Li Jing looked at Shen Wanhua in disbelief, as if thinking how he could say that about himself.
However, under Shen Wanhua's firm gaze, she still gave in and dared not look at him again.
She lowered her head and thought about it, then felt unwilling to accept it. She immediately cried and covered her face, saying, "I can't live like this anymore. You guys with the surname Shen can bully me as much as you want!"
“You are so unreasonable at your age.” Shen Wanhua scolded and went straight into the house.
Li Jing also stopped crying, with a look of regret on her face.
The three sisters of the Shen family all stood aside, and except for the youngest one, Shen Yuexin, they all watched the scene helplessly.
This has happened too many times, and they all understand their mother's routine. She is simply taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. Afterwards, when she calms down, she still has to go and coax her father obediently!
Seeing that the war was over, Shen Yuewan asked, "Mom, I've bought all the vegetables. How are we going to cook them? Can you arrange it?"
"They father and son have bullied me so much, and they still want me to cook for them? Bullshit!" Li Jing cursed and went into the house.
At Grandma Su's house, An Hongdou held Dabao and asked Chen Xiangzhi, "Hey, are we going to go in the evening?"
Looking at Chen Xiangzhi's stepmother, she must be a troublesome person. She might get into trouble again if she goes there.
But to be fair, Shen Wanhua is still a good person. He has already asked, and if he just doesn't go, it would be a bit too humiliating.
Before Chen Xiangzhi could speak, Grandma Su said, "Go ahead, go ahead. Your father has come to say it himself. If you don't go, he won't look good in front of your Aunt Li. Besides, you are still surnamed Shen after all. You have returned to Jiangcheng with your wife and children. How can you not go back to your own home to see what's going on?"
Chen Xiangzhi weighed the pork and celery in his hand with regret, "I was thinking of eating the dumplings my grandma made tonight, but it seems I won't be able to eat them. What a pity."
"What's there to regret? We haven't had lunch yet. If you want to eat, grandma will make it for you now. Ask your grandpa to help too. We have strength in numbers, so we can eat in a short while." Shen Xiangzhi took the pork and celery from his hand and said.
"Why would I do anything? This is all your women's business." Mr. Shen is a cultured man. He follows the rules passed down from ancient times that a gentleman should keep his chefs at a distance, so he still has to save face.
Normally it would be fine if it was just the two of them, but now, in front of his grandson and his grandson's wife, Grandpa Su was unwilling to do anything that would lower his status.
"Who said cooking is a woman's job? You are so capable, why don't you just not eat? Just starve to death." Grandma Su also has a temper, especially in recent years. She has been used to staying in the countryside with Grandpa Su. In addition, Grandpa Su has become much softer in temper as he has grown older, which makes her look tougher.
After hearing this, Grandpa Su was speechless.
Just then, the baby in his arms saw that everyone else was talking and no one was paying attention to him, so he immediately whined in dissatisfaction. Grandpa Su took the opportunity to say, "I have to comfort the child. Let my wife make dumplings with you, and I'll look after the children."
Those two familiar words made Shen Xiangzhi's face darken again in an instant.
But this cannot be blamed on Grandpa Su. When he left, Shen Xiangzhi was still a teenager. He has been thinking about the child in the past few years, and occasionally he would silently recite his child's nickname in his heart.
It's really not easy to change the name so suddenly.
Looking at Shen Xiangzhi's dark face, Grandpa Su immediately changed his tone and said, "Let Xiangzhi help too. You three mothers will make dumplings, and I will take Changyue girl to look after the children."
"Hmph!" Grandma Su snorted coldly, giving him face and not caring about it anymore.
An Hongdou looked at the skinny Grandpa Su and was afraid that the two of them couldn't take care of three children, so she said, "Grandma and I can just take care of it, and you three can take care of the children. Otherwise, Dabao and Erbao are so heavy and naughty that Grandpa can't hold them all by himself."
"I'll go move the small bed out. It happens to be sunny right now, so let Grandpa and Changyue watch them sit on the bed and bask in the sun." Shen Xiangzhi didn't have the same idea as Grandpa Su.
In the past, Mr. Shen mostly ate here, so it was not an exaggeration to say that the two families were one family.
But ever since Grandma Su and Grandpa Su left, Shen Xiangzhi has learned how to cook. Now, although he is not a master chef, he is pretty good at it.
By the time I finished wrapping the pork and celery dumplings for lunch, the sun had already set.
Shen Xiangzhi had the best appetite and ate the most, and he had already started burping.
He rested for a while, and when it was getting dark, he brought up the matter.
Before leaving, Shen Xiangzhi called An Changyue, “Changyue, you can go with him.”
An Hongdou asked him, "Would it be inappropriate to let Changyue go as well?"
If it was her own mother-in-law, she wouldn't say anything. Su Su would definitely not say anything if she brought someone over.
The key point is that Li Jing is a stepmother-in-law, and not a very good one.
Although she is not afraid of trouble, there is really no need for her to let herself be bullied.
"What's inappropriate? If Changyue doesn't go, and something happens to me, can you take care of three children by yourself?" Putting aside other things, there are only two arms, and it would be a problem to hold them all.
"Then... go." An Hongdou said, and An Changyue followed.
It was impossible to ride a bicycle with three children, but fortunately the journey was not too far and we arrived in more than half an hour.
An Hongdou put a sling on Shen Xiangzhi, letting him carry one child on his back and holding another, while she held one herself, and An Changyue walked by herself.
As they walked, An Hongdou discovered a clue.
"Isn't the house that grandpa gave us right here?" An Hongdou asked.
"Of course, only this area has single-family houses." This is also the most comfortable residential area, which is unmatched by any other place in the city.
That being said, the place where they will live in the future should not be far from the Shen family.
If Li Jing is really that difficult to get along with, my future life will probably be exciting.
I don’t know what Grandma Su and Mr. Su were thinking to let them live next to the Shen family.
However, when An Hongdou walked past, she realized that, in fact, the Shen family was some distance away from their house.
You have to turn two corners and walk through two alleys before you can reach the Shen family.
Before I even entered the door, I could smell the fragrance coming from the yard.
After walking in, Shen Wanhua politely said, "Are you here?" and stood up to pick up the child.
Shen Xiangzhi was finally freed from the pincer attack.
Shen Yuewan came out of the kitchen and came up excitedly to tease Dabao in Shen Wanhua's arms, "Brother, brother, this is your son, he is so cute, he looks chubby, so lovable."
After that, she asked Chen Xiangzhi with a longing look on her face, "Can I hug him?"
