After sending the person to the door of the guest room and watching him go in, Su Qinghu returned to his own room.
"Are you back? I bought some watermelon and saved some for you. Eat some to cool down."
Ms. Meng waved to Su Qinghu with a smile and an eager look in her eyes, which made Su Qinghu a little at a loss.
For a moment, she even thought that Qian Duoshu had revealed that she was going to kiss Chen Lie...
But when he took the three children out for a walk and a meal, Qian Duoshu promised her that he would never tell anyone about her beating Chen Lie.
So you shouldn't have told anyone about it, right?
Su Qinghu responded and went to eat the melon nervously.
Dadan, Erdan and Qian Duoshu did not move when they saw her come back, until Erdan stood up with a cheer and handed a handful of pecan kernels to her, ending the walnut-peeling rally between the three children.
"Mom, this is for you."
Qian Duoshu and Dadan also got down from the bed in the middle, and each grabbed a small handful and handed it to Su Qinghu.
Su Qinghu took it all and ate it.
As for being humble, that doesn't exist for her.
The older generation's way of caring for children, such as telling the child that they don't like the food and then leaving it all for the child, doesn't work for Su Qinghu. For example, she also doesn't like to coax the child into eating only a small bite and then leaving it all for the child.
If the child gives it to you, then eat it.
Don’t children just eat what adults give them?
It’s also a different kind of sharing.
In short, eat when you should.
So, seeing the three children stunned, Su Qinghu curved her eyebrows and smiled.
"It's delicious, thank you."
Do you think she will be like the elders nowadays, taking a small bite like a chicken pecking at rice, and then giving them the rest?
Hahahaha, so naive!
The three children tried to talk for a long time, but Su Qinghu got them hooked and they just said "you're welcome" in the end.
Su Qinghu finished eating the walnut kernels offered by the children and generously gave them some melon.
After dividing the melon, Su Qinghu's hair stood on end.
No way! It's been so long now, why is her mother-in-law still smiling at her like she did at the beginning?!
She: "...Mom, is there anything happy?"
Ms. Meng shook her head. "Nothing, nothing. I'm just happy to see you guys are doing well."
The more Ms. Meng talked about this, the more guilty Su Qinghu felt. Could it be that Qian Duoshu had really leaked the secret? Or had her mother-in-law seen her displaying things this way and that?
But to be honest, she didn't do anything substantial to Chen Lie, right?
Su Qinghu's face turned red with guilt.
Seeing her face turn red, Ms. Meng was stunned for a moment, and then she became even happier, happy that her daughter-in-law had such a sincere admiration for her son.
Su Qinghu felt guilty and became annoyed with Chen Lie again.
She didn't do anything, not even a kiss, so why should she feel guilty?
Ms. Meng looked at Su Qinghu with a smile, but didn't say anything. She was afraid that if she said something, Su's face would get even redder.
====
The next morning, Ms. Meng got up and packed up, ready for her appointment. After she left, Su Qinghu and the three children washed up and went out to eat.
In those days, there were no mobile phones and televisions were not popular, so you could just go to bed whenever you wanted. After getting enough sleep, it was easy to get up early.
After staying in Hangzhou for two days and settling her mother-in-law's affairs, Su Qinghu took her three children, her mother-in-law Ms. Meng, and Xiao Zhang, and took a boat to Jiang Province. The round trip was so cheap and fast that Su Qinghu was surprised.
The water transportation hub is well received.
On August 28th, the group returned home with a full load of local specialties and drove back to the capital.
Dadan and Erdan’s first trip in life ended successfully.
Qian Duoshu was also happy, but he was a little worried about the money he hadn't spent. How would he tell his father when he got home? He hadn't even completed the task...
The people went back to Su Qinghu first.
After getting in the car and opening the gates to the courtyard and the living room, Erdan yelled, "Mom! Mom! Mom! Although it's fun outside, I feel like it's great to be home too!"
Little Qian Duoshu also nodded vigorously, "I'm not sticky anymore."
After this trip, Dadan became more calm and didn't say anything, but he was calmer.
Su Qinghu and Xiao Zhang moved local specialties into the yard. Seeing the three children happy, she was also happy, but she said, "Okay, don't get excited yet. I have some small things on me, can you help me carry them into the house?"
Ms. Meng was already carrying her things and heading into the house. "Hurry up, hurry up, once we're done, let's take a shower and then eat some melon."
It is inconvenient to take a shower on the road, and sometimes I just have to bear it.
Now that I'm back, taking a bath is my first priority.
Su Qinghu just stood up with her things in her hand when she heard a familiar, slightly choked voice, "Duoduo, my son! Why have you lost weight?"
Su Qinghu: "..."
My sister-in-law is still so unpleasant!
Ms. Meng: "What are you talking about? How do you know Duoduo has lost weight? Have you weighed him? How much did he weigh when he left? How much did he weigh when he came back? Are you still calculating?"
Chen Yan: "...Mom, I'm not. I was just too excited to see Duoduo. I haven't seen him in a long time. I just said it casually..."
Ms. Meng snorted and continued to walk towards the living room with her things.
Chen Yan grabbed Qian Duoshu who was trying to pick up something and said, "Duoduo, do you miss your mother? Are you eating well outside? Are you staying well? Are you unhappy?"
Qian Duoshu frowned, "Mom, I eat well outside, live well, and am very happy."
"Do you miss your mother? I miss you so much. When I think about my Duoduo having to leave me for such a long time, I can't eat or sleep." Chen Yan complained to her son like a spoiled child.
Qian Duoshu spoke frankly, "I didn't miss my mother, nor did I miss my grandparents."
Chen Yan was stunned and looked at her son, not knowing what to say.
Qian Duoshu finally broke free from his mother and went to the living room with a box of snacks.
Chen Yan was instantly furious. He had only been away for seven or eight days, and her son had already stopped kissing her! He even said that he hadn't missed her or his grandparents during these days away!
Mr. and Mrs. Qian, who came to pick up their grandson, were also stunned. Looking at their grandson's tense little face, they felt a little uncomfortable.
"Duoduo, you've only been out for a short time, have you already forgotten what we taught you? How do you talk to Mom? Grandpa and Grandma would be so sad to hear you say that!" Chen Yan quickly followed him and stayed beside her son. "Duoduo, don't learn bad habits. Think carefully about how you talk to Mom and Grandpa and Grandma."
Qian Duoshu: "If I say that, Mom will be very sad, and Grandpa and Grandma will be very sad too. But when Mom said that just now, my aunt will also be sad, and Grandma will be sad too. Mom, haven't you thought about it? It's not good to be lenient with yourself and strict with others."
