She immediately stopped the two children from speaking, then told them her thoughts, and finally gave them a surprise.
Actually, she was afraid that she would soften her heart, but fortunately, the two children had never disappointed her. They were so well-behaved and sensible that she sometimes felt extremely indebted to them.
"Mom knew you'd all grown up and could understand me. Luckily, you'll be going to school soon, and you'll be just as busy during the day as Mom."
“Even though Mom misses you terribly, Mom can hold it in,” Suti praised the two little ones.
She changed her approach to feigning weakness, and the two children fell for it.
"Mom, don't worry, even when we go to school, we will still think about you, Dad, and Great-Grandma."
He patted his chest and assured his mother, while also comforting her, completely forgetting what he and his brother had initially discussed.
He felt that everything his mother said was right, and they should support her; they were all good children.
Once home, the two children ran off to play, carefree and without a trace of their initial tantrums.
"Honey, I'm going to return the car to Grandpa and the others first. I'll go back to see them tomorrow night. You guys have dinner first, don't wait for me, I'll be back in a bit."
Li Baichuan felt it was getting late, so he decided not to disturb his grandfather and the others.
"Okay," Suti replied. When her grandmother saw her return, she happily asked the nanny to add two more dishes.
"Darling, are you tired of studying? Are your classmates easy to get along with?" Even though their daughter is very smart, the elders still have the mentality of worrying about everything until they are a hundred years old.
Her daughter used to be bullied at school because her hair accessories were newer than theirs.
Or perhaps they felt that their daughter was prettier than them. In the past, their family was cautious, and even if they went to reason with the parents, they would still try to persuade them.
They could shut them down with a simple "abusing their power."
They don't care anymore. What bullying? If they really tried to bully others, they wouldn't even know where they were.
Now no one can bully their child.
"Grandma, school is great, and I've made some good friends. They said they're coming to visit me tomorrow."
"Everyone worked hard to get into this school, they are all focused on their studies, and they are all easy to get along with."
“Our teacher is also very capable, and I feel that every day is very fulfilling.” Suti didn’t mean to only share good news and not bad news.
She didn't care about those bad people at all, so there was no need for her to tell her grandmother.
"Really? Then Grandma will cook something delicious for you tomorrow and treat your classmates well." Grandma felt relieved to see her daughter so happy.
She rarely showed any of the liveliness of a young girl; since going to the countryside, she has lost that bit of her cheerfulness.
Especially after returning to Beijing, she seemed to have suddenly grown up, but in her eyes, her daughter was still a child.
We should live like this, carefree and without worries, just like in Chaochao Hehe.
"Mommy, Mommy..." Grandma was thinking when the two little ones rushed in.
"Mom, everyone says you're a college student. Monkey and Deng Xiaojiu even asked us if our college student mom has come back yet?"
Chaochao Hehe had just gone out and played with a few children in the alley for a while; the monkey belonged to the family in front of them.
He was two years older than Chaochao Hehe, and his family had many children who were basically raised freely. Deng Xiaojiu was their neighbor.
Chaochao and Hehe didn't understand why they were asking this; their mother was still the same as before.
“They’re just curious, you can answer however you want.” Suti has always prioritized the children’s own wishes in their education.
The children were curious, probably because they heard it from their parents; they hadn't been curious about it since they saw it every day before.
Suddenly she became a college student, and even the top scorer. Everyone started to idolize her, and now they're all curious about her.
Suti didn't intend to teach them how to speak, because she knew the two little ones could handle the problem perfectly well.
“Okay, let’s go and talk to them.” The two rushed outside together.
Suti secretly followed them, she was just a little curious about what they were saying.
Seeing the mother and children like this, the grandmother didn't ask any more questions. She never said a word when it came to educating children.
She has always believed that parents are the children's teachers, and that their ideas are outdated.
Besides, how can everyone have the same viewpoint?
If one parent teaches while the other disagrees and tries to stop them, and the adults' opinions are not aligned, it will be difficult to raise a successful child.
Grandma never asked, and even when she disagreed, she would discuss it with Nannan and the others in private.
The results over the years are still visible; the two children have been raised very well, and are smart, sensible, and considerate.
They are responsible, loving, and ambitious. Grandma felt that all the best words to describe them were appropriate.
"Li Tengyuan, Li Chenxiao, we don't believe it."
Suti secretly hid behind the door, listening to the two children's bluff.
When asked questions, they never gave a direct answer. If they encountered something they didn't understand, they would seriously make it up.
Anyway, not a word about what happened at home was leaked, which made the quick-witted Suti very happy.
"Believe it or not, my mother is just going to school, it's not like what you're saying."
Chaochao pulled her impulsive younger brother back and looked at the adult who had come over from somewhere, explaining earnestly.
“Your mothers will definitely not want you anymore. My mother said she is a college graduate and a very promising person.”
“She’s even more formidable than my grandfather. By then, your father won’t be good enough for her, and she’ll run off with someone else. You’ll be children without a mother.”
The speaker was Deng Xiaojiu, who lived next door to Suti's family. They rarely interacted, and Suti didn't have a deep impression of their family.
All I know is that the whole family lived together and hadn't separated. The child seemed to belong to the youngest son of the Deng family.
His so-called maternal grandfather worked at the grain station, and he could see him every time he went to the street to collect his grain rations.
Every time the family talks about him, they are filled with pride. It's rare to hear someone say that Suti is better than him.
The fact that he could say that shows that the adults probably say a lot about her behind her back.
“You’re right. My mother is a very successful person, but my father is also very capable, as are my grandfather and my great-grandfather.”
“My mom is different from your mom. She loves us very much, and she loves my dad even more. She would never leave us.”
Chaochao retorted loudly, showing no stage fright whatsoever, which made the adults watching the show feel embarrassed.
"No, you're wrong. My mother is right." The youngest son of the Deng family got angry when he heard that what he said was different from what his mother said.
"Hmph, you want to fight? We're not afraid of you. If you dare to hit my brother, I'll tell my dad."
In Chaochao Hehe's mind, their father is incredibly powerful and won't accept any rebuttal.
