return of the king

The little tricks they did in private were discovered by Dafu.

Cao Dasheng and Cao Dagui, two stupid men, didn't know how to change the subject at this time, they just stood aside blankly, and this Xiaohui seemed to be trying to cover up when talking to Lao Wang.

After Li Xiumei winked at Cao Dagui for more than ten minutes, Cao Dagui finally realized.

"By the way, you spent a lot of time on the road, and you haven't eaten dinner yet."

"I didn't eat." Zhou Lixi said insincerely.

In fact, they had already eaten, but they ate lunch and dinner together, but seeing how Dagui was already waiting in cold sweat, in order to protect Li Xiumei, he had no choice but to continue.

After all, Dafu and Li Xiumei are the only ones in this family who can talk. Cao Dagui and Cao Dafu can neither read people's faces nor deal with things calmly, and they love Dafu and Li Xiumei, so this family is actually decided by Dafu and Li Xiumei.

Li Xiumei is the one who can ignore Dafu's words and lead the rest of the Cao family to his side, so he can't let her be wronged. If Dafu loses his temper and gets angry with Li Xiumei, she may not be willing to continue to help him.

Li Xiumei nodded appreciatively to Zhou Lixi, then turned to Xiaohui and said, "Xiaohui, go and serve the dinner quickly. Let's go in and eat, don't stand here anymore."

With that said, Li Xiumei waved her hand to signal them all to go in.

The first person to go inside was naturally Cao Dasheng. Although the Cao family did not have a concept of hierarchy, they still knew how to let him go first with the traditional thinking of respecting the old and caring for the young and the elders.

After Cao Dasheng took his seat, the others also sat down, and the rest of the people had no seniority, and Dafu took his seat earlier than Cao Dagui, so no one cared.

Although he knew they didn't care, Zhou Lixi waited until they all sat down before pulling out the chair.

Xiaohui and Lao Wang put the food on the table, and when everything was delivered to the table, they carried Zhiri and Xinyu from Dafu and Zhou Lixi to the lobby to watch TV.

When Dafu lived at Li Minghui's place, except for the two of them, no one else mattered, and Zhiri could still choose someone, but now there are many people, and they all take turns hugging him, so Zhiri can already accept people other than Dafu holding him, But it is also limited to the seven people who are here now, including Daifuku.

Seeing the sumptuous dinner and several bowls and chopsticks on the table, Dafu asked in surprise, "Have you not had dinner yet?"

He originally thought that Li Xiumei and the others just meant to sit down, but none of the dishes seemed to have been touched, as if they were deliberately waiting for them to come back before serving the meal.

"I'm not very hungry, so I'll wait for you to come back to eat."

Cao Dagui laughed.

Rather than saying that I am not very hungry, it is better to say that I have no appetite.

Cao Dagui loves to eat, but he can only eat more if he likes to eat. He is used to the delicacies cooked by Zhou Lixi, but he can't eat ordinary dishes. No matter how good his appetite is, he can't eat them.

Dafu looked at Li Xiumei's three faces for a while, and finally saw the reason why they didn't want to eat.

After seeing their expressions, Dafu visited them for a while, then turned to Zhou Lixi and said, "It's amazing, you can make our family lose weight collectively, and only you can do it."

All three of his relatives lost weight, and Dafu didn't know whether he should be happy or worried.

How could Zhou Lixi not see what Dafu could discover.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. In fact, I didn't say that you can't cook. It's okay to cook some porridge."

If there is Xiaohui preparing the ingredients here, he only needs to control the heat, time and seasoning, which is easier than when he made it in the afternoon.

"Really?!" Li Xiumei said in surprise.

"Cough cough!"

Daifuku coughed to warn them.

Li Xiumei suppressed the smile on her face, and even Cao Dagui, who wanted to say something, didn't say anything.

"You are a patient, you should take good care of your wounds!"

Dafu felt sorry for the three of Li Xiumei, but felt that it was not good for Zhou Lixi, a patient, to cook while sick, so he could only say such words that seemed to favor Zhou Lixi.

Furthermore, Cao Dasheng and Cao Dafu are seriously overweight like Dafu used to be. Even Li Xiumei has been fattened up by Zhou Lixi in the past two years. Dafu intends to let them lose weight.

It's not that he dislikes his family's obesity, but that people are fat. In old age, high blood pressure, high blood sugar... These diseases are about to plague the body, and she wants them to take the opportunity to lose weight for their own good.

"Dafu, this is not acceptable. Before you marry Li Xi, you will only feel sorry for Li Xi."

Li Xiumei laughed and teased, but she was already a little dissatisfied in her heart.

She was really glad that her son knew how to feel sorry for Zhou Lixi, but he regarded Zhou Lixi more important than them, this is not a good sign!

