43.

After getting off the plane, Wen Er was still in a daze.

Bie Xu's "I love you" was extremely effective, instantly dispelling his uneasiness about seeing his parents, so he could only ponder those three words over and over again.

However, when he immediately recognized Lin Mei who was waving at them at the airport, the tension that had been suppressed with great difficulty suddenly surfaced again.

Lin Mei is almost fifty years old, she still looks very young and very beautiful.It's not the kind of unnatural youth with skin-lifting and chin shaving, nor is it the Internet celebrity beauty with big eyes and small pointed face.She feels very comfortable, has temperament and charm, and can also tell a certain age, but it is unexpected that she will be the mother of three children, and the eldest child has been an adult for a long time.

Bie Xu and his mother are [-]% like, especially the eyes and lips.Their smiling eyes when looking at people, and the curved corners of their mouths are all exactly the same.

Lin Mei's second husband was from country C, he was tall and tall. With Lin Mei in his arms, he looked like a little bird.

"Erer, right? He's much more handsome than the photo." Wen Er still stiffly didn't know whether to shake hands or bow, but Lin Mei had already taken his hand affectionately and naturally, and introduced to him, "This is my husband, Jack. .”

"Hello." Jack shook hands with Wen Er, smiling enthusiastically.

"I still have two children. I didn't come to the airport, and I can see them when I get home."

Lin Mei hasn't even looked at her son since picking up the plane, she just caught Wen Er and asked, "Do you mind going home for a meal?"

"Of course I don't mind." Wen Er responded quickly.Lin Mei's natural "go home" easily relieved his tension, as if they had already become a family.

"Hey - good." Lin Mei had just chatted with Wen Er, and saw that his eyes were full of joy.As she spoke, she pulled Wen Er forward, Jack held the box for him, and walked behind side by side with Bie Xu.

Bie Xu didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, and left Wen Er to face Lin Mei alone very shamelessly.He believed in his mother's skills, whether she was a mother, a hostess, or a mother-in-law, she was impeccably competent in her role.

Wen Er also felt that Lin Mei's style was very different from Bie Kuan'an's.

Rather than making people entangled, Bie Kuan'an should be classified as "strict father" or "benevolent father", it is better to say that he does not belong to this definition.He accepted his son's partner very openly and respected it very much, but it may also be because of too much respect that it made both of them a little reserved.

According to Bie Xu's description, Bie Kuan'an seldom used his father's status to make demands on him. He was more like a subsidiary of his father. The headquarters only inquired about important matters, and he was allowed to operate freely at other times.

But when Lin Mei talked with Wen Er, it seemed that Wen Er was her own son she hadn't seen for many years.

Lin Mei seldom asked questions, and most of the time she just told Wen Er some trivial things, such as Jack, who has learned for many years, can only cook one Chinese dish, for example, she always wanted to give birth to a girl, but failed, for example, yesterday Her two youngest sons had a fight over the question of "Who is more handsome, Brother Bie Xu or Brother Wen Er", and today they went to play football hand in hand, and bet that they will judge when they come back tonight and see a real person...

She seemed to be very familiar with Wen Er, and she was not in a hurry to understand what she was curious about or cared about. Instead, she talked about her family's short stories first, so that he would not feel helpless and unfamiliar when he blended in.

Looking at Lin Mei, Wen Er felt the feeling of "mother" for a long time.

Seeing that Wen Er was in a bad mood, Lin Mei slowed down her speech, then patted him on the shoulder knowingly: "Good boy..."

She was silent for a while, letting Wen Er relax, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Have you met Bie Xu's father?"

"I've seen it before we came to country c."

Lin Mei nodded.At this moment, she finally realized the existence of her own son, passed Wen Er who was sitting in the middle, and gave Bie Xu a hard look.

She seemed unconvinced, curled her lips, took Wen Er's hand, patted it affectionately, and asked in a casual but caring way: "Is his father not bad?"

"Uncle is quite nice." Wen Er finally knew where Bie Xu's unexpected cuteness and narrow-mindedness came from. It was a bit funny, but he answered very politely.

Unexpectedly, Lin Mei was immediately cheered up, squinted at Wen Er, and sighed triumphantly: "You still call him uncle..."

Her meaning was self-evident. Seeing Wen Er lowered his head in embarrassment, he quickly patted the back of his hand again: "It's okay, it's okay, you can call it whatever you want, don't worry."

As soon as Bie Xu saw an opportunity to tear down his mother, he stopped pretending to be dumb, and extinguished Lin Mei's secret calculations and the sense of superiority that was about to arise spontaneously with one sentence: "Mom, your phrase 'no hurry' can make people call it embarrassing." Already, Er Er has called everything that should be called that day."

"Called?" Lin Mei seemed to have suffered a major blow, and looked at Wen Er with suspicion and urgency.After a long time, she snorted: "He's so relieved, he only needs to sleep with Hua and pick up two sons for nothing!"

Because of this little episode, Lin Mei's enthusiasm for speaking was reduced a lot, but she started introducing Wen Er again when she was almost home.

Except for the area in the city center of country c, other areas can be regarded as the suburbs. There are few high-rise buildings, and they are basically rows of double-storey villas. There is a small lawn in front of the house that needs to be taken care of by yourself.

Jack sent the three of them there first, and then drove to pick up the tomatoes and potatoes after kicking the ball.

Wen Er was very amused to hear their names, and Lin Mei explained to him: "Jack and I met in China, and we immigrated to country C after we got married. I used to have a strange thing when I was learning English. No matter how difficult a word is I can remember it, but I can’t tell the difference between potato and tomato. Later, I gave birth to a tomato, so I named him this name, so I shouted it at home, but I didn’t expect him to like it.”

