Chapter 66: Can't Save



Su Ting and He Dongchuan stayed in the room for two hours.

Although He's mother and Aunt Wang didn't ask anything after the two went downstairs, the more they did so, the more Su Ting felt that they knew everything. While they were busy in the kitchen, she secretly glared at He Dongchuan.

He Dongchuan was so confused by the stare that he asked, "What's wrong?"

Su Ting pursed her lips and said, "Mom and Aunt Wang must know."

"If they know, then they know. Don't worry, they won't ask you." He Dongchuan thought, seeing them looking so unhappy, his mother might be happy inside.

Su Ting thought that even if they didn't ask, she would still feel embarrassed when she thought about it. It was the first day back and she didn't even have a night to go! Thinking of the things in the trash can, Su Ting lowered her voice and said, "I don't care. Anyway, you have to get rid of that thing as soon as possible and don't let Mom find out."

He Dongchuan felt that Su Ting was trying to cover up her mistake. As a young couple, who would do nothing at night? Only if they really did nothing but lie down would his mother come to him to ask about the situation.

Just like when they got married, he just woke up the next morning and was called by his mother to ask what happened. When she learned that they had not done anything since getting the marriage certificate, she was so angry that she scolded him. Until they left the capital, his mother did not take the initiative to talk to him.

But seeing that Su Ting was so concerned, He Dongchuan did not say anything to discourage her, and said, "Okay, I'll go out and take out the trash tonight."

After hearing what he said, Su Ting reluctantly let the matter go.

He Dongchuan thought his mother would not talk to him again this time, but as soon as they finished talking, Cheng Xiaoman came out of the kitchen and found an excuse to call him to the room.

As soon as the door was closed, Cheng Xiaoman asked, "What happened between you and your wife?"

"We're fine." He Dongchuan looked puzzled.

"Nothing, but I just saw that she looked unhappy. I wanted to strangle you."

He Dongchuan was at a loss for words: "Weren't you cooking in the kitchen? How come you knew what we were doing outside? Also, she never pinched me, don't make random accusations."

"Okay, that's all I'm saying. Just tell me the truth. Are you two okay?"

"It's OK."

"Then why was she not so happy just now?"

"You're mistaken. She's just shy. Sorry." He Dongchuan said, "Oh, by the way, she asked me to take out the trash at night."

Cheng Xiaoman is a nurse and knows that giving birth consecutively is not good for the body. She specifically told He Dongchuan about this when she called him before and asked him to be careful.

Since his mother had said so, He Dongchuan did not hide his and Su Ting's plan and explained that they did not plan to have children in the next few years.

Therefore, Cheng Xiaoman knew that they were avoiding it. As for the contraceptive method, although she did not ask, she could guess it. So when she heard He Dongchuan say this, she immediately thought of the reason why Su Ting was embarrassed.

Cheng Xiaoman said angrily, "Your father is not at home. Let him know that you are fooling around in broad daylight and see if he will spank you."

"Don't tell him, how would he know?" He Dongchuan said, then he remembered and asked, "Mom, you won't tell this to my dad, right?"

"Don't worry, I won't tell him," Cheng Xiaoman said, "but you should be a little more careful while you're at home."

"I know."

After understanding the situation clearly, Cheng Xiaoman felt relieved. She opened the closet, took out an old photo album, and asked He Dongchuan to take it to show Su Ting.

After He Dongchuan got the photo album, he did not leave immediately, but flipped through it from beginning to end. Cheng Xiaoman, who knew what he was thinking, was angry and amused: "Okay, I put away the photos you took when you were one year old a long time ago. They are not here."

As she finished speaking, He Dongchuan also finished flipping through the album. Indeed, he did not see any photos of her naked buttocks. He smiled and said, "Mom, you still understand me."

"I am your biological mother." Cheng Xiaoman hummed, but in her heart she thought, when you are ready to go back, I will give the photo to my daughter-in-law as a farewell gift.

He Dongchuan took the photo album and went out. As soon as he sat down, Su Ting lowered her voice and asked, "What does Mom want to see you for?"

"Looking for the photo album." He Dongchuan said.

Su Ting then noticed what he had in his hand: "Are there any old photos of you in it?"

