Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten
Chapter 1558 - 1560
Gong Ruini has already been hit numerous times today. The fact that her son and daughter are more popular than her is truly not something she sees as a problem.
What makes her sad is, "Xuran, do you feel something’s off?"
All the way, Gong Ruini was thinking about something, but she just couldn’t remember it. It wasn’t until she returned home that she remembered what it was, and it really hit her hard.
Zhao Xuran started to organize the luggage they brought back. Even though they were only staying for ten days, the clothes had to be sorted out.
"What is it?" Zhao Xuran hangs up the sweaters he brought back.
"Pingping and the others didn’t think about me at all."
"Do you know how long it has been since we left the airport until now, and they’ve shown no reaction?"
"Then when we got home, Pingping saw me and had no reaction."
"Especially Pingping, he even waved goodbye at me." If it were someone else’s child, Gong Ruini might say the child is really sensible and mature for knowing how to curry favor with their grandparents.
But when it comes to her own child, Gong Ruini finds it unpleasant in every way.
It’s really not just an ordinary ungrateful brat, "No wonder I was worried in all sorts of ways along the way."
But then she turns to look and finds that they are playing so happily, seemingly unbothered by having no parents around.
"I think they wouldn’t want us at night either." Before, Gong Tao just mentioned that Pingping would stay with them at night.
As for An An, of course she would stay with Zhao Gang and his wife, this was just a notification, not really a matter to discuss.
Gong Ruini wanted to remind them, but Gong Tao worried she would raise objections, and quickly walked away.
Gong Ruini originally thought that when Pingping and the others act up, they’d eventually want to come back to them, but now it seems this thing is a bit dubious.
If Pingping doesn’t cry and fuss, isn’t that a good thing? Zhao Xuran nearly exclaimed, because actually what he hoped was that the children wouldn’t come back and make trouble.
"We can get some rest, aren’t you tired?" Zhao Xuran finished tidying the last piece of clothing and pulled Gong Ruini to the sofa.
"Tired." Gong Ruini blurted out, and seriously, she was really tired, never knowing that taking care of children could be so exhausting.
"You say Pingping can’t even walk yet and it’s this tiring, what about when they can walk?" Gong Ruini really didn’t want to think about it, truly a terrifying thought.
Just thinking of that scenario made Zhao Xuran pause, "I think we can consider giving the aunties a raise."
It’s tough, really tough; since knowing their troubles, Zhao Xuran wasn’t a stingy person, of course he would give a raise.
Otherwise, once Pingping starts walking and they see how tough the task is, what if they resign and leave? Sure, you can hire new people, but then you’d have to teach them again, and would they be good to Pingping?
Giving a raise, that’s something Gong Ruini doesn’t care about; thinking of their child’s energy level calls for a raise, "I think you can teach Pingping martial arts."
With such good energy, it shouldn’t be wasted.
Teaching their son martial arts is a must, but there’s a problem it looks like his wife hasn’t considered, "You’re not worried that once Pingping learns martial arts, his destructive power will be even greater?"
Uh, Gong Ruini really hadn’t considered this, what to do, Gong Ruini was dizzy.
"Forget it, if that happens, there’s nothing we can do." Gong Ruini said helplessly, "I’ll let him study the Three Character Classic to wear out his energy."
A child with good energy has ways to handle it, keep him busy enough not to make trouble, Gong Ruini feels like there’s a way to deal with high energy.
"Learn English, French, German, piano, ballet, there’s gotta be one that suits him." Gong Ruini really wasn’t worried, raising an all-rounded child wasn’t easy.
Not only is it about money, but importantly, the kid has to be smart; if he’s a fool, no matter how much you work him, it wouldn’t just be wasting money, but also infuriating oneself.
Goodness, Zhao Xuran looked at Gong Ruini at this moment, feeling like his wife had a bit of a fierce aura, and couldn’t help but pray for their son who didn’t know what was going on.
What is Pingping doing at the moment? Of course, he’s trying to hug someone’s big leg and don’t ask how he knows it’s a big leg, the reason is simple, they are the ones who snatched him and his sister away from his parents.
If it were before, the parents would absolutely take action, not giving the opponent a good face, but this time they didn’t move, if Pingping doesn’t understand this, he would really be a fool.
Zhao Gang and the others watched him constantly smile, revealing all his teeth, "Ah, all grown teeth."
Zhao Gang looked at his friend who looked like a fool, unable to bear looking directly and covered his eyes, "You..."
Ah, he really didn’t want to admit he knew this person, after all, he’s been a dad to three kids before, forget anything else, just the number at home can’t be forgotten.
Gong Tao seemed rather sheepish; he wasn’t too excited, hadn’t considered so much, "It’s just me getting a little worked up."
"By the way, do you think they’ll cry at night?" Don’t be fooled by how Gong Tao behaves before Gong Ruini; he’s really quite concerned, not just delivering instructions.
But is he actually unworried? In truth, he’s very nervous, afraid Pingping would cause a fuss at night.
Zhao Gang honestly felt his old friend was being foolish today, "Don’t you think it’s too late to worry about that now?"
"Why didn’t you discuss this with Ni Zi earlier?"
"No worries, weren’t they separated long ago, I think they wouldn’t fuss, just be alert at night." Zhao Gang actually was worried, but he couldn’t let go of the good opportunity.
"Yep, if Pingping makes a fuss, then find Ni Zi and the others." After just settling on potential situations, Zhao Gang and others surrounded around Pingping and kept checking.
"How adorable the kids are, alas, we can’t visit often, otherwise..." Although there are photos, it’s still missing much of the kids’ growth moments.
"Wonder if we can hear Pingping call grandma and grandpa for the first time." Zhao Gang was really looking forward to it.
Though many peers around them were already grandparents, and they bragged how smart and mature their grandkids were, Zhao Gang didn’t mind.
Can their kids be smarter than his grandkids? Even when Pingping and An An weren’t born, Zhao Gang was confident.
Why the confidence? The reason is simple, their own son’s genes are superb, and their daughter-in-law’s genes are great too, definitely means good learning ability and skills.
Could their children be less impressive?
Didn’t he just wait? His own grandchild must be smart and excellent, bringing the Zhao family further prosperity.
That means, they’ll definitely be more successful than their grandchild’s father, "Ah, another year and a half until his wife returns."
Zhao Gang genuinely anticipated Gong Ruini’s return, even if Ni Zi suggests educating the kids themselves, it’s all acceptable.
As long as they can keep seeing Pingping, that’s all that matters.
