"Wife, why aren't you leaving yet? Is the second child up yet? The third sister and Yueyue will be here soon. It will be too late if you don't leave now."
Comrade Lao Du waited in the living room for a long time, but didn't see his wife and Du Chen come out, so he called out to them in the living room.
"Coming! Right now!"
Ren Surong responded, and soon led Du Chen to the living room.
"What are you dilly-dallying about?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Ren Surong.
"Ask Du Chen."
Ren Surong said to Comrade Lao Du while changing clothes.
"Du Chen, what have you done again?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen curiously, Du Chen should have been very well behaved recently and hadn't done anything?
"Dad, I didn't do anything..."
Du Chen tried to deceive Comrade Lao Du.
"Yes, you haven't done anything yet. You just want to take a year or two off from school."
Ren Surong interrupted.
"Second brother, are you feeling unwell? Why do you want to take a leave of absence from school?"
When Comrade Lao Du heard about the suspension of study, he was stunned for a moment. He thought that Du Chen was sick and needed to take a suspension of study.
"What could possibly be wrong with this little calf? He only realized he was only twelve years old when he heard Yueyue had graduated from elementary school. He lamented that his childhood was gone."
Ren Surong did not add any exaggeration, but just told Du Chen's psychological activities as they happened.
"What does that have to do with taking a leave of absence?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen in confusion.
"hey-hey……"
Du Chen didn't say anything, just laughed "hehe".
"Are you embarrassed now?"
Ren Surong laughed at Du Chen.
"Wife, tell me, what's going on?"
The three of them chatted as they walked out the door.
"It's a shame his childhood is gone. I told the second child that there's nothing we can do about it, since he skipped a grade and will be going to high school soon, followed by college in three years. There's nothing we can do about it. But the second child said he had an idea..."
"Suspension of study?"
Comrade Lao Du connected the joke very naturally.
"Well, at first I thought he was taking a leave of absence for some other good reason, but the second child said that if he took a leave of absence for a year or two, he would eat and sleep, sleep and play, play until tired and sleep, play until hungry and eat..."
Speaking of this, Ren Surong couldn't help but laugh. It was a good thing that Du Chen could think of it and dared to say it out loud.
“…”
Comrade Lao Du looked at Du Chen speechlessly.
Du Chen just laughed "hehe", using a silly smile to cover up his embarrassment.
"Come on, second brother, tell me, what were you thinking at that time?"
Comrade Lao Du suddenly became curious about what Du Chen was thinking just now. Taking a break from school for a year or two, eating, sleeping and playing every day, it seemed like a nice thought.
"I just felt a little bit sad that my childhood has passed in an instant, and I felt a little regretful."
Du Chen actually has no regrets at all. Does he regret not playing with the kids? But he has to find an excuse to answer Comrade Du's question, right?
"That can't be helped. When you were a kid, I asked you to go out and play with your friends more often, but you refused. It's too late to regret it now!"
Comrade Lao Du also said something to Du Chen with emotion.
"But, once you go to college, you'll be free. You can do whatever you want every day and play whatever you want. So, work hard, and you'll be free once you get to college."
Comrade Lao Du fed Du Chen chicken soup.
Du Chen secretly curled his lips, as if he had never been to college. After entering college, he started to worry about where to develop after graduation, whether it would be easy to find a job, and whether he could adapt to the society after entering it. There were too many things to worry about.
The biggest lies children have ever heard are: one, I will save your New Year’s money, two, you will be free when you go to college, and three, I will not care about you until you get married, you can do whatever you want!
As they were talking, the three of them had already arrived at the glasses store and saw Ren Suyun leading Gu Yue standing at the door of the glasses store.
"Suyun, when will you come? Chenchen is lying in bed and doesn't want to get up, why don't you come now?"
Ren Surong opened the door and explained to Ren Suyun.
Du Chen took the initiative to greet Gu Yue.
"Sister Yueyue, when will you finish the exam?"
"I just finished my exam yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't have come over to play with you today!"
Gu Yue said to Du Chen with a smile.
"Sister Yueyue, what do you want to play today? I'll take you there!"
It was rare for Du Chen to bring it up on his own initiative. After all, he had hardly seen Gu Yue in the past year. He only saw her when his third aunt brought Gu Yue to the glasses store. When he got home from school, it was time for Gu Yue to go home too.
"I don't know either. Do you have anything fun? Oh, where are Brother Binbin and Sister Miaomiao? Why don't I see them?"
Gu Yue looked around and didn't see Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao. She asked Du Chen curiously that she still wanted to play with Sister Miaomiao.
"My brother and sister Miaomiao went to work. They took advantage of the summer vacation to earn some pocket money and exercise themselves."
Du Chen said to Gu Yue. Ren Suyun, who was standing beside him, heard Du Chen's words and asked Ren Surong curiously.
"Sister, Du Bin and Miao Miao are still working? What are they doing?"
"Go on a sales spree, selling bottled water."
Ren Surong told Ren Suyun about Du Bin's holiday plans, and also mentioned that Du Bin was going to ask her to go to the hospital to see if he could sell bottled water there.
"Oh, these two kids are amazing! They didn't just go out and have fun after graduating from high school. They even went out to work. By the way, sister, brother-in-law, why don't you let them help out at home?"
Ren Suyun first praised the two of them, and then asked Comrade Lao Du and Ren Surong.
"Can they still get exercise at home? Let them go out and fight. Let them know that money is hard to earn and work is not easy."
Because Ren Suyun came today, Comrade Lao Du was not in a hurry to go to the repair shop. He had to chat with her for a while, and there was nothing much at the repair shop that required his close attention.
"By the way, sister, how are Du Bin and Miao Miao now?"
Suddenly, Ren Suyun asked her sister Ren Surong with a smile, with the four words "I am curious" written all over her face.
"Hey, I think it's about the same!"
Speaking of this, Ren Surong also became excited, and the two sisters started chatting and laughing.
"Really? Sister, tell me quickly, what's going on between the two of them? Are they still together?"
"Not yet, but I think it will be soon. The two kids seem to have that intention, so it's only a matter of time."
Ren Surong said with a proud look on her face that she was quite satisfied with Ding Miaomiao. Looking at the situation now, Ding Miaomiao would be included in their family's household registration book sooner or later.
"If you're interested, why haven't you done it yet? Du Bin doesn't know how to take the initiative, what a fool!"
Ren Suyun said regretfully.
"Hey, we can't be so anxious. We still have Lao Ding and Xiao Jia by our side every day. Anyway, it will be soon. Once the summer vacation is over and the two children go to college, Lao Ding won't be able to take care of them anymore!"
Ren Surong laughed wickedly.
"Sister, you have to remind Du Bin..."
