The four of them ate and chatted for nearly an hour and a half before it ended. Li Mo waited for them to drive away before slowly walking towards the community. At the end of September, the temperature in Kyoto is still very hot. The outside of this snack street is full of stalls selling various barbecue delicacies, and there are a lot of diners drinking and chatting.
Looking up at the sky, a cold moon hung in the starry sky, and the heat in Li Mo's body subsided a lot.
Tomorrow will be a good day.
Qin Sirui returned to the Qin family compound. Mr. Qin had not rested yet. Mrs. Qin and Qin Yali were chatting and watching TV.
"Grandpa, grandma, aunt, are you still awake?"
"You kid haven't come back yet, how can we sleep peacefully? Did you go out to meet some friends? Are you so happy?" Mrs. Qin patted the sofa next to her and asked Sirui to sit next to her.
"Grandma, what do you think?"
Mr. Qin glanced at her and said casually: "Apart from the fact that you will be happy to see Li Mo, I can't think of anyone else you would go out to meet."
"Sirui, are you going to see Xiao Mo?" Qin Yali straightened up while sitting on the sofa.
"I won't tell you, grandma, I went to take a shower."
Qin Sirui left the living room as if running away.
"Hahaha, it seems that I have to find time to chat with Shi Lao." Shi Lao suddenly laughed.
"Old man, Sirui and Xiao Mo are really having trouble?" Mrs. Qin was a little worried. "Sirui is kind-hearted, but the second child and his wife are very troublesome. Will Mr. Shi and the others have any objections?"
Mr. Qin thought for a moment and then said in a deep voice: "Then wait a little longer. The two children will really come true. I believe Sirui will be very happy in this life. I also believe that Xiao Mo's child will not treat Sirui badly."
.........
Li Mo got up early the next day. He didn't wait for twenty minutes at the station exit when he saw four people walking out talking and laughing.
"This way."
Li Mo jumped up and waved.
"Xiao Mo, I've delayed your sleep today." Yanagawa Kei walked up to him and patted his shoulder, "I heard Professor Zhu say that you have become a lecturer at Beijing University. Well done, Master is proud of you. .”
"Xiao Mo, when your master heard the news, he was so happy that he didn't sleep all night. Look at how angry he was."
"I'm already happy."
"Master, Master, I'm not sure yet." Li Mo said hurriedly.
"Xiao Mo, don't be humble. Your master's half-level skills can go to the National People's Congress as a visiting professor. No matter how bad you are, you can still be worse than your master."
"Okay, okay, can I, the master, just admit defeat?"
Yanagawa Kei smiled and begged for mercy.
"Dad, Mom, give me the gift box."
"It's just a few clothes, let's go."
Get in the car and drive all the way over the viaduct towards Shilao Courtyard.
"Honey, please call Yingying. That damn girl didn't answer the phone last night and doesn't know what she was doing?"
Song Yuanning took out his cell phone and dialed his daughter's number. It rang for half a minute and was about to hang up automatically when a lazy voice came from the phone.
"Yingying, you're not awake yet?"
"Mom, I slept so soundly. I had a party with my classmates last night and played a little late. Mom, I will sleep a little longer and call you back when I wake up. Bye."
Song Yuanning frowned slightly, the older this girl got, the more disobedient she became.
"What did Yingying say?"
"I'm still asleep. Call me back when you wake up."
Shiyi, who was sitting next to her, smiled and said, "It's only after six o'clock now, which is the golden time for girls to take beauty sleep. Let's wait until she is full."
"That girl has a bad memory. Today is Xiao Mo's birthday. She won't forget it, right?" Yanagawa Kei suddenly said.
"Master, I have rarely celebrated birthdays before. Not to mention that Yingying might forget it, even I almost forgot it."
He was absolutely right. If Qin Sirui hadn't sent him a birthday music box, he would have really forgotten his birthday.
