Chapter 114 Meets Song Runing again.
The two sides looked at each other from a distance, both a little surprised. I thought we only met once on the plane, but I didn't expect to see him again in this relatively unpopular tourist spot.
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem so strange. Ankou is not a very developed city. At least it is worse than Pingjiang. Since the other party took that flight to Ankou and brought his family with him, it seems that he was not coming for work, so he could only be traveling to visit relatives.
And this is the only relatively famous tourist spot in Ankou City.
With this in mind, both sides had an idea in mind.
Song Runing was not very good at dealing with strangers, but her daughter was obviously the complete opposite. Faced with her daughter's enthusiasm, she felt helpless, but couldn't just turn around and leave, so she could only walk up to her.
"Hello."
Shen Qingye looked at the little girl, half bent down, and greeted her with a smile.
The little girl shrank behind her mother, and then she realized that she was shy. Her eyes were sparkling again, and she smiled and called out, "Hello, pretty sister."
Song Runing greeted him with a smile: "What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Song's mother also spoke enthusiastically: "We didn't see you when we drove here yesterday. Did you drive here by yourselves?"
Bai Xiuyu said: "No, we arrived yesterday and played in the city for a night. We just came here today and have just arrived."
"I see." Song's mother suddenly realized: "I said I didn't see anyone."
After that, she asked enthusiastically: "Since you just arrived, have you found a place to eat?"
Bai Xiuyu and Shen Linyue looked at each other and said with a smile, "We are just about to go."
Song's mother clapped her hands and said, "What a coincidence! We are also preparing to go out for dinner! Why don't we go together?"
Without waiting for Bai Xiuyu to answer, she continued, "Let me tell you, there is a fish restaurant over there that is particularly delicious. The owner's surname is Wu. It's obviously the same fish, but he can make it extra tender and smooth! We went there for a meal yesterday, and even Jingjing, who usually doesn't like to eat fish, ate a lot. She was clamoring to go there again early in the morning!"
Song Runing looked at the identical enthusiasm of the grandparents and grandchildren, and felt even more helpless: "Mom!"
This makes it seem like a salesperson trying to solicit customers.
Song's mother also realized that her words could easily be misunderstood, so she waved her hands and explained, "Oh, oh, oh, I'm not a shill for that store! I just thought that we were destined to be together, and Jingjing likes you guys, so I just said it casually. It's okay if you don't like it, the stir-fry restaurant over there tastes pretty good!"
Bai Xiuyu smiled and said it was okay, then turned around and asked the two children: "What do you say? Do you want to eat fish?"
Gao Ruiyang laughed and said, "Go and try it. I haven't had delicious fish in a long time."
Shen Qingye also nodded: "The environment and water quality here are quite suitable for aquaculture, and the fish meat should be good. It's okay to go and try it."
Bai Xiuyu agreed after hearing this, and smiled at Song's mother, "In that case, please lead the way."
Song's mother then smiled and said, "No trouble!"
She looked down at her granddaughter: "Jingjing can't wait to be with you, right, Jingjing?"
The little girl covered her face and buried herself shyly in her father's arms. The young father held his daughter in his arms with an indulgent smile.
Shen Qingye couldn't help but take a few more glances. Although he didn't know much, it was obvious that Song Runing was the one in charge of the family. The child was closer to his father... This kind of family structure was rare.
Out of respect, Shen Qingye didn't look at it any further.
The two families walked towards the lake together. On the way, Shen Qingye even called Yue Lingchuan. After the two sides met up, the other party looked at the familiar family of four and was obviously surprised. After looking at Shen Qingye, he roughly understood something and did not ask any more questions.
The tourist accommodation area is not far from the lake, about ten minutes' walk away. Because the temperature here is relatively low, and there are many shady trees planted around, it does not feel hot even at noon, but rather quite cool.
The group chatted as they walked, and they all got to know each other a little better.