"Yes, the photos of Dongchuan and Xiaoyan are all there," Cheng Xiaoman, who came out from behind, said with a smile, "By the way, did you take any photos?"

Su Ting shook her head: "No."

In fact, you can buy cameras on the market at that time, Seagull brand, which are small and very convenient for taking pictures.

But buying a camera also requires a ticket, and this ticket is much harder to get than a bicycle ticket. First, it is not one of the three major items like a bicycle, and second, it is not a daily necessity in summer like an electric fan. Even if the unit wants to issue a certificate to reward a model worker, they will not choose a camera ticket.

Therefore, the only way to take photos at this time is to go to a photo studio, but there are only a few photo studios in the whole city of Fuzhou. On weekends, there are long queues in front of the studios, all waiting to have their photos taken.

After Manman was born, He Dongchuan suggested taking the child to take a photo so that they could also take a family portrait, but Su Ting felt that it was not worth waiting for three or four hours just to take a photo, so they never went.

Cheng Xiaoman suggested, "Why don't we take some time these days to take some photos? There's a photo studio in the compound, there aren't many people there, so there won't be a long queue."

Hearing the words "few people", Su Ting had no objection and said, "I'll follow your arrangements."

"Then wait until your father comes back and I'll ask him if he has time before the New Year. If he does, we can go as a family. If he doesn't, we won't take him and we can go together." Cheng Xiaoman said with a smile, "Let Dongchuan take you out for a walk tomorrow and buy you two sets of clothes to wear for taking photos and during the New Year."

Su Ting hurriedly said, "I have clothes, and I bought clothes, but I won't be able to wear them when I return to Pingchuan Island."

But Cheng Xiaoman has a good memory and clearly remembers that she saw the cotton shirt that Su Ting was wearing today when she returned to her hometown last year.

Although the Su family lived a good life locally, they still had two sons who were married and had children. No matter how much the parents loved their daughter, they could not buy all the good things for her.

Even if they don't care about their son, they don't have that many votes, right?

So the cotton jacket that Su Ting wore was made of homespun cloth from the countryside. The material was coarse and the color was dark. Especially after being pressed at the bottom of the box for two years, it had faded, and the material and tailoring were not good at all.

It doesn't suit her at all.

Cheng Xiaoman said: "If you can't wear it, you can wear it when you return to the capital. If you can come back every year just for this dress, I will be very satisfied."

It is of course impossible to come back every year. Although He Dongchuan has vacation every year, it does not mean that he can take vacation every year. The officers stationed on the island should be thankful if they can go back to their hometown once every two or three years.

It’s not certain whether I can get leave to go back to the Su family next summer, let alone come back.

Cheng Xiaoman was of course aware of all this, so she stopped there and quickly finalized the clothes buying matter: "It's settled. I'll get you some tickets later. Tomorrow you can take your wife and Xiaoyan and the others to go shopping in the department store." She said this to He Dongchuan.

The tickets that Cheng Xiaoman mentioned were naturally industrial coupons. These were basically issued locally, and some could not even be used outside the city, so He Dongchuan didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.

After giving instructions, Cheng Xiaoman went into the kitchen to do some work, leaving the couple to continue looking at the photo album.

As soon as Cheng Xiaoman left, Su Ting said, "I really don't need clothes."

"It's okay. Industrial coupons can be used to buy more than just clothes. If you don't like anything tomorrow, you can buy something else." He Dongchuan whispered, "Don't you see? Mom just wants to spend money on us."

His mother was just busy with work and couldn't take more time off, otherwise she would definitely take Su Ting out shopping tomorrow. Now that she had entrusted the matter to him, she didn't mention the money because she knew he wouldn't want it.

As for the possibility that Su Ting didn't like the clothes and bought something else, He Dongchuan thought it was unlikely. Although he didn't like shopping, he knew that the clothes in Capital Department Store were of better quality and had more styles. She loved buying clothes so much, it was impossible for her to dislike any of them.

As long as he could buy one, he would be able to satisfy his mother and would not have to worry at all.

Su Ting didn't know that He Dongchuan had so little confidence in her, so she believed what he said and gave in, saying, "Then let's buy something for our parents tomorrow."

"That's fine." He Dongchuan thought. It looked like he would just have to ask his mom for more tickets at night.

