Chapter 216: The Ill-Intentioned Grandma Is Coming
Lu Zirui pursed his lips and adjusted his emotions, he couldn't pass on this bad mood to his family during the Chinese New Year.
"Yes, I know, I just feel sorry for you that it was too hard at that time."
Shen Qianqian shook her head, held him and winked, and smiled playfully.
Standing in the courtyard and guiding Lu Zirui to climb the ladder to paste the Spring Festival couplets, Lu Zirui naturally followed Shen Qianqian's words with a good temper, a little higher, a little lower, a little left, and a little right, without the slightest impatience.
Mother Liu was busy in the kitchen, and when she heard Shen Qianqian's voice in the yard, she couldn't help laughing.
It's really a blessing to meet a good man, who can take care of his family and make money.
Liu's mother is also going home for the New Year, but today is a reunion dinner, and the child in Shen Qianqian's belly is less than three months old, and if she stands by the stove for a long time, she is afraid that she will be uncomfortable.
simply made them a reunion dinner, and she went back, and they just had to heat up a little bit of food in the evening.
After pasting the Spring Festival couplets, Shen Qianqian deliberately guided Lu Zirui more, which also made Lu Zirui's face much better, and he picked up Nuan Nuan again, and the family walked into the hall.
Liu's mother cooks, and the two of them make dumplings.
Waiting for Liu's mother to bring all the prepared meals to the hall, Shen Qianqian saw that Liu's mother made twelve dishes alone, and Shen Qianqian smiled while making dumplings.
"Mother Liu, are you going back for a few days, are you afraid that we will be hungry and cook so many dishes?"
Mother Liu smiled and wiped her hands on her apron.
"No more, no more, today is a reunion dinner, let's be lively."
Shen Qianqian also smiled.
"Yes, if you are not here, there are four people in this family, and you want to have a good New Year."
Mother Liu helped Shen Qianqian and them wrap the dumplings, freeze them in the refrigerator, and leave in a hurry.
Before leaving, Shen Qianqian directly sealed a big red envelope for Liu's mother, and she must accept it.
This is also decided by the two after discussing with Lu Zirui, Liu's mother has brought Nuan Nuan very well for most of the year, they have hardly worried about the child, and then there is still a little guy in the belly who needs to be taken care of by Liu's mother, and it should be expressed.
Liu's mother couldn't refuse, and finally took it.
In fact, even if Shen Qianqian doesn't seal red envelopes during the New Year, Liu's mother has no complaints.
The monthly salary of bringing Nuan Nuan here is more than double that of those who work in the factory, although it is tiring to take care of children alone, but as long as Shen Qianqian or Lu Zirui is at home, she will not stand idly by, either take care of the children by herself, or cook and do housework by herself, she is still more worry-free.
And Shen Qianqian is not a calculating master, anything she does, Shen Qianqian has never doubted it, which makes her very comfortable here.
After sending Mother Liu away, Shen Qianqian and Lu Zirui returned to the hall for New Year's dinner.
At noon, every household began to set off firecrackers, and Shen Qianqian also asked Lu Zirui to light a firecracker in the yard.
Lu Zirui covered Shen Qianqian's ears, Shen Qianqian covered the warm ears in Lu Zirui's arms, the family watched the small firecrackers crackle and explode on the ground, Nuan Nuan had never seen firecrackers, she couldn't hear the sound, she laughed happily.
In the afternoon, the sky suddenly became overcast, and gradually snowflakes fell.
Lu Zirui and Shen Qianqian sat in the hall on the fire, eating candy and peanuts, looking at Nuan Nuan and babbling.
The fire was warm and warm.
Bang Bang Bang!
There was a sudden knock at the gate of the courtyard, and it was the sound of someone knocking on the door.
Shen Qianqian and Lu Zirui were stunned at the same time, there were still people coming to visit the door at this time?
Taking the warmth in Lu Zirui's arms, Lu Zirui got up and walked out, and Shen Qianqian saw Lin Xuan behind Lu Zirui, walking in with a snowflake.
Lin Xuan was also followed by a person, and there was snow on his head and shoulders, and he didn't look very happy with his unhappy face.
Shen Qianqian didn't notice the people behind her, but when she saw Lin Xuan, she was a little surprised, but she also had a hint of joy.
"Dad, why are you here?"
Lin Xuan dusted off the snowflakes on his shoulders and looked at Shen Qianqian, with a bright smile on his face.
"Of course I want to come to see you for the New Year, but fortunately I came smoothly."
Lu Zirui also followed Shen Qianqian and shouted Dad.
Shen Qianqian couldn't help laughing on the side, Lu Zirui shouted dad more smoothly than her.
Following Lin Xuan came in was an old lady, who looked to be in her sixties, wearing a gray woolen coat and black pants with straight sewing, because the snow was falling and the color of her hair could not be seen, but at first glance, she was not smiling all year round, and her mouth was full of smiling fine lines.
Shen Qianqian suddenly seemed to react, this was Lin Xuan's mother, that is, her grandmother.
Last time, Lin Xuan said that grandma just has some opinions, but people are still good, but she thinks that if she is good, she should be like Lu Zirui's grandmother, although she is an old man in a large family, she is very approachable and will not put on a random face.
And the woman in front of her made her look uncomfortable for no reason.
Lin Xuan saw that Liu Ailing's face was not good, and the smile on his face was also accepted.
He wasn't going to bring Liu Ailing over, but she had to come and see.
Lin Xuan didn't know her thoughts, Liu Ailing didn't want Lin Xuan to recognize this daughter, and now his reputation was not only his own, but also the Lin family.
His father is gone, and the family has to rely on Liu Ailing to support her, so she doesn't want a so-called daughter she has never seen at all to affect their family.
"Qianqian, this is your grandmother."
Liu Ailing looked at Shen Qianqian, her face softened a little, her eyes looked up and down calmly, and nodded.
"Good looking, a good boy."
There was no excitement at all, as if it was just meeting an ordinary person.
Liu Ailing was like this, Shen Qianqian was even less excited, and called grandma with a polite smile, and her tone was alienated.
turned around and moved the stool out, let Lin Xuan and Liu Ailing sit, and then went to make tea for the two.
They came out with fruit and snacks and placed them on the low table in the hall.
Liu Ailing glanced at the porcelain jar where the tea was made, and instead of reaching out to serve the tea, she looked around at the room and turned her head to look at Lin Xuan.
"Qianqian lives here? It looks like the environment is good and the yard is clean. ”
Lin Xuan also came to Shen Qianqian's house for the first time, and this address was asked when he came here last time.
"Well, Qianqian is a good boy."
Liu Ailing changed her words.
"But at such a young age, I got married and had children, I should have studied more, you see who in our family is not a college student, and now there are adults who are old at night, and you let her continue to study when you turn around, girls still have to study more."
Shen Qianqian was not happy, snorted lightly, didn't look at them, just teased Nuan Nuan.
Liu Ailing could hear Shen Qianqian's displeasure and sarcasm just now, and immediately frowned.
Lin Xuan glanced at Liu Ailing, and his brows were furrowed.
"Whether you read or not, Qianqian herself has the final say, and I'm happy that she is doing well now."
Liu Ailing was almost angry with Lin Xuan, she choked on a sentence and couldn't speak, looking at Shen Qianqian, who was teasing the child.
"Your father went back and told me that with a big girl like you, I still don't believe it, I haven't seen your father deal with anyone, how can I have a child, if it weren't for your father's constant assurance, I would still be unbelievable, but I have wronged you all these years."