It turns out that Song Runing started his own business after graduation. Because he caught the right trend and had a strong personality and skills, his company has now achieved some success. The reason for this trip was because I have been busy with work all year round, often traveling on business and working overtime, so my child is already over five years old and I don’t have much time to accompany her. Now Jingjing is almost six years old and will be able to go to primary school soon. Song's mother couldn't stand it anymore and forced Song Runing to take some time out to accompany the child to play.
In fact, Song's mother also has selfish motives. Her daughter is busy with work, and the child has always been taken care of by her father, which makes her particularly attached to her father. Whenever there is something delicious or fun, the first person she thinks of is her father. Even when she goes to sleep, her father has to coax her personally. In her eyes, Song Runing's mother is only slightly better than ordinary relatives.
After all, it is a piece of flesh that fell from her own daughter, so Song's mother still hopes that their mother-daughter relationship can be better.
Who would have thought that on the first day of the trip, Song Runing almost missed his flight because he was busy with work. How could Song's mother not be angry? This is what happened when we boarded the plane yesterday.
She looked angry at the time, but actually she was mostly showing it to Qu Peiyun. After all, it is true that her daughter does not care about the family, and it is also true that this gentle son-in-law takes on more responsibilities in terms of the family and children.
My daughter is a careless person and always thinks it’s nothing. As a mother, she had to put on a stern face and comfort her son-in-law.
Young people like Shen Qingye had little interest in these topics and just listened and moved on. Bai Xiu Yu chatted with her for a while, while Chen Lin Yue casually inquired about the business scope of Song Runing's company. After learning that the two companies had some overlapping businesses, she was a little surprised, but began to become interested and started chatting one sentence at a time. In the end, they even exchanged contact information and agreed that they might be able to collaborate in the future.
Song Zhiyi stayed in his father's arms and sighed in a mature manner: "Mom is working again."
Hearing this, Qu Peiyun said, "Mom is also working hard to make money for our family."
Jingjing pouted and whispered, "But don't we already have a lot of money? Grandma said that our money is enough to last a lifetime, why does mom still do this?"
Qu Peiyun opened his mouth and was speechless for a moment.
Jingjing looked at Song Runing who was chatting happily with Shen Linyue, and muttered: "Is mom going to leave again?"
Song Runing, who was standing beside him, paused when he heard this, turned his head to look at his daughter's lost eyes, and couldn't help but pursed his lips.
Mother Song looked at it and shook her head helplessly.
"No." Song Runing turned her head and said a few words to Shen Linyue, then looked at her daughter and said, "Mom won't leave."
Jingjing tilted her head, looking skeptical: "Really?"
Song Runing nodded seriously: "Really!"
Jingjing smiled happily: "Then it's settled, Mom is not allowed to leave halfway, she has to go home with us!"
Song Runing's expression gradually softened, and he replied in a long voice: "Okay."
…….
The group slowly walked towards Lao Wu's shop.
Although it is called a hotel, it can actually be seen that it was converted from a private house. It has only one floor and three rooms in total.
There is one kitchen, one bedroom for the owner and only one room for the actual restaurant.
Everyone walked to the door, and before they entered, they could hear the noisy voices inside.
Song Runing stepped in, looked around, and found that the lobby was already full.
At this moment, the boss came over and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, there are no seats left at the moment. Would you like to... wait a moment?"
"It's full?" Song Runing frowned and looked back at Qu Peiyun: "Didn't you tell the boss in advance?"
Qu Peiyun was stunned at first, then he slapped his head in annoyance: "I forgot!"
Song Runing's tone was not good: "Didn't I tell you last night to tell the boss in advance that we would come at noon today?"
Seeing that his wife looked unhappy, Qu Peiyun hurriedly put his daughter down and explained, "I wanted to go this morning, but Jingjing was making a fuss, and I was busy trying to comfort her, and then I had to rush to cook for her..."
His voice gradually became smaller: "Just forget it."
