"Mom, don't worry, we can handle any suspicious persons around our house!" Da Bao said excitedly.
Ge Bao chimed in, "Don't even mention boys, even two flies would appear!"
Su Xia, Chen Jianguo...you're really amazing!
Niu Niu burst out laughing, and the whole family started laughing again.
That night, when Chen Jianguo and Su Xia were sleeping, Su Xia pushed away the man who wanted to hug her.
"The child is so big now, and I find that you are still..." Su Xia said.
Chen Jianguo chuckled, holding the person in his arms, "What..."
"Get lost! You know what I mean!" Su Xia's face turned bright red.
A muffled laugh came from her neck, but Su Xia was still overpowered.
Looking into the man's eyes, Su Xia gritted her teeth, "If you were the one who got a vasectomy, I'd really throw you out!"
Ha ha....
Chen Jianguo laughed, and then the room was filled with pink bubbles.
When Su Xia woke up, there was no one beside her.
Feeling exhausted, Su Xia couldn't help but curse at the air.
"You damn man, you stinky man! Next time you do this, I'll change my surname!"
snort.....
Achoo... Achoo...
Chen Jianguo sneezed twice in the office, and his secretary asked him worriedly.
"Chief, where does it feel comfortable?"
Chen Jianguo wrinkled his nose. "It's nothing, it's probably just someone talking about it!"
The secretary knows how to handle things; it must be her sister-in-law!
Upon hearing this, Chen Jianguo's eyes crinkled with laughter, clearly showing signs of being smitten....
After Su Xia got up, Niu Niu had already prepared breakfast: simple porridge, steamed buns, and leftovers...
"Mom, are you sleeping in again?" It's Xiao Bao again.
Su Xia gritted her teeth, "You can sleep too!"
Xiao Bao shook his head, "No, I'm sleeping!"
"Little sister, you woke up early too, didn't you!" he said, having just woken up, and needed someone to keep him company.
Although the little girl is sensible, she's still a child at heart. "Mommy, our teacher said that sleeping in late is a shameful thing!"
Su Xia... was actually being lectured by a child.
"This is my home. I can sleep as late as I want, whatever your opinion is."
Niu Niu, Da Bao, and Ge Bao smiled shyly as the three of them looked at the twins.
Those who were scolded were stunned and dared not speak again.
"Mom, go back to sleep, I'm here!" Niu Niu said to Su Xia, who was yawning.
Su Xia nodded and looked at Da Bao and Gu Bao, "You two wash the dishes!"
"knew!"
Su Xia returned to her room and soon fell asleep again.
The twins, however, only dared to speak loudly after they were sure Su Xia was fast asleep.
"Sister, why is Mother so sleepy?"
"Could it be because you stay up late at night?"
"Then why do you stay up late at night?"
"This... can you play until you forget the time?" the little girl said confidently.
"That's really possible! Mom does too, she lets us play, but she plays by herself at night!"
If Su Xia overheard the twins' conversation, she would definitely be spared a beating.
"This is cough medicine. If you still have a cough at night, take two tablets!"
"Here's some pear juice, freshly made. Hold off for now, but don't forget to drink it later!"
"Oh right, I just took it out to dry. I'll have Niu Niu come over and bring it back in for you later!"
Grandma Dou's cloudy eyes watched Su Xia's figure, and she sighed inwardly...
"It's been so many years, and it's still the same as it was back then!"
"Alright, stop nagging. Your child is so big now, how come they've still learned to nag?"
Su Xia was shocked, but what could she do in front of an old man? She retorted softly, "Is this because you're afraid I'll forget?"
“I’m not that confused!” the old lady agreed.
"Okay, okay... I was just nagging!"
"That's still far from enough. By the way, has Niu Niu's job been settled?"
"His dad works as a broadcaster!"
The old lady was pleased, "This job is great, it's perfect for Niu Niu!"
"It's because you thought of Niu Niu!" Su Xia was genuinely grateful to the old man.
I've been teaching Niu Niu and Gu Bao very seriously these past few years.
Niu Niu's calligraphy is rusty, and so is Bao Bao's painting. If she were an old lady, where would she find someone like that in this day and age?
So, whenever they come over, they tidy up the house, cook delicious food, fetch water, chop firewood, and do whatever they can to help.
Grandma Dou didn't respond, and she was used to it.
Su Xia assumed she was just resting and didn't think much of it, never expecting the time to come so quickly.
Originally, Bao had planned to go back to the village in two days, but the old lady suddenly said that she should go back first.
But after that, when I went to the old lady's place, I stayed for a while, and Niu Niu would go too.
Su Xia found something suspicious, but the other person said, "Is this how it can be done?"
Until mid-August, it rained quite easily the previous month, but it's been a bit cooler this month.
Su Xia was preparing to give the house a thorough cleaning and habitually asked the old lady for advice.
But I never expected there to be someone in the courtyard...
Su Xia stared in shock, and it wasn't until she saw the baby that she realized the person was the old lady's nephew.
The meaning of 늀 is "old lady's big child 떚", indicating age...
She should call him "uncle." "Hello, my name is Dou Guodong, I'm the old man's nephew!"
Su Xia quickly shook hands and said, "Hello, my name is Su Xia!"
"I know you. Your aunt mentions you the most in her letters!"
Upon hearing this, Su Xia breathed a sigh of relief. The person before her, though with graying hair, stood ramrod straight, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, black leather shoes, and gold-rimmed glasses...
It feels familiar, like someone who appeared at the founding ceremony of a nation in later generations...
"Guodong, speak properly!" A reprimand came from the room.
Su Xia, with her sharp eyes, spotted the person opposite her, her face fell, and she put on a wronged expression.
"Auntie, have I always been like this?"
"Get out... Don't use that same trick you use on your subordinates here!"
...
"Okay, Comrade Su, I'm sorry, just now..."
Su Xia's lips twitched, but she still went down the slope, saying, "It's alright, it was my abruptness!"
"Haha... Auntie, this young comrade really did suffer a loss, just as you said!"
"That's what you deserve! You had to scare her. Even Su Xia didn't bother with you; I'd just throw you out!"
"Auntie,...I came to pick you up. Why do you keep criticizing me? Besides, I'm a grandfather now, how can I be so shameless?"
"Even if you're dead, you're still my nephew, and I'll still talk about you!"
......
Su Xia watched the bickering aunt and niece for a long time before she realized that they were indeed family.
When Su Xia went to the old lady's place again, it was Niu Niu who came to call her.
Looking at Niu Niu's red and swollen eyes, Su Xia sighed and finally comforted her, saying, "Madam is going to enjoy herself; you must tell her that!"
Niu Niu hiccuped. She understood the logic, but couldn't bear to say, "Mom, what do I do when I miss my wife?"
Su Xia... How would she know? Besides, the old man's health was clearly not as good as before.
"I'm thinking of writing a letter!"
Chen Jianguo wasn't at work either. He had no choice but to see off the elderly man he'd known for so many years who had suddenly passed away.
The twins, Da Bao and Chen Jianguo, stayed at home while Su Xia and Chen Jianguo took Niu Niu and Gu Bao to the old lady's house.
When I went out, I noticed that all my neighbors were standing there.
Because there was a jeep parked in front of the old lady's house, Aunt Li saw Su Xia and immediately came over excitedly.
"Jianguo, Su girl, who are you from the old lady's house?"
Others also came over, since Su Xia's family was the only one who was familiar with the old lady.
"Auntie, I know too. If you're curious, go ask her yourself!" Su Xia replied dismissively.
Aunt Li immediately agreed, "Little Su, who knew the old lady liked you? What's wrong with telling her?"
Su Xia....
