Single Mom in the Eighties - Chapter 103

Kangkang said proudly: “Because I was playing while they were whispering. Sister Yue Jing also said that I am a kid who doesn’t understand anything, but I actually understand everything!”

Yan Ruxu: “Oh? You understand everything, so what do you understand?”

Kang Kang took it for granted: “Dating, Sister Yue Jing said, Brother Yue Ling wrote love letters on pink and scented letter paper, but they confiscated them and returned them. Brother Yue Ling held the love letter, so sad that he shed tears.”

Yan Ruxu was shocked, “You even know about love letters?”

“I know.” Kangkang said.

Yan Ruxu quickly exchanged glances with Kang Congxin, let go of Kangkang, let him go by himself, and deliberately pulled Kang Congxin a little behind, lest Kangkang would hear him, pulled Kang Congxin to listen to him, and said, “You say, Should we start to be wary of our son’s puppy love? How can he know so much at such a young age!”

Kang Congxin smiled: “He just knows a noun, and he is still far away from puppy love. Now in his mind, nothing compares to delicious food.”

The two were talking, and Kangkang, who had run far away, stopped and turned his head, and said dissatisfiedly: “Mom and Dad, stop talking, let’s go to McKenzie and line up before talking slowly.”

This seemed to confirm what Kang Congxin said just now, the husband and wife not only looked at each other and smiled.

The Family House of Machinery Group is about ten minutes’ walk from Qianmen Street. When I arrived at the intersection of Qianmen Street, I saw the three-storey building where McKenzie lived. The large floor-to-ceiling glass, the windows were clear and clean, and it could be seen through the window that it was full of people.

The queue also went out from the door, blocking the exits of the calligraphy and painting store and stationery store next door. The shop owner stood at the door and impatiently drove away the people in line. The people in line quarreled with him in dissatisfaction, but they still gave way to the outside, giving the shop boss a space that could accommodate one person in and out.

Kangkang became excited when he saw McKenzie’s iconic portrait of the old man, and he raised his foot and was about to rush forward to line up. Kang Congxin quickly stopped him: “There are too many people, I can’t run around by myself, I have to follow Tighten mom and dad!”

Kangkang agreed, and obediently took his father’s hand and ran to the end of the line.

Yan Ruxu felt a headache when he saw Wuyang Wuyang’s long line, and asked Kangkang, “Do we have to eat this? Can we change it to something else?”

Kangkang shook his head resolutely: “Just eat this, Mom, you promised me, you see the team is fast, and it will be our turn soon!”

“All right.”

Yan Ruxu agreed, and quickly stood behind the father and son. Just as they were talking, two young couples lined up behind them.

Those who waited in line to eat McKenzie, and some like their family, brought their children to try something new, but most of them were young people, mostly young couples, and a group of friends came together.

Kangkang took out small biscuits wrapped in a handkerchief from his trouser pocket, gave one to his father, and another to his mother, hesitated for a while, and put the biscuits back again.

Kang Congxin wondered: “Aren’t you hungry, why don’t you eat?”

Kangkang licked his lips, spit in his mouth, and said, “I want to save my stomach for French fries and burgers!”

Yan Ruxu and Kang looked at each other again, not knowing what to say.

Yan Ruxu tapped his son’s little head: “Look, you are so smart! Then why do you let me and your father eat biscuits? Don’t you want us to eat more?”

Kangkang quickly said: “No, no, I am afraid that my parents will be hungry! I am a small person who resists hunger!”

Kang Congxin laughed, apparently accepting his son’s filial piety, but Yan Ruxu was not so easy to deceive, and flicked his son’s big head: “Slick tongue!”

Standing in front of them were two young men, one of whom was shorter and was trying to encourage the taller one next to him: “…Can you lie to me, buddy? Just go this trip with buddy, and you’re guaranteed to make a lot of money! Maozi is short of daily necessities and old, a piece of soap is exchanged for a large piece of leather, and blood is earned!”

The taller one was still hesitating, and the shorter one showed that he had been persuading him. Seeing that he hadn’t let go, he couldn’t help being anxious, and said, “If I didn’t see that you have kung fu, I wouldn’t ask you for such a good thing. Why are you not tempted by such a good opportunity to make money!”

