Su Yunqi was a well-known delicate beauty in the surrounding area. Unfortunately, the old Su family was too weak to protect her. After a rich gangster took a fancy to her, they had to hastily marry...
Chapter 59 The baby with clear logic
"Pfft, cough, cough, cough."
Lu Zhao and Su Yunqi burst out laughing, then almost choked to death and coughed for a long time.
After he recovered, Su Yunqi said with a smile.
"Baby, why should I listen to you?"
"Besides, your father usually listens to me. The only time I listen to him is when it comes to making money."
"Then sometimes Dad listens to Mom, and sometimes Mom listens to Dad. Sometimes I listen to Mom, and sometimes I listen to Dad. No one listens to me yet. So from now on, Dad will sometimes listen to me, and Mom will sometimes listen to me. Is that okay?"
Little boy Lu Yao's logic was very clear. He counted on his fingers for a long time. Although his words were a bit confusing, his meaning was clear.
Su Yunqi and Lu Zhao didn't know why their son was so smart. He knew so much at the age of three.
"No, you're just a kid, don't ask for so much every day."
Lu Zhao rejected his son's proposal. Is this a joke? As a father, he has to listen to his son. Then what is the difference between him as a father and his grandson?
"Why?"
Little Lu Yao pouted and was unhappy.
"Because you are still young, you don't know as much as adults, so you listen to us now, and we will listen to you when you grow up."
Su Yunqi explained patiently.
"But mom can listen to you. You said you wanted to eat fried shrimp cakes, so mom made fried shrimp cakes for you, right? You said you wanted your dad to buy you some candy, and he did buy it for you, right? Does that count as listening to you? But for other important matters, we, Xiaoyao, cannot participate in making decisions."
Su Yunqi touched his son's little head and answered his question seriously.
"Oh, it seems so. If that's the case, my grandparents sometimes listen to me. When I say I want to eat fried meatballs, my grandma will make them for me~~~~"
"Grandpa and grandma are the same, so many people listen to me!"
Little Lu Yao pondered for a few seconds, then clapped his hands happily. He was so happy that so many people listened to him.
"Well, you are lucky. So many people listen to you. Shouldn't you listen to me and your mother more and stop going against us?"
Lu Zhao pinched his son's face and took the opportunity to make a request.
Ever since this kid came into being, there has been one more source of laughter in the family.
He always says things that make people laugh and cry, and he is usually very noisy. One child is worth two. Lu Zhao is glad that they didn't have another one.
"I didn't go against my father and mother. I was very obedient."
Little boy Lu Yao had already gotten an answer that satisfied him. He obediently dragged the stool closer and sat down again. He held the bowl in his hands and continued to eat.
He could eat by himself when he was one year old. When he didn't know how to use a spoon, he used his hands. Now he can use his little spoon skillfully and can use chopsticks a little bit.
He's a very independent little baby.
"Be obedient, really? Then why didn't you take a shower yesterday and insisted on soaking in the water? What's the matter? You were a duck in your previous life, so you feel particularly close to water in this life and can't help splashing around in it?"
Lu Zhao raised his eyebrows in ridicule, and began to criticize his own son again.
"I don't know. I like playing in the water. Soaking in the water is cool and comfortable."
Little Lu Yao smiled at his father shyly, his eyes curved into crescents, with a grain of rice stuck in the corner of his mouth, looking silly.
"You can soak more in the summer, but you can't do that in the winter."
Lu Zhao taught him a lesson, then he took the rice grains from the corner of his mouth and stuffed them back into little Lu Yao's mouth.
There is some fatherly love, but not much.
"I know~~~"
Little Lu Yao didn't dislike his rice grains. He swallowed them down in one gulp, then nodded his head obediently, promising that he would never play in the water like this in winter.
"Xiaoyao is so good."
Su Yunqi was responsible for praising them. She didn't care about the little quarrels between the father and son, and Lu Zhao's occasional bad taste. This was a unique intimate behavior between the father and son.
After arranging things here, Lu Zhao bought tickets and took the mother and son to the provincial capital again. It was the first time for little Lu Yao to take a train, but he behaved very well. He did not shout or scream on the train, but just curiously leaned on the window to look at the scenery outside. He was exactly the same as Su Yunqi when he went on a long journey for the first time.
"Dad, Mom, the trees outside are flashing so fast!"
He nestled in Lu Zhao's arms, leaning against the window, and said in amazement, the train kept moving forward, and the surrounding scenery kept receding. There were trees planted on both sides of the train tracks, which disappeared in a flash.
"Trees don't move, only cars move, little brat, you'll understand when you grow up and study hard."
He loved to look through the window, so Lu Zhao would stand by the window with him and let him look as much as he wanted. After Su Yunqi stayed with him for a while, he felt sleepy and went back to bed to sleep. This time I bought a sleeper berth again. I played around on the train, took a nap, and arrived in the provincial capital the next morning.
I thought that little Lu Yao was somewhat uncomfortable when sleeping at night or was just used to his bed, but unexpectedly, he slept even more soundly in the car, saying that the rocking feeling was very comfortable.
"Now that we're here, I'll take you to a hotel. We won't go to a guesthouse because it's too shabby."
In three years, the provincial capital has developed rapidly and has become more prosperous and lively. Many new stores have popped up, offering everything, and many hotels have appeared. Now, as long as people are willing to spend money, they can stay more comfortably when traveling.
Lu Zhao took his daughter and daughter to a newly opened hotel. The entrance looked clean and tidy. After entering, it was several times larger than the guesthouse and looked bright.
“It’s so expensive to stay for one day...”
After seeing his father paying, little Lu Yao began to count with his chubby fingers, wondering how much candy he could buy with that money.
"Do children know what is expensive and what is cheap? We just got a chance to go out, so don't worry too much, baby."
Su Yunqi was not reluctant to spend money. They brought a lot of money with them this time. Apart from the serious business of attending the wedding banquet, the rest is just for fun.
Su Yunqi has already made up his mind to take Xiaoyao to the zoo, the amusement park, to the movies, and to go shopping in the big shopping mall. They don’t have these in the countryside, so now that they are here, they must take Xiaoyao to play with them all.
"That's right. Don't be too stingy, and don't look down on your father. The money we earn is for you and your mother to spend. After we spend it, we can earn more."
Lu Zhao said arrogantly, causing little Lu Yao and Su Yunqi to giggle.
"Dad is so awesome!"
"Yes, yes, we believe you!"
They each kissed Lu Zhao on the face.
Lu Zhao didn't even need the mother and daughter to feed him any love potions, he was already bewitched on his own. After putting away their luggage, they went out to look for food and had an early lunch. Then the family of three went to the dry goods wholesale market. Lu Zhao was going to see Boss Zhou.
It was quite a coincidence that the three of them went there. Not only was Boss Zhou there, but his young wife who was remarried was also there. He put his arm around her waist, and the two of them played and joked, looking very happy, completely ignoring his son and daughter standing beside them.
Although his two children were not covered in dust, they were dressed very simply, some even had nicks on their clothes, and they looked very thin. They both had grim expressions on their faces while selling dried goods to customers and collecting money.
They don't want to see the scene of their father playing and fighting with their stepmother who is dressed up in fancy clothes!
"Boss Zhou."
