Is this man reliable? His career is also a very important factor. A lot can be understood just from one's career, so although it's a bit impolite to ask this question at the first meeting, Wu Jing still asked.
She wants to make a final judgment on what kind of person Dudu's father really is. She won't let the mother and son be fooled. It's better to be as careful.
Yuan Long didn't think it's impolite. From the Dudu's words, it can be seen that this Miss Wu usually takes care of both mother and son. Asking about his job is probably her wanting to help the mother and son as a gatekeeper. He feels it's excusable.
Yuan Long seriously replied, "I am a soldier."
I am a soldier. The meaning of these words themselves is extraordinary.
No matter how many bad speculations Wu Jing had about Dudu's father in the past, after hearing this answer at this moment, all of them disappeared, and was replaced by her previous sense of guilt about him.
Soldiers, to a large extent, are synonymous with reliability. If such a career is unreliable, what other kind of career can you trust?
A soldier will not do the heartless thing of deceiving a young girl to become pregnant and then abandon her mercilessly and deny his own flesh and blood, or at least the upright man in front of him will not.
Wu Jing has completely overturned the "scumbag" brand she had set up for Yuan Long.
This Yu Shanshan, why didn't she reveal some information about Dudu's dad before? Wu Jing kept complaining that his father was a scumbag, and in her mind, she don't know how many times she had hacked Dudu's dad to death.
Now realizing that she seems to have wrongfully blame someone hastily. Isn't it embarrassing? Are you ashamed?
Yu Shanshan is to blame!
Wu Jingyan knife swished towards Yu Shanshan, Who would've known that this was for the best: Shanshan didn’t even realize that Wu Jing was staring at her because she was too busy eating spareribs and chicken wings. that she almost licked her fingers.
Wu Jing could not bear to look at her image eating like this and counted the bones in front of Shanshan. One, two, three, four, five....
Oh lord, at least half of the meat went into her stomach, eating way more than Dudu.
Is there a woman who can eat so much? Are you even a little self-conscious?
Wu Jing is going to get killed by this person. Are you starving to death or something? The man just came back, regardless if you can't hide your fat figure, you still have to pay attention to your image! Are you relying others not to abandon you?
If she were a man, she would definitely abandon this fat woman.
Wu Jing stepped hard on this person's foot under the table and Yu Shanshan cried out with pain with an "Ouch!" her tears almost came out.
Both Dudu and Yuan Long looked at her. Dudu asked doubtfully, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Did you bite your tongue?"
Dudu remembers he sometimes bites his tongue because the food was too good and delicious.
Yu Shanshan glanced at Wu Jing, forcing out a smile through the pain of her foot. She secretly glanced at Yuan Long then waved her hand and said, "Yes, Mom accidentally bit her tongue. It's all right."
Dudu earnestly educated his mother, "Mom, you eat slowly. No one is competing with you. Why are you so greedy?"
This is something that Yu Shanshan often teaches the little guy every time he chokes or bites his tongue. As a result, he learned to use it now. it's now his turn to reprimand his own mother.
Normally, Shanshan would definitely pull the fat man over and beat his ass. But at this time, because his own father is here, she still has scruples about being a loving mother and decides to let the fat man go this one time.
At this time, a WeChat message popped up on the mobile phone at hand. When Yu Shanshan saw it, it's from Wu Jing who is sitting right next to her. She glanced at her suspiciously and didn't know what's going on.
Wu Jing winked at her and gestured for her to read the message.
Yu Shanshan had to look down to see what she had sent her.
However, at a glance, she became so angry that she wanted to kill Wu Jing.
Wu Jing actually sent her a sentence: "You should eat less, don't eat so much like a rice barrel, be careful not to scare Dudu's Dad away."
Yu Shanshan: ! ! !
Why did the two of them told her off like that? She didn't eat too much! It's not scary!
And since when did she look like a rice barrel?
Yu Shanshan turned red with anger and flung down her chopsticks.
She should stop eating!
She's already full of anger. She doesn't want to eat anymore.
Seeing that she's finally willing to put down her chopsticks, Wu Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that Dudu's father had not discovered this rice bucket's real essence.
Yuan Long only glanced at Yu Shanshan and said nothing. He bowed his head and continued to eat his own food, taking care of Dudu.
Among the other three people in the audience, Dudu gave his mother face and asked, "Mom, aren't you going to eat?"
Yu Shanshan finally had a little comfort in her heart, at least her son still cared about her, he's not as heartless as his godmother.
Yu Shanshan pretended to be full, she touched her stomach and said, "Mom is full. I've eaten too much today. I'm about to burst."
"Oh ~" Dudu looked at his mother's stomach strangely and asked her looking puzzled: "Mom, you usually have to eat two bowls of rice before you're full. How can you be full now after just eating one bowl?"
Wu Jing: "......."
Yuan Long: "......."
Yu Shanshan: "......."
There was a sudden awkward silence at the scene.
