Looking at her tangled and hesitant expression, I couldn't help but be stunned. I couldn't think of anything that could make her struggle in the whirlpool of hesitation.
I took a deep breath, mentally prepared myself, and chuckled, "You won't tell me I'm pregnant, right? Don't be nervous, I'm willing to take responsibility."
"I'm so pregnant with you!"
Lin Feifei rolled her eyes, with a trace of bitterness on her lips, "My mother called me today and said that my cousin wants to let the child live with us during the winter vacation. They have been living in their hometown, and the child wants to come to the big city to visit."
I was startled, "How old is her child?"
"fourteen!"
"Then the parents are coming too?"
The corners of Lin Feifei's mouth tilted up, with a helpless expression on her pretty face, "Well, yes! Otherwise, who else can take care of her children? We all go to work."
"Oh oh oh, do you have a good relationship with your cousin?"
Lin Feifei nodded lightly, "My cousin and I have a pretty good relationship. I used to stay at her house during the winter and summer vacations. It can be said that we grew up together, but I am annoyed by my mother, and she did not discuss this matter with me. , so I agreed on my own initiative.”
I remained silent and didn't say anything. I didn't comment on her family's affairs. From her attitude, I could feel her overwhelming resentment.
I hesitated for a moment and said, "If you're not happy, just refuse!"
Lin Feifei held her forehead, with a sad look on her face, "It would be great if I could refuse. My mother has agreed to it, and I have a good relationship with my cousin. I am too embarrassed to say not to come."
I don’t have any feelings for her so-called cousin, and I can’t express my opinion directly about her relatives, so I can only comfort her:
"Since I'm sure I can't refuse, I can only persuade myself to be more open-minded. We both work, so we usually keep out of sight."
Lin Feifei sighed, "I hope so!"
I had no idea about relatives coming to stay at home for a while, so I didn't take it seriously. But after we left, Zhou Shutong asked me to go back with her and get back the cosmetics sample she gave Lin Feifei.
I was a little worried about Lin Feifei's mood. As soon as she heard that there were trial packs of big-name cosmetics, she wanted to push me to Zhou Shutong's house.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I glanced at Zhou Shutong, who was covering his mouth and snickering, then looked at Lin Feifei, and said with a bitter smile: "It's midnight, and we've both been drinking, so you're not afraid that something will happen to us? You're so big-hearted!"
Lin Feifei made a sweet "chee" sound, "Maybe something really happened and she gave up on you."
"..."
Good guy! This girl is teasing me in disguise about my inability to fight!
It's not uncommon for friends to tease each other, but it's rare for a couple to be able to joke around, like Lin Feifei's.
Falling in love with a carefree girl like her is stress-free and won't be boring.
I followed Zhou Shutong home half-heartedly. I sat on the sofa and watched her squatting in front of the cabinet and rummaging through the cabinets.
"found it!"
Zhou Shutong smiled and held several cosmetic samples in her hand, which were all trial samples sent to her by the brand.
"You go back and let your Feifei try the effect. If it works, I will keep it for her as a returning customer."
"Don't be so polite all the time, she has so many cosmetics!"
Zhou Shutong smiled sweetly, "We are all friends and neighbors, so why are you so polite?"
"I mean, think about me too."
"..."
Zhou Shutong rolled her eyes, and after saying she knew it, she seemed to be hesitant to speak.
I was startled, "Huh? Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Zhou Shutong looked at me deeply, and I felt a little uncomfortable when she looked at me. .
"Don't you not like what I said! Feifei's relatives came to your house with their naughty children to spend the winter vacation. They may not be as optimistic as you think."
I was a little stunned for a moment, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Shutong paused, "You two are used to being free. Relatives come to live at home, and your life is suddenly interrupted. You definitely won't
Adapt, not to mention having a child. It’s okay if the child is well-behaved and sensible, but you’ll be in trouble if you meet a naughty child, so be mentally prepared first! "
"Why are you so experienced in this area?"
"Because my sister's naughty children used to be sent to me during the summer and winter vacations, and I was fed up with it. I'm afraid this will affect your relationship with Feifei."
I smiled disapprovingly, "How will our relationship be affected? Why don't you just come and stay at our house for a while!"
Zhou Shutong curled his lips, "If you don't believe me, I'll throw you away. I'm just reminding you to prepare yourself mentally. I'm afraid you'll be troubled when I come."
"It's not as exaggerated as you said, right?"
Looking at her serious face, I suddenly felt that this matter was not so optimistic.
"Of course it's not an exaggeration. If you two want to get married, the collision of the two families is essential. Just wait and see! If any of your relatives comes to our place, they will live in your house, so you should prepare it in advance Be mentally prepared."
What Zhou Shutong said made me feel anxious. I tried to convince myself that since I was already with Lin Feifei, I had to try to accept the other person’s family. But the ideal was full and the reality was skinny. Her cousin On the first day with my children, I was no less resentful than Li Gui.
This day, I was broadcasting live when I got home from get off work. When I opened the door, I suddenly found two pairs of shoes on the floor.
I raised my head and saw that besides Lin Feifei, there was also a pretty woman and a little boy at home.
Lin Feifei introduced it to me.
Her cousin's name is Tang Yue, who is thirty-nine years old this year, and her child's name is Li Zimo, who is fourteen years old. Listening to the tone of Tang Yue and Lin Feifei's chat, her temporary plan has changed. She will send it here today and go back tomorrow to take care of it alone. The child was placed at our home.
Lin Feifei and I looked at each other. Neither of us had any experience in raising children, so we couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Tang Yue saw what we were thinking, and said calmly: "Zimo is fourteen years old and has the ability to take care of himself. Just go about your business. He can take care of himself."
I glanced at Lin Feifei secretly, but she didn't say anything, and I had no right to express my opinion.
Facts have proved that Zhou Shutong's worries were unfounded, because soon, this naughty kid began to act like a monster.
Tang Yue and the others came all the way, and Lin Feifei wanted to show her kindness as landlords by saying they would go out to eat, but Tang Yue thought it was a waste of money and insisted on eating at home, so Lin Feifei and I went downstairs to buy groceries.
When we came back from shopping for groceries, Li Zimo was leaning on the coffee table with a paintbrush and drawing.
I got closer and took a closer look. The painting was very good. I won’t paint it next time.
Everything was normal at first, but the more he painted, the more excited he became, and he even painted it on the coffee table, as if he had turned a blind eye.
I couldn't help but frown. The coffee table belonged to the landlord. He had scrawled on it. If it couldn't be wiped off, I would have to pay for it if I moved in the future.
I couldn't help but remind him, "Kids, you draw on paper, don't draw on the table."
He raised his head and glanced at me provocatively, then regarded my words as air and continued to scribble...
