really!
"So, sister-in-law, do you like eldest brother's face or him as a person? What if second brother also has that face and says he likes you—" Qiao Xinruo revealed her true colors.
And he was glared at fiercely by his own older brother.
"Sis, Big Brother just glared at me!" Qiao Xinruo immediately realized something was wrong after complaining and quickly switched targets, "Sister-in-law, Big Brother just glared at me!"
"Who told you to talk nonsense?" To everyone's surprise, Meng Yingxin didn't play by the rules at all. Instead of protecting her sister-in-law, she protected her boyfriend first. "Don't worry, I like your face and I like you as a person. I will never mistake you for Gao Yang."
Qiao Shouyan felt a surge of joy; it felt so good to be protected by his partner. He even smugly raised an eyebrow at his sister.
Qiao Xinruo: "..."
I can't stand it, I can't bear to look!
Over there, Qiao Gaoyang and Leng Yingying were locked in a fierce battle, eventually determining who was the best at setting off firecrackers, before being called home by their parents.
The original intention was for Meng Yingxin and Leng Yingying to go directly back to the army, but Liu Yuying insisted that they go to her home again.
"Uncle Qiao has prepared some food for you. Take it back with you, and ask the cafeteria staff to heat it up for you when you get home," Liu Yuying said.
Leng Yingying was initially going to be polite, but upon hearing that the food was made by Qiao Hanxue, she immediately agreed.
"I'm so sorry, but thank you in advance, Uncle and Aunt. You are such kind people!" Leng Yingying said sweetly.
[Wow, they still have food! They're such kind people, I love the female lead's family so much!]
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
It seems he still needs to learn from the food guide!
The two elders showed no favoritism towards their future eldest and second daughters-in-law, preparing the same food for them and packing it up for each of them separately.
"If you like it, come over to my house often, and I'll cook for you!" Qiao Hanxue said.
"Thank you, Uncle!" the two said.
Qiao Shouyan, who had just taken office, definitely had to send his girlfriend back to the military base.
Qiao Gaoyang was not to be outdone; he also wanted to give one.
Whether they've figured it out or not, we should spend as much time together as possible.
result--
"Why would I send you anything? It's very safe at the military base. Besides, I already know the way. How could I possibly run into any trouble from your house to the base?"
"Besides, you should know my skills very well," Leng Yingying said, patting Qiao Gaoyang on the shoulder like a close buddy. "Thanks, but there really won't be any surprises. You should get some rest too. I'm leaving!"
When they say they're leaving, they really mean it.
Leng Yingying didn't even wait for Qiao Shouyan and Meng Yingxin, even though they were clearly going the same way.
【Are you kidding me? I'm a very perceptive person!】
[Although it's really satisfying to ship couples face-to-face, I need to create opportunities for my favorite pairings! This dark place, with no one around, is perfect for a kiss!]
This queen has truly done immeasurable good deeds...
With these thoughts in mind, Leng Yingying picked up her takeout food and swaggered away.
Qiao Gaoyang: "..."
Isn't this running a little too fast?
Qiao Gaoyang watched Leng Yingying's departing figure, his face showing a look of wanting to cry but having no tears. He really didn't know how to describe how he had spent that day.
"Sigh..." Su Yueya and Qiao Xinruo shook their heads and sighed at the same time.
"Second brother, oh second brother, your love life is really..."
"It was too difficult!"
The two sisters each said something, making Qiao Gaoyang seem even more pitiful.
It's definitely been a bumpy road!
Then turn to look at the older brother's side—
The two had just started dating and were currently in the throes of a blissful romance, their eyes constantly locked in a tender gaze. The more Qiao Gaoyang looked at them, the more heartbroken he felt for himself.
"Big brother, you and sister-in-law should also be careful. Hurry up and take sister-in-law home!" Su Yueya called out.
Although it's during the holidays and the dorms won't be so strict with access control, it can't be too outrageous, after all, Meng Yingxin is a girl.
Fortunately, she was staying in a private dormitory provided by the weapons research group, which to some extent prevented her from being gossiped about.
On the other side, Liu Dekai and Mo Youyou slunk home with the crying Liu Shengrui, but the argument didn't stop there; it continued.
Since they were outside and so many eyes were watching, Mo Youyou didn't finish her sentence.
She now feels that Liu Shengrui's current state is all thanks to Zhang Cuihua, the great heroine, and she can't just let it go like that.
“I told you last time we came back from the restaurant that we can’t spoil Xiao Rui anymore. Did you just ignore me?”
"Zhang Cuihua, I'm warning you, if you continue to mislead my son, I'll really kick you out!"
Mo Youyou wasn't joking; after all, this suggestion was originally proposed by Mo Cheng and Jiang Rongmei, and she genuinely had this idea.
However, Zhang Cuihua didn't stay idle at home; she did a lot of work.
Mo Youyou doesn't need a mother-in-law, but she does need a free maid.
"Youyou, can't we talk this out properly? It's perfectly normal for this little boy to be a bit naughty, don't make a big deal out of it!" Zhang Cuihua didn't take it seriously at all.
She didn't feel that she was spoiling or pampering her child.
Which grandparents don't treat their grandchildren like this?
It's perfectly normal to pamper and spoil someone; what's wrong with that?
On the other hand, Zhang Cuihua complains that Mo Youyou and Liu Dekai, who are both parents, are not protective enough of their child and don't speak up for their own family members when they are outside!
They're completely siding with outsiders, I don't know why!
"You think I'm making a mountain out of a molehill?" Mo Youyou laughed in exasperation.
Is Liu Shengrui's behavior considered mischievous?
He threw firecrackers at a child wearing a thick cotton-padded coat. Was that mischievous?
"He was wrong today, but you still insist on arguing with him. Aren't you ashamed?" Mo Youyou retorted.
"Losing face is a small matter, I can't let my grandson suffer!" Zhang Cuihua said stubbornly.
How could she not know?
Especially today, when Wang Changhua told his son to throw it back, Zhang Cuihua realized that she had been applying double standards.
But what can we do about it?
She is Liu Shengrui's grandmother, and she protects Liu Shengrui. Is that wrong?
On the contrary, those who made sarcastic remarks and watched the show acted so righteous and awe-inspiring. If this happened to them, who knows if they would be even more biased than her!
It's easy for them to talk when they're not the ones suffering!
They can talk a good game about others, but when it comes to their own, they can't explain themselves at all!
“Youyou, Xiaorui is so well-behaved at home, look at him—” Zhang Cuihua pointed at the child.
Liu Shengrui cried all the way home until he was exhausted. He had finally made it back home and it seemed he really couldn't set off fireworks and firecrackers in the open space anymore. He cried and cried as he accepted this reality.
So at this moment, Liu Shengrui stood obediently, without crying or making a fuss, and continued playing with his toys at home.
"Look at him, look for yourself! How well-behaved is Xiao Rui? He plays with his toys by himself and doesn't need any adults to worry about him. Do you think the way you and Dekai disciplined him is right? He's so young, and you spanked his little bottom so hard. I don't even know if you hurt my grandson!"
