Volume 1 Chapter 74 Chatting with the Pan Family
Sheng Wanze never thought of these things when he came back before. He only brought back some White Rabbit milk candies, canned fruits, and military water bottles.
At most, I asked him to use his connections to buy two skirts for Sheng Wanyan, but he never thought of buying clothes for his family.
So you still have to get married. With a wife, many things will become easier.
"Girls are considerate. Be nice to Xiaoyue in the future."
"Otherwise I won't acknowledge you as my son."
Mother Sheng looked at him viciously, and Sheng Wanze repeatedly promised that he would treat Pan Yue well after marriage.
"When you get married, everyone in this little family will be yours."
"You should also take some responsibility."
Mother Sheng felt a little sad. Her son had finally reached the age to get married, but time had passed too quickly.
"Mom, I know."
"As long as you have a plan in mind, I am looking forward to you getting married and having more children."
"Having children gives us hope."
Sheng Wanze nodded at his mother's words. He had always understood his family's concerns.
Every time I was injured during a mission, I didn’t dare tell my family, for fear that they couldn’t handle it.
Maybe when I have grandchildren, my parents will be comforted even if something really happens to me.
Mother Sheng didn't say much. She packed up everything and went to prepare today's ingredients.
I specially asked for leave today, so the whole day is enough for me to entertain the Pan family.
As for why Sheng Wanyan was not allowed to take leave to help at home...
Sheng's mother thought that this was her son's business, her job as a parent, and there was no reason for Sheng Wanyan, her younger sister, to be busy running around.
Normally, Sheng Wanyan works very hard to take care of the four elders on behalf of Sheng Wanze, and Sheng Wanze cannot take this hardship for granted.
What's more, she didn't want the Pan family to look down on their daughter and think that her daughter was destined to work hard and never complain.
What's more, taking too many leaves will be bad for my daughter's work. What she should do now is to work hard and make good contributions to the motherland.
"Help me chop the meat."
Sheng's mother assigned all the heavy work to Sheng Wanze. It would be foolish for a grown man not to do the work himself.
I worked so hard to give birth to him, what's wrong with using him?
Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng are also helping with some small chores. The two old people are still able to do things like washing and picking vegetables.
What's more, Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng are not that old, they are only in their 60s. In the countryside, women in their 60s still work in the fields.
And with Sheng Wanyan giving him spiritual spring water to drink on a regular basis, he is in very good health.
Sheng Wanze took down the two pounds of fresh meat hanging on the wall and started chopping it according to his mother's instructions.
Today, Sheng's mother plans to make braised fish, braised pork, meatballs, egg custard, a cabbage and tofu soup, two cold dishes and two stir-fried vegetables, and that's about it.
"Mom, I'm done chopping."
"Take a picture of the cucumber for me, and prepare the onions, ginger and garlic."
Mother Sheng picked up the chopped meat and made meatballs. Making these meatballs also took a lot of effort.
Sheng Wanze didn't dare to complain and continued to work according to his mother's instructions.
Sheng Wanyan did not leave work early on purpose. Her mother did not let her go home early when she went out today, and she could guess what her mother's intention was.
As a mother, Sheng's mother was making plans for her two children. As a daughter, she naturally would not waste her mother's efforts.
She is the daughter of the Sheng family and she has responsibilities as an elder, but her responsibilities do not include Sheng Wanze's share.
It’s not like the Sheng family is without sons, and she is not so great as to take on such a big responsibility alone.
Unless something happens to Sheng Wanze and he becomes paralyzed one day.
Otherwise, Sheng Wanze must fulfill his responsibility as a son.
She is not that saintly. Precisely because they are close relatives, some things must be sorted out, otherwise it will affect the relationship between siblings.
———
Sheng Wanyan went home and brought two kilograms of pastries and two kilograms of melon seeds. When she got home, the house was already full of guests.
The entire living room was not big. There were 11 people in total, including adults and children. Once they sat down, the entire living room was filled.
Mother Sheng was considerate enough to close her door, as well as her own door and the doors of Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng's rooms.
I'm not guarding against anyone, and a place like the room is not convenient for other people to see.
What's more, Sheng Wanyan is a girl, after all, a girl's room needs some privacy.
"Mom, I'm back."
"Take a rest when you come back."
Sheng's mother subconsciously wanted to ask her to go into the kitchen to help, but the Pan family was there, so she stopped talking.
"Uncle Pan, Aunt Pan, Hello Sister Xiaoyue."
Sheng Wanyan greeted them politely, and Pan Yue came forward enthusiastically, took her hand, and pulled her to sit down.
"Sister Yan'er is off work, are you tired?"
"Not tired, I bought some cakes, everyone can eat first."
Sheng Wanyan placed the things she bought on the table and specially took three pieces for the children of the Pan family.
"Thank you, sister~"
"Thank you, sister~"
"Thank you, sister. You are so beautiful!"
The son of the second brother of the Pan family is only five years old. He is the youngest child in the Pan family. He is chubby and looks at her with sparkling eyes.
Sheng Wanyan was stunned by his sudden compliment. How should she respond?
"You little brat just likes good-looking ones."
The second sister-in-law of the Pan family poked her son's head, but little Pan Linwu was not angry. He just kept staring at Sheng Wanyan.
"Sister Sheng, this child speaks without restraint. I apologize to you here."
When Sheng Wanyan heard what the second sister-in-law of the Pan family said, she smiled and shook her head. She quite liked hearing such compliments.
"It's okay... Children like to tell the truth..."
Sheng Wanyan took out eight White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket and gave them to the three children.
The eldest brother of the Pan family has a son and a daughter. The eldest son is 10 years old and the youngest daughter is 7 years old.
The eldest son Pan Linwen seemed to be very polite and sat obediently beside her. He thanked her every time she gave him delicious food.
The youngest daughter, Pan Linxin, looked well-behaved and shy, peeking at her from the side.
Sheng Wanyan noticed the helplessness in her eyes, and when little Pan Linxin saw her looking at her, she immediately shyly hid behind her brother.
Sheng Wanyan found it a little funny. After thinking for a while, she took out a cherry hairpin from her pocket and handed it over.
Little Pan Linxin is at the age where she loves beauty, and her eyes lit up when she saw such a beautiful cherry hairpin.
She wanted it very much, but her eyes were always on her mother. Only after the eldest sister-in-law of the Pan family nodded did she take it.
"Thank you, sister~"
"You're welcome."
Sheng Wanyan likes these children very much. Unlike those children who have no family discipline, they just come up and grab what they want.
If they can't get what they want, they'll throw a tantrum. She's quite afraid of these naughty kids. They can't be beaten or scolded, and they're unreasonable, which is very annoying.
"Auntie Pan, I haven't seen you for a long time. Yan'er has grown up and become more beautiful. Your mother-in-law is really lucky."