It was still early and there was no traffic jam along the way. By the time they arrived at the courtyard, Shi Lao and the others had already prepared a lot of breakfast, including fried dough sticks, eggs, nutritious porridge, crispy side dishes, etc.
"Shi Lao, hello, madam." Yanagawa Qing stepped forward to say hello when he saw Shi Lao.
"Haha, we are all a family, don't be so polite. You guys must be hungry after riding all night. Sit down and eat."
Li Mo was not polite, he picked up a fried dough stick and took a crispy bite.
"Grandma, the fried dough sticks were fried at just the right temperature today. Your cooking skills have far surpassed Comrade Li."
Professor Yu tapped the back of his hand with his chopsticks and said, "Your master and your wife haven't served it yet."
Shi Lao asked everyone to sit down and eat as they pleased.
"When it comes to breakfast, there are a lot of delicacies in the alleys. But my favorite is a bowl of slightly spicy tofu puffs and two crispy fried dough sticks. Then there is a bowl of thick rice porridge. , paired with two pickled oily salted duck eggs, it feels really good to have a full stomach.”
Li Mo said while eating.
"You brat, after you said that, I suddenly felt that the breakfast made at home was tasteless." Shi Lao said, dumbfounded.
"Grandpa, I will accompany you to eat out next time." Li Mo peeled a white-water egg for Shi Lao, "Will uncle and aunt come back for dinner at noon?"
"Well, we made an agreement with them last night. If Xiaobin can't come back in time, Yunli will be home at about ten o'clock. Today is your birthday. Your grandma and I have discussed that we will have a meal by ourselves as a family instead of going to the big house. It's a big deal. After all, there are too many people paying attention to you, and it's difficult to invite everyone or not, so you might as well live it yourself."
"This is best. In fact, I'm afraid of trouble. But I have invited a guest. I will introduce you formally when she arrives."
Li Mo said casually while taking out the salted duck eggs.
The speaker has no intention, the listener has intention. Several elders at the table looked at each other, and Shiyi asked again: "Xiao Mo, who are you inviting? If it is an honored guest, we should be prepared in advance."
"No need to prepare anything deliberately, you and dad have seen it before."
Li Zhongsheng thought suspiciously for a moment, and suddenly a figure appeared in his mind. He asked tentatively: "Is it Miss Qin?"
"Old Li, you mean Miss Qin Sirui from Uncle Qin's family?"
"All I can think of is her." Li Zhongsheng spread his hands.
Li Mo drank a bowl of millet porridge and said with a smile: "Dad is quick to respond. I want to formally introduce Sirui to you today, as well as Master and Mistress."
The word 'formal' is said with a bit of emphasis.
"Son, are you and Sirui in love?" Li Zhongsheng looked at his son, as if he was impressed by him.
"Dad, Mom, I quite like her." Li Mo said solemnly.
"When did this happen?"
Shiyi asked uncertainly.
when?
Li Mo didn't know, but the ordinary but extraordinary birthday gift two days ago had touched his heart. When she appeared in front of him last night and sang happy birthday to him, he suddenly realized that he had had her shadow in his heart since he didn't know when.
Some are surprised and some are worried.
Yanagawa Kei didn't care, but Song Yuanning's eyes showed disappointment. She had always hoped that her daughter could be with Xiao Mo. Although she had realized that they were not compatible before, at this moment, she still felt empty inside.
"Xiao Mo, it's your business if you like someone. The key is whether Qin Sirui likes you too. Don't end up with wishful thinking and make a big joke." Li Zhongsheng's worries are not unreasonable. If it's just you If a person thinks this way, but they don't mean anything to you, wouldn't it be a big mistake and a big joke?
At this moment, Shi Lao said: "Zhongsheng, let him solve the child's matters by himself. We don't have to worry about him."
"Zhongsheng, dad is right, let him handle Xiao Mo's matters by himself."
Shiyi signaled him to eat quickly and talk less.
