Xiao Jinhan went to help her with her suitcase.
Qiao Yanzhi led Tang Yaoyao to the sofa, sat down, and gently comforted her, holding her slightly cold little hand: "Mom believes in you."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yaoyao's heart skipped a beat.
It seems that Mom has already found out about this because of those unscrupulous reporters.
When she returned, she didn't ask anything, nor did she show any anger. Just three words brought tears to her eyes.
Her eyes were red-rimmed, and her voice choked with emotion for a moment: "Mom..."
Seeing this, Qiao Yanzhi let her lean against her chest and gently patted her back: "Silly girl, do you think I don't know what kind of child you are? If I don't believe you, who else in this world will believe you?"
Ms. Qiao is truly a very healing person.
She smiled sweetly, forcing back her tears, and nodded heavily: "Yes."
Afterwards, Tang Yaoyao asked softly, "Didn't you say you were going to be gone for a month? Why are you back so soon?"
Qiao Yanzhi said, "Your great-aunt is not in good health, so your uncle took her back first. I spent a day alone in the Buddhist hall and missed you all, so I came back early."
Hearing this, Tang Yaoyao said in a coquettish tone, "It's so good that Mom is back. I missed you too."
Qiao Yanzhi smiled after hearing this and gently kissed her daughter's forehead.
"How is your second brother now?"
Tang Yaoyao replied, "I'm recuperating in the hospital and it will probably be a while before I can be discharged."
"I'll go see him this afternoon."
"Um."
Then, Tang Yaoyao recounted the whole story to Qiao Yanzhi.
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yanzhi's expression gradually became serious.
"We don't know who the villains behind us are, so from now on, we must be careful in everything we do."
Tang Yaoyao nodded: "Mm."
Qiao Yanzhi looked at her charming face, held her hand tightly, and had a thousand words in her heart, but only said with concern, "I'll have Ziyi watch over you while you're working, Yao'er, you must take good care of yourself."
She could no longer bear the pain of losing the grapes a second time.
I don't want to, and I can't.
That would have cost her her life.
Tang Yaoyao smiled and curled her lips: "Mom, don't worry, I'll be fine."
"Um."
Tang Yaoyao then remembered her great-aunt and said enthusiastically, "Mom, great-aunt isn't well. Why don't we go and see her together?"
Hearing this, Qiao Yanzhi nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, I was just telling her about your return a couple of days ago. Your great-aunt was so happy that she cried and asked me to bring you over to see her."
"Mom, I feel that you and Auntie have a very good relationship."
Qiao Yanzhi's smile gradually softened: "Of course it was great. Back then, Mom and Dad were busy with their business. When we were little, your third aunt and I grew up at my aunt's house. She treated us like her own daughters."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yaoyao finally understood her mother's feelings for her great-aunt.
The debt of gratitude for giving birth and raising children is the most profound and meaningful bond in the world.
My great-aunt treated my mother like a daughter. Now that my great-aunt is old, my mother naturally wants to treat her well; this is filial piety.
As she spoke, Qiao Yanzhi's eyes gradually turned melancholy, and she sighed, "It's just a pity that your great-aunt was alone all her life, without a husband or children."
Tang Yaoyao was slightly taken aback: "How could that be? Didn't you just say you had a cousin?"
“That’s the child your great-aunt adopted.”
Tang Yaoyao then asked, "Is her cousin good to her?"
"Yes, just like your brothers do for me."
Hearing this, Tang Yaoyao was relieved: "Mom, let's go visit Auntie when Second Brother is feeling better. We've been talking about it, but it's been delayed."
"Okay, you get some rest first, I'll go to the hospital to see Cheng'er."
Tang Yaoyao nodded, then watched Qiao Yanzhi leave.
Watching her busy figure, I couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
There's no one better than a mother in the world.
This is absolutely true. When Mom came back, even though he was exhausted from all the running around, he first comforted her before going to visit my second brother.
Her heart was devoted to the children.
Perhaps it was hard work in her eyes, but in her mother's heart it was sweet and happy.
Suddenly, she also wanted to experience what it would be like to have a child.
Thinking this, she couldn't help but murmur, "Fourth Brother, I want a child too."
Xiao Jinhan's throat tightened. He looked at her and remembered what the doctor had said in the hospital last time.
She suffers from uterine coldness and took medication that damages the uterus early in the morning, making it very difficult for her to have children in her lifetime.
Unable to hear his voice, she turned to look at him, blinked, her eyes bright and alluring.
Xiao Jinhan walked over and picked her up: "Next time, don't use contraception."
His voice was warm and indulgent, and his warm breath brushed against her cheek, which was inexplicably captivating.
Tang Yaoyao wasn't shy at all, and said with a smile, "Okay."
"Get some rest, you didn't sleep well last night."
Tang Yaoyao nodded and said softly, "Mm."
Afterwards, Xiao Jinhan carried her to her bedroom, placed her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then got up to leave.
As she turned around, Tang Yaoyao grabbed his hand, blinked her foxy eyes, and said coquettishly, "Can you sleep with me?"
He couldn't refuse her.
Once on the bed, he pulled her into his arms and said, "Sleep."
Tang Yaoyao murmured, "Peace."
She grew accustomed to his embrace, his scent, and his warmth, and soon fell asleep.
This time, she had a beautiful dream.
It was Jinxian's wedding day. She was too naughty and secretly drank the wine that he and Yunluo had shared. She thought it tasted good and drank the whole pot.
Then he got drunk and started causing a ruckus in the bridal chamber.
Seeing this, Jin Xian felt helpless but couldn't bear to punish her, so he could only throw her into the ancestral hall to reflect on her mistakes.
Late at night, perhaps worried that she would feel too uncomfortable from being drunk, he personally brought her some hangover soup to drink.
"Yao'er, you're a fox, you're not allowed to touch this wine again next time."
She gulped down a bowl of hangover soup, blinked, and indicated that she understood what he meant.
Then, she nuzzled his calf with her head to urge him back to the bridal chamber. How could she leave the bride to sleep alone?
Jinxian picked her up and kissed her forehead: "I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I always feel like it was you who brought Yunluo to my side, Yao'er."
She grimaced, pretending not to hear.
Then, she jumped off his arms and watched him leave.
"Jinxian, I hope you will be happy throughout your life."
She murmured as she slowly woke up.
The sky was already bright.
She turned around and saw Xiao Jinhan's deep and handsome face. He seemed to have just woken up as well. He smiled and softly called out, "Brother Xiao~"
Because she had just woken up, her voice was soft and alluring.
Xiao Jinhan's Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he stared at her intently before finally asking the question.
"Sixteen, Jin Xian, who is that?"
