Chapter 356: Received a Package from the Big Uncle
The days when Qin Ping married into the Lu family were the most comfortable days. So deep down, she was a little jealous of Shi Tingyu who took away some of her benefits.
She knew that her behavior was sometimes wrong, and she was very conflicted, but she couldn't control herself.
Fortunately, her husband and son didn't hate her because of this.
Lu Jianguo said that if she didn't change, she wouldn't have to intervene in the future gifts.
This might not be a big deal for others, but it wasn't for Qin Ping.
She valued money but not as much as her status in the Lu family.
She longed for a family that was wholeheartedly devoted to her. If she didn't have to prepare for the future things, in her opinion, it was Lu Jianguo's lack of trust in her.
This was more terrible than anything else.
She had a secret buried in her heart, and she had never told it.
In fact, when she first married into the Lu family, she was indeed a little afraid of her father-in-law, but she gradually adapted to it over time. Although she was still a little afraid, it was more due to a fear of the patriarch.
Just like when she was in her mother's house, she was afraid of her father.
The reason why she always acted so afraid of him was that she wanted to move out as soon as possible.
She wanted to have a place that belonged to her completely and where she could be the master of the house.
After the family split up, she did achieve it and stopped pretending. However, her natural fear of the patriarch made her unconsciously a little timid every time she saw Lu's father.
Didn't she want to please the old man with her sweet mouth like Shi Tingyu?
But she had been like this since she was a child, and she couldn't do the same thing as Shi Tingyu.
Shi Tingyu must be very favored at home. This can be seen from the fact that she was able to marry her younger brother-in-law safely when her parents were demoted. It must have been the result of many plans by her parents. After all, her younger brother-in-law was the battalion commander at that time.
If her younger brother-in-law had lowered his standards for the person he was looking for, he would have had a wife long ago.
However, she had to admire her younger brother-in-law's good luck. His character of preferring to have nothing rather than to have something bad really made him wait for a perfect woman like Shi Tingyu.
Yes, a perfect woman, this is Qin Ping's definition of Shi Tingyu.
Whether it is her background, family, appearance, or talent, Shi Tingyu is perfect in every way.
But the more this happened, the more afraid she became, so in the end she would unconsciously do some things that even she herself felt were wrong and guilty.
Fortunately, they separated, and Lu Weiguo and his wife were not around, so her life was much better.
On the 29th day of the lunar month, Shi Tingyu received a package from Eastern Province.
She opened it and saw that it was a set of clothes for a child.
She looked carefully and found a note in the package.
It was written by Lu Zhen.
- I hope my aunt and uncle are well. This set of clothes is a New Year gift that my father and I picked for my brother. I hope he likes it. When he comes back next year, I will take him out to play. I miss your nephew, Lu Zhen.
Shi Tingyu was curious. Why would they send something to Shen Shen at this time?
At this time, Lu Weiguo also walked in from outside. Seeing the unpacked package on the floor of the main hall and the clothes in his wife's hands, he couldn't help asking, "Who sent the clothes?"
Shi Tingyu handed the letter written by Xiao Zhen to Lu Weiguo, "These clothes were sent by Xiao Zhen and big brother."
Lu Weiguo was a little surprised. Seeing what Lu Zhen said in the letter, the clothes were the New Year gifts chosen by Xiao Zhen and his father for Shen Shen, he had a rough guess in his mind.
Shi Tingyu knew from his expression that he must have found something wrong.
"What do you mean they sent things at this time?"
Lu Weiguo picked up the clothes and compared them to Shen Shen, his tone full of lightness.
"This dress looks like it's a good size."
He put the clothes back in place, "I'll wash the clothes after dinner, and Shen Shen will be able to wear them then."
Shi Tingyu didn't urge him, just watched him put the clothes in the basin.
After returning to the house, Lu Weiguo took Shi Tingyu's hand and said, "When Shen Shen celebrated her birthday, I didn't see my elder brother and sister-in-law's things. I felt a little unhappy, but after all, we live so far away, so I just pretended that it never happened. Now it seems that things are not what I thought."
Shi Tingyu felt that her man was thinking the same thing as her.
"You also think that Shen Shen didn't receive the gift at first, and it was the eldest sister-in-law's fault?"
"I didn't think about it that way before, but now that I see the clothes sent by eldest brother and Xiao Zhen, I guess it's almost certain."
Although it's a bit untrue to say so, his eldest brother is indeed not a man who can choose clothes for children. Usually, it's the eldest sister-in-law who helps to buy such things. This time, his eldest brother did it himself for the first time. Something must have happened.
In addition, his eldest brother's personality is not the kind of person who will make mistakes in such matters. It seems that his eldest sister-in-law must have done something fishy.
Shi Tingyu saw Lu Weiguo's rather emotional expression, and smiled and said: "I think the material and workmanship of this dress are very good, I think it cost a lot of money."
Lu Weiguo said: "Keep it, I guess he thought that he didn't give Shen Shen anything on her birthday before, so he wanted to make up for
it now." Shi Tingyu nodded and said nothing more.
But seeing that Lu Weiguo was in a good mood, he knew that he must be happy to know that his elder brother was still the same.
The next day, on the morning of New Year's Eve, Shi Tingyu drove to the station to pick up Shi Muhan who was on vacation.
As soon as Shi Muhan got in the car, he asked, "Where is my nephew
?" Shi Tingyu was annoyed by his enthusiasm, "Your nephew is all in your eyes and heart. Do I, your sister, have such a low sense of existence?"
Shi Muhan touched her head, "How can that be? I just saw that you are doing well."
After hearing this, Shi Tingyu was happy first, "If you want to see your nephew, let's go now. I'll make you delicious food at noon."
Shi Muhan said, "Brother is back, so why do you need to do anything?"
Shi Tingyu couldn't help but think of what happened when she was pregnant. He really didn't let her do anything.
The two chatted all the way in the car and unknowingly arrived at the family compound.
As for why he didn't go back to the family quarters of the research institute, it was naturally because no one was in the family quarters.
His parents were still fighting on the front line of the research team
on New Year's Eve. Children grow up with the wind. The first time Shi Muchan saw Shen Shen was when he was a few months old. He passed by here after completing his mission and stayed for two days in a hurry. Seeing Shen Shen now, he always felt that he had missed a lot.
Shen Shen can now walk and run by himself, and has long said goodbye to the bamboo cart.
Seeing a man in a green military uniform suddenly appear in the house, his eyes were full of curiosity.
"Uncle?"
Shi Muchan threw away his backpack and hugged Shen Shen and turned around twice.
Shen Shen grew up in the compound. On weekdays, he saw the most people in military uniforms. He had a natural liking for green military uniforms, so he was not afraid at all, but laughed excitedly.
