“Yes they are, are you envious of them?” Su Mian raised her eyebrows. She wanted to provoke Su Jin Long. Although she knew that he had performed well in the past two months, the age of sixteen or seventeen was important for the formation of outlooks on life, values, and the world. In this period of time, if there was no one that guided him, and he was influenced by the bad boys in the village, even the slightest carelessness might lead to deviations.
“Tch, what’s that? I’ll be a soldier in another two years. I will definitely surpass my brother-in-law and Instructor Wu. I’ll perform well, defend my family and country, and be a battle hero myself at that time!” Su Jin Long held himself back for quite some time and said. He said that so energetically that it was as if he was already a battle hero.
Su Mian was amused by his serious look, “Just talk about it when you make it there. It is just bragging when you say it now!”
“Xiao Long is so motivated about everything now!” He Qin couldn’t help but respond, knowing that Su Mian was just intentionally inspiring Su Jin Long.
“In the past two months, Su Jin Long exercised in the morning, went to school during the day, and came back to help Su Jiang Hai as a carpenter at night, and arranged his life in an orderly manner. He also cut ties with Su Jin Biao’s group in the village. Whenever he has the time, he will practise the capture technique and Tai Chi you taught him.
Every morning Xiao Long will go to the open space under the bridge to practise. He attracted a group of people of all ages and genders. Now, dozens of people follow him to learn every day, and Xiao Long is practicing more vigorously. “
That was good, Su Mian can finally rest assured about Su Jin Long.
She would never let Su Jin Long experience the same as he did in her previous life.
Su Mian finally smiled after listening to He Qin, “Alright, I know you behaved well, even our mother also speaks for you. Hurry up, go and steam this pot of dumplings.”
“Sure!” Su jin Long went happily back to the kitchen with the dumplings after being praised by Su Mian.
Of course he knew that Su Mian was kind to him. In the past few months, if it weren’t for Su Mian, he wouldn’t have discovered how Su Jin Biao was. If it weren’t for his sister, he might still be Su Jin Biao’s attendant now. Su Jin Biao beat someone up again a few days ago. Fortunately, he didn’t tag along with him, otherwise he would have framed him again.
Su Jin Long thought that the most important thing for him now was to train himself well, to grow tall, like his brother-in-law. His brother-in-law was almost 1.9 meters, so he still had a long way to go!
Su Jin Long put the dumplings in the pot, and the pot boiled again in a few minutes.
After over ten minutes, the hot dumplings were served on the table, and Su Mian and He Qin also wrapped up the rest.
Su Jin Long had been gluttonous for a while. He had already eaten a few when he brought the pot up, and his tongue was scalded. This time the dumplings were served on the table, he just gulped down one after another.
Su Mian was indeed hungry. The high school cafeteria food was really poor. She also ate a whole large plate, which made He Qin feel distressed. “Xiao Mian, why not let me bring over some dumplings for you every weekend?”
Su Jin Long was unhappy after hearing that. He almost choked to death before swallowing a mouthful of dumplings. He coughed with his tears streaming out, “Mother, your biased treatment is just too obvious!”
He didn’t get to eat the dumplings after one whole month, why can Su Mian eat them once a week!
Su Mian helped Su Jin Long pat his back, and then said, “It is alright, Mother, the dumplings you made are just so delicious that I ate a few more today. From now on, if Xiao Long wants to eat, you just make it for him. He is still growing. Over the weekend, I can get myself dumplings outside of the school.”
He Qin only nodded after that. Now the family conditions were good, eating dumplings was not a problem. She just felt distressed that Su Mian couldn’t eat dumplings as she was not around. And when Su Mian said that, He Qin also thought it through.
