Erdan, who was already interested in making money, suddenly felt a sense of sacred mission because of Ms. Meng's words - to make the whole family live a prosperous life.
Don’t live off your savings, start with learning!
Erdan, who had no idea what owning a yard and a few shops in the capital meant, felt an urgency to make money.
After listening to his grandmother's words and seeing his brother's heroic and confident look, Dadan decided to keep his grandmother's painstaking efforts a secret.
The family finished their meal and took inventory. Just as they were about to leave, Ms. Meng became nervous. "I...I think I forgot something?"
Su Qinghu looked at his watch and said, "It's okay. Take your time to think about it. We still have time."
"What did you forget? What did you forget?" Ms. Meng muttered to herself. Chen Bai was powerless to do anything about it and just stood there waiting for her.
Erdan: "Milk, nutritional supplements, red wine, white wine, tea, dried fruits, snacks, fruits, candies, and meat are all here."
"No, no," Ms. Meng waved her hands, "not this!"
"Then... the gift money?" Erdan's eyes lit up. "I think your recognition of your relationship is like a betrothal proposal. People who betrothal proposals come with a gift money!"
Before Ms. Meng could speak, he continued, "You also have bicycles, televisions, and refrigerators?"
When he said this, he was a little confused. His parents had already obtained a marriage certificate, so was there a need to give a new betrothal gift?
Su Qinghu was speechless for a moment. "It's a recognition of kinship, not a betrothal! No gift money is needed!"
She hasn't told the children yet that the four-wheeled car outside is also a gift for recognizing relatives.
Once this gift is released, who can compete with it in this era?
Ms. Meng hadn't listened to the conversation at all. When she thought of this, she finally slapped her forehead and said, "I remember, I haven't rinsed my mouth yet!"
Chen Bai: “…”
Chen Lie: "...Did you forget to brush your teeth this morning?"
"Who goes out without brushing their teeth? Didn't we just have breakfast? If it were any other day, it would be fine, but today is special, so you should go rinse your mouth or brush your teeth again."
Ms. Meng said, looking at Su Qinghu, "Xiao Su, do you have enough spare toothbrushes at home?"
Su Qinghu came back to his senses from his astonishment and said, "Yes, I'll get it for you."
Seeing her mother-in-law being so serious, she felt a little uneasy. Wait a minute... should she go brush her teeth again?
====
It was not until 9:10 that the family's two cars drove onto the asphalt road.
Su Qinghu didn't know whether old lady Su Lilin had returned or when she would return.
But today is Monday, and she has an outpatient clinic in the afternoon. According to the old lady's model worker spirit, she will be at home at least at ten o'clock.
After all, when she called in the morning, the person on the other end said that the old lady was not there, and the several students who went to the free clinic had not returned either. She was also told that Su Lilin would not be back on Sunday night, but would be back before 10 am on Monday.
After all, cars are faster than other major means of transportation. In less than half an hour, we arrived at Su Lilin's residence.
The door was not locked.
That means there is someone inside.
Su Qinghu knocked on the door, and when it opened, it was Su Lilin's student. When he saw her, he said, "We have an outpatient clinic this afternoon. You can just go to the hospital to register."
"I'm not going to see a doctor. I'm going to see my aunt." Su Qinghu smiled. "Is she back?"
"The aunt you are talking about is our teacher Su?" the student asked. He looked at the people behind her and saw that everyone was carrying something, so he believed it a little.
After all, chicken, duck meat and other things don't seem to be obtained through backdoor channels.
Su Qinghu nodded, "Yes."
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Lilin called her student and asked her what he was doing standing at the door.
The student didn't explain and just moved aside, revealing Su Qinghu behind him.
"Teacher, she said you are her great aunt."
The old lady Su Lilin waved her hand and smiled, "Come in, what's wrong with you today? Didn't we recognize each other as relatives a long time ago? Why bring gifts? It's too formal, isn't it? You can take them with you when you leave later."
Su Qinghu walked in with a smile, and Ms. Meng, Chen Baichen and their two children followed in one after another.
Before anything else could be said, Su Lilin and several other students exchanged glances and were about to leave.
When leaving, he didn't forget to ask if he wanted to ask the dean for leave.
"No need, it's fine until 1:30 in the afternoon." Su Lilin waved his hand and told them to leave.
Su Qinghu then said, "Last time we recognized godparents, this time we are here to recognize real relatives."
Ms. Meng listened with a smile and said nothing.
Su Lilin looked at her, then at the people behind her, and suddenly his heart started pounding when he thought of Chen Lie and Chen Bai's identities.
Have you found out any news about your brother Su Lixing?
Xiao Su...Xiao Su is her brother's granddaughter?
No matter how disappointed he was, at this moment, Su Lilin couldn't help but pray and hope.
"you--"
She only said one word before her voice choked. She didn't know why, but when she looked at Su Qinghu, she always felt an indescribable sense of grievance and wanted to hug him and cry loudly...
Su Qinghu: "My grandfather's original name was Su Lixing, which means to gain a foothold in the medical field. Later, during the war, he joined the army and was injured in the head. He had no identifying items on his body. After being rescued and recovered, he lost his memory. Later, he changed his name and became an underground operative. After the war, he didn't know how to trace his roots, so he followed my grandmother back to her hometown."
At that time, Su Lixing's registration information was not that detailed, so it was impossible to find it.
Maybe I searched but found nothing...
"His later name was Su Beiyong. It's normal that you can't find him."
The surname Su is also very simple. Because he has a Suzhou and Hangzhou accent, and "there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below", he took "Su" as his surname.
It was a coincidence, or fate, but my surname is still Su.
There were tears in Su Lilin's eyes, but he couldn't say a word.
Seeing this, Su Qinghu sighed, winked at Chen Lie, and asked him to take Ms. Meng and Chen Baixian into the living room.
As soon as the people left, Su Qinghu stepped forward and took the person into his arms. Only then did he realize that the little old lady was trembling all over.
"Compared to others, my grandfather didn't suffer that much." Su Qinghu hugged the little old lady and rubbed her back. "Because he joined the army and had a visible forehead wound, he worked hard to keep everyone well fed and clothed after retirement. Even during those years when everyone was in danger, no one dared to touch him."
Su Lilin breathed heavily and tried to adjust his emotions, but in the end it was in vain.
Su Qinghu felt her clothes getting wet and sighed silently in her heart. She was actually not very good at comforting others.
"My grandfather was also healthy and pain-free when he died." Su Qinghu patted Su Lilin, "Aunt, this is the best way for you to leave this world, right..."
Su Lilin: "I..."
He had just said one word when his voice began to tremble and he couldn't form a complete sentence.
"Don't worry, there are only two of us in our family. I will take care of you in your old age." Su Qinghu said proudly, "If anyone bullies you, just call me and I will come to your aid without hesitation! When it comes to being shameless, I am still one of the best."
Ms. Meng, who was paying attention to the situation on their side, had a complicated expression on her face, which was hard to describe.
What I said...
There's no atmosphere at all!
Maybe he's been influenced by Erdan, he's even talking like a gang leader...
