Chapter 124 Chapter 124 Part 2

Shen Moer thought of her father's words that he would help his son-in-law's family if he had the chance in the future, and she felt a little headache. After thinking for a while, she said, "You can go and talk to your father first, holding your daughter."

Fu Mingze glanced at his daughter with a pair of big black eyes in his arms, knowing that this little girl was now his escape-from-death ticket in front of his father-in-law, and he couldn't help but feel fortunate that the little girl had arrived in time.

Shen Moer found it a little funny when she saw that he was holding his daughter as if he was holding an imperial sword.

She ignored the affairs of the father-in-law and son-in-law. She quickly washed up, had a quick breakfast, went into the house, closed the door, and opened the treasure house.

No matter what conflict she had with Fu Mingze, it was rude of her to not visit her elders after being in the capital for so long.

It's just that I've been busy buying a house, renovating it and settling down, so I really haven't had any time. Now school is about to start, so it's naturally impossible for me to wait until school starts to go to Fu Mingze's house.

Since you are going to visit your elders, you can't go empty-handed.

After all, she and Fu Mingze had come clean now, so she didn't have to worry about the price of the gifts, which was convenient. She didn't have to go to the department store or the supply and marketing cooperative to buy them, she could just pick some from the treasury.

The elders sent some supplements. The old man was just hospitalized before the New Year, and the old lady probably won’t be able to adapt well to the life in the frontier these years, so they both need to eat something to strengthen their body.

Also, since my parents-in-law were sent back from the countryside, they probably need some supplementary care as well.

Then I gave the old lady two fur scarves, my mother-in-law a piece of better cloth, and since my father-in-law was not a worker but a cultured person, I gave him a pen and ink.

As for my brother-in-law, it’s hard to choose gifts for a young man.

Shen Moer wandered around the treasure house for a while, and finally picked out a set of nine linked rings made of jade.

Others like my uncle and aunt are said to be still out of town, so there is no need to prepare gifts for the time being.

When Shen Moer picked out the gift, Fu Mingze and Shen Shaoyuan seemed to have already discussed it. There was no change in their expressions, and Shen Moer couldn't tell whether her father was angry or not.

"It's not polite to show up at the last minute, especially when it's almost lunch time."

Shen Shaoyuan said, "But we are all family, so we don't have to stick to these things. We can come to your house casually. You can tell your parents and grandparents. There is no need to prepare any big fish or meat. We can all sit down together and have a home-cooked meal and get to know each other."

Shen Shaoyuan held Xiao Liangliang and directed Fu Mingze: "Go to my room and get two bottles of wine. Don't take glass bottles, take white porcelain bottles."

Fu Mingze went into Shen Shaoyuan's room to get some wine. There were only two white porcelain bottles in a row of glass bottles. The porcelain bottles were cool and smooth to the touch, and the porcelain body was very thin and delicate. These wine bottles were obviously very good porcelain.

Fu Mingze couldn't remember whether he had seen this kind of porcelain bottle before, but even if he had seen it before, he would not reach out to touch it, let alone think about the craftsmanship of the porcelain bottle.

Only now that I have paid close attention, I realize that this is not the kind of porcelain vase that you can buy several of for one dollar in the supply and marketing cooperative.

Fu Mingze's mind was racing, but he didn't show any strange expression. He packed up his things, changed his clothes, and then led everyone out.

Originally, Zhou Ping'an was also invited. Zhou Ping'an had heard that Fu Zhiqing's family was relatively tight financially, and thought that as a grown man, he couldn't be so shameless as to go to someone else's house to eat for free. Besides, the capital was indeed cold, and he didn't want to go out, so he said that he would stay home and continue studying.

Shen Shaoyuan didn't care about him. He always let his disciples do whatever they wanted when teaching them. He never acted like a master and never forced them.

The family walked towards the bus stop. Xiao Liangliang was wrapped tightly in three layers of clothes, with only a pair of black grape-like eyes exposed. She looked at everything that appeared in front of her curiously, and her mouth kept talking all the way.

We arrived at Yongning Hutong with ease. As expected, it was already time for every household to prepare cooking. Occasionally, a rich aroma wafted through the hutong.

Shen Shaoyuan couldn't help but sigh that everyone in this alley had good conditions.

You have to know that supplies were scarce back then, and city dwellers had to calculate when they ate some meat. Naturally, all kinds of seasonings were considered "luxury goods", so the dishes people cooked were not that delicious.

As soon as Shen Shaoyuan finished speaking, the little kid in his arms smacked his lips, and a long stream of saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"Those who know you would say that you need to grow teeth, while those who don't would think that your mother starved you all day and made you like this."

Shen Shaoyuan wiped the corners of the little kid's mouth with a bib and teased him with a smile.

Xiao Liangliang stared at Shen Shaoyuan and whispered in a baby voice, "Ah Ma aa Ba a Pu Pu aaaaa".

Shen Shaoyuan laughed even more: “Oh, you can’t even speak, how pitiful.”

Just as they arrived at the gate of the Fu family's courtyard, the gate was open. Fu Zhiyuan was walking out and when he looked up he saw several people standing at the door of his house.

One is his adopted eldest son who has hardly been home recently, a young, beautiful and familiar-looking lesbian, and a gay man who looks to be in his thirties. In the gay man's arms is a little baby with round eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth that looks very much like his adopted eldest son.

Fu Zhiyuan reacted almost immediately, and a smile appeared on his usually serious face: "This is my in-laws and Mo'er, right?"

Although his father-in-law is only a dozen years younger than him, he looks like he is twenty years younger. However, his father-in-law and his daughter-in-law have very similar features and you can tell at a glance that they are father and daughter.

