Siheyuan: I live next door to Xu Damao, my last name is Cao
Chapter 191 Yu Li's Parents' Concerns
While Qin Huairu was busy working on the house, Cao Wei was also not idle.
When Lou Xiao'e's courtyard was under construction, there were many people and it was difficult for Cao Wei to get through.
During this period, the emotional bond between Cao Wei and Yu Li became closer and closer, and their relationship was like a bud breaking through the soil under the warm spring sun, growing at an astonishing speed.
The two often travel together, strolling in the bustling streets and alleys, feeling the liveliness and vitality of life; or wandering in the quiet and secluded park trails, enjoying the freshness and comfort bestowed by nature.
Whenever the breeze blows and the sun shines on Yu Li's silky hair, Cao Wei always can't help but reach out and gently hold Yu Li's soft and warm little hand.
At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and they were the only ones left in the whole world.
During this period of time, Yu Li's parents have been paying attention to their daughter's movements.
Ever since they discovered that Yu Li and Cao Wei frequently went out together, the old couple's hearts seemed to be tugged by an invisible thread, sometimes feeling gratified and sometimes full of worries.
Finally, on a quiet night, when the moonlight poured in front of the window like water, Yu Li's mother could no longer suppress her inner entanglement.
She slowly stood up, walked to sit beside her husband, frowned slightly, and her originally gentle and kind eyes now revealed deep concern.
The slightly furrowed brows were like a heavy mountain, carrying a mother's endless worry and concern for her daughter's future.
Yu Li's mother lowered her voice and said softly, "Old man, look at our Li Li these days. She has been running out with that kid named Cao Wei. I am really worried. I don't know how far their relationship has developed..."
Yu Li's father slowly put down the slightly yellowed newspaper in his hand. The edge of the newspaper had been stained with traces of time because of being read and stored for a long time.
He gently pushed up the glasses on his nose, and through the slightly thick lenses, one could see his eyes flashing with thought.
"Yeah, he does go out quite frequently." Yu's father murmured in a low voice, his voice was not loud, but full of concern and doubt.
"I think this young man Cao Wei is handsome, with regular features and a good temperament. I just don't know what he thinks of our Lily?"
Yu Li's mother, who was sitting nearby, couldn't help but sigh softly when she heard this.
The sigh was like a breeze in the summer, gentle yet with a hint of sadness.
"Alas, a girl's youth is like a blooming flower, beautiful but short-lived, and can't stand the slightest delay." She said worriedly.
"Why don't we find an opportunity to ask Lily to go and test Cao Wei's attitude and see when he is willing to come to our house, so that we can settle the matter between them earlier. This way, we as parents can feel more at ease."
As Yu's mother spoke, she gently stroked her forehead with her hand, as if trying to calm the uneasiness in her heart.
After hearing this, Yu's father nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with his wife's idea.
His movements were steady and firm, as if every nod added an unshakable force to this decision.
"Okay, let's do it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Li walked out of the room.
Her steps were light, like a dancing butterfly.
As soon as Yu Li stepped into the house, she saw her parents sitting upright on the sofa with extremely serious expressions on their faces.
Her heart suddenly tightened, and she couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
"Mom and Dad, what's wrong with you? Did something happen?" Yu Li blinked and asked cautiously.
At this time, Yu Li's mother waved gently, motioning Yu Li to come and sit next to her.
After Yu Li sat down, her mother reached out and gently stroked her hair, and said in a gentle tone: "Lili, Mom heard that you often go out to play with that boy named Cao Wei recently. Can you tell me how you two get along?"
Hearing this, Yu Li's face instantly seemed to be roasted by fire, and a shy blush quickly appeared on her face.
The blush spread from the cheeks to the ears, just like the colorful sunset in the sky, so beautiful that it touches the heart.
She lowered her head slightly, not daring to look her mother in the eye. Her slender fingers unconsciously twisted the corners of her clothes, making her look a little uneasy.
After a long while, Yu Li stammered, "That's it. Anyway, it's good."
The sound was as soft as the buzzing of a mosquito or fly, but the girl's feelings contained in it flowed out slowly like a clear spring.
