A great director who grew up happily

On Saturday morning, Chen Jinnian looked at his mother, who had gained some weight, handed her the car keys, and said, "Mom, it's just an ordinary cram school. Is it necessary for you to come out in person?"

Su Ying took the key, slapped his hand angrily, and said dissatisfiedly: "Who are you calling old?"

He quickly retracted his claws and said with an apologetic smile, "It's all my son's fault for being ignorant. My mother is eternally young. But let my father go with me, so as not to tire you out."

Su Ying is now five months pregnant, and she is also an elderly mother, so Chen Jinnian still wants his mother to rest at home.

"That's nothing. When I was pregnant with you, I was already 9 months old and still working in the hospital. I'm not that delicate. Now I'm sick from staying at home all day."

After Su Ying finished speaking, she changed into white sneakers at the door and told him to go out quickly.

Chen Jinnian spread his hands helplessly, turned around and said to his father who was standing in front of the fish tank, "Don't forget about the phone. I left it on the table in the bedroom."

"Okay, your dad doesn't have Alzheimer's disease yet. He told me everything when he came back last night. Don't worry, he won't forget this little thing." Chen Ming waved his hand, asking him not to disturb him while he was feeding the fish.

However, Su Ying heard Chen Ming's words and shouted, "Chen Ming, stop playing with your broken fish. If you delay your son's business, I will smash your fish tank."

After hearing this, Chen Ming muttered, "This is custom-made glass. Can you break it?"

Chen Jinnian looked at his aggrieved father and patted his shoulder sympathetically. "Dad, we're leaving first. Remember to come home for dinner tonight."

"Oh, I see."

The mother and son left the house and took more than half an hour to reach the Nengcheng Education and Training Center to meet with the professional teacher as scheduled.

Chen Jinnian's purpose of studying was simply to pass the entrance exam to Beijing Film Academy. He himself had no intention of developing further in this area, nor did he think about how good he could be at painting.

In the eyes of professional teachers, these requirements are relatively simple. After learning test-taking painting skills for a period of time and practicing, you should be able to do it.

After clarifying the direction of improvement, the professional teacher also developed a corresponding course schedule for him, studying for three hours on Saturday mornings and weekends until before the winter vacation.

At that time, I will decide whether I need to participate in winter vacation training based on my study progress.

Su Ying had no objection to any of this. She just came out to get some fresh air today, so she quickly booked the place and paid with her credit card on the spot.

Seeing that everything was done, Chen Jinnian said, "Mom, let's go home."

"Go home? What home do you want to go home to? I have a lot of things to do today. The weather is getting cold. You should buy new clothes. Oh well, I finally came here, so I have to check your doghouse. Oh, and I also want to see if your Aunt Song Qian is here. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I have to have a good chat."

Su Ying began to list the things she planned to do today, which made him feel like hitting his head. Especially shopping for clothes, it was simply too torturous.

"Mom, let's not buy clothes. Autumn is so short in Beijing. It will be winter after just two days. Besides, I have to wear school uniform on a regular basis. I won't be able to wear them even if I buy them." Chen Jinnian tried to negotiate.

"Why can't you wear it? Just wear it at home after school. Really? You're so picky when your mother buys you clothes." After Su Ying said that, she pulled him away quickly.

Chen Jinnian, who had nowhere to escape, could only follow Su Ying and act as an emotionless clothes-trying machine. He would try on anything that Su Ying thought looked good.

What’s even more infuriating is that the shopping guide next to her was adding fuel to the fire and kept recommending things to Su Ying.

Chen Jinnian is a clothes hanger-on, and no matter what he wears, he never looks bad. This made Su Ying even more conflicted. She kept thinking about whether to buy them all, but buying them all would be a bit too much.

Finally, Chen Jinnian, who had lost his temper after trying on clothes, randomly picked a few pieces before finishing the job.

But the terrible thing is, this is just the beginning, it's the first one, there will be a second one, a third one, and so on...

Anyway, when Chen Jinnian sat back in the car, he felt more tired than after running ten kilometers, and he was mentally exhausted.

"Mom, it's almost time. Let's go back to Shuxiang Yayuan." He tilted his head to look at his mother Su Ying, his voice weak.

"Why are you in such a hurry? We haven't even reached the supermarket yet. I still have to buy you some food. Oh, and also buy something for Yingzi. What does she like to eat?" Su Ying asked while driving.

"What's the point of her liking it? The key is that Aunt Song Qian likes it. Otherwise, nothing you buy will enter Yingzi's mouth." He replied.

"Ah, when did Song Qian become like this?" Su Ying also looked at him in confusion.

This frightened Chen Jinnian so much that he sat up straight in an instant, "Mom, don't look at me, look ahead, ahead, the cars, watch out for the cars."

"Why are you yelling? It's not my first day driving." Su Ying said speechlessly. Her son was good in every way except that he was too cautious sometimes.

After parking the car in the parking lot, Su Ying continued to ask, "Son, you haven't told me yet, what snacks does Song Qian like? I can buy them for Yingzi."

Chen Jinnian got out of the car, held onto the door, and said, "Song Qian doesn't like snacks at all. She won't even let Yingzi eat anything she thinks is junk food, let alone snacks."

After closing the car door and taking the mother's bag, she said, "She's not allowed to eat anything delicious, like fried dough sticks, fried chicken, grilled sausages, cola, etc. But she's actually forcing Yingzi to eat sea cucumbers raw, without worrying about contracting parasites."

"Eat it raw? Song Qian is really crazy." Su Ying quickly shook her head. This was too scary.

However, it was precisely because of his reminder that Su Ying was in a dilemma when buying things. She was picky and could only buy some fruits and a box of yogurt for Qiao Yingzi.

"Mom, are you going to visit a patient? Hahaha." Chen Jinnian couldn't help laughing.

"Then you choose?" Su Ying said with a frown.

"No, no, no, if I were to choose, we wouldn't even be able to get through the door."

"It's good to know."

Chen Jinnian was queuing in front of the checkout counter with nothing to do, listening to his mother's concerned nagging, and occasionally nodding in agreement.

Just as I was looking around, I suddenly saw two familiar figures. When I looked closely, I found that it was Xiao Meng and Qiao Yingzi, talking and laughing, and paying at the cashier not far away.

This discovery shocked him to death. Why was Qiao Yingzi not at home learning how to come here to buy things? And why was Xiao Meng also here, mixing with Qiao Yingzi?

The key point is that his mother Su Ying is also here. If she saw it, wouldn’t it be the same as Song Qian seeing it?

If Song Qian knew about this, Yingzi's family would be in complete chaos.

Chen Jinnian quietly moved his body to block Su Ying's left side of the view, while silently telling these two guys to buy things and leave quickly.

But as luck would have it, these two people, carrying large and small bags, insisted on passing by the checkout counter where they were queuing, and bought milk tea when they went to buy CoCo.

Su Ying saw it clearly now, and she was about to call Qiao Yingzi's name.

"Ying... Yeah, yeah."

Chen Jinnian quickly reached out to cover it.
