Chapter 996: Grandma told me that Dad is unreliable (7)
Helian Xun raised his head to look at her, his face slightly apologetic as he said,” Xiaoli, I’m sorry. I’ve searched all over D City, but I couldn’t find Chunlan.”
“How is that possible!” Xia Xiaoli frowned and suddenly raised her voice.” Did you buy it or not? Chun Lan was sold in many places at this time!”
On the sofa in the living room, Li Yu turned around when he heard the voice and frowned slightly.
“I even went to the flower and bird market, but I really couldn’t find it.”Helian Xun took off his coat and walked over to support her.
Xia Xiaoli was so angry that she flung his arm away.” I’m so angry!” You can’t even buy a pot of spring orchids! If I wasn’t pregnant, I would have driven out to buy it myself. Why would I need you to do that?”
Li Yu stood up and whispered,” Xiaoli.”
Xia Xiaoli pouted and walked over.” Mom, look at him. It’s your birthday today. I only asked him to prepare a pot of spring orchids. He can’t even do such a small thing.””
Li Yu smiled at Helian Xun, and then said to Xia Xiaoli seriously,” Alright, it’s just a pot of flowers. Mom doesn’t care. Don’t speak to Ah Xun in such a bad tone, understand?”
Xia Xiaoli was still a little disappointed. Li Yu had been in a bad state of mind ever since she was sensible. He either pretended to be crazy or was depressed and did not speak. After the whole family came back to D City this year, he had actually recovered after resting for a few months. Now, he was exactly like a normal person. Therefore, on this special birthday, she really wanted to give her mother a surprise and give her mother a pot of her favorite orchid.
Previously, she had repeatedly instructed Helian Xun to buy flowers several days in advance, and she had even called him this afternoon to specially remind him. She hadn’t expected that he still couldn’t even handle such a small matter. Was she really not important at all in his heart? Did he not take his words to heart at all? She was really angry! He was also very disappointed!
Xia Xiaoli pouted, her face full of depression.
Helian Xun walked over.” Mom, I’m sorry. I went to a few places today, but I couldn’t find any spring orchids. I’ll look for them tomorrow…”
“No need.” Li Yu said with a look of comfort,” It’s fine as long as you have this filial piety. Don’t you still have a few pots of orchids at home? It doesn’t matter.”
“Also, actually…Orchids are your father’s favorite.”
When Li Yu said this, Xia Xiaoli couldn’t help but feel slightly embarrassed. She pouted and looked at Li Yu.” Mom, I’m sorry. Then…” What do you like the most?”
Li Yu smiled.” I’m fine with anything, as long as the two of you live well.””
She glanced at the unhappy Xia Xiaoli, and then whispered to Helian Xun,” Ah Xun, Xiaoli is pregnant now. Pregnant women have a bigger temper, so you must be more tolerant and not be angry with her.””
Helian Xun chuckled.” Mom, don’t worry. I’ll never be angry at Xiaoli.””
His voice was neither loud nor soft, so Xia Xiaoli could hear him.
She pursed her lips and looked a little embarrassed, but she felt much better inside.

Huafu Ruiyuan.
Uncle Zhou drove straight to Jing Muchen’s house.
As soon as the car door opened, Jing Yanxi got out of the car with the little turtle’s box in his arms.
Li Menting instructed Uncle Zhou to move the flowers to the living room. She held Su Ruowan’s arm and carefully walked into the living room.
.
In the living room, Jing Yanxi had already changed into indoor slippers and was showing his newly bought spoils of war to Jiujiu.
Ever since Su Ruowan became pregnant, the floors of the villa were covered with long fur carpets. At this time, the two little fellows were lying on the carpet on all fours. Their four big eyes stared at the little turtle in the box. Their eyes were full of curiosity. They did not even bother to greet Su Ruowan when she came in.
Soon, Uncle Zhou brought the pot of spring orchids and two large flowers into the room. Li Menting happily instructed Uncle Zhou to place the spring orchids in the corner of the living room by the French window.
“In-law, look at this pot of flowers. When I saw it in the flower shop just now, I thought it was really beautiful. It’s especially suitable to be placed at home in this season.”Li Menting said proudly,” By the way, I’ll get someone to send a few more pots over. It’s better to put more plants in the house, especially since the weather is getting warmer soon. All kinds of flowers are blooming. It’s very pleasing to the eye.””
Li Qing nodded and looked at the pot of spring orchids, but her face was stunned for a moment.
“Mother-in-law. In-law?” Li Menting called out twice but didn’t respond. She couldn’t help but frown at Li Qing.
“Mom.” Su Ruowan gently pushed Li Qing.” What’s wrong with you?”
“Ah?” Li Qing came back to her senses and stared blankly at Su Ruowan.
