Xiao Lang took the luggage out of the car and insisted on taking Xiao's mother to the waiting room. Chen Xiaoru wanted to wait outside, but Xiao Lang was worried and insisted on taking her along.
The waiting room was almost full, and the atmosphere was bustling with a mix of accents. Xiao Lang finally found an empty seat and asked Xiao's mother to sit down, placing the luggage at her feet.
"Okay, stop seeing me off and go back quickly!" Xiao's mother looked at her son and daughter-in-law and urged them.
"Mom, you have to take good care of yourself on the train. Make sure to keep your valuables close to you and don't let anyone steal them. Don't be frugal with your food. Eat when you should and drink when you should. Your health is the most important thing. If you feel cold, take a piece of clothing from your bag and put it on so you don't catch a cold..." Chen Xiaoru held Xiao's mother's hand and gave her detailed instructions, like a little housekeeper.
Mother Xiao was amused by her and said with a smile: "I know, I know, you are even more nagging than me. But you are not alone now, you have to be careful. Tell Xiao Lang what you want to eat and let him make it for you. Don't let yourself down, and don't let my eldest grandson down."
"Okay, Mom, I understand. Don't worry." Chen Xiaoru nodded obediently.
"Okay, go back quickly and don't waste time." Xiao's mother urged again.
"Mom, we'll leave first. I hope you have a safe journey. Please call us when you get home." Xiao Lang said.
"Yes, I will. Please be careful on the road." After saying this, Xiao's mother turned and walked towards the ticket gate.
Chen Xiaoru and Xiao Lang watched Xiao's mother disappear in the crowd before turning around and leaving. Chen Xiaoru felt a little empty in her heart. Although she had not been with her mother-in-law for a long time, she could feel her mother-in-law's love for her.
Seeing that Chen Xiaoru was in a bad mood, Xiao Lang gently put his arm around her shoulders and said, "What's wrong? Are you reluctant to leave your mother?"
Chen Xiaoru shook her head: "No, I just think... it's not easy for Mom to take the train alone."
"Hey, what's so difficult about this? My mother is an old hand, she has traveled all over the country and is very experienced! Don't worry about it." Xiao Lang comforted her with a smile.
Chen Xiaoru rolled her eyes at him: "You're just a chatterbox!"
Xiao Lang chuckled and whispered in her ear, "Wife, how about we give birth to a 'football team'? Then, Mom can stay at home and take care of the kids every day. She'll be so happy!"
Chen Xiaoru burst out laughing at his words and raised her hand to hit him lightly: "You wish! Football team? Do you think I'm a sow?"
"Hehe, just a joke! But, one or two at a time, we can still try our best!" Xiao Lang continued to tease her.
Chen Xiaoru didn't bother to pay attention to him and walked straight towards the parking lot.
