Xu Qingsong whispered to Liu Wangxue, "From childhood to adulthood, only Aunt Yuehua is the best choice to control Tao Huayu. Just wait and see, in the next second, he will definitely be back."
Sure enough, Tao Huayu didn't say a word and honestly returned the box to Youyou. He also took the opportunity to secretly move his back.
Tao's mother has been doing farm work all year round, so her hands are really strong. When Tao Huayu was slapped, he really felt his entire back numb.
Youyou took the box, looked at him very warily, and then quickly stuffed the box into Jinghe's hands: "Brother, protect it well!"
Jinghe thought his brother was really cute and nodded with a smile: "Okay, brother will protect it!"
Youyou leaned against Jinghe, looking very proud: "Uncle Huayu, you are cute again now."
Tao Huayu directly rubbed the curly-haired boy: "You little brat——"
All the adults laughed.
The luggage for the family of four was all placed in the trunk. It was getting late, so we had to leave.
When Tao Huayu drove the car out of the yard, Tao Qinglei and his family came over, carrying a lot of things, all of which were local specialties from the farm.
Tao Huayu got out of the car and said, "Uncle, aunt, what are you doing with these?"
Qinglei's mother carried a big rooster and a basket of local eggs and turned away from Tao Huayu: "It's not for you."
Then she walked towards Gu Qingyue. When Youyou saw the big rooster, she immediately pulled Jinghe to hide behind Shen Nian'an.
Qinglei's mother said, "Teacher Gu, Nian'an, you should take all of this. The chickens in the city are definitely not as delicious as the ones we raise in the countryside."
Qinglei's father carried two bags of fresh vegetables and said, "You guys were leaving without telling me in advance. His mom and I picked them in a hurry and didn't even have time to wash them."
They saw Shen Nian'an and his family of four pulling suitcases passing by the door in the morning. After asking, they found out that they were going back to Beijing.
The couple didn't even have time to clean up their dishes before going to the fields to pick vegetables, then collected eggs and caught a rooster, fearing that they would miss it in time. Fortunately, it happened.
"The people in my hometown are so warm and welcoming." Shen Nian'an thought, but they couldn't lead them.
Shen Nian'an said, "Aunt, you are not allowed to bring live chickens on the plane."
Gu Qingyue also said so, and Tao Huayu followed suit.
Tao Qingxin muttered quietly to the side: "I told you not to bring him, and you can't bring him, but you won't listen to my advice."
Then he was glared at by his father, who was a little annoyed: "Then you still have time, I will go home and kill him, and then bring him back to you."
"It's too late. The Huayu car has already come out. We'll leave now." Shen Nian'an said.
Qinglei's mother handed them the eggs and said, "It's OK if we can't take the chicken with us, but eggs and vegetables aren't always alive and kicking, so can we take them with us?"
Tao Huayu couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Uncle, aunt, who has taken these out? To be honest, they didn't finish the ones you gave to Brother Shen last time, and they all went to me."
Qinglei's mother was unhappy: "You have less food every day or something..."
Dad Tao interrupted them: "Okay, the child is not gone and will never come back. Can't we live without you or your family?"
Tao's mother also smiled and said, "We will be back during the winter vacation. Nian'an and his family will stay in the village for the New Year this year. If you want to send them, no one will care how much you want."
"Okay, get in the car, get in the car. It will be too late if we don't leave now." Tao Huayu opened the car door and said to Shen Nian'an and the others.
Shen Nian'an let the two children get in the car first, and then they went to hug Pengpeng and Xiaoci.
Qinglei's parents followed him for a few steps, and seeing that he really had no intention of taking her, they repeatedly confirmed with him: "Are you really coming back for the New Year?"
"You're really back!" Shen Nian'an said affirmatively.
Qinglei's mother was happy: "That's fine, come to my house for dinner during the Chinese New Year."
Gu Qingyue gave Tao Qinglei a few more instructions: "Study hard during the training camp and don't fall behind in your academic studies. If you encounter any problems later, contact me in time."
Tao Qinglei nodded and said, "Don't worry, Teacher Gu."
"Let's go--" Tao Huayu got into the driver's seat, closed the door, and drove away.
After the car left, Tao's parents scolded Qinglei's parents: "What are you doing with these things? Not only are they difficult to carry, but they also don't look good. Which young people today would want to carry these when they go out, especially a live chicken."
Tao Qingxin answered: "That's right, I told him, but my dad wouldn't listen, and neither did my mom..."
"Brother, just shut up." Tao Qinglei advised him.
As expected, Tao Qingxin was glared at by his parents again.
"Why can't we bring it?" Qinglei's mother disagreed, "Ours are all organic, they're so expensive in the city."
"There are chickens, why don't you say there are ducks?" Tao's mother retorted with a smile.
Qinglei's father suddenly looked at Xu Qingsong and asked, "Qingsong, tell me, if it were you, would you be willing to take care of him?"
Xu Qingsong thought, why ask him what he is doing? He is just watching the fun. Does this have anything to do with him?
He shook his head and smiled helplessly: "Uncle, it's really not very convenient."
"Forget it," Qinglei's mother stopped worrying, "I'll be back for the New Year anyway."
But they picked so many vegetables that they couldn't eat them all, so they shared some with the other families present. Then they sat and chatted for a while before leaving.
After returning to the courtyard, Xu Qingsong sat in front of the computer and concentrated on his work.
Before entering the door, Gu Xuelan reminded him: "Remember to come over for dinner in the evening."
After being lectured by the two aunts last time, I started to humbly change myself and try to have a normal schedule and diet, but sometimes I really can't take care of it when I'm busy.
After Liu Wangxue explained to Gu Xuelan, Gu Xuelan also had a certain understanding of his work content. Sometimes when he was concentrating, he couldn't take care of other things, so she stopped nagging.
I just told him to pay attention to time and not neglect his health for work.
Gu Xuelan was also afraid that the children would find her annoying, so she didn't call people so often. She told Xu Qingsong that he must come for dinner no matter what.
Xu Qingsong felt that he had to pay for the food, but if he gave her the money directly, Gu Xuelan would definitely not accept it, and it would also hurt her feelings.
So he took some time to go to town and buy a lot of food, saying, "I'm already an adult, I can't come here every day for free meals. If you don't accept me, I'll be embarrassed to come again."
Gu Xuelan had no choice but to accept it. Anyway, she had nothing else to do except cross-stitching, so she made delicious food for the children in various ways.
After returning to the house, Liu Wangxue helped Gu Xuelan carry the embroidery frame under the grape trellis. She wanted to sit here and embroider today.
After moving, Liu Wangxue went to the kitchen to wash some prunes and cherry tomatoes, then made a pot of scented tea, brought a book, sat in the rocking chair, and accompanied Gu Xuelan.
