Li Huai remembered their room number and quickly found the room and knocked on the door.
Xiao Duo ran over to open the door for him; Da Wa and the others were also there.
Zhao Qinglan was taking things out when she saw him come in and asked, "Are you alright?"
"It's okay, I just talked to him and reasoned with him."
Zhao Qinglan chuckled. What kind of logic is this? Is it about whose fist is harder?
However, she also knew that her husband was not an impulsive person, so if he said everything was fine, then everything was fine.
The children ran around the house curiously, touching and looking at everything.
They had traveled before, but this was the first time they had stayed in such a nice hotel room.
Zhao Qinglan learned from her previous mistake of not being willing to spend money on taxis, and this time she was going to bleed a lot of money.
The hotel only has three suites this big, and they took up two of them.
The reason the fat man brought a female companion but wanted a suite was because he had previously boasted to her about how great the suites were, and after being flattered by her, he brought his companion to see for himself.
The suite had two large beds, a living room, and two bathrooms. After Zhao Qinglan had finished packing, she took her three sons to their room.
Seeing a telephone in the house, the eldest child asked, "Mom, can I use this phone to call Cheng Tao?"
"It should work, you can try." She wasn't sure either.
Da Wa immediately found the phone number Cheng Tao had given him and dialed it.
Cheng Tao was in a car that was going very fast, and he was already having dinner at home.
He's been going back and forth to his grandparents' place this time.
Perhaps because Cheng Tao is an only child and he rarely comes back, his grandparents seem to dote on him, and they are putting all sorts of food into his bowl.
While we were eating, the phone rang, and the housekeeper answered it.
"A boy said he was looking for Tao Tao."
Cheng Tao immediately jumped up. "It must be Yan Sen."
He dashed to the phone, picked up the receiver, and started chatting with Da Wa.
Even Cheng's grandparents knew about Da Wa's existence because their grandson and son and daughter-in-law frequently mentioned him.
Grandma and her husband discussed it. "They've always been very kind to our Tao Tao. Now that they're visiting Haishi, we should invite them over for a meal from time to time."
The old man pondered for a moment. "This isn't urgent, let's ask Tao Tao first."
For people like them, inviting others to dinner is a way of expressing gratitude, but for some, it might be a burden or pressure.
Cheng Tao chatted happily for a while, and when he returned after hanging up the phone, his face was still full of smiles.
"Are you that happy?" Grandma asked with a smile.
"Grandma, I want to go play with Yansen after I finish eating, is that okay?"
"You just got home and you're already thinking about running away again. Is that Yan Sen really that good?"
"Grandma, Yan Sen is really, really good. You'll know when you meet him. Yan Xun, Xiao Duo, and Yan An are all very good too." He immediately began to praise them.
"Your grandma really wants to see them."
"Tao Tao, what do you think if your grandparents invite your friends' family over for dinner?" Grandpa Cheng asked.
"Let's eat. Let me ask Yan Sen and the others if they want to come." He didn't immediately agree.
After dinner, Cheng Tao was about to leave, but his grandmother was worried about him, so she had to call her grandson Cheng Ce to take him there.
Cheng Ce didn't dare say anything in front of his grandparents, but he started teasing his younger brother on the way.
"Hey kid, now that you're back, I've become your personal driver, haven't I?"
"Brother, I didn't want to either, but Grandpa and Grandma insisted on doing it this way." Cheng Tao looked completely innocent.
Cheng Ce resisted the urge to roll his eyes. "Don't be so smug after getting the benefits."
Cheng Ce was somewhat surprised to learn where Zhao Qinglan and the others were staying.
Despite his polite demeanor towards Zhao Qinglan and the others at the train station, he still harbors a certain arrogance. His politeness is simply a product of his upbringing.
He never expected that the unremarkable person from what he considered a small town would end up staying at one of the best hotels in the city.
Cheng Tao hadn't expected his cousin to have so many hidden thoughts; on the way, he was even muttering about where they should go for fun.
While driving, Cheng Ce casually asked, "Tao Tao, what does your friend's family do?"
Cheng Tao answered without much thought. "Uncle Li is a soldier, and Aunt Zhao runs a business. The food at Aunt Zhao's shop tastes amazing."
A soldier? No wonder he felt that the man's demeanor was different from ordinary people when he saw him. And that Aunt Zhao, she must have made a lot of money in business, otherwise why would she stay in such an expensive hotel?
He had been to that hotel before, but he didn't dare to stay there easily because of the prices.
Cheng Ce was also somewhat curious about Zhao Qinglan's family, but after learning about them, he didn't ask any further questions.
After dropping Cheng Tao off at the hotel, Cheng Ce reminded him, "Remember to call home when you get back, and I'll come out to pick you up."
"Brother, really, it's not necessary. I can go back by myself."
"That's not up to me." After choking back his words, Cheng Ce drove away.
Cheng Tao found Da Wa's room and exclaimed in surprise as soon as he entered.
Despite being from Haishi, he doesn't come back often, so his knowledge isn't much better than Da Wa's.
"Never mind, I'm not going back tonight. I want to experience it here too." Cheng Tao made a decision immediately.
"If you want to stay, then stay. The beds here are huge anyway," Da Wa laughed.
There are two large beds. He and Cheng Tao will share one, and Erwa and Sanwa will share the other.
Upon learning that Cheng Tao had arrived, Zhao Qinglan even took a stroll around the area.
Xiao Duo had become quite familiar with Cheng Tao, so she didn't go back right away after running over.
After Zhao Qinglan returned to her room, Li Huai saw that no one was behind her, so he immediately closed the door, carried her to the bedside, and threw her down.
"It's still broad daylight, aren't you afraid the children will come over soon?" Zhao Qinglan gave her husband a reproachful look.
"Let's hurry up." His daughter was finally away, so he had to seize the opportunity to get something done.
Even though they each sleep in their own rooms at night, he couldn't do anything he wanted because his daughter was staying in the other room. Now it's perfect.
Fortunately, Xiao Duo stayed there for quite a while, which satisfied Li Huai.
When Xiaoduo came back, she saw that her parents had just finished showering, so she didn't overthink it.
After several days on the train, everyone smelled bad, but she had just washed herself.
As soon as Xiaoduo left, the four boys started making a ruckus in the other room, and even the lazy third child joined his older brothers in playing.
It was only when Zhao Qinglan saw that it was mealtime and went to call the children to eat that the kids finally calmed down.
Seeing that they were covered in sweat from fighting, Zhao Qinglan told them with a look of disgust to take a shower and change into clean clothes before coming out.
Cheng Tao didn't bring any change of clothes, so he had to wear the older child's clothes for the time being.
After everyone had finished getting ready, Zhao Qinglan led the group downstairs to eat.
Their large and impressive procession attracted attention wherever they went.
