Su Qingmeng called Lin Meng, Lin Tang, and Ren Dongdong, "I brought you a tape player and English tapes. Go back and study with your brothers and sisters, okay?"
"Thank you, Second Aunt/Aunt." The three of them expressed their gratitude.
Su Qingmeng looked at the little girls, all of whom were in their teens, young and beautiful, and she regretted again that she didn't have a daughter. It would have been great if she had twins. Why was it that other time-traveling heroines usually had twins, a boy and a girl, with many treasures in one pregnancy, but she only had one child. Was she not worthy?
Tangtang stayed to accompany Su Qingmeng. She looked at Su Qingmeng's outfit. Today, Su Qingmeng wore a long orange halter dress with a beige cardigan jacket, pearl earrings, a rose necklace, a white jade bracelet and a gold ring on her left hand. She looked noble and elegant.
"Second Aunt, do you have any secrets to writing? I submit articles to magazines, but they're often rejected."
Su Qingmeng asked: "Are you interested in writing?"
Tangtang rubbed her head, a little embarrassed. "I usually like to read magazines. They invite readers to submit articles, so I'll give it a try."
Su Qingmeng: "You're in your third year of high school this year, right?" Seeing Tangtang nod, she said, "For now, you should focus on studying. It won't be too late to do research after you get into university."
“There is no secret to writing. You need to read a lot and learn different knowledge so that your writing can be meaningful. You should also observe the people and things in your life more often.” She herself read more after traveling through time, and then combined with novel ideas from later generations, her novels became popular.
"Thank you, Second Aunt, I understand," Tangtang nodded. Sure enough, Second Aunt was just as her brother said, a very kind person. In fact, when the sisters chatted with each other, they felt that Second Aunt was very distant, and they did not dare to talk to her easily. But Tiezhu and Tangtang said that Second Aunt was easy to get along with, and her brother did not lie to her.
Kang Kang came over with a glass of water, "Mom, it's time to drink some water."
"Thank you, baby." Su Qingmeng was used to drinking a glass of water at 9:30 every day. Kang Kang knew her mother's habit, so she considerately poured her some water.
Su Qing dreamed that she didn't know what was wrong with her son recently, and he was taking extra care of her. In fact, Kang Kang was scolded by his father. He knew that his mother suffered a lot when giving birth to him, so Lin Xiuyao asked him to be a man and take good care of his mother.
The luncheon banquet began. Eight tables were set up at Uncle San's house. The custom back home was for men and women to sit at separate tables, with children usually sitting with their mothers. To Su Qingmeng's right sat Kang Kang. Zhang Wangyue deliberately sat to Su Qingmeng's left, beating out Zhang Qian, who had wanted to join them.
Uncle San gave a speech, thanking everyone for attending his granddaughter Qiuqiu's graduation banquet and officially announced the start of the banquet.
The banquet dishes were good, and the chef they invited was very skilled. Kang Kang picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks. Su Qingmeng said, "This is carp. It has a lot of bones. Be careful."
"I understand, Mom." Kang Kang picked out the bones and gave the fish meat to Su Qingmeng. Su Qingmeng was flattered. "Eat it yourself, don't worry about me."
When they got closer, Zhang Wangyue noticed Su Qingmeng's jewelry. She was wearing a gold necklace and a gold ring. The jade bracelet on her hand was delicate and smooth, and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money.
Times have really changed now. Lin Xiuhe is the deputy director, and she, as his wife, does not have a very high standard of living, let alone being as extravagant as Su Qingmeng. Whenever she wants to accept a gift, her husband scolds her.
Businessmen can show off their wealth openly without worrying about what others think.
Zhang Wangyue asked, "Sister-in-law, when are you going back?"
Su Qingmeng: "Probably tomorrow."
"Would you like to come to my house and have a visit?" Zhang Wangyue invited. His brother-in-law and his family had never visited him before.
"Let's see if we have time." Su Qingmeng replied ambiguously. She didn't know whether Lin Xiuyao wanted to go.
She looked towards the table of men. Lin Xiuyao was leaning back in his chair with a casual posture, standing out among the middle-aged and elderly men. In fact, no one in the Lin family was ugly, but the others were either fat or old, and none of them were as well-maintained as Lin Xiuyao.
Su Qingmeng smiled unconsciously. Lin Xiuyao noticed his wife's gaze, raised his eyebrows at her and made a questioning expression. Su Qingmeng shook her head slightly, and Lin Xiuyao smiled, very gently.
Zhang Wangyue noticed the look in their eyes and felt full before she had eaten much. She was very curious, "Sister-in-law, how do you and your husband maintain such a good relationship?"
"..." What could she say?
"It's always been like this." Su Qingmeng was helpless.
Zhang Wangyue: “…” He felt a little flattered.
Although Lin Xiuhe is a decent person and does not hook up with young girls like others, he treats her like a family member. After returning home, there is not much to say. The only communication is when talking about the children.
Lin Xiuhe was sitting next to Lin Xiuyao. Today, he has a completely different opinion of his younger brother. The government is now encouraging civil servants to take unpaid leave, and going into business has become a trend.
Self-employed people were no longer discriminated against. On the contrary, society was more envious of the wealthy. He had heard about Lin Xiuyao donating money to build roads in his hometown. "Xiuyao, you're successful now, but don't be proud and complacent. You must abide by the law when doing business and don't engage in shady practices."
Their police station has arrested many fraudulent business gangs and even more illegal fund-raising gangs. He hopes that his brother will be a good citizen who abides by the law.
Lin Xiuyao: "Brother, you don't have to worry about me. I have a wife and children. I won't put myself in danger." He cherishes his life more than anyone else.
Lin Xiuhe: Although my younger brother is henpecked, he has a good wife and he loves his wife so much that he probably won't take any risks.
"That's good."
Lin Xiuyao: "Brother, how is your work?"
"Not bad." Lin Xiuhe's brows relaxed. The current director will retire in a few years, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will be promoted.