Mother Yu smiled and continued earnestly, "My child, you and Cao Wei have been together for a while! Look, time flies by so fast. So I was thinking, should I find a chance to ask Cao Wei when he can spare time to come to our house, so that our two families can work together to decide on your lifelong affairs. You know, you are not young anymore, and as your parents, we have to plan well for your future!"
After hearing her mother's words, Yu Li felt as if her heart was suddenly tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, and her heartbeat suddenly quickened several beats.
The rapid and powerful heartbeat seemed to be loudly telling of the tension and anxiety she was feeling deep in her heart at the moment.
Her eyes widened with astonishment, she never expected her parents to ask such a direct question.
For a moment, she was a little overwhelmed.
Yu Li subconsciously bit her lips lightly, and her originally pink and soft lips, under the light bite of her teeth, slightly turned an alluring blush.
She hesitated for a moment, as if she was organizing the right words in her mind, and then she whispered in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Dad, Mom, this...isn't this a bit too hasty? Although Cao Wei and I have known each other for quite some time, we still need to get to know each other better."
Father Yu, who was sitting nearby, had a very serious expression on his face. His bright eyes revealed an unquestionable firmness and deep love for his daughter.
He said with a stern face, "My daughter, how can you be considered anxious? Everything we do as parents is for your sake! If you really feel embarrassed and don't want to ask, then we can go and talk to Cao Wei in person!"
If you are dating nowadays, you usually just meet a few times and then you can settle the matter. Cao Wei and my family have been together for a long time, so it's time to settle it down.
Otherwise, when their daughter gets pregnant, it will be bad.
As Yu Li's parents, they have the obligation and responsibility to remind Yu Li.
Yu Li waved her hands quickly, her movements were flustered and anxious, as if she was trying to stop an impending storm.
"No, no, no, Mom and Dad, I...I can't go and ask."
Yu Li's mother smiled with relief, and that smile was like the spring sunshine, warm and bright.
She patted Yu Li's hand, as if giving her daughter courage and strength.
"That's right, Lily. Go ask Cao Wei and see what he thinks. If he has the same idea, then we can settle the matter quickly and we can rest assured."
Yu Li nodded with a red face, feeling both nervous and expectant.
She knew that her parents were doing this for her own good and wanted her to have a stable future.
In fact, she herself had deep feelings for Cao Wei and longed for further development with him.
Yu Li also felt that they had been dating for a long time.
That day, Yu Li asked Cao Wei out, and the two of them took a leisurely stroll in the park.
The sunshine shines on the body, warm and makes people feel particularly comfortable.
Yu Li stopped and lowered her head slightly. Her soft hair fell gently on her cheeks, adding a bit of shyness and tenderness.
She said shyly, "Cao Wei, we have been together for a while, I think...is it time to consider settling down?"
After saying that, Yu Li raised her head and looked at Cao Wei with anticipation in her eyes.
That expectant look is like the twinkling stars in the night sky, bright and moving.
Cao Wei was slightly stunned, and that moment of surprise was like ripples on a calm lake.
Then a warm feeling welled up in my heart, and that warm feeling was like a fire in winter, making people feel extremely comfortable.
Cao Wei thought seriously for a moment, and his mind flashed through every moment they had spent together. Those beautiful memories played before his eyes like a movie, filling his heart with emotion.
The time they spent together made his feelings for Li grow deeper, and he longed for a more stable future with her.
As for Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu, they had known about Yu Li's existence for a long time, but Yu Li didn't know about them.
Cao Wei just thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Cao Wei smiled and held Yu Li's hand, and the gentle movement seemed to be protecting a precious treasure.
He said gently, "Okay, that's what I meant. Then let's take some time to go to your house and meet your parents."
After hearing this, Yu Li's face blossomed into a bright smile, that smile was like a blooming flower, beautiful and moving.
Yu Li's heart was filled with joy, which flowed through her heart like a clear spring, making her feel extremely happy.
She held Cao Wei's hand tightly, as if she was holding on to future happiness.
..................
