The two of them stayed in the car for a while, and only went in together after Su Nan put on her makeup.
It was Su Yang who opened the door. As soon as he saw Zhou Rang, he called out sweetly, "Brother-in-law."
"It's only been half a month since I last saw you, and I feel like Yangyang has grown a lot taller." Zhou Rang compared the two of their heights and found that the child, who was only as tall as his chest when they first met, has now reached his chin. Moreover, he is still young and has the potential to grow taller.
"Children grow every day. Are you envious, old uncle?" Su Nan gave him a teasing look and chuckled while covering her lips.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Xiao Zhou is only in his teens and he's already an uncle. Then what is your dad? An old grandfather?" Lin Yuemei came out from the living room and glared at the funny Su Nan in annoyance.
The latter playfully stuck out her tongue, quickly ran behind Su Qiangguo who was sitting on the sofa, put her hands on his shoulders, and said sarcastically: "Come, let me massage your shoulders. This old man needs to be served."
"Wow, an old man gets such treatment." Su Qiangguo shrank his neck as if he was flattered.
"It's... only you can enjoy this kind of treatment. Others want it, but I won't give it to them." Su Nan pinched his shoulders for a while, then went upstairs on the pretext of getting Zhou Rang's coat, came down with a thick coat, and after Zhou Rang put it on, he went into the kitchen.
"This kid." Su Qiangguo shook his head with a smile and didn't take it to heart.
"Hello, Auntie, Uncle. Are you used to living at home?" Zhou Rang moved the box behind the sofa and only then had the chance to say hello.
"Everything is fine, except the weather in the north. It's too dry and cold, and we're not used to it yet." Su Qiangguo waved his hand and pointed outside the window where the cold wind was blowing.
"You can put a few basins of water in the room so it won't be so dry. It's not the coldest yet. After a while, it will probably snow knee-deep, making it difficult to go out." Zhou Rang said as he took out two small basins from the storage room, filled them with water in the kitchen, and placed them in the corner of the room.
"Knee-deep?" Su Yang's eyes widened, and he exclaimed in surprise. Southern children were extremely curious about snow, and they kept pestering Zhou Rang with questions.
"Yes, there will be special people going out to the streets to clear the snow, and the children in every household will make snowmen and have snowball fights in front of their doors..." Zhou Rang put his arm around Su Yang's shoulders and recalled his childhood with some emotion.
"That sounds great. Can we stay here until it snows heavily?" Su Yang looked at Zhou Rang eagerly.
"Probably not. If it snows, the roads will probably be closed, and we won't be able to return to Shanghai." How will he prepare for the wedding then? So there is absolutely no way he can stay in Beijing this year.
"Okay then." Su Yang sighed regretfully. Seeing Su Nan coming out of the kitchen with a bowl of porridge, he hurriedly urged Zhou Rang: "Brother-in-law, please have breakfast quickly. We still have to go to the Forbidden City to play later."
"Okay." Zhou Rang nodded, then walked towards the dining table.
"There are also fried dough sticks and eggs." Lin Yuemei came out of the kitchen with a plate, put it on the dining table, and prepared to sit back on the sofa.
"Thank you, Nannan, thank you, Auntie."
"What are you thanking me for? Just eat." Lin Yuemei gave some instructions and turned to leave.
Su Nan sat at the dining table opposite Zhou Rang, cupping her little face with her hands, staring at him without blinking as he ate breakfast, her eyes curved. From time to time, she would hand him a tissue or something. The two of them looked so sweet.
All of this was seen by the others, and the corners of their lips couldn't help but curl up slightly, looking at the others with a look of satisfaction.
"Have you finished eating?" Su Nan was a little surprised when he saw Zhou Rang finish all the food in the bowl and plate without leaving any. The amount was much more than he usually ate.
"The breakfast my mother-in-law made is delicious. How can I not finish it?" Zhou Rang said in a low voice.
Su Nan instantly understood the meaning, covered her lips and smiled, then lowered her voice and said, "Why bother? My mother won't blame you if you don't finish it."
"It's shameful to waste food." Zhou Rang also smiled and took the bowls and plates on the dining table to the kitchen to wash them.
"The water is so cold." Su Nan leaned against the kitchen door, looking at Zhou Rang's red hands from the cold, feeling a little distressed.
"There's no time to boil water for washing. Hurry up and finish washing. Let's go to the Forbidden City to see the beautiful scenery. You have been in Beijing for so long, haven't you learned from me?" Zhou Rang smiled and didn't take the cold water seriously.
Hearing this, Su Nan shook her head: "I haven't done it before. I'm going to save my first time for you and my family. It will be more fun." She had no idea how many times she had done it in her previous life. She was no longer looking forward to it as much as before.
But I am still curious about the products of this era, and wonder if there will be a big difference between now and in the future.
"It's my honor." Zhou Rang turned his head and smiled at her, then quickened his movements.
After washing the dishes, Su Nan asked everyone to pack their belongings and prepared to drive to the Forbidden City.
After finding a parking space near the Forbidden City, the five of them walked inside. After buying tickets and entering, they realized the wisdom of their ancestors. Every building was full of historical flavor and exquisiteness, which made people feel awe.
At that time, there were not as many people and tourists as in later generations, so the Forbidden City seemed even bigger. Walking on each stone brick was like feeling the path that the predecessors had walked.
The Forbidden City is very large. They walked around for a long time and their legs were sore, but they were reluctant to miss any corner that could be visited. However, since many places were not open yet, they had to leave after visiting all the attractions.
"That's great. I'll come again next time." Su Qiangguo touched the booklet he bought from the memorial hall and said with reluctance twice.
"That's right. This was where the emperor lived before. How could it be bad?" Lin Yuemei also raised her hand to support the jade hairpin in her hair. This was bought for her by her son-in-law at a high price. She couldn't let it fall.
"Next time we come here in the summer, we will definitely have a different experience." Su Nan also wore a jade hairpin on her head, with her long hair tied up behind her head, giving her a gentle and jade-like temperament.
"I'm coming in the summer too, sister. Look at my seal. Isn't it very domineering?" Su Yang handed a dark blue box to Su Nan, showing it off proudly. He had spent a long time choosing before he chose the "Su" seal.
"Wow, the workmanship is really exquisite, look." Su Nan took out the seal from the box, looked at it carefully, and then handed it to Zhou Rang.
Zhou Rang took it, looked at it, and returned it to Su Yang: "It's good. If you like it, do you want to go back and buy another one?"
"No need. I'm too lazy to run back." Su Nan shook her head, staring at the brooch on Zhou Rang's chest and the "palace cake" in his hand. Then she touched the hairpin on her head and seemed to remember something.
He glanced at Su Yang who was walking in front of him, then leaned over to whisper in Zhou Rang's ear, "Su Yang seemed to be..."
