Everyone ate their fill and left satisfied.
The wind was cool in the yard at night, and the family gathered together to chat.
Su Xiang had drunk some wine, and his face looked slightly tipsy.
“Daughter, your business is growing bigger and bigger, but Dad still has to say something: no matter how successful you are in the future, you must not forget your original intentions.”
He knew his daughter's personality very well, having raised her from a young age, and was just afraid that it was just a passing fancy.
"Dad, I won't."
Su Jingjing understood her father's worries; perhaps the trouble caused by the original owner of the body had left too deep an impression on him.
Yan Ling patted Lao Su's arm, "Our daughter is so sensible now, all the neighbors are praising her."
Turning his head to Su Jingjing, he said, "Daughter, your dad is drunk and talking nonsense."
"I'm not drunk."
Su Xiang had a stern face.
"Alright, alright, you're not drunk. Let me take you inside to rest."
Yan Ling only regarded him as an old child. Old Su's alcohol tolerance was indeed not very good; he would easily turn red after drinking a little alcohol.
To save money, he rarely drinks alcohol when he's in the countryside.
"Jingjing, Hanting, your sister-in-law and I have gone inside to coax Guodong to sleep."
Su Dashan stood up, holding his son, with Dong Qin standing beside him.
Su Jingjing nodded and watched them go inside.
The moon is exceptionally round tonight, and the entire courtyard is bathed in light.
An'an and Yuanyuan were playing and frolicking in the yard.
Su Jingjing looked at them with a smile, then looked up at the man, "Ah Ting, you don't seem to be saying much today."
Although he is usually quiet, he seemed a bit unusual today.
Li Hanting tightened his grip on her waist, his dark eyes fixed on her. "Wife, how many times have you met Xie Zheng?"
"This is our second meeting. What's wrong?"
Su Jingjing didn't understand why he asked that.
Li Hanting's words sounded somewhat cold and hard, "If he does business with you in the future, will you still have to meet with him?"
"Of course, I can't just not show up."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Jingjing immediately realized, "Are you jealous again?"
"Hmm...no, it's just that I don't like the way he looks at you."
"The way he looked at me..." Su Jingjing muttered, "wasn't it pretty normal?"
She didn't notice these details at all; she was only thinking about business.
"I can't be wrong, he must have feelings for you."
Li Hanting was glad that his wife was a bit absent-minded.
While the children were drawing circles with their heads down, Su Jingjing hugged his neck tightly. "Then I'll definitely keep my distance from him from now on. Don't frown, okay? You're almost an old man."
She gently stroked his brow as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, Li Hanting frowned even more deeply.
He was already a few years older than his wife.
"Wife, then give me a kiss."
"Here? Shall we kiss again in the room?"
Su Jingjing blinked her big eyes at him.
Her image was reflected in the man's eyes. She steeled herself and quickly kissed the corner of his mouth.
"Is that okay?"
"good."
Li Hanting dared not make any more excessive demands.
"Mom, I'm sleepy."
Yuanyuan ran over with her short legs and gave a delicate yawn.
"Then let's go back to our rooms and sleep."
Su Jingjing beckoned An'an over and took one of her hands in each.
The children will sleep with them tonight.
The next morning, Li Hanting drove back to his unit.
Su Jingjing woke up just as dawn broke because she had gone to bed early the night before.
Wearing slippers, she leaned over the kitchen doorway and asked, "Mom, what's for breakfast?"
Yan Ling stopped what she was doing. "You woke up so early. Why didn't you sleep a little longer?"
"I've had enough sleep." Su Jingjing looked down at the cutting board, where rows of rolled-out dumpling wrappers were laid out. "Why did you suddenly decide to eat dumplings?"
“Yuanyuan told me yesterday that she wanted to eat dumplings, so as her grandmother, I definitely have to make sure she does.”
Su Jingjing leaned on her mother's shoulder affectionately, "Mom, you only love An'an and Yuanyuan now, you don't love me anymore."
Yan Ling was both amused and exasperated. "You silly girl, you're even jealous of your own child."
"Hehe." Su Jingjing covered her mouth and laughed, "Mom, I have something to tell you."
"Okay, go ahead and say it."
Yan Ling absolutely adores chatting with her daughter.
“My mother-in-law gave me a savings book a couple of days ago, and there is three thousand yuan in it.”
"real?"
Yan Ling asked in surprise.
"Daughter, this is a good thing. It means their family has completely accepted you."
It seems she'll have to invite her future mother-in-law out for a stroll another day.
"Your daughter is loved by everyone, and flowers bloom for her."
Yan Ling laughed so hard that wrinkles appeared on her face. "Oh my, who praises themselves like that?"
What are you two laughing about?
Su Xiang walked in from outside with his hands behind his back. He now goes outside to exercise every morning.
"I was just saying your daughter is amazing."
Yan Ling looked up and smiled.
"That's natural."
Su Xiang, a doting father to his daughter, nodded.
Today's breakfast included pan-fried dumplings and noodles cooked with dumplings. Yuanyuan ate ten in one go.
Su Jingjing was worried that she would have indigestion, so she stopped her from eating any more.
After breakfast, they all went to work, leaving the two children at home to be looked after by their grandparents.
Yuanyuan is playing with her younger brother, while An'an is playing chess with her maternal grandfather.
"Grandma, when will my little brother start talking?"
"It will be soon, in another month or two."
Yan Ling stroked Yuan Yuan's head and said, "Although your little brother can't speak, as long as you talk to him often, he will call you 'sister' sooner or later."
"Really?"
Yuanyuan raised her cute face and said, "Then I want my little brother to call me sister."
“Eee-yah-yah…” Xiao Guodong kept waving his hand when his sister ignored him.
Yuanyuan grabbed his hand, which was soft and squishy. "Grandma, your little brother's hands are so small."
“You were this small when you were little, even cuter than your little brother.”
Yan Ling felt guilty whenever she thought about the grievances her granddaughter had suffered when she was a child.
She didn't know if she was blinded by greed, but her attitude towards An'an and Yuanyuan was very indifferent.
The two children are so cute, especially Yuanyuan, who looks exactly like Jingjing when she was little.
"Yuanyuan, do you remember how Grandma treated you before?"
Yuanyuan paused for a moment. Of course she remembered that back then, her grandmother and mother didn't like her and her brother.
She thought it was because she was unlikable.
But her father said that her mother had a hard time giving birth to her, and told her not to be angry with her mother.
My mother is my grandmother's darling, so it's understandable that she might feel a little uncomfortable.
Hearing this, Yan Ling felt even more distressed.
"Your mother almost didn't make it through the birth of you; she just couldn't adjust to it all at once."
"Grandma thanks Yuanyuan for her understanding."
Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Grandma, you love me and my brother very much now. My brother and I don't remember anything from before."
"We are family."
"Yes, yes, we are family."
She's not as insightful as a child.
