Her second uncle knew that Nie Zhao's son was coming today, but who would have thought that Boss Nie's son would be dressed like this?
He assumed the child was from his sister-in-law's family and had been called over to play with other children.
Among the children in the family, the youngest one naturally benefits the most. Also, Minmin has a boyish personality, fierce and often makes her mother's liver hurt, but her grandfather and uncles love her the most.
He placed his briefcase on the console table, took out a handkerchief to wipe his niece's sweat, and first praised her, "You look beautiful today."
Seeing that A Yuan's forehead was also covered in sweat, he wiped it for him. Turning back to greet his sister-in-law, they exchanged a glance and he knew that the old man was very angry today. Seeing the nanny carrying a hot towel, the second brother wiped his hands and asked in a low voice, "Where are the guests from Hong Kong?"
Actually, they weren't far apart; Chen Rou and Secretary An were both in the living room.
Xiao Zhang led him into the living room and said to Chen Rou with a smile, "Let me introduce you, this is my Minmin's second uncle."
The other person shook hands with Chen Rou, but looked around and was about to ask a question when his sister-in-law smiled and picked up A Yuan, who had also followed into the living room, and said, "Second brother, you're looking for him, aren't you? Look, he's been playing with Minmin all afternoon. The two of them get along really well."
Minmin shook her second uncle's hand and asked, "Can he stay today? I want to play with him again."
She shook her head vigorously again: "Second Uncle, let him be my younger brother, he's so cute!"
Although A-Yuan couldn't understand, his ten teeth were all showing when he smiled, making him an adorable walking character.
The second son then realized that the person he had seen upon entering was Nie Zhao's son.
He took two steps back and examined him more closely, then smiled and said to Chen Rou, "He looks a lot like his father, he's a handsome young man, but what do you Hong Kong people say again, 'pretty boy'?"
He also wanted to compliment A Yuan's clothes, saying that the young man looked quite dashing in his shirt and dress.
However, upon hearing a cough from the study, he immediately said to Chen Rou, "Excuse me, let's talk downstairs."
Xiao Zhang smiled and said to Chen Rou, "I've prepared some refreshments for the children, you should have some too."
The two of them took the child into the restaurant together. Cha Ran found that the nanny had prepared snacks, as well as instant soy milk, lotus root starch, milk powder, and sweet almond powder, which should be special items, because Chen Rou had never seen them before.
Chen Rou picked out a sweet almond powder, not knowing if it would be the same as the almond milk in the future, but she decided to give it a try.
Xiao Zhang personally helped her pour hot water, smiling as he looked at his daughter: "My little rascal is spoiled rotten by her grandfather."
He prepared the soup and handed it to Chen Rou, then made himself a bowl of the same soup, saying, "A bunch of boys my age in our compound get beaten up by her every day and cry their eyes out. I'm constantly apologizing to people everywhere."
Actually, this little girl is very cute. Her mother was talking to her while making funny faces to amuse A Yuan, which made A Yuan giggle.
She turned around and said, "They can't afford to play, and they always cheat. Look how good your brother is; he doesn't cheat."
Suddenly remembering something, she asked Chen Rou, "Auntie, can you leave my little brother here so I can play with him for a couple of days?"
Chen Rou could tell that this little girl was just like A Yuan, the apple of her family's eye, and only her mother could control her. Sure enough, before Chen Rou could say anything, her mother glared at her, and the little girl quickly shut up.
Suddenly, a loud crash came from the direction of the study. Xiao Zhang immediately got up, but said, "Mrs. Nie, please eat with the two children first. I'll go to the kitchen to check on dinner."
Actually, she heard arguing in the study and went to check on things to prevent any accidents.
Xiao Minmin was simply tired of being confined to doing homework all the time. In addition, most boys wouldn't obey girls, and any boy over three years old who could run wouldn't team up with her. Those under three weren't as smart and agile as A Yuan. She liked A Yuan, this little soldier, too much, so as soon as her mother left, she asked Chen Rou, "Can I keep him here to play for two days?"
A-Yuan was holding a baby bottle, gulping down his formula, and looking at his mother.
He couldn't understand the language, but he could guess that he wanted to play too.
Chen Rou smiled and said to the girl, "He's still too young and needs an adult to stay with him at night. If he stays at your house, it will be too hard on your mother, so it's not possible. But I'll take him to the Military Museum another day..."
The little girl immediately said, "The day after tomorrow, Saturday, we get out of school in the afternoon!"
Kids, all they care about is playing.
Chen Rou added, "When the holidays come, you can come to Hong Kong with your mother and stay at my house."
The little girl didn't hold back: "Okay!"
Chen Rou really likes this little girl because she is the kind of child who is naturally very energetic. Because of her energy, she is quick to learn and also quite combative. If A Yuan had a big sister like this, she would probably tear the house apart. But for him, having a big sister like this to guide him can help him develop his courage and intelligence.
It's a pity they're too far apart, otherwise she would have let A Yuan play with this girl more.
You can see the main entrance from the restaurant, and what she initially guessed was that the person who might be on Wang Meng's side would be the old leader's secretary, which was also the position where it was easiest to open the floodgates.
Former leaders would have secretaries appointed by the government to write their memoirs and for other social obligations. As long as the secretary had a good relationship with the former leader, it was normal for them to earn a small fee by helping him get a deputy post or something similar.
So Zhang sent his secretary away earlier because he didn't want the other party to hear too much about the precautions.
However, it was clear that Wang Meng's line was not only quite long, but he was also confident because a middle-aged woman hurriedly entered the foyer and went to the living room a while later.
