Perhaps it was because Yu You's gaze was too direct that Wan Jingjing felt a little shy.
She tugged at the corner of Ying Kui's clothes.
"Don't scare people."
"We're all neighbors, so we should visit each other more often. I'm just being welcoming."
Ying Kui winked at Wan Jingjing, then picked up the bucket to help Wan's parents. He was like a hardworking little bee, busy and having a lot of fun.
Yu You and Yu Rou smiled at each other.
Just when everyone was enjoying themselves, a discordant voice suddenly came from the door:
"Jingjing, is it convenient for me to come in?"
Everyone looked at him, and they all showed displeasure, even a little wary.
Yu Rou explained to Yu You that the person who came was Wan Jingjing's ex-mother-in-law, Zhuo Qiang.
Unlike the arrogance of last time, Zhuo Qiang was now standing at the door with her handbag, somewhat cowering, looking at Wan Jingjing almost pleadingly.
After all, she is an elder, and Wan Jingjing can't just let her stand at the door as punishment forever.
But she didn't want to lead the Peng family in, so she walked out.
"Let's talk outside." Wan Jingjing was polite but not respectful enough. "Auntie, are you here to discuss what happened before?"
"No, no, no, we were wrong for what happened before. We didn't realize Peng Nuan's true face. I came here just to express my apology."
Wan Jingjing pursed her lips.
It’s not that they didn’t discover Peng Nuan’s true identity, but even if they felt something was wrong, they paid more attention to Peng Nuan and ignored her.
It doesn't matter anymore.
She nodded. "I received my apology. Is there anything else?"
The implication was that she was going to kick the guest out. Zhuo Qiang quickly stepped forward and grabbed Wan Jingjing's hand, "Jingjing, the fault is all ours. I know I can't ask for your forgiveness, but Auntie only asks one thing of you: let us see Nuannuan again."
"Nuannuan is your child, and also our child. When Nuannuan was lost, my heart was broken along with it."
"For so many years, I don't know whether she has been doing well outside or whether she has been bullied. Can you just let your aunt take a look at her?"
There was no one following Zhuo Qiang, which showed that she came alone.
Unlike Bloomberg's statement that it was a matter of course, Zhuo Qiang burst into tears when she was moved.
She also truly loved Peng Nuan more than she did in the past. She cried all day long after her child went missing. When she heard that her whereabouts had been found, she cared the most about the entire Peng family.
Zhuo Qiang's tears rolled down onto the back of Wan Jingjing's hand. "I don't know what you said to Peng Bo. When we got home, he told us not to mention looking for Nuannuan again. But I'm really worried. Jingjing, I'm begging you. We don't need to meet in person, just arrange for me to see her once."
To say I wasn't moved would be a lie.
Wan Jingjing inevitably recalled the days when she had cried all the time.
Peng Zhendong and Peng Bo are men after all and still need to work outside, leaving only her and Zhuo Qiang to keep looking for people outside, and lick each other's wounds after finding nothing.
She believed that Zhuo Qiang really loved the real Nuannuan.
"What are you meeting?"
Ying Kui appeared behind Wan Jingjing at some point, stretched out his long arms, and pulled Wan Jingjing back with a slight pull.
He looked at Zhuo Qiang, who was crying with snot and tears, and said bluntly: "You know how to shake off the snot when it gets into your mouth. You know how to feed your child when he's dead. Don't even think about looking at him halfway."
"Why did Peng Bo give up on finding you? Old lady, don't think our little Jingjing is soft-hearted and come to provoke her. If you really have the guts, let your son or husband find her. Even if he does, it's considered a skill."
"If I can't find it, it only means that you and your family have no chance of becoming my daughter!"
Zhuo Qiang was most afraid of Ying Kui, and she even spoke to Wan Jingjing alone just to avoid him.
After being disturbed by him like this, she couldn't hold back her smile or shed tears, and could only stare at Wan Jingjing.
Ying Kui pushed Wan Jingjing without any hesitation and shoved her into the house.
"Don't be softhearted. They're using tactics. If one doesn't work, they'll try another. If you agree to take a look, it will turn into a meeting. Then next time, they'll have to snatch the person away!"
Wan Jingjing was pushed into the door by Ying Kui, and the door closed without hesitation.
He ran into Ying's father who was smoking by the door. He heard almost every word and looked at Ying Kui with a frown.
"You don't know etiquette. How can you talk to your elders like that?"
"Respect the old and love the young. She's disrespectful, and I won't tolerate her bad habits." Ying Kui waved his hand and told Wan Jingjing to go back to her room quickly. He then pulled his father aside and said, "Let me tell you, this old woman..."
After listening to Ying Kui's vivid description, Ying's father took a deep puff of cigarette and exhaled a long puff of smoke.
"The Peng family has been defeated."
"Isn't it? Let's not talk about the bad people. I'll pick up Yueyue from school at noon. Dad, when we have children, your cigarette——"
"Need you remind me? Go get to work."
Yu You and Yu Rou also discovered that in addition to Wan's parents, there was also a middle-aged couple. After Ying Kui introduced them, they realized that they were his parents.
The task of picking up the children was given to Wan Jingjing, Ying Kui and Yu Rou. Yu You took the initiative to undertake the task of buying groceries, leaving several elders to prepare the kitchen.
There weren't that many people eating lunch, but it was no less than a dinner party, so the preparations were a bit rushed.
Fortunately, although Yuyou is not a good cook, he has been watching Cao Xiu work by the stove for many years and has memorized most of the steps. He can guide them and save a lot of time.
More than ten dishes were prepared in the shortest time possible, and Ying's mother also cooked two famous Jinling dishes herself.
Salted duck and squirrel fish.
The squirrel fish was fried until golden and translucent, and the sauce was sweet and fragrant.
Yu You knew at a glance that it was prepared for children.
As soon as the food was served, Feng Yuan and Feng Shuai ran in first and surrounded Yu You.
"Aunt, you're back! Did you bring any delicious food that grandma made?"
"Auntie, we all miss you so much!"
Yu You leaned down and asked, "Do you miss me, or the delicious food I brought, or the toys I bought?"
Feng Yuan and Feng Shuai exchanged a glance and shouted in unison, "We both want to!"
Yu You laughed so hard that she fell over. Her sister's twin sons were just so funny.
Yueyue was one step behind them and greeted everyone politely as she entered the door.
"Grandma, Auntie, Grandpa Wan, Grandma Wan, and the two grandparents, hello."
When Mr. and Mrs. Wan saw Feng Yueyue, they smiled even more happily.
"Good boy, go wash your hands and come to eat."
When Ying's mother saw Feng Yueyue nodding and leaving, her satisfaction rose several levels.
Such a wonderful granddaughter is like a pie in the sky, it’s a huge bargain for them!
She waved at Feng Yueyue and asked her to come over.
Feng Yueyue glanced at Yu Rou and only stepped forward after receiving a look of affirmation.
"You're so pretty, with a nice voice and a good personality. Grandma likes girls like you the most. Here, this is the schoolbag that Grandma bought for you. There are many school supplies in it. I wish you make progress in your studies every day."
