Su Qinghu and Ms. Meng washed the dishes while the three children swept the yard and collected the garbage. After they were done, they quickly went to play with the typewriter that had been disassembled into pieces and then half-assembled.
Ms. Meng watched and took a breath silently.
This typewriter is new, and it has been messed up by the child like this?
"It's okay." Su Qinghu followed her mother-in-law's gaze and smiled. "If it doesn't work, let's go to the typewriter shop. They can fix it there."
If it can't be repaired...
Let’s talk about it later.
"Yeah." Ms. Meng nodded. "These vegetables in the yard are not doing well. Should we just give them up?"
This was planted by my father-in-law last time.
Su Qinghu smiled and nodded, and pulled out the vegetable seedlings with her mother-in-law, Ms. Meng.
"We should actually plant some loofah and squash," Ms. Meng shook her head. "We can eat loofah when it's tender, and use it to wash dishes when it's older. Squash is durable and can be dried and eaten in the winter."
Su Qinghu listened with a smile, "Don't you have a lot of dried vegetables? I'll ask you for some when the time comes."
"Wait a little longer, there are still some that haven't been dried yet. I'll bring them to you when they're all dried."
After Ms. Meng finished speaking, she pondered for a while, and finally said, "Xiao Su, do you think it's okay to hold a wedding banquet for you and Chen Lie at the end of the year?"
Su Qinghu: "Are you being urged too?"
"Also?" Ms. Meng asked, "Who else has been urged?"
Su Qinghu smiled, "Don't you know? Chen Lie."
"Chen Lie?" Ms. Meng was startled. "He's back? When did he come back? Why didn't you tell me?"
Su Qinghu: "Don't think too much about the past two days. He was very busy, so he just had a meal at home and left again."
"It will take about three or two hours." Su Qinghu added.
Ms. Meng: "Let's not talk about whether he's coming back or not. As I just said, what do you think about holding a wedding banquet for you at the end of the year? Is it possible? If so, I'll start preparing now so that we don't have to rush and make inadequate preparations when the time comes."
Su Qinghu: "If Chen Lie has time, then we can prepare it."
As soon as she let go, Ms. Meng felt happy. "Chen Lie is unreliable. He didn't even let us meet your family!"
Su Qinghu sighed, "There's no one left at my mother's side."
Who could it be?
After the original grandfather passed away, there were no more relatives there.
Ms. Meng: “I…”
She asked a sad question.
"I'll find some people for you to hold the wedding banquet," Ms. Meng said tentatively.
Su Qinghu: "That's not necessary. Just do what needs to be done. I'll draw up the list for the woman and show it to you."
The original body seemed to have no attachment to the place where he grew up, except for Old Man Su.
Su Qinghu didn't go because she wasn't prepared. To the Su family, she was just an outsider...
Having said that, the matter is basically settled.
Ms. Meng started thinking about preparing something for Su Qinghu so that she could feel that someone loved her.
Su Qinghu, on the other hand, quickly recovered her composure and asked, "Mom, has Dad been busy again recently?"
"Well, although he's retired, his generation's style of work and practical experience are rich, so there are some things he really needs to do." Ms. Meng said with a smile, "I'm the only one in our family who has nothing to do now."
"Didn't you study accounting? Isn't there any suitable job?"
Su Qinghu and Ms. Meng washed their hands and went to the living room together.
Ms. Meng: "I think taking care of children is also good. Being able to take good care of our children is better than finding any other job."
"You're right, but do you like this life of raising children?" Su Qinghu asked, "Have you ever thought about doing something you like?"
Ms. Meng: "Well, I'm already at retirement age, and it seems no one wants me anymore."
This is the reality, and it is helpless. Ms. Meng herself has no idea what to do about it.
Seeing her like this, Su Qinghu could probably guess that her mother-in-law was looking for a job as a retired old lady without the help of her father-in-law or her own strength.
Ms. Meng: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
If you can’t find a suitable one, just take care of the child.
Su Qinghu couldn't think of any good solution for the time being, so she just followed her mother-in-law, Ms. Meng's lead and changed the subject.
At this time, Dadan, Erdan and Qian Duoshu looked at the assembled typewriter in front of them and looked at each other in surprise.
"No more work." Erdan said.
Dadan didn't even look at him, isn't this obvious?
"Why?" Qian Duoshu held his little face in his hands, leaning his elbows on the table, and asked curiously, "Didn't Second Brother say that Big Brother installed it just as it was?"
Exactly the same, why did it work before but not now?
"Why don't we take him to my dad?" Qian Duoshu suggested.
Dadan and Erdan looked at him and said in unison, "No need."
"Why?" Qian Duoshu asked.
Erdan: "Your dad is a chemist. This thing is related to physics and mechanics or something. They are different. Your dad may not be able to repair it."
As he spoke, he raised his chin slightly and said, "For something like this, we don't have to ask your dad for help. Why don't we just go to a typing shop and pay them to fix it?"
Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.
That's right, he and his brother don't have any money at the moment...
He glanced at Su Qinghu who had entered the living room, then got off the stool and ran over. "Mom, I put the typewriter back together the way it was, but it doesn't work anymore."
"Yes." Su Qinghu responded, "Then take it and repair it."
It was expected and not difficult to accept.
"Everyone, get ready. Let's go." Su Qinghu waved his hand. "If you have any questions, think about them now. When we get to the typing shop later, you can ask the typewriter repairman if you have any questions."
Dadan and Erdan took action immediately.
Qian Duoshu: "Aunt, can I go too?"
"Let's go, what's the big deal?" Su Qinghu took her bag off the hook, casually played with her hair, and tied it up with a long ribbon. "Let's go together."
The group was getting ready when they heard someone knocking on the door. The voice sounded unfamiliar to everyone except Qian Duoshu.
"Zhang Dongsheng?" Ms. Meng turned to look at Su Qinghu, her expression unpleasant. "Does he often come here to harass you?"
Su Qinghu laughed, "Not really. I haven't been here since that time when I delivered the melons. I think the reason I came here today is probably about the project plan."
Su Qinghu told Ms. Meng about his encounter with Zhang Dongsheng in Shanghai.
Ms. Meng knew about this, so her expression softened.
It was also during that time that I caught people's attention, and it was also during that time that people started urging me to get married.
Su Qinghu: "I guess he's here to urge us to make progress today." She said as she opened the door.
Zhang Dongsheng looked unhappy when he saw Su Qinghu, "Did you trick me yesterday?"
No matter what he thought last night, he felt that Su Qinghu wanted him to fight with Li Chengwei and Wu Shixin!
Su Qinghu smiled and asked Ms. Meng behind him to show herself.