Noticing the sadness in Li Xiumei's eyes, Dafu explained: "It's not that I don't want to let Lixi cook, nor that I don't want you to eat. I just hope that you can properly control the amount of food you eat, and that you can lose weight successfully. People are fat , high blood pressure, high blood sugar... many 'high' diseases will be entangled, and grandpa is a good example. It is also for the sake of your body to eat less and lose weight."

Dafu didn't intend to say these words too plainly, but his mother misunderstood him, so he had to say it.

It is best to be able to understand the things you care about. If you speak out, that kindness will be greatly reduced.

Li Xiumei looked at her slightly retracted stomach, and said with a smile: "We understand what you mean, I will take your father and your grandfather out for a walk every day in the future."

It's all because she ignores the problem of geriatric diseases. She watches TV at home all day and asks them to accompany her to watch theater plays. For this reason, everyone seldom goes out.

"Although I have been back for a few days, I can see your habits. Mom, you used to go out for a walk, but now you seldom go out, do you? Dad, now you like to lie on the sofa and touch your stomach after eating Really? Grandpa, how long has it been since you practiced Tai Chi?"

Daifuku pointed out their changes one by one.

When they said this, they all bowed their heads in embarrassment.

Zhou Lixi sighed secretly, no one dared to refute when Dafu taught him a lesson, who else could he rely on to help him when Dafu taught him in the future?

"Well, if you don't eat anymore, the dishes will be cold, and it will be a waste of Xiaohui and Lao Wang's effort to heat up the dishes just now."

Zhou Lixi bit the bullet and changed the subject.

It would be a big deal for Dafu to stare at him for doing this, but if he did this, if he was scolded by Dafu in the future, maybe Li Xiumei would be able to say a few good words for him.

Dafu did give Zhou Lixi a blank look, but he didn't continue to accuse Li Xiumei and the others.

"Grandpa, Dad, Mom, eat."

Dafu's words let them know that this little disturbance is finally over.

Li Xiumei secretly gave Zhou Lixi an appreciative look, as if praising Zhou Lixi for doing a good job.

She has always known Zhou Lixi's understanding of the world.With him, she is not afraid that Dafu will suffer outside!

Hearing that she was missing from Dafu's address, Zhou Lixi called sullenly: "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, Dafu, let's eat."

Hearing him mentioning himself, Dafu was startled, and then remembered that he had ignored him just now, no wonder his voice was weird, so he said, "You should also eat more."

It was only next week that Zhou Lixi picked up the bowl and chopsticks with a smile.

Li Xiumei and the three looked at each other and smiled, happy for the reconciliation between the two of them.

However, when they picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat, they looked sad again and picked up the dishes without interest.

The Cao family is not as strict as the Zhou family, so they chatted at the dinner table.

"Dafu, you are serious. You didn't say anything when you were injured. You hid at Zhou Lixi's place to recuperate. I told you that it must be weird for you to do so! How is your injury now? Lixi is also wrong, and actually helped Dafu hide it!"

Li Xiumei is angry and blames them for keeping Dafuk's injury from her.

On the way back, Zhou Lixi had already called to clarify the two things before and after, so the Cao family not only knew that Zhou Lixi was coming to recuperate, but also knew that Dafu had just recovered.

Although Dafu was injured because of Zhou Lixi, knowing that Dafu was only injured a little but saved Zhou Lixi's life, the people of the Cao family felt sorry for Dafu, but they also felt that Dafu did the right thing.

A small injury for a life, not to mention that this happened among people they know well, even if it is external, this is a great thing to accumulate merit.

Although the members of Cao's family are not very superstitious, they also firmly believe in the saying that "good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil", so they always treat others with kindness.

"It's much better, as you can see, I can walk normally. It's just a small injury, but you also know that you like to worry about yourself, so I let him hide it from you with me."

Although he understood that Li Xiumei would not really blame Zhou Lixi, but this matter was his fault, so Dafu deliberately took most of the responsibility on himself in his words.

Zhou Lixi was very excited after hearing this.

Back today, Dafu has defended him many times!

Of course, rather than being excited, it would be more appropriate to use eagerness to move.

"Pfft~"

Seeing Zhou Lixi staring at Dafu with fiery eyes, Li Xiumei couldn't help laughing.

It is true that Dafu forgave Zhou Lixi, but he should not let him climb the bed for the time being, after all Zhou Lixi still has a foot injury!

"Mom?" Dafu asked strangely. He turned his head and noticed that Zhou Lixi beside him was looking at him with such shameless eyes in front of his parents, so he stretched out his foot and kicked under the table.

"Hiss!" Zhou Lixi let out a cry of grief before withdrawing her gaze from looking at Dafu.