His mouth was faster than his brain, and he blurted out what was in his heart. After the short man finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. He couldn’t help but look at the tall man nervously. He thought the tall man would be angry, but he didn’t expect the tall man to laugh instead, saying, “I’ll just say, we usually The relationship is not the best, and you are persuading me to partner with you, and you want to treat me to a foreign meal, so it turned out that I was trying to figure out my kung fu, so let me tell you sooner!”

As soon as the short man heard that there was a door, he quickly said: “I’m not afraid of telling the truth, you won’t partner with me, anyway, I’ve already talked about this, so I’ll tell you the truth. Taiping, the train journey from Beijing to Lao Maozi’s capital is very flat in our country, but in the part of Lao Maozi’s territory, there are people who are blind and robbed, and the money is at risk!”

This year, the government began to crack down on “speculative profiteering” and “government defection”. The common people hated those “government defection”.

Due to the official crackdown, a large number of “dead masters” began to move to the international market. Facing the risk of disintegration, Lao Maozi, who is extremely short of domestic light industrial products, has become the main market for these international losers. But as the short man said, high returns also come with high risks.

Yan Ruxu and his wife hadn’t heard whether the tall man with kung fu agreed to be a lord with him, when they heard someone calling, “Mr. Kang, why did you come to line up in person?”

Looking up, it was Kang Congxin’s secretary Yuan Ming.

Yuan Ming walked up to him and said hello to Kang Congxin, Yan Ruxu, and Kang Kang respectively. Kang Kang raised his head and called, “Uncle Yuan”, and then asked, “Uncle Yuan, are you also here to eat McKenzie?” Is it?”

Yuan Ming touched his nose and said, “Yes.”

Kangkang seemed a little happy, as if he had found a bosom friend, he stretched out **** and said, “I also like McKenzie very much, and this is the second time I ate it today.”

Yuan Ming was familiar with Kangkang, but after hearing Kangkang’s childish words, he didn’t know how to answer them for a while, so he could only say, “Oh, that’s amazing.”

He quickly turned to Kang Congxin and said, “Leader, we are at the front of the line and it will be our turn soon. Go to our place.”

The leader has few things to do, and he seldom allows his secretary to participate in his private affairs. Most of the time, Yuan Ming can get off work on time and on time. Today, he made an appointment with his newly confirmed relationship partner to eat McKenzie, and the two came to line up after work. Just now when he turned around by chance, he saw Kang Congxin who was much taller than the people before and after him at a glance. He immediately explained a few words to his partner and ran over quickly.

After listening to Yuan Ming’s words again, Kang did not express his opinion, but looked at Yan Ruxu.

Yan Ruxu smiled at Yuan Ming, and said, “Did you bring your partner with you? You go to eat, don’t worry about us, we can line up by ourselves, and it will be very fast.”

Yuan Ming nodded in embarrassment, indicating that he really came with the object, and then said: “You can just get in front of us.” He then estimated the length of the line, and said: “If you line up, I’m afraid you will have to wait. It’s been over an hour.”

As for jumping in line, generally speaking, if you jump in front of acquaintances, others will not have any opinions.

Yan Ruxu looked down at Kangkang who didn’t even eat biscuits in order to have another bite, and said: “Okay, then I will trouble you, it is better to meet by chance, today I will be the host of Vice President Kang, please and you Object, let’s eat.”

Yuan Ming waved his hands again and again: “No, no.”

Kang Congxin said, “Listen to your sister-in-law.”

As soon as this remark came out, Yuan Ming immediately stopped refusing, and scratched his nose and said, “Being respectful is worse than obeying orders, let Mr. Kang and sister-in-law spend money!”

Yuan Ming’s object, Jiang Xiaoxia, used to work in the same office as Yuan Ming, and the nature of her work was similar to Yuan Ming’s. However, when they were in the same office, although both of them had a little bit of interest, they didn’t make it clear. It wasn’t until recently that Yuan Ming gained a firm foothold with Kang Congxin, that he found an opportunity to confess his love to Jiang Xiaoxia and officially became boyfriend and girlfriend. Open in pairs.

