"Mom, why are you here?" Liu Yi, who was chatting with Du Chen, suddenly saw his mother.
"Hello, Du Chen. Are you helping your mom run the store again? You're so good!"
Liu Yi's mother first greeted Du Chen with a friendly expression, then her expression changed and she started to lecture Liu Yi.
"You kid, you didn't go home after school! Ah, and you even asked your classmates to come over and tell me you weren't going home?"
"Can't you come home and tell me? Du Chen's store is so busy, and Auntie is busy every day. If you still eat at their house, you will only cause trouble for them!"
"I think you're going to make a scene! You're just learning not to go home without even saying hello or a word! Come on! Come home with me!"
Then, Liu Yi's mother spoke to Du Chen with a smile on her face.
"Du Chen, I won't bother you anymore. I'll take Liu Yi home now. See you at school tomorrow. I won't bother your mom anymore. I'm leaving now."
Du Chen was a little amused and helpless. Liu Yi's mother's expression changed so quickly. Just as he was about to speak, Liu Yi spoke first.
"No! I don't want to go home! I want to finish my meal here before going back! Auntie also asked me to stay here for dinner!"
Liu Yi was so angry that he refused to leave. He felt that his mother didn't give him any face in front of Du Chen.
"Hey, you dead kid! I can't control you anymore! Hurry up! Go home!" Liu Yi's mother rolled up her sleeves as she spoke.
"Auntie, calm down. I asked Liu Yi to stay. Let him have dinner at my house and come back after dinner!"
Du Chen hurriedly persuaded Liu Yi's mother.
At this time, Comrade Lao Du and Du Chen's mother, who were cooking inside, also heard people arguing outside, so they put down their work and hurried out.
"Oh, isn't this Liu Yi's mother? What's wrong?"
When Comrade Lao Du saw that it was Liu Yi's mother, he greeted her and went back to the house to prepare dinner, leaving his wife to chat with Liu Yi's mother.
"Oh, Du Chen's mother, I'm sorry. Liu Yi didn't even say hello after school. He just asked his classmates to tell me that they would have dinner at your house tonight."
"I say, you're so busy, and him being here is just causing more trouble! I should come over quickly and tell him to go home!"
"Hey, I thought something was wrong. What's wrong with the child eating here? It's okay. Let Liu Yi play with Du Chen here and go home after dinner!"
"I'm so sorry! Liu Yi has already troubled your family enough in one day!"
Liu Yi's mother blushed a little.
"It's okay, it's okay. Why don't you just eat here too?"
"No, no, Liu Yi's father will be home soon. I'll go home and cook too."
Liu Yi's mother saw that there was nothing she could do about the situation. Liu Yi would definitely not go home, and it would be ugly if the stalemate continued, so she turned around and threatened Liu Yi again.
"Liu Yi, just wait and see how I deal with you when you get home. And don't mess with your aunt here! Be obedient, or you'll never be able to come out and play again! Do you hear me?"
"I know, I know, Mom, you should go home and cook. My dad will be home soon!"
Liu Yi said to his mother happily, not taking his mother's threat seriously at all.
Liu Yi's mother was at a loss as to what to do when she saw Liu Yi's shameless look. She had no choice but to say hello to Du Chen's mother and hurried home. After all, Liu Yi was right. Her husband would be home soon and she hadn't prepared dinner yet.
Du Chen's mother saw Liu Yi's mother leave and went back to the house to prepare dinner. Liu Yi jumped for joy on the spot. Du Bin just came back from school at that time.
"Hey, Liu Yi, what are you so happy about?"
"Brother, have you seen Sister Miaomiao?"
At this time, Du Chen first asked Du Bin.
"She went home. We just separated."
"Brother, go call Sister Miaomiao back quickly. Sister Miaomiao's parents are having dinner here tonight!"
After hearing this, Du Bin didn't ask any more questions, but turned around and ran out of the store.
After a while, Du Bin and Ding Miaomiao entered the store together.
"Chenchen, your brother told me that my parents will come over for dinner tonight?"
"Yes, Sister Miaomiao, Uncle Ding came to the store this afternoon and told my mom."
"Why did you suddenly want to have dinner together?"
Ding Miaomiao muttered to herself in confusion.
"My mom told me that the theft case seems to have been solved, so Uncle Ding is in high spirits. It's time for us all to get together and have some fun."
Du Chen said truthfully.
"Really? The case has been solved?"
Ding Miaomiao asked Du Chen in surprise.
"Ah, Sister Miaomiao, don't you know? I heard it from my mom."
"I definitely don't know. I haven't seen my dad since I left your store that day. I guess he's been busy solving cases and arresting people, right?"
"Uncle Ding is so responsible..."
Du Chen praised.
"That's right, my dad is a good policeman!"
"Oh, my daughter is praising me! Listen, my wife, Miaomiao praised me for being a good policeman!" Old Ding, who had just entered the room, happened to hear Ding Miaomiao's words and said happily to his wife.
"But you are not a good father!" Ding Miaomiao rolled her eyes at Lao Ding, then spoke to attack Lao Ding.
Lao Ding's smile was awkward on his face.
"Miaomiao, Dad is busy! You also said that I am a good policeman, so I have to be busy catching bad guys all day long."
Old Ding stammered in his defense.
"Yes, busy catching bad guys and drinking..."
Ding Miaomiao activated her taunt skill.
Lao Ding likes to drink but he is not addicted to it. However, Lao Ding’s stomach is not very good, so whenever he drinks, he will be scolded by his wife and Miaomiao.
"Hey, give Dad some face and we'll talk about it when we get home."
Old Ding said with a smug look on his face.
Du Bin shuddered as he watched the assertive Ding Miaomiao. He wondered if he had ever offended her. If so, he should have apologized immediately. Ding Miaomiao's aura was terrifying.
"Old Ding, you're here. Come in. The meal is almost ready. This is your wife, right? Come in and sit down."
Comrade Lao Du heard someone talking outside in the inner room and guessed that it was Lao Ding coming. He came out and saw that it was indeed Lao Ding.
"Lao Du, this is my wife, Jia Xiaomin."
"Hello, Lao Du, sorry to bother you today!"
"Come on, Lao Ding, Xiao Jia, come in and sit down!"
"And you kids, come in and sit down too. Dinner is ready, let's eat."
Comrade Lao Du quickly invited everyone into the house to eat.
The two families got to know each other and then sat down to have dinner, mainly for Lao Ding's wife to get to know a few people.
Just as they sat down and hadn't even taken a bite of their meal, Lao Ding raised his glass and said to Lao Du, "Come on, Lao Du, have a drink!"
"Come on, do it!"
"Old Du, we have to thank Chenchen this time. If he hadn't provided us with clues, this case might have taken a long time to solve."
"Who the hell would have thought that these guys would come over more than ten kilometers from where we live in a donkey cart to steal rails? They didn't go to the city when it was so close to us."
"Hey, what are you thanking me for? It's not just a coincidence!"
