Chapter 566 So Afraid of Aunt Lu
When her grandchildren came back today, she specially bought a few pounds of pork in town, thinking of having her grandchildren stay for dinner.
Since her baby hasn't been around for the past two weeks, she hasn't called any of her grandchildren over for extra meals.
The group of children were overjoyed to hear this, as they were going to be able to eat meat to their hearts' content!
Even Yuanbao, who was being carried on Da Ni's back, knew that he could eat meat at his grandma's house. He opened his little mouth, which hadn't grown in all its teeth yet, and made "ah ah" noises, drooling as he did so.
"Alright, I'll head back now." Jiang Manyun reached out and ruffled her son's hair.
This brat has been inseparable from my darling for almost half a month in the capital, and he still can't bear to be apart from her.
Then he pulled his suitcase and left to go home.
Ma Xiulian also lifted Guaibao's duffel bag off the sled, and noticed two more bags tied to the outside. She muttered in confusion, "What are these?"
The little one, with sharp ears, heard this and said in a childish voice, "This is a gift from Aunt Jiang to my second brother and third sister!"
"What gift? What gift?" Chen Erbao rushed over as soon as he heard there was a gift.
Helian Jiao emptied the contents of the bag, which immediately made a "whoosh" sound because it was full of tin toys.
The sight of Liberation trucks, submachine guns, airplanes, trains, and even mice and frogs captivated a group of boys.
The other bag contained several blonde, blue-eyed dolls that the girls couldn't take their eyes off at first glance.
The children were ecstatic. The boys grabbed their new toys and started playing on the floor, while the girls clung to their dolls, completely captivated.
Ma Xiulian thought to herself: "Manyun has spent money again."
Seeing how happy they were to receive the gifts, Helian Jiao raised her little head and looked at Ma Xiulian, saying, "I also bought gifts for Grandpa, Grandma and Dad. Aunt Jiang said you would definitely like them! But they're not easy to carry, so I'm sending them by mail. They won't arrive for a few more days."
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiulian was deeply moved: "Grandma, don't worry, I'll love whatever you buy, my darling!"
My darling is so young, yet she is already so filial and thoughtful, always remembering to bring them gifts when she goes out to play.
However, he didn't ask where the money for the gift came from, because before leaving, Chen Jianjun gave Jiang Manyun one hundred yuan.
After deducting the round-trip transportation costs, there's still a considerable amount of money left for my child as pocket money.
A group of children were playing in the yard, so Ma Xiulian went to prepare dinner, washing rice and vegetables.
In the evening, Chen Dazhu returned first, holding his little granddaughter affectionately: "Our darling is finally back!"
With his beloved child away, he always felt like something was missing, and even smoking his pipe felt uninspiring.
"Grandpa!" Helian Jiao called out in a soft, sweet voice.
Chen Dazhu grinned and cheerfully replied, "Hey!"
After holding her for a while, he put her down so she could continue playing with the other children, and went to the kitchen to help his wife tend the fire.
A short while later, Chen Jianjun also returned from get off work, with Lu Xiaofen by his side.
When Chen Erbao saw her from afar, instead of greeting her sweetly as he had the first time, he subconsciously shrank back and immediately hid behind the crowd.
Helian Jiao asked, puzzled, "Why is Second Brother so afraid of Aunt Lu?"
Sanni explained, "Aunt Lu will be teaching at our school next semester and will teach us to read and write."
Chen Erbao, who is fearless, is most afraid of being disciplined by his teacher.
She's even more afraid of being beaten by her grandparents and her mother than by them!
