After the three of them had eaten, Su Qinghu felt a little less strange.
"Mom, how's things at home lately?" There's no rule at home about not talking while eating. As long as you're not holding food in your mouth, you can talk.
Su Qinghu asked, and Ms. Meng put down her chopsticks. "Everything is fine. Dadan and Erdan are going on a spring outing tomorrow, and I've prepared everything that's necessary."
Dadan and Erdan nodded.
Su Qinghu narrowed his eyes. These two children are really too quiet and talk less today?
"Mom, have you received any letters from Chen Lie recently?" Su Qinghu thought of something, glanced at Dadan inconspicuously, and asked Ms. Meng.
Ms. Meng: "No. What? Do you want to see him for something?"
"No, just asking." Su Qinghu pretended to ask casually, then quickly changed the subject and asked about Dadan and Erdan's daily life.
She breathed a sigh of relief knowing that no strange people came to her house asking for children.
But while I felt relieved, I was also more curious about the reactions of the three people today.
After dinner, Ms. Meng asked Su Qinghu to wash up first, and she went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
After washing up, the foot-washing water in the living room was ready. Erdan moved a small stool and sat opposite the foot basin, obviously determined to watch her wash her feet.
Su Qinghu: "..."
He walked over calmly, took off his shoes and washed his feet, then looked at Erdan innocently.
Erdan spoke first, looking at her doubtfully, "Mom?"
"Yeah." Su Qinghu couldn't help but ask and just responded.
After she wiped her feet, poured water for washing her feet, and returned to the house, she stood still at the door of the living room.
The three of them stood in a row and just looked at her.
Su Qinghu: "...What's wrong?"
Ms. Meng began to rub her hands again, a little embarrassed, but also a little excited, and asked, "Xiao Su, are you... are you..."
"Hmm?" Seeing that she couldn't ask, Su Qinghu looked at her mother-in-law, Ms. Meng, encouragingly.
Ms. Meng: "Well, do you feel that there is something different about yourself? Different from before."
Su Qinghu: "No, I can eat, drink and have fun."
I was just running missions outside, exposed to the wind and sun, and I seem to have gotten a little darker.
But don't worry, she will be back soon.
Not worth mentioning.
"Dadan and Erdan, go to bed." Ms. Meng really didn't know how to hint, so she urged the children to go to bed so that she could ask directly.
Dadan and Erdan: “…”
Why?
Didn't we discuss it together today? Why do we have to ask them to avoid discussing the results?
Erdan was very brave and aggressive, and asked directly, "Mom, are you pregnant?"
Ms. Meng and Dadan looked at him instantly, with some disbelief in their eyes, and then looked at the person involved, Su Qinghu.
Su Qinghu's mind went blank for a moment. He was speechless for a long time before he said in disbelief, "You've been acting weird ever since I came back. Is this why?"
It gave her the feeling that the emperor was about to appoint a crown prince.
The three of them didn't say anything, but just nodded to confirm her question.
Su Qinghu: "I don't know either. I'll go check it out tomorrow."
My period has been delayed for many days. Now that I think about it, it's been quite a while. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be here.
But it's not surprising. Considering Chen Lie's powerful strength that almost welded people to the bed, it would be strange if he didn't have it...
Ms. Meng and Dadan and Erdan all seemed to be hesitant to speak, obviously choked by her answer which was not an answer.
"I don't want to go on the spring outing." Erdan spoke first.
Dadan looked at him and said nothing, but Erdan felt encouraged.
So, Erdan started, "We have a spring outing every year anyway, so it's not that interesting. We just walk around, look at the fields outside, and then share food."
Ms. Meng: “…”
Should she expose this child? He was clearly in high spirits after coming back from school, and his words were full of anticipation.
Are you changing your mind so easily now?
"Besides, I have to pay one dollar." Erdan curled his lips, "What a waste."
Su Qinghu's teeth itched, and her hands were itching to move. In the end, she put them on his head, rubbed it randomly, and scolded him, "Do you think I'm short of that dollar? Pay it! Tell the teacher, we'll pay two dollars!"
Erdan stiffened his neck and asked her to rub it, muttering, "No, we can't break the rules so easily, otherwise it's unfair to others. Isn't that what you said? Besides, we have to take care of those in our family who are less well-off. If we suddenly increase the salary, it will be a burden for them."
His mother often said these things, and the foreign language teacher also said such things.
Su Qinghu: "So are you going or not?"
"Then... let's go." Erdan sighed and compromised, "But you can't charge more."
"I'm just teasing you!" Su Qinghu slapped him on the head and laughed, "I didn't expect that Shengsheng remembered what I said so clearly. It seems he likes me very much."
Erdan, also known as Gao Haisheng, and also called "Little Shengsheng" by Su Qinghu, suddenly had a flushed face that instantly spread to his ears and neck.
Su Qinghu: "Hahaha, you are still shy."
Erdan couldn't help it, covered his face, and ran to the bedroom, "I'm going to bed!"
So embarrassing!
His mother actually called him "Little Shengsheng"!
Just like that little kid named Qian Duoshu~~~~
Su Qinghu looked at Dadan with a wicked smile. Dadan was laughing at Erdan in his heart, but was suddenly locked in by her and was stunned.
Facing her evil smile, Dadan suddenly woke up and walked straight to the bedroom, "I'm going to rest too."
He would never give her the chance to call him "Yan Yan"!
Su Qinghu sighed with some regret and said to Dadan's back, "Yanyan, good night."
Dadan, also known as Zhang Anyan, staggered suddenly and fled in panic amid Su Qinghu's cheerful and cunning laughter.
Ms. Meng watched her teasing the two children with a smile in her eyes.
She is a really kind-hearted daughter-in-law.
The kind-hearted Su Qinghu opened her arms towards Ms. Meng and hugged her in her arms, "Mom, you've worked hard~"
"Why is it so hard? Dadan and Erdan are both easy to take care of." Ms. Meng's heart softened immediately. "Besides, that class you signed me up for has helped me make some friends. I study with them during the day, and talk to the kids at night. It feels like... I've gained some extra time."
Ms. Meng lamented that in the past, they first suffered from hunger, and later they were worried about all kinds of things. Although she and Lao Chen were not affected too much, they were always nervous, fearing that some unfounded slander would be attributed to them.
It has been seven or eight years since the reform and opening up, but time has left its mark on people, making it difficult for them to let go for a while.
What young people like and come into contact with are things they don’t understand.
Xiao Su seemed to be playing around, but in fact she was patiently guiding them to learn these things. Without her children around, there was no one she could talk to.
Xiao Su is really good. Just thinking about it makes me feel warmed.
