Seeing Yan Bugui's expression, Sun Zhengguo didn't rush in, but decided to tease him instead.
After his younger siblings got out of the car, Sun Zhengguo pushed the car to the door and stopped, then said...
"Uncle, the people need help right now. Please help lift the car out of the car."
Yan Bugui stared wide-eyed at Sun Zhengguo in disbelief, thinking to himself.
"Are you kidding me? You're driving an empty cart and you need people to carry it. Besides, aren't there two other people next to you?"
However, in a flash, something else came to his mind.
"Jiecheng, go help your brother Zhengguo lift the car. Don't you have any common sense?"
Yan Jiecheng, feeling unjustly attacked, reluctantly stood up and helped Sun Zhengguo lift the car over the threshold.
"Brother Jiecheng, thank you! The Third Uncle's family has such a good tradition! They think about what the people think and are anxious about what the people are anxious about."
Yan Bugui knew that this was going to happen, but he was prepared.
"Don't mention it, Zhengguo. If you're really embarrassed, let's go fishing together next time. Just give me some extra bait."
Well! They really aren't willing to suffer any loss, that's the right way to do it.
Your grandpa is still the same grandpa!
"Alright! Uncle San, you'll have to split the fish you caught with me."
After saying that, without waiting for Yan Bugui's reaction, Sun Zhengguo pushed the cart and headed home.
It wasn't until Sun Zhengguo left that Yan Bugui realized what was happening and began to preach to Yan Jiecheng, who was standing to the side.
"Look, learn from them. They put monkey hair on and they become monkeys. They're so cunning, they can't gain any advantage."
"What's so great about Sun Zhengguo? He just got into university! How am I any worse than him?"
Yan Jiecheng said with a sullen face, unconvinced.
Yan Jiecheng's words shocked Yan Bugui to the core. How are you inferior to him?
How can you even compare them? You have absolutely no self-awareness!
This isn't even the same height, it's worlds apart!
My foolish son didn't even think before he said those words.
Yan Bugui was too lazy to talk to him anymore; it was like talking to a brick wall.
"He's utterly hopeless, like mud that can't be plastered on a wall, or rotten wood that can't be carved!"
Yan Bugui threw down a sentence, picked up a stool, and walked home.
Now he was starting to envy Liu Lao Er; in this situation, simply showing off his belt was the most effective method.
Yan Jiecheng was the only one left at the door, silently collecting the chess pieces. He couldn't understand what had gotten into his father today.
As evening fell, smoke rose from the chimneys of the courtyard house, and the workers began to leave work one after another. Yan Bugui came out again, standing guard at the gate and greeting each of them.
"Oh! Dajiang and his wife are back from get off work."
"Yes! His third uncle is busy!"
Sun Dajiang said hello and headed home, since Yan Bugui still had things to do at the station and he couldn't delay his normal work.
When they got home, the siblings had already prepared dinner. When they saw their parents return, they started putting the dishes and steamed buns on the table.
Seeing this, Mom and Dad washed their hands, sat down, and started eating.
After finishing their meal, Lin Wencui started washing the dishes, while Sun Zhenghong helped her. The mother and daughter then started chatting.
"Honey, where did you go to play at home today?"
"Mom, the three of us went to Houhai Park today and even went boating! But my older brother is afraid of the heat, so he didn't get on the boat. The rest of us went on the boat."
"How many of you are there? Who else is with you?"
Sun Zhenghong suddenly realized she had messed up. Her second brother had repeatedly told her not to tell their parents, but now she had let it slip.
"Mom, you misheard me. I meant that I boarded the ship with my second brother."
Sun Zhenghong's explanation only made things worse; it completely exposed his deception.
"Sun Zhenghong, I'm giving you another chance. I hope you can seize it and think it through before you speak."
Faced with her mother's sharp gaze, Sun Zhenghong decisively chose to betray her mother, recounting everything that had happened that afternoon, as well as some other things she knew.
"Just as I expected, I should have guessed it sooner."
After listening to her daughter's story, Lin Wencui had a question that was answered.
At the last graduation banquet, my eldest son was alright; he only invited Zheng Wenhua, whom they all knew.
But her youngest son invited a female classmate, and she immediately sensed something was off.
However, she was too busy that day and didn't ask. Combining this with what happened today, Lin Wencui was basically certain that her youngest son had grown up and was actually dating.
Logically speaking, people generally get married quite early these days; some people in rural areas are already married at 16, but her son is still in school!
If two young people accidentally spark a romance, things could get really funny.
Lin Wencui felt that she should intervene in this matter to prevent any unpleasant incidents from occurring.
Thinking of this, Lin Wencui stopped doing her work, handed it over to Sun Zhenghong, and went to the main room.
"Jung-guk, go out and play for a while. Your dad and I need to talk to your brother about something."
Upon hearing his mother's words, Sun Zhengguo quickly headed outside. From the way his mother acted, he knew that his younger brother had been exposed and that Sun Zhenghong was the one who had betrayed the organization.
Seeing Sun Zhengguo leave, Lin Wencui went straight to the point without any preamble.
"Tell me! What's going on with Yu Li?"
Sun Zheng'an was dumbfounded. His sister had completely sold him out; she even knew his name.
Sun Zheng'an's brain started working at lightning speed, trying to figure out how to fool him.
"Stop thinking about it. You should know that I know more than enough. Now it's up to you to confess."
"Mom, we're just friends, it's not what you think."
As he said this, Sun Zheng'an seemed a little guilty and even touched his ear.
"Just friends? You're my son, and you can't even change the way you lie. You need to know that you're still a student. Once you graduate, you can date however you want, and no one will care."
"Mom, that's what I was planning too. We're just going to have fun, we're not doing anything else, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people going."
Through their conversation, Sun Dajiang finally understood: his son had a girlfriend, truly following in the footsteps of the Sun family. It was the same when he was in school, and now his son was doing the same thing.
Like father, like son!
However, Sun Dajiang dared not say anything, lest the fire spread to him and he suffer a greater loss.
"Okay, can you guarantee that the two of you will not be allowed to meet alone before graduation?"
Lin Wencui was also in a dilemma. She couldn't push her son too hard, as that would only backfire, so she lowered her expectations.
Upon hearing this, Sun Zheng'an immediately perked up. After all, she was his own mother. She was being lenient, only saying that they couldn't meet alone, which meant that two or more people were fine!
"Mom, I promise the instructor that I will never meet with Yu Li alone before graduation. If necessary, I will definitely report to you."
"Remember what you said. If Mom finds out that you've done something to wrong someone, don't blame her for turning against you."
Lin Wencui spoke very seriously; this was her bottom line. She didn't want to ruin her child's future because of these messy things.
Seeing his mother's serious expression, Sun Zheng'an nodded solemnly.
Once Sun Dajiang saw that the mother and son had reached an agreement, he started gossiping, using the pretext of doing what was best for the child to thoroughly investigate Yu Li's situation.
After hearing his son's description, Sun Dajiang couldn't help but express his admiration.
Is dating this complicated these days?
It started in elementary school.