After discussing tomorrow's arrangements, Su Ting lowered her head and opened the photo album.

The first page was a photo of He Dongchuan. He was not very tall in the photo, maybe three or four years old, and his facial features were a replica of He Yan. Su Ting saw it and said, "You looked exactly like Xiao Yan when you were a child."

"He is like me, not me like him." He Dongchuan corrected, how can a father be like his son?

"Yes, yes, Xiaoyan looks like you." Su Ting looked at the photo and asked, "Was this taken outdoors? The background looks like winter?" He Dongchuan's clothes in the photo were so thick that they looked like a ball.

He Dongchuan said: "It was winter, and it seemed that a cultural troupe came to perform, and the photographer from the troupe took the photo for me."

“Looks good.”

Su Ting commented and continued to flip through the pages. The second page was a family photo. Judging from his height, He Dongchuan should be seven or eight years old at the time, wearing a dark blue coat and standing behind his parents.

The third page contained a photo of He Dongchuan and a half-grown child. Su Ting saw it and asked, "Who is this person?"

"A childhood friend of mine went to the Northwest to support construction." He is the one who has a higher IQ and better education than him.

Of course, he would never tell Su Ting these details.

Su Ting didn't ask any further questions and continued flipping through the pages. After looking at a few photos, she realized that this was probably an album dedicated to He Dongchuan's photos. They were either individual photos of him or group photos. Oh, there were also a few photos of He Yan at the back.

After looking through the album, Su Ting took out the photos of He Dongchuan and He Yan and compared them for a while: "I don't think so at ordinary times, but now that I compare them, you two really look alike."

Speaking of this, Su Ting remembered a detail.

In the original novel, after the male protagonist's business became successful, he went to visit a scientific research leader in order to obtain a technology. However, the other party was devoted to scientific research and had no interest in his business at all. He also did not want to see him and asked his family to shut him out.

After returning, the male protagonist was very unwilling, so he asked someone to investigate the boss in detail. He found out about the boss's father from the boss and confirmed that he and the other party had lived in the same military compound. He guessed that his family might know the boss, so he went to the boss's house again in the name of an old friend.

This time he finally met the boss, but he didn't know what the relationship was between his family and the boss, so after meeting him he didn't plan to reminisce about the past, but talked about business directly.

But before he could finish, the boss burst into tears and said, "You look a lot like your father."

Through the boss's narration, the male protagonist learned that the boss was actually a close friend of his father. With this relationship, the two of them naturally reached a smooth cooperation.

When she read it at the time, Su Ting just thought that this was a golden finger that the author gave to the male protagonist, but now thinking about it... She reopened the album, turned to the photo of two little boys and asked: "Is this person called Zhou Zhenming?"

He Dongchuan frowned instantly: "Do you know him?"

really.

Thinking of what He Dongchuan said before, that he had the highest academic degree among his friends, Su Ting: Haha.

He Dongchuan didn't know that Su Ting had discovered his bragging. Seeing that she didn't say anything, he asked, "How do you know him?"

Su Ting came to her senses, shook her head and denied, "I don't know him."

"Then how do you know his name?"

Su Ting realized that she had let something slip, and quickly tried to make up for it, saying, "Didn't I come to the capital with you last year? Maybe I heard about him from someone then. I don't remember the details, but I had a deep impression of him. He seemed to be a child prodigy, and he kept skipping grades when he was in school?"

Although Su Ting's explanation is a bit far-fetched, it is not impossible. Zhou Zhenming has always been someone else's child in the compound. Even now, the parents in the compound are angry about their children's academic performance and would ask angrily: "Look at Zhou Zhenming, he went to college at the age of a teenager. Look at you, are you ashamed to get such a low score?"

When Su Ting was strolling in the compound, she heard people talking about Zhou Zhenming, which was not uncommon.

He Dongchuan said sourly: "How can it be so impressive just by hearing it by chance?"

The reasons for breaking the vinegar jar are so bizarre that it catches people off guard.

In order to appease someone who was jealous, Su Ting had to use all her story-making skills and made up a story: "I didn't pay much attention to it at first, but didn't they talk about you when they were chatting? They said that you and Zhou Zhenming were the two most promising young people in the compound, and that you had a good relationship when you were young. I remembered these things when they were talking just now, so I asked casually, who knew and guessed so accurately?"

