Chapter 247, Shopping with my son
"Okay, let's stop talking about these things. I feel upset when I see you." He really doesn't care about himself at all.
Is he blind? Didn't he see the certificates at home?
Pingping still had many questions to ask, but when he saw his father's angry face, he decided to just shut up.
"Dad, do you agree with me joining?" He had not planned to tell his family, but now that his father knew, he decided to ask.
"It depends on you. If you want, it's a good place to make achievements. But it's also the most dangerous place." It's not that easy to make achievements.
Pingping was aware of this, but because of the interference of Staff Officer Hu at that time, he really didn't think about this problem.
I just wanted to compete with the people there.
I also want to get better training.
Looking at his son's pensive look, Mao Jianwen sighed, "Don't tell your mother about this." Just like when he participated in the South Vietnam research, he didn't dare to worry his family, so he kept it secret.
She knew Qianqian seemed strong on the surface, but after all, he was her own child. How could she bear to let him go to such a dangerous place?
Even he couldn't bear to do so.
But I respect Pingping’s own choice more.
"Well, I didn't intend to tell you." Pingping lowered his head.
Mao Jianwen understood, "As for you, as long as you come back safely, that's more important than anything else. Your parents don't necessarily want you to succeed, but they hope you're safe and healthy."
As parents, compared with life, success is really not important. Safety is a blessing.
The family's financial situation is not bad, and there is enough time for the four children to have fun for the rest of their lives even if they do nothing.
"But Dad, I want to try." Pingping said speechlessly.
"Then go ahead."
The equipment in the new team is also the best equipment currently available in the country, so there is still 80% guarantee for life.
As long as you don't get shot in the head.
"But what about mom?" Pingping still felt a little uneasy.
"Your mother will understand, don't worry." He knew what kind of person Qianqian was. Apart from her initial reluctance, she would slowly open up her heart once things were settled.
When Li Yulan and others came back from outside, they found that their eldest grandson was back. They were so excited.
Looking at their grandson's changed look, everyone exclaimed "good".
"Good boy, you've become much stronger. It seems that the army is a place to train people." Chairman Mao looked at his grandson who was twice as tall as himself, and the smile on his face never stopped.
"Taller, stronger, but darker." Women care about different things than men.
"Not as handsome as before." Grandma smiled unkindly.
Ping Ping rubbed his flat head innocently and said, "This is good. I was too delicate before."
"Kid, don't let An An and the others hear this, or you'll be in trouble." An's mother patted Ping Ping's back, but not with much force.
"By the way, I have good news to tell you. Your eldest brother is engaged. I couldn't get through to you last time I called you, and then I forgot about it." Li Yulan was happy, but she also remembered that Pingping was the same age as Anan.
"An An also has a girlfriend, and they are getting engaged this year." Li Yulan lied to Ping Ping.
"I know that my elder brother is engaged. He left me a message, but An An didn't say that he was engaged this year." Ping Ping looked surprised.
After hearing this, everyone understood that these brothers were in constant contact with each other.
"Is he the one who has the final say?" Li Yulan immediately frowned when she saw Pingping was not fooled.
"Marriage is a matter for parents to decide. He is just a tool."
Grandma is the boss, and whatever she says is right.
Pingping observed a second of silence for An An.
"By the way, what about you? Do you have a girlfriend in the army these years?" An An already has a girlfriend, so shouldn't Ping Ping, as the eldest brother, also take action?
Pingping almost peed herself when she was stared at by five pairs of eyes at once.
"No, I haven't met the right one." He really didn't think about these things at this time.
He feels that marriage is still a long way off.
"This vacation is long, how about your grandma and your grandmother arrange some blind dates for you?"
Speaking of this, Li Yulan and An's mother immediately became interested.
An Qianqian gave him a self-aware look.
Fortunately, everyone knew that Pingping had worked hard on the journey back, so they let him rest after dinner.
An An couldn't come back because he had unfinished business at school and also because of the competition he had last participated in.
But he was still very happy about his elder brother's return.
I plan to finish all my work within these few days so that I can go back and have a good reunion with my eldest brother.
Pingping maintained his habit in the army and got up early the next day and went for a morning run in the community.
When he came back from his morning run, he saw his parents getting up.
"Morning, Mom and Dad."
"Good morning, why don't you sleep a little longer?" Seeing Pingping sweating profusely, An Qianqian quickly walked to his side and said, "It doesn't matter if you miss a day of exercise." After all, she is a mother, and she just feels sorry for her child.
"It's okay, Mom. I'm used to it. If I don't run for a day, I'll feel uncomfortable." Pingping didn't think there was anything wrong.
When they were young, didn’t they also get up early every day to run? It’s just that the amount of movement was not as great as he is now.
"Okay, since you won't listen to me anyway, go take a shower and come down for breakfast later."
Life at home is very comfortable.
Because he came back mainly to spend time with his parents. Since his father could not be with him due to work, he could just spend more time with his mother.
An Qianqian also knew that after so many years in the army, he had very few friends in Kyoto.
"Pingping, come shopping with your mother." She had never taken her son shopping before.
Since his mother had spoken, how could he dare to refuse?
"Okay, I'll go upstairs and change."
Soon, the mother and son drove out.
Pingping drove very steadily. An Qianqian sat next to him and asked him about some things that happened during his time with the team.
The mother and son were talking and laughing, and they were very harmonious.
After arriving at the mall, Pingping parked the car and came to his mother.
"Mom, why is the name of this shopping mall the same as the one run by Grandma Qiu?" When he lived in the northwest, he remembered that his mother and Grandma Qiu opened a supermarket together.
"You have a good memory, kid. This is exactly your grandma Qiu's shopping mall. However, the person in charge now is not your grandma Qiu, but grandma Qiu's son. You have to call her uncle."
Ever since Gao Qiulei retired, her husband and wife moved to Kyoto. Their children were worried about them, so they also opened a shopping mall here.
Over the years, we have achieved new results.
"Oh." He was not familiar with Grandma Qiu's uncle.
During the years I lived there, I never saw him come back.
"Let's go. Mom will buy you some clothes. The clothes you brought back are all for the army. There are no normal clothes at all."
My son is really thrifty.
"I don't need them, and it's a waste to buy them. Mom, you should buy them for yourself. These are fine for me." Looking at the clothes on himself, he didn't think there was anything wrong with them.
"Okay, your mom has the final say. If she says she'll buy it for you, then I'll buy it for you."
Stride into the mall.
An Qianqian is very familiar with this place, which shows that she comes here often.
