Tongtong, who has been living in her small building for the past few years, just got off work today and saw Mingjie and her standing at their door carrying things.
"Mingjie? Tongtong? Why are you here?"
Mingjie laughed heartily and said, "I'll show Tongtong to you. Sister-in-law, Brother Deng must have forgotten to tell you about us."
"You two?" Ying Han was startled and looked at Tongtong's shy cheeks, as if he understood something.
"Tongtong and I had our wedding last year."
"Sister Ying."
"Oh, congratulations, Deng Chen too, for not notifying me of such a big thing."
"Last year, when it was busy, it was also winter, when Brother Chen came back."
"No wonder, come into the house quickly."
Ying Han invited them in, only to find out that Tongtong was no longer at the small building.
"Sister Ying, because that place is being demolished, I wanted to vacate the space for you guys early.
After Mingjie and I got married, we bought a shop outside our neighborhood. Business there is pretty good.”
"Where do you live now?"
"The Qinghai Villa in the North Ring Road."
"That's great! I never thought that you two would get together. It's incredible."
Ying Han smiled, and the two of them also smiled shyly.
At first, Mingjie wanted to help this poor girl, but as time went by, they fell in love with each other, and slowly, the two of them naturally came together.
After all, Mingjie is several years older than Tongtong, and he was hesitant at first, but in the end, Tongtong boldly said that she didn't mind the age.
Mingjie's parents are old. His father passed away years ago, and his mother lives with his eldest brother.
He doesn't care too much about who he marries, as long as the girl has good character.
They wanted their son to get married quickly. After all, he was so old, and if he delayed any longer, he would become a bachelor.
After the two got married, his mother would stay with her eldest son from time to time, and visit her youngest son from time to time, enjoying the blessings of her children and grandchildren.
If Tongtong hadn't come here, she would have forgotten what happened in Xiaolou.
When she talked about this with Deng Chen in the evening, Deng Chen told her not to worry.
"The old shoe factory over there is still making trouble. By the time they have reached an agreement, the residents here will have almost finished their business. The residents will get more than the shoe factory, and it's all based on area."
"Mom, where do we have another house?" An An and Bai Yu seemed to know little about the small building.
She rarely took them there.
"That's where mom and dad met. Your dad and I got engaged there. How about this, this Sunday, mom will take you there to see it."
"Great, is this where mom and dad fall in love?"
"...Ahem, yes."
The two children are now entering adolescence and understand some things.
After Ying Han said this, the two men's sly smiles made Deng Chen want to punch them one by one.
"How's school been lately? Any exams?"
"Yes, Dad." When An An heard that his father wanted to check their studies, he quickly took out the monthly test papers handed out today and said, "Dad, look, I got 100 points in English and 98 points in math."
"No language?"
"I haven't taken the Chinese language test yet."
"Where's Bai Yu?"
Bai Yu slowly took out his three subject papers and gave them to his parents.
"What's so interesting about it? The questions are too easy. I can figure them out at a glance."
"Too easy?"
Ying Han was still worried that they had just returned and were not adapting well.
Moreover, when she was in HL, she and Deng Chen would teach math and Chinese outside of class from time to time.
There is no professional teacher at all.
After I come back, I will probably be at the bottom of the list in these two subjects.
I didn’t expect that the two children were so good and did so well in the exam.
"Mom, the teacher looks at me now as if I've found a treasure. I'm the darling of our class."
"No pride allowed."
Deng Chen looked at Bai Yu's raised neck and proud expression, and scolded him coldly.
Bai Yu immediately sat up straight.
"Dad, I will be humble. I'm just happy about my test."
Ying Han pushed him aside and said, "The child got good grades. Don't be so harsh on him."
After Deng Chen finished speaking, he turned around and said to the two children, "Your father's stern tone is for your own good. No matter what you do, you must be humble and low-key."
"I know, Mom."
"Okay, let's eat."
Ying Han and Deng Chen looked at the two children and couldn't help feeling emotional. In the blink of an eye, they had entered middle age.
Ying Han turned and smiled faintly at Deng Chen, just as bright and beautiful as before.
Deng Chen was thinking, maybe it was this smile that made him obsessed for his whole life.
