Chapter 214: Brotherhood plot

"Sorry, I can't stop her," the manager said behind the woman, embarrassed.
"It's okay, I know." Li Banzhuang nodded.
The manager took another look at the woman and hesitated to go downstairs.
At this time, there were not a lot of guests in Rodinger Glen. After all, there were not many people who tasted snacks and desserts at dinner time. When the waiter opened the door politely, the manager's eyes were attracted by the woman.
She wore a white coat, and simply tied the collar to her armpit with a red rope. The red embroidered cuffs were the only dazzling place on her body. The white pearl bracelet set off a pair of hands to make the color of the milkshake not enough. Rounded.
There are plain lotus flowers on the dress, and the legs of the gray burlap pants look like a flowing skirt when she walks. A few childish lotuses grow at the edges of the heel with a pattern of sharp corners. Below them are a pair of black high-heeled hard soles. Cloth shoes, making her step on the cork floor.
It is not easy for a woman to care about her looks at first sight, because her hair is a bit messy and is scattered randomly on one side of the cheek. The remaining thick long hair is wrapped in a wooden rafter behind her head, exposing a jade-like neck.
She is like a village woman who should be clothed with clothes by the river, and a hostess who cuts meat and wraps dumplings. The best place for her is the old house with green bricks and white tiles and a patio with plum and bamboo.
Rodingham's western style is incompatible with her.
This is the last time Li Banzhuang saw her in her memory. Was it three or four years ago? Or not so far, at least for a long time Li Banzhuang did not have a clear impression of her.
"Plum, happy birthday." The woman sat in the position of her older brother.
Li Banzhuang lowered her head and continued to eat the cake.
"Plum ..." The woman didn't seem to know what to say to Li Banzhuang.
"Plum ..." Li Banzhuang looked up, her eyes calmed a lot, "It's the name my brother can only call."
"I'm your mother." The woman was not angry.
"I didn't say you weren't."
"Knowing that your biggest wish when you were a kid is to hope that Mom will accompany you for a birthday, so Mom specially came back to accompany you today." The woman showed a look of pity and affection.
Li Banzhuang stared at her. She couldn't see the slightest guilt in this woman's eyes, and couldn't help sneering: "Accompany me? How long will you come back today and leave tomorrow? From childhood to age, your time at home adds up One year? "
"It's only half an hour this time, and I'll be leaving in a while." The woman smiled reluctantly and awkwardly.
"It doesn't matter, I'm used to it." Li Banzhuang didn't care.
The mother and daughter sat together, but were relatively speechless. Li Banzhuang didn't mean to talk to her more.
"Are there any boys you like in school?" The woman was speechless.
"No."
"Did any boy confess to you today? Has anyone done anything that touched you particularly?" The woman asked again.
Li Banzhuang gave her a strange glance: "Although you are not very familiar with you, this doesn't seem to be a question you will ask?"
"What's not familiar with me? I'm your mother." The woman coughed. "If you have these things, I'm not around you, talk to your brother. After all, you're a girl, you can't tell the clever words of a boy. Let your brother check. "
Li Banzhuang was silent for a while, and did not care about these words of the woman, "Is it really your brother and I who are born to you? I have never heard of you being a mother like this."
"Of course it is, you are biological brothers and sisters, I was born." The woman said seriously.
"It's a pity." Li Banzhuang's eyes were dim, "I always hoped that my brother and I were adopted by you, not your own children."
"You just don't want to be my daughter?" The woman was excited.
"Just like my brother and I are not the focus of your life. You are not the focus of my attention." Li Banzhuang's tone is calm, "I mean, I do n’t care if it is your daughter, I care about myself and Brother's relationship. "
"What are you thinking wildly? Brother is brother, sister is sister, what else do you want to have?" The woman seemed nervous.
"It has nothing to do with you." Although the other party has the identity of a mother, Li Banzhuang will not tell her what she is thinking.
"It seems that I came back wrong this time. I thought you always had such a wish, and hoped that I would accompany you for this birthday." The tone of the woman was more annoyed than sad.
"When I was a child, I always felt that mothers were extremely important to my children. Later I discovered that the reason why a mother is important is not only because she is the one who gave birth to me, but also the person who raised me, and most importantly The blood is thicker than the water's affection in order to form a complete mother-daughter relationship. "Facing this woman, Li Banzhuang couldn't hold back the heaviest emotions in her heart. For me, my elder brother is my most important person. My elder brother is my world. As for the others, I don't remember and don't care. "
"Then how do you think your brother treats you?" The woman did not seem to be a qualified mother. Even if her daughter said such things, she didn't have much emotion and instead cared about other issues.