Saying that they have a good relationship is a guess based on photos and the attitude of Zhou Zhenming in the original novel. As for saying that they are the two most promising, it is entirely to praise Dongchuan, otherwise this wave of jealousy would not be so easy to get over.

Anyway, He Dongchuan would definitely not admit that he has no future. As for Zhou Zhenming, he was admitted to Capital University when he was in his teens. No one should think that he has no future, right?

As for whether there is a third promising person in the compound, she doesn't know him, so what does it have to do with her?

I have to say that Su Ting hit the jackpot unexpectedly.

Before He Dongchuan joined the army, Zhou Zhenming was the only one in the compound who stood out. All the children of his age were shrouded in his aura of child prodigy.

But when He Dongchuan's rank rose, he became someone else's child. Even with the help of his parents, not many people could become a battalion commander at his age.

Moreover, in order to avoid being accused of relying on his parents, He Dongchuan applied to go to the southwest region after graduating from the military academy, and later joined the navy. He was completely in a different system from his father, so it was not easy for his father to help him.

He Dongchuan rose so fast because he was indeed capable.

He and Zhou Zhenming are indeed the two most promising ones among the younger generation in the compound.

At this point, He Dongchuan finally began to pick up the vinegar jar bit by bit, but he did not stop there. He went on to say, "Although your explanation may be acceptable, I hope you can forget the names of others and just remember me."

Su Ting smiled: "Actually, you are afraid that I will find out. You don't have the highest education among your childhood friends, right?"

He Dongchuan: “…”

After looking at the photo album, Su Ting went upstairs to call the brother and sister.

Although they bought sleeper tickets and there were only four people in a private room, the soundproofing in the room was poor and they could hear everything going on next to them. In addition, the train rumbled all the time, so they didn't get a good rest in the past two days.

When she and He Dongchuan came down from the building in the afternoon, the two children fell asleep and have not shown any signs of waking up since then.

Su Ting didn't care how long they slept, but now that they slept too much, they would definitely not be able to sleep well at night. Besides, it was time for dinner soon, and grandpa and grandma were both there, so she would definitely call the two children downstairs.

After entering the room, Su Ting woke up He Yan first, and then called Man Man.

She gradually became a little grumpy when she woke up, and started crying at the top of her lungs as soon as she was woken up. Su Ting carried her from upstairs to downstairs to coax her, and rocked the rattle round and round to finally coax her into silence.

Hearing the noise outside, Cheng Xiaoman came out of the kitchen again and asked with a smile, "Are you all up?"

"I was called up." Su Ting said.

"Yes, we need to wake him up. He has had enough sleep now, and it is easy to have trouble sleeping at night." Cheng Xiaoman looked up at the clock on the wall of the living room. "Dongchuan's father should be back soon. You all should wash your hands and have dinner right away."

He Dongchuan agreed and took He Yan to wash his hands. After coming out, he took over for Su Ting, and then helped to serve the dishes.

Just as the food was served, there was movement outside. Cheng Xiaoman said, "It must be Dongchuan's father who came back." As she spoke, she took off her apron, picked up the coat draped over the sofa, put it on and walked out.

As soon as they reached the door, a cold wind rushed in through the opened door. Cheng Xiaoman was shocked by the wind and said, "I guessed it was you who came back when I heard the sound. Give me your coat and go wash your hands. The food has been prepared and we are waiting for you to eat."

"Are all the children back?" He Dongchuan's father's deep voice came from the partition at the door.

"They're all back. Let me tell you, Miaomiao is a very smart child. He can already call her grandma."

As they were talking, the couple turned around the partition, and Su Ting finally saw He's father's face clearly.

Although her original body had been to the capital, the memory Su Ting inherited was incomplete. She only vaguely remembered the capital, but she didn't know who she met or what happened.

So before Aunt Wang went to Pingchuan Island, Su Ting didn't know what she looked like or what her personality was like, and the same went for He's father.

After seeing He's father's appearance clearly, Su Ting's first feeling was familiarity. It was not that her memory was awakened, but that the three generations of the He family were too similar. When she saw He's father, she could imagine what He Dongchuan would look like when he was old.

