After rebirth, I became Qingmei's white moonlight

Chapter 308 Chapter 306 Pinch the cotton of Zhuzhu to see if it is soft
"Mom is acting weird today."

In the elevator, Xu Xinzhu's face still had a slight blush.

She couldn't believe it. Her mother's real intention was to let her pursue Xiaoshu! Otherwise, it didn't make sense that she would deliberately create an opportunity for them to be alone.

"Aunt Qiuyu just cares about you too much." Jiang Shu smiled slightly.

He knew his mother-in-law's thoughts very well, but he couldn't tell Zhu Zhuming about these things. Otherwise, who knows what outrageous things this thieving kitten would do.

"I know, but...but..."

Xu Xinzhu glanced at Jiang Shu out of the corner of his eye, wondering if Xiaoshu had also figured it out.

The current situation is like she brought Xiaoshu home to meet her parents. Her mother is very satisfied with her future son-in-law, but Xiaoshu’s girlfriend is not her.

Whenever he thought about this, Xu Xinzhu felt sad.

"Don't think too much. I will stay with my Zhuzhu forever." Jiang Shu gently held her hand at this time, his gentle tone carrying unquestionable firmness.

This sense of security easily calmed her shaky heart, and in the future filled with confusion, she saw a ray of light breaking through the thick dark clouds.

Although I don’t know what method Xiaoshu will use to get the four of them together, but as long as it’s Xiaoshu, there will be no problem!
She exhaled softly: "Me too."

The two of them walked out of the elevator hand in hand, and then slowly walked out of the community. Occasionally, when they met an acquaintance from afar, Xu Xinzhu would hurriedly let go of her hand. After the person gradually walked away, the two hands would slowly touch each other again, and then hold hands again.

She really liked going shopping with Xiaoshu holding hands. It felt like they were a real couple and her heart was filled with indescribable happiness.

"Want to go check out the store?"

"No, the store must be very busy right now, I can't go there and cause trouble."

"So where do we go now?"

Jiang Shu hesitated for a moment: "I was planning to go see Yaoyao after dinner."

"Then let's go see Yaoyao." Upon hearing this, Xu Xinzhu took Xiaoshu's hand and walked towards the old courtyard.

"Zhuzhu, actually, as long as you can find any excuse not to go, I can accompany you shopping, playing claw machines, watching movies, or even catching fireflies in Green Heart Park. I can spend these two or three hours with you, and you can go see Yaoyao tomorrow." Jiang Shu said seriously.

Xu Xinzhu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "Xiaoshu can think this way, so I will assume that we have already done this. Yaoyao is alone at grandma's place, so she must want us to visit her, right?"

Jiang Shu couldn't help but show a look of surprise. Is this still the stingy Zhuzhu he knew? Why did she suddenly seem to have a little more of a deer-like shadow?

"Why are you looking at me like that? I can grow up too!" Xu Xinzhu said with a slight pout.

The promise of four people to never separate cannot be worked on by just Xiaoshu and Xiaolu.

Even though she hopes Xiaoshu will spend all his time with her, she has to learn to be generous and tolerant instead of being unreasonable and possessive. She also has to contribute her own strength to the future of four people.

The little tree was not hers alone from the beginning to the end.

"Thank you, Zhuzhu." Jiang Shu said softly.

Xu Xinzhu said with a smile: "Okay, don't say thank you to me again, hehe."

She looked at the traffic light at the intersection and saw that it would turn red in just 5 seconds. She immediately pulled Xiaoshu and ran: "Hurry up, the green light is about to end!"

Jiang Shu was pulled by her and his pace quickened involuntarily. The street scene passed by quickly in front of his eyes and the sound of wind and the roar of the engine was in his ears.

But his gaze, as if drawn by an invisible force, involuntarily fell on the rhythmic ponytail, like dancing waves, soaking the entire youthful summer.

"Phew, that was a close call. I almost couldn't make it." Xu Xinzhu panted softly.

Jiang Shu was slightly dazed. The cheerful and bright aura she displayed at this moment was a charm that neither Xiaolu nor Yaoyao possessed.

"We are not in a hurry, we can wait slowly."

"I know, but racing against time, doesn't Xiaoshu think it's exciting?"

Xu Xinzhu raised his finger and pointed at the lady on the opposite side, his tone carrying a little bit of pride: "That lady was just ahead of us, but now that we are here, she has to wait another 99 seconds. Xiaoshu, do you know how long 99 seconds is? It is one minute and forty seconds, which is rounded to two minutes. In two minutes, we can walk very far."

Jiang Shu couldn't help laughing. Zhuzhu was so cute like this.