Jiang Xiaoxia is very introverted. After seeing Kang Congxin’s family, she was at a loss after greeting Kang Congxin’s family politely and nervously. She was usually immersed in her own work and did not have contact with the leader. Today, facing Kang Congxin so close, she was so unreasonable. I felt the pressure doubled, and I didn’t dare to look up at Kang Congxin, and I couldn’t speak well.

Yuan Ming felt his girlfriend’s nervousness, but there was no good way to do it. Vice President Kang was easy to get along with. It was just this aura that a timid girl like Jiang Xiaoxia could not bear. At the time of crisis, I heard Yan Ruxu say: “We will sit apart after ordering, Kangkang is too noisy, don’t disturb you.”

Yuan Ming couldn’t ask for it, and when they entered the gate of Mackenzie, he immediately directed Jiang Xiaoxia to find an empty seat.

Jiang Xiaoxia, as if she had received an amnesty, searched upstairs and downstairs, and finally found a table for four on the second floor. She quickly occupied it with her satchel, and went downstairs in a hurry to inform her.

Kangkang has already got his father’s guarantee that he will order everything he wants to eat, so he has to follow Jiang Xiaoxia to occupy a seat upstairs. Xia Kangcongxin and Yuan Ming, two elders of the same age, lined up to order food and received many strange looks.

Kang Congxin remained calm and composed, while Yuan Ming was embarrassed by these ambiguous eyes. Finally, it was their turn to order. Yuan Ming quickly ordered the hamburger and French fries set meal that he had discussed with his girlfriend in advance. He didn’t push Kang to pay again, so he waited for a while and took the meal. .

There happened to be a space for two people on the first floor, so Yuan Ming hurriedly said to Kang Congxin, “Mr. Kang, Jiang Xiaoxia and I will be on the first floor.”

Kang Congxin nodded, and went to the second floor with two dinner plates full of food.

With Kang Congxin away, Jiang Xiaoxia felt less stressed, but she was still nervous. She is not tall, but average-looking, sweet and well-behaved, with the same style as Liang Xiaobing, and two completely different styles with Yan Ruxu, who is bright and majestic. Her different temperament makes her appear younger than her actual age. Yan Ruxu is a few years younger, but for no reason it makes people feel that she is several years younger.

Yan Ruxu is not good at talking with strangers, Jiang Xiaoxia is even worse, but Yan Ruxu is the leader’s wife anyway, and her life experience is richer than Jiang Xiaoxia’s, so she didn’t let the silence go, she chatted with Jiang Xiaoxia about work, and talked about Yuan Ming, whom they both knew.

Whatever Yan Ruxu asked, Jiang Xiaoxia would answer whatever she asked. She was very honest and knew everything she wanted to say, which made it difficult for Yan Ruxu, who was just looking for a topic to keep the atmosphere from being embarrassing, to listen any longer.

Fortunately, Kang Congxin came over and told Jiang Xiaoxia, “Yuan Ming is waiting for you on the first floor near the door.”

Jiang Xiaoxia hurriedly greeted Yan Ruxu’s family and left in a hurry.

Yan Ruxu took the plate from Kang Congxin’s hand with a smile, and said, “Their personalities are really different, but they can complement each other, and they are quite a match.”

Kang Congxin said, “One pot comes with one lid.”

Yan Ruxu: “They seem to be in a good relationship, when do you plan to get married?”

Kang Congxin has never asked this question, but Yuan Ming has been his secretary for such a long time, so he knows the other party’s personality well, and said: “He and Jiang Xiaoxia have made a public couple, and they are probably not far away from getting married. gone.”

Yan Ruxu nodded. As Yuan Ming’s immediate boss, Kang Congxin would have to attend the wedding.

Kang Congxin put the plate in his hand on the table, smiled and watched his saliva dripping down, and stared at his son who was staring at the food on the plate.

Although Kangkang was very greedy, he still restrained himself. When his parents sat down, he stretched out his hands and showed his palms for his mother to see: “Mom, I didn’t touch anything.” After he returned home and washed his hands, there was nothing. To touch means that the hands are clean and do not need to be washed again.

