504 Not going back home?

Mumu and the others also brought a lot of things, all prepared by the elders of each family. They even brought several bags of coconut candy, saying that Zhang Jingan asked them to bring them.

When Su Taotao went to return the car, she also brought some local specialties to Mr. Hu's family and Mr. Tang's family.

When the two grandfathers knew that their old friends from the southern base were coming, they were very happy for them and even invited their children to come over to play.

Su Taotao said that the children were too noisy, so she asked the two elderly people to find a convenient evening to come to the store for a gathering.

The two old men naturally agreed.

Su Taotao did not return empty-handed. The two old people gave her a lot of things to take away, saying that they would let the children taste them, among which was a very rare Hami melon.

The teenagers found Hami melons very novel when they saw them for the first time and they studied them for a long time.

Su Taotao opened the cantaloupe on the spot and gave each of them a piece. After they finished eating, she let them wash up and rest.

After eating the Hami melon, the teenagers took turns to wash and do laundry, and they were busy until after ten o'clock in the evening.

Everyone hadn't seen each other for a long time and had endless topics to talk about. If they hadn't been extremely tired after catching the train for two days, the six teenagers would probably have chatted all night.

The next day, Zhou Linglan got up early in the morning to make breakfast.

The three older ones have already gotten up and are determined to help Zhou Linglan make breakfast.

The six half-grown children had a lot of appetite, so Zhou Ling did not refuse and instructed them to knead the dough, chop the stuffing, and light the fire...

After a whole morning of cooking, I made a large plate of chive dumplings and a mountain of pickled mustard greens buns, and also cooked a pot of eggs, millet and sweet potato porridge, and a few dishes of various homemade pickled vegetables.

Such a breakfast is definitely rich.

If it were back in the early years when there was a food shortage, the whole family would not have this much food for a week.

"Aren't you guys going to climb the Great Wall today? Each of you should pack a few and take them with you. You can eat them when you are hungry."

Su Taotao picked up a big, plump white bun and said with a smile, "This is good, but the weather is getting hot, so it won't keep long. You must finish it before noon, don't leave it until the afternoon. Also, bring enough water and have dinner directly back in the store.

Be sure to pay attention to safety, listen to Emirates' instructions, follow closely, and don't fall behind."

Su Taotao took off her watch and put it on Chenchen's wrist: "Chenchen, pay attention to the time. You must be back to the store before dinner time. Can you do it?"

Mumu smiled and said, "Sister Taozi, you still think we are children. We are all adults and know our limits. You don't have to worry."

Su Taotao said: "No matter how old you are, you are all children in our eyes. By the way, Chenchen, call Zigui along, he seems to have never been to the Great Wall."

Chen Zigui doesn't like to go out except when he likes to play with Chenchen. He has indeed never been to the Great Wall.

Awoo took a bite of the big bun and squinted his eyes with happiness: "I already called Chen Zigui yesterday."

Chen Chen looked at his watch in a serious manner: "We agreed to meet at the station at 8 o'clock. We will see each other in an hour."

Su Taotao nodded: "That's fine. By the way, Bai Hua seems to have a day off today. She will stay in the store to help out during the summer vacation. Ah Hang will call her later to let her know so that she can come to the store for dinner in the evening when she has time."

Fu Yuanhang had almost finished eating and nodded, "Okay, I'll go get it later."

Su Taotao’s favorite dish is the preserved vegetable steamed buns made by Zhou Linglan. The homemade preserved vegetables and the sizzling, half-fat and half-lean bacon are a perfect match.

Su Taotao could finish a whole bun, which was bigger than an adult man's fist, in one breath, even after eating some leek dumplings and eggs. This was already a very high compliment considering her appetite.

Each of the boys had two leek dumplings, two big buns, an egg, and some pickled vegetables to drink with porridge. Everyone ate until their stomachs were full before leaving.

Before leaving, Zhou Ling stuffed a few apples into their mouths and they shared them.

…

Chen Zigui learned that he was going out to play with Chen Chen's friends today, so he started preparing last night. He tried on several pieces of clothes and even took out the sneakers he brought back from abroad to wear.

I even wanted to bring all the snacks from home with me until my backpack was filled to the brim and I couldn't put any more in.

Mother Chen took out the eight Beijing dishes from home:

"Agui, take this with you so that everyone can share it. Also bring some cherries from home. Chenchen likes to eat fruit."

Chen Zigui frowned: "But Mom, my backpack is full."

Mother Chen: "Take out the chocolate. It's too hot to keep it. It will melt before we reach the Great Wall.

Find a time to invite them to your home as guests, and then share the food with everyone."

Chen Zigui: "But Chenchen likes chocolate, so I shared some with them when we got to the station and asked them to eat it before it melted."

Mother Chen smiled helplessly: "Okay, then you can carry this too and share it with everyone when we get to the station."

Chen Zigui heard this and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay."

Mother Chen helped her son straighten his collar with great satisfaction. Ever since her son made friend Chen Chen, his whole spirit and energy has been different.

In addition, the food in Su Taotao's restaurant is good, and Su Taotao occasionally turns on a small stove to stew some nourishing soup for the children. In just half a year, Chen Zigui has not only grown a lot taller, but also become a lot stronger, and his personality has become much more cheerful and lively.

Mother Chen didn't know how to thank Su Taotao's family, so she just worked hard to promote her restaurant and brought all her friends and relatives there to dine there.

He also asked Chen Zigui to bring delicious snacks to Chen Chen from time to time.

Knowing that Chenchen likes to eat fruits, he used his connections to find some uncommon fruits for Chen Zigui to bring back and share with Chenchen.

Chen Zigui would bring back some new and exotic food every few days, and she would be the first to know if the restaurant had any new dishes.

If Chen Chen goes to class, he will even bring breakfast for Chen Zigui.

He often took Chen Zigui to play basketball, climb mountains, play chess, origami...

In just one semester, Chen Zi has been brought up so well.

Chen Zigui's extracurricular life has become as colorful as he is.

Now Chen Chen is going to take Chen Zigui to meet new friends.

In the past, Chen Zigui couldn’t even call out the names of his classmates, let alone make new friends, and he was unwilling to interact with them.

How could Mother Chen not be happy? How could she not be grateful to the Chen Chen family?

"Mom, I may not be back until after dinner." Chen Zigui was carrying a large backpack and his hands were full of things.

Her son is now tall and strong, so Mother Chen is not worried at all that this thing will crush him.

“Want to eat in the store?”

Chen Zigui nodded: "Yes."

Mother Chen: "Then I'll ask your father to pick you up around ten o'clock?"

Chen Zigui thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but I brought a set of clothes with me. If Chen Chen invites me to stay at his house, I won't come back."

Mother Chen: “……???” What do you mean? You don’t even come home?
