After parting ways with Mei Bing, Tengteng took out his phone. "Mom, I want to talk to you about something."
Xiaoman frowned. "Speak."
"Mother, I want to marry Mei Bing."
"You haven't known each other for very long."
“I know. Mother, I really like her.”
"Have you thought it through?"
"I've thought it through."
Xiaoman rubbed her forehead. "I'll discuss it with your father."
“Okay. Mom, about Meimei’s family…” Tengteng told Xiaoman about his investigation and what happened at Meibing’s house today. “Mom, Meibing’s parents and brother are fine. It’s just that her sister-in-law has character issues. However, she hurt Meibing this time. Meibing probably won’t listen to her in the future.”
"I see."
"Mom, I'll call you tomorrow."
"Um."
That night, Han Bin hugged Xiaoman as soon as he got into bed. "Wife, let's go on a trip in a few days."
"Do you have time?"
"Um."
"Tengteng called me this afternoon and said he wanted to marry that girl."
"What?!" Han Bin sat bolt upright in bed. "They've only known each other for a short time! Isn't this ridiculous?"
Xiaoman smiled at Han Bing: "You still have the mood to go out and have fun?"
"Yes. Of course we have." Han Bin lay down and hugged Xiaoman: "When Youyou said he wanted to bring that woman back, you told him to wait a year. Let's let Tengteng wait a year this time too."
"no the same."
Han Bin knew that Xiaoman meant that Youyou's partner was older than him, which didn't conform to the mainstream marriage trend in society. Tengteng's partner, on the other hand, conformed to the mainstream in terms of both family background and age. "But it can't be this fast, can it?"
Xiaoman smiled and said, "If you meet the right person, it's okay to hurry."
"That's true. But how do we determine the right person? Maybe I should ask around."
"Need not."
"You want to go and find out for yourself?"
"Um."
Han Bin complained that Tengteng was causing Xiaoman a lot of trouble. "That brat, the older he gets, the more trouble he causes."
Xiaoman patted Han Bin on the back: "This is a major event in Tengteng's life."
"Okay. So when are you planning to go?"
"tomorrow."
"Isn't there a need to be in such a hurry?"
"Mother has been hoping that Tengteng can get married soon." Tang Huihui has been urging Tengteng to get married for many years.
"Alright then." Han Bin put his arm around Xiaoman's waist and kissed her on the cheek. "Don't tire yourself out."
"Um."
Han Bin nuzzled against Xiaoman's neck. "I really want to retire early. After I retire, we'll travel all over the country. Just the two of us."
Xiaoman smiled.
Seeing that Xiaoman didn't speak, Han Bin bit her neck. "At most, add a little black one too."
"good."
The next morning after breakfast, Xiaoman looked at Chou Chou and said, "Grandma has to go out to run some errands. You can come with Grandma."
"Okay." Chou Chou ran to Xiao Man's side. "Grandma, are you going out to buy groceries? Grandma, if you go to buy groceries, I'll help you carry them."
Xiaoman smiled. "You want Grandma to go grocery shopping?"
Ugly blinked. "Little Girl said her grandma goes grocery shopping every day." Little Girl is Ugly's friend.
Han Bin: "Our family doesn't need to buy groceries."
Xiaoman built a large estate. The grains, vegetables, and eggs that her family eats are all produced on Xiaoman's estate.
"Oh." Ugly was a little disappointed. "Grandma, I want to help you carry the groceries."
Xiaoman rubbed Chou Chou's head. "Then Grandma will take you to the market to buy groceries after she's done with her work."
Ugly's eyes lit up immediately. "Okay."
Tang Huihui asked curiously, "Xiaoman, what are you taking Chou Chou for?"
Xiaoman recounted Tengteng's story. "I'm taking Chou Chou to see what kind of partner Tengteng found."
Tang Huihui was happy to hear that Tengteng wanted to get married. But... "You want to get married after just meeting?"
Xiaoman nodded.
"Will this... will this work?"
Han Dashan: "What's wrong with that? Didn't we get married after just one meeting back then?"
Tang Huihui: "How can things compare to what they were like back then? Back then, marriages were all arranged by parents and matchmakers."
Han Dashan: "No one knows a son better than his father, and no one knows a daughter better than her mother. I think there's some truth to the saying 'parents' orders.' Parents know what kind of person their children are and what kind of person they should marry. Look at us, we're doing pretty well. Besides, we even picked out our eldest son's wife for him."
Tang Huihui: "I know. But don't young people these days prefer to find things on their own?"
Sister: "Grandma, I prefer my parents to find one for me."
Younger brother: "I like it too."
Tang Huihui wanted to glare at her sister but couldn't bring herself to. "You two don't count."
Brother: "Sister, Grandma says we're not young anymore."
Tang Huihui glared at her younger brother. "You brat, why do you copy everything your sister does? Your sister is a girl. You're a boy."
The younger brother grinned mischievously. "Hehe..."
Tang Huihui steered the conversation back to Tengteng. "Xiaoman, why don't I go with you? I also want to see what kind of person Tengteng found."
Xiaoman: "Chou Chou and I will go take a look first. If there's a problem, you don't need to go. If there's no problem, I'll have Teng bring her back."
Han Bin: "Mom, just let Xiaoman go."
Tang Huihui: "Okay then."
The older sister looked at Chou Chou and said, "Son, help your mother take good care of Grandma."
Ugly puffed out her little chest. "Okay."
Younger brother: "Mom, how about I go with you?"
"No need." Xiaoman picked up Chou Chou and looked at Han Dashan and Tang Huihui, saying, "Dad, Mom, I'm leaving."
Han Dashan: "Mm."
Tang Huihui: "Drive carefully."
"Okay." Xiaoman carried Chou Chou out of the house and walked to Xiao Hei's side, patting Xiao Hei's back: "Teng Teng found a girlfriend, I'm taking Chou Chou to meet her. You stay home and look after the house for me."
Xiao Hei knew immediately what Xiao Man was going to do. Xiao Hei barked a few times. Xiao Man smiled.
After seeing Han Bin, Xiao Man, and Chou Chou off, the older sister and younger brother went back to their room.
Two days later, Mei Bing had just left the army base when she saw a little boy walking and crying by the roadside.
Mei Bing parked the car next to the little boy. "Little friend, why are you alone? Where's your mother?"
The little boy wiped away his tears. "I don't know."
"And what about your father?"
"have no idea."
"So...where are you going?"
"I want to go to my grandma's house."
Do your parents know you're going to your maternal grandparents' house?
"have no idea."
Mei Bing got out of the car. "Then why didn't you tell your parents?"
"Wah..." The little boy cried even louder. "I can't find my mom and dad. Waaah..."
Mei Bing had never taken care of children before and didn't know how to comfort them. When the little boy cried, Mei Bing felt a little helpless. "You...you don't cry. Little boy, do you know what your father's name is?"
"have no idea."
"And what about your mother?"
"My mom calls me 'older sister'."
"ah?!"
The little boy looked at Mei Bing and said, "Auntie, can you take me to my grandma's house?"
Do you know where your maternal grandmother's house is?
"Hmm." The little boy took a small piece of paper out of his pocket. "My grandma's house is here."
Mei Bing was a little surprised. "Do you have your maternal grandmother's address?"
The little boy nodded. "Sister, can you take me to my grandma's house? I miss my grandma."
Mei Bing took the address from the little boy's hand. "Little friend, how come you have your grandma's address in your pocket?"
My dad gave it to me.
