Chen Hansheng knew that Mo Ke was coming, so when he chatted with Empress Dowager Liang, he had a foreshadowing in advance.
He thought that because of Shen Youchu, the two would meet sooner or later. Besides, according to his observation, there was no deep entanglement between Old Chen and Mo Ke.
Maybe they had no feelings for each other, or they were very mature and could define the relationship between family and friends.
After Mo Ke entered the door, she found a middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa. She was stunned at first, but when she looked at Chen Hansheng next to her, she instantly understood.
It turned out that they were mother and son!
So, she should be Chen Zhaojun's wife, Liang Meijuan.
When Mo Ke changed her shoes, she bowed her head and thought about how to deal with it. She used to be a university professor, and now she was a deputy cadre. Her ability to respond to emergencies was still very strong.
Of course, the most important reason was that Mo Ke's heart was upright, so she didn't panic.
Chen Hansheng was also introducing. He said in an ignorant tone, "Mom, this is Director Mo of the Education Department. She is also from Harbor City. Director Mo, this is my mother, Ms. Liang Meijuan."
"Hello."
Mo Ke greeted and sat on the sofa, a few seats away from Liang Meijuan.
"Well, hello."
Liang Meijuan also nodded, shaking her shoulders uncomfortably.
Both of them were observing each other. Although Mo Ke was married, she had never had a child, and she had the habit of eating vegetarian food. In addition, her work was relatively easy. She looked like an intellectual.
Liang Meijuan was full of the taste of life, and she didn't look old, which showed that the family was very harmonious.
In particular, Chen Hansheng still held his mother's shoulder. Mo Ke was actually very envious of his intimate attitude.
But Feng Gui felt a little strange. After opening an independent shop, this kid's ability to observe people's expressions became stronger and stronger. He seemed to feel the abnormality between Auntie Liang and Auntie Mo.
It was reasonable to say that even if they didn't talk about anything, they should be chatting normally. Why did he feel that Auntie Liang was a little repulsed?
"Meijuan."
Finally, Mo Ke took the initiative to speak. First, she didn't want this atmosphere to continue. Second, she really had something to discuss.
"Where is Chen?"
Mo Ke started with the simplest question, "Why didn't he come?"
"That's caring for him."
Empress Dowager Liang gave a cold snort in her heart, but she still politely replied on the surface, "Old Chen is on duty right now, he might not even come during the Spring Festival."
"I see."
Mo Ke nodded. It was normal for civil servants to be on duty during the Spring Festival, especially for many first-line grassroots units. Police officers were on duty all year round.
Since Chen Zhaojun was not here, Mo Ke changed the topic to Chen Hansheng. She praised him and said, "Hansheng is very powerful now. He has achieved so much in his early twenties. This is inseparable from your training."
"He's usually very infuriating."
Liang Meijuan glanced at Chen Hansheng. "If it's possible, I don't want this son anymore."
"Ho ho ~"
Mo Ke smiled and said, "Han Sheng is very smart. Previously, I wanted to discuss with my lover about recognizing Han Sheng as my godson."
Mo 'er's mother did have this idea before, but it was mercilessly rejected by Empress Dowager Liang. The purpose of this sentence was to "play the supporting role", probably to express that Chen Hansheng was really outstanding.
But in Liang Meijuan's ears, it sounded a little different.
"What's wrong?"
Empress Dowager Liang thought in her heart, "You still want to steal my son?"
"Youchu is even better."
Mo Ke looked at Shen Youchu's figure in the kitchen and said, "Beautiful, kind, gentle, and strong. When I was hospitalized last year, Youchu stayed with me for several days."
This was supposed to reflect Shen Youchu's good virtues, but Empress Dowager Liang felt that Mo Ke was stealing her "treatment".
What was even more "infuriating" was that Empress Dowager Liang found that the sweater Mo Keyu was wearing seemed to be Shen Youchu's knitting skills.
"Good, Youchu even knitted a sweater for her."