When Cao Wei returned home, he looked at Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu sitting in the living room, and felt a little nervous.
He knew that what he was about to tell them might cause some fluctuations in their hearts.
Cao Wei said nervously, "Xiao'e, Huairu, I have something to tell you. Yu Li's parents are urging me and Yu Li to settle the matter. They hope that I can go to Yu Li's house and meet her parents."
Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu looked at each other, their eyes full of understanding and helplessness.
In fact, they had already been mentally prepared.
After all, Cao Wei and Yu Li's relationship has been getting closer and closer during this period, so such a development is reasonable.
Lou Xiao'e sighed softly, and the sigh sounded like falling petals, carrying a hint of sadness.
Although she felt a little unhappy, Lou Xiao'e still tried to maintain a calm tone and said, "Since the parents have said so, it is only natural. Go ahead and perform well."
Qin Huairu also nodded, her movements gentle but firm.
"Yes, Cao Wei, this is a big deal, you have to take it seriously." Qin Huairu said slowly.
However, they all have their own complex emotions in their hearts.
When Lou Xiao'e thought about the past between her and Cao Wei, she couldn't help feeling a little lost and sad.
Those beautiful memories played in her mind like a movie, filling her heart with emotion.
She knew that this day would come sooner or later and Cao Wei would definitely marry a wife, but Lou Xiao'e still felt a little uncomfortable, and that faint sadness always lingered in her heart.
Looking at Cao Wei, there was a hint of helplessness and reluctance in his eyes.
Qin Huairu also felt a little melancholy about her situation.
She knew that what she had with Cao Wei was more of a special friendship than love like that of Yu Li.
Cao Wei saw their worry and felt a surge of guilt and pity in his heart.
He knew that his decision might make them feel a little uneasy.
Cao Wei took a step forward, looked at Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu seriously, and said softly: "Xiao'e, Huairu, don't worry. I know what you are thinking, but please believe me, I always have you in my heart. Even if Yu Li and I get married, I will not give up on you. You both have an irreplaceable place in my life."
There was a touch of emotion in Lou Xiao'e's eyes, and that light was as bright and moving as the stars in the night sky.
Lou Xiao'e pursed her lips slightly, and her soft lips trembled slightly, as if expressing her inner feelings.
"Xiao Wei, I am very touched by your words. We have been through so much together, and I know you are a man who values friendship and loyalty. As long as you have us in your heart, we will be content."
Qin Huairu also nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of emotion, and her eyes were full of trust and support.
"Cao Wei, we are really relieved that you can say that. We also hope that you can be happy. No matter what decision you make, we will support you."
Cao Wei held Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu's hands tightly, and that firm grip seemed to convey his determination and courage.
Cao Wei said sincerely: "I will explain all this to Yu Li. I believe if she really loves me, she will understand me. I don't want to hide anything from her, nor do I want to deceive her. I will tell her our story honestly and let her know how important you are to me. If she can't accept it, I will try to find a proper solution and will never let you get hurt."
Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu were even more moved after hearing Cao Wei's words.
They knew that Cao Wei was a responsible man, and since he said such words, he would definitely try his best to do it.
Lou Xiao'e gently patted Cao Wei's hand, and the gentle gesture seemed to give him encouragement and support.
Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "Cao Wei, we believe in you. Just do it with confidence, we will always be here waiting for you."
Cao Wei was very moved. Looking at the trusting eyes of Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu, he felt a strong sense of responsibility in his heart.
He secretly vowed that no matter how many difficulties he would encounter in the future, he must protect the two people who had always been by his side.
"Xiao'e, Huairu, thank you for your understanding and support. I will never let you down."
Cao Wei slept here at night.
Qin Huairu did not return to her newly built house, but stayed overnight at Lou Xiaoe's place.
After watching her two daughters fall asleep, she returned to her room.
The room was already filled with spring scenery at this time.
After this night, the awkwardness in Lou Xiao'e and Qin Huairu's hearts disappeared completely.
After all, Cao Wei was really a beast.
Neither of them could suppress Cao Wei alone.
I still need to find someone else to help.
