When we returned to the Shen family compound from the small town, it was already afternoon.
Ximing was very happy because she and Shen Cheng had sneaked away for the whole afternoon. Shen Cheng was also very happy because he had avoided being used as a punching bag by his grandfather for the whole afternoon.
As a result, in front of a big door, Shen Yu happened to be standing there holding a stick with a stern face. It was obvious from his posture that he was waiting for Shen Cheng.
Shen Cheng shuddered subconsciously, knowing that he could not escape. He quickly organized his thoughts in his mind, thinking about how to deal with the old man.
"Where did the whole morning go?"
Seeing Shen Cheng, Shen Yu spoke lightly.
Here comes the old man’s fatal question!
Chen Cheng knew that he had secretly gone to the town to stroll around without telling the old man, breaking his appointment, which made the old man very unhappy.
It can be imagined that when I am used as a punching bag by the old man again, he will definitely not go easy on me.
I have to find a reason to make the beating less severe.
Seeing Shen Cheng's predicament, Xi Ming stepped forward again and hugged Shen Cheng's arm, resting her head on Shen Cheng's shoulder, and called out sweetly to Shen Yu: "Grandpa."
"Why!"
When he heard the word "grandfather", Shen Yu's stern old face melted immediately and revealed a kind smile.
“I dragged Shen Cheng to visit the town, because although I have been to Shen Cheng’s hometown once, I have never had the opportunity to visit the town properly.”
Xi Ming smiled and said, "The atmosphere in this town is really great. Everyone is so kind. I want to live here forever."
"Hahaha!"
Shen Yu laughed out loud upon hearing this, and his mood immediately improved a lot: "You can come anytime you want in the future, let Xiao Cheng take you there, and you can stay here for a few days! Okay, don't get sunburned outside, come inside!"
The grandson is his own sandbag and he can beat him as he pleases, but the same cannot be said for his granddaughter-in-law. Moreover, no matter how Shen Yu looks at this granddaughter-in-law, he is satisfied, so he still has to give her some face.
After the incident was revealed, Xi Ming secretly winked at Chen Cheng with her right eye, and Chen Cheng responded with a look of gratitude.
When I walked into the house, the girls had already started preparing dinner in the kitchen, and all kinds of aromas were wafting through the air.
Shen Wei was still sitting on the sofa drinking tea, as if he hadn't moved his butt on the sofa all day.
As soon as Xi Ming entered the house, she went to the kitchen to help. With nothing to do, Shen Cheng held Mu Bing and sat opposite Shen Wei to rest, staring at Shen Wei.
“…”
The atmosphere was silent for a moment. Seeing that Shen Cheng had nothing to do, Shen Wei pushed his glasses on his face and said, "Xiao Cheng, go water the flowers in the garden."
"Uh, okay."
Chen Cheng was stunned for a moment and subconsciously wanted to refuse. After all, he hadn't even sat down yet.
But on second thought, his father's status in this family was already miserable enough, and as his own son, he should at least obey his father, so Shen Cheng agreed.
Leaving Mu Bing behind, Chen Cheng ran to water the flowers alone, leaving Mu Bing and Shen Wei staring at each other.
After taking a sip of tea, Wei Shen thought for a moment, placed a teacup in front of Mu Bing, and poured a cup of tea for her.
"Be careful of the heat."
After saying this with a smile, Shen Wei continued to drink his tea.
Looking at the steaming teacup in front of him, Mu Bing silently picked it up and brought it to his mouth.
"Dong~Dong~"
After two sips, the teacup was empty. Mu Bing placed the cup on the coffee table with no expression on her face.
However, Mu Bing cast his gaze on the teapot, as if he was a little...unsatisfied?
Captain Shen: “…”
Isn’t this little girl afraid of the heat?
Picking up the teapot, Shen Wei poured another cup of hot tea for Mu Bing and instructed: "Drink slowly, don't be in a hurry."
"Thank you, Dad."
Mu Bing thanked him softly and picked up the teacup.
"Dong~Dong~"
Captain Shen: “…”
Refill!
"Dong~Dong~"
Continue!
"Dong~Dong~"
On Shen Cheng's side, the flowers have already been watered.
The flowers in the Shen family garden are not special varieties, they are just wild flowers mixed in with the weeds. However, the vitality of this kind of flowers is strong enough, and they bloom very brightly no matter what the weather is.
Shen Cheng occasionally saw Shen Wei digging a hole in this place. At first, he just thought that Shen Wei was loosening the soil for the flowers, but now, Shen Cheng vaguely saw something.
My dad dug a hole in this place... He was actually hiding some of his money, right? It had to be!
When I was a child, my father scared me by saying that there were giant earthworms in the garden that would eat people, and told me to stay away from that area. He was probably afraid that I would dig out his secret money!
This also left an indelible shadow on the earthworms in the childhood Shen Cheng for a long time...
Thinking of this, Shen Cheng couldn't help but praise his own wit.
After all, my father doesn't like planting flowers very much. It would be better to plant a few more tea trees instead of planting flowers in this place. Now it seems that it is mostly to cover up the truth.
While thinking about random things, Shen Cheng finished watering the flowers and hurried back to the house to continue resting.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Mu Bing and Shen Wei looking at each other. Neither of them spoke and there was silence.
Chen Cheng didn't understand what was going on, so he walked forward, picked up Mu Bing, and continued to play badly.
Shen Wei silently picked up the empty teapot, ready to get another pot of tea and then go to another place to drink tea.
A pot of freshly boiled tea was drunk up by this cold little fellow in a blink of an eye, which made Shen Wei feel a little painful.
Of course, it wasn't his own tea that Shen Wei felt bad about. After all, it was for his little girl to drink, so it was okay for someone to pack it up and take it away.
But... this little girl doesn't know how to taste it at all! She's not even afraid of the heat, she just drinks tons of it, making Shen Wei suspect that she can't even taste the tea. How is this different from wasting it?
After a short break, dinner began and everyone sat in their seats. Shen Cheng was still holding Mu Bing, waiting for Shen Yu to put down his chopsticks.
As Shen Yu took the first bite of the dish, the Shen family's sumptuous dinner officially began.
Mu Bing is different from Meng Nian, who is not picky about food. Mu Bing likes to eat hotter or spicy food, that is, food with more soup or more spicy food. Shen Cheng, who feeds Mu Bing, specifically takes pictures of these foods.
After giving Mu Bing a few bites of food, Shen Cheng noticed that Mu Bing didn't seem to have much appetite, so he couldn't help but ask, "Mu Bing, is your dinner not to your liking?"
"without."
Mu Bing shook her head and said calmly, "Just now, I drank too much tea."
Shen Cheng: “…”
No wonder my father, who had been sitting on the sofa all day, stayed with Mu Bing for a while and then ran away in shame with the teapot in his arms.
Because Mu Bing couldn't eat much, Shen Cheng was still a little unsatisfied after feeding Mu Bing, and finally locked his eyes on Ling Xue.
Lingxue glanced at the dishes across the table, then looked at Chen Cheng, no longer trying to hide it, and said bluntly: "Give it to me."
Despite saying so, Lingxue's cheeks were still a little red.
