Sweet 80s

Lin Xiangdong's unintentional complaint just touched Wang Shuping's kind heart.

Only then did she realize that Yan Shengnan's feelings for Lin Xiangli had reached adolescence.

This age is when children tend to have conflicts with their parents.

In addition, Lin Xiangli was busy making money and neglected to discipline Yan Shengnan. At a young age, Yan Shengnan often heard complaints and slanders about her mother from her relatives.

The fact that their relationship did not break down is enough to show how well-behaved and sensible Yan Shengnan is.

While she longed for maternal love, she could not ignore the anger she had felt towards Lin Xiangli for so many years.

This complex emotion of love and hate can easily make people lost.

As a middleman, Wang Shuping played a role in buffering the conflict.

In this sense, this trip to the south is indeed necessary.

On the other side, Yan Shengnan was immersed in the joy of vacation.

She was not sure whether Wang Shuping would agree to go with her.

But based on her understanding of this easy-going aunt, Wang Shuping would most likely help her fulfill her wish of going to the south to see her mother.

Her small, delicate and short-lived heart, like a fawn in the woods, was curious about this matter every minute and every second.

Yan Shengnan lay alone on the bed with his eyes closed, imagining whether he should smile or keep a straight face as usual when he saw Lin Xiangli for the first time.

When is the right time to call out "Mom"?

Lin Xiangli's birthday is coming soon. Should I bring a gift to her before going? However, will it make her too proud?

There were all kinds of questions in her mind. She was just about to fall asleep in a daze when her grandmother's call woke her up.

"Nannan, come out quickly, your aunt Qianqian is here."

Although she was raised by her grandmother, every time Feng Qianqian came, her grandmother's nagging and dissatisfaction would disappear completely.

This is completely different from when Lin Xiangli was mentioned. They are two completely different attitudes.

She didn't like this contrast, and even hated the smiling faces of her family when they faced Feng Qianqian.

This made her feel fake and disgusting sometimes.

Because every time the "good aunt" that the whole family talks about comes, in the midst of the joy, I am the only one who feels like an outsider, or perhaps a superfluous person.

Ever since Lin Xiangli went to the south, the woman who appeared most frequently in her childhood was Feng Qianqian.

The other person spoke slowly and softly, his volume not much louder than the buzz of mosquitoes and flies in your ears in summer.

Logically speaking, this is a stage when the mother's company is needed.

A person with a bad temper and a loud voice who you seldom see.

The other is gentle, delicate and easy to talk to.

Yan Shengnan never denied the other party's efforts, but in his mind, this woman had never replaced his mother's position, not even for a moment.

Compared with Feng Qianqian, Wang Shuping's position in his life is slightly better.

She thought about this question but couldn't figure it out. Maybe it was just a vague feeling.

"Oh, I see!" Yan Shengnan responded, still lying lazily on the bed without moving.

She was annoyed by the sound of lively conversation coming from the living room, so she turned over and lay on her side, covering her ears with a pillow to block out the sound from outside.

After a conversation, there was a burst of laughter like a silver bell, but it soon disappeared.

The sound stopped almost instantly.

Yan Shengnan had no idea what was happening outside, so she suddenly pulled away the pillow that was resting on the side of her head.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence, the conversation resumed.

"Nannan, get up quickly. Qianqian bought you a lot of delicious food and new clothes..." Yan's mother urged.

"Oh, I know."

"You know what I mean, hurry up! We're all going to eat out in a little while. Get up quickly!"

Children all like to eat out, and Yan Shengnan is no exception.

She sat up from the bed with a bang, blinked her eyes and asked curiously, "Why are you eating out all of a sudden? What day is today?"

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Yan's mother's eyes.

She pursed her lips, seemingly not wanting to explain the reason, and just casually said, "Kid, what reason do you need to go to a restaurant?"

"My dad is so stingy. There must be something wrong if he pays for the dinner. What is it?"

"What's it to you? It's my birthday." Yan's mother said something nonsense and turned away.

Yan Shengnan kept silent, thought for a few seconds and retorted: "What? Grandma, your birthday was just over and you lied to me again..."

dinner time.

The four members of the Yan family plus Feng Qianqian were chatting and laughing at the table.

Feng Qianqian, who was sitting next to Yan Shengnan, kept putting food on her plate.

Yan Dahai on the other side looked at her and said, "Just eat your food and leave her alone. She's already that old, let her pick up whatever she wants to eat."

