Xiaoliu skillfully jumped onto Su Qianfan's back seat, and the two brothers got away.
The three people were left standing there looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Su~Cheng~Yi~"
Mother Su gritted her teeth and called out Xiaowu's name. Xiaowu was so scared that he just slipped away.
Xiao Wu ran and yelled, "Ah, Grandma, I was wrong. I just accidentally hurt you. I didn't mean to dirty your clothes."
Just at this time, Su Qianshan came back riding a tricycle, and Su's mother let Xiaowu go.
"Aunt, I'm Meilan's man, my name is Tang Ci."
Tang Ci quickly got off the back seat of the tricycle, wiped the sweat from his hands on the seam of his pants, and stretched out his hand solemnly.
"Um."
Because of the Tang family's affairs, Su's mother didn't have a very good impression of Tang Ci. She responded to Tang Ci and then looked away.
Tang Ci's hand was stretched in the air, unable to move forward or backward.
Seeing this, Tang Meilan silently put his hand in her pocket and whispered, "Last time, my aunt came to our house and saw your mother making a fuss. I think she might have a bad impression of you. Don't worry, I'll put in a good word for you when I get a chance."
"It's okay, daughter-in-law. My mother did something really unkind. Auntie is angry with me because she loves you."
The two of them were almost touching each other when they talked.
Su's mother naturally noticed the two people's little movements, and her unhappiness was suppressed a little.
"Grandma, grandma, Zimei misses you so much."
While his thoughts were drifting, Tang Zimei had already wrapped her arms around Su's mother.
Mother Su took the opportunity to pick her up and said, "Ah, Grandma misses Zimei too. Zimei is beautiful again."
Tang Zijun tugged at Su's mother's clothes, his arrogant expression revealing his desire for praise. "Our Zijun is becoming more and more handsome."
Tang Zijun nodded with satisfaction.
He imitated the adults and jumped out of the back seat.
But he ignored his height and stumbled and almost fell into the ditch. Fortunately, Tang Ci grabbed his collar.
Su's mother's eyelids twitched. Why did she see Xiaowu's shadow in Tang Zijun? She hoped it was an illusion.
"Come, Zijun, let grandma see if anything is wrong."
Fortunately, only the trouser legs were stained with mud. If I had twisted my muscles or stretched my bones, it would have been very painful.
Mother Su put the two of them on the back seat of the tricycle and said, "Zijun, don't jump off so recklessly next time. Got it? Okay, line up with your sister and let Brother Qianshan take you there first. Grandma will be here soon. We'll see you later."
"Qianshan, take the people back first. The cold wind is so painful on the face, and the children can't stand it." As she said that, Su's mother took off her scarf and tied it around the necks of the two little people.
"Okay, I'll take them back first."
Su Qianshan kicked the tricycle with his long legs and rode a long distance.
Then Mother Su took Tang Meilan's hand and walked forward. Tang Ci followed the two of them like a big, aggrieved puppy, not daring to say a word.
Along the way, many people greeted Su's mother.
"Mrs. Su, this is your relative. How come I haven't seen him before?"
"Mrs. Su, do you have any big event today? You are dressed so smartly."
"Here are some freshly baked sweet potatoes. Warm your hands while eating them on the way."
"This girl is so pretty. Is she engaged?"
Everyone chattered and gathered around the man.
Tang Ci has some social anxiety and was smiling foolishly the whole time.
When he heard someone wanted to introduce a date to his wife, he finally couldn't sit still anymore. "Auntie, this is my wife. Our children are already good at cooking."
Su's mother was a little amused and confused. "This is Tang Meilan, the educated youth. She lived in our village for over a year. What's wrong? She doesn't recognize anyone."
"Oh, it's Tang Zhiqing, how come he's still so handsome?"
"You have a really good relationship with the Su family. We have lived in the same village for so many years, and I have never seen Mrs. Su be so enthusiastic towards anyone."
"Tang Zhiqing, why did you want to come back and take a look?"
"It's not that the Su family is rich, if it were me I would come back too."
…
There are a lot of caring words, but also a lot of sarcastic remarks.
Tang Meilan just smiled and said nothing.
"I think you are really idle. What's wrong with visiting each other as we have a good relationship? Do I have to be like you, refusing to let my daughter and son-in-law in if they don't bring any meat? My Su family would never do such a thing." Tang's mother retorted angrily.
The words "daughter and son-in-law" pleased Tang Ci.
So he and Tang Meilan are now visiting as daughter and son-in-law!!!
It seems that Su's mother still approves of him.
The reason why she is so cold towards him now is probably because her attitude towards Tang Meilan at that time made her feel unhappy.
After reflecting on himself, Tang Ci figured out how to ease the relationship and felt a little relieved.
"I'm just saying, why are you so angry? Is it necessary to expose my shortcomings in front of so many people?"
"I was just saying it casually, why are you so anxious? Besides, I wasn't wrong."
After this little incident, the others stopped talking nonsense.
"Okay, okay, stop stopping us. Our Meilan has been running around all day. She needs to go back and rest early. Let's go." Mother Su protected Tang Meilan and rushed out of the crowd.
After they walked away, Su's mother started to scold those people.
"A bunch of old witches. When they need help, they act like they're on good terms with you, but when they don't, they spout all sorts of bullshit. All they do all day is gossip about others behind their backs. At the end of the day, others earn ten work points, but they get nothing but a dry, peeling mouth. And yet they still dream of getting rich. It's not as beautiful as this, even in dreams."
"It's okay, auntie. It's just a few words. I won't lose a piece of meat. Besides, if I wasn't living well, they wouldn't bother to say it."
Yes, if they weren’t jealous, they wouldn’t complain like this.
But what can we do if Su’s mother just can’t stand it?
"That won't do. We have a good life, and that's earned through our hard work, not charity from them. Why should we accept their criticism? Meilan, you need to be more assertive. Your temper is very disadvantageous. If you're unhappy, you should speak out. If you keep it in, you'll only hurt yourself."
Tang Meilan was fascinated by the way Su's mother protected her child.
"Did you hear what I said? Well, forget it. After dinner, come to my room with Xiaoqing, Xiaoli and the others. I'll teach you some of my experience..."
Looking at the two people walking in front and talking and laughing, Tang Ci began to understand why Tang Meilan loved to deal with the Su family and would write letters to them every month even though she was far away in the provincial capital.
Because it feels great to be firmly chosen and protected behind you.
…
When they returned home, Tang Zijun and Tang Zimei had already become familiar with the children at home.
There was a lot of laughter and noise.
The brave Tang Zijun was even instigated by Xiao Wu to pull Hei Ye's beard.
Hei Ye also cooperated very well, covering his chin and groaning in pain.
Tang Zijun couldn't bear it and went forward to comfort him, but Hei Ye grabbed him in his arms and tickled him.
