"You... never mind, I won't say anything more..."
Lu's mother was furious; the other party wasn't playing by the rules, and there was nothing she could do.
"Mom, these are local specialties I bought in Beijing. I brought them over for you and Dad to try."
Lu Shurui is not influenced by his mother and follows his own pace, which he has learned gradually, regardless of what others say.
Kuai Kuai listened to his father and grandmother's conversation, not quite understanding it, but he didn't care. He was just out for some fresh air. He'd ask his father to buy him a cream ice cream later.
The room was quiet; no one spoke.
After a while, Lu Shurui said he had to go back and would come to see his mother again in a few days.
Mother Lu didn't know what to say. She had a lot to say, but after seeing Shu Rui's attitude, she realized it was all in vain and lost the desire to speak.
Kuai Kuai was just a figurehead from beginning to end. His grandmother didn't look at him, and he didn't talk to her either. He still preferred his great-grandmother, and his third grandmother was also nice.
Children's hearts are discerning; they know who treats them well, not just from appearances, but from how they feel. Good and bad feelings are different!
The father and son walked out in silence, both deep in thought.
"Shurui, have you gone back?"
The elderly women who had been watching the commotion at the entrance hadn't left yet, and several more had gathered around.
"Yeah, I'm going back. School starts in a few days, so I need to pack up."
"That's great! After graduation, I'll have a government-affiliated position—it's a golden opportunity!"
"That's right, all the Lu family children are good at studying, and several of them have been admitted to university."
As Lu Shurui listened to the sounds of his neighbors fading into the distance, he felt a sense of relief. Every time he saw his mother, he felt depressed. When he was little, he longed to go home; now that he was grown up, he didn't want to go back.
"Dad, I want to eat creamy ice cream."
Kuai Kuai looked at his father; his expression kept changing, and no one knew what was wrong.
"Okay, we'll each have one."
"Long live Father!"
Lu Shurui ruffled his thick hair, and the two of them went off excitedly to buy cream ice cream.
