Upon learning of Xie Yuan's past, Xie Chuancai and Zhang Yuefen also wanted to visit their grandson.
"Come on, Grandma's good grandson, open your mouth." From the moment they met, Zhang Yuefen kept feeding him, and Zuo Shan had lost count of how many times she had to endure it.
Seeing Zhang Yuefen test the temperature with her own mouth before feeding Xie Tianci the soup, she finally couldn't help but speak up and remind her, "Mom, this is not hygienic."
“What’s unhygienic about it? I’m not sick,” Zhang Yuefen retorted instinctively. “Look how happily Tianci is eating.”
Zuo Shan couldn't bear to look. Just then, Xie Chuancai seemed to have a phlegm stuck in his throat, coughing incessantly, which made her lose her appetite completely.
Honestly, whenever the two elders came over, she felt a bit sorry for Song Xia. After all, they only came to her occasionally, but Song Xia had to face them every day.
However, ever since Song Xia made the two elders move out, Song Xia has had some peace and quiet, but he himself is extremely annoyed.
She vowed that once Xie Yuan had complete control of the Song family and Xie Yuan and Song Xia divorced, she would definitely send the two elders back to their hometown. She would not be as foolish as Song Xia and live together like that.
These two have absolutely no self-awareness, and their living habits are terrible. You can't even say anything about it. Isn't living together just asking for trouble? She doesn't have the time to serve them.
"Grandpa, are you going to die?" Xie Tianci asked innocently because Xie Chuancai hadn't been able to cough up his phlegm.
The question caused a moment of silence at the dinner table. Zuo Shan almost burst out laughing; what a good son she had!
Xie Yuan spoke first: "Tianci, how can you say such things about Grandpa?"
Xie Tianci muttered impatiently, "That's how it's always portrayed on TV. People like Grandpa who cough like that always end up dying."
"What kind of trashy TV dramas do you usually show Tianci?" Zhang Yuefen frowned at Zuo Shan with dissatisfaction. "You're corrupting the child."
Xie Chuancai glared at him, then said kindly to Xie Tianci, "Grandpa won't die. Grandpa will wait to see our Tianci grow up, to see our Tianci get married and have children!"
"Then you're finished. People who say things like that are definitely not going to live long." Xie Tianci clapped his hands, looking gloating and completely lacking in tact.
Of course, he was only a little over three years old, so the adults would never blame him. They would only complain that Zuo Shan hadn't taught him well and had let Xie Tianci watch some random videos.
Even Xie Yuan said seriously, "I told you not to show Tianci those videos. He's too young to judge. Don't you have the same ability? This will harm him."
"Yes, Shanshan, Tianci is the eldest grandson of our Xie family. He is destined for great things and will inherit a group of companies. How can you let him ruin his eyesight and let these short videos interfere with his studies? You are being too careless."
Zhang Yuefen had already been very tactful; she could have been even more harsh with Song Xia in the past.
But since giving birth to Xie Tianci, Zuo Shan had never been raised like this before. Yet, she could only endure it for the time being.
What could she say? That her son just wants to play on his phone and won't eat if he doesn't? If he doesn't eat, and the family notices he's thinner next time, they'll have something to say about him again.
"I'll definitely be more careful in the future, Brother Yuan. I'm sorry, it was my oversight. I thought that since the nanny and the housekeeper were paid such high salaries, they would teach me carefully. Maybe they just took advantage of my absence to make things easier." She would never admit it and could only shift the blame to others.
“I am Tianci’s biological mother. No one loves him more than me. Brother Yuan, I will definitely handle this matter well.”
“Outsiders are unreliable.” Zhang Yuefen believed her without a doubt, after all, she really didn’t believe that Zuo Shan would be perfunctory, since Zuo Shan had achieved everything she had today thanks to Tianci.
“Song Xia is just unreasonable. She insists on having two outsiders at home. She’ll regret it later.”
Regret? Zuo Shan understands all too well what it feels like to have someone take care of a child. Song Xia definitely won't regret it, okay? You can only play with a child occasionally. Who could stand having someone take care of them all the time?
She had barely finished her sigh when Zhang Yuefen immediately said to Xie Tianci, "Now that Grandma has time, Grandma will come and keep you company whenever she's free, okay?"
Zuo Shan's heart was in her throat, fearing that Xie Yuan would agree. She didn't want to share a room with Zhang Yuefen, especially since Zhang Yuefen had come so often. Would Xie Chuancai not come along?
She looked at Xie Yuan for help, but Xie Yuan nodded in agreement: "Mom, it's good that you come to take care of Tianci. Outsiders are just people who get paid. Do you think I don't know what their attitude is? How many of the employees in the company are responsible? It's okay for ordinary employees to slack off, but if a nanny is negligent, it will ruin Tianci's life. Shanshan, don't you think so?"
"Uh...yes." Zuo Shan nodded with a forced smile. "It's so great to have Mom help me."
After she finished speaking, she rolled her eyes and said, "But if Mom comes here, what about Song Xia and Lingling? There has to be someone or something there to keep Song Xia from going to the company, otherwise, Yuan-ge, it will be inconvenient for you to do things."
“That little brat is not as important as Tianci. She’s not worth the trouble. I’ll feed her some mutton one day, and then Song Xia won’t be able to do anything.”
"Song Xia should be very careful about what she eats normally, right? Besides, she's hired two people to help take care of her now." Zuo Shan was still making excuses, trying to get Zhang Yuefen to go over there and not come over.
Zhang Yuefen said confidently, "I'm the child's grandmother. I'm uneducated, and all I know is that I want what's best for the child. Once Song Xia is gone, I, as the grandmother, will make some food to nourish the child. Do those two dare to stop me?"
"Didn't you miscalculate last time?"
Recalling the last time, Zhang Yuefen's face darkened: "Last time was an accident, there won't be a next time. I'll make those two meddlesome people leave sooner or later."
"Don't worry, we have a plan for this, it won't interfere with Mom taking care of Tianci." Xie Yuan ended the topic, leaving Zuo Shan with no way to refuse.
She was extremely agitated. Was her comfortable life about to come to an end?
"Come on, let's go out and play." After feeding him, Zhang Yuefen was about to take Xie Tianci downstairs. "If you go out and play more, Tianci won't think about his phone anymore."
Zuo Shan sneered, "Go out to play? Can you even keep up with the stamina? And when Tianci is pestering and arguing, are you really willing to give in?"
"Oh, the whole family out for a walk?" The auntie who ran into Zhang Yuefen downstairs said, "Your family is so lucky. Your son is successful, your daughter-in-law is virtuous, and your grandson is so smart. You two are living a life of luxury!"
Zhang Yuefen was flattered and nodded in agreement: "Of course, our family is not something that anyone can compare to."
"The young couple are a perfect match, they look so loving. I bet you'll have another grandson soon."
"Really? That's good."
Zhang Yuefen smiled smugly, completely unaware that her conversation with her neighbor had been recorded on video, which was strong evidence that Xie Yuan had committed bigamy.
