Chapter 300 Mother Lu is happy to see her grandson

Mother Lu was standing outside the main entrance of the steel factory dormitory building, looking at the road ahead.

From time to time, workers passed by the door and greeted her.

Aunt Zhou, who lived opposite the old Lu family, asked a question.

Mother Lu smiled and said, "Weiguo and his wife and children are coming back today, I will go to meet them."

Aunt Zhou saw that the smile on her face never stopped, and couldn't help but make a joke.

The youngest son of the old Lu family is promising, and the youngest daughter-in-law is even more amazing. They can only come back once every two years, no wonder they are worried about him.

"Okay, I'll go to work first, and bring your grandson to visit me when you have time."

Mother Lu agreed with a smile. Thinking of her grandson, Mother Lu's heart was burning. She hadn't seen her grandson for half a year since the last birthday banquet.

It has been a week and a half now, I wonder if Shen Shen still remembers her.

Thinking of this, Mother Lu felt a little annoyed. If she had known earlier, she would have followed him to the station.

But when she thought about the fact that the children probably had not had time to eat breakfast so early in the morning, there would be no one to cook if she did not stay.

Before she could think about it any more, the sound of a tractor came over.

Mother Lu slapped her thigh and ran briskly to the entrance of the alley. Her vigorous steps were comparable to those of young people.

Uncle Mao saw Mother Lu from a distance and laughed loudly.

Look how anxious this little old lady is.

Shi Tingyu waved to Mother Lu, "Mom!"

"Hey!" Mother Lu moved aside and let the tractor stop at the entrance of the alley.

Lu Weiguo got off the car first and carried Shi Tingyu down. He turned around and raised his hand to hold his son, but was glared at by Lu's father, "You are not needed here. You carry the things down. I am here in Shenshen."

Lu Weiguo smiled helplessly, raised his legs to take down the luggage and gifts for his family.

When he got off, both his hands were full.

In front, Lu's mother was holding her daughter-in-law, and Lu's father was holding his grandson. They had already walked a long way.

Lu Weiguo: ...

It's rare to see Lu Weiguo looking so embarrassed. Uncle Mao laughed and joked, "You are worthless now that you have a daughter-in-law and grandson."

After Lu Weiguo chatted with Uncle Mao for a few words, he quickly caught up with his parents and wife and children in front.

Mother Lu glanced at him and said, "You are so old, but you are not as agile as us old couple."

The group walked to the gate of the dormitory building of the steel factory, and they were greeted by neighbors going to work one by one.

Lu Weiguo was the first to greet them.

Shi Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief and followed Lu Weiguo to call people.

Two years ago, she came here and returned to the family compound after staying for a few days. She didn't remember many people.

She was most afraid of visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year, but fortunately, with Lu Weiguo around, she felt much less pressure.

Amidst the greetings and regards, Shi Tingyu and his family finally arrived home.

Mother Lu's eyes seemed to be fixed on the child in Father Lu's arms.

Father Lu opened his coat, revealing a tender and fair baby.

Mother Lu held the baby in her arms, kissing him for a while. Father

Lu watched, silently served the breakfast on the stove, and called them to come over to eat.

Mother Lu cooked millet and red date porridge for breakfast, paired with salted duck eggs, egg pancakes and small pickled vegetables.

Shi Tingyu and the others were indeed hungry, and they didn't care about Shen Shen anymore. They had to eat first. Shen Shen was the old couple's favorite now, so they shouldn't compete with them.

Father Lu then pushed out a stroller for the child from the room.

The stroller should be made entirely by hand, in natural wood color, polished to have no wood thorns, and some parts were even wrapped in cotton cloth. It looked no worse than the small bamboo stroller in the family yard.

Mother Lu put the child in the stroller and prepared to feed Shen Shen with a bowl.

After seeing this, Lu Weiguo said, "Mom, Shen Shen can already eat by himself. You don't need to feed him. Give him the small spoon and he will eat by himself."

Mother Lu gave the spoon to Shen Shen.

Shen Shen took the spoon, scooped a spoonful of millet porridge steadily, and blew it. However, he didn't control the strength of the blowing well, and half of the spoonful of porridge was blown away by him.

Looking at the half spoonful of porridge left, Shen Shen was silent for a while before putting the porridge into his mouth.

The millet porridge had rice oil and a faint sweet fragrance of red dates. Shen Shen liked the taste very much.

When he blew the second spoonful, Shen Shen blew much more lightly. This time only a little bit fell out. After a few times, Shen Shen had experience and never blew it away again.

Mother Lu was very flattering, "Our Shen Shen is awesome!"

Shen Shen was overjoyed by the compliment.

Shi Tingyu looked at Father Lu who was anxious to interact with his grandson and started a conversation, "Shen Shen's baby stroller is really well made, where did you buy it?"

Father Lu smiled and said proudly, "I made it."

Shi Tingyu was surprised and praised, "No wonder it is so finely polished, I was wondering, I haven't seen such a well-made baby stroller in Jinling, after all, the father loves his child."

Father Lu was so flattered that he smiled and even his fierce look softened.

Lu Weiguo glanced at Shi Tingyu. Who said his daughter-in-law was not good at socializing? Seeing what he said, it hit the old man's sore spot.

After dinner, Lu's mother prepared some food for Li Jian, and then cleared the dishes.

Lu's father went to work in the factory.

Seeing that Lu's mother had not gone to the factory at this time, Lu Weiguo asked, "Mom, aren't you going to the factory today?"

Lu's mother said, "It's the 28th of the lunar month, so I just asked for leave."

Lu Weiguo thought about his mother's age first, and said, "Mom, you will be 55 after the Chinese New Year. Isn't it time to retire this year?"

When talking about this, Lu's mother's face was full of joy.

"Of course not. People my age retire at 50. I am a female cadre at my age, so I have postponed my retirement for five years. I can retire in May this year, which is only a few months away."

Mr. Lu is four years older than Ms. Lu. He is 59 this year and will retire in 1980, so there is still more than a year left.

"Now that you are retired, you can relax a little." Lu Weiguo said.

Mother Lu waved her hand and said, "How can we be idle? Isn't Xiaoyu very busy? If you can't come, tell me, and I will take care of your children."

Shi Tingyu smiled and said, "Okay, if you can't come, I will definitely ask mom to help me."

Mother Lu's eyes were full of smiles after hearing this.

On weekdays, because the eldest family is around, she takes good care of them. Now that the boy of the eldest family is twelve years old after the Chinese New Year, she is naturally not needed. She can also help the younger son.

Lu Weiguo looked at the interaction between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, lowered his eyes and smiled.

He knew that his mother was a person who couldn't sit still.

Or it can be said that the older generation can't stop the work in their hands.

Just look at his grandparents, they are old but still busy all day.

Fearing that her youngest son and his family would not sleep well on the train, Lu's mother let them go to the house to catch up on sleep after dinner.

But they were not sleepy at all, and they slept almost all the way on the train.

Finally, they went to buy New Year's goods.

Lu's mother pushed Shen Shen, followed by her son, daughter-in-law and Li Jian. If she hadn't been pushing a cart, she would have had to stand straight when she went out.
