"No! Why did you drag out? I want to listen! Does Grandma know my mom?" Tu Hengsha was really curious.
"How would we know about their generation’s stuff? Does it matter if they know each other or not? If they want to talk, let them talk! Let’s go, I’ll take you to buy so candy!" He headed towards Hongliu Road outside the school.
"..." The way he said it was like coaxing a child! But she liked to hear it...
She was squinting and smiling when she suddenly rembered sothing and quickly stopped him, "No, no, no, we can’t go out!"
"Why?" he turned back to ask her.
"Um... everyone on the street recognizes ! We can’t... let them see you..." She stood still, anxiously waving her hands.
His face instantly fell.
Tu Hengsha wasn’t aware and pulled him towards the little woods, "Co on, let’s hide..."
"..." Hide?
Unable to resist her, he was pushed to walk inside the school, while she anxiously hopped around like a little chick, "Not that way! Don’t head towards the field! In the evening, lots of teachers are walking there! They all recognize !"
"..." He was angry, standing there with a stern face.
"..." Mr. Su’s mood was as fickle as a child’s... "Mr. Su! Xiao Xu! Xiao Xu! Mr. Su!" She circled around him but couldn’t cheer him up...
She suddenly clutched her chest and squatted down, "Oh no..."
"What’s wrong?" He lifted her up.
"I... I feel uncomfortable... like I’m suffocating..." She closed her eyes, but couldn’t resist peeking with one eye open to see his reaction, then quickly shut it, "I can’t... get upset... When I get upset, I tend to have episodes..."
"Really? Did you bring your dicine?" his tone was no longer worried, more like coolly amused.
Uh-oh, it seed like he saw through it, couldn’t keep up the act, next ti I’ll have to fake it better!
"Hehe..." She smiled sheepishly, "I have an illness and you have the cure!"
Mr. Su’s stony face cracked a little.
"Xiao Xu, you are my dicine!" The flattery in her smile was as bright as a sunflower.
Mr. Su finally broke character, pinching her cheek as punishnt, "You have no other skills but your flattery is getting better by the day!"
At Tu Hengsha’s ho, the tea in front of Grandma Xu was getting cold, and most of the conversation was over, but Shu Hui still held a stern face in silence, showing no intention.
Grandma Xu took a sip of the cold tea, maintaining her gentle smile, "I have to thank heaven for sending this girl to and Gugu, like fresh water to an old dry well, making flavorful tea. She’s truly a good girl! I’m just an old well that doesn’t have many years left, and in this world, things co and go, the old will beco history, the past fades away, ultimately becoming a forgettable handful of dust, those who live on should continue well, why be burdened by dust..."
Shu Hui’s frozen gaze slowly moved, landing on Grandma Xu’s face.
Grandma Xu’s smile was warm and bright like the moon in the sky today.
"No matter what, I have to thank you for raising such a good child." Grandma Xu put down her teacup and prepared to stand up.
"Wait a mont!" Shu Hui suddenly said.
Grandma Xu looked at her with a smile.
Shu Hui turned her face away, "I can’t promise anything. I know how good my daughter is, but as her mother, I didn’t fulfill my responsibilities, making her suffer a lot since childhood. My only wish in life is to spare her from any more grievances."
Grandma Xu sat back down with a smile, "I understand, the girl is so good, I wouldn’t want her to suffer either. Speaking of which, I’m just an old shaless person, thick-skinned enough to co for a al, not knowing if I have the face for it."
Shu Hui’s face showed so discomfort, and after an awkward pause, she got up, "How long does it take those two to get sothing? The food is getting cold!"
Grandma Xu chuckled, "I’ll call them up now! They’ll be here soon!"
When Tu Hengsha and Su Ronggui returned, they saw Grandma Xu and Shu Hui sitting face to face, Grandma Xu full of smiles, and Shu Hui looking serious.
"Co over, co et your Aunt Shu." Grandma Xu waved at Su Ronggui.
Su Ronggui didn’t dare neglect, and respectfully greeted, "Hello Aunt Shu, I’m Xu Gui, now..."
Shu Hui suddenly stood up, "I’ll go check if the old soup is ready. Little Sha! Where’s your teacher? Weren’t you having dinner? Why isn’t he here yet?"
"The teacher, he..." Tu Hengsha pointed at Su Ronggui, and before she could finish, Shu Hui already went into the kitchen, apparently not really interested in asking about the teacher...
She sat down opposite Su Ronggui, whispering, "Looks like my mom doesn’t like you."
He looked pitiful, "Yeah, so what do we do?"
Grandma Xu laughed, "That just ans Gugu isn’t quite good enough, Gugu has to work harder."
Tu Hengsha thought seriously, "My mom likes mischievous and lively kids who can sing and dance, you’re too dull, you’re indeed not likable."
"..." This was the most unusual assessnt Su Ronggui ever received.
"That’s right, Gugu is just dull and silly!" Grandma was always on Tu Hengsha’s side.
"Speaking of which, you should learn from Hao Ren! His personality is the kind a mother-in-law would love more and more..." She was giving serious advice, completely unaware that Mr. Su’s expression had changed, "Tomorrow then, tomorrow I’ll tell Hao Ren to teach you how to be likable, especially how to win over won!"
Mr. Su’s voice ca out as a nasal snort, "So, does that an he won your favor?"
"What’s the big deal?" She wasn’t completely unaware, picking up on Mr. Su’s little mood, "He’s just soone who makes people feel comfortable to be around! Besides, like mother, like daughter, my taste is similar to my mom’s, what I like, she usually likes too..."
"It’s ’like mother, like daughter’!" Mr. Su coldly corrected her, "So what your mom doesn’t like, you don’t like?"
"Basically... that’s about right..."
Mr. Su’s eyes were showing a hint of wanting to give a beating, calling each of her nas carefully as a warning, "Tu, Heng, Sha! I see you don’t want to live well! Have you forgotten the days of punishnt writing with a brush? Or do I have to spank you?" Was this a case of getting reckless after three days without a beating?
Tu Hengsha was also feeling down, she was genuinely giving him advice, how did she end up hitting a nerve?
At this mont, Shu Hui returned, carrying a bowl of soup, "Little Sha, give your Mr. Su a call, see when he’s coming."
Tu Hengsha, with a bit of a temper, glared at Su Ronggui, "Mr. Su, he’s not coming!"
"What? Wasn’t it agreed?"
