Chapter 171 I’m not losing money anyway (please subscribe)

After getting along for a while, Lin Lu, his future father-in-law, and his future mother-in-law managed to talk happily. Compared with the politeness and restraint when they first met, it was obvious that they were much more natural when getting along now.

For Lin Lu and Li Min Chen Yingping, their relationship is naturally not a simple model of 'guests come and host entertains'. Because of Li Xingruo, they might become a family in the future. Fortunately, after getting in touch, both parties

We are very satisfied with each other, and we are getting more and more comfortable talking with each other.

The duck and goose have been braised, and the mother and daughter are busy in the kitchen. Lin Lu is drinking tea and chatting with Uncle Li in the living room. Uncle Li is not so reserved now, and puts his feet up on the sofa as usual.

He held a few drawings in his hand, which were plans for redecorating his home next year. Knowing that Lin Lu was engaged in design, he took them over to discuss with him.

There are many types of design, such as interior design, graphic design, advertising design, etc. Of course Uncle Li didn't understand these. He heard that Lin Lu was engaged in design, so he thought he should also understand interior design, just like his family members would think.

Anyone who learns programming is like repairing computers.

But Uncle Li was right about this. Although Lin Lu did not specialize in interior design, he had done some research. After all, the core of his talent was in aesthetics, the aesthetics of space, the aesthetics of decoration, and

Uncle Li was very clear-cut when talking about decoration.

In order to facilitate communication, Lin Lu stopped sitting across from the coffee table and simply sat next to his father-in-law. He took a pencil and simply wrote and drew on the drawings, chatting with Uncle Li about some of his ideas and suggestions.

He is very keen on the use of space and the creation of aesthetics. Every time he mentions something, he can hit the father-in-law's heart accurately. When Uncle Li took out the drawings at first, he just looked for something to talk about casually.

It was just a chat, but I didn’t expect that the more I listened, the more seriously I became, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that these suggestions made by Lin Lu were really good.

"Uncle Li, you see, when I enter the house, the first thing I think of is the space, not the color. It doesn't matter if the color is lighter, because the anger comes from the people in the house. The most important feeling of a home is leisurely and unrestrained. I will simply draw a

Take a look at the picture..."

"Xiao Lin has a good idea..."

The current decoration at home was more than ten or twenty years ago. Now that Li Xingruo has graduated and she has an income to support herself, Uncle Li saved some money and thought about renovating this self-built building.

These drawings were also designed by a friend from an outside decoration company. Compared with this kind of template decoration design, Lin Lu's design gave Uncle Li a refreshing feeling.

Lin Lu took a pencil to write and draw, making his suggestions and modifications on the original drawings. With his solid art skills, he quickly put his ideas on paper. It looked simple and plain, but did not feel cold.

The home design is also based on practicality, using simple lines and strong color contrast to fully present the beauty of the space, bringing a leisurely, clean, pleasant, elegant, spacious, soft and leisurely feeling.

This is probably the most intuitive reflection of Lin Lu's ability. Usually, his daughter often praises him for being good at painting and designing, but Uncle Li was confused. He didn't face the man in front of him until he saw it with his own eyes.

The young man, who was younger than his own daughter, looked at her with admiration.

Uncle Li also owns a hardware store and is very keen on the cost of decoration materials. He made some calculations and found that if he followed Lin Lu's idea, the cost could even be reduced by another 10% or 20%, but the decoration effect would be improved.

A lot.

"oops……"

Uncle Li slapped his thigh, looking a little annoyed.

"What's wrong, Uncle Li?"

Lin Lu was stunned, thinking that Uncle Li was dissatisfied with this design.

"Damn it, if I had known you were capable of this, Xiaolin, I would have asked you to help me with the design drawings. These drawings cost me a lot of money. Fortunately, I arrived in time. I will follow your suggestion next year.

Go and get it, there may be many things I need to ask you about by then."

"What did Uncle Li say? This is a family opinion. I'm honored that Uncle Li can appreciate him. Don't worry, Uncle Li. If you have any questions, you can ask me anytime. How about we add WeChat and select talents later?"

, I can also help Uncle Li take a closer look."

"Okay! Xiao Lin is really good. No wonder you are still studying. You can earn so much part-time in normal times. You are really capable."

The relationship between men is based on working together. With the topic of decoration, Lin Lu and Uncle Li talked a lot, and successfully added his father-in-law's WeChat account. Uncle Li also took him to visit the second and third floors, including

In every room and corner of the house, the two men were chatting animatedly.

Unknowingly, it was approaching one o'clock. Lin Lu and Uncle Li were looking at the dimensions of the house on the third floor. Li Xingruo's voice came from the corridor: "It's time to eat! Where are you going?!"

"Xiao Lin, let's eat first and talk to you about this. I'm suddenly enlightened. I'm a rough guy. Let me think about these details by myself. It's really a headache. Let others do it, and I won't feel the same.

Not to my liking, but you have a good taste."

"Uncle Li won the prize. I usually like to tinker. I also thought that when I get married, I will also design and decorate the house myself, so I learned more."

"Okay, okay, think long term, that's a good thing!"

The two men went downstairs together. If it weren't for their different identities and if they were about the same age, they would probably be hooking up.

Although he is young, he is talented and capable, has plans for the future, and is modest and restrained. This young man is really becoming more and more pleasing to the eyes of the people.

After going downstairs, Li Min took the drawings that Lin Lu had modified for him back into the room. Li Xingruo, who was standing next to him, approached Lin Lu with a strange expression and asked in a low voice: "What have you been talking about with my dad? You can talk like this? Did you do it before?"

