Since Su Mingzhe talked to his wife yesterday, Wu Fei also called her mother to briefly talk about Su Mingyu's situation this morning.
When Mother Wu found out, she sighed:
"I've seen a lot of parents who favor sons over daughters, but it's rare in the world to have such a preference for sons over daughters. It's a shame for this child to be born into our Su family!"
"Mom, thank you and Dad!" Wu Fei suddenly said something uncomfortable.
Mother Wu was a little confused: "Feifei, what did you say?"
"Mom, thank you and dad for not favoring boys over girls and making my life very happy when I was a child!" Wu Fei explained.
Mother Wu wiped her tears and said with a smile:
"You damn kid, Dad and I hate you. Otherwise, can we marry you to the United States?"
"This is called out of sight, out of mind!"
Wu Fei knew her mother was joking and said with a smile:
"You can't get rid of me. You will come when the Chinese New Year comes. Then let my dad go back by himself. You will stay with me for half a year!"
Mother Wu smiled fondly: "Let's talk about it later!"
"By the way, Mingzhe should come back today. It happens to be the weekend and I asked her to bring Mingyu's child over. I'll feed her some delicious food. The child has suffered a lot in these years!" Mother Wu suggested. .
"Okay, I'll call her later and ask for her opinion!" Wu Fei said.
Su Mingyu here did not choose to work overtime at the company after getting up in the morning, because she went to Shanghai with her elder brother Su Mingzhe today.
My sister-in-law Wu Fei made a special call to her this morning, asking her to take care of Wu's father and Wu's mother, who is not good at English, when she goes to the United States.
Then he also suggested:
"Mingyu, if you have nothing to do today, you and your brother will go to the magic city together. My mother said that she will prepare delicious food for you. You can also take care of us more when you have time in the country!"
Su Mingyu also felt that there was nothing to do today, so she agreed:
"Okay, then I'll go with my eldest brother. It just so happens that I also want to meet my uncle and aunt!"
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The brother and sister drove off after breakfast. Because Su Mingyu had to come back in the evening, they drove two cars.
In the car, Su Mingzhe called his mother-in-law. After getting through, he told her that he was going back today and that his sister was also a guest.
After Wu's mother got the news, she asked her husband to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Now he still lives in the old house, so shopping for vegetables is more convenient.
I have bought all the appliances for the new house, but I haven’t moved in yet and have been opening the windows for ventilation.
Su Mingzhe and Su Mingyu arrived soon. After all, Gusu is very close to the devil. They parked their car downstairs in the community and went directly upstairs.
After going upstairs, Su Mingzhe had the key and opened the door directly. Mother Wu was still busy in the kitchen.
Wu's father happened to come out of the kitchen with food and saw the two of them:
"Mingzhe, this is Mingyu, come in quickly!"
After that, he shouted towards the kitchen:
"Honey, Mingzhe and Mingyu are here!"
Su Mingyu also greeted Wu's father: "Hello, uncle!"
"Okay, you're tired from driving, we'll have dinner soon!" Wu's father said enthusiastically.
Su Mingzhe took out a pair of slippers from the shoe rack and handed them to Mingyu.
Mingyu took it and was about to change his shoes.
At this time, Wu's mother just walked out of the kitchen, quickly stopped Su Mingyu, and took out a new pair of slippers from the drawer next to her:
"Kid, you wear this, this is new!"
"Thank you, auntie!" Su Mingyu took the new slippers handed over by Wu's mother and changed them.
After Su Mingyu changed into slippers, Mother Wu said to her husband again:
"Look at you, these new slippers are in the cabinet next to you. How many times have I told you, but you still let your child wear old slippers!"
"Didn't I forget?" Wu's father argued.
"Forget this, forget that, just eat and drink, you can't forget!" Wu's mother glared at her husband and said.
"Okay, bring out the soup from the kitchen quickly, the children are hungry!" Father Wu said.
"Yes, yes, eat first!"