Xu Xinzhu suddenly stopped and turned to look at Jiang Shu. His brows were slightly furrowed, but there was a barely perceptible smile on the corner of his mouth. He said coquettishly, "Stinky little Shu, why are you laughing at me all of a sudden!"

Jiang Shu was slightly stunned, then a warm smile spread across his face, his eyes sparkling with sincerity: "You're so cute when you smile."

Two red clouds instantly appeared on her cheeks. Xu Xinzhu lowered her head shyly and muttered softly: "Um... I don't have that!"

Seeing this, Jiang Shu felt that Zhu Zhu was extremely cute and couldn't help laughing again: "Is it not okay to praise you for being cute?"

"...Then praise me again?" Xu Xinzhu blinked and looked up with a hint of playfulness and expectation in his eyes.

"No more boasting."

"Hmph! You stinky little tree, don't think I'll get angry if you say that. If you mess with me, you'll be like stepping on cotton!"

Jiang Shu immediately laughed loudly and raised his hand to pinch her pretty face: "Let me pinch it to see if it's soft."

Xu Xinzhu blushed and shook her head vigorously: "No, no, our cotton has its own dignity, how can we let you pinch it as you please."

"Then go back and pinch it again?"

I don’t know what embarrassing scene he thought of, but Xu Xinzhu’s face turned red with shame.

Damn little tree, you are so bad!

The two stopped playing around, and Xu Xinzhu took a few deep breaths to calm himself down: "Should we walk back or take a taxi?"

"Let's walk back. Two kilometers is not far. Didn't Aunt Qiuyu ask us to digest the food?" Jiang Shu smiled and said, "Besides, if we walk, I can accompany you more."

"Yeah..." The sky gradually darkened, and the street lights on both sides of the road lit up one by one, emitting a dim and warm light. The two walked hand in hand on the sidewalk where light and shadow intertwined, and everything around them seemed peaceful and beautiful.

Before they knew it, half an hour had passed and the two returned to their old courtyard. Jiang Shu looked up and saw that the lights on the second floor were on.

He took Zhuzhu back to his old home with ease, and before he got close he could smell the delicious smell of food.

"Bang bang bang-"

There was a gentle knock on the door. Zhong Yaoyao opened the door puzzledly and saw Brother Xiaoshu and Sister Zhuzhu standing outside. An expression of surprise immediately appeared on her face.

"Brother Xiaoshu, Sister Zhuzhu, why are you here?"

"Of course I'm here to see you and Grandma Li." Jiang Shu walked into the house with a smile, and saw Grandma Li still cooking in the kitchen, so he took the initiative to greet her.

"Are we starting to eat now?"

"Hehe, I was busy accompanying grandma today and did the cleaning. It was around five o'clock in the afternoon before I went out to buy groceries with her, so it ended up being this late." Zhong Yaoyao stuck out her tongue.

At this time, Li Xiuzhen brought out the stewed mushroom chicken and took out two small bowls. She said with a smile, "Xiaoshu, Zhuzhu, I know you have already eaten, so I won't force you to stay for dinner. So drink some chicken soup. I've been cooking it for the whole afternoon."

Jiang Shu felt a little helpless. He had just been fed very well by Aunt Qiuyu, but he didn't want to spoil the old lady's fun, so he had to sit at the table with Xu Xinzhu. Li Xiuzhen served them both a full bowl of chicken soup and chicken.

"Brother Xiaoshu, what did we eat at home today?" Zhong Yaoyao said, and put a chicken leg that was stewed until soft and boneless into her grandmother's bowl.

Xu Xinzhu secretly pinched Jiang Shu's thigh under the table. He shook his head slightly and said, "I went to play basketball with Su Qing and the others in the afternoon. We had dinner at Zhuzhu's house in the evening. I had just finished taking a shower when Aunt Qiuyu suddenly invited me over for dinner. I almost ate too much."

Hearing this, Zhong Yaoyao immediately reacted. No wonder Brother Xiaoshu and Sister Zhuzhu came together. It turned out that they had dinner together in the evening.

But why did Aunt Qiuyu invite Brother Xiaoshu as soon as she returned home? Was it because she was not there?
"Oh."

Zhong Yaoyao nodded, her tone was calm and no other emotions could be heard, but she soon smiled again: "Then is the food cooked by Aunt Qiuyu delicious?"

Xu Xinzhu's mind was working very quickly at this moment, and she took the opportunity to take over the conversation: "Yaoyao, mom didn't expect you to come home so suddenly. I originally invited you and Xiaoshu to come together, but it doesn't matter. Yaoyao wants to try my mom's cooking, so you can come anytime."