Wouldn't it be impossible for the two of you to talk nonsense when you sit together..."

"No, I just chatted with Uncle Li about decoration and stuff."

"He talked to you about this?"

"That's right. Uncle Li, haven't you talked to me before? He said he would find time to renovate his home after the Chinese New Year."

"I know, he is very stubborn. He doesn't think my mother's or mine's opinions are good enough. How can he listen to your opinions?"

"I'm a professional!"

Lin Lu straightened his back proudly.

"...Stop being so beautiful! Go wash your hands and help my mother serve the food!"

Li Xingruo pinched him secretly. No matter what the two men talked about, seeing how they talked so congenially made her feel relaxed and relieved. After all, whoever doesn't want to bring home a man can also get his father.

Mom likes it.

This is different from making friends. If you want to integrate into a family, you can't do it with just a slap. There is a lot of knowledge in it.

After successfully surviving the tense and awkward period when they first met, Lin Lu's charm gradually emerged, blowing the horn of attack, and frequently began to score goals in the hearts of the future father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Li Xingruo wiped the table and the glass turntable with a rag, Li Min opened a bottle of wine and a bottle of orange juice, Chen Yingping chopped the braised duck and goose into neatly arranged plates in the kitchen, and Lin Lu was busy helping to serve the dishes.

"It's so rich, auntie! It's all my favorite food!"

"Well, I asked Xiaoruo yesterday. She said you like braised pig's trotters, so Auntie will make you a pot to try. Today's braised duck is also very good. Auntie will cut a duck leg for you two."

"Okay, I haven't eaten duck legs in many years. I usually give them to my sister, but I didn't expect that my aunt would still have duck legs to eat today!"

"It doesn't matter. Xiao Lin comes here often when he has time. Auntie always leaves duck legs for you."

"Auntie's craftsmanship is really good, no wonder Xingruo's cooking is so delicious, it smells so good!"

"Then Xiaolin, you have to eat more later. You won't have dinner that early tonight. If you don't eat enough, you will go hungry."

"Of course! Auntie, leave the chopping board and pot for now. I'll wash them later. Let's eat first."

"It's okay, it's okay. Xiaolin, you guys eat first. You're welcome to treat it as your own family."

The lunch was very sumptuous, including braised duck, braised goose, boiled chicken, and Liangxi specialty Taihu boat dishes using white fish, white shrimp, crab, and fat turtle as cooking ingredients, as well as shrimp crispy rice, braised pork trotters, and crispy whitebait.

, add another fried green vegetable.

Four people would definitely be unable to finish these eight dishes and one soup, but the visual impact was still quite large, and Lin Lu could also feel the deep affection of Li Xingruo's family.

He usually never takes pictures when eating out, so he couldn't help but take out his phone to take a photo and record the sumptuous meal at home. After all, this was the first time he had eaten at Sister Liang Xi Xingruo's house.

, it’s very memorable.

For Chen Yingping, who cooks, Lin Lu likes these dishes and even took out his mobile phone to take pictures, which is a great recognition.

The seats are also where Li Xingruo's family usually sits. Uncle Li sits in the main seat, and Lin Lu sits next to Li Xingruo. Although the two of them will be secretly intimate where the elders cannot see them, they are still very close at the dinner table.

They were reserved and did not show affection when sharing food with each other. However, Uncle Li and Aunt Chen would occasionally use shared spoons to pick up food for Lin Lu. At this time, Lin Lu would quickly hold the bowl in both hands and take the food.

Lin Lu was glad that he came early today. If he had come here late for lunch and had to sit at the dining table together just after they met, he would not have had a full meal at all.

After getting along with each other for a long time, we got to know each other a lot, and we ate the meal peacefully and naturally. Everyone talked and laughed around the dinner table, chatting about trivial matters such as their daily work and life, and it was no longer a problem.

No one brings up topics like urging marriage or finding a partner.

Lin Lu is not stupid. If the elders don't mention it, then he will not talk about these things stupidly. After all, it is the first time they meet, so as not to push the atmosphere to the stage of talking about marriage, which will suddenly become embarrassing.

, since it is the understanding stage, then understand more and get along more. When it is time to mention, the elders will naturally say it.

"Xiao Lin, if you have to drive, my uncle won't pour you any wine, so you can use this orange juice instead of wine and drink two glasses with me."

"You want what you want!"

Lin Lu quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks, raised the orange juice in his hand, and toasted Uncle Li.

Although Uncle Li and Aunt Chen are not well-educated, they are very comfortable in their ways. They know that Lin Lu does not drink, and they will not use wine to make things difficult for him. There is a lot of care in their words. This is probably because of such a tolerant and harmonious family environment.

, will give birth to Sister Xingruo’s gentle and kind character.

Gentle and kind, simple and spiritual, not vain or complaining, these sound like very simple things. In fact, every adjective is rarer than adjectives such as beautiful, highly educated, and rich. After all, this is the soil of the original family.

The seeds that came out, and these are the unique shining points of Li Xingruo, including her family, that shine in Lin Lu's eyes.

After this sumptuous and home-cooked lunch, the relationship between them became much closer.

After the meal, Lin Lu took the initiative to help clean the table and put away the dishes. Before he could wash the dishes, Aunt Chen quickly smiled and said no. Lin Lu couldn't be polite to her, so he had to go over to the coffee table to accompany Uncle Li.
