191 Father Linâs attitude
Lin Li deeply felt the convenience brought by the word â relationship. the specialist consultation, which was originally scheduled for next Tuesday, had come out in less than a day. The good thing was that father Linâs illness hadnât worsened. The recent coughing and other symptoms were only caused by the flu. As long as the cold was cured, the coughing would be fine, and there wouldnât be any other problems.
When doctor li read the report and informed them of the situation, the happiest person was Lin Li. She hugged father Lin tightly for a long time before letting go.
Since there wasnât any major problem after the examination, there was naturally no need to be hospitalized. Therefore, after leaving the hospital, Zhou han drove his âparents-in-lawâ and Lin Li home directly.
When they arrived home, mother Zhou had not left yet. She was sitting on the sofa in the living room with Xiao bin and writing. When she saw them coming back, she quickly came forward and asked with concern, â âIs my in-lawâs father alright?â
Thinking of Mother Zhouâs concern and enthusiasm, father Lin seemed a little cold and awkward. Mother Lin was more natural than father Lin. She only smiled and said to mother Zhou, â the test results say that thereâs no problem. Itâs just a cold. Sheâll be fine after she recuperates. As she spoke, she sincerely looked at mother Zhou and said, â âThank you so much for today. If you didnât help us contact them, we would have been worried for another two days.â
Mother Zhou went forward and directly pulled mother Linâs hand, saying,âWhatâs the point of saying all this? weâll be a family in the future. How can you distinguish between family members?â
Mother Lin just smiled and didnât answer. She turned to look at father Lin, who was standing at the side, only to see him turn his head away a little awkwardly.
Seeing this, mother Zhou said, â in-law mom, in-law dad, itâs rare for you to come over today. This time, you should stay in Jiangcheng for a few more days. Let Lin Li accompany you.
Mother Lin smiled and nodded. Although she didnât know what Zhou han was like, she felt that this in-law was quite good. She was different from the rich lady from Chengxiangâs family. At least she didnât look down on others.
Mother Zhou raised her hand to look at the time, then looked up at mother Lin apologetically and said,âI wanted to spend more time with you and chat with you, but itâs getting late and old Zhou doesnât know that youâre coming over today. He should be back from work soon and I have to go home to cook, so I canât spend more time with you. Iâm really sorry.â
âItâs fine, itâs fine,â mother Lin said politely.
Mother Zhou smiled and nodded. She thought of something and said, after all, Zhou han and Lin Li are already married now. Old Zhou and I originally wanted to take time to visit our in-laws, but now that our in-laws are here, itâs convenient for old Zhou and me. In-laws, why donât we have a meal together tomorrow night? what do you think? â
Hearing this, mother Lin didnât reply. She turned to look at father Lin. In the Lin family, mother Lin made all the small decisions, but the big ones still had to be made by father Lin.
However, father Lin was still in a dilemma. Not to mention the two families meeting for a meal, he still had some opinions about Zhou han.
Seeing that father Lin and mother Lin didnât answer, mother Zhou smiled and said, â look at how impatient I am. In-laws, youâve just arrived, and youâve had a long day. You have to take it easy. Now that youâre in Jiang city, youâll have the chance to eat. As she spoke, she turned to look at Zhou Jiabin, who was sitting on the sofa with a pen in his hand and frowning. She bent down and touched his head, then smiled and said, â âXiaobin, come back to grandmaâs house tonight, okay?â
The little guy raised his head and didnât say anything. He just turned to look at Zhou han. After seeing Zhou han nod, he then turned back to mother Zhou and said softly, â âAlright,â he said.
Mother Zhou reached out to hold his uninjured hand. In addition, she didnât forget to bring the little guyâs Transformers toy. She smiled and said goodbye to mother Lin and father Lin. She also didnât forget to remind Lin Li to pay attention to her diet in the future when her stomach wasnât good. Finally, she asked Zhou han to send them back to the institutionâs compound.
After Zhou han and the others left, only Lin Li and her family were left in the house.
Mother Lin and father Lin were sitting on the sofa while Lin Li went to the kitchen to pour two cups of tea.
After taking the tea from Lin Li, father Lin raised his hand and motioned for her to sit down.
Lin Li sat down on the sofa opposite them. Because she felt a little guilty, she also felt a little uneasy. No matter how she sat, she felt a little awkward. She was afraid that she wouldnât be able to answer her parents âquestions.
Father Lin turned to look at mother Lin, took a sip of tea, and looked at Lin Li. Then, he slowly asked, â Lin Li, tell me the truth. Did you marry him because you were angry? â
Almost without thinking, Lin Li subconsciously shook her head. She looked at her father and said seriously, â âNo, Iâm not.â Although she no longer believed in love after her relationship with Chengxiang, this had nothing to do with Zhou han. She had seriously considered it before. Although her considerations were very formal, it didnât mean that she got married in a fit of pique. She treated marriage as a job, but this didnât mean that she could accept any job. It was only after serious consideration that she felt that this âjobâ was something that she could take on and was suitable for herself. That was why they agreed to sign the âcooperation contractâ.
