The item in her hand was probably a notebook, and without thinking, she directly put it away.
She noticed another notebook under the book she had left open. She put that away as well.
The four mostly sat in the lobby, watching people co and go.
They bought so toys and supplies, so indeed better than those back ho. Bringing them back might allow so knowledgeable person to study them.
"Yes, we are. Why? Do you miss ho?"
"We marvel at them, and they marvel at us too, don’t they?" Qi Wen teased her second brother.
Moreover, they had already learned Su Yuanyuan’s identity and looked down on her in their hearts. Thus, no one interacted with them.
Basic etiquette remains essential. "Thank you. I don’t drink."
After they left, people below began discussing them. Read today on
Su Yuanyuan didn’t know how to respond to her son’s words.
"Yes, I’ll always be with you until you grow up and don’t need ."
But they didn’t say that, choosing to listen to Dad. Dad’s advice was surely the most fair.
The four returned to their room, putting away today’s purchases into their own bags.
This ti, she need not worry; all three children had no fascination with this place.
Su Yuanyuan just glanced at them and ceased paying attention, instead continuing to read the newspaper to the children.
Without Dad present, he considered himself the man of the house; it was better for him to handle this.
The next day, the four didn’t go out, while the rest spent the whole day outside.
"Mom, are we going ho?"
"Why?"
All three kids were troubled. They wanted to go to school like other kids, but also wanted to see Dad every day.
Su Yuanyuan laughed. She had once wondered if she would need to force a change of mind if the children were drawn here.
Su Yuanyuan didn’t really like these occasions. Fortunately, she was just accompanying, not needing to socialize. Continue the excitent on fr ee
"Mom, will you accompany us to the city for school?"
At dinner, it was confird; they were leaving the afternoon after tomorrow.
"You can, but if you do, we might not live with Dad. Of course, I an when he’s busy."
"There are no schools at the garrison. If you want to study, you must go to the city, and your dad may not co ho from work daily."
"Thank you, sir. My na is Tan Qiyan, pleased to et you."
The four of them returned to the hotel with large and small bags.
"Alright, don’t worry. Let’s ask Dad’s opinion."
A few won gathered, all disparaging Su Yuanyuan.
They too were laden with bags and felt a bit embarrassed seeing Su Yuanyuan looking at them.
"Mom, I saw kids attending school here. Will we study when we go back?"
The others, even if silent, didn’t want to offend these familiar people over soone they didn’t know well.
This surprised Jas even more. How could this little kid speak a foreign language so well? How old was this kid to speak as if it were his mother tongue?
"Little one, can we get acquainted?"
At the checkout, all four of them were scrutinized thoroughly, finding nothing wrong before they were allowed to pay.
"Alright, stop it. In the future, let’s not associate with her when we go back."
They selectively forgot it was mom who hit soone else.
So she appeared particularly unsociable. The people here had so stature, and refusal didn’t sit well with them.
It wasn’t until dinner ti that the rest returned.
"Who wouldn’t say so? Coming here just to shop and buy things every day. Truly lacking vision."
Qi Yan put down his cutlery, gracefully wiped his mouth, "Sir, my mother doesn’t drink, but thank you for your kindness."
"Of course, at least he can take you out for exercise every evening."
The four of them were eating steak when the sa official from before approached again, carrying a glass of red wine.
Jas raised an eyebrow at her fluent language, "You could try it."
Qi Yan spoke, "Mom, the three of us discussed it; we want to learn martial arts."
That evening, more than ten officials and their families ca to host them.
They didn’t plan to go out again, opting instead to bathe and change clothes.
All three children thought simultaneously, how could there be a ti they didn’t need their mom?
They sat in a corner, listening to the piano and chatting softly.
Seeing the four of them back with loads of shopping bags, they looked at them with disdain — a small-minded mindset, bringing back lots of things every day was a bit embarrassing.
There’s no choice; being behind in everything ans having to resort to these disreputable actions.
As they erged from the library, Qi Yan sighed, "Mom, this feeling is terrible, as if we are thieves."
They just felt that if they were strong, they could protect mom.
Actually, so of the group would also go out shopping, and Su Yuanyuan was invited but refused.
"It’s really embarrassing."
"Mom, when we return, will Dad spend ti with us?"
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "That’s doable. Discuss it with your dad when we get back; he might already have plans. I don’t know."
Su Yuanyuan couldn’t be bothered with them and took the kids straight upstairs.
The two boys had also picked out a few books, and she casually took two magazines, holding her daughter’s hand to et up with the sons.
"Perhaps not? It’s just their appearance, isn’t it?"
When they went downstairs, they noticed that the others were no longer there.
All three nodded. Their mom getting hit left a deep mark on them.
She had a purpose, taking the kids around. She didn’t want to mix with them.
When won get jealous, it can be troubleso. The most apparent is verbal exclusion.
"That’s novelty enough, though."
In truth, they were jealous — beautiful, young, a capable husband, and three children. In many ways, a life better than theirs.
"Yes, it feels so uncomfortable here. It’s better at ho."
The four of them then moved on to the supermarket, where that sensation was absent.
"Mom, if Yuan Xi saw a foreigner, she’d surely be shocked."
"Madam, please enjoy the wine. Steak pairs authentically with red wine."
Even though he knew he was still young, hiding behind mom felt terrible. He didn’t want to experience that again. He said a man of the house should protect his mom and siblings. Qi Yan had already planned in his heart.
