Seeing Jiang Hua so heartbroken, Jiang Kefan knew she must be thinking of her younger brother or sister who had died unexpectedly. (Please search on Baidu.)
He knew that his mother must be heartbroken when she lost her child, but life goes on, and she couldn't dwell on sadness forever. So he comforted Jiang Hua, saying, "Mom, it's okay. You still have me, don't you? Look at me, I'm healthy and strong. One me is enough for you. If you want another child, you can have another one, right? Anyway, you and your baby are still young."
When Jiang Hua heard Jiang Kefan say this, she felt that it made sense. If a child is lost, another can be born. Why dwell on the pain?
Even though she thought that way, a trace of sadness still lingered in her heart. But she pretended to have let it go, pinched Jiang Kefan's nose playfully, and said, "You little rascal!"
When Jiang Kefan saw Jiang Hua pinching her nose, he felt that he was losing face in front of Ye Younan and that Ye Younan would laugh at him, so he immediately reached out and slapped Jiang Hua's hand away.
Jiang Hua was a little puzzled, so she asked, "What's wrong?"
He blushed slightly, unconsciously pinched his nose, and said, "This nose is originally like yours. What if you pinch it and flatten it? Besides, I'm all grown up now. Pinching my nose is like a child's behavior."
Jiang Hua immediately understood the meaning behind Jiang Kefan's drawing, realizing that kids these days are all so clever and concerned about their image. For such a young child to understand things like not wanting to lose face in front of female classmates—it seemed she really couldn't keep up with children's thinking!
Ye Younan had already understood most of the situation from the conversation between Jiang Kefan and Jiang Hua. Because of her arrival, Jiang Kefan's mother was reminded of her lost child.
After all, Jiang Kefan's mother only thought of this because of him. Although Jiang Kefan's mother seemed very happy, there was still a hint of weariness in her brows.
Why not try to help Jiang Kefan's mother relax? Guzheng! Ye Younan suddenly realized that she could forget all her troubles whenever she played the guzheng, so she could play it for Jiang Kefan's mother.
So Ye Younan spoke up and asked, "Auntie, do you have a guzheng at home?"
This puzzled Jiang Hua. Why did Ye Younan suddenly want the guzheng?
Although Jiang Hua had some doubts, she still nodded truthfully.
Upon hearing that Ye Younan was going to play the guzheng, Jiang Kefan immediately perked up and excitedly told Jiang Hua, "Mom, Ye Younan plays the guzheng so beautifully! She's at level eight in guzheng, and she often participates in competitions and wins awards."
Ye Younan blushed a little at Jiang Kefan's words and hurriedly explained, "No, no. These are just small competitions. I was just lucky, I just had a good opportunity. If it were a large competition, I definitely wouldn't know how I would have failed."
Jiang Hua smiled at Ye Younan and told Jiang Kefan, "You entertain Ye Younan for me first. Mom, go upstairs to find Qin. If you bully Ye Younan while I'm not here, you'll be sorry!"
"Okay, okay," Jiang Kefan quickly replied perfunctorily.
I really don't know if I'm their biological child.
Seeing Jiang Kefan and his mother like this, Ye Younan couldn't help but feel extremely envious.
After Jiang Hua found the zither, she took it down and set it up on its stand. Ye Younan sat in the chair and played the music with great care. The music was melodious and beautiful, as if it could make one forget all their troubles.
Now, Jiang Hua finally understands why Ye Younan played the piano for her; it turns out this child is so thoughtful.
Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and the piano music was interrupted. Jiang Hua, who was engrossed in the music, was then brought back to her senses.
When Jiang Hua saw Ye Qingqing and Hu Haoran standing at the door, she immediately rolled her eyes at them and then teased Ye Qingqing, saying, "You're here again! You're always eating and drinking here for free, and you don't even know how to pick up my kids or anything."
Ye Qingqing immediately retorted to Jiang Hua's words, saying, "I would like to, but my husband Hu Haoran won't allow it, right?"
As she spoke, she nestled close to Hu Haoran, displaying an intimate attitude.
Seeing the two of them like this, Jiang Hua felt it was a bit inappropriate for children. So she cleared her throat and said, "You two should be careful, there's a child with you."
Only then did Ye Qingqing notice the two children, and her face immediately turned red. She tried to change the subject, and upon seeing Ye Younan sitting at the piano, she immediately asked, "Were you playing the piano just now?"
Ye Younan nodded shyly.
"That's great, it sounds really good." Ye Qingqing praised Ye Younan with a smile.
Ye Qingqing took a great liking to Ye Younan when she met him, especially after learning that he could play the guzheng and played it so beautifully. She liked him even more.
He nudged Hu Haoran next to him and said, "Look how cute that kid is. He can play the guzheng, and he plays it so well. His parents are so envious."
Hu Haoran knew that Ye Qingqing had always wanted a child, but had been delayed by various matters. It seemed that having a child could be put on the agenda soon.
He quietly walked up to Ye Qingqing, whispered in her ear, "Don't envy her parents. When we get home, we'll have one right away. Hmm?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingqing's face instantly turned bright red, like a ripe tomato. She quickly slapped Hu Haoran's arm and said sweetly, "You're so annoying!"
She ran downstairs and ran around the house in a chaotic frenzy, scratching the sofa, coffee table, dining table... leaving no spot untouched. Finally, she managed to tear the sofa to pieces. She sat obediently beside the damaged sofa, head bowed, as if she knew she had done something wrong.
Jiang Kefan was furious when he saw that he had scratched the sofa. He said angrily, "Look at you! You ran around everywhere and scratched the sofa! What are you going to do now that the sofa is broken!"
The poor thing let out a pitiful whimper.
Seeing Jiang Kefan's fierce expression, Ye Younan shielded him behind her and said, "He was probably too happy to see you back, so he ran around and accidentally scratched the sofa. He didn't do it on purpose, so why are you yelling at him?"
Hearing Ye Younan say that, Jiang Kefan didn't know what to say.
As if understanding Ye Younan's words, it slowly jumped off the sofa, walked to Jiang Kefan's feet, and affectionately rubbed against Jiang Kefan's leg. Then it sat down obediently, staring at Jiang Kefan with its watery eyes, and occasionally scratching Jiang Kefan's leg with its paws, wanting Jiang Kefan to hug it and forgive it.
