The host and guests enjoyed the meal very much. When it was time to clean up the dishes, Ling Ju wanted to go, but was stopped by Grandma Song.
"Silly child, there's no need for you to wash the dishes when there are so many people here. Just sit down and talk to grandma. I see you like her very much."
Grandma Song had fair skin, big double eyelids, a high nose bridge, good teeth, and neatly combed shoulder-length hair that wasn't too long. This overturned Ling Ju's perception of most people in their seventies.
Looking at Grandpa Song’s square face, I sighed that it was fortunate that the children of the Song family did not inherit Grandpa Song’s face shape, but only inherited his height and physique.
Otherwise, she really couldn't imagine what it would be like for Song Qi to have a square face...
I imagined it in my mind and quickly discarded the idea.
Ling Ju discovered that Chen Chun and Tian Mei seemed to get along very well, and the two of them kept praising each other's business.
Chen Chun said, "I usually just cook and take care of the flowers. I leave all the housework to the children."
Tian Mei said, "Me too, I really like growing flowers. I see you have a lot of Clivias at home, and I like Clivias too."
Chen Chun, "Really? The Clivia flowers are so beautiful! After the New Year, I'll go to your flower and bird market to see the flowers!"
Tian Mei, "That's great!"
Tian Mei, "Look at your three children, each one is more handsome than the other. They all look like you and have great temperament."
Chen Chun said, "You're still blaming me? Look at your two children! Look at Ling Yong, he's handsome and well-mannered. Your Orange is fair and pretty. That child is broad-minded and sensible. Our Song Qi is really lucky!"
The two of them were praising each other's business. Chen Chun looked at Ling Ju who was talking to Grandma Song and remembered his previous misunderstanding of her. "My dear, there is something I still need to tell you. When Song Qi and Juzi first got married, I had some misunderstandings about Juzi. I said some harsh words at the time, and I regretted it so much later. I told you this because I can't get over it. But don't worry, this will never happen again!"
Tian Mei didn't expect Chen Chun to tell her this, but Chen Chun's frankness did surprise her. Generally, mothers-in-law would not be nice to their daughters-in-law, especially those from such a wealthy family.
She was quite worried before she came, so the things she brought were all very precious medicinal herbs.
But she really didn't know about this. "Juzi didn't tell me about what you said. Don't think too much about it. Let's get along well in the future and make the child worry less.
Moreover, Orange has changed a lot since she married Song Qi. His father and I were also very surprised. Don’t look at her being eloquent now. She was not like this more than half a year ago.
She suffered a lot as a child due to poor health and nearly lost her life. Later, she became obese due to medication and was constantly ridiculed and bullied. This led to her being introverted and cowardly since childhood. "For her to become what she is now, her father and I have nothing else to ask for."
Tian Mei had tears in her eyes as she looked at the now healthy and beautiful Ling Ju, who not only had a happy marriage and family, but also seemed to have been reborn.
After hearing what Tian Mei said, Chen Chun was suddenly filled with guilt.
It turns out that my daughter-in-law was fat because she was in poor health and had to take medicine, and she was bullied since she was a child.
Thinking about what I did before, I feel like a piece of shit.
Chen Chun's guilty expression was written all over his face, and Tian Mei couldn't help but notice it. She held Chen Chun's hand and said, "Let's not dwell on the bad things in the past. The children are married now, and we will have grandchildren soon. Let's just live a good life and be positive about the future!"
Shen Chun nodded, and the two women formed a united front at this moment.
Ling Ju listened to every word of their conversation, and it would be a lie to say that she was not moved.
While the women were talking about their innermost thoughts, Grandpa Song was happily chatting with his youngest son Song Zhiqing and Ling Dawei. In the end, they were talking about nothing but things in the army, what battles they had fought and who they had killed.
Ling Dawei exudes the solemnity and seriousness of a soldier, but when he talks about fighting, he is also very ruthless, even though he has been away from the battlefield for many years.
Song Qiangjun is an old Red Army soldier. Soldiers can quickly find common topics to talk about. Song Zhiqing has been in the army, but later changed his direction to go into politics. Compared with Ling Dawei, he has a gentle and elegant temperament, talks and laughs, and always gives people a feeling of being as gentle as spring breeze.
Ling Ju put him in the same category as Song Wei, except that he had better control over his facial expressions, always smiling. Experience is always a testament to his skill. Song Zhiqing's gentle demeanor was bound to attract women, but Ling Ju couldn't understand why he didn't get married. Could he have a hidden illness or a quirky habit?
The more she thought about it, the more curious she became. She stared at Song Zhiqing's face for a long time without realizing it. It was not until Song Zhiqing turned his head and looked at her that Ling Ju quickly turned her head away. Oh my god, Second Uncle's expression might as well not be smiling. It's scary.
It's so scary to watch...
Song Zhiqing saw his niece's wife's panicked expression. After all, she was an elder, so he just smiled faintly. Unexpectedly, the girl's face looked as if she had seen a ghost.
Does he look that scary?
Song Zhiqing touched his chin and fell into thought.
Is it because my smile isn't pretty enough? No, go back and practice again. Should I show some teeth?
Ling Ju didn't know what Song Zhiqing was thinking, but this second uncle was obviously more dangerous than Song Wei.
After everyone chatted animatedly for a while, Song Xin took grandpa and grandma back home to take a nap. As they get older, they always need to get a good rest.
Ling Ju discovered that there was indeed some gray energy in Grandma Song's brain, so she had to persuade Song Qi to find a way to take Grandma Song to the hospital for a check-up.
Elderly people are prone to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and once they occur, the diseases can be very serious.
Ling Ju felt very tired after taking the train, and she loved to sleep since she became pregnant, so she didn't plan to go out. She wanted to take a nap with Song Qi in the afternoon and go out for a walk in the evening.
As the New Year approaches, the streets outside must be very busy.
