Zhao said with a smile, "Anyway, you're all just staying at home, so why don't the whole family get together! After Su Su finishes her work, we'll go eat hot pot together! It's so delicious! Chang Lin works at a hot pot restaurant, and I heard he's been promoted to manager now! There are many other good places to eat in the city, so since we're here, let's try them all!"

Grandma Mo was somewhat tempted, but she hesitated, worried about spending too much money. "Let's just eat something simple! Those places are way beyond our reach!"

With so many people in the Mo family, how much money must they have to pay!

Zhao laughed, "Mother! Even if I say I won't go, Susu will still take us! The food there is really delicious! Since we're out, we should enjoy the service and experience it for ourselves! Don't worry about the money, Susu said there are coupons that will save us a lot, so we won't actually spend much!"

Mo Lao Er chimed in, “That’s right, Mom! It’s a rare treat to get out here! Besides, what’s the point of working so hard to earn money? Isn’t it so we can live a better life? We should spend our money wisely and experience a different kind of life!”

Mo Laoda chimed in, "We won't spend money recklessly or extravagantly, so don't worry! If it's too expensive, we wouldn't dare to spend it! Just relax and don't worry about money, enjoy yourself in the city! Mother, you should think of it this way: your son and daughter-in-law are capable, that's why they let you enjoy yourself, otherwise we'd be struggling to make ends meet!"

Grandma Mo and Grandpa Mo exchanged a glance and sighed softly. "Alas, what our son and daughter-in-law said makes sense. It's just that they're used to it, and it's a little hard to adjust to suddenly talking about enjoying life!"

However, what her son and daughter-in-law said was right. Even if they didn't take them, Su Su would still take them!

Su Su said that they should come to the city to experience a different life, so naturally, that would include the food that city people love!

They'll just do it first and ask for permission later. The money's already paid, so why wouldn't we go?

Sigh, just relax!

With such a filial son and daughter-in-law, why do they have to think so much?

Listen to your son and daughter-in-law, and enjoy whatever blessings you have!

If we keep refusing, who knows, maybe our son and daughter-in-law won't invite them to any good things in the future!

I'm terrified they'll tell!

Who wants to do something good, only to not get the other person's approval and instead be criticized?

I might as well hide away and eat whatever I want!

If that were the case, it would be truly tragic!

Grit your teeth and follow their arrangements. Anyway, your son and daughter-in-law won't harm them!

What others say is true. Listen to your son and daughter-in-law more, and think of yourself when there are good things. It's better than not thinking of yourself at all!

So, the two elderly people, having convinced themselves, settled down and stayed.

But they weren't idle either; they worked hard all their lives, and it was a habit they couldn't change!

Anyway, no one restricts their freedom, so they can do whatever they want, as long as they don't do anything bad!

As long as they don't cause trouble for others, nobody else cares about them!

In the dead of winter, there's not much to do, so I just did some housework to keep myself busy.

If it were in a village, it would probably be about the same!

At most, I'll go to the field to take a look and see if the vegetables are edible or if they've been frozen!

I don't dare go out in such cold weather!

"Mom and Dad! Su Su just sent someone to say that we're going out for hot pot tonight! We've already made a reservation!"

Zhao ran back happily and said that she had started preparing clothes for them to wear that night.

I had prepared warm new clothes for them before, but I was too busy to bring them back. I didn't expect them to come in handy now!

In fact, the Mo family has never lacked clothes. They make new ones from time to time. When they see new styles in the city, they can't bear to buy them because they are too expensive. Instead, they buy the fabric and make their own clothes whenever they have free time!

Even though tonight is just a dinner party, we still need to maintain a sense of occasion. After all, the people who go there are not ordinary people, so we naturally need to put some thought into our attire.

Not for any other reason, but also so that I can stand up straight!

Your clothes don't need to be flashy, but they must be clean, neat, and presentable!

The Mo couple knew that this was the city, and there were certain customs to observe, so they went along with Zhao's arrangements.

We can't lose face; we should spend money with our heads held high!

The Mo family girls were excited to hear that they were going out for hot pot tonight, and when they saw their new clothes, they jumped for joy!

There's no way around it, the clothes are just too beautiful!

They all liked it!

"Mom! Are these hair accessories for us? They're so pretty!"

"Yes! Your third aunt specially sent someone to bring it over. It's the latest and most fashionable style from the city! Your third aunt went to great lengths to get it! You must thank your third aunt properly, understand? Don't be ungrateful, your third aunt hates ungrateful people the most!"

"Okay! We understand! We will definitely not forget your kindness!"

"It's snowing heavily outside, so wear these cloaks to keep warm! Take your own things, I can't worry about that!"

"Um!"

In the afternoon, Su Nanxi and Mo Qinghe came to pick them up, and they all went together.

Seeing how well they were dressed, Su Nanxi praised them a few times.

They were all delighted to hear this. They trusted Su Nanxi's judgment; if she said it was beautiful, then it must be beautiful!

Putting aside others, they themselves think it looks great!

Stepping outside is like entering a beautiful scenic spot!

When they arrived at the hot pot restaurant, they got out of the car and went upstairs. Along the way, many people looked at them with envy.

There's nothing else to it, just look at their clothes!

The combination is so perfect, highlighting the strengths of each element and also exuding a very sophisticated feel!

After going upstairs and entering the private room, which was warm inside, everyone took off their cloaks and put them on the coat rack next to them.

"This shop is very lively, we'll have to wait a bit. Everyone, please sit down and chat for a while! I'll go out and take a look!"

After settling them in, Su Nanxi turned and left, and Mo Qinghe followed.

"Why did you come along? I just went to give some instructions and check what other good food there is, so I can order more!"

"There are a lot of people here, it's safer for me to stay with you!"

"Who else would dare to lay a hand on me?"

Who knows!

Mo Qinghe simply refused to go back!

Su Nanxi had no choice but to let him be; there was no point in going there anyway.

"Oh! Isn't this Su Su? You're eating here too? This upstairs isn't a place just anyone can come up to. Did you manage to book a private room? Sigh! You can't book one now. Why don't you join us? It won't hurt to have a couple more pairs of chopsticks! Fourth Master, what do you say?"

Su Nanxi was suddenly stopped by a woman dressed in a flamboyant manner. She spoke in a high-pitched voice, deliberately swayed her hips, and had a very arrogant attitude!

After staring for a while, Su Nanxi finally recognized who it was!

Tsk!

Who did I think it was?

Oh!

She knew it! How could she have a friend like that, who even calls her Su Su!

That would disgust her to death!

She wasn't born with a charming appearance, yet she tries to imitate others!
