Jiang Qiaoqiao lived a glorious life, only to be killed by her own mother and adopted daughter on her fortieth birthday. Her three brothers helped dismember and bury her remains.
When she ope...
"No need, honey, you just rest well. I'll make some formula for this brat."
Huo Beixiao frantically tried to prepare formula for the baby.
Yang Qiaoqiao found it both infuriating and hilarious.
Just then, the eldest daughter, who had been sleeping peacefully in her crib, was also woken up and started crying in her baby voice.
Huo Beixiao was still mixing formula in his hand, and he quickly comforted his daughter, "Sweetie, don't cry, don't cry, Daddy's here..."
As she spoke, she quickly picked up her daughter and carefully fed her the freshly prepared formula.
On the other side, his son, whose face was red from crying, was put back in the crib by his father, who didn't even give him a second glance.
The little girl woke up hungry and was now drinking milk powder in big gulps. The way she puffed out her little cheeks and sucked hard was especially cute, melting Huo Beixiao's heart.
He completely ignored his son's cries and showed his daughter to Yang Qiaoqiao, saying, "Wife, look how much our daughter looks like you, how well-behaved and cute she is."
He stopped crying as soon as he drank the milk, unlike that brat... that brat..."
Huo Beixiao finally came to his senses and remembered that he had a son.
Yang Qiaoqiao looked at the man helplessly, "Finally remembered? Give me your daughter!"
"Hehe..." Huo Beixiao chuckled awkwardly, but he couldn't bear to give his sweet and soft daughter to Yang Qiaoqiao.
Just then, Lin Xiaohui returned from shopping.
Lin Xiaohui entered the room and heard the child crying. She quickly put her things down. "Oh dear, why is the child crying like this?"
Lin Xiaohui picked up the child with heartache and checked on the child's condition, while she couldn't help but complain, "Bei Xiao, didn't you say you could take care of two children by yourself? Why don't you even try to comfort the child who's crying like this?"
"The baby hasn't pooped or peed, it must be hungry," Lin Xiaohui said, and then told Yang Qiaoqiao to lie down and breastfeed the baby.
After Yang Qiaoqiao lay down on her side, Lin Xiaohui placed the child next to her.
The little guy's fluffy head, which looked like a tiny taro, sniffed the aroma, nudged twice, and then accurately found the spot, taking it in its mouth and sucking on it greedily.
Lin Xiaohui looked on with a face full of satisfaction, "Oh my, Grandma's eldest grandson is so smart, he knows how to find food so well."
As soon as Lin Xiaohui finished speaking, the little guy refused to eat anymore, pouted, and started crying again.
Lin Xiaohui was also stunned for a moment, "What's wrong? What's wrong with my eldest grandson?"
They checked the child again, but found nothing that might be making the child uncomfortable.
Huo Beixiao held his daughter, who was still obediently drinking milk, with the gentle affection of a loving father. "I knew this brat was naughty. My daughter is much better, isn't she, my sweet girl?"
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
She was speechless. Was it really okay for Huo Beixiao, a father, to have such double standards?
But now is not the time to lecture a man.
She asked Lin Xiaohui, "Mom, does the baby not want to drink my milk and want to drink formula? Can you mix some formula for the baby to try?"
"Yes, yes." Lin Xiaohui slapped her forehead and quickly went to mix the milk powder.
After preparing the formula, Lin Xiaohui picked up her younger brother to drink the milk, and he immediately drank it in big gulps without crying or fussing.
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
Unexpectedly, the child was actually fussing because he didn't want to drink breast milk.
However, since this is her first time being a mother in both her lives, she still wants to breastfeed her child herself.
Let Huo Beixiao bring his sister over to try.
Although Huo Beixiao was reluctant to part with his sweet and soft little daughter, he could not disobey his wife.
He quickly placed his daughter next to his wife.
Unexpectedly, the older sister was even more resistant to breastfeeding than the younger brother. The little girl not only refused to open her mouth, but also used all her strength to keep her mouth tightly closed.
Yang Qiaoqiao: ...
Alright!
Her son and daughter are just trying to ease her burden as an elderly mother, so she's happy to relax and not insist on anything.
Even though they still owe the bank some loans, they can still afford to buy milk powder for their two kids.
After the two children finished eating, they fell into a sweet sleep again.
Lin Xiaohui then spoke up, "Beixiao, Qiaoqiao, have you decided on names for the two kids yet?"
Before Huo Beixiao and Yang Qiaoqiao could answer, there was a knock on the door.
You could hear the cautiousness in the knocking.
Yang Qiaoqiao guessed it was Luo Yingzi.
In the past few months, her belly has grown bigger, and she has difficulty moving around. She hasn't been back to Yun County much, and she hasn't been to Yiren Clothing Store at all.
But she knew that Luo Yingzi had been helping out at the store for free for the past few months.
She had thought it over. Although Luo Yingzi had abandoned her under those circumstances, she had given her the punishment she deserved over the past few months.
If Luo Yingzi comes, she will make things clear to her. If she can keep public and private matters separate in the future and not bring personal emotions into her work, then she intends to continue using her.
Although Yiren Clothing Store has already hired two more suitable employees, the mall will open in another month, and she still needs more talent.
Huo Beixiao went to open the door.
Unexpectedly, besides Luo Yingzi and Xu Yizhou, there was another person outside the door that Yang Qiaoqiao didn't expect.
"Brother Huo, sister-in-law, congratulations on the arrival of your precious son and daughter." Xu Yizhou entered the door beaming with joy, making it seem as if he had become a father himself.
Luo Yingzi took out two pure gold longevity locks and put them on the child's wrist.
Upon seeing this scene, Huo Nanfeng, who had followed Luo Yingzi and Xu Yizhou in, stood with his feet together somewhat awkwardly and hid his hands behind his back.
Yang Qiaoqiao smiled and gestured for Huo Nanfeng to sit down.
She spoke with Luo Yingzi for a while first.
After exchanging pleasantries, she asked Luo Yingzi directly, "Yingzi, do you know why I was so angry with you last time?"
Luo Yingzi lowered her head. "I know I shouldn't have brought my personal emotions into my work, and I shouldn't have just quit."
Looking at Luo Yingzi's sincere expression, Yang Qiaoqiao knew that she had truly realized her mistake.
"If I need you to come back to work, would you be willing?"
Luo Yingzi looked up at Yang Qiaoqiao with instant surprise, "Sister Qiaoqiao, you're willing to continue using me?"
Yang Qiaoqiao nodded. "As long as you realize your mistakes and are willing to correct them, I am not only willing to continue using you, but I also plan to have you come to the provincial capital to help me manage the new store that will be opening in the mall soon."
Although Luo Yingzi acted on emotion last time, her sales ability is beyond doubt.
"Sister Qiao, don't worry, as long as you're willing to give me a chance, I'll definitely work hard and won't let you down a second time," Luo Yingzi immediately assured her.
After Luo Yingzi and Xu Yizhou left.
Yang Qiaoqiao then looked gently at Huo Nanfeng and waved to him, "Nanfeng, you're sitting so far away, can you see your little nephew and niece clearly?"
Huo Nanfeng immediately stood up awkwardly and walked towards the crib.
He reached out to touch the two little ones' fair and tender faces.
But as soon as he stretched out his hand, he immediately withdrew it, feeling a little embarrassed.
