Chapter 473: 473 accident
Yuanyuan also started learning life here. Now they almost converse entirely in a foreign language, and Zhang Yaohan is completely in awe of their family.
It's really impressive. Now she can read original texts, what kind of mind is that? I really want to show her off to my conceited senior brother.
He's simply incomparable to her.
Tan Shaoting has been extremely busy lately because he's going out with them. So a deputy was sent from above, personally chosen by him.
Though he'll only be away for less than a month, they still have to coordinate work matters properly.
Zhang Yaohan has also left since he has his own work to do.
Now the three kids are rather unaccustomed, having been chased to study daily, and now it's just the three of them playing.
They will still occasionally come over to ask questions.
The trip is scheduled for early April, just a month away. So everyone is tensely preparing.
Tan Shaoting has already arranged all the work for the first half of the year and sent numerous people out.
During a meeting one day, he suddenly received a call.
Tan Shaoting frowned, put down the phone, made some arrangements, and drove home.
"Yuanyuan, I need to go out for a while, it'll probably take about ten days."
Su Yuanyuan stared at Tan Shaoting, "Take care of yourself."
"I know. Don't worry, I'll check it out."
The three kids ran over to hug his legs.
Tan Shaoting picked up all three of them. "Daddy is going out to work. You must listen to Mom at home, Daddy will be back soon."
All three nodded together. "Daddy, be safe."
Tan Shaoting nodded with emotion, put them down, glanced at his wife, and turned to leave.
Now it was just the mother and her three kids at home.
That day, as the four of them were leaving the cafeteria, they happened to run into a group of beautiful girls from the cultural troupe coming in for a meal.
Su Yuanyuan sensed malice but didn't care at all.
Inspired by Tan Shaoting, she believes that strength determines everything, especially combat power. This group, Su Yuanyuan truly looks down on them.
So she led the three kids past them when suddenly she saw a leg stick out.
Su Yuanyuan smiled. Just this tactic? She stepped directly on the ankle, thinking if you don't care for yourself, don't blame me.
A scream was heard. Su Yuanyuan still smiling looked at the girl who screamed pitifully.
"How's that feel? Nice, huh? If it happens again, I'll cripple that leg."
The other girls were somewhat scared seeing the smiling yet cold-speaking woman.
Su Yuanyuan walked past them as if nothing had happened. She didn't care what others thought.
She was past the age of caring about others' opinions.
The mother and her kids walked home. "Mom, we saw she was the one who stretched out her leg first, was she trying to trip you?"
"Yes, but I saw through it, so I taught her a lesson."
"Hmph, I remembered her. When Dad comes back, I'll bring him to deal with her."
Su Yuanyuan wouldn't restrain her kids from that. In the future, she'll let them experience more things. They shouldn't be naïve.
After returning home, the three kids listened to the radio while Su Yuanyuan leisurely unwrapped stones, waiting to carve.
Now she had her own time to do what she wanted.
She didn't understand carving, read an ancient book but was still quite confused. Fortunately, with Divine Sense, it shouldn't be too bad.
When the kids woke up, she took them out to play. She felt people secretly watching her.
Su Yuanyuan's personality was somewhat solitary. It was only in this life she had Tan Shaoting, kids, some sincerely caring people; otherwise, she'd be like in her past life. She really didn't care about others' thoughts.
So she led the kids as usual.
The four jumped rope, the kids had great fun, attracting a crowd of children.
But they just watched from the side.
The kids might have inherited Su Yuanyuan's personality flaw, not caring if there's company, playing as they please, not feeling bad without playmates.
After playing outside for over two hours, "Shall we finish today? It's time to wash up and prepare for dinner."
"Mom, I want to eat meat porridge," Qi Hong said a bit hesitantly. He knew eating at home required Mom to cook.
"Sure, we'll have seafood meat porridge."
The three kids laughed. They were a bit tired of eating at the cafeteria all the time.
Honestly, they wouldn't feel lonely without companions, so eating at the cafeteria didn't matter.
The four chatted while walking home.
After they left, people started talking. Few spoke well of Su Yuanyuan, mainly because she gave off a cold vibe.
In others' eyes, she seemed aloof, easily perceived as disdainful, prone to being marginalized.
"She's only acknowledged as the leader's wife, otherwise who'd bother with her?"
"Thinks we're beneath her? But I heard she's from the countryside like us, what's with the arrogance? Just like a city person, really annoying to look at."
Few dared to say it out loud, but many agreed.
"Isn't that so? When I used to talk to her, she'd barely respond, that attitude was irritating."
Most people still ate at the cafeteria for convenience and a good meal. So they didn't need to cook and had time to gossip.
This group was just jealous of Su Yuanyuan, having a good-looking, capable husband, and three kids.
She was good-looking too. That's what every woman dreams of. She had it all; how could she not be resented?
After the four got home, the kids washed up themselves. Though not very clean, getting their clothes wet, Su Yuanyuan still let them do it themselves.
Though she spoiled them, self-reliance was also important.
She cooked with shrimp, beef, eggs, and some scallop meat. Such porridge would surely be very fresh.
After eating, the three of them were used to going out for exercise every evening. With Dad not home, they thought they couldn't go out, but twenty minutes later, Su Yuanyuan took them out to play.
Even smart kids are still kids. They didn't care about having peers but enjoyed going out to play.
Su Yuanyuan watched them run around the training ground and joined in.