Li Banzhuang's cheeks were reddish, and the girl's innocent eyes exuded a charming charm because of happiness.
"My wish this year for my brother to help me realize is that in this year, plum will be my brother's favorite person. He asked me what my wish was, otherwise he didn't know how to help me ... But I didn't tell him because Even if he didn't know it, he had been doing this, taking Li as his favorite person. "Li Banzhuang didn't care to tell her mother, because she probably wouldn't mention such things to her brother, she soon left.
"This is the truth. You are his favorite person. Love is like and responsibility. You are his favorite person. There is no one, because now he only carries his responsibility for your happiness." The woman said , Seems to feel a bit sick, looked at his face through the bright tableware.
"How do you know? Have you met your brother?" Li Banzhuang thought that this was probably the word that this mother said the most to make her feel happy.
"No." The woman quickly shook her head. "Right, what about others?"
"Go to the bathroom, don't you want to see him?"
The woman shook her head. "He doesn't need it."
"He really doesn't need it. You never took care of him, and you don't need it in the future. I will take over your responsibility, and my brother will take care of me in the future. He doesn't want to see you either. Hurry up and I don't want to see him. I'm in a bad mood because of you. "Li Banzhuang continued to bow down to eat the cake, a little cold, and her own attitude towards her mother was even more indifferent than that of strangers.
Sometimes, I ’m hurt too much, my heart wo n’t warm up, the scars just hide, but there is no way to heal, Li Banzhuang will never forget that when he was a child, he and his brother were crying hungry at home, but finally You can only fill your stomach with a spoonful of water.
If she had a child in the future, she would never let her be like this, so Li Banzhuang would be so straightforward and indifferent to this unfulfilled mother.
The woman sighed and left slowly.
Li Banzhuang sat there, stunned, and she also wanted a motherly love, which was not given by such a woman. Fortunately, she had a brother who loved her wholeheartedly. This love was enough to make up for everything.
The sweet smile of Li Banzhuang's mouth was raised. When can I feel the happiness of my brother because of the reward given by plum?
After a while, Li Rong came upstairs and saw Li Banzhuang still in a daze.
"Foolish?" Li Rong saw that she was a little too absorbed, and reached out and shook her eyes.
"You're crazy." Li Banzhuang gave him an annoying glance.
"Ah, you eat so much cake." Li Rong quickly sat down and ate, "Yes, I just met my mom just now, but she's gone again, she came to see you?"
Li Banzhuang quickly paid attention to his brother's face, and saw that he did not have a low, depressed expression, so he felt relieved. It seems that his brother, like himself, has let go. I no longer care about why my mother didn't care about the family anymore, the current family is only enough for brother and sister, it is enough happiness.
"I don't know what she is doing." Li Banzhuang said unhappyly.
"Oh ... it's okay, regardless of her." Li Rongji laughed twice.
"Eating cake, there is really truffle here, let me try it for you." Li Banzhuang took a spoon to feed Li Dao.
Lee quickly shied away, "I know how to eat."
"Do you dare to abandon me!" Li Banzhuang refused to feed him.
Lee had no choice but to eat the cake, but in addition to the special flavor of truffle, the unique fragrance of Li Banzhuang made the cake much more delicious.
Seeing his brother helplessly swallowing the cake, Li Banzhuang smiled a little to his head and continued to feed.
With a sip, Li Banzhuang fed the rest of the cake to his brother and ate it.
"Go." Li Rong looked at the time and asked Li Banzhuang.
Li Banzhuang stood up, holding Li Zhi's arm, and stretched out his fingers and wiped his lips with a little bit of cream in his mouth, smiling sweetly.
"It's disgusting." Li Dao squinted his teeth.
Li Banzhuang picked up his fist and hit him. "What do you know? This is sweet."
"Okay, you'll have the leftovers in the future."
"Dare you give me leftovers!"
"Sweet!"
"Hate, hurry up, dare to talk, be careful to go home later, Princess Xiu will let you eat leftovers."
After completing the checkout, Li Ban left Luo Dinglan with Li Banzhuang in the doubtful eyes of the manager.
"Really my sister?"
"should be."
"Will some sister eat the cream from the corner of brother's mouth with her finger?"
"This ... the plot of the brother-in-law is too serious." The manager could understand that, when he was a kid, he admired his brother, but then his brother became too outrageous after puberty. If he has always been a brother like Li, it may be I will have this kind of plot.
