Su Xieqiu came back from the city and went back home first.
After taking some supplies from the space and putting them in the storage room, I went to Sun Dahan’s house to pick up Chenchen and Anan.
Now that work is over, Ertao and Linglan are taking Chenchen and Anan to play in the yard.
"Auntie..." When An An saw her, he quickly dropped the toys in his hand and rushed towards her, with a hint of grievance in his voice.
Chenchen followed behind his sister and shouted happily, "Auntie Su, you're back?"
Su Xieqiu held the two of them in his arms, "Well, Auntie is back."
As he said this, he took out a handful of candy from his pocket, gave two pieces to each of the children, and gave the extra two to Lily of the Valley.
Wang Fengqin was cooking in the kitchen. When she heard her voice, she came out with a smile.
"Zhenyu's wife, the captain asked me to tell you that there is a package for you today. I want you to go to the brigade headquarters to pick it up this afternoon."
Su Xieqiu was a little surprised. Who would send her a package? Could it be from Chenchen and Anan's uncle?
But he had only been gone for a short time, so how come he sent something over?
"I understand, sister-in-law."
She handed the clothes in her hand to Wang Fengqin, "Sister-in-law, these are my old clothes. Please modify them for Linglan."
"Oh, why so many?" Wang Fengqin watched her pick up two shirts and two pairs of trousers. They didn't look too old, with only two or three small patches on them.
I think she is so generous. How could she be willing to give away such nice clothes?
Su Xieqiu smiled and said, "These are the clothes I wore two years ago. They are a little small now and it's hard to alter them. I'll give them to Linglan."
Wang Fengqin thought about it and accepted it. After dealing with them for some time, she also knew Su Xieqiu's temper. Since he had taken it, he must give it with sincerity.
Linglan looked at the clothes with joy in her eyes and whispered, "Auntie, thank you."
"You're welcome." Su Xieqiu smiled and touched her head, "Auntie also wants to thank you for helping me take care of Chenchen and An'an."
"They are both very well behaved. They don't cry or make a fuss. They just play in the yard by themselves and don't disturb me while I'm working. An'an took a nap in the morning and Chenchen even helped me get firewood."
Su Xieqiu felt uncomfortable after hearing this. An An was young and seemed to understand nothing at all. She had almost forgotten what happened.
But Chenchen is different. He has grown up and knows that he is now living under someone else's roof. He is very careful in everything he does. It is heartbreaking to see such a sensible child of such a young age.
She smiled and said to Linglan: "You are all good children. I am relieved that Chenchen and An'an are following you."
Linglan blushed at the compliment and said with a smile, "Aunt, if you go out in the future, please send Chenchen and An'an here and I will help you look after them."
"Okay, thank you first."
Su Xieqiu held the two children and said to Wang Fengqin, "Sister-in-law, let's go."
"Just eat here. I've cooked your meal with the sauerkraut and pancakes."
Wang Fengqin's words were not empty talk. She didn't know when Su Xieqiu would come back. She did cook for the two children.
"No, sister-in-law, I had already prepared the dishes when I came back just now. I'll just go back and fry them."
Su Xieqiu smiled and refused. Others were being polite, but she couldn't be tactful.
Nowadays, food rations are rationed, and you have to bring food when visiting relatives. How can you just eat at someone else's house?
When Wang Fengqin sent her out, she whispered, "Daughter-in-law Zhenyu, there is something I should tell you.
It's your cousin who just arrived. Today she is assigned to work with your stepmother-in-law and sisters-in-law.
They were very busy all morning, chatting animatedly. Before leaving work, your mother-in-law even helped your cousin with some work, and many people saw it.
Su Xieqiu smiled and nodded, "I understand, sister-in-law, thank you for telling me this."
In fact, she didn't care much. As the old saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Those people with similar interests will get together sooner or later.
But how they get along is none of her business. As long as they don't cause trouble for her, everyone will be fine.
Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. She is not afraid of fighting or scolding.
Su Xieqiu brought the two children back home. He first gave some snacks to Chenchen and Anan, and then went to the backyard to pick some vegetables.
"Auntie, let me help you light the fire." Chenchen took An An to sit in front of the stove and took out matches from the small hole next to the stove.
Su Xieqiu smiled and patted his head. "You don't have to cook. Take An An to the yard to play. Aunt Su will make delicious food for you today."
She had just taken three boxes of instant noodles from the space. The boxes had been opened and she was going to destroy the boxes when making a fire, so she had to send the two little ones away.
The instant noodles had a strong aroma. Before they even came out of the pot, Chenchen and Anan were already lying at the kitchen door drooling.
Three boxes of chicken soup beef noodles, a handful of vegetables, and then three poached eggs, cooking half a pot.
Fortunately, this instant noodle was not bent, otherwise she would not dare to take it out.
Chenchen asked, "Aunt Su, what did you cook? Why does it smell so good?"
"Cooked noodles." Su Xieqiu looked at the two greedy little cats at the door and said with a smile, "Come in, we'll be eating soon."
Chenchen immediately pulled his sister into the kitchen. He would only act like a child in front of delicious food.
Su Xieqiu served them a bowl each and said, "Eat quickly. I'll take you to the village to play in the afternoon."
When she came back just now, she saw a lot of children running around in the village.
I just wanted to let Chenchen play with them, so that the child wouldn't be stuck at home all day, thinking about all kinds of things, which would lead to health problems.
"Auntie Su, we can just play at home, and this way we can help you with some work."
Chenchen still remembered what his uncle said when he left. He thought for a moment and then whispered, "Aunt Su, if the villagers knew my sister and I's identities, it would implicate you and Uncle Han."
Su Xieqiu didn't expect that he would think so much at such a young age. He was too worried. If he continued like this, he would be crushed.
"Chenchen, no one here knows your and An'an's identities, and your uncle Han and I won't tell anyone."
"To the outside world, you are the children of your Uncle Han and me. You can live freely here. If anyone bullies you, fight back bravely. Don't be afraid. Your Uncle Han and I will take care of everything."
This is not the first time Su Xieqiu has said this, but Chenchen is a child who cares too much.
She was afraid that he would have psychological problems in the future, so she often used these words to comfort and encourage him.
Chenchen lowered his head and tears fell into the bowl.
After a long while, he hummed, "I see, Aunt Su, thank you and Uncle Han."
An An was sitting there eating happily and didn't notice anything unusual about her brother at all.
Su Xieqiu served her half a bowl, and the little girl finished it in no time, even drinking up all the soup in the bowl.
"Auntie, eat...An An, eat..."
Su Xieqiu didn't dare to let her eat so much, for fear of making her feel bloated.
But the little girl insisted on having it, so I had to pick out a few noodles and crush them for her, and let her eat them slowly.
