When Han Dong came back from his morning exercise, Zhou Shuping had already prepared breakfast.
Han Dong saw that his mother's face was longer than a donkey's. After his mother entered the kitchen, Han Dong whispered to his father: "Dad, does Mom know?"
Han Jianguo coughed twice and nodded.
"Then..." Han Dong was a little nervous seeing his mother like this.
"It's okay. We have to pass this level eventually." Han Jianguo said.
Zhou Shuping brought out the scallion pancakes.
Han Jianguo immediately fell silent. Han Dong smiled and said, "Mom, I'll bring Su Ran back for you to see today."
Zhou Shuping snorted coldly and turned away.
Who cares!
Su Ran was also eating breakfast. Lu Yu sat beside her and asked, "Ran Ran, are you going to Xiao Dong's house today?"
"Well, Han Dong's father said he wanted to meet me."
"Oh, so did you buy a gift for your first visit to someone's house? You can't go empty-handed."
"I bought it, I bought it. Didn't I go shopping with Ning Xi yesterday? There's something for everyone."
"When you go to someone's house, you should be polite. I know you are not very good at housework, but help out if you can. You don't have to do too much. It's good to have the intention. Especially mothers-in-law, they all like their daughters-in-law to do some housework and think you can take good care of their son. In the future, when you and Xiaodong are really married, Xiaodong will be busy with work, and you will still need to take care of the things at home." Lu Yu said.
Su Qingsong, who was sitting in a wheelchair, disagreed: "Yu, you can't teach your child like this. This is the first time our Ranran comes to visit us. She must be polite, but she doesn't have to work. Did you marry a wife just to work for her? It would be better to hire a nanny."
Lu Yu glared at him: "What do you know? How they live in the future is their business, they can negotiate and solve it themselves, but today is Ranran's first day at home, and she has to leave a good impression on Xiaodong's family. If my grandson wanted to bring a girlfriend home, and this woman didn't know how to do anything and didn't mean to help at all, I would be unhappy too."
"You women are so narrow-minded." Su Qingsong said angrily.
Lu Yu choked: "I am just narrow-minded, so what?"
Su Qingsong didn't dare to say a word, thinking: How dare I do anything? You are the Empress Dowager of the Su Family, and whatever you say is the truth.
Seeing grandpa admitting defeat, Su Ran wanted to laugh in her heart. She really envied the relationship between her grandparents, especially her grandpa. He held her in the palm of his hand and loved her all his life, giving in to her in everything. He said that one should not argue with a woman, but in fact, it was because of his love and doting that he was willing to give in.
"Grandpa and grandma, don't worry. I will behave well. Han Dong is really good to me. I should make some sacrifices for him." Su Ran said.
Lu Yu glared at Su Qingsong and said, "You are not as sensible as Ranran."
At nine o'clock, Han Dong arrived on time. As soon as he arrived, Su Qingsong asked Han Dong to push him downstairs for a walk.
Su Ran felt that time was a bit tight, but it was difficult to stop him, so she wanted to follow him. Lu Yu held her back and told Han Dong, "Xiaodong, come back after a short walk. Don't delay too long."
"Okay, grandma, we'll go down first."
Han Dong pushed his grandfather out.
Su Ran said, "Grandma, it's already nine o'clock. It will take more than an hour to get to Han Dong's house! It's not good to go at dinner time."
Lu Yu said with a smile: "Why are you so anxious? Your grandpa knows what's going on. He's afraid that you'll suffer, so he wants to tell Xiaodong something."
"What else is there to explain?" Su Ran was puzzled.
"You are a silly child. You grew up with the love and care of your grandparents, but being a daughter is different from being a daughter-in-law. After all, the mother-in-law is not your biological mother. The key to a bad relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law lies in the man. Back then, your grandmother also disliked me and made trouble for me. But your grandfather was devoted to me, so she stopped when she saw that she couldn't make any waves. So, it is necessary for your grandfather to give Xiaodong a few words, to put it bluntly, to let Xiaodong express his stance." Lu Yu said.
Su Ran blinked and said, "Grandma, have you discussed this with Grandpa already?"
Lu Yu laughed: "Do we need to discuss this? We are an old married couple, how can I not know what he is thinking?"
"Grandma, I'm so lucky to have you and grandpa." Su Ran said sincerely.
Although she has no parents, she receives just as much love from her grandparents.
Han Dong and his grandfather went out for half an hour and then came back. Su Ran saw that both of them were smiling, so she thought they must have had a pleasant conversation, and she felt relieved.
Before leaving, Han Dong specifically said: "Grandpa and grandma, don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Ranran."
"Okay, I'm at ease leaving my Ranran to you." Lu Yu responded with a smile, while Su Qingsong looked calm.
After going downstairs, Su Ran got into Han Dong's car, a Jeep Grand Cherokee that looked quite new.
"Did you rent another car?" Su Ran asked. In fact, she didn't need to rent a car. She rarely drove her Audi, so he could use it.
"I didn't rent it. My sister insisted on buying it for me. She originally wanted to buy a Land Rover, but I told her not to buy it because I wouldn't stay in Shengzhou. She insisted on buying it, so she bought this. It has been kept in her garage. My brother-in-law drove over today. We each drove a car. It was obviously a car delivered to me." Han Dong said.
Su Ran thought to herself that Han Ting really loved her younger brother.
"Your sister and the others went there so early?"
"Yes, she came early to help. My mother bought a lot of vegetables." Han Dong said, but his mother didn't know that Su Ran bought the vegetables before going home today.
"Your mother...what did she say?" Su Ran felt a little uneasy when she thought of her future mother-in-law.
Han Dong freed one hand and held her hand: "Don't worry, I'm here!"
"It would be a lie to say I'm not worried. I know your mother doesn't like me, but I won't be afraid. With you here, I'm not afraid of anything." Su Ran smiled, her eyes shining.
Han Dong smiled, liking the feeling of being trusted.
Su Ran took a breath, cheered herself up, and felt like they were about to go to the battlefield together.
Ding Dong, the WeChat notification sound rang. Su Ran took out her phone and saw that it was a message from Ning Xi... Come on, an expression of hard work.
Su Ran replied with a smile: You’re awake!
Ning Xi: Let’s get to work.
Su Ran: What do you do on weekends
Ning Xi: I am waiting for your good news, and you are waiting for my good news.
Su Ran: Uh... have you taken another job
Ning Xi: Keep it secret, with a snickering expression.
Su Ran laughed. She was still so mysterious. This was unlike Ning Xi. Ning Xi was the kind of person who would hold back when something good happened, at least that was the case for her.
Su Ran was sending messages, and Han Dong was very curious, who was she chatting with so happily? However, he would not ask too much, as men should not be too gossipy.
The car drove for more than an hour and entered the compound.