Yan Ruxu: “Then you have lunch at noon, do you want to eat at night?”

An expression of “I really can’t do anything about you” appeared on Kangkang’s face, he took a deep look at the smelling food, climbed down from the seat resignedly, and obediently followed his father to wash his hands.

Both Yan Ruxu and Kang Congxin were not very interested in foreign fast food, but Kangkang ate it happily. Said: “Mom and Dad, look, I can take such a bite!”

Kang Congxin: “Like a little hippopotamus.”

Yan Ruxu: “You took such a big bite and filled your mouth, how should you chew?”

When Kangkang closed his mouth, he found it difficult to chew. His teeth were blocked and he couldn’t close them.

Kang Congxin stretched out his palm: “Do you want to spit it out?”

Kangkang shook his head, expressing his reluctance.

Yan Ruxu shook his head, and said, “Spit it out, I’ll choke later.”

Kangkang tried again, but just spit out what was in his mouth, and then wanted to eat more, Kang Congxin hurriedly threw it aside.

Yan Ruxu: “Have you learned a lesson? This is called eating more than you can chew. Mom always tells you to eat carefully and slowly. Is there any reason?”

Kangkang was still reluctant to give up the big wasted hamburger, nodded his head and said, “Remember.”

He took a big gulp of Coke and continued to enjoy the rest of the hamburger. Suddenly, he stopped chewing and said, “My teeth are moving.” He chewed twice, swallowed the food in his mouth, and used his tongue Licking my teeth, I was very sure, and raised my voice with some excitement: “My teeth really move!”

Kangkang knows that every child will go through the process of tooth loss and re-growth. The first time he saw his older brothers and sisters, they had little gaping teeth, especially Kang Xuyang, who had been changing their teeth for a long time, and it wasn’t until recently that all their teeth came back together. His older brothers and sisters taught him a lot of experience in teeth replacement. Kangkang was very prepared. Not only did he not panic, but he also felt excited that I had finally changed my teeth and was finally going to be a grown-up child.

Yan Ruxu broke his son’s head, looked at the child’s white teeth, and asked, “Which one is loose?”

Kangkang pointed his tongue at the upper front tooth, sucked a mouthful of saliva, and said, “This one”.

Yan Ruxu wiped his hands again with a handkerchief, and pressed the small tooth: “It’s indeed loose, but it won’t fall out for a while.”

Kang Congxin also came over to look at his son’s little teeth, and asked with a smile, “Are you afraid?”

Kang Kanglian shook his head: “Not afraid, I want it to drop sooner?”

In less than a week, under Kangkang’s unremitting shaking, the first small baby tooth was honorably laid off, and Kangkang officially became a “small open tooth.”

As the first child in his class to lose his teeth, Kangkang was sought after and admired. This is due to Kangkang’s unremitting “brainwashing” of the children this week. He often shows the students his teeth that move quickly with his small chest high, and gives them popular science knowledge about tooth replacement, saying that it is becoming The sign of a big child, when you lose your teeth, you will be a big child, and you will no longer be a little kid like them.

Yan Ruxu didn’t know yet, because of this incident, there was a big or small disturbance in the preschool class 1.

The head teacher of the preschool class 1 where Kangkang works is Liang Hairong. She is in her thirties. She was assigned to the Kindergarten for employees of the Second Machinery Factory in order to accommodate the family members of the employees. I majored in early childhood education. After graduation, I have been serving as the head teacher of the preschool class and concurrently serving as a life hygiene teacher. I have helped the children from kindergarten to elementary school. It can be said that I have rich experience.

Liang Hairong was a little afraid of Kang Congxin, and he didn’t dare to talk to him. In Kangkang’s situation, Liang Hairong basically communicated with Yan Ruxu when she came to pick up the child. Liang Hairong would communicate with her about the child’s performance in class, what is worthy of praise, and what is lacking, etc. It is very objective, and Yan Ruxu has a good impression of Liang Hairong.

On this day, when Yan Ruxu went to pick up Kangkang, Liang Hairong chatted with Kangkang. She said that she found a lot of children picking their mouths in class, and she thought it was strange, so she asked her classmates. With Kangkang’s continuous “brainwashing”, many children in the class are proud of losing their teeth. They pick and shake their teeth when they have nothing to do. Although the teeth do not show signs of loosening, they hope that they will fall out sooner.

