Chapter 668

~8 min read 1,520 words

"Grandmother, why are you here? You didn't even give me a call in advance, so I could go to the station to pick you up."

Seeing Wu Juying arrive at the alley entrance alone with a bundle on her back, Li Ye secretly complained in his heart, but still smiled on his face, reaching out to take his grandmother's bundle.

But grandmother Wu Juying blocked Li Ye and said with a half-smile: "Little Ye, how come I see you don't want me to come? What's the matter, you've become a deputy section chief, and I, your grandmother, can't even climb your threshold?"

"..."

Li Ye was startled and hurriedly denied: "Grandma, don't you know my character? Am I that unfilial?"

Grandmother Wu Juying had spoiled Li Ye since he was a child. It can be said that 80% of the responsibility for Li Ye's "Little Demon King" title back then belonged to Wu Juying, so even if Li Ye was beaten to death, he wouldn't dare to have the thought of not letting Wu Juying come to the door.

Wu Juying glanced at Li Ye and said lightly: "Then what were you hesitating about just now? Could it be that your mother is here?"

Li Ye's eyes widened immediately, and he had a deeper understanding of his grandmother's "old and refined."

Because Li Ye believed that elder sister Li Yue and Watching Wen Leyu would not communicate with his grandmother, and he didn't talk too much, how did his grandmother know?

She must have guessed it, right?

Li Ye swallowed and said awkwardly: "Grandmother, can you not quarrel with Mom later? Actually, there is no unsolvable contradiction between you... If you are not comfortable in your heart, at worst, I will be the punching bag between you."

"What are you doing in the middle? Since you were a child, when has grandmother ever let you be angry?"

Wu Juying gave Li Ye a fierce glare, then lifted her feet and walked toward Li Ye's house, saying as she walked: "I reckon your mother is coming soon too, I didn't expect her to arrive before me."

"..."

Li Ye watched his grandmother walk quickly toward the house and hurriedly followed.

But as luck would have it, Little Dun'er had already seen the candied haws outside, and his little hand pulled Li Ye's neck, not happy with "ah ah ah ah."

Grandmother Wu Juying looked back and asked: "What's wrong with Little Dun'er?"

Li Ye smiled: "He wants to eat candied haws. That thing is sour, I won't give it to him."

"Hmph~"

Wu Juying snorted coldly and said: "You didn't eat less when you were a child, why didn't you complain about it being sour?"

"..."

Li Ye felt a burst of guilt. In the past, whenever the family bought a candied haw, it must be Li Ye's. No one else could even think of a hawthorn. Whoever dared to be dissatisfied, grandmother would go up and spit on them.

You say such a grandmother, are you still afraid of quarreling with your own mother? How can that be justified?

"Ah ah ah ah~"

"Sigh sigh, candied haws, candied haws, you are just a little foodie..."

Li Ye turned around helplessly to buy candied haws for Little Dun'er, while quickly calculating in his heart how to resolve the collision between Wu Juying and Hearing Fu Guiru.

Both women have hard tempers and have touched guns. If they fight, it can be called a comet hitting the earth. What should be done!

It's just that Li Ye didn't notice that when he was running with Little Dun'er to buy candied haws, Wu Juying looked back at him, her eyes a little moist.

When Li Ye was still ignorant, he was always looking for his mother. Wu Juying was the one who held Li Ye like this to buy candied haws.

How can you let the grandson you raised from a child be angry on both sides?

Li Ye bought a handful of candied haws and hurriedly ran back.

But when he entered the house, he found that there was no storm in the house, but it couldn't be called harmonious either.

Grandmother Wu Juying had already untied the big bundle she brought and took out small clothes one by one.

There were tiger-head hats, tiger-head shoes, silk crotchless pants, cotton-padded small jackets, each with two sets.

Little wife Watching Wen Leyu happily picked up the tiger-head hat and said in surprise: "Grandma, how did you know it was twins? You actually made two sets in advance?"

Wu Juying said with satisfaction: "I'm not a god who can calculate. How could I calculate that you were pregnant with twins? Making two sets is for convenience in changing and washing. But I brought needle and thread, and I can make two more sets in a few days."

