw that the foreshadowing was enough. He put down the juice and said. "I've discussed it with your sister. Since you don't want to go back to the Lin family now. Why don't you go to live with us? First, you can eat a hot meal, and second, it's convenient to go to work. "
Some words should be stopped at a certain point. If he said too much, he was afraid that it would cause Xiaozhu's reverse psychology. People, they all want face. Who was willing to give charity? Especially Lin Laoyao's daughter.
Lin Xiaozhu heard that, but slowly put away the smile on his face, and said solemnly: "Sister, brother-in-law, I know you are good for me. Also care about my life. But I have decided not to go back to the Lin family. I can't move to live with you. "
When Xiao Zheng heard that, his heart sank.
It seemed that his sister-in-law had also thought of this. She had really grown up.
"Do you know how to cook?" Lin Huayin raised his eyes and asked.
"Ask the cook to do housework." Lin Xiaozhu pretended to be relaxed. "Sister, you are a clean freak, and you are very territorial. You don't want to leave it to others. I don't have such a problem. "
After a pause, Lin Xiaozhu touched his chin and said: "I'm also thinking about hiring a housekeeper and a few servants. I'm living the life of a noble. "
Xiao Zheng and Lin Xiaozhu heard what Lin Xiaozhu said, and they no longer forced it. Xiaozhu had grown up. Even the invitation of her parents could be strongly refused. Not to mention her sister and brother-in-law?
No matter how good their relationship was, they might not be able to change her decision.
After dinner, the three of them sat on the sofa eating fruit and watching TV. It was almost eleven o 'clock, and Lin Xiaozhu yawned and ordered them to leave.
"I can't open my eyes." Lin Xiaozhu stretched and sent Xiao Zheng and Lin Huayin to the door. "Sister, brother-in-law, good night!"
"Take the medicine for another day," Xiao Zheng said in a long-winded manner. "In case the disease recurs."
"I know." Lin Xiaozhu gave Xiao Zheng a supercilious look. "Since brother-in-law became a married person, you have become more and more verbose."
Driving the two away. Lin Xiaozhu leaned against the door, and the smile on her pretty face gradually dimmed and turned into ashes: "I will play the role of sister-in-law."