He is a handsome uncle.

And because of the leather shoes incident, Su Ting always thought that He's father would be the kind of loving father who would say "my child is good in every way". But after meeting him, Su Ting discovered that, at least on the surface, He's father's temperament did not quite match the word "loving father".

He looked very serious and had a very domineering aura, which was similar to the image that He Dongchuan presented to the outside world. Well, thinking about how He's father showed off his shoes everywhere, Su Ting felt that this father and son might have the same introverted temperament that was passed down from generation to generation.

Just as I was thinking about it, He's father came out of the bathroom after washing his hands.

Su Ting quickly followed He Dongchuan and shouted, "Dad."

Father He nodded to the two of them, his tone was quite warm: "When did you arrive?"

"I got off the train around 2:00 p.m." said He Dongchuan.

"How was the train? Were you tired?" He's father said, reaching out and touching He Yan's head, with a hint of a smile on his face, "You've grown taller."

After saying that, she looked at Manman in He Dongchuan's arms: "Is this Miaomiao? Do you know Grandpa?"

Perhaps because he thought that grandpa looked a lot like dad, he looked at He Dongchuan slowly, called him dad, then turned to look at He's father and asked in a puzzled tone, "Dad?"

"That's grandpa, not dad," He Dongchuan Zhengzheng said, "I'm your only dad, do you understand?"

Gradually, she didn't quite understand, but she understood the first half of what He Dongchuan said and shouted, "Yeah yeah?"

Just as He's father's brows relaxed, he heard his son say, "It's Grandpa, not Yeye."

"Yeah?"

"Grandpa..."

"That's enough. No matter if it's Grandpa or Yeye, it's enough for me to know that the child is calling me." Father He felt that his son was too nagging, so he reached out to hug him and said, "Come on, Miaomiao, come to Grandpa's arms."

He Dongchuan didn't let go: "Have you ever held a child? Do you know how to hold a child?"

Su Ting gave He Dongchuan a slap from behind and said, "If Dad doesn't know how to do it, can't you just teach him?" Then she took the daughter from her husband's arms, brought her to her father-in-law and said, "Dad, hold her."

"Hey," He's father responded, loosened his frown, hugged his granddaughter, and said to his son disdainfully, "Look at how sensible your wife is, and then look at you!"

He Dongchuan was not afraid of what his father said. He instructed with a serious face: "Hold your buttocks and hold your waist. I told you that you don't know how to hold a baby, but you still don't believe it..."

Seeing that the atmosphere between the father and son was getting tense again, Su Ting opened her mouth to persuade them, but before she could say anything, she was stopped by Cheng Xiaoman: "They have always been like this, don't worry about it." She raised her head and said, "Okay, okay, hurry up and sit down to eat. If you don't eat now, the food will get cold."

Aunt Wang agreed, "Yes, yes, sit down and eat."

With the two of them busying around, a group of people swarmed into the restaurant.

There was a round table in the He family restaurant, with no fixed main seat. He's father carried Cheng Xiaoman and slowly sat in the middle. Cheng Xiaoman sat to his left, and Aunt Wang sat below Cheng Xiaoman.

He Dongchuan sat on the right side of He's father, who was very disgusted with this. However, He Dongchuan said directly: "Give me my daughter, and I will sit opposite you immediately."

"Then I won't be able to see you as soon as I raise my head." said He's father, unwilling to give his granddaughter to his son.

He Dongchuan: "There is nothing I can do about it. I will just sit here."

So the seats were decided, He Dongchuan sat on the right side of He's father, Su Ting sat next to him, and further back was He Yan.

After sitting down, Cheng Xiaoman raised her glass first: "Today is the first time our family has been reunited since Miaomiao was born. Come, let's have a drink."

Everyone raised their wine glasses. Of course, due to his young age, He Yan only got a glass of boiled water, but he also raised the glass in a proper manner.

After the toast, everyone started to eat.

The dinner was not very lively, but it was not silent either. Cheng Xiaoman asked about their situation on Pingchuan Island from time to time, and He's father occasionally asked about He Dongchuan's work.

