Return to 90 and start a career

Li Manjun and Shirley Zhong made an appointment to have dinner together. Seeing that it was almost time in the afternoon, he grabbed his daughter from her sleep and tidied her up. She also simply put on light makeup and got ready to go out.

Zhao Yong was originally lying on the sofa. When he heard the movement, he sat up suddenly and asked, "Are you going out?"

"Well, didn't I tell you last night?" Li Manjun remembered that she had told him when she came in yesterday.

Zhao Yong forgot that he was too happy yesterday to pay attention to what she said.

"With whom?" Zhao Yong asked curiously.

Every year I answer for my mother, "My godmother treats me and my mother to delicious food."

"Didn't you call me?" Zhao Yong looked at Li Manjun and asked expectantly.

Li Manjun wanted to say that he didn't shout, but when he saw those expectant eyes, he couldn't bear it. Thinking that he had been abandoned for three days, it seemed cruel to leave him to eat alone at home today.

It happened to be Sunday again. Li Manjun guessed that Lu Shengming might also be at home. He smiled helplessly at Zhao Yong and motioned to him to wait while he made a call first.

"Is your husband at home too? Our two families haven't gotten together for a long time. It's almost New Year's Day, why don't we get together in advance?"

When Shirley Zhong heard Li Manjun speak, she guessed what she was going to say. She turned around and glanced at Lu Shengming, who was holding her son and playing with toys. In fact, his ears were perked up silently and eavesdropping. She said funnyly:

"Okay, then let's invite your husband to come with us. Are you ready? I'm going out too."

Li Manjun smiled and said, "See you later."

After hanging up the phone, without her needing to speak, Zhao Yong, who had eavesdropped on the two women's calls, rushed into the room, quickly changed into clothes suitable for going out, walked out with a smile, picked up his daughter, and hugged his wife, "Let's go!"

Li Manjun smiled and said to Aunt Guo: "Sister Guo, let's go out to eat. You can eat more tonight."

"Go, go, don't worry about me." Aunt Guo said softly.

The happiest thing every year is that my parents are together and I can see my godmother’s little brother.

"Mom, can my brother walk?"

Li Manjun nodded politely, "You can walk very steadily now, but you have to pay attention to safety outside. You can't run around with your brother and leave the sight of adults, you know?"

"Yeah, I know!" Niannian responded confidently.

Zhao Yong patted his daughter's little head and thought she was so cute.

Nian Nian stuck out his tongue at his father and made a face. Zhao Yong raised his hand angrily as if to hit his head, and Nian Nian immediately put on a flattering smile.

Li Manjun helplessly watched the childish interaction between father and daughter, and led them into the hotel they had made an appointment with Shirley Zhong.

Their family of three arrived first. Shirley Zhong was very mysterious and didn't say what to eat or whether she had booked a private room. Li Manjun's family of three were waiting in the lobby.

Nian Nian is an active age, so I keep in mind what my mother said about staying within sight, walking around the lobby, looking there, and she is very bold. The waiter sees her cute and says hello to her, and she also says hello to others.

The waiter seemed to like children more and grabbed a handful of candies for her.

Every year my eyes lit up with surprise, "Thank you, beautiful sister!"

"You're welcome, your little mouth is so sweet." The waiter felt happy and gave her another handful. "I'll give you a few more, but you can't eat them all at once. Be careful of tooth decay."

"Yeah, sister, you're so kind." Nian Nian smiled brightly at her, then held a hand full of candy and handed it to her parents as if it were a gift, saying it was from the waiter's sister.

The couple took one pill each and gave two to Nian Nian. The rest were put into Li Manjun's bag, "Keep it for home and eat later."

I don’t have any objection every year. After all, I am very satisfied if I can eat two candies today.

Normally I can only eat one pill a day.

Of course, there are other snacks such as biscuits, milk, fruits, etc.

After the family of three finished eating one candy, Shirley Zhong and her family also arrived.

Nian Nian came forward happily and asked, "Godmother, godfather, where is the baby?"

Shirley Zhong bent down and pinched her little face, pointing behind her. Lu Shengming put the son in his arms to the ground and told him to go play with his sister.

Nian Nian immediately acted like a big sister, holding on to her younger brother who was not very good at talking, and leading him forward.

Li Manjun asked curiously: "Does your son have a nickname?"

Shirley Zhong went to the front desk to make arrangements, and Lu Shengming replied: "I haven't thought about it yet. Now I'm calling you Baobao."

When he heard someone calling him, the little guy immediately turned his head and looked at you with his big eyes, as if asking: Are you calling me?

The adults waved at him in a funny way, and the little guy clenched his fists excitedly and barked in response to them.

Nian Nian felt that his brother was so cute, so he came close to him, face to face, and rubbed his chubby cheek, "Baby, you are so cute~"

"Love!" The baby repeated what his sister said seriously, opened his little hands, and hugged his sister. The two little guys were wearing cotton-padded jackets, like two little rubber balls stuck together.

Li Manjun waited for Shirley Zhong to come over and said, "I thought of a nickname for your son."

Shirley Zhong raised her eyebrows and asked funnyly: "What's your name?"

Lu Shengming and Zhao Yong, who were guarding their two children, also looked over curiously. Under the expectant eyes of several people, Li Manjun said three words seriously: "Router!"

The three of them looked confused, what a strange name.

Li Manjun was the only one who couldn't stop laughing.

"Anyway, just tell me whether this nickname is easy to pronounce or not." Li Manjun asked Shirley Zhong and his wife with a smile.

Lu Shengming recited several times silently, "Don't say it, you really don't say it, it's weird that it rhymes."

Shirley Zhong rolled her eyes at Li Manjun, "What's so weird."

However, Li Manjun kept calling the router, and the baby actually responded, as if he knew he was being called.

Shirley Zhong helplessly held her forehead, but couldn't help but tentatively called her son: "Router?"

When the baby sees his mother, he says, "Mummy!"

Shirley Zhong: "."

Lu Shengming: "."

Only Li Manjun's laughter resounded throughout the private room.

Every year I see my mother laugh, and I laugh too.

When the router saw his sister smiling, he also showed a toothless smile, "Giggle~"

Zhao Yong hurriedly tried to smooth things over for his wife and said to Lu Shengming, "You don't have to listen to her nonsense."

Lu Shengming shook his head, "It's okay. Although it sounds a bit strange at first, it still rhymes. I've heard you shout it a lot, and it's quite interesting."

Shirley Zhong looked at her husband in surprise, "Are you serious?"

Lu Shengming nodded. He was not a joker, but he did find it interesting.

Shirley Zhong smiled helplessly and signaled to Li Manjun to stop for a while, the food was about to be served.

Li Manjun suppressed her smile and looked at the door expectantly. The waiters brought the dishes one by one.

Before Shirley Zhong made it so mysterious, Li Manjun had guessed many answers, but she didn't expect that it turned out to be a banquet of insects.

"Shirley Zhong, I can't tell you are so harsh!" Li Manjun exclaimed, rubbing the goosebumps on his face.

Shirley Zhong smiled and picked up a handful of bamboo insects with her chopsticks first, eating with a look of enjoyment.

She didn't persuade you to eat it, but seeing the way she was enjoying it, you couldn't help but want to give it a try.

After taking a bite of fried grasshoppers, Zhao Yong and Li Manjun opened their eyes in surprise. It was really good!
