Yao Xiujuan picked her up gently and placed her in Mrs. Chu's room, laying her flat next to the one sleeping there. Then she walked out of the room and saw Chu Tian standing up, so she walked over and whispered.

"Brother Tian, ​​I thought you would never get angry with Xinxin..."

Chu Tian smiled and said, "I'm not angry. I'm just educating her..."

“····”

Yao Xiujuan wanted to say, wasn't that considered getting angry? When Chu Tian's face suddenly turned serious, not to mention Xinxin, even she was shocked when she saw it...

Seeing Yao Xiujuan's indescribable expression, Chu Tian laughed, "Xiujuan, there are many things to learn when it comes to raising a child. Although I pride myself on being a kind and good father, when a child makes a mistake, I still have to be strict when necessary. It doesn't mean that I love her so much that I will only spoil her blindly!"

"That's not good for her, it's hurting her!"

Yao Xiujuan looked at Chu Tian intently for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's good. I was worried that Brother Tian would dote on her too much and spoil her!"

Chu Tian was surprised and looked at Yao Xiujuan in disbelief. "Xiujuan, why do you think so? How could I possibly spoil her?"

"I pampered her and tried my best to satisfy her every wish. I wanted to tell her that her parents could satisfy whatever she wanted. She must have a long-term vision and must not be tricked into moving forward when she grows up with just a few words or a little benefit!"

“·····”

Yao Xiujuan couldn't argue with Chu Tian, ​​so she had to wave her hand helplessly and turned back to the kitchen to prepare dinner!

After hearing what Chu Tian said, old lady Chu in the house smiled and shook her head, thinking that her beloved grandson was right in thinking about these twisted ideas, even if she thought about them carefully!

"Dad, Mom..."

It was just after two in the afternoon when Yao Youjun got home. Everyone was at home eating at this time, so when he excitedly pushed open the door, he saw his parents and sister sitting in the main room eating, so he ran in with surprise.

Yao's father and mother were so surprised that they didn't even bother eating the meal. They stood up and ran to Yao Youjun at the same time.

Father Yao was a man after all. He just stood in front of him, looked him up and down, and nodded with satisfaction. "Not bad, not bad. You look energetic and in good spirits!"

Yao's mother was already touching him all over, pinching his arm and patting his chest. She was so excited that she didn't know what to say.

Yao Youjun let his parents stare at him, grinning foolishly. "Dad, Mom, I'm fine! At the factory, the cafeteria serves meat every few days. It's not much, but there's always some oil in the dishes."

"Look, am I taller than I was right after the Chinese New Year?"

Upon hearing this, Yao's mother actually gestured to Yao's father. Before Yao Youjun went to work, Yao's father had pointed at Yao Youjun's eyebrows, but now it seems that Yao's father had only reached Yao Youjun's mouth. He was very surprised.

"Oh, it's true! Then you are almost as tall as your brother-in-law now?"

Yao Youjun shook his head in surprise, "How is that possible? My eldest brother-in-law is over 1.8 meters tall, and I'm only 1.78 meters tall..."

Father Yao praised, "Not bad, young man, I hope you can grow to 1.78 meters. It's much better than Liu Donggua in our team who is less than 1.2 meters tall!"

Yao Youjun was stunned. He wondered if the Liu Donggua his father was talking about was sick. Not only was he as short as a ten-year-old child, he had short limbs and an exceptionally sturdy upper body. From a distance, he looked like a winter melon, so the people in the team didn't call him by his name in private, but called him Liu Donggua.

Yao's mother slapped Yao's father in displeasure. "What nonsense are you talking about? How can my son be compared to that Liu Donggua?"

Yao's father explained weakly, "How can I compare..."

Yao Youjun helplessly watched his father being suppressed by his mother. Just as he was about to say something, he heard Yao Xiuli walking beside him and speaking.

"Brother, you haven't eaten yet, right? There's a bowl of dumpling soup in the pot. Can I bring it to you?"

Yao Youjun nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, little sister."

Yao Xiuli pursed her lips and smiled, "Brother, you've been working for a few months and you've become polite!"

Yao Youjun smiled embarrassedly and didn't say anything else. Instead, he sat on the chair, holding his chin with one hand. Looking at his father being so humble in front of his mother, he couldn't help laughing and thought to himself, it's so good to be home!

After lunch, Yao's father asked Yao Youjun.

"Friendly Army, are you back here on leave?"

Yao Youjun shook his head and explained, "No, it's my own leave. I only took one day off the month before last, and I haven't taken any leave at all last month or this month! It just so happens that the factory is sympathetic to those who live far away and allows them to combine their leave days. All they need is a note from the director for consecutive days off."

Father Yao nodded. "So, you can stay at home for eight days this time?"

Yao Youjun thought for a moment and said, "To be exact, it should be seven days, because I have to take the shuttle bus back to the steel plant at noon in the sixth day, and now the shuttle bus schedule has been changed. It used to run two buses a day, but now it's only one..."

"Um···"

Father Yao nodded, lit the Mohe cigarette that Yao Youjun bought for him, and slowly started smoking.

Mother Yao looked at the piece of cloth Yao Youjun bought for her with great pleasure. After a moment, she thought of something and asked, "By the way, didn't you go see your eldest sister before you came back?"

Yao Youjun shook his head. "I went to see my elder sister during my last break. This time, I was afraid I'd miss the bus, so I didn't go. I plan to go see my elder sister during my break next month and return these two months' salary to my elder brother-in-law!"

Yao's mother nodded, paused, and then said, "How was your relationship with Lifang the last time you went back? Was there any..."

Before he could finish his words, Yao Youjun interrupted him and said, "Mom, please don't think about me and my brother-in-law and cousin anymore!"

Yao's mother was stunned, Yao's father was stunned, and even Yao Xiuli, who had been quiet all the time, was stunned.

"Brother, what do you mean? You really are not worthy of Sister Lifang, right?"

Yao's mother frowned and looked at Yao Xiujuan unhappily, "Xiu Li, what are you talking about your brother? Even though he's not that great, he's still your brother!"

Yao Lifang curled her lips in dissatisfaction.

“····”

Yao Youjun glanced at his mother helplessly before looking at Yao Xiuli, "Xiuli, is my brother so bad in your eyes?"

Yao Xiuli said confidently, "It's not that brother is too bad, it's that Sister Lifang is too good. Brother, you don't deserve her!"

Mother Yao glared at Yao Xiuli fiercely, then turned to look at Yao Youjun, who looked helpless, and asked anxiously, "Youjun, stop paying attention to your sister and tell me what you meant just now. What do you mean by not mentioning it in the future? Why can't you mention it? What's the matter? Do you have a girl you like?"