Even though their marriage wasnât for a simple reason, it didnât mean that she wasnât serious.
How long have you known him? arenât you afraid that youâll regret your hasty marriage? â Father Lin continued to ask.
Lin Li shook her head and looked at her father, saying, â although I havenât known him for long, I can tell that heâs a good person. Although heâs usually cold and unsmiling, heâll use his own way to care and comfort me. Although I donât know if Iâll regret my decision in the future, at least I donât regret marrying him. She didnât know what kind of person Zhou han was in the past, but after getting along with him for this period of time, she could feel that there was a delicate and considerate heart under his cold appearance. Although their relationship was very formulaic and she wasnât smart, she wasnât too stupid either. She could still hear the words of concern he said for her, even though those words were a little cold and emotionless.
If she were to be asked if she had any regrets about this sudden marriage, she knew that her answer would definitely be No.
Father Lin looked at her. Seeing how certain she was, he felt a little comforted. Actually, what could parents ask for? their childrenâs greatest wish was for them to live well. It didnât really mean what kind of person could be worthy of his daughter. If there was really a matter of whether they were worthy or not, then he felt that no matter how good a man in the world was, he might not be worthy of his daughter. This was because no matter how bad a child was in the eyes of parents, they were still the best. As a father, He just didnât want his daughter to make the wrong decision in a moment of rashness and anger. If that happened, it would affect her own happiness. Since she was so certain, what could he object to?
After a long while, father Lin sighed and said to her, â as long as heâs good to you and you donât regret it, then your mother and I have nothing to say. The future is your own. Itâs up to you to choose how you want to live and how you want to go. If you donât regret it and think that this man can spend the rest of your life with you, then you can continue moving forward. We wonât stop you. We can only support you.
dad ... Lin Li looked at her father, and her eyes suddenly became a little wet for no reason. She had always known that her parents loved her. Their love was very obvious, and she had always been able to feel it clearly since she was young. She wanted to cry only because she felt a little guilty and reproached herself. She felt guilty that she had not been filial to them and blamed herself for making them worry about her until now. She felt that she should not have done that.
âMom and dad just want you to live well and not get hurt. Weâre more hurt than you are because youâre hurt.â Father Lin looked at him, the corners of his mouth gradually lifting into a smile. mom and dad are old. We donât ask you to repay us. As long as youâre well and happy, thatâs the best repayment for us, understand? â
Lin Li nodded, and the tears in her eyes finally fell uncontrollably. With a thick nasal voice, she replied, â âIâm sorry, Mom and dad. I always make you worry.â As she said that, her tears fell even more violently.
Mother Lin looked at her husband with a smile on her face. She got up and sat next to Lin Li, pulling her into her arms. She reached out to wipe away the tears that she didnât even know when they had fallen.âSilly girl, youâre already so big and youâre still crying. Arenât you ashamed?â
Lin Li shook her head and reached out to wipe her face. She looked at her mother, then turned to look at her father, her tears turning into a smile.
Looking at his daughter, a smile slowly appeared on father Linâs stern face. He sighed silently in his heart. This time, his daughter was really going to become someone elseâs wife.
After a long while, father Lin slowly opened his mouth and said, â When Zhou han comes back, tell him to ask his parents out for a meal tomorrow.
Hearing this, Lin Li was stunned for a while. She turned to look at him and softly said, â âDad, if you donât want to, we can ...â
you and Zhou han are already husband and wife. Even if we donât hold a wedding, itâs still necessary for our two families to meet. Looking at her, father Lin said jokingly, â at least I have to let the Zhou family know that we have people on our side. They can forget about bullying my daughter.
âPfft!â Lin Li chuckled, her face still streaked with tears. She didnât want her parents to worry, so she blushed and said, â âTheyâre very good to me, they wonât bully me.â The Zhou family was really good to her and didnât make things difficult for her at all. Mother Zhou even treated her as her own daughter. Even if she wasnât by her side at the moment, she could still feel her motherâs warmth.
When Lin Li said that, father Lin smiled and turned to look at mother Lin. âYou see, youâre already protecting them and canât bear for me to say a bad word.â
Hearing father Lin say this, Lin Liâs face turned even redder. She pouted and said, â âI didnât ...â
Mother Lin also smiled and reached out to stroke Lin Liâs head. She said with relief, â thatâs good. This shows that the Zhou family is really good to my daughter!
Father Lin nodded with a smile and didnât say anything more.
