"Uncle, eat an orange."
Nini was very well-behaved. She peeled an orange and broke off a few slices to feed Song Tao.
"Nini, there are oranges in your uncle's pocket. You and mom can eat them together."
Song Tao was selling towels today, with many colors and styles, which were very popular among female comrades. The prices were affordable and cheap, so most of the female comrades who passed by and asked about the prices bought some. There were still two young female comrades choosing.
"Uncle, when will the triplets come back?" Nini wanted to play with them.
"I don't know either. Your cousin said he would be back in a month. He should be back soon." The last time Song Tao received a call from them was half a month ago, when they had not yet arrived in Guangzhou.
"I really want to play with my brothers. They are so funny."
It's summer vacation now, and Song Yan has to go to work. She sends Nini to her grandparents every morning and asks her grandmother to help her take care of the child.
Nini usually plays with the other kids in the compound, but there are always some who tell her that her parents are divorced and laugh at her behind her back. She feels unhappy when she hears that and doesn't like to play with them much anymore.
"When your cousins come back, I'll tell you and take you to play with the triplets." Song Tao touched her head with his backhand.
"Okay." Nini grinned.
Li Chong quickly finished his meal and came over to replace Song Tao, "Taozi, go eat."
Song Tao took the food and sat down aside. Seeing that Cui Wendong was also busy, he only took two bites of the food and put it aside. He reached out to help him close the lid of the lunch box, and then took his niece in his arms and ate while talking.
After Cui Wendong finished selling two orders, he picked up his food again and said to Song Tao, "Are there any more women's clothing and shoes from last time?"
"There's no more in the warehouse, and I'm waiting for new stock to arrive."
Last time, Yangcheng sent a truckload of newly launched women's shoes. The colors were bright and beautiful, and as soon as they were put on the stall, they were surrounded by female comrades. The whole truckload of goods was sold out in just over a day, and the profit was much higher than selling towels.
"The goods have arrived. Can you give me a larger batch?" Cui Wendong discussed with him.
"How much do you want?" Song Tao asked him first.
"About a thousand yuan."
The last time Cui Wendong got the goods, he made eighty or ninety yuan in one day. When he went to get the goods early the next day, the warehouse was out of stock. He regretted not getting more to store.
"Okay, I'll tell you when the goods arrive. Come and get them first."
Song Tao had known him for nearly a month and had a good impression of him. He asked, "You know my sister, so you should be in the same circle as our family. Which member of the Cui family are you from?"
When he asked this, Cui Wendong's expression was a bit complicated, "My father is Cui Ningyuan."
Song Tao: "...Are you Cui Zhiyuan's nephew?"
When he mentioned his second uncle, it was obvious that he had long known that his cousin's wife was his second uncle's daughter. Cui Wendong's eyes moved and he nodded: "Yes, he is my second uncle."
Song Tao was in a very complicated mood at this moment and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Cui Wendong was also a little embarrassed. He was silent for a few seconds before speaking again, "Tell...your cousin's wife that my grandparents asked my second uncle's classmates and relatives to deliver a letter to Country M. His classmate has replied, saying that my second uncle has received the letter and plans to return home this year. My second uncle already knows about your cousin's wife, and he will definitely find a way to see them when he returns."
Seeing that he took the initiative to tell this, Song Tao pondered for a moment and said, "I've heard some things about your family. As far as I know, your second uncle has severed ties with your family and has not been in contact with your grandparents for nearly twenty years. Your grandparents sent the news about my cousin's wife. What did they want to do? What plans did they have?"
Song Tao asked directly, and Cui Wendong's face stiffened a little. He twitched his lips and said, "Grandpa and grandma are stubborn. They do have some plans, but they are not targeting your cousin's wife. They are afraid of the power and influence behind the mother and daughter of the Gong family, so they won't have any plans against her."
What he said was clear enough, and Song Tao understood that the two elders of the Cui family would not have any plans for Gong Linglong, but they would have some plans for their son Cui Zhiyuan.
"You have three sons and two daughters. Now you've lost two sons and one daughter. Your other daughter has become your enemy, and now you're targeting your only remaining son. Your grandparents are experts at cheating their children."
Song Tao spoke in a gloomy tone. Seeing the bitter and helpless smile on his face, he thought he was a good person and reminded him, "After cheating on their children, they will probably cheat on their grandchildren. You are probably their next target."
"I have nothing and I am of no use. My family relies on me selling goods at the stall to support them. They won't cheat me." Cui Wendong has self-knowledge.
"They're all healthy and strong, but they don't think of ways to make money. They all rely on you to support them. Isn't this just cheating you?"
Song Tao has known him for so long, but he has only seen his sister occasionally helping to sell goods. No one else has ever come to visit him, and no one has even brought him a meal.
Cui Wendong is now renting a house outside, having moved out under the pretext of needing a small warehouse to store goods. He sighed, "My grandparents are old and not in good health. My mom has to take care of them, my nephew, and the housework. It's hard to find work outside, so my sister and I are the only ones who can support them."
"How can your grandparents be so sure that your second uncle will help them when he comes back?" Song Tao was curious about this.
"Maybe they have a way."
Cui Wendong is not as optimistic as his grandparents. He has never met his second uncle, but from the fact that he has not contacted his family for 20 years, it can be seen that his personality may be very similar to that of his aunt. Even if he comes back, he may not forgive the past. At most, he will give some financial support out of gratitude for his upbringing.
Gong Linglong received the ordered bedding the next day. They then went to a coastal town and bought a lot of dried seafood and fruits unique to the south.
After returning to Guangzhou, they rested for a day, took their three children to see a movie, ate and drank everywhere, and then bought plane tickets, and the family of five took off back to Kyoto.
I traveled to many cities this month, from the east to the south, and had a relaxing and happy life.
Since they got married, the couple have been busy with work. Later, Gong Linglong became pregnant and gave birth to a child. They have never gone out to play and relax. This month, they put aside all work and personal matters and devoted themselves to relaxation and play. They lived a very happy life.
The same goes for the triplets. Although the scenery here is far inferior to that of the cultivation world and the resources here are also very poor and scarce, with their parents by their side, they feel the warmth they have never experienced in their previous lives.
Along the way, Gong Linglong took a lot of photos and used nearly ten rolls of film. She planned to develop all the photos after returning to Kyoto.
This was a happy moment between them and their child, and it was their first trip. It was worth commemorating and worth reminiscing about in the future. She must preserve this precious memory and look back on it when she is old.
