Chapter 440: Chapter 333: Why Has the Thermos Changed? (6000+)

"Uncle... are you still angry with us?"

Yin Bowen heard the unfriendly tone in Yin Shixiu’s voice and quickly asked in a flattering manner.

At such a moment, Su Xiaomeng wouldn’t randomly interrupt, but when she looked up, her eyes accidentally met Guo Tong’s gaze.

Guo Tong gave her a faint smile, which still carried an air of awkwardness and caution.

It was as if she was very afraid of Su Xiaomeng, which left Su Xiaomeng feeling a bit at a loss.

She thought of herself as being kind and amiable, always treating others well...

Even if she had some leverage over her, was it necessary to show such obvious and straightforward fear?

"Xiaomeng, are you also buying baby products?"

Xiaomeng responded lightly.

"But this mall is quite far from where you live, isn’t it?"

The implied meaning was to inquire why they came here to shop.

"This place is also quite far from your home."

Xiaomeng didn’t answer directly, instead, she casually tossed the question back at them.

Guo Tong’s expression turned awkward, and she bit her lip, seeming a bit frustrated by Su Xiaomeng’s cold response, but quickly raised her eyebrows and explained,

"Bowen and I have an appointment with Doctor Jiang for a prenatal check-up at one o’clock, we just happened to pass by here, so we came to take a look."

One o’clock...

There happened to be a digital clock on the wall of the store, and the hour hand had just passed eleven.

Guo Tong saw the clock as Xiaomeng did and quickly said,

"I had a craving, so I dragged Bowen to come out early, to have lunch here before going to the hospital, it’s just about the right time."

Xiaomeng felt that Guo Tong might really be very concerned about her actions and words.

In fact, Xiaomeng hadn’t asked anything, yet Guo Tong hurried to explain to her...

Su Xiaomeng rubbed her forehead, not sure if this kind of concern was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Were you Uncle and Aunt also just finished with a prenatal check-up?"

Yin Bowen asked tentatively.

"Yeah, are you still shopping?"

Yin Shixiu casually asked.

"We..."

"My aunt and I are finishing up here to go check out. Feel free to do as you please."

Yin Shixiu was not particularly polite, pushing the cart and supporting Xiaomeng as they passed by them.

"Then we’re off."

Xiaomeng politely and courteously greeted them.

Yin Bowen and Guo Tong respectfully replied,

"Goodbye, Aunt, take care."

After checking out, Yin Shixiu pushed the shopping cart into the elevator, directly going down to the parking lot.

There was no one else in the elevator, and Xiaomeng couldn’t help but say to Yin Shixiu,

"Even if you don’t care for those two, you should at least be polite... after all, you’re the elder."

"Was I impolite?"

Yin Shixiu looked surprised.

Su Xiaomeng blinked, "Polite? Your tone was cold and harsh, let me translate for you, it was practically telling them to get lost."

Yin Shixiu was indifferent,

"That’s how I am with outsiders, I didn’t give them any special treatment."

"..."

With just one sentence, Xiaomeng was choked up and couldn’t respond for a long time.

————

The two returned home, with Yin Shixiu carrying all the shopping bags.

As soon as they entered, Shuangshuang and Huanghuang stood at the door eagerly waiting for Su Xiaomeng and Yin Shixiu.

They had probably called Su’s mother before coming back, telling her about having bought toys for the two little ones, and then Su’s mother told them.

"Daddy and Mommy are back, not even a greeting, those little eyes are just fixed on the toys?"

Su Xiaomeng sighed and couldn’t help but say. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Who knew that this comment would be taken to heart by the little girl, and Shuangshuang quickly looked up at Su Xiaomeng, seriously saying,

"Mom, it’s not!"

Su Xiaomeng raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit expectant.

Shuangshuang pointed to her own widened eyes, "Shuangshuang big eyes!"

After speaking, she and Prince Huang together grabbed a gift bag that Yin Shixiu was holding.

The little ones were quite sneaky, they weren’t interested in the other gift bags, only targeting the one with the cartoon bear on it.

Their toys were mostly from this brand, and every time they brought them back, they targeted this shopping bag.

Su’s father still had an apron on, having just come out of the kitchen, and he praised Shuangshuang and Huanghuang for being clever.

But Xiaomeng said,

"This cleverness is not used in the right place."

Then Su Chengji retorted immediately,

"You never used it in the right place either?"

"..."

Xiaomeng was blocked by her father’s words, feeling upset, it was as if having grandchildren meant not needing a daughter anymore!

As they were bickering, the two little ones were already focused on their new toys.

Su’s mother walked over, looking at the toys scattered all over the floor, and sincerely sighed,

"Kids these days, they really are so lucky!"

"Honey, what you said really shows your age!"
