271 Can I go with my uncle to pick up grandma~~
Su Taotao's discussion lasted until the afternoon. They had lunch in the government cafeteria. The food there was not bad, and the auntie didn't shake the spoon when serving the food.
Su Taotao thought that the food for the factory workers should be of this standard in the future. Only when they are full can they have the strength to work.
She first went to the supply and marketing cooperative to replenish the things that needed to be replenished at home, and then went to pick up the children from Mr. Tang.
When Su Taotao arrived, it was already past four in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Chenchen also learned painting from Mr. Tang. He just finished two classes and it was time for the class to end.
Old Wu and Fu Yuanhang were washing fruits.
Chenchen played chess with Mr. Tang.
Chenchen grabbed the chess piece that was almost as big as his palm and placed it on the chessboard:
"Grandpa Party~~You lose if I leave this way~~"
Old Tang said "Huh", and then laughed: "Lost, lost, Grandpa admits defeat, oh my, I still can't beat Chenchen, Chenchen, why are you so good?"
Chenchen said very proudly: "My dad taught me~~"
Old Tang laughed again: "Okay, okay, I'll find a chance to play a game with your dad and see how good he is."
Chenchen: "My dad is the most annoying dad~~Grandpa Party~~You have to beat me first~~ before you can beat my dad~~I can't beat my dad~~"
Father plays a very important role in a boy's growth process.
Especially an excellent father like Fu Zhengtu.
He is the child's pride, role model, and the person the child wants to surpass.
"Have you finished playing chess?" Su Taotao nodded to Mr. Tang.
"Mom~~" Chenchen jumped off the stool and ran towards Su Taotao with his short legs.
Su Taotao picked up the child and touched his head: "Did you have fun today?"
Chenchen nodded: "Happy~~"
Old Wu came in with the freshly washed grapes, and Fu Yuanhang followed him with two melons: "Sister-in-law."
"Hang, have you finished your lessons today?"
Fu Yuanhang nodded: "I have."
Old Tang smiled and pointed to a chair for Su Taotao: "If you are not in a hurry to leave, eat some fruit first."
Su Taotao hugged Chenchen and sat down: "Then I'm welcome."
Su Taotao chatted with Old Tang for a while, asked about Fu Yuanhang's progress, and when she saw that it was almost time, she stood up and prepared to leave.
Old Tang and Old Wu still reluctantly sent them to the door.
"By the way, I just went to the food station. Since it's convenient to drive there, I brought some rice and coarse grains back for you. Ah Hang, please move these two bags in."
"Okay." Without waiting for Mr. Tang to say anything, Fu Yuanhang walked into the yard with a bag in each hand and headed for the kitchen.
Mr. Tang secretly sighed. Su Taotao was thinking of ways to subsidize them.
She really was the type who didn't want to take advantage of anyone.
Mr. Tang made a gesture to Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu took out a stack of food coupons from his arms and handed them to Su Taotao.
"I won't give you the money. You take the food coupons. The rations are rationed. What will you eat if you give them to me?" Mr. Tang said.
Su Taotao said, "Fu Zhengtu, who eats the most in the family, is on a business trip. We have been eating in the cafeteria more recently, and we haven't used much of the food in our ration book. I have the ration coupons, which will just come in handy when we eat in the cafeteria."
Old Tang was not polite to Su Taotao. She was not an ignorant person, and naturally would not let her two children go hungry.
"Go back, Xiao Su. Being polite to us is just being polite. Don't be like this next time. Although Old Wu looks old, he is actually not very old. He can still carry two bags of rice to the food station."
Su Taotao smiled and said, "I'm not being polite. I just do it for the convenience. If I don't drive, I can't carry them."
Old Tang didn't say anything else: "Go back and come back on the weekend."
Fu Yuanhang nodded and bent slightly: "Okay, goodbye, Grandpa Tang and Grandpa Wu."
Chen Chen lay on his mother's shoulder and said with a smile: "Grandpa Dang~Grandpa Fu~Goodbye~"
The two elders waved to him: "Goodbye."
Although they would see each other again in two days, they were still reluctant to leave.
Old Tang looked at their backs and said with emotion:
"Old Wu, we did good things when we were young, and it is our blessing to meet these two children and this family when we are old."
Old Wu kept nodding his head "wuwuwuwuwuwu", and couldn't agree more.
...
Su Taotao bought vegetables today and planned to cook a good meal for the children.
"Today we have braised duck and taro rice, which is Xiaohang's favorite."
Fu Yuanhang is still a good helper to Su Taotao. He washes vegetables, cuts vegetables, peels garlic, slices ginger, washes pots, and lights fires... He has done these assistant jobs very well.
Fu Yuanhang smiled and said, "Everything my sister-in-law cooks is delicious."
The child chased Baibai for a circle and suddenly said, "
Mom, why isn't my favorite dish? It's because Chenchen didn't help~with the housework~~"
Su Taotao was surprised and said, "Huh, doesn't it mean that no matter what mommy cooks, Chenchen likes to eat it?"
Chenchen blinked, tilted his head and puffed up his cheeks, saying, "Yes~~Okay~~I like braised duck rice the most today~~"
Su Taotao touched his head, "What a good boy, go and play, and help mommy with housework when you go to elementary school."
"Yeah~~" Chenchen said and went to chase Baibai to play again.
"Has Baibai grown a lot?" When Baibai was first brought home, he was a little puppy not much bigger than a fist.
After a few months, especially after learning "skills" from Ping An in the factory, he grew even faster. Now he is still a little chubby, but he has become a puppy that Chenchen can barely hold with his hands.
Fu Yuanhang said, "Compared to Dahei, he is much bigger."
"Xiaohang, have you grown taller too? You are almost as tall as my forehead." Su Taotao was surprised.
Su Taotao, who is 1.68 meters tall, is not short in any era.
Fu Yuanhang has been growing like a joint since he came to the island. He grows taller every month. In just a few months, he has grown several centimeters and is almost catching up with Mumu.
Fu Yuanhang nodded: "I think so. I have been playing a lot of basketball recently. Everyone says that I have grown taller."
Su Taotao said: "It seems that playing basketball is helpful for growing taller. Time flies. You will start school soon. Soon after school starts, it will be Mid-Autumn Festival, and then Winter Solstice, Chinese New Year...
By the way, my mother will come during the Chinese New Year. I am looking forward to the Chinese New Year."
Fu Yuanhang smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, Mumu and I can go back to pick up mother, you don't have to go back."
Su Taotao said: "Can you two do it?"
Fu Yuanhang said: "I'll try to grow a little bit before the New Year and I'll be as tall as you. I've walked this road twice, I can do it, believe me."
Su Taotao nodded and said, "Okay, it depends. I'll be very busy at the end of the year and may not be able to leave. I can send someone from the factory to go back with you."
Fu Yuanhang knew that his sister-in-law was still worried, so he nodded and said, "Okay."
Chenchen had obviously gone to the "beach" to play in the sand, and was playing very hard. He didn't even look over here, but now he ran over and poked his head in:
"Mom~~ Can I go with my little uncle to pick up grandma~~"
Su Taotao and Fu Yuanhang said in unison: "No!"
Chen Chen said disappointedly, "Ah~~"
"There are more people during the Spring Festival than usual, and you are so small that it is easy to get lost. You won't be able to see us then." Su Taotao said.
Chen Chen shook his head: "No~~ Okay, okay~~ I won't go~~"
