Hearing that Su Caicai went out to play, although Jiang Mao was a little disappointed to see no one immediately, he didn't immediately urge someone to bring the child back. Instead, he sat down and chatted with Su Lingchuan, talking about Su Lingchuan's case.
Knowing that Du Cheng and the third prince had capsized, Su Lingchuan was a little excited, and rarely chatted with Jiang Mao.
The father-in-law is rarely so enthusiastic, and Jiang Mao has to show face. In the winter, the two sat in the living room and chatted. Jiang Mao told him the situation in Beijing in detail.
It was very cold at this time, and there was nothing to keep warm while sitting in the main room, so the two of them drank the hot tea that Mrs. Su handed over. After a while, the hot water ran out, so Mrs. Su had to boil it again.
Because the kitchen is prone to produce a lot of oil fume and steam, so the Su family's pot is next to the window.
The windows are made of wood, and the fume and steam can easily escape as soon as they are opened.
Mrs. Su was boiling water with the window open.
Sitting on the stool, suddenly, there was a very obvious "wipe-wipe-wipe" sound amidst the whirring fire.
Mrs. Su stood up immediately and walked out of the kitchen. The voice was familiar to him, it was Su Caicai's footsteps.
I don't know where this little thing came from. He can't lift his feet high when he walks, and his shoes grind and grind on the ground. It's time to run out of shoes.
Seeing that it was indeed Su Caicai who came back, Mrs. Su was still a little surprised. It's not time for dinner today, and it's usually early when I come back.
"Cai Cai—" Seeing him walking slowly from the snow with small steps, his body swaying and looking like he was about to fall down at any time, Mrs. Su wanted to hug him when she went out.
Su Caicai ran into the kitchen one step ahead of Mrs. Su.
Holding grandma's hand, Su Caicai walked towards the kitchen, holding her finger in her mouth, drooling and looking into the pot vigorously.
In the main room, Su Lingchuan and Jiang Mao are still talking, but they have reached the end.
"I'm here this time to pick you, your wife, and Cai Cai back to Beijing." Jiang Mao paused while shaking the somewhat hot cup, and said, "Maybe it's a bit rushed, but if possible, I hope to catch the New Year's Eve." Go back to the capital." Qingbai is still waiting at home. I don't worry about him being alone.
Su Lingchuan nodded understandingly, he also knew what kind of virtue his son was, not to mention Jiang Mao, even he was not at ease.
"When to set off?"
Jiang Mao said: "Just wait for you and your wife to pack up, anytime."
Everything is settled.
"Then, you prepare first, I still have something to do, I will come to see you later... and Cai Cai." Said, Jiang Mao got up and said goodbye.
Su Lingchuan didn't keep him after hearing what he said, and sent him to the door.
As soon as he walked out of the door, Jiang Mao was stunned. He looked at the small footprints from outside the door to the kitchen, and turned his head to look at Su Lingchuan, "Cai Cai is back?"
"It looks like I went to the kitchen." Su Lingchuan nodded, he saw it too, and he took Jiang Mao to the kitchen.
In the room, Su Caicai couldn't believe that there was no delicious food this time.
Grandma once again told him regretfully that there really wasn't one.
Su Caicai didn't believe it, and was supported by her grandmother to the stove. Then I watched grandma uncover the pot. There was indeed nothing in the pot, only a pot of water that hadn't boiled.
As soon as Jiang Mao came in, he was startled when he saw Su Caicai stretching out his small hands to grab the edge of the pot, as if he was about to get out of the pot.
Seeing the person coming, Mrs. Su also felt a little embarrassed, she quickly hugged Su Caicai down.
But because of the father and son, seeing Jiang Mao, Su Caicai did not treat him as coldly as the person who brought him food before, but shrank into grandma's soft arms, with his fingers in his mouth, his eyes wide open. eyes on him.
Compared with when Jiang Mao left, Su Caicai has changed quite a bit, she is taller, thinner, darker, er... a little sloppy.
Jiang Mao was very excited, he took a step forward and said softly, "Does Cai Cai still remember Daddy?"
Su Caicai still stared at him with her finger in her mouth.
"Let Daddy hug me." Jiang Mao stretched out his hand towards Mrs. Su.
Now Su Caicai reacted, he plunged into Madam Su's arms, hugged Madam Su weakly with some short arms and did not let go. Obviously unwilling.
Although Su Lingchuan didn't want to see him because Jiang Mao abducted his good son, but the matter has come to this point, and his son and Jiang Mao can't run away for the rest of their lives. At this moment, for the good of Su Caicai's future, he still hopes that Su Caicai can handle the father-son relationship with Jiang Mao well.
So he stepped forward and said to Su Caicai, "Caicai, this is your father, call him quickly."
Mrs. Su also advised him.
Su Caicai was still a little uncomfortable. Now that the three adults were forcing him to call a man he had barely met, he finally couldn't hold back and burst into tears.
Su Caicai is still young, he is not called Jiang Mao's father, and the others did not treat him badly as a child.
Jiang Mao locked his eyes on Su Caicai, although he felt a little uncomfortable, he finally forced a smile and said, "It's okay, take your time in the future."
The only blame is that he failed to be a good father and failed to grow up with his children.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment, Madam Su quickly changed the subject, "It's getting late, I'll cook a meal, you go out and chat for a while, the meal will be ready soon."
Jiang Mao grabbed Mrs. Su's job, "I'll do it."
"Then why are you so embarrassed?" Jiang Mao is a guest and a prince, Mrs. Su can't let him do it no matter what.
"You are an elder, why are you embarrassed?" Jiang Mao smiled and looked at Su Caicai, "Besides, I haven't cooked for Caicai for a long time."
Hearing this, the three of them all looked at Su Caicai. Mrs. Su also compromised, and let Jiang Mao do his best to be a father for Cai Cai.
Being looked at by everyone like this, Su Caicai shrank her neck and buried herself in Madam Su's arms.
Both the Su family's old couple had tasted Jiang Mao's handicrafts. Compared with Mrs. Su's handicrafts, it was simply a rare delicacy.
Even the smaller Su Caicai was eagerly looking forward to the smell.
When he first came to this world, because he wanted to sell it to others, Jiang Mao had a particular habit of cooking, not only to eat delicious food, but also to look good and smell good.
The meal was on the table, and when she saw her grandparents sitting around the table, Su Caicai also put down her heart and began to eat.
Seeing Su Caicai's eating, Jiang Mao stood there holding his chopsticks, with a troubled expression on his face, and finally thought about the tense relationship between their father and son at this time, and finally said nothing.
It was a while after they finished their meal that Su Qingtong came back with her daughter in her arms.
Mrs. Su took Su Qin over and let the little brothers and sisters play together.
Speaking of Suqin, ever since Su Caicai got mixed up with those mud monkeys, and without Jiang Mao washing him up all day long, his title of the most beautiful woman in the village has been given to Yuxue to be cute. Suqin.
