Chapter 181 The Song Family is in the Pastry Business
This is also the reason why Song Li felt a little ashamed when he found that Li Zhengde became extremely friendly to him because of a reason he made up on the spur of the moment.
Li Zhengde suddenly became so enthusiastic and friendly to him because he felt that Song Li was a filial son who was willing to speak up for his mother and classmates. However, the reason why Song Li spoke up was entirely because his family was in the pastry business, and Song Li found the osmanthus thousand-layer cake delicious, so he wanted to take it back for his mother to try.
"I didn't buy this thing anywhere. Li Zhengde brought it to me from home. He said his sister made it herself." Song Li said.
Mrs. Song widened her eyes slightly and looked down at the thing in her hand in disbelief.
"This osmanthus thousand-layer cake and the gardenia sugar crisp you mentioned, were both made by Li Zhengde's sister? Could it be that he was just saying that to please you out of vanity? Why is his sister involved in everything? Isn't his sister just a country girl?" Mrs. Song murmured.
Song Li fully understood Mrs. Song's feelings at the moment, because Song Li had the same question many times.
Isn't she just an ordinary woman who can cook and earn some money? How could there be so many things that surprised them, things they had never seen or heard of before?
"That lip balm already surprised me enough, and now there are these cakes. What exactly does Li Mingxia do? Who is she? Did Li Zhengde deceive you? She is not a country girl at all! Do they have any purpose?" Mrs. Song suddenly spoke, her eyes fell on the two cakes in front of her, wavering.
Song Li was almost amused by his mother's speculation, "Mom, let's not talk about the fact that Li Zhengde has already agreed to let me visit his home. From the beginning to the end, I was the one who took the initiative in the communication between him and me. If it wasn't for..."
Song Li thought about what happened today again. If he hadn't said those words today that caused Li Zhengde to misunderstand, he would probably be indifferent to him now, maintaining an ordinary friendship with him that was slightly better than classmates. But for some reason, Song Li didn't want to mention it or say it.
"In short, mother, I can confirm that both Li Zhengde and Li Mingxia are an ordinary family. If you don't believe me, just check it out yourself."
Mrs. Song thought for a moment and said, "How do I explain these things? I have never seen them before."
"Perhaps Li Zhengde's sister figured it out herself."
Mrs. Song was silent for a while and then let out a long breath.
"Three days later, go to Li Zhengde's house. When you get there, send someone to let me know the exact location of his house. I'll pick you up at their house in the evening."
Song Li knew what Mrs. Song's purpose was, but he still felt something was wrong. "Mom, although this matter is very important, there is no need to trouble you so much. That place is in the countryside, how can you go there?"
My mother knows it best. Although she has come to this town now, her food, clothing and other expenses are still not bad. In the past, she lived a life of luxury and had never suffered any hardship. How could such a person be willing to go to a place like the countryside?
Besides, Song Li had another worry in his heart. If his mother went to the countryside this time and got what she wanted, it would be fine. But what if she returned empty-handed or did not get what she expected?
"I have to go on this trip no matter what. Li'er, don't forget to prepare some gifts when you go. It's your first time visiting a classmate's home, so you must not be impolite. Do you understand?" Mrs. Song instructed Song Li in detail. Her indifferent attitude towards this matter at the beginning became extremely concerned.
Song Li agreed to everything and began to think about what he should bring when he went to Li Mingxia's house.
On the second day, Li Zhengxue, who had tossed and turned all night and had not slept well, decided to give Li Mingxia a chance.
As for what opportunities...
"Li Zhengde, you will have a day off in three days. Now you have come to Baima Academy to study. Don't you have anything you want to say to me or to our master?" Li Zhengxue took advantage of the fact that there were few people in the morning and Xue Li and Song Li were not there yet to start a fight with Li Zhengde.
Li Zhengde raised his head and looked at Li Zhengxue strangely.
The confusion in his eyes was not fake. He really didn't know what Li Zhengxue was making a fuss about. Aren't these things obvious? Why did he ask? Didn't his previous attitude explain the problem?
"My affairs are naturally taken care of by my parents, brothers and sisters. When they ask me about my plans, I will only tell my parents, brothers and sisters about what I want to say or do. You don't need to worry about them." Li Zhengde repeated his answer patiently.
Li Zhengxue narrowed his eyes, but did not give up, and continued: "Grandpa said that during the rest time, we should invite all the elders in the family to the old house for dinner and talk together. This is also the meaning of relatives. Don't you know how to do this?"
Li Zhengde nodded, indicating that he understood. "I will tell my parents, sisters and brothers when I go back. Thank you for telling me this, cousin Zhengxue, but I have to review my lessons now, so I can't chat with you."
Although Li Zhengxue was satisfied that Li Zhengde agreed to this matter, he was still unhappy with his careless attitude.
He is the eldest grandson of the Li family, so he can only say that there is nothing wrong. When will it be Li Zhengde's turn to drive him away? How disrespectful and rude!
"Li Zhengde, what do you mean? I haven't even finished my words and you're in a hurry for me to leave!? Stand up right there!" Perhaps because Li Zhengxue was too eager to vent his recent unhappiness, the sound he had been suppressing could not be suppressed, attracting many people to look over here.
"Just say whatever you want to say. I can hear you whether I'm standing or sitting." Li Zhengde is no longer the poor little boy he used to be. Naturally, he would not do anything just because of a few words from Li Zhengxue. He still sat steadily in his seat. When he looked up at Li Zhengxue, he was calm and expressionless, without any trace of fear and cowardice from before.
Li Zhengxue also discovered this matter, and it was this discovery that made him angry and embarrassed, and the rage in his heart instantly burned.
As for why, only he himself knows best.
Li Zhengxue raised his fist almost the next moment and wanted to hit him. Li Zhengde didn't expect that Li Zhengxue would actually attack him directly in the school, and he didn't react for a while.
