Chapter 213 Mother of Luo's Visit

That day, Li Mu gave Zhu Suosuo a rare day off, and the three of them played cards together at home while Aunt Wu was busy cleaning and preparing lunch.

Suddenly the doorbell rang, and Aunt Wu opened the door. Luo's mother came in carrying large and small bags.

Before the person even arrived, the sound had already reached our ears from afar.

"Jiaming, come and see what delicious treats Mom brought you."

Li Mu greeted her with a smile. Just as he took the things from her, Zhu Suosuo ran over and hugged Luo's mother.

She called out affectionately, "Auntie, I miss you, I want to eat your cooking."

Looking at Zhu Suosuo, her future daughter-in-law, Luo's mother was very happy. Suosuo had never been so close to her before.

It seems that letting Suo Suo move in with her son and take care of his daily life was the right move.

At this moment, Jiang Nansun also came over, looking at her future mother-in-law, wanting to leave a good impression.

She said gracefully, "Hello, Auntie."

Mother Luo looked at her with some doubt, wondering who this beautiful and elegant young girl was.

He said very politely, "Hello, hello."

Zhu Suosuo quickly introduced, "Auntie, this is Nansun, my best friend. I've told you about him before. He even came to our house to play when we were in middle school."

Luo's mother suddenly remembered that this was Suo Suo's best friend, whom she must have met through some good luck. Suo Suo lived in a small villa on Fuxing Road and was definitely a rich young lady.

Thinking of this, I became even more polite.

"You are Nan Sun. As expected of someone from a wealthy family, you are very beautiful and have a great temperament."

Faced with her future mother-in-law's praise, Nan Sun smiled and said, "Auntie, you're too kind."

After sitting down in the living room, Luo's mother laid out the things she had brought one by one. Most of them were food, and there were some other necessities. Aunt Wu put these things away one by one.

After chatting for a while, Luo's mother stared at Zhu Suosuo and asked, "Suosuo, there are no outsiders here. You've lived with Jiaming for so long, what do you think of Jiaming?"

Zhu Suosuo blushed and whispered, "My cousin is very nice!"

Mother Luo clapped her hands happily and said, "That's good. You two grew up together since you were little, childhood sweethearts. I've always considered you my daughter-in-law. I've been waiting for the day you get married so I can hold my grandson."

“Before, Jiaming’s abilities were not yet apparent, so I didn’t feel comfortable speaking up. Now that Jiaming has great abilities and can support his family, it’s time to take care of your business.”

These words made Suo Suo blush deeply, unable to contain her joy, and she lowered her head shyly.

On the other side, Nan Sun's heart sank, filled with bitterness. She hadn't expected this to happen. Thinking about it, it was quite normal. Suo Suo had often complained to her that Luo's mother had treated her like a child bride, raising her as her daughter-in-law from childhood to adulthood.

Now that the conditions are right, and they want to have a grandchild, it's only right to urge the two of them to get married.

But who is she? She's Li Mu's official girlfriend now, but unfortunately, it's not public. Neither Suo Suo nor Luo's mother know.

Li Mu quickly interjected, "Mom, what are you saying!"

Mother Luo smiled and said, "Jiaming, I'm not talking nonsense. You're not young anymore, it's time for you to get married. I'm still waiting to hold my grandson."

Then he turned to look at Zhu Suosuo and asked, "Suosuo, are you willing to marry Jiaming?"

Zhu Suosuo's face was flushed, and her usual carefree personality was completely gone.

After a long pause, she whispered, "I'll listen to my aunt."

Upon hearing this, Luo's mother was overjoyed and clapped her hands, saying, "Good, Suosuo, it's good that you agree. I'll take care of Jiaming's side and get things done as soon as possible."

"I can finally relax and wait to hold my grandson."

Looking at Nansun, who was forcing a smile, and Luo's mother, who was getting more and more excited as she talked, as if she could hold her grandson tomorrow, Li Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He quickly pulled Luo's mother towards the study.

"Jiaming, why are you pulling me?"

"Mom, come here for a second, I need to tell you something."

Left with no other choice, Luo's mother had to go with Li Mu.

Upon entering the study, Li Mu closed the door tightly; the soundproofing here was quite good.

He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mom, there's something I forgot to tell you."

Mother Luo asked curiously, "What's the matter? Why do you have to come all the way here to tell me?"

Li Mu said, "Actually, I already have a girlfriend."

Mother Luo was taken aback.

"You already have a girlfriend? Aren't you living with Suo Suo? Isn't Suo Suo your girlfriend?"

Li Mu shook his head: "She's not my cousin."

Mother Luo's face hardened, and she rarely lost her temper: "You brat, tell me clearly what happened."

“Suo Suo grew up with you since you were little, and you know her inside and out. She knows that you have liked her since you were little, and your mother has always been raising her as her daughter-in-law.”

“You’ve made something of yourself now, you don’t even need the chain lock anymore. But no one you find outside is someone you grew up with and know well. I don’t approve of this. You need to tell me clearly who it is.”

Li Mu pointed outside and said, "Mom, you've met Nan Sun too. She's my current girlfriend."

Mother Luo's mind went blank: "Nan Sun, that very elegant and pretty young girl sitting outside, is Nan Sun from the small villa on Fuxing Road."