Shen Shaoyuan also smiled and said, "It must be Mingze's father. I am sorry for coming here without saying hello."

Fu Zhiyuan shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, we are all looking forward to your coming, come on, come in quickly."

While greeting, her eyes involuntarily looked at the little one in Shen Shaoyuan's arms: "This is Xiao Liangliang, the child is really well raised, in-laws, Mo'er, you have taken a lot of trouble!"

Shen Moer shouted with a smile, and said as she walked: “Dad, were you just about to go out? We can just go in by ourselves.”

"It's okay, it's okay. I wanted to go back to work. It's nothing important. I can just call back later."

Several people talked and laughed as they entered the yard. The old lady had heard the sound and came out of the house. When she saw Shen Moer, she said, “Oh, Moer, grandma has been waiting for you for a long time. You are finally here. Come on, it’s cold outside. Come in and sit down.”

Calling Fu Mingzhuo: "Mingzhuo, quickly call your mother's workplace and ask her to come back for lunch at noon. Also, tell Aunt Hu to cook a few more dishes."

The old lady gave instructions repeatedly, grabbed Shen Moer's hand and sat on the sofa in the living room, explaining: "After the old man was discharged from the hospital, the family found someone to help with the housework. He is a relative of your father's former subordinate. The two children in the family came back from the production team and couldn't find a job. Life is not easy without some income."

Then he turned to Shen Shaoyuan who was sitting on another sofa and said, "Mingze, although he has a smart face, he often does stupid things. When he went to the countryside, we were worried that something might happen to him in a foreign land, so we told him not to show off his wealth and just act like a poor boy. He was obedient and probably didn't dare to say a word to anyone over the years."

"This silly boy, he doesn't even think about it. If others can't say it, then why can't his wife say it? He is just too stubborn."

The old lady openly slandered her eldest grandson, but she was actually speaking on his behalf.

Shen Shaoyuan smiled: “These are all small things.”

The old lady also laughed: "Well, you are so generous that you don't bother with him. In my opinion, he should be punished."

She patted Shen Moer's hand: "Moer, punish him and make him cook for you, wash your clothes and wash your feet every day. Men are like children at any age. You can't just give in to him."

Shen Moer responded with a smile, thinking to herself that the old lady was so tactful and thoughtful, why was her grandson so taciturn?

The old lady talked to Shen Moer for a while, and then she turned her gaze to her great-granddaughter, her eyes full of doting and love: "This is our little Liangliang, oh, she looks so good, has a good personality, and doesn't make noise or trouble."

Taking the child from Shen Shaoyuan, the old lady spoke in a soft voice: “Oh, Liangliang, I’m the great grandmother.”

After Fu Mingzhuo finished his phone call and called everyone one by one, he came to his grandmother and looked at the little kid who looked very similar to his eldest brother curiously: "Is this my niece?"

Xiao Liangliang: "Ah ...

Dancing with joy.

It instantly melted the hearts of both the old and the young.

Fu Mingzhuo: "Liangliang, I am your uncle, uncle, uncle——"

Xiao Liangliang: "Ah baba baba chuchuchu baba baba."

Mr. Fu was originally resting in the house, but he came out when he heard the noise. After exchanging a few words with Shen Shaoyuan, he quickly joined the team that was entertaining the baby.

Fu Zhiyuan couldn't even get close to his granddaughter. He could only stand behind the old lady and look at the surrounded little kids with gentle eyes.

When dinner was almost ready, Yin Xiuwen came back, and the baby-entertaining team had a powerful member.

During the meal, Xiao Liangliang was transferred to grandma's arms. After all, grandma was too old and couldn't hold him for that long.

But the old lady fed the child egg custard with great interest.

The old man was amusing his great-granddaughter while eating, and unknowingly ate an extra bowl of rice.

After dinner, Fu Mingze took Shen Shaoyuan and Shen Moer for a walk. The family had already tidied up the room for Shen Shaoyuan. Seeing that Xiao Liangliang would not be back in his hands for a while, Shen Shaoyuan simply went to take a nap.

After dinner, the Fu family finally let Shen Moer and the others go back.

The old lady personally escorted them to the door, took Shen Moer's hand and said, "The yard where you live is close to the school. It's convenient to live there on weekdays. It's pretty good, but you should bring your children back more often on weekends and holidays. Grandma asked Aunt Hu to make delicious food for you."

There was no intention of forcing them to move back to Yongning Hutong.

Shen Moer held the hand of this transparent and open-minded old lady and said solemnly: "Grandma, thank you."

The old lady smiled and said, "It's grandma who should thank you. You don't know that Fu Mingze has been like his father since he was a child. He has a stern face all day long. The girls in the alley would drop their gold beans when they see him. If it weren't for you, I think he would have been a bachelor for the rest of his life."

After returning from No. 9 Courtyard, not only did Xiao Liangliang, who had been awake since the excitement of the crowds, fall asleep immediately, but Chen Moer also fell asleep immediately after washing up.

After getting up the next day, several people accompanied Liu Yinshuang to report for school. Liu Yinshuang said, "I'm already an adult, it's just a matter of reporting to school, why do I need anyone to accompany me?" But in fact, she happily took Xiao Liangliang away.

Well, I have no choice but to go with her.

The Foreign Languages ​​College wasn't far away, and the bus was only a few stops away. They avoided the peak travel hours, so there weren't many people on the bus.

After arriving at the station, as soon as I got off the bus, I heard someone shouting: "Fu Mingze——"

Shen Moer looked in the direction of the voice, and saw that it was a familiar face.
