Chapter 6 The Old Man and Woman Return
Little Peach Blossom almost jumped for joy!
She loves sweet potatoes so much! Ever since she took her first bite yesterday, she's been craving a second. If her parents hadn't said that eating too many sweet potatoes isn't good for her, Xiao Taohua would want to eat them every day! At every meal!
But she's a good girl, she listens to her parents!
"Daddy, Daddy, is this for Little Peach Blossom?" Little Peach Blossom looked at her father expectantly, but her eyes followed Lin Guangsheng's movements.
Yin Qing couldn't stand it anymore. She glared at the other person and snatched the sweet potato from their hand: "Sweetie, Mom will peel it for you before you eat it."
"Okay, Little Peach Blossom will wait patiently!" Then she looked at Lin Guangsheng: "Thank you, Daddy, for roasting sweet potatoes for Little Peach Blossom. You've worked so hard." Then she looked at Yin Qing: "Thank you, Mommy, for peeling sweet potatoes for Little Peach Blossom too. You are the best parents in the world!"
Yin Qing's eyes instantly reddened: "Our little peach blossom is also the best daughter in the world."
Lin Guangsheng chimed in, "Yes, Little Peach Blossom is the best."
Little Peach Blossom chuckled happily: "We are all the best."
"Here, be careful, it's hot." Yin Qing handed the sweet potato to her daughter before turning to Lin Guangsheng: "Where did you get this sweet potato?"
She knew exactly what was in the house; these sweet potatoes probably didn't come from there.
"The waiter's."
"Their family?" Yin Qing frowned.
"Don't worry, Xiao Er is already working hard, and it's just a little sweet potato. It's not like we'll do anything. It's just simple neighborly interaction."
"I'm also afraid that Xiao Er's family will get clingy." You see, Lin Xiao Er's family is notorious in Xiaolin Village for being a persistent nuisance; once they're on, they're impossible to get rid of. Before, Lin Xiao Er didn't do any honest work, but his family didn't care; they just praised him all the time. The villagers aren't blind; they've lived here for so many years, everyone knows their family well. They all know what kind of person Lin Xiao Er is.
They say they've been working hard, and things have looked good for the past six months, but I'm afraid they won't be able to keep it up for long.
“They don’t have the guts,” Lin Guangsheng said.
"Anyway, it's always better to be careful."
"Yes, I will be more careful in the future." I must listen to my wife.
"poor!"
Lin Guangsheng also chuckled, mimicking Xiao Taohua.
Little Peach Blossom wasn't paying any attention to what her parents were saying; she was completely immersed in the sweet aroma of the sweet potatoes.
Seeing Xiao Taohua like this, Yin Qing and his wife couldn't help but shake their heads. This girl really had a carefree attitude. It was good that way; she was content with what she had and didn't have so many worries.
"Your parents are probably coming back soon. Let me tell you, you're in charge of your own parents. Don't say anything nasty in front of Xiao Taohua, or I won't tolerate it!"
When Yin Qing first married into the family, she was a gentle daughter-in-law for a while. However, she did too well and some people took advantage of her. Later, she simply broke off all pretense of civility, and the old couple didn't dare to do anything anymore.
Evil people need other evil people to teach them a lesson!
"Don't worry, they can't control me." Lin Guangsheng is now supporting his parents out of a sense of responsibility, but he hasn't forgotten how his parents treated him back then.
Everyone outside praises their family for their harmony, but in doing so, they seem to have forgotten what kind of life Lin Guangsheng experienced as a child.
Lin Guangsheng couldn't help but frown when he thought of those days from his childhood, and even now that he's grown up, he still feels a pang of resentment. But they are his parents, and not being blindly filial is already his biggest concession.
"Daddy, eat! It's sweet, it'll make you happy!"
His gloomy mood was broken when Lin Guangsheng smiled and looked at his daughter: "Daddy won't eat it, I'll save it for Little Peach Blossom."
Little Peach Blossom blinked her eyes: "But Daddy isn't happy."
Lin Guangsheng was taken aback for a moment: "Dad is happy when he sees the little peach blossoms."
Little Peach Blossom tilted her head: "Really?"
Lin Guangsheng nodded firmly: "Really!" Those days are over. What he wants now is the present and the future, for his family to live happily every day!
Yin Qing couldn't help but pat her husband on the shoulder: "Next time, don't show your bad attitude to our daughter."
"Don't worry, it won't happen again." Little did I know my daughter was so sensitive.
As if he had thought of something, Lin Guangsheng held back; he absolutely couldn't be angry in front of his daughter.
He just guessed that his daughter's sensitivity might be due to something she experienced in her family of origin.
However, his daughter has already forgotten, and he doesn't want to mention it. In the future, he and his wife will make Xiao Taohua even happier and let go of all the sensitivities that are buried deep in her heart.
"It's so good to have a child," Yin Qing couldn't help but sigh as she looked at Xiao Taohua.
"That would require a child as good as Little Peach Blossom."
The couple looked at each other and smiled.
Indeed, other children may not be as fortunate as Xiao Taohua.
The moment they saw the child, they felt an instant and deep affection for him; he was the one who should be their child.
When you feel close to someone, everything seems good to you.
If someone had been adopted randomly or something, things might not be like this now.
The couple is extremely content with their current life.
Speak of the devil, and he appears! Just as they were talking about Lin Guangsheng's parents, the old lady's booming voice came from outside the courtyard gate: "Yes, my daughter gave birth to a son, and he's so chubby, seven pounds and three ounces! Yes, her youngest son's family is doing well, yes, yes, they're all doing great. Haha, what's there to envy? It's all because the children are hardworking. Yes, they won't be going over before the New Year, they'll just stay home, it's so cold outside. Haha, we'll talk about it another time, we'll talk about it another time."
The courtyard gate was pushed open from the outside, and the chaotic noise became even more pronounced.
Little Peach Blossom curiously craned her neck to look, but Yin Qing patted her head and said, "Little Peach Blossom, eat your sweet potato obediently. Daddy and Mommy will go outside and take a look."
Even though she knew everyone was smart enough not to do anything outwardly, Yin Qing was still worried about her daughter.
Every family cherishes its own child; there's no need to let Little Peach Blossom go along and be seen as a monkey by everyone.
"Okay! Little Peach Blossom, be good. Little Peach Blossom will wait for Daddy and Mommy in the house."
"So good."
Yin Qing gave her husband a look, and the two got up and left the room.
As for Little Peach Blossom, she started munching on sweet potatoes again.
No matter what happens, I have my parents. It's so great to have parents.
This is Xiao Taohua; other 300-year-old demons wouldn't be so carefree. However, she was raised by Grandpa Ginseng from a young age. Not only was she protected, but she was also raised to be innocent and naive, seemingly no different from a three-year-old human child. Of course, the protection of Heavenly Father was also part of it.
Those who have never seen darkness will never know that darkness exists.
Besides, she doesn't have to go through those things.
In the courtyard, an elderly couple was unloading things with several children. These were all the filial gifts from their youngest son and daughter. The old man's face was beaming as he carried the loads back. The children gathered around the loads, watching expectantly as their grandparents unloaded them.