When talking about work, the father and son became much more serious, and there was no gunpowder in their conversation. However, such harmony did not last long, because Xiao started to cry.

The reason was not that He's father didn't hold the baby well, but that they were all eating and drinking, and she could only watch, which made her feel uncomfortable.

As soon as she felt uncomfortable, she started to cry at the top of her voice, and even pointed at the dishes that He's father had picked and asked for them.

After hearing this, He's father turned his chopsticks and was really ready to let Manman eat the vegetables, but He Dongchuan quickly stopped him and said, "Manman is still young and can't eat vegetables."

He's father said unhappily, "Why can't you eat it? When you were this old, you were raised on vegetable paste."

"I am me, and my daughter is my daughter. Besides, the dish you made is fried with oil. How can it be the same as vegetable paste?" He Dongchuan said with a serious face.

Seeing that the father and son were about to quarrel again, Cheng Xiaoman said, "Okay, give Miaomiao to me, you guys eat, I'll carry her to the living room for a walk." Then she took her granddaughter from her husband's arms.

Su Ting stood up and walked quickly around Cheng Xiaoman and said, "Let me do it."

"No need. You have come all the way back. You must not have eaten well these past two days. Sit down and eat," Cheng Xiaoman said. She was a very practical person. "When you are done, come and take my place."

Others followed suit and Su Ting had no choice but to sit back down at the dining table.

But she felt embarrassed to keep Cheng Xiaoman awake for too long, so she sat down, finished her meal in a few bites, and went to the living room to take Cheng Xiaoman's place.

"You're full so quickly?" Cheng Xiaoman asked in surprise.

Su Ting said: "I don't eat much."

Cheng Xiaoman was worried that she hadn't eaten enough: "I remember you used to have a big appetite?"

"I haven't eaten much in the past two years." Su Ting said, fearing that Cheng Xiaoman would not believe her, "Don't worry, I'm sure I'm full."

"Okay." Cheng Xiaoman handed her granddaughter to Su Ting, looked her up and down, and said implicitly, "You have a small frame, so it doesn't matter if you eat more." She thought Su Ting was deliberately eating less because she wanted to lose weight.

Su Ting: "I'll try my best."

Probably because they heard about He Dongchuan's return, neighbors came to visit one after another after dinner. Most of them were couples, and they all had a good relationship with He's father and mother.

After the greetings, most of the men went to the study to talk with He's father and He Dongchuan, while the women stayed in the living room and were entertained by He's mother, Aunt Wang, with Su Ting sitting next to them and chatting with them.

But the most popular people during this period were the two children. Needless to say, He Yan grew up in front of them. He Yan had not been back for nearly two years since he went to Pingchuan Island. Now that he is back, everyone can't help but care about how he has been doing in the past two years.

He Yan talked about some things that happened on the island, such as climbing trees to dig out bird nests and catching crabs in the water. Finally, he did not forget to publicize the fact that he ranked first in the grade in the final exam.

Cheng Xiaoman was on the side, cooperating with him: "When this child left the capital, he was still studying in the seedling class. As a result, when he arrived in Fujian, his father sent him directly to elementary school. At that time, the second semester of the first grade had already started for a month or two. When I heard the news, I was very worried. I thought to myself, Dongchuan usually looks stable, how could he be so reckless in this matter."

At this point Cheng Xiaoman paused, and someone couldn't wait and asked hurriedly: "And then?"

"Then in the first final exam, he really ranked last. I was worried at the time, afraid that Xiaoyan would be hit and lose his enthusiasm for learning," Cheng Xiaoman said while grabbing Su Ting's hand. "Fortunately, Xiao Su is very good at teaching children. He spent more than two months tutoring Xiaoyan. By the end of the semester, Xiaoyan's grades had improved. From the second grade to now, he has always been the top student in the grade."

Seeing He Yan stretching his neck, the words "What about me, what about me" were about to come out, Su Ting praised him, "It's mainly because Xiao Yan is smart, he can do it once you teach him."

He Yan was satisfied and sat back calmly.

Others did not notice the communication between the mother and son, and said with a smile: "Don't be modest. If you don't teach well, it will be useless no matter how smart Xiaoyan is."

I was puzzled in my heart. When I first heard that He Dongchuan was going to remarry a country girl, no one in the compound was optimistic.