When Liang Hairong talked about this incident, his face was full of smiles, but Yan Ruxu was very surprised, and confirmed with her: “It is really our Yan Kang’s propaganda?”

Liang Hairong nodded: “Yes, I asked several children, and they all said that they learned from Yan Kang.”

Yan Ruxu: “How are those children? Are they all right?”

Liang Hairong: “I explained to the children that the teeth have a natural process of loosening and falling out. When the teeth are not loose, they cannot be manually shaken, otherwise it is easy to hurt the gums, bleed, and get injured. The children were frightened. He promised to make corrections. Kangkang is such a good boy, he realized that he had made an unintentional mistake, so he specifically asked me to admit his mistake, and helped me to dissuade the children.”

Yan Ruxu smiled unconsciously.

The two chatted a few more words, and Yan Ruxu led Kangkang home.

Kangkang held his mother’s hand and walked unhurriedly as usual, but he was a little silent, and he didn’t ask “what’s for dinner today” that he must ask every day, but looked at Yan Ruxu from time to time, with a worried expression, and asked : “Mom, why didn’t Dad come to pick me up today?”

Yan Ruxu: “Your father went to the workshop to check.”

“Oh”, Kangkang was a little disappointed, his big backer was not here, he was not sure, and he secretly glanced at his mother and couldn’t help asking: “Mom, did Teacher Liang tell you about me?”

Yan Ruxu smiled and asked, “Are you worried that Mr. Liang will sue you?”

Kangkang nodded and said, “Mom, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Yan Ruxu said: “Ms. Liang didn’t complain to my mother, but she talked about your matter objectively. Teacher Liang, in a responsible attitude to my parents, communicated with my mother about your situation.”

Seeing his mother’s gentle tone and not blaming him, Kangkang knew that his mother was not angry, and immediately became happy, holding his mother’s hand and asking, “Mom, what shall we have for dinner tonight?”

Yan Ruxu: “Father said to bring us meals from the cafeteria.”

“Wow,” Kangkang cheered, “Mom, did you say there is braised pork?”

The scale of the small canteen of the Machinery Group has expanded, and a new master chef has been transferred from a subsidiary factory. He is good at cooking southern Hunan cuisine. The braised pork is a must. I especially love to eat.

“Yes”, Yan Ruxu answered absent-mindedly, thinking about something.

Regarding the matter of Kangkang, whether it is big or small, Yan Ruxu really didn’t expect her child to have the ability to “fool” people. She wanted to educate the child, but she didn’t know where the child was wrong. If you don’t know where your child is wrong, you naturally don’t know where to start education.

She thought, let’s wait for Kang to come back and discuss it with him.

It’s not too late for Kang Congxin to come back. When Kangkang returns home, he washes his hands and face, eats another biscuit, and then he will come after watching TV for a while. Sure enough, he brought back Kangkang’s favorite braised pork, as well as Yan Ruxu’s favorite food. Magnolia slices.

After the three of them finished their meal, Yan Ruxu and Kang Congxin accompanied the child to finish the homework.

The child’s homework is not much, just reading and copying the few pinyin letters learned during the day. Kangkang has just started school, and he is very fresh about all of this. He is also actively studying and has completed the homework assigned by the teacher. He has a sense of accomplishment and said that he will bring his homework back to his grandparents on weekends.

Kang Congxin, who is an old father, is honored. He praised and encouraged his son a lot. He praised Kangkang so much that he was so happy that he even wanted to take out his textbooks and study hard.

Yan Ruxu hurriedly stopped him: “Don’t be greedy, take it little by little, first remember what you have learned, and take it step by step, combining work and rest.”

Kang Kang went to watch cartoons, and Kang Congxin happily flipped through his son’s homework. The more he read, the more he felt that his son’s writing was good.

If Jiang Xiaoxia sees his current appearance, he will never be so in awe that he dare not speak.

Yan Ruxu couldn’t help laughing, and told Kang about what happened in school again.

There are about 2 more chapters left to finish.
