Wanyu immediately gave him a look, "Do you know your own limits or not, weigh it in your heart. Come on, let’s bike to work."
"Alright, daughter, your mom and I are off to work, you stay home and study hard," Jiang Changhai said as he walked outside.
Just as Jiang Changhai had pushed the bike out, Wang Li’s Mother came in, cradling a watermelon and two bunches of grapes, with her son tagging along.
Wanyu was startled by a pair of dark peepers, "Oh my, sister-in-law, what have you done to your eyes ?"
"What’s wrong? Don’t they look good?" Wang Li’s Mother, seeing the shocked expressions on both Jiang Changhai and Wanyu’s faces, quickly touched the corners of her own eyes. The source of thɪs content is noⅴelfire.net
The corner of Wanyu’s mouth twitched, as she simply couldn’t say they looked good.
"Sister-in-law, your eyeliner is way too thick, eyeliner isn’t supposed to be drawn like that. You have to draw it according to the shape of your eyes."
"Ah? Even drawing eyeliner has so much to it?" Wang Li’s Mother asked in surprise when she heard Wanyu explain it as so complicated.
"Yeah, you probably haven’t done this before and are not very good at it. Come on, into the house, I’ll do it for you and you watch and learn. Practice a few times and you’ll get better," Wanyu said, dragging Wang Li’s Mother into the house.
Wang Li looked at Jiang Changhai with a bit of schadenfreude, "Heh, Uncle Jiang, I told my mom this morning that her eye makeup was scary, but she wouldn’t believe me and wanted to hit me. Now that my aunt has said so, she should believe it."
Jiang Changhai saw the kid teasing his own biological mother and ruffled his head vigorously, "Oh, you, daring to make fun of your mom. I’ll just tell her and let her reward you with a meal of stir-fried bamboo shoots with meat."
"Hey, Uncle Jiang, I was just joking, you really can’t sell me out," Wang Li pleaded upon hearing that.
"Hmph, alright, just teasing you. Come on, inside," Jiang Changhai, seeing him so scared and knowing he truly feared his mother, didn’t tease him further but put his arm around the boy’s shoulder and led him inside.
Inside, Wanyu redid Wang Li’s Mother’s eyeliner, and this time she looked much younger and more spirited.
"Xiao Su, your hands are so skillful, it’s done in just a jiffy and without much trouble. I woke up extra early to draw my eyeliner and still couldn’t get it right after half an hour," Wang Li’s Mother said, somewhat dispirited.
"Sister-in-law, it’s your first time, isn’t it? Naturally, you’re a bit unpracticed, but it’s not a big deal, you’ll get better with more practice," Wanyu comforted her.
Seeing that it was almost time and not wanting to delay them any further, Wang Li’s Mother had Wang Li place the watermelon and grapes on the coffee table, saying with a smile, "Xiao Su, Xiao Jiang, I bought this watermelon and grapes for you. Have them when you come back from work tonight."
"Sister-in-law, this is too much, please take them back and enjoy. We already have this at home," Wanyu still politely tried to refuse.
"Xiao Su, look at you, acting like a stranger now. What’s there to be embarrassed about? This summer, my little Demon Lord of Mayhem will be a bother to Mianmian. If you don’t accept this small gift, I’d feel awkward sending the child over to you," Wang Li’s Mother said straightforwardly.
Upon hearing this, Wanyu quickly accepted, "Sister-in-law, you’re too polite. It’s no big deal, the kids also love playing together."
"That’s right, there we go. Alright, Xiao Su, Xiao Jiang, you better head to work. I won’t keep you any longer," Wang Li’s Mother said, noticing it was getting late.
She had to go to work as well.
