Chapter 570: Like I'm Seriously Ill
"Aunt, how did you become like this? I almost didn't recognize you."
I saw that besides Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin, there was also a woman in the room.
Qin Jianjun didn't recognize her at first and was about to say hello out of politeness, but when he looked carefully he realized it was his aunt Ma Suyun.
He hasn't been back for more than half a year. During this period, no one in the family has changed much, even his grandparents are still the same, except for this old aunt.
At first glance, he looked like a terminally ill patient, with more wrinkles on his face than his mother's, his complexion was gray and yellow, and he was so thin that he looked like a skeleton.
Ma Suyun didn't care about Qin Jianjun's eyes, but felt a little proud.
"Well, it's not that your brother is too noisy that makes me unable to eat or sleep well all day. This little thing has been naughty since he was in my mother's belly. You can tell at a glance that he is a smart one. But don't worry, pregnancy is like this."
Qin Jianjun couldn't help but twitch his lips.
Who was worried? He was just scared when he suddenly saw a healthy person become so thin that it seemed like only bones were left, as if he had some serious illness.
I didn't expect that I was pregnant.
But is all pregnancy like this? His fourth aunt is also pregnant and seems to be a little fatter than before, which is not the case.
However, although he had doubts, Qin Jianjun did not pay much attention to it.
He placed the snack box in front of the two elderly people and opened it while saying, "Grandpa, grandma, these are the snacks I bought from the city. There are many kinds of them. Some are crispy, some are soft, this one is stuffed, and this one is rolled with cream..."
Old Mrs. Qin smiled so hard that her toothless gums were exposed. "Oh my, it's not easy for you to work outside and make money. Save your money to marry a wife. Your grandfather and I have food and drink at home, so don't worry about us."
Ma Suyun saw what Qin Jianjun was holding as soon as he came in.
When the snack box was opened, she could smell the snacks from a distance. Looking at the exquisite snacks inside, she swallowed subconsciously, "Look at what you said, isn't this Jianjun's kindness? Jianjun has really grown up and knows how to buy delicious food to honor his elders."
Qin Jianjun knew that grandma had bad teeth, so he picked a piece of soft fruit and put it near her mouth. "Grandma, try this. The cream in it is delicious."
Old Mrs. Qin took a bite from his hand. The cake was so soft that it almost melted in her mouth. The aroma of eggs and milk was something she had never tasted before.
"Milk, is it delicious?"
"It's delicious. I've never eaten such a delicious cake in my life."
Old Mrs. Qin was so moved that she almost cried.
The love she had given her eldest grandson for so many years was not in vain. He bought her new clothes with the money he earned and also bought her such delicious snacks.
"I'll just eat two bites and let your grandfather have a taste," she would save the rest to eat slowly.
When I see my old sisters during the Spring Festival, I will have to show it to them. I guess no one is as lucky as her.
Qin Jianjun insisted on stuffing the cake into the old lady's hands, "And here's what else, my grandfather likes stuffed ones. Grandpa, I'll give you this one with jujube paste filling."
"Do you have dates paste filling?" Old Master Qin took it and took a bite impatiently. "It's delicious, really delicious, fragrant, soft and sweet. The only stuffed snacks I've eaten before are those with white sugar and green silk filling. This one is much better than that one. It's worthy of being a snack in the city."
"If it's delicious, eat more. I'll buy more for you next time I come back."
Old Master Qin was so happy that he didn't even look at his face. He ate every bite with relish. Seeing that after he had finished a piece, Qin Jianjun stuffed another piece into his hand, Ma Suyun became a little restless.
She smiled and said, "Jianjun is really filial. This snack looks good. We can't buy it here. It smells delicious. When your uncle worked at the hardware company, he also bought snacks for your grandparents. At that time, your uncle also wanted to buy good ones, but what good ones can we get in our small county? There are only peach cakes and egg cakes."
She stretched her neck to look into the pastry box. "I've never seen that cream-rolled cake before, let alone eaten it. I don't even know what cream tastes like."
Qin Jianjun had been paying attention to his grandparents. He heard the obvious meaning in old aunt's words and looked at the snacks in the snack box, wondering whether he should give way to old aunt.
To be honest, the old aunt and the fourth aunt don't have a good relationship. She even spread rumors about the fourth aunt, so he doesn't like this aunt very much.
If she wasn't his aunt, they wouldn't even say a word when they met.
But in front of his grandparents, the old aunt kept praising him.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you.
Just as I was thinking about it, a fucking sound came from outside.
"What does cream smell like? It smells like milk, the same as the milk from the big cow raised by Old Chen's family at the west end of the village. I remember that you can't stand the smell of these fishy smells when you are pregnant. Jianjun, put this snack box away quickly. You can't put it here with your grandma. Your aunt can't stand the smell when she is pregnant. She will vomit soon. Take it to your room quickly. Your grandparents will go to your room when they want to eat it. You don't know how hard it is for your aunt to be pregnant. We have to be more considerate of her. She often comes to your grandma's place, and we can't let her suffer anymore."
Qin Jianjun wanted to tell his mother that although cream has a milky taste, it is neither fishy nor smelly.
Then he saw his mother winking at him.
Qin Jianjun was confused, but he quickly closed the snack box and said, "Okay, then grandpa and grandma, I'll put the snack box in my room. You can go get it from me. If you want to eat it, you can ask me to bring it to you."
Seeing that Qin Jianjun was really going to take the snack box away, Ma Suyun became anxious.
"Hey Jianjun, what are you saying? Your grandparents are so old, why do they have to run to your room just to have a snack? Aren't you just bothering them? Since you bought it for your grandparents, why not just put it here with them? They can eat it anytime they want. Why bother? It's as if you're afraid your grandparents will eat it."
Before Qin Jianjun could speak, Qian Chuncao spoke first.
"Our Jianjun is not that kind of kid. Since he bought it for the old man and the old lady, he wanted them to eat it. If he put it in their house, who knows who will eat it in the end."
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by saying this?" Upon hearing this, Ma Suyun was annoyed. "Just explain it clearly. What do you mean it may end up in someone's mouth? Since it's for my parents, it belongs to them. They can eat it however they want and give it to whoever they want. You say you are filial to my parents, but you don't give it to them. I don't know what your intention is. I know you don't like me for a long time. If you are afraid that I will eat it, just say it. I don't want to eat my parents' food. It's because my parents love their grandson. The one in my belly is their last grandson. Isn't it right for them to love him?"
Qian Chuncao sneered and didn't even want to glance at Ma Suyun...