Watching Wen Leyu laughed and said: "Then Grandma, teach me, and I'll do it with you."

Wu Juying smiled and said: "Why do you children learn this? The daughter-in-law many years ago didn't learn it, and now it's popular to buy~"

"Grandma, I think buying is not as good as making..."

Watching Wen Leyu held the tiger-head shoes and was very rare, but suddenly felt someone kick her.

She turned her head to look at elder sister Li Yue and found that Li Yue was blinking at her.

Watching Wen Leyu also blinked and looked awkwardly at mother-in-law Hearing Fu Guiru.

Hearing Fu Guiru was looking coldly at her former mother-in-law Wu Juying, and that look was quite unkind.

Then, Hearing Fu Guiru dragged over two large suitcases and deliberately opened them in front of grandmother Wu Juying, revealing the full pregnancy and infant supplies inside.

The variety of pregnancy and infant supplies in the mainland in the 1980s was scarce, and these brought by Hearing Fu Guiru were all popular goods. But at this juncture, you brought them out. What are you doing?

Watching Wen Leyu looked innocently at Li Ye who had just entered the door, and the meaning was clearly "This is not my fault! Who knows that my mother-in-law is a stupid daughter-in-law who can't do needlework?"

Li Ye hurriedly smoothed things over: "Mom, Grandma, I bought candied haws, you try them, they are very sweet."

Watching Wen Leyu hurriedly cooperated: "Oh oh, just right, give me a string, I want to eat sour..."

"No!"

"No!"

Li Ye, Wu Juying, and Hearing Fu Guiru said in unison, which startled Watching Wen Leyu.

Grandmother Wu Juying said seriously: "Leyu, remember, you are not allowed to eat hawthorn while pregnant, it is very easy to have a miscarriage."

Hearing Fu Guiru looked at Wu Juying and said gently: "It's not that you can't eat it at all, but the fetus is unstable before five months, so you'd better endure it for a while!"

"..."

Li Ye was stunned for a moment, only then remembering that there seemed to be such a thing.

But the next moment, elder sister, mother, and grandmother all turned their heads together and scolded Li Ye sharply: "Little Ye, who told you to buy candied haws?"

"..."

Li Ye didn't dare to argue, so he had to point to Little Dun'er who was "baji baji" licking the candied haws.

"Big nephew, you help uncle carry this pot!"

"Baji baji, wuwuwuwu~"

The struggle between grandmother Wu Juying and mother Hearing Fu Guiru did not stop at the children's clothes, but also spread to Watching Wen Leyu's diet.

At noon that day, grandmother Wu Juying and mother Hearing Fu Guiru "jointly" made a table full of dishes, making Watching Wen Leyu, who had a big appetite recently, look at Li Ye for help.

The stewed chicken, stewed duck, stewed ribs, and big meat dumplings made by grandmother were all practical characteristics of northerners.

The oil-exploded shrimp, steamed fish, sea cucumber soup, etc., made by mother were all nutritious seafood.

Which one do you want Watching Wen Leyu to eat?

Even if she could eat more, she couldn't finish it, she couldn't finish it at all!

Li Ye rolled up his sleeves and was ready to show his ability as a big eater. If he let go and ate this table of dishes, he could eat half of it.

But Li Ye hadn't moved his chopsticks yet, when Wu Juying suddenly said: "Little Ye, take a bottle of wine and pour it for your mother and me."

"..."

Li Ye looked at his grandmother in surprise, and then looked at Hearing Fu Guiru.

Hearing Fu Guiru said lightly: "Take a bottle of red, your grandmother is old and not suitable for white wine."

Li Ye was a bit embarrassed. His own mother really didn't forgive people, Wu Juying, although over sixty, has always refused to admit she is old!

But this time Wu Juying didn't retort, but quietly waited for Li Ye to pour wine for her and Hearing Fu Guiru.

Then she picked up the wine glass and said to Hearing Fu Guiru in a deep voice: "Hongying! You've suffered all these years."
