Li Hanting stood up. "An'an and Yuanyuan, why don't you stay at the old house and play with your grandparents? Dad will come pick you up this afternoon, okay?"
"good."
The two children agreed in unison that they would be happy to stay with their grandparents as long as it didn't take place overnight.
"Mom and Dad, I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."
Chen Shufang waved her hand, "Go quickly."
Li Hanting drove the car to the store entrance, got out, and went inside.
Dong Qin nudged Su Jingjing's arm. "Little sister, your brother-in-law is here."
Su Jingjing subconsciously raised her head, a smile appearing on her face.
"You've arrived so quickly. Are An'an and Yuanyuan still at the old house?"
Li Hanting stared intently at her. "I'll go down and pick them up."
"Wife, is there anything I can do for you?"
"No need." Su Jingjing shook her head, looking at the man with heartache. "Why don't you go back and rest for a while?"
Li Hanting lowered his head to meet her gaze, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Wife, wherever you are, I'll be there."
Su Jingjing pursed her lips, and her cheeks instantly flushed with a rosy blush.
I'm afraid you'll get bored.
Dong Qin looked at the young couple ahead and said, "Little sister, why don't you go for a walk with your brother-in-law? There are a few of us here."
The other three quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, we're here too, we don't need you."
Su Jingjing awkwardly raised her head, "Sister-in-law, when the people from the lumber shop come over, I..."
Dong Qin interrupted her, "Don't worry, sister-in-law knows what to do, go quickly."
Su Jingjing took a deep breath, put down what she was holding, and said, "Sister-in-law, then I'll trouble you."
"No trouble at all."
Under the joyful gazes of the people behind them, Su Jingjing and the man walked out the door hand in hand.
"Jingjing's husband looks like he's going to do great things. Do they have children?"
This question was directed at Dong Qin.
Dong Qin kept moving her feet on the sewing machine, and lifted her eyelids to look at the other person.
"Sister Xia, they have two children, a boy and a girl, who are almost five years old."
The person called Sister Xia is a bit more straightforward.
The three of them gasped. Sister Xia exclaimed, "It's unbelievable! She looks so young. What does her husband do?"
Dong Qin didn't elaborate, "My brother-in-law is in the army."
Sister Hui interjected enviously, "No wonder, being a soldier is so popular these days."
Dong Qin just smiled and didn't continue the conversation. She wasn't stupid; she wouldn't tell everyone everything.
As the saying goes, you can know a person's face but not their heart; what seems good now may not be good in the future.
Su Jingjing and her companion walked along the bustling street, smiles blooming on their faces.
She turned to look at the man and said, "It seems like we haven't really gone out for a proper stroll in ages."
She always takes her child out, and she focuses most of her energy on her child.
Li Hanting brushed the strands of hair that had blown across his face behind his ear, his voice tinged with laughter, "Wife, from now on, whenever you want, we can leave the child with Mom and Dad."
Su Jingjing shrank back slightly, glanced around furtively, and puffed out her cheeks. "We're on the street, we still need to be careful."
Isn't it said that men and women shouldn't be too intimate?
“Okay.” Li Hanting’s voice was deep and had a seductive quality that seemed to tug at one’s heartstrings.
"Wife, shall we go in and take a look?"
Su Jingjing asked instinctively, "What are you looking at?"
Following the man's gaze, they saw a jewelry store just a few steps away.
She used to like wearing jewelry, but now her neck and hands are bare.
Seeing the longing in her eyes, Li Hanting gripped her hand and led her inside.
The jewelry store was not large, but it was luxuriously decorated and brightly lit, with only a handful of people browsing the jewelry inside.
Just then, a young woman saw them enter and immediately came forward, greeting them with a smile, "What would you two like to buy?"
Su Jingjing returned a friendly smile, "We're just looking around."
She doesn't like having someone follow behind and introduce her.
The employee understood what she meant and took a step back.
Su Jingjing took the man's arm and began to read intently.
There are all kinds of styles of silver and gold jewelry.
However, more people buy silver jewelry because it looks elegant and is also inexpensive.
Gold jewelry is not only expensive, but also outdated.
Ordinary workers earn less than thirty yuan a month, and the price of gold at fifty yuan per gram almost made them give up.
But they had no idea how valuable gold would be in the coming decades.
Li Hanting raised an eyebrow. "Wife, do you want to buy gold?"
Su Jingjing looked up. "How did you know?"
Was she making it that obvious?
Since she can't afford a house now, buying some gold might be a good option, as it could appreciate in value in the future.
She coughed lightly and whispered in the man's ear, "I really want to buy it, but the price is a bit high."
They had just finished renovating their shop and had spent a significant portion of their savings.
"Buy it if you like it."
"Hehe! You're so nice."
If Su Jingjing hadn't been considering that there were other people around, she really would have wanted to hug the man and kiss him directly.
She took a fancy to a gold necklace weighing about seven grams, and also a silver necklace.
The silver chain can be worn casually, while the gold necklace can be kept as a collectible.
Wearing the silver necklace made her neck appear even longer.
It must be said that, apart from being a little chubby, the original owner had really great natural features.
Is it pretty?
She turned around and asked the man impatiently.
Li Hanting tapped her nose and said affectionately, "My wife looks good in anything."
The sales assistant complimented, "Miss, this necklace is a new style in our store. You have excellent taste."
Su Jingjing carefully took it off and handed it to her, saying, "Please wrap it up for me."
"Okay."
The shop assistant was stunned for a moment; she had never encountered such a straightforward customer before.
After leaving the jewelry store, the two returned to their rented apartment.
Yan Ling was holding Xiao Guodong in the yard as he was learning to walk. Hearing the noise at the door, she subconsciously looked up and said, "You're back."
"Mom is helping Guodong learn to walk." Su Jingjing placed the things she bought on the table.
Yan Ling joked, "Yes, this child can't even walk yet, but he wants to run."
If she hadn't been holding on tightly with both hands, she might have run all over the yard.
When Xiao Guodong saw his aunt, he was so excited that he jumped up and down, waved his hand, and kept humming.
Su Jingjing stepped forward, picked him up, and kissed his cheek. "Little Guodong, did you miss your aunt?"
Little Guodong also kissed her on the cheek in a very similar manner, and kept giggling.
Li Hanting immediately became jealous, and with a dark face, he picked him up and carried him away.
Su Jingjing didn't react for a moment, "A-Ting, what's wrong?"
She hadn't hugged him enough yet.
Li Hanting was too embarrassed to admit that he was jealous of a baby a few months old.
He said in a serious tone, "He wants me to hug him."
Yeah?
Su Jingjing wasn't quite convinced; she couldn't tell that Guodong wanted him to hug him.
Xiao Guodong, wearing a little yellow hat, looked at his uncle with wide eyes, then suddenly pouted and started to cry.
