If Guo Mingli really wanted to speak nicely, she could be quite pleasing to the ear. Although Tang Xiaoxiao knew very well that what she cared about most was the baby in her belly, her words made it seem as if she put Guo Mingli's health first, which was at least very comforting to hear. As a mother-in-law, she was already quite good.
Mr. and Mrs. Tang, who were listening nearby, nodded in agreement.
Next, Guo Mingli gave her the same old advice and reminders. Tang Xiaoxiao, who had already been nagged by her mother the night before, was on the verge of tears. She couldn't interrupt her, so she could only listen with a sense of hopelessness.
Fortunately, Han Yunqi was perceptive and interrupted his mother's incessant chatter: "Mom, I'll take Xiaoxiao for a walk in the yard. Pregnant women should exercise more."
"Yes, yes, some exercise is good, but we must also be careful!" Guo Mingli quickly said.
Tang Xiaoxiao smiled at Guo Mingli, then got up and followed Han Yunqi out of the villa.
The young couple took a leisurely stroll around the yard before returning inside. Guo Mingli and Tang's mother chatted warmly, while Han Shiping and Tang's father sipped their tea and talked about men's topics, their attention no longer on Tang Xiaoxiao. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
This was the first time Han's parents had visited Tang Xiaoxiao's villa. After chatting for a while, Guo Mingli suggested they take a tour of the house. The two of them then led them around. Although the villa's decoration was conventional, it was still very different from ordinary apartments in the community. The couple looked around with great curiosity.
The Han family is in the building materials industry, so they have a good eye for quality. The house is filled with high-quality materials, many of which were originally ordered by Tang Xiaoxiao from the Han family's store and are quite valuable.
Just as the Han couple were praising the cats, Guo Mingli's expression immediately changed when she saw the group of cats on the third floor.
"How come there are so many cats? My God, is this a house for humans or for animals?!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaoxiao immediately stopped smiling.
Luckily, she knew her mother-in-law's nature. When she learned that they were coming, she told the cats not to run around and to stay on the third floor. This was because she knew that Guo Mingli didn't like small animals. In her previous life, Guo Mingli would nag her for wasting money when she fed the stray cats in the neighborhood.
It wasn't that she was afraid of Guo Mingli, but she felt that her parents were also there, and if she had any unpleasantness with Guo Mingli, it would be bad if it made her parents unhappy as well.
The cats all stayed quietly in their own space and played. A huge glass partition on the third floor separated them from the people, so they didn't bother each other at all. Even so, Guo Mingli could still find fault with them.
It's just a habit they've developed.
The elderly couple from the Tang family didn't come upstairs. Although Guo Mingli's shout was quite loud, the two downstairs didn't hear it.
Only Han's father, Han Yunqi, and Tang Xiaoxiao, who were beside her, heard it.
Although the elderly couple in the Tang family didn't hear it, Guo Mingli's behavior was still very impolite and disrespectful.
Tang Xiaoxiao sneered inwardly.
Indeed, it's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature.
Tiger Girl had just given birth, and she and Black Panther, along with the puppies, were sent into her space to recuperate. If they were there, upon hearing Guo Mingli's shout, Tiger Girl, with her fiery temper, would probably have pounced on them on the spot.
Although nothing serious will happen with her around, a scare is always inevitable.
Han's father frowned as soon as she blurted it out and scolded, "What are you saying! It's normal for everyone to keep a pet these days, what's the big deal!"
