Chapter 200: Chapter 200: Mom Doesn’t Love Me Anymore.

At this moment, Shen Mianmian was not present, otherwise she would have noticed that the direction Li Yue was driving in was exactly where Xiu Min lived.

The car pulled into the yard, and he and He Nan got out of the car one after the other, with Xiu Min and Li Shiping coming out to greet them with smiles.

"Aunt Xiu."

He Nan’s demeanor was indifferent, but he still politely greeted Xiu Min.

"He Nan, come on in. The food’s all ready; we’ve just been waiting for you to come back to eat."

Xiu Min had always liked He Nan. He wasn’t much of a talker, but like her son, he had come out of the military. The two had a good relationship and looked after each other in the service. After they were discharged, they continued to go into business with her son.

Far superior to those friends of her son who only knew how to boast in social gatherings.

It was a pity her daughter had married early; otherwise, He Nan would have been the top choice for a son-in-law.

Watching Xiu Min beckoning He Nan into the house, with no attention to him, her own son, Li Yue said sourly, "Mom, didn’t you see I’m back too?"

"Do you still need an invitation to come back to your own home?" Xiu Min didn’t even turn her head, "You’re so grown up; do you still need me to carry you inside?"

Li Yue: "..." My mom doesn’t love me anymore.

"Alright, I’ve come to welcome you, haven’t I? It’s cold outside, hurry up and come inside." Li Shiping said with a smile, urging her brother, who was always like a child who never grew up.

"As soon as Brother Nan arrives, I’m like the child of a stepmother."

Li Yue took the child from Li Shiping’s arms, played with her for a bit, and asked while walking into the house, "Brother-in-law didn’t come?"

The smile on Li Shiping’s face faded slightly, "He’s gone to his mother’s house."

Her husband, Wan Dongcheng, always said that her brother and father looked down on him, so he was reluctant to come over. Li Shiping had tried to convince him many times to no avail, so she always had to come by herself.

Fortunately, Wan Dongcheng was sensible and wouldn’t shirk during the holidays.

Seeing the expression on his sister’s face, Li Yue understood, but for his sister’s sake, he didn’t expose the truth.

Noticing that she was wearing old clothes from before her marriage, he frowned slightly, "Why are you dressed so thinly? Didn’t you buy yourself a new piece of clothing yesterday?"

Before she got married, his sister loved to dress up. After marriage, she rarely bought new clothes, a detail Li Yue had noticed long ago.

In private, he had given Li Shiping money to buy clothes, and she always agreed to buy them, but he never saw her wearing anything new.

Wan Dongcheng, on the other hand, was changing his wardrobe one piece after another.

"I have clothes to wear. Yesterday I bought Yunyun a new outfit." Li Shiping changed the subject, "The clothes from yesterday, do they fit well? Can He Nan’s sister wear them?"

Li Yue, seeing his niece dressed in new clothes, felt somewhat relieved, "The clothes are still in the car, haven’t been delivered yet."

As they talked, they had already reached the living room; he didn’t continue the subject any further.

Xiu Min invited everyone to sit down at the dining table, and He Nan asked lightly, "Uncle Li hasn’t come back yet?"

Glancing at the wall clock, Xiu Min smiled in response, "He’ll be here soon, any minute now. You guys sit first."

No sooner had she spoken than Li Julin’s voice was heard at the door, "Has He Nan arrived?"

He Nan took a couple of steps towards the entrance, "Uncle Li."

Li Julin nodded with a smile in acknowledgment, "Seeing the car in the yard, I knew you guys had arrived."

"Let’s not stand on ceremony, we’re all family here. Come and sit down to eat. Today, Shiping has bought some dried bamboo shoots, let’s see how they taste."

Xiu Min called everyone to sit down, and Li Shiping took the child from Li Yue’s arms. Before she could sit down, Xiu Min took the child from her.

"Sit down and eat, I’ll feed her."