After speaking, Mother Wu turned to Su Mingzhe and Su Mingyu with a smile and said:
"Stop standing around. Mingzhe, please take your sister to the dining table and sit down. I'll bring out the soup from the kitchen and we'll eat!"
"Mingyu, if you want to wash your hands, the bathroom is over here!" Su Mingzhe pointed to the bathroom and said to his sister.
Su Mingyu washed her hands in the bathroom, while Su Mingzhe went to the kitchen, washed his hands and helped his mother-in-law bring out the soup.
Putting the soup on the dining table, Su Mingzhe sat down with his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and saw that Mother Wu had cooked a lot of dishes on the dining table today, including braised pork, braised catfish, fried river shrimp and more than 10 dishes.
When Su Mingyu came out of the bathroom and sat down at the dining table, Mother Wu said:
"Son, going to Auntie's place is just like going to your own home. Auntie doesn't know what you like to eat, so she just made some home-cooked dishes. How about trying Auntie's cooking!"
Last night I gave Su Mingyu a prawn.
Su Mingyu was flattered and said:
"You're welcome auntie, it's already good!"
Father Wu also opened the liquor, poured a glass for himself and Su Mingzhe, and then looked at Su Mingyu:
“Can Mingyu have a drink?”
"This..." Su Mingyu was a little embarrassed.
"Didn't you see that the child came by car? How can he drive back after drinking?" Mother Wu came to Su Mingyu's rescue.
Father Wu slapped his forehead: "Look at my brain, let me forget it!"
Then he walked to the kitchen refrigerator and took out a bottle of drink and handed it to Su Mingyu:
"Then let's have a drink instead of wine. Let's have a toast. We welcome Mingyu to our home. I hope you won't be restrained and come here often in the future."
The four of them raised their glasses and drank together.
Well, Wu’s mother drank plain water, and she didn’t like drinks very much.
The more Mother Wu looked at Su Mingyu, the more she liked her. She smiled and gave Su Mingyu a piece of braised pork:
"Mingyu, you are too thin. Gusu is also very close to the Magic City. If you have nothing to do on vacation, come to Auntie's place and Auntie will prepare delicious food for you."
Father Wu echoed: "Son, judging from your sister-in-law, we are not outsiders. From now on, coming here will be just like going back to your own home!"
Seeing that Father Wu and Mother Wu were very enthusiastic, Su Mingyu nodded in agreement:
"Thank you uncle and aunt, I will come over when I have time!"
After taking a few bites of food, Su Mingzhe raised his head and asked his mother-in-law sitting opposite:
"Mom, have we bought all the appliances for our new house?"
"I've bought everything, and I've been opening the windows for ventilation. I plan to move there in the next two days!" Wu's mother replied.
At this time, Su Mingyu picked up the drink and said:
"Uncle and aunt, thank you for your hospitality. My brother and my sister-in-law are abroad. If you need anything in the future, please call me!"
Others joined in for a drink.
The four of them were talking and laughing, changing glasses.
After three drinks and five dishes, Mother Wu and Su Mingyu had finished eating and went to the living room to chat.
Now only Wu's father and Su Mingzhe are still drinking at the table
Wu's mother sat on the sofa next to Su Mingyu. She took Mingyu's hand and said sincerely:
"Son, you suffered a lot when you were a child. Your sister-in-law told your aunt that if you suffer any grievance in the future, you should come to her."
Wu's mother is a sentimental person, and the more she looks at Su Mingyu, the more she feels connected to her.
Su Mingyu was also very moved. She felt that the person she had just met was better than her mother Zhao Meilan. She was so moved by what Wu's mother said that she cried.
Mother Wu held Su Mingyu in her arms and wiped her tears:
"Don't cry, kid, this will be your home from now on!"
Su Mingyu unexpectedly found some long-lost maternal love in Mother Wu's arms.
While chatting, I slowly fell asleep.
Wu's father and Su Mingzhe had already finished drinking, and they went downstairs for a walk.
Mother Wu put the sleeping Su Mingyu on the sofa, covered her with a blanket, and then went to clean the kitchen.