"Pppfff---Hahahahahaha........" Wu Jing sprayed a mouthful of rice, and laughed so much that she couldn't get up on the table.
Yuan Long pursed his lips and bowed his head, He seemed to have no reaction, but his mouth turned up quietly.
Only Dudu is confused. Looking at this and that, he doesn't understand why his godmother's laugh is so exaggerated.
Did he said something funny?
Yu Shanshan looked faintly at the little fat man who unknowingly betrayed her. She's wholeheartedly thinking about a very meaningful yet scientific question: Why did the sperm that belonged to this little fat man beat hordes of troops and successfully entered her body and became her son?
It must be because she owed him a debt in their previous lives, so God sent him to her so she can pay it in this lifetime.
Finally, Wu Jing broke the embarrassment for fear that the little fat man would be killed. So she explained for Yu Shanshan: "Dudu, Mom is different now. Mom is losing weight. One bowl is enough."
Dudu suddenly realized, "Mom, you want to lose weight again. That means you can't get up at night to eat in secret. Godmother said that this can't reduce fat, right?"
The little fat man inadvertently exposed the secret that his mother gets up secretly at night to eat, while she was losing weight.
Wu Jing: I don't know if I should answer now. I feel that the little fat man will soon die tonight.
Yu Shanshan also felt that the fat man in her family was just a little overjoyed by her father's return and needed to clear his head.
Wu Jing secretly gave the little fat man a meaningful look.
Unfortunately, the little fat man didn't understand what this meant at all. He was very gratified to see that his mother really stopped moving her chopsticks. His mouth narrowed with laughter, like looking at a lost child. "Mom, you're so good that you can now lose weight without being beaten by a Godmother."
Yu Shanshan: ! ! !
Yu Shanshan felt that her whole heart is cold. Cold winds are blowing. She wants to shed tears.
Yu Shanshan stood up, silently moved her chair, left the table with her crutches and sat alone on the sofa, thinking about why she had given birth to a professional demolition expert.
Dudu blinked, looking at his mother's unhappy appearance, and a little guilt gushed out of his heart. He looked at his godmother at a loss, he didn't know whether to coax his mother or not.
However, the godmother waved her hand and gave him a big chicken wing. "Dudu, eat it."
It's better to fight when you're full.
Dudu also did not struggle, anyway, his mother would get better after being angry for a while, so he continued to eat his chicken wings happily.
Wow ~ it's delicious.
******
After the meal, Wu Jing was embarrassed to let Yuan Long cook and wash the dishes, so she took over the job of washing dishes and dragged Yu Shanshan into the kitchen to do the dishes, leaving Yuan Long outside to play with Dudu.
Yuan Long is very tall, but at the moment he is sitting on the carpet like Dudu, playing with him, neatly assembling the newly bought remote-controlled plane, looking indescribably serious.
Wu Jing turned to Shanshan with her elbow and quietly asked her, "Why did Dudu's father come here all of a sudden? I was startled when I saw him."
Yu Shanshan wanted to cry and said. "I was startled too. Dudu suddenly took him home. You don't know, I was wearing an old lady's nightgown at that time. My hair hadn't been combed for several days like a crazy woman, I had no image at all!"
Wu Jing patted her. "Why are you focused on that? The point is, why did he show up all of a sudden? I feel that he's not the kind of man who will leave his own flesh and blood behind. So what's going on in the middle? Why didn't he come to you until today? "
"Because..." Yu Shanshan faltered at talking about the truth she had not told Wu Jing. "He...he didn't know there's a Dudu."
"What?!"
Wu Jing's hand slipped and she almost dropped the bowl.
Yu Shanshan scratched his head and said guiltily, "He didn't know about the pregnancy. I didn't even know myself at the beginning. When I finally learned about it, I couldn't contact him. Oh, anyway, this matter was a bit complicated, it involved a lot of things. So I couldn't explain it at this moment. Please don't ask. I don't want to say it."
Wu Jing didn't force it either. "OK, I won't ask if you don't want to discuss it. Anyway, the most important thing is that he didn't leave you on purpose, so it makes sense. Soldiers can't do such things like abandoning their wives and children."
In the living room, Dudu is curiously asking on what his father does.
Yuan Long did not give him a perfunctory response just because he was young. Instead, he told him solemnly, "Dad is a soldier, I'm an uncle of the People's Liberation Army."
"Wow--" Dudu eyes lit up, "Dad you're a PLA uncle!"
Children all know that police uncles and PLA uncles are good people and worthy of respect. Teachers have taught them to find police uncles or PLA uncles if they have any difficulties.
So Dudu is particularly fond of the police and the PLA. So when he heard that his father is part of the People's Liberation Army, he became very excited.

The author has something to say: Dudu has since gone further and further down the road of professionally dismantling his mother's stage, ha!
饭桶 Fantong - I looked it up and it means good-for-nothing / fathead / rice bucket. Since Shanshan was contemplating about not looking like the physical thing, I used the rice bucket/barrel imagery.