"You...you guys..." He looked incredulous.

Li Mu nodded and said, "Yes, it's her. She's my girlfriend now."

Luo's mother was stunned for a long time before she gradually accepted what her son had said. He had actually found a rich girl who lived on Fuxing Road. When did her son become so popular with girls?

"What about Suo Suo? Mom can tell she likes you, and I've watched her grow up since she was little. You can't let Suo Suo down!"

Li Mu said, "I'm still keeping my relationship with Nan Sun a secret from Suo Suo. I don't want her to know because I'm afraid she won't be able to accept it."

"I will discuss with Nan Sun next and try to find a proper solution."

Mother Luo was also troubled. Her son had found a wealthy young lady who lived in a small villa on Fuxing Road. She was beautiful and elegant, clearly a lady from a respectable family. She should be happy.

However, her niece had grown up by her side since childhood and had always been groomed to be her daughter-in-law. Her son's sudden actions were something she couldn't accept.

"Jiaming, Nansun is so beautiful and elegant, and her family background is so good. It's not easy to keep a woman like that. Most people can't handle her. Suosuo is so much better! You two grew up together, you know each other well, she will definitely live a good life with you."

“Son, you must not be too ambitious. Young ladies from wealthy families like that are not easy to raise. Someone like Suo Suo is better. I have raised her for so many years. She is proficient in cooking, cleaning, and housework. She is more reliable and easier to raise.”

"Listen to Mom. The daughters of wealthy families are beautiful, and it's a good thing to take them out, but they're too pampered. We can't afford to raise them."

Li Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Mom, what era are we living in? You still have this kind of thinking, like a rich family's daughter. Besides, what's wrong with your son? How come you can't afford to raise him?"

"Even if you marry both Suosuo and Nansun, you can still afford to raise your son."

Chapter 214 Comfort

Mother Luo glared at him: "What nonsense are you talking about! You're lucky enough to marry one good girl like Suo Suo Nan Sun, and you want to marry two? You're just asking for trouble!"

Mrs. Luo was unaware of Li Mu's financial situation, but the mindset she had cultivated over the years told her that women were traditionally expected to marry up. How could the Luo family, living in a lane alley, afford to marry the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, who lived in a small villa on Fuxing Road?

Li Mu smiled and didn't argue. He really intended to marry both of his best friends.

"Mom, don't worry. Although Nansun's family is well-off, your son is also capable. Don't you know that besides working at Microsoft, I also run a company, which I usually have Suosuo manage for me?"

"This company makes a lot of money. If you don't believe me, just ask Suo Suo and see how much they're making. I'm planning to get you a bigger house sometime soon!"

Luo's mother had heard about his company and that it was doing well, but she didn't expect it to be this good.

With a sense of relief, he shook his head and said, "We don't need to move. We've lived in this alley for half our lives. We're all neighbors, and we're used to it."

"Mom has only one request: get married quickly and have a big, healthy son. While Mom still has the strength, I can help you take care of him."

Li Mu nodded helplessly: "I understand. I guarantee I'll find you a daughter-in-law within a year."

"However, you should not interfere in other matters. Whether I marry Nansun or Suosuo, or both of them, you can only support me and cannot have any other opinions."

Although it's a pity about Suosuo, who was the daughter-in-law they had worked so hard to raise, and they don't know if they can still marry her, for Luo's mother, her son is the most important thing. As long as Jiaming is happy and she can hold her grandson soon, anything is negotiable.

Besides, even though she just said all sorts of bad things about Nan Sun, in reality, if Nan Sun really married into the family, Mother Luo would be absolutely thrilled.

For an ordinary family from a lane to marry the daughter of a wealthy family living in a villa on Fuxing Road, who is also so beautiful and clearly a lady of high birth, is such a prestigious thing.

After much persuasion, Li Mu finally managed to calm Luo's mother down. Only after seeing her off did Li Mu breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at Zhu Suosuo's beaming face, Jiang Nansun forced a smile, realizing that marrying two women was a long and arduous task!

The next day, Nan Sun was in a bad mood. It wasn't until after 10 p.m., after Suo Suo had rested, that she secretly went to Li Mu's room again.

After their exercise, Nan Sun lay panting on Li Mu's chest for a long while before she finally calmed down and said softly, "Jiaming, Auntie likes Suosuo so much, what should we do?"

Li Mu gently stroked her fair and smooth skin with one hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, my mom doesn't know the situation. If she had known you were my girlfriend this morning, she definitely wouldn't have said that."

Jiang Nansun asked nervously, "Auntie has been raising Suosuo since she was little, and she sees her as a potential daughter-in-law. Besides, you and I grew up together. If I suddenly come into this picture, will she like me?"

Li Mu kissed her on the cheek: "Don't worry, I'll definitely like it. You're Miss Jiang, so be confident."

Jiang Nansun's face still showed worry.

"But what about Suo Suo? She likes you. She was overjoyed when she heard that her aunt wanted you two to get married."

"We haven't told her we're together yet. If she finds out in the future, she'll definitely be very sad."

"I feel like I've let Suo Suo down. She's my best friend. I knew she liked you, but I still ended up like this with you. Was I wrong?"
