Strict Wife Of The '70s Manages The Household-Chapter 517
Chapter 517
Lin Lan raised her wine cup, “Director Han, please speak.”
The children also picked up their bowls one after another, laughing, “Director Han is speaking.”
Sanwang was especially loud, somewhat wishing that he could stand on the stool to show his height.
With a smile on his eyebrows, Han Qingsong clinked Lin Lan’s small wine cup with his own wine bowl, “We’ll leave the speech work to comrade Lin Lan.”
Erwang laughed, “Please share some thoughts with us, Deputy Director Lin.”
Lin Lan almost choked on her saliva as she waved her hand at his claim, “Don’t speak of nonsense.”
“Publicity Team Leader Lin,” Maisui changed the term.
Sanwang crackled and clapped his hands, “Welcome, welcome!”
Xiaowang raised his fist and said, “Hello, Leader Lin!”
Lin Lan was about to be overwhelmed by their constant praise, but she cleared her throat, “Then, I will say a few words. Number one, I want to thank Director Han for working hard all the time to handle the expenses for this family, allowing you all to go to school and providing for everything we wear and use. The second point I want to make is to express my gratitude for Eldest Brother Dawang for taking care of his younger siblings and contributing to hard labour in order to help earn work points for the family. Also, let me thank Sister Maisui and Second Brother Erwang for studying hard and achieving great academic achievements. Plus, the two of them always help me to cook and clean the house, relieving me of a large portion of my responsibilities.”
Every time she talked about someone, she would look over and toast her cup with the other person’s bowl.
Dawang glanced at her quickly and looked down at the bowl, obviously a little embarrassed.
Erwang and Maisui happily exchanged glances with Lin Lan. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Sanwang’s eyes glowed eagerly as he looked forward to his mother’s praise. The two hands that held the bowl were practically trembling with excitement.
However, Lin Lan went around him and toasted Xiaowang’s bowl with her cup, “I want to thank Xiaowang for being optimistic and active. His eyes have been getting better recently and with his singing and harmonica playing, it has given us the most beautiful music to enjoy.”
Xiaowang blushed and looked at Lin Lan happily. His small hands were not big enough to hold his drink, so he lowered his head and took a big gulp.
Only then did Lin Lan look at Sanwang.
The light in Sanwang’s eyes was about to go out, but now they burned with intensity.
Lin Lan reached out and did the same thing, “Our Little Third Brother is the happy fruit of our family. We must thank him for his self-sacrificing spirit for constantly entertaining us and bringing us a whole house of happiness.”
Sanwang was happy and he laughed loudly, “Mother, let me tell you, if you give me a salary, I have more jokes to come.”
I included you out of empathy but you’re really just overestimating yourself at this point, huh?
“Okay, everyone, eat and drink well.”
Han Qingsong stretched out his arm towards her. As Lin Lan touched her small wine cup with his, Sanwang immediately did the same with his bowl.
Boys enjoyed imitating adults the most, especially when there was wine on the table.
“Alright, that’s enough toasting. Your drink is going to slosh its way onto the food if we do anymore,” Lin Lan reminded Sanwang.
Therefore, the children buried themselves in the luxurious dishes. Her sweet and sour pork ribs, candied sweet potatoes and scrambled eggs with chives were the most popular among the children. Han Qingsong liked stir-fried pork with spicy peppers the most. Xiaowang and Maisui, on the other hand, also liked to have the spinach-meat tofu dish.
