Bai Ling's eyes twitched slightly, and then she lowered her eyebrows and said, "Mom, you know our family situation. Jiang Yang supports six of us by himself! Jiang Yang and I can't afford anything that's too expensive, and we're afraid that my sister-in-law won't like anything that's too cheap. Who knew that time would pass so quickly? Before I could decide what to buy, my sister-in-law and her family came."

"You! How come you are becoming more and more confused day by day!" Qin Ying felt really sorry for her eldest daughter-in-law who had always been by her side and caring for her. She had just suffered a serious illness some time ago, so it was normal for her mind to be stuck for a while.

Bai Ling just lowered her head and said nothing. Qin Ying scolded her in a low voice, but in the end he paid for it himself and asked Bai Ling to pay for the meeting gift.

The family had a happy meal together. At the dinner table, the two-year-old baby wanted to stay in Ji Wanqing's arms after being held by her. Even her own mother couldn't hold him.

Jiang Che was helping to hold the child beside them. At first glance, I really thought they were a young couple and their family of three!

Qin Ying was so happy to see this scene that her face was smiling. However, they had just gotten married and were not even one couple yet. She was also a daughter-in-law before, so naturally she would not mention anything about urging the couple to have a baby. The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite warm.

Except for Bai Ling's occasional questions.

"I heard from my mother that the house that my father-in-law prepared for me is nearby?"

Ji Wanqing held Xiaobao in her arms and fed him steamed eggs. The two-year-old child didn't cry or make a fuss. He ate whatever was fed to him, and his little mouth was bulging with food. He was so adorable!

"Um."

Seeing her sister-in-law's perfunctory answer, Bai Ling lowered her head and felt sorry for herself, "My father-in-law is really good to my sister-in-law. Unlike my family, who came from the countryside and only brought two quilts when I got married."

“……”Such familiar tea talk.

Ji Wanqing couldn't help but glance at Jiang Che.

Is this what you call a softer character than the eldest brother? Can't she even recognize the obvious green tea girl's hidden agenda? If I had known that the eldest sister-in-law was like this, she would never have wasted money preparing a gift for her.

Jiang Che sat next to Ji Wanqing, so he could hear the conversation between the two sisters-in-law.

He was also puzzled. His sister-in-law always spoke in a soft voice before, and was as quiet as a mouse seeing a cat when she saw a stranger. She had been married for more than three years before she spoke to him alone. Why was she acting so strangely today?

Even though he lowered his head and spoke in a low voice, his words made people feel uncomfortable.

"Everyone has their own destiny. There's nothing we can do about it." Ji Wanqing had a gentle smile on his face, but the hidden meaning in his words made Bai Ling extremely unbearable.

What?

Is that not her fate?

Bai Ling pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly, "I see that my sister-in-law likes Xiaobao very much, and Xiaobao also likes to stick to my sister-in-law."

"Yeah." Ji Wanqing fed Xiaobao another spoonful of egg custard and didn't respond.

Bai Ling really wanted Ji Wanqing to hold the baby like this, or even just take him home forever. A two-year-old child is very troublesome to sleep at night, and she couldn't let him sleep with his older brothers and sisters.

Last time, the child's blanket fell off and she didn't cover it again in time. She was sick for three days and had to go to the hospital for an IV. As a result, she was scolded by a group of people at home.

But Ji Wanqing didn't respond. As a mother, Bai Ling couldn't possibly say such a thing herself, so the conversation between the two gradually came to a halt.

After dinner, several children gathered around Ji Wanqing and played.

She took a handful of candy and let them be themselves.

"My name is Jiang Jun, I'm 7 years old now, and I want to be a general on the battlefield like my grandfather!"

"You have great ambition!" Ji Wanqing gave Jiang Jun a handful.

"My name is Jiang Wan, and I'm 6 years old." The second girl glanced at her brother and told the truth, "Auntie, I don't know what I want to do in the future."

"Then you will have unlimited possibilities, great!" Give her a handful of candy as well.

"I'm Jiang Ning, I'm a teenager." The youngest girl's eyes rolled around as she leaned close to Ji Wanqing. "My beautiful aunt, my brother is Jiang Kuan, and he stutters. Can I help him to introduce himself?"

Ji Wanqing chuckled, "You little rascal, you came here for the two candies!"

Children are good at reading the signs and following the instructions. Seeing that the third aunt was not angry, Jiang Ning acted coquettishly, "Can I, my beautiful third aunt?"

"Sure." Ji Wanqing generously gave two handfuls, "However, if there is a kind and lovely child willing to give some to her brothers and sisters, Auntie will like her more."

“……”Bad sir!

Jiang Ning hesitantly divided one of the candies into three and gave them to his older brother and sister. Jiang Kuan was too young to eat candy, so Ji Wanqing quietly took a grinder from the supermarket for him to play with, and took it back before leaving.

However, Jiang Kuan was too timid. He sat in Ji Wanqing's arms without crying or making a fuss. When his mother came to hug him, he showed some resistance for no reason.

Seeing Ji Wanqing looking at her with a suspicious look, Bai Ling hurriedly patted the child's back soothingly. Jiang Kuan quickly relaxed and stayed quietly in his mother's arms.

It was getting late, so Qin Ying asked the young couple to go back and rest early. They had just got off the train today, so they needed to have a good rest.

Ji Wanqing said goodbye to several nephews and nieces affectionately. They were reluctant to see him off and refused to leave.

After thinking for a while, Ji Wanqing squatted down and called Jiang Ning, who had the most quick mind, over and asked, "Did your mother have a serious illness some time ago?"

When Jiang Ning heard this, he lowered his head and said sadly, "Yes."

Obviously, she was her mother's favorite child before, but if she coaxed her a few more words, she would turn around and stuff the delicious food into her mouth.

But now, mom’s favorite child is the eldest brother. No matter how she acts coquettishly and tries to please others, she would rather give the gifts to the eldest brother first and then to the younger brother.

After listening to the little girl's accusation, Ji Wanqing did not ask any more questions. He rubbed Jiang Ning's head and agreed to meet again tomorrow. Then he stood up and slowly walked home with Jiang Che.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Che put his arms around Qingqing's shoulders to shield her from the night wind.

"It's OK."

Traveling through time? Rebirth? Soul taking over?

But she herself is an outsider, so even if someone has doubts about this matter, it is not her place to speak out.

Jiang family.

Bai Ling helped her mother-in-law clean up the kitchen. She was so tired that she could not help complaining after returning to her room with her husband, "Mom is so nice to my third brother and his wife. She doesn't even ask her to wash the dishes."

Jiang Yang was slightly surprised, then patiently comforted his wife, "Today is the first time that my third brother's wife has come to visit us, and my third brother and his wife don't live at home. They finally came back, so of course mother didn't want her to wash the dishes."

Looking at her gentle husband, Bai Ling quickly calmed down and said, "I was thinking too much. I just recovered from a serious illness recently, and I am weak, so I tend to think too much."

"You have a weak spleen and tend to think too much. I'll buy you some dried tangerine peel later to soak in water and drink."

"Hmm!" Bai Ling's face was shy as she leaned her head gently on her husband. When she turned her head to the side, she saw Xiaobao sitting on the bed, and a hint of disgust flashed in her eyes.

It was obviously her elder sister who should have met Jiang Yang first, but she was blinded by the bastard Wang De and gave away such a good husband to her twin sister!
