Since Mr. Su had said so, Su Qiaoqiao nodded somewhat embarrassedly: "Auntie, since my father is willing, then I have nothing to say. It's just that I hope you will take good care of the child!"
Mr. Su replied, "Your aunt has a lot on her plate, so she doesn't have time to take care of our family. We'll leave the two children to their father. Anyway, there's not much going on at the school, and I have nothing else to do."
Liang Shuyan had already made plans in her mind. Chunyan could sometimes help take care of the children, and there were many other people in the family who could take care of them. Taking care of the two children was not a problem. When they were in school, they would go to the school, and after school, it was just a matter of having a meal!
"It's alright. We'll eat at our house, so Mr. Su doesn't need to cook. It's very simple; it just means we'll cook for a few more people."
Mentioning Manager Xiao, Mr. Su had something to say: "But this Manager Xiao originally worked at the martial arts school, and I heard he's quite skilled. What if something happens to him?"
Upon hearing this, Su Qiaoqiao immediately said, "Father, don't worry about this. We're just going out to do some work; nothing like Sang Chi knocking the drum will happen. What are you thinking?"
Liang Shuyan then explained, “Mr. Su, you are also a gentleman. Our Qiaoqiao is smart and sensible. The reason I arranged for Qiaoqiao to go to Beijing is mainly because Qiaoqiao is capable of handling sales independently, and Manager Xiao is reliable and capable. Besides, Qiaoqiao is getting old, and you can't keep her by your side forever!”
After listening to Liang Shuyan's explanation, Mr. Su nodded and said, "Okay, now that you say so, I'm relieved. When shall we get up?"
"Let's get ready tonight, and we'll leave first thing tomorrow morning!"
After arranging everything, Liang Shuyan returned home. When Grandma Jin learned that Sanwang was in charge of the restaurant, she immediately took charge, saying, "Okay, with my grandson's help, there's nothing we can't handle!"
Ruyan pouted and said unhappily, "Oh dear, Grandma is so biased. What about me? I work at the restaurant just the same way, so why doesn't Grandma help me?"
Grandma Jin then poked Ruyan's forehead and said, "You silly girl, what are you saying? You and Sanwang are about to get married, why are you still distinguishing between you and me? No matter who Grandma sides with, isn't it all the same?"
Ruyan blushed and remained silent.
Niu Niu came back, put her schoolbag aside, and lay down on the table to write, but her eyes kept glancing at Da Shan and Zhao Heng in the yard.
"Niu Niu, why are you staring at me like that while you're writing?"
Niu Niu said "oh" but didn't say anything. Liang Shuyan then went into the old lady's room and whispered, "Mother, you can't spoil Sanwang anymore. Sanwang has no sense of responsibility at all. What can we expect him to accomplish in the future?"
Grandma Jin held Liang Shuyan's hand and said, "You shouldn't be too harsh on the children. Sometimes, it's most important to let them choose what they like. If you don't have time at the restaurant, just leave it to this old woman. I'll find a way to take good care of the business."
"Okay, Mother, are you still preparing for the clinic?"
Grandma Jin nodded: "This clinic is already very familiar with the place, there's nothing to prepare. I wonder when the road in our village will be repaired, and when shops will be built in the village?"
Building shops in the village is possible, but we need to discuss this with Li Zheng to see if everyone is willing to invest. If each family can invest a little, things won't be too difficult.
"Mother, don't worry. I will discuss this matter with Lizheng as appropriate, but we may need to raise funds, otherwise, no family can come up with so much money."
Financing?
Grandma Jin smiled and said, "Yes, it's financing. I've become so slow-witted since I came here. I really think of myself as an old lady. I can't remember this term for a while. My daughter is so thoughtful!"
Liang Shuyan turned around and looked around. Seeing that no one was around, she said with relief, "Mother, you have to be careful what you say. What if someone hears us? What will we do then?"
Grandma Jin coughed slightly: "However, I still feel that my daughter is more affectionate. My daughter-in-law always has ulterior motives!"
"Mother, then tell me, has my daughter-in-law been unfaithful?"
Grandma Jin burst into laughter: "No, that's true. It seems that daughters and daughters-in-law are the same. I'll remember that. From now on, you'll be my good daughter-in-law!"
Outside the courtyard, Zhang's voice called out: "Mother, Grandma, dinner's ready! Shall we eat in the courtyard or inside?"
The weather wasn't too cold yet. Liang Shuyan lifted the curtain, felt the air outside, and then said, "Let's eat in the courtyard then. The air isn't too cold yet."
Zhang steamed rice, made braised pork, sliced chicken, and served it with dipping sauce, a plate of greens, and a pickled radish.
Grandma Jin sat down, glanced at Old Lady Liu, and said, "Eat quickly and try the children's cooking!"
Zhang stepped forward and said modestly, "This is nothing special; my mother's cooking is much better!"
Holding her child, Liu sat to one side, smiling broadly, and said, "That's right, it's been a while since I've had my mother's cooking!"
Everyone was present except for Erniu. When Liang Shuyan heard everyone say this, she coughed and said, "Don't forget, our family's secret chef is your grandma!"
Dashan put down his chopsticks, glanced at Grandma Jin, and said, "But, Mom, my grandma is already getting old. Although she can cook, it's good enough if she doesn't get sick. How can we let her cook for us? As long as she's healthy, that's all that matters!"
Sanwang immediately added, "That's right. Grandma is getting old, so we should all take care of her. How can we let her cook for us?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Shuyan said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. If you want to eat my cooking, then during the Mid-Autumn Festival, you should all prepare the ingredients, and I will cook a beautiful meal for you so that everyone can have a good time!"
Zhao Heng said, "Auntie, the new house is finished. When can we move in? My father said that many people will come to congratulate you and you will receive many gifts from distinguished guests."