Wen Er was dumbfounded when he heard that, he thought he and Wen Ya's names would be lazy enough, but he didn't expect these two children to be more casual.

Bie Xu devoted himself to dismantling his mother, and added: "As a result, two years later, another potato was born, and now the two names are mixed, and it is still unclear."

The three of them were laughing, Jack picked up the child and pushed open the door, and two little curly hair came running over.

Seeing a strange elder brother at home, they were not timid at all, howled and wanted to pounce on Wen Er, but Bie Xu pulled him away.

The two children were also very happy to see Bie Xu, but the children's minds were very fond of the new and dislike the old. At least at this moment, Bie Xu was not as attractive as Wen Er in their eyes.

So Tomato and Potato yelled "Brother Bie Xu" perfunctorily, and the two pairs of big eyes still looked at Wen Er flickeringly.

"Hello! My name is Wen Er." Wen Er spoke to the children, his voice slow and soft, and he waved at them with his palm outstretched.

"Hello!" Tomato, as an elder brother, was very bossy, smoothed Wen Er's palm, and shook him solemnly.

He couldn't pronounce the name "Wener" very well, so he called out vaguely, which sounded like "Wow".He patted his chest and introduced himself: "Brother Wow, my name is Tomato, scientific name Tomato, and I am eight years old this year." He then pointed to his younger brother behind him: "His name is Tudou, scientific name is Potato, and he is six years old this year."

Bie Xu didn't expect that he had other names when he teased Tomato before, but this kid actually used them today, and distinguished between the scientific name and the nickname, which is cute and funny.

Wen Er didn't smile, but nodded seriously: "You are amazing, and there are so many names, I remember them."

The two children came forward to shake hands with him in turn, and performed the meeting ceremony meticulously, looking very satisfied with Wen Er.

Lin Mei watched the excitement for a long time, and asked with a smile, "Did your bet come to fruition yesterday? Who is more handsome, Brother Bie Xu or Brother Wen Er?"

"Brother Wow!" Tomato didn't hesitate, and immediately abandoned the best, best, best, best brother who bought him a limited edition Transformers.

Tudou is shy and more conscientious than Tomato. The key is that he thought Brother Bie Xu was the most handsome last night. If he changes his answer today, it means he lost the bet.

The little guy struggled for a long time, but he was really an honest kid with no ghosts and cleverness. He also pointed at Wen Er with a small voice, and used a transition sentence kindly: "Brother Bie Xu is handsome, but Brother Wow is super handsome."

Of course, Bie Xu wouldn't argue with the two children. Hearing that they liked Wen Er more, he felt much happier than being praised.

Wen Er didn't expect to win the favor of the two children so easily, and smiled at them and said, "Thank you."

The happiest thing is Tomato. He immediately quietly pulled Potato aside, and whispered in his younger brother's ear, "You lose, and next week I will have all the game consoles."

Tudou is not reconciled to the victory he gave up by himself, but this child has somehow developed the character of a little gentleman. Whenever he is bullied by the little bully brother, he will quietly admit defeat without crying or making trouble.

Bie Xu is more partial to potatoes, and doesn't want to let children who can't cry have no milk, but they won't break the rules recognized among children.

So he teased Tomato: "Why do you think brother Wen Er is handsome? I'm so sad that I won't buy you gifts in the future."

Tomato was not flustered, and waved his hands at Bie Xu repeatedly, with a hint of sincerity: "Liars are not good! You will definitely buy me a gift next time. Don't lie and say you don't want to buy it, then Brother Bie Xu is not a good person." gone."

Bie Xu continued to threaten him: "I think Brother Wen Er is not as handsome as me, and I don't agree with the result of your bet. I declare Tudou as the winner!"

Tomato doesn't understand what "approval" means, but he is very unconvinced when he hears that Bie Xu said that Tudou won.

He snapped his fingers and gave Bie Xu an analysis: "Mom likes Dad, she said Dad is the most handsome. Mom said Bie Xu's brother likes Wow, so Wow should be the most handsome!"

Little Tomato looked at the four adults indignantly, including Jack who joined later, as if blaming them for not being able to solve logic problems.

It is said that there is no limit to children's words, Lin Mei and Jack looked at each other, and "this kid will be a talent when he grows up" was written all over his eyes.Wen Er didn't expect the kid to know so much. He was said to be mature, but there was something childish in his words, which was just naive in the end.

Bie Xu was defeated by Tomato, but at the moment he was the most proud.

He also pulled Potato over, rubbed the curly hair of the two little guys, and smiled mischievously: "Your analysis is correct, but Mom forgot to tell you that Brother Wen Er also likes Brother Bie Xu."

He earnestly said: "So——"

Tudou listened to the cause and effect silently at the side, and now excitedly answered: "So brother Bie Xu is also the most handsome!"

"Yes!" Bie Xu snapped his fingers and sat next to Wen Er, "So neither of you lost! Because I like Brother Wen Er, and Brother Wen Er also likes me. Do you understand?"

"Understood—" the two little guys answered neatly.

Tudou is happy that he can continue to play game consoles, and Tomato is happy that he has learned a new logic problem. His two big eyes look at Bie Xu with their own admiration, and at the same time they look at the most handsome boy held by their powerful brother Bie Xu. Brother Wen Er.

Wen Er really didn't expect to meet the parents on this trip to pass the children's level first. He lowered his face in embarrassment, and Tomato yelled loudly for him to look up, saying plausibly, "Mom said that good-looking people can't bow their heads."

Bie Xu clenched Wen Er's hand tightly in an instant, and it was so hard to endure that he couldn't laugh until his whole body trembled.He knew that Lin Mei's skill was beyond comparison to ordinary people.
