342 Too Much Pain
After dinner and cleaning up, Fu Yuanhang took out the cashmere coat he bought on the road and gave it to Su Taotao.
They said the goods were from Hong Kong and no tickets were needed.
Su Taotao was stunned!
This is a classic style that will never go out of style for decades. It is no exaggeration to say that this coat would not be out of place even if worn in the 21st century.
At most I thought it was retro style.
Many Hong Kong stars wore this style in the 1970s and 1980s.
As soon as Su Taotao came up, the three of them stared in amazement.
Chenchen clapped his hands and said, "Mom, this is so delicious~~"
Zhou Linglan nodded in satisfaction: "Taotao has a good figure, and she looks good in anything. In this dress, she looks better than a movie star."
"Xiaohang has good taste. I like it very much. I can't even buy such a good-looking coat that fits me well. Thank you, Xiaohang. You can just take it from the mooncake box if you want to pay for it."
There is a mooncake box at home where some reserve money is kept. Money and tickets for daily use are usually placed there, and whoever needs them can take them out.
Fu Yuanhang smiled. He knew that when his sister-in-law liked something, she didn't care about its price at all.
"As long as my sister-in-law likes it."
"Uncle, I don't have any gift~~" Chen Chen looked at Fu Yuanhang expectantly.
Fu Zhengtu is used to bringing gifts for children every time he comes back from going out.
Fu Yuanhang blinked. It seemed that he really forgot to buy a gift for the child.
"Yes, yes, yes, he's here with grandma." Zhou Linglan bent down and picked up her little grandson.
Zhou Linglan made a lot of small things for Chenchen in her spare time.
Little hats, little sleeves, little gloves, little school bags, little aprons...everything.
Zhou Linglan took out a woolen scarf and wrapped it around the child's neck: "This is a gift from uncle to Chenchen."
"Wow~~ It's so delicious, thank you~~"
Fu Yuanhang was embarrassed.
It was not prepared by him for the children at all. He was really busy and didn't think about it, but it was not a good time to dismantle Zhou Linglan's stage now.
Zhou Linglan: "These are all made by grandma, they are all dusty."
Chen Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled: "So many, thank you grandma, what is this~~"
Zhou Linglan: "This is a sleeve. When Chenchen plays with sand, he can wear it so that his sleeves won't get dirty."
Chen Chen: "This is Nirvana~~"
Zhou Linglan: "This is an apron. Wear it when you eat so your clothes don't get dirty."
Chen Chen: "Wow, grandma is so smart~~"
Chenchen likes small schoolbags the most. Nowadays, most schoolbags have a long strap and can be carried on one side, but the small schoolbag Zhou Linglan made for Chenchen has two sides, so Chenchen won’t feel so tired when carrying it.
"Wow, grandma, there is a chick on this schoolbag~~"
Zhou Linglan: "Yes, grandma will embroider a big white duck and a little black dog for you in the future."
Chen Chen nodded heavily: "Yes, I also need to embroider Baibai and Duoduo's names~~"
Zhou Linglan: “Okay.”
…
At night, Fu Yuanhang didn't want to lie to the kid, so he couldn't help but confess to him: "I'm sorry, Chenchen, your uncle doesn't have enough time to buy you a gift. The scarf was knitted for you by your grandma, not bought by me."
Chen Chen lay on his back with his eyes closed. He only opened his eyes after hearing Fu Yuanhang say this: "I know~~"
"You know?" Fu Yuanhang asked in surprise.
Chenchen counted the wrinkled little hands: "The hat, scarf, and gloves are all the same. You can tell they were knitted by grandma~~"
Fu Yuanhang: “…” He almost forgot the kid’s IQ. He and his mother thought Chen Chen believed it.
The child touched Fu Yuanhang's head and said like a little adult: "Little uncle is an honest and good boy. The dust has brewed you~~"
Fu Yuanhang: “…”
There's a reason why the whole family loves this little baby so much. He's so adorable.
…
Zhou Linglan's arrival did make Su Taotao feel a lot more relaxed.
In the past, most of the household chores were shared by the brothers Fu Yuanhang and Fu Zhengtu.
But during the time when Fu Zhengtu was on a business trip and Fu Yuanhang went back to pick up Zhou Linglan, she was really busy.
Even though Chenchen is so easy to take care of, there is still a lot to do, as there are two other creatures at home that need to be taken care of.
Now she felt much more relaxed.
Zhou Linglan got up early in the morning to make breakfast.
Fu Yuanhang and Chenchen also got up early, saying they were going out to practice "martial arts". Zhou Linglan was extremely surprised.
Not long after, Mumu also came and said he was going to practice martial arts. He also gave Zhou Linglan a bag of things: "Fuck mother, this is what my mother asked me to bring. It's a specialty of our hometown. Try it."
Zhou Linglan didn't bother to be polite with him: "Thank you, Mumu, and thank your mother. After you finish practicing, come back with Ah Hang and the others to have breakfast."
Mumu naturally wouldn't be polite and nodded: "Okay."
When Su Taotao got up, Zhou Linglan had already prepared breakfast, including sweet potato and millet porridge with boiled eggs, a plate of lush green vegetables, and a small dish of pickled vegetables that Zhou Linglan brought with her.
It's simple, very much to Su Taotao's taste. Compared to soy milk and fried dough sticks, she prefers this kind of breakfast, which looks appetizing.
"Mom, it's too tiring to prepare so much. Cooking is too troublesome. It's okay to just eat some salty dishes."
Zhou Linglan said, "It's not a problem. Don't you like green vegetables the most? Green vegetables are the sweetest and most delicious at this time. I will plant some more after I finish eating these."
Su Taotao didn't know what to say.
Fu Yuanhang and his friends are on winter vacation now and will be back a little later. Su Taotao and Zhou Linglan have breakfast first.
I have to go to the vegetable market early this morning.