Although these families are all of humble origins, after staying in the capital for too long, they are inevitably influenced by the thinking of the common people and look down on outsiders.

This "outside places" does not specifically refer to the countryside, but includes people from all places outside the capital.

Unexpectedly, although Su Ting looks weak, she is actually very capable. Not only does she have a harmonious relationship with her husband, but she also gets along well with her stepson.

After praising the mother and son, the topic shifted from He Yan to Man Man.

Although Man Man has a round face, she has a pointed chin, her skin is fair, tender and smooth, her eyes are big and bright, and her nose is high, making her a hallmark among children of the same age.

Moreover, she is not afraid of strangers. As long as she is well fed and has enough water, she will be happy no matter who holds her. She is very likable.

No one can resist the charm of the cute baby, and the people sitting in the living room are no exception. So during the chat, she has gradually become the focus, and everyone wants to hug her and talk to her.

Even when leaving, they would hug each other and walk slowly.

When the crowd dispersed, it was late at night. Everyone had been busy all day and no one continued talking. After all, Su Ting and the others could stay in the capital for more than ten days, so they could talk at any time.

So after washing up, everyone went back to their own rooms and slowly went to sleep with Su Ting and the others, but Cheng Xiaoman carried her back to her room, and the reason Cheng Xiaoman gave was very legitimate, she was afraid of disturbing their sleep.

People who have something to hide will feel guilty no matter what they hear. Su Ting is like this now.

After lying on the bed, Su Ting was still thinking about what Cheng Xiaoman said. He Dongchuan hugged her and asked, "What do you mean by what mom said?"

"What?"

"She said she was afraid of disturbing our sleep. What does that mean?"

"That's what it means. Mom probably thought we must be tired after sitting in the car for almost two days, and she was afraid that she would cry at night, so she took her to her room to sleep."

"But we slept for two hours in the afternoon." Su Ting guessed something and sat up and asked, "Does mom know what we did in the afternoon? By the way, did you take out the trash? Did mom not see it?"

"It fell down, and no one saw it," He Dongchuan coaxed his wife, "Don't worry, our house is well soundproofed, and Mom definitely doesn't know what we did in the afternoon. Well, she might have some guesses about what we're going to do in the evening."

"What are we going to do tonight?" Su Ting asked him sideways, "I tell you, I'm going to sleep tonight."

"Don't worry, I will definitely let you sleep. But you see, Mom has given us her space, and we do nothing for her. We will be so sorry for her kindness." He Dongchuan said, his hands moving in a naughty manner.

After listening to his twisted and heretical arguments, Su Ting said unhappily, "You are the only one who is right."

He Dongchuan said arrogantly: "I think I am right." Then he opened the bedside cabinet and took out a condom.

Su Ting, who witnessed all his actions, said: "...When did you put the condom in here?"

"After you go downstairs," He Dongchuan explained, "it will be convenient to take it."

Su Ting turned her head to look at the bedside cabinet, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and reminded: "Is this all?"

“That’s all we have left at home.”

Su Ting said in a long voice: "Are you sure you don't want to use it sparingly?"

He Dongchuan thought that it was because he came to the capital that he needed to use it. Anyway, his mother worked in a hospital, so getting a condom was just a piece of cake.

I believe that given his mother's awareness, she wouldn't mind helping her poor son.

It's just that it's inconvenient to mail them, otherwise he would definitely ask his mother to go to the hospital to pick them up every now and then and have them mailed to him. If this were really possible, he wouldn't have to worry about condoms in the future.

Of course, he just thought about it and it was impossible for him to put it into practice. Otherwise, if he was unlucky, he would be caught in an inspection and once he opened it, he would find that it was full of scams. If it got out of hand, it might even make the front page of the newspaper.

Although He Dongchuan is always thick-skinned in front of Su Ting, he still has to save face outside. He can only take advantage of the New Year period to use his position more often.

Thinking of this, He Dongchuan answered frankly: "I can't save it, and I don't want to save it."

Su Ting, not knowing what He Dongchuan was thinking, thought that they only had the few sets in the drawer left. She snorted and relaxed her guard half-heartedly.

Just use it, you will be suffocated after watching it for ten days!
