Wen Qiao felt that Yan Minghui's gaze was a little strange, as if she were examining an object.
Just now, she felt that Yan Minghui's enthusiasm for them was tinged with polite distance.
And while Huo Yan was very attentive to his three children, she kept telling him not to only be nice to his sister, but also to let his brother play with them, and to treat them equally.
But now, Yan Minghui is saying that Huo Yan should take better care of his younger sister.
Wen Qiao had originally planned that if the three children were too noisy for her to handle, she would leave with them after thanking Huo Yan's mother, Yan Minghui.
Unexpectedly, Yan Minghui arranged a table for the mother and her four children.
Huo Yan was asked to bring the grandsons of two other retired cadres from the same compound, who were also Huo Yan's classmates.
They ate together with Wen Qiao.
"Wen Qiao, my son A Yan may look young, but he is actually very sensible and good at taking care of others. You can rest assured that you can entrust the three little ones to my son A Yan's care."
Wen Qiao smiled politely.
"No need to trouble Ayan. Ayan is just a child herself. I have three children, but they are well-behaved and I can take care of them."
Just as Yan Minghui was about to leave, she saw Shen Jichuan, with one arm hanging from the doorway, walking towards her.
He nodded politely to Yan Minghui, his eyes fixed on his young wife inside the room.
Yan Minghui looked at Shen Jichuan and took the initiative to speak.
"Commander Shen, you're worried about the children. Your three children are all exceptionally well-behaved, especially the youngest one, I really like him."
"Commander Shen, don't worry. My son Ayan loves his younger siblings. I've told him to take good care of them."
Ayan?
That sickly Huo Yan, right?
Shen Jichuan had already inquired about Huo Dongqing's situation.
Although Huo Yan was the grandson of General Huo, Shen Jichuan looked down on him in the slightest.
The reason was that Huo Yan's father was sickly, and Huo Yan was also sickly.
Previously, she was so weak that doctors diagnosed her with the possibility of becoming childless.
There are two types of infertility: one is that the reproductive function is still present, but the quality of sperm and blood is poor, making it impossible to have children.
The other type is much worse, as it's bad both inside and out.
Not to mention being unable to have children, he's even physically unable to conceive.
To Shen Jichuan, boys like this were no different from girls.
However, being a man himself, he naturally wouldn't look down on Huo Yan; at most, he just wouldn't think much of him.
They might secretly think, "If any girl marries Huo Yan, wouldn't she be living a life of widowhood?"
Now, hearing Yan Minghui talk about how good his child was and how Huo Yan took good care of her child, Shen Jichuan wondered why his sister-in-law was telling him this.
But he still said, "Thank you very much, Huo Yan, for taking care of my little ones."
"Sister-in-law Huo, I'm going to check on my family first. I have to talk to you now."
Shen Jichuan walked quickly to Wen Qiao and looked at the children playing with the older boys.
Shen Jichuan asked her a few questions with concern, and only after learning that Wen Qiao had not suffered any grievances did he feel relieved.
“What grievances could I possibly suffer? Sister-in-law Huo is a very kind person. Not many people come to this room, but I did run into Li Meilan and her group. She brought a few people and spoke to me for a few minutes before finding a place to sit. Seeing that I had a child with me, it wasn’t convenient for me to squeeze in with them.”
Shen Jichuan gently squeezed Wen Qiao's palm to comfort her.
"I won't bring the kids next time."
"Did the three of them cause any trouble?"