Liang Meijuan's face was calm, but her heart was filled with grievance as she thought, "After stealing my son, she's now stealing my daughter-in-law?"
Mo Ke did not know that Liang Meijuan was feeling jealous. She thought that praising Chen Hansheng and Shen Youchu would make her feel better, so she began to talk about business, "Meijuan, I won't hide it from you. I don't have a child myself. My husband works abroad all year round, so my life is quite simple."
"But after knowing Hansheng and Youchu, I have more fun to look forward to in my heart."
Mo Ke pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and said in a sincere tone, "So I want to do something for Youchu. They will graduate from college next year. I have a personal suggestion. Let the two children get married during the summer vacation and then go to graduate school."
"Maybe when they graduate, Youchu will have a second child."
Mo Ke made a joke, "At that time, I can also help take care of the children."
Liang Meijuan was originally interested in this proposal, but Mo Ke said that she would help take care of the children. Liang Meijuan was unhappy again and her sense of territory became stronger.
"It's okay to steal a son and daughter-in-law, but you even want to steal an unborn baby."
Liang Meijuan was very upset and answered perfunctorily, "Marriage is a big thing, so it's still up to Old Chen to decide. He's still the one in charge."
"Okay."
Mo Ke understood. But she was going back to Harbor City tomorrow. She could find time to visit her old classmate and discuss it with him.
When Empress Dowager Liang and Mo 'er's mother were chatting, Chen Hansheng was sitting next to them. He felt that the atmosphere of this meeting was peaceful and friendly. Empress Dowager Liang's attitude was a little cold, but it didn't matter.
The only annoying one was Chen Lan. When they talked about "marriage" just now, Chen Lan kept kicking her brother's butt. The meaning of her words was very obvious.
You and Youchu are married, but what about Little Yu 'er?
… ….
When it was time to eat, Dong'er and Shen Youchu both made their best dishes, but Empress Dowager Liang didn't have much of an appetite. She was full after eating a small bowl and watched Mo Ke put food in little Aning's bowl.
After dinner, Mo Ke sat for a while and stood up to leave. Liang Meijuan stood up out of courtesy.
After Mo Ke left, Liang Meijuan flung her sleeves and went into the bedroom.
Fortunately, except for Chen Hansheng, no one else noticed. Shen Youchu and Dong'er were washing the dishes. Feng Gui and Shen Ruyi also left in the car. Chen Lan was texting with her classmate.
Chen Hansheng pushed the door open and walked into the bedroom. He saw Empress Dowager Liang standing on the balcony, silently looking at the stars outside the window.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Chen Hansheng asked, "It's cold in the living room. Why are you thinking about life here?"
"What are you doing here?"
Liang Meijuan said directly, "Mo Ke just came downstairs. Go and see her off. After all, she has acknowledged you as her godson."
"Okay."
Chen Hansheng immediately understood and said with a smile, "Old Madam, you're really jealous. Aunt Mo just said that. How can you take it seriously? Calm down. Let's go back to the room and watch TV."
Chen Hansheng said as he patted her back to please her.
"You father and son are both bad people!"
The more Liang Meijuan thought, the sadder she felt. She took out her phone and said, "I'm going to call Chen Zhaojun and ask him about all the details of what happened between him and Mo Ke in the past."
"It's all in the past. Why are you still calling him? In the afternoon, you said that you're broad-minded and don't care about the past."
Chen Hansheng stopped her and said, "Old Chen is alone at home. He might be feeling sorry for himself. If you have something to say, don't say it to him. Say it to …"
Liang Meijuan turned to Chen Hansheng. She was waiting for her son to say, "Say it to me." Then she would scold him right in his face.
"Say it to Shen Youchu and Chen Lan!"
Chen Hansheng said righteously, "I know Shen Youchu. Even if you get mad at her, she won't hold a grudge at all. She will carefully reflect on her mistakes."
"Chen Lan is even worse. Anyway, she's not your biological daughter. Just scold her harder."