"Hehehe, Sister Zhuzhu is so nice."

Li Xiuzhen watched the three people talking with a smile on her face, silently taking in everyone's expressions. As an elder who was almost sixty years old, what had she not experienced?
She could feel that the relationship between the three seemed very subtle. Whether it was Yaoyao or Zhuzhu, they all revolved around Xiaoshu, but in the current situation, Zhuzhu and Xiaoshu were closer.

Although Yaoyao seemed to be indifferent, she knew her granddaughter very well and she must be a little unhappy in her heart.

Jealousy is a common problem among women.

"Grandma Li's dishes are delicious too!" Xu Xinzhu took a bite of the dish and cleverly changed the subject.

Li Xiuzhen smiled immediately, her face full of traces of time, and said in a gentle tone: "If you like to eat, come over often. I will cook for you every day."

"Then I have to go back and discuss it with my mother. I will live here permanently from now on."

"Good good."

The old lady couldn't stop smiling. Although she knew Xu Xinzhu was joking, she didn't hate the beautiful girl in front of her at all, because she had watched her grow up. She just hoped that her granddaughter could win.

It’s all because the little tree is so outstanding, like a golden sun, and anyone standing in front of it will be eclipsed.

Yaoyao and Zhuzhu are like moths chasing the light, just hoping that no one will get hurt in the end.

She is old and cannot participate in the love affairs of the younger generation. She sighed helplessly in her heart.

Soon, the three younger generations accompanied the old grandmother and had dinner in harmony. Jiang Shu took the initiative to take the responsibility of washing the dishes. Li Xiuzhen cut watermelon for them. Xu Xinzhu and Zhong Yaoyao sat on the sofa in the living room watching TV. The atmosphere was very harmonious.

"Yaoyao, will you stay at home with your grandma all this time?" Xu Xinzhu's attention was not on the TV.

"Yeah." Zhong Yaoyao nodded. "School is about to start. If I don't seize the time to accompany grandma, I don't know when I will be able to come back next time."

She turned her head to look at her grandmother's lonely back, and said with a lonely expression: "Grandma has been alone all these years. I am her last relative, and I have Brother Xiaoshu, my godfather and godmother, you and Sister Xiaolu. If I go to school, Grandma will really be alone, and there will be no one to accompany and talk to. Do you think she will be lonely? Sister Zhuzhu, do you know that I accompanied Grandma today and she was smiling all day long."

Xu Xinzhu couldn't understand Yaoyao's state of mind, but he could understand it very well: "You should spend more time with grandma. It is said that people become younger as they get older. For the elderly, companionship is the most important thing."

"So, Brother Xiaoshu will be taken care of by Sister Zhuzhu in the next few days." Zhong Yaoyao said seriously.

Xu Xinzhu was stunned for a moment and was about to speak when Li Xiuzhen suddenly brought a plate of sliced ​​watermelon and placed it on the coffee table.

"Children, come and eat some watermelon. When I was young, I also grew watermelons in the countryside. This watermelon must be juicy and sweet." Li Xiuzhen said with a smile.

"Thank you, Grandma Li."

Xu Xinzhu picked up a piece of watermelon, took a bite, and then nodded vigorously: "It's really sweet!"

At this time, Jiang Shu had also cleaned up the kitchen, and several people gathered around the coffee table, watching TV and listening to Grandma Li telling stories about her youth.

They talked about how hard life was back then. When they were hungry, they could only dig wild vegetables to fill their stomachs. It was nothing like now when we can have delicious food every day, eat well, dress warmly, and watch TV.

It is also said that people were so simple at that time that when they reached marriageable age, there was no dowry or gifts, and no lively weddings. As long as two people were in love, they could go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get married.

Zhong Yaoyao had heard these words many times when she was a child, but it was the first time for Xu Xinzhu to hear them. Her grandparents were cadres and she had never had to worry about food and clothing since she was a child, but she was very much looking forward to the simple times described by Grandma Li.

Before I knew it, time had slowly passed to ten o'clock. It was already dark outside. Among the few residents in the courtyard, only Grandma Li's house had the lights on.

Jiang Shu and Xu Xinzhu plan to say goodbye to Grandma Li and come to visit her tomorrow.

"Yaoyao, you should go back with Xiaoshu now." Li Xiuzhen said gently.

"No, grandma, I want to sleep with you tonight." Zhong Yaoyao shook her head stubbornly and refused.

"Silly child, listen to grandma. Grandma is used to being alone and doesn't need you to accompany her."

Li Xiuzhen smiled slightly and said, "Yaoyao, this is all grandma can do. Happiness needs to be grasped by one's own hands."
