The public security of the people, that was a hero to punish adultery and get rid of evil. Mother Chen had always worshipped the military from a young age, and her father, who had married into the army, had also fulfilled her dream of worshipping a hero.
In her eyes, although her son wasn't a hero like her father, he was still a top tier young man. No matter how good a young man was, he was still a man that had yet to open his heart.
He had only been studying for a dozen years and had been studying abroad for a long time. He had never had the chance to befriend a girl, but now, he was suddenly worshipped by a girl and married her off.
Chen's mother made up a series of thoughts, and somehow her heart was at ease. Her son had no feelings for Rinperan, and only had the pride of being worshipped by others.
He thought about the girls that he had introduced to Chen Jianguo. No matter how he looked at them, they were not the kind of people to display infatuation and worship. No wonder they were unable to attract Chen Jianguo's attention.
At the same time, her heart felt a bit happier. If such a person worships his son until he marries into their family, then Lin Pei Lan is also a good daughter-in-law.
"I'm not the kind of parent that isn't open-minded. Calm down a little, don't let me see her ordering you around again …" "I've been very busy lately, and my family matters are getting even more troublesome. It seems like I won't be able to live a peaceful life before and after I retire."
"No, it's good enough if I don't help you. Mom, don't worry! Peran is a very nice girl. She's at home, and I promise she'll be all right. "
"Humph!" I'll listen to how you praise her! What kind of person is my son? It's a blessing to be able to help her! "
It was not up to her son to decide whether it was good or bad. Mrs Chen did not think that a man who had just been bewitched by a woman would have a wise mind.
Naturally, his own intelligent and capable son was not an exception.
"…" Chen Jianguo couldn't help but hold his forehead. He was both happy and distressed to have a mother who unconditionally praised him. "Mom, let me add some more water for you …"
"Ah …" Auntie is back! "
Before he could finish his sentence, the kitchen door was already opened.
"Pei Lan, mom is back. Clean up the table, dad and Manny will start eating soon when they return."
Chen Jianguo was about to get up when he felt his mother looking at him. He immediately sat back down on the sofa and turned his head to instruct Lin Peran.
"Alright. "It's about to start. Auntie, you should sit for a while …"
When Lin heard Chen Jianguo calling out to someone, he knew that his elder had come back. He quickly put down the spatula in his hand and came out to greet him.
As for Chen Jianguo sitting calmly with his mother instead of helping her with the chores like before, she did not feel that anything was wrong. Instead, facing his mother, she felt like she had suddenly appeared at home.
"Go back to work!"
Chen Jianguo changed his posture. Seeing that the expression on his mother's face was changing again, he quickly handed the teacup to her and said, "Mom, drink some water." Today's matter in the kitchen will be handled by Peran. In a moment, if there's anything wrong with it, please give her some pointers. "
It was only after Jianguo handed over the water that Mother Chen finally took it. Following the direction of the water, she saw Lin Pilan in her apron, busying herself in the kitchen. This made her heart hurt again.
When this house didn't have a temporary nanny, she was the one who was busy managing it. Now, another woman called her daughter-in-law suddenly came. It was as if her own territory had been invaded.
Looking at her son who was obviously trying to please her with a smile, Mrs Chen felt a sudden wave of hesitation.
His family had been hectored into being, and the son he was most proud of, had he also been coaxed away by an outsider?
Thinking of this, Mrs Chen's heart was in a state of panic, and she was unable to catch her breath.
"Jianguo, promise your mother, you're not allowed to forget your mother after getting married!"
"Mom, don't worry! No matter what, you are my irreplaceable mother. "
Chen Jianguo was frightened by his mother's sudden change in mood. He did not say anything, but only nodded his head in assurance.
With his son's guarantee, the always astute and capable Mrs. Chan became as relieved as a child. At least she did not have to worry about her most important son being taken away by other women.
When Rinperan came out with the dishes, he could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the living room was a little different. Mother Chen was still indifferent to her, while Chen Jianguo sat beside her and poured tea for her, no longer speaking warmly to her like before.
After being at a loss for a while, Father Chen and Mannie Chen came back. They had met the stern Father Chen before, but this was the first time they met.
"Peran, this is little sister Manny. She's a freshman this year. "Manny, come and see your sister-in-law."
As soon as Mr Chen returned, the childish Mrs Chen left him and spoke to him, giving Mr Chen a chance to introduce her to Mr Lin.
"Hello, Manny."
The little girl was not as tall and sturdy as Chen Jianguo. She had a different demure temperament from her mother and was also a beauty with almond-shaped eyes and red lips. Lin Pei Lan liked her from the first glance.
"Oh!" "Hello."
Not only was Chen Manny similar in size to her mother, but she also had a similar temper. She nodded at Rinperan indifferently and went straight to the washroom.
Lin Pei Lan's face was flushed red. She felt a little awkward and thought to herself that Chen Manny probably didn't like her. She then patted her shoulder lightly with her big hand.
"This is the temper of the little girl. She is so cold to everyone." Chen Jianguo said warmly, "If there's anything else you need help with, I'll go and get it with you."
"No need. Just stay in the living room! "
Lin Pilan glanced in the direction of her parents. In front of her father, Mrs. Chen was smiling like a little girl, unlike the haughty and aloof ice beauty from before, "Uncle, auntie is coming out to eat in a while. I'll go and busy myself first."
"My mom doesn't have time to talk to me right now. We're going together."
Seeing Chen Jianguo follow him into the kitchen, returning to his previous diligent look, Rinperan suddenly wanted to laugh, as if he understood something.
"What's wrong? What makes you so funny? " Chen Jianguo was confused.
"You put on a show in front of me and then put on a show in front of auntie, reminding me of how my father was afraid my grandma would make things difficult for my mother …"
Thinking of her mother's abandoned son, Ringpelin didn't continue speaking with a sad expression.
His parents were very close, and his mother rarely went to the house. Every time his father left his mother at work, he would pretend to have quarreled with her before leaving, not letting her follow him.
At that time, she didn't know. She only thought that her father was rude and didn't treat her gently at all. He always scolded her whenever he wanted, but she had seen too much of him later on and realized that he was trying to protect her.
What Chen Jianguo did before this was obviously because he was afraid that his mother would make things difficult for him, so he intentionally put on a peremptory attitude in front of her.
Lin Pilan looked at Chen Jianguo with a strange expression. This man had once again made her look at him in a new light.
"Thank you for understanding." Chen did not know why Ringpelin did not continue.
