At night, Bai Lu covered the sleeping Jin Bao with a quilt and walked out of the room softly.
After whispering "good night" to Bai Xing, she helped turn off the lights in the room, and then slowly closed the door.
When Bai Lu was about to go back to her bedroom, she suddenly heard a "swishing" sound coming from the kitchen.
Thinking there was a mouse, she hurriedly walked to the kitchen and turned on the light.
"Mom," Su Xiaosi walked out from behind the cabinet, "It's me..."
Behind him was his younger brother Su Xiaowu, who also slowly walked to the cabinet with his head lowered, "I didn't want to steal food."
"What's going on with you two kids?" Bai Lu asked, "Do you want to eat up all the cake?"
"No, no, I didn't want to eat them all, I just wanted to have another one because it tasted so delicious. The last time I had chicken cakes, my uncle bought them. It's been many years, and our family has never bought any again."
After Su Xiaosi said this, he added: "Mom, don't blame Xiao Wu, he was brought here by me."
"As an elder brother, if you don't teach your younger brother to read and study well, you will lead him around and have fun."
When Bai Lu was talking, Su Jianmin walked out of the room and asked doubtfully: "What's going on?"
"It's nothing. It's just that Xiaosi and Xiaowu wanted to eat more cake secretly, but I found out," Bai Lu explained with a smile, "I was shocked just now. I thought there was a mouse in our kitchen.
Woolen cloth."
After hearing what his wife said, Su Jianmin stepped forward and lectured: "Su Haojie, how old are you? You are still so greedy. Your beautiful sister bought this for Jinbao to eat. If you eat it all, what will Jinbao eat?"
Su Xiaosi lowered his head, "I was wrong..."
"Really, you say you are an adult and not a child, but what do you do like an adult?"
After giving some education, Su Jianmin opened the door of the cupboard with the key, took two pieces of chicken cake and handed them to Xiaosi and Xiaowu respectively, "Eat it. If you want to eat anything in the future, tell me or your mother, don't be so sneaky anymore."
Something to eat.”
The two children took the cake, and their eyes lit up when they smelled the sweet smell of the cake.
"Thank you dad, hehe, I will definitely not bring Xiaowu here to steal food next time, I promise." After saying this with a smile, Su Xiaosi took his brother and prepared to leave the kitchen and go back to his room.
"Wait a minute!" Su Jianmin called to Xiao Si and gave him another piece of chicken cake to give to his third brother. He emphasized, "This is for Wen Nian. You are not allowed to eat it secretly by yourself.
Did you hear that?"
Su Xiaosi took the cake and said, "Don't worry, I won't eat the third brother's chicken cake!"
"This cake is very sweet. Remember to brush your teeth after eating, otherwise your teeth will turn black and get bugs." Su Jianmin said.
His two sons said "I know" at the same time, and then ran back to the room happily.
Watching them go back to their room and close the door, Su Jianmin couldn't help but taste a little bit of chicken cake left on his fingers, "This thing is really delicious, no wonder it's so expensive! How could Lao Xu and his daughter buy such expensive things?"
"
At this point, he asked his wife if she wanted to try one.
"No, I'm not a child anymore."
After Bai Lu finished speaking, she locked the cabinet door again and put the key on the top of the cabinet.
Returning to the bedroom, she said: "We accept something as expensive as Damei, so we have to give something back to Yulan, right?"
"What are you talking about? Why don't you buy a pound of cake? Or bean paste cakes or something like that. Ten yuan can buy several pounds of cakes."
"The bean paste cake is good, but I don't know if she will accept it..." At this point, Bai Lu couldn't help but sigh, "Hey!"
Her husband held her hand and asked in confusion: "What are you doing? What are you sighing for?"
"I just think so. I feel like...I can't explain..."
"What's going on?" Su Jianmin gently rubbed his wife's eyebrows, "Tell me what's bothering you, and don't keep it to yourself, otherwise you'll break your body."
Bai Lu pursed her lips, hesitated for a while, and said: "I just think Damei seems to like our family Zhiyuan. To be honest, Damei is a very good child, and I really want to bring her and Zhiyuan together.
Especially when I talked to her today, she said she didn't want to get married because she didn't have anyone she liked..."
Su Jianmin said hurriedly: "Don't say anything about the matchmaking! Zhiyuan doesn't have the heart. If we parents get involved blindly, then the two of us will not be together, and we will not see each other when we look up. How embarrassing would it be?"
"Yes, I was also thinking that the people in Zhiyuan were in the oil field. It was rare for them to go home for several years. It was probably not possible for Damei and I, so although I really wanted to comfort Damei, I didn't say anything in the end."
"Let's not worry about the children..."
Su Jianmin took his wife's hand and said, "It's not easy to raise those brats one by one. As for marrying a wife, they can just take care of it themselves. I don't want to worry about it anyway."
"It's not okay to ignore it. Zhiyuan is twenty-two years old, and it's almost time to start a family..."
Before his wife could finish speaking, Su Jianmin smiled and said, "What? Jinbao is still so young, and you are anxious to become a grandma?"
Bai Lu originally had a sad look on her face, but after hearing what he said, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"I'm not in a hurry to be a grandma. Who wants to worry about that? It's exhausting."
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. If we want to live a long life, we should worry less about our children and starting a family."
Bai Lu smiled and said, "Do you care about Jinbao's future marriage?"
Su Jianmin was anxious, "Of course Jinbao has to take care of it!"
"Look, you are a typical person who favors girls over boys..."
"Jin Bao is different. She is a girl, so she can easily suffer losses! Zhiyuan and the others are boys, how can they suffer losses? Is it possible that the wives they marry can still bully them? That would be too useless, wouldn't it?"
Speaking of this, Su Jianmin sighed: "I'm not worried about Zhiyuan marrying a wife and starting a family now. I'm worried about whether Jinbao will be bullied by his classmates when he goes to school."
"That's what you call worrying. Does Jinbao look like a child who will be bullied?"
Thinking of what happened before, when Jin Bao forced Zhao Xiaming to bow his head and apologize to Xiao Wu in public at school, Bai Lu couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, "I don't know how powerful your daughter is. She is the only one who can bully others. No one can bully her."
"Yes, our precious daughter is no ordinary child..."
Speaking of this, Su Jianmin yawned.
"Are you tired? Let's sleep?"
Bai Lu turned off the light, and the couple hugged each other and slept until dawn.
A few days later, on Monday, the first grade officially started. Jinbao was carrying a brand new military green schoolbag cross-body. His hair just past his shoulders was spread loosely, and some strands of his hair were tied into several thin braids.
Sweet and cute.
She held her mother's hand with one hand and her fifth brother's hand with the other, and walked to the Zizi Elementary School near the factory.
