Hongdou glared at Su Su:

"I remember you said a long time ago that the custom here is that a couple cannot sleep in the same bed in someone else's house. This is not good for your family, right?"

"What's the good and bad? What's other people's homes and yours? This is our own home. Sleep peacefully. If we can have a baby, our dad can also become a grandfather."

Su Su cut off Hongdou's escape route with just one sentence.

Su's father laughed even more:

"If I become a grandfather, I will renovate the attic of this room and build a crib and a wooden cradle, and put a swing on the balcony."

"Dad, it's still early."

Hongdou quickly pulled Gu Junxie back to the house to sleep.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I only cleaned up two rooms in advance.

The rest are all booked out.

After all, they are husband and wife, so Hongdou will no longer be pretentious.

After a good sleep, Hongdou was awakened by the noise downstairs in the afternoon. She found that many tables had been set up in the yard. In addition to the relatives of the Su family who would come to eat, Su's father also prepared meals for all the guests staying in the yard.

It was so lively as if something big was going to happen.

Su Su was busy all night, shuttling between relatives and guests.

She proudly took Hongdou's hand and introduced her to all the relatives, which caused several relatives to come to Su's father privately and ask if our Su Su was a lesbian.

Father Su pointed at Gu Junxie who was helping in the kitchen and said to them:

"Did you see that tall and handsome young man? He is my second daughter's husband. They got married last year and their relationship is very stable. My second daughter came back with my eldest daughter to celebrate the New Year with me. My second son-in-law also came and spent the New Year at my house."

"Oh, I'm happy."

"It's OK, it's OK, go and sit down."

Dad Su couldn't close his mouth from laughing, and he even got a few more crow's feet.

Su Su even proudly told those relatives, "My sister is not very successful. She just manages a large company with tens of thousands of employees."

Uh......

Hongdou didn't dare to say anything other than drinking with him.

After finally accompanying Su Su to greet her, she finally sat down. Gu Junxie immediately brought her a large bowl of her favorite egg rolls:

"It's hot, eat it quickly."

Hongdou covered her stomach and said, "I can't eat anymore. I drank too much. I feel so full."

Gu Junxie wanted to sit down, but Su's father started calling again.

As soon as he stood up, Su Su came over and sat down with Hongdou to rest:

"Look, aren't you usually craving for our wine? You say you've tried wine brewed in many places, but none of them taste as good as ours. Today, the wine on the table is the most mellow and fragrant, so why don't you drink it? Although drinking alcohol makes you drunk, beverages make your stomach full."

Hongdou waved his hand:

"It's New Year's Day, it won't look good if you get drunk."

"Bah! Stop it. Tell me the truth, are you pregnant? Or are you trying to get pregnant?" Su Su felt that if a woman who loved drinking suddenly quit drinking, it was probably for the sake of her child.

Hongdou smiled innocently:

"I'm about to divorce him, why would I prepare for pregnancy? I'll give birth to the baby and let you take care of it?"

"Let me take care of the baby. As long as you dare to give birth, I will dare to take care of it. After all, I am the child's aunt, and an aunt is also a mother. I don't care about meeting at the top when the time comes. I will concentrate on taking care of the baby at home, so that you can focus on your career."

Su Su patted her chest and promised that she would be a super good aunt.

Red Bean Tucao:

"Those who have never taken care of a child think it's fun. If you were to take care of a child day and night, you would cry to death."

"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to go talk to my relatives."

Su Su stood up and joined the relatives in gossiping.

Hongdou suddenly fell into deep thought, took out her cell phone and looked at it, calculating the days. It seemed that her period was delayed, but her period had been delayed by about a week in the past six months, so she thought that maybe it would come in a few days.

"What are you thinking about?"

After Gu Junxie finished his work, he brought some fruit over.

Seeing Hongdou staring at the calendar on her phone, Gu Junxie quickly poured her a glass of warm water, "Is your period coming? Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you have a stomachache? Do you want to go upstairs and rest?"

Hongdou looked up at Gu Junxie, feeling vaguely like nausea.

But thinking about how much she had just drunk, maybe her stomach was full and uncomfortable, she stood up and said, "I feel uncomfortable after drinking too much. I'll go upstairs and rest for a while. You help Father Su. You've worked hard."

Back in the room, Hongdou looked through the chat records between her and Su Su last month. As each chat was postponed by a week, today was the day anyway.

Shouldn't...

Hongdou didn’t dare to think about it anymore. She covered herself with the quilt and fell asleep.

I slept well until the next morning, and the nausea-inducing feeling was covered up by the breakfast made by Su's father.

After having breakfast, we returned to the city and Dad Su accompanied us all the way to the intersection.

Seeing the lonely figure of Su's father through the rearview mirror, Hongdou couldn't help but sigh, "Yesterday, the family was so lively, but today he is the only one left. How sad must he be?"

"Don't worry. Why do you think I invited the guests who stayed here to dinner yesterday? Why did I try to get close to the gossip girls? I've already told them that the guests should eat out less and eat with my dad more often. They're all free. And the gossip girls, they've all come to my house, so my dad has to go and wish them a happy new year. He'll get used to it after a few days."