Yan Shengnan looked up at his father, then lowered his head and ate his meal in silence.

"I'm just afraid that she can't reach it." Feng Qianqian stroked Yan Shengnan's hair and said, "It's vacation time, right? Do you have any plans for the vacation?"

Yan Shengnan put down his chopsticks: "I want to go out of town to play, but my grandma won't let me."

When Yan's mother heard this, she immediately changed her attitude: "What nonsense! You just want to go to the south to visit your mother. If you want to go, just go. What's wrong with that?"

Yan Shengnan rolled his eyes: "That's not what you say at home."

"It's not because of your safety that I'm afraid you'll get lost. Human traffickers are rampant nowadays."

"My aunt is leading us there, how could we get lost?"

"Okay, okay, okay, now that your wings have grown big, I can't control you anymore. Go wherever you want. You are such an ungrateful little bastard."

When Yan Shengnan heard that her grandmother had let go, she confirmed it again and again.

"Are you serious? You're really going to let me go?"

"let!"

Yan Shengnan was visibly happy, but he didn't notice that the four adults remaining at the table were exchanging glances with each other.

over the next few days.

Wang Shuping communicated with Lin Xiangli about the arrival date.

Yan Shengnan was also excitedly preparing items that would be needed for the trip at home.

Before leaving, Lin Xiangdong drove a jeep from his workplace to take them to the station.

The children were chattering happily in the waiting room.

Wang Shuping once again explained to Lin Xiangdong the location and quantity of some commonly used daily necessities in the home, and told him to eat well and go to fewer social events and drink less.

"Don't worry, I'll remember everything you said and make sure it's carried out." Lin Xiangdong raised his hand mischievously and saluted Wang Shuping.

Wang Shuping put the other person's hand down with a smile.

"I believe it, but I can't guarantee that other figures won't affect you. Originally there was only one Zhou Zheng, and now there's another Xiao Xu..."

Dabao jumped out of his chair and said to Lin Xiangdong, "Dad, we have to feed the chickens, rabbits and dogs properly."

"Fuck you! You can't even say that I've done it well. Believe it or not, I'll beat you up."

Taking advantage of the situation, Lin Xiangdong raised his hand to hit Dabao, but Dabao made a face and ran away.

Lin Xiangdong continued.

"They can't take care of it. Something happened in Zhou Zheng's family a few days ago. His father accidentally fell and was hospitalized. He ran to the hospital as soon as he got off work. Xiao Xu..."

Lin Xiangdong heard from Zhou Zheng about the relationship between Xu Xinnian and He Na and was very worried.

"You know, he and He Na, I, I can't tell you..."

Looking at the other person's embarrassed expression, Wang Shuping was deeply touched.

"Indeed, if you tell others about what happened to you, they will know about it. If you don't tell others, I will feel sorry for Xiao Xu. It's like the son trying to persuade the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law when they quarrel - you are in a dilemma."

Lin Xiangdong nodded and remained silent.

"If you can't make up your mind about this, forget about it. Anyway, they've only known each other for a short time and they live in a city apart, so things won't develop too quickly. Let's talk about it when I come back."

"Well, I'll listen to you, my wife. You've worked really hard on this trip. You've suffered a lot more along the way with three children than at home..."

Wang Shuping felt very comforted after hearing this. It turned out that although Lin Xiangdong didn't mention it that day, he knew it in his mind.

Lin Xiangdong smoothed Wang Shuping's hair at the forehead and continued.

"The consumption level in the big cities in the south is definitely high. It's not easy to go there. Since we have decided to go, don't worry about the money. You guys may not have other skills, but you are still good at making money..."

Lin Xiangdong's words once again filled some of Wang Shuping's worries about the trip south.

It also completely offset all her fears about this journey.

No matter how tired she was during the journey, how painful it was to suffer from motion sickness, or how high the expenses were, she just needed to think that there was always someone at home waiting for her to come back.

Her heart is warm.

The voice announcement in the waiting room began.

Passengers gathered at the ticket gate one after another.

This is the first time they have been separated for a long time since they got married.

Wang Shuping looked at the green train parked not far away and Lin Xiangdong waving goodbye frequently, and a feeling of reluctance welled up in her heart.

"Come back, we're getting in the car."

"Have a nice trip and stay safe!"

Hidden in the two most ordinary sentences of conversation is the strongest love for each other.
