Chapter 381: The sunset is infinitely good, but it is near dusk

"Tingchen, you're here, have you eaten?"

Mother Liu took the initiative to greet him. In this era, people's highest standard of welcome was to ask "have you eaten?"

If you haven't eaten, then eat at our house.

"Hmm, Auntie, I haven't eaten yet, but the nanny at our house is already cooking. I came over to send grapes to my sister.

I saw Xiong Ying taking Xiao Jie to play with mud, and couldn't help but scold their father and son, I hope you don't mind."

Gu Tingchen knew how to behave, didn't hide his actions, but instead took the initiative to expose them.

Little did he know, this frank and honest attitude made Father Liu and Mother Liu feel comfortable.

"What are you saying, child? How could I blame you? I'm too late to thank you."

Mother Liu took over the conversation, and sure enough, she saw that her son and grandson's faces and hands were dirty. Her son was washing his hands at the faucet and giggling.

In this appearance, where was there any sign of being bullied?

This marriage was right, the daughter-in-law was gentle to her son, and gave birth to a big fat grandson for their family!

The daughter-in-law's brother also treated her son as a normal person, didn't look down on him, and didn't kick them out of the game because he had already ascended, showing no ingratitude.

"Grandfather, Grandmother, eat, sweet."

Xiao Jie had already washed his hands. The grapes his uncle gave him were so sweet, he still wanted to eat.

But his uncle didn't give him much to eat, every time he fed him, it was very little. He saw his grandfather and grandmother, his eyes lit up, hoping his grandfather and grandmother would feed him more.

Nannan was quietly chewing on the grape flesh, her eyes bright as she looked at her father.

She felt that her cousin's father was so stupid, her own father was smarter.

"Nannan, call someone, call Grandpa Liu, Grandma Liu."

Gu Tingchen held his daughter and signaled his daughter to call Uncle Liu and Auntie Liu.

Actually, he knew very well in his heart that a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

He was a director now, but he had been in the position for less than a year, but Uncle Liu had been in this position for decades!

The network of connections was much stronger than his.

Only by maintaining a good relationship between the two families could he have profit to seek.

At worst, what he did could also contribute to his sister's status in the Liu family.

"Grandpa, Grandma, hello."

Where would a child understand anything, it was all taught by adults.

Daddy told her to call someone, so she called someone, but she consciously called them Grandpa and Grandma, which was an unintentional success.

"Good Nannan, Grandma likes you, Grandma will take you to the department store in a few days to buy beautiful little clothes, okay?"

Mother Liu was beaming with joy, very satisfied with Gu Tingchen, and loved the house and its crow.

Father Liu felt mixed feelings in his heart, hoping he hadn't misjudged the person.

Hoping Gu Tingchen was as harmless as he appeared now, so he would willingly pave the way for him.

Gu Tingchen stayed at the Liu family for a while with his daughter, and when it was about time, he got up to say goodbye.

"Uncle Liu, Auntie Liu, I'll bring Nannan to visit another day. Disturbing you.

I have something to do today, I'll go back and talk to the child's mother, so I won't disturb you, I'm going back first."

"Fine, fine, fine, then you go back first, bring the child and Meiqin over when you're free on the weekend.

Yinyin, she has been mentioning her sister-in-law recently."

Mother Liu nodded busily. Since her husband stepped down, he had become silent. Most of the social affairs in the family, if she was present, she would act on his behalf.

No way, her son wasn't capable enough yet.

As for her grandson, he still had to be raised for ten or twenty years before he could hold up the lintel.

The daughter-in-law was already good enough, not disliking her son, willing to give birth to a grandson and take care of the grandson for her, she was already satisfied enough.

After Gu Tingchen walked far away, Father Liu's shoulders relaxed, he leaned back on the rocking chair, sighed deeply, looked at the dusk and smiled bitterly:

"The sunset is infinitely good, but it is near dusk."

His political career had long ended, and replacing him were more patient successors...

He couldn't see through Gu Tingchen, so he simply stopped looking.

As long as the other party could take care of his children and grandchildren as agreed, he wouldn't care about the rest...

"Old man, why are you sighing?"

Mother Liu's vision was limited, she couldn't see anything.

She only saw that Gu Tingchen didn't disrespect them because he had already ascended.

He was still as good as ever to her son and grandson.

"Nothing, just thinking about some things, forget it, don't think about it.

What are we doing for dinner? Don't starve our big grandson."

Father Liu shook his head, couldn't explain it to his wife, so he simply didn't say it, saving his wife from worrying along with him.

Gu Tingchen went home, Auntie Wang had already cooked the meal, three dishes and one soup, neatly arranged on the table. The electric fan on the ceiling of the dining table was on, and flies and mosquitoes didn't dare to approach the dining table.

"You're back."

Ye Mei Qin wiped her wet long hair and walked out of the room in a bathrobe.

Although she had already given birth, her figure had recovered very well, her waist was slender, and she looked like she could be held in one hand.

Every smile and every frown showed charm.

Undoubtedly, his wife was becoming more mature and charming.

But in Gu Tingchen's mind, another face appeared, assuming the other party was his wife...

Thinking of this, he forced a smile—

"Hmm, just went to Uncle Liu and Auntie Liu's house. They said if you are free on the weekend, let's go to their house for a casual meal together."

"Mom, Mom, hug."

Nannan intervened at this time, diverting his attention.

"Hmm, okay, I know about the weekend."

Ye Mei Qin nodded, then hung the wet towel on the back of the chair, reached out to take her daughter into her arms, kissed her daughter's cheek, and smelled a fragrance of grapes.

"Nannan, you ate grapes, did you eat a lot? Can you still drink milk later?"

"Giggle."

Nannan was kissed by her mother and was beaming with joy, revealing a mouth of millet teeth.

"Sir, Madam, can we eat?"

Auntie Wang, wearing an apron, walked out of the kitchen appropriately, asking the two if they could eat, she would serve rice and arrange bowls and chopsticks for the two.

"Hmm, okay."

Ye Mei Qin spoke, and Auntie Wang naturally obeyed.

As for the sir's attitude, it was obviously no longer important.

Gu Tingchen's brows furrowed slightly, he didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Auntie Wang didn't seem to respect him that much.

Thinking of Auntie Wang's meticulous care for more than a year, he immediately felt that he must have thought wrong.

How could Auntie Wang not respect him?

Almost all his food, clothing, housing, and transportation were handled by Auntie Wang, and he almost didn't have to worry about the work at home.

He shouldn't have thought like this, he would tell his wife later and let his wife give Auntie Wang a raise in bonus.

Auntie Wang didn't know that she had been blessed by misfortune, originally almost overturned, but instead got an extra bonus... ===== CHAPTER 382 =====