Su Su was also worried that no matter how long she stayed at home with her father, he would feel lost for a while after she left.

That's why I took the risk of being urged to get married and have children by the gossipy ladies and plucked up the courage to chat with them for most of the day.

"Also, before my mother passed away, she told me that she must find a new partner for my father. I've left this matter to the gossip girls."

Hongdou was shocked when she heard this:

"No wonder you ran away on the second day of the Chinese New Year. If our dad heard what you said, he would tear you apart."

After all, Su Ma had only been dead for less than half a year.

Mr. and Mrs. Su have such a good relationship that he probably won't have any thoughts in this regard for the next three to five years.

"Then what can I do? My mother has issued a death order that my father must find another one within three years."

"My mother is a bit too much."

"I think so too."

So Su Su ran away quickly.

Hongdou drove past the intersection. She turned a corner and drove a little further to get on the highway. Suddenly, she braked and stopped. Su Su was startled:

"What's wrong? Did you drop something?"

Hongdou looked ahead a little distance away, "Look who that is?"

There was a person in front of the car, standing in the middle of the road with his hands on his hips, looking angry. Su Su looked closely and shouted, "It's over. I forgot she was at home. There was such a big commotion at home yesterday. She must have known about it. What should I do now? Back off? Take another road?"

"That's too late."

Hongdou saw Zhao Ping's mother coming over with a rolling pin in her hand, and quickly got out of the car to greet her:

"Happy New Year, Auntie."

"What a bullshit! Nan Hongdou, give me back my son!"

Yu Xiuping grabbed Hongdou's arm, and Su Su got down from the passenger seat and hurried over. "Aunt Xiuping, what happened? What happened to Zhao Ping? What happened? Is he gone? Where is he? When did it happen? Was there a funeral? Where is he buried?"

Hongdou almost couldn't hold back her thoughts after Su Su asked this series of questions.

Yu Xiuping shouted angrily:

"Bullshit, who are you cursing on New Year's Day? My son is alive and well, shut up, if anything happens to my son, I will fight you to the death!"

Su Su laughed:

"Oh, he's not dead! You just told my son to return your son to me. I thought he was dead. I wondered why he didn't tell us so we could order a big dinner to celebrate."

"Mr. Su, shut up!"

Yu Xiuping was extremely angry.

Gu Junxie, who was following Hongdou and the others, also got out of the car and came forward to ask, "What's going on? What happened?"

"Nothing happened. Aunt Xiuping suddenly asked Hongdou to return her son. I thought Zhao Ping was dead. What a pity, he is not dead yet."

"you!"

Yu Xiuping was about to take action.

Hongdou hurriedly stopped him:

"Auntie, please talk to me nicely. What happened to Zhao Ping?"

"What's wrong? You're still telling me what's wrong? I've already checked it out. Zhao Ping didn't gamble or owe any money. It's all your fault. Not only is my son keeping the money and not giving it to me, but he's not coming back either. It's New Year's Day and I'm the only one left at home, feeling lonely. I've raised him for more than 20 years, but in the end I don't even have a son anymore."

Listening to Yu Xiuping crying miserably.

Su Su couldn't help laughing wildly:

"Aunt Xiuping, I didn't expect you to have this day!"

"Susu!"

Hongdou quickly stopped him.

Su Su smiled and tried to explain herself, "What I mean is, Aunt Xiuping, you are finally free and can live your own life. But Zhao Ping is already a grown man in his twenties, and you still rush to wash his underwear and socks every day. It's so embarrassing."

"It's time for him to grow up. When Mr. Gu was his age, he took over such a big company and supported tens of thousands of people. If he doesn't work hard when he is young, do you think you will wait for him to come back to you when he is old and has accomplished nothing and then die by your side?"

"If you ask me, if he doesn't come back for the New Year, then you should live your life the same way. When you have nothing to do, watch TV series, dance square dance with old men, or go out with a group of elderly people to see the world. The world is so big, and Zhao Ping is only a few pounds. People only live for a few decades. Don't you have to spend a few years for yourself?"

"What's more, if Zhao Ping finds a wife and has a baby, you will have to continue to take care of the baby. Aunt Xiupo, you don't have many good days left, so enjoy them quickly."

It seems...that's the case.

Yu Xiuping thought about it and realized that after she came back, she would have no shortage of money and no worries about food. She would run a small shop and earn some money every day. She would close the shop at dinner time in the evening, take a walk and dance square dance after dinner, and go to bed early if she could sleep, and if not, she would open the shop and continue to make money.

Life is quite leisurely.

While she was distracted, Su Su waved to Hongdou, signaling her to get in the car quickly.

Hongdou and Gu Junxie got into the car and drove to the front. After Su Su comforted Yu Xiuping, she patted her on the back:

"Aunt Xiuping, think about it, is this the truth? Think about it slowly, and feel free to come to me if you have any questions."

After saying this, Su Su ran away.

It was not until she got in the car and the two cars were out of her sight that Yu Xiuping came to her senses and slapped her thigh:

"You little bitch, I've been fooled by you again!"
