"It's the kind with metal blades," Su Lei gestured, "Jiang Chengzhou bought a pair for twenty-eight yuan."

Fan Biyun's expression changed. "Twenty-eight yuan?! Who bought it for him?"

Su Lei: "His aunt."

"Which aunt?" Fan Biyun blurted out, then realized, "You mean Lin Zhilan?"

"Yes, it was bought for him by his third aunt."

Fan Biyun pressed further, "It really wasn't your grandparents who paid for it?"

"No!" Su Lei said impatiently, "It was Auntie who produced it. I saw it with my own eyes. You can ask my brother if you don't believe me."

Su Ming hummed in agreement.

Fan Biyun muttered, "Could she really be that willing? Is she just putting on a show for her parents?"

Su Lei grabbed her clothes, "I don't care, Jiang Chengzhou has roller skates, I want them too."

"Where would we get the money to buy that?" Fan Biyun shook him off. "Go ask your dad."

"Dad?" Su Lei looked at his father.

"Your money is all with your mother, why are you asking me?"

The couple passed the buck to each other.

Su Lei looked around and then suddenly ran out.

"Where are you going?" Fan Biyun called after him.

"I'm going to my grandma's house to ask my uncle and aunt to buy it for me!"

Fan Biyun chased after her anxiously, "Where would your aunt and uncle get the money to buy you shoes?"

Lin Zhilan didn't care how much trouble Su Lei caused at Fan Biyun's parents' house.

After spending a day playing with the children in Qianhai, the group only prepared to go home when Jiang Chengzhou was finally able to let go and skate on his own.

Jiang Chengzhou, his face flushed with excitement, asked, "Auntie, can I come over to play again tomorrow?"

Lin Zhilan thought for a moment, "Tomorrow is the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. We need to clean and tidy the house, and your aunt doesn't have time. How about your uncle goes with you?"

Xu Yueyun hurriedly said, "You all should go. There's an old man and Aunt Yu at home."

Su Bingcheng said the same thing.

Jiang Chengzhou said, "Then I'll clean up with you all, and we'll go together after we're done."

"no problem."

The group returned home happily, and as soon as they opened the door, Aunt Yu came to greet them.

"Comrade Xu, Comrade Su, come quick, look who's back!"

"Dad, Mom, I'm home!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall man wearing a blue sweater standing at the door.

He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, with a pair of thick glasses perched on his nose. His hair was a little gray, and his face looked somewhat haggard. He looked older than Su Lang's older brother, Su Ding.

Xu Yueyun stood there stunned, her gloves, which she had just taken off, almost falling to the ground.

"Little...Little Jue?"

Su Jue strode over and stopped in front of Xu Yueyun, saying in a choked voice, "Mom, I'm back."

Xu Yueyun's lips trembled, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Lin Zhilan stepped forward and massaged her Neiguan acupoint for a while. "Mom, it's good news that Second Brother is back. Don't get excited."

Xu Yueyun nodded and patted her hand, "Good girl, I know."

She turned around, suddenly raised her hand, and slammed her fist into Su Jue.

"You heartless bastard! All these years, you haven't even sent a single letter back. Have you ever thought about your wife and children? Have you ever thought about your old mother?"

Su Jue stood still, letting his mother hit him, only saying, "Mom, I know I was wrong."

As Xu Yueyun continued hitting him, tears started streaming down her face, and she grabbed her son's clothes and began to cry.

Su Jue's eyes also reddened. He reached out and hugged his mother, "Mom, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."

Xu Yueyun buried herself in his arms, her shoulders trembling.

Su Bingcheng walked over and patted his wife on the shoulder, "Okay, don't cry, or you'll feel even worse later."

"dad……"

Su Bingcheng was not good with words, so he simply responded softly, "It's good that you're back."

Su Jue released his mother and greeted Su Lang and Lin Zhilan, "Xiao Lang, third sister-in-law."

"Second Brother."

"Second Brother."

Lin Zhilan supported Jiang Chengzhou's shoulder, "Chengzhou, call him Second Uncle."

"Second Uncle." Jiang Chengzhou looked at Su Jue with a scrutinizing gaze. In any case, apart from his uncle, Jiang Chengzhou's impression of his maternal grandfather's other sons was just so-so.

Although the second uncle wasn't as annoying as the eldest uncle, he looked a bit old and didn't fit Jiang Chengzhou's aesthetic preferences.

"Second Uncle~"

A clear and melodious child's voice broke the dull atmosphere.

Xu Yueyun burst into laughter through her tears, wiped them away, and said, "My little darling, you can't call him Uncle, you have to call him Second Uncle."

"Erbai!"

The child couldn't distinguish between BP and BP, but fortunately Su Jue didn't mind and agreed with a smile.

Su Jue tried to pat Jiang Chengzhou's head, but Jiang Chengzhou stepped back to avoid it.

He paused for a moment, but didn't press the matter. "Chengzhou has grown up too."

Lin Zhilan saw a young woman standing behind Su Jue, holding the hands of two teenage girls, who were also wiping away tears.

The two girls, one around 10 years old and the other only five or six, both inherited the good looks of the Su family.

Seeing their mother cry, the two girls felt somewhat lost.

Lin Zhilan took the initiative to walk over and said, "Second sister-in-law, I'm Zhilan."

Deng Jing quickly wiped away her tears and nodded, "Hello, Peipei, Yaoyao, quickly call her Third Aunt!"

Peipei and Yaoyao: "Hello, Third Aunt."

Hello.

Lin Zhilan squatted down, just about to talk to the two girls, when Linlin rushed up and squeezed into her mother's arms.

"Baby, this is your second aunt and older sister."

"Erbai Niang, sister." Linlin greeted them obediently, then cupped her mother's face and hummed softly.

Lin Zhilan laughed and asked, "What's wrong with you now?"

Linlin whispered in her ear, "I want to be a big sister too."

"Sister," Su Yao said, surprising everyone.

Linlin's eyes lit up, and she turned to look at her, "I'm the older sister?"

Su Yao shrank behind Deng Jing.

Linlin persisted, asking again, "Am I the older sister?"

Su Yao was somewhat introverted and couldn't handle her mother's enthusiasm, so she buried her head between her mother's legs.

Lin Zhilan helplessly pulled her daughter back, "I'll get you a puppy later, you can be its older sister, okay?"

"Okay!" Linlin readily agreed.

Lin Zhilan grabbed her arm, "Come on, let's go to the room and get a gift for my sister."

Linlin nodded, tilted her head to look at Su Yao, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll come back and play with you later."

Linlin was originally a quiet little girl, but since Su Lang stayed at home for the past six months, he has taken her out to run around whenever he has free time, and her personality has become much more lively.

Once they entered the room, Su Pei couldn't help but laugh, "Mom, Auntie and my sister are so much fun."

Deng Jing also breathed a sigh of relief.

Having even one sister-in-law like the eldest sister-in-law is enough to make you suffer.

Fortunately, my third sister-in-law seems to be a reasonable person.

Lin Zhilan brought gifts for all the children in the family when she visited for the first time.

Because her first impression of Su Ming and Su Lei was not very good, she didn't bring them out at the time.

Lin Zhilan took a small rattan box out of the room.

She prepared a new schoolbag for Su Pei.

A black, artificial leather backpack made in Shanghai, with shoulder straps, square and sturdy.
