"younger brother……"
Zhou Jiao saw the little girl nod and point to the east wing, and pinched her little hand, "The brothers are asleep, let's go and have some milk, okay?"
"No, I just had a small bowl of noodles." Yi Shumin pointed to the west wing, "Mom will take you to play with your brothers, okay?"
"No...brother...I want some meat..."
Zhang Guoqing looked at the little girl who was still speaking incoherently with amusement, nodded and greeted Yi Shumin, then left for the west wing.
"Six-one-five-one fell asleep."
Zhou Jiao took the child and led them into the east wing. "It's okay, they're in the bedroom, let's go to the study. Yueyaer, wait until your brother wakes up so we can play together, okay?"
"Play."
"Okay, Auntie will give you some fruit."
"Wow, I want wow..."
Zhou Jiao didn't understand. She put the child on the kang and turned to look at the child's mother.
Yi Shumin laughed, "She was talking about dolls. My brothers are boys and don't play with dolls."
You know what, Zhou Jiao really has a doll. Yi Jiefang and the others love to play pranks. A few days ago, seeing that Wuyi looked more and more like Zhou Jiao, he jokingly gave her two dolls.
Zhou Jiao went into the inner room, took out a rag doll for the child, and coaxed her before pouring tea.
Sitting on the kang in the study, Yi Shumin looked at the two bedroom doors that had been opened up with envy. "You guys are really fast. You moved in as soon as you said you would."
"There's nothing we can do. They start howling loudly whenever they're not satisfied. My parents can't rest at night. Even when guests come during the day, there's no peace and quiet."
"That's good. It's convenient for Auntie to go in."
Zhou Jiao smiled and nodded.
Indeed, it was okay in the winter, but in the summer, it was inappropriate for Auntie to go in and out of the main room. She started her internship at the beginning of the new semester, so she didn't have to live in the school, and she had more time to spend with the children at night.
After chatting for a while, Yi Shumin glanced at her hesitantly and asked softly, "I heard that the Liang family sent you a basket of seafood the day before yesterday?"
"How can there be such an exaggerated basket? It's just a few yellow croakers and prawns. What? You want them? The prawns are sold out, but I can still give you one yellow croaker."
"No, we have more at home. I'm not talking about seafood."
Zhou Jiao knew what she meant, but she had no intention of discussing it with outsiders. Ever since Liang Jiajun was sent to the countryside, the Liang family had been practicing the rituals of a close family. Did her family really have to tear their relationship apart?
When the enemy comes, we must fight them; when the water comes, we must block it with earth. Isn't that how everyone plays it? Since the Liang family's backers are still there, what's the point of attacking a few small ones?
Zhou Jiao looked at her with amusement, "It's better if you don't, I don't have enough to share."
"What's going on between your two families? We thought that even if you didn't become enemies this time, you would at least stop communicating with each other."
Hearing this, Zhou Jiao was surprised. "How could it be? Liang Jiajun is Liang Jiajun, and the Liang family is the Liang family. Grandpa Liang has already come to our house and made it very clear. Where is the grudge?"
"This is just to fool the children, do you believe it?"
"What can I do if I don't believe you? I have to go around people when I can. The old man is already very old, it's not easy for him."
Yi Shumin thought of her father's words, smiled and shook her head, "Yes, if it were an ordinary family, they would have been investigated long ago. They are still powerful."
Zhou Jiao didn't respond to this. Seeing the little girl crawling out, she quickly went forward and picked her up. "Does our Yueya want to eat some fruit?"
Yi Shumin casually stuffed the frozen pear from the plate into the child's hand and said, "Aren't you worried about being looked down upon? Do people think your family is easy to bully?"
Zhou Jiao, who had her back to her, had a fierce glint in her eyes before she lowered her eyes and smiled, "So what do you think we should do?"
Yi Shumin was suddenly speechless.
Zhou Jiao put the child down and let her walk on the ground by herself. She glanced at Yi Shumin and sighed in her heart. It seems that this little sister is gone too!
Regardless of whether her provocations were motivated by the Yi or Fang families, or simply her own personal concerns, her desire to cause trouble had already made Zhou Jiao sick.
She hates it most when others plot against her.
She really didn't take the Liang family seriously, but she also didn't want her father to fight the people behind the Liang family to the death and let outsiders benefit.
Yi Shumin looked at her daughter and sighed, "Good people are often bullied, so we have to take action when necessary."
"Did you hear something? They're planning to attack my family again?"
Yi Shumin shook her head. "Not really. However, the third son of the Liang family got a promotion at the end of the year."
The third son of the Liang family?
Zhou Jiao finally understood why she had mentioned the Liang family. This woman was competing with the eldest daughter of the Fang family for a position in the Commercial Bureau. Was she trying to play a trick on her?
How could Zhou Jiao become a knife?
"You scared me! He just got promoted. I thought it was a big deal." Zhou Jiao changed the subject, "Is Brother Xiaofei busy lately?"
"Very busy."
Seeing that she was distracted, Zhou Jiao couldn't help but smile, "You're not so busy that you don't even have time to have a baby, are you? Didn't you say last time that you were trying to get pregnant? How's it going? Any news?"
Speaking of children, Yi Shumin frowned and touched her belly, "Do you want to see a doctor?"
"Okay, I'll take a look," Zhou Jiao agreed casually. Normally, she'd still be in the mood to take her pulse, but now, she was thankful her master had concealed his true identity.
Who could have guessed that the much-sought-after Doctor Hu was actually her master? As expected, one must always be cautious wherever they go.
Yi Shumin sat for a while, picked up the child and said goodbye to go home.
As she walked along, she kept thinking about her father's words. Could it be that Zhou Jiao was really so cunning? Just now, she had looked at Zhou Jiao and there was nothing unusual about her.
Before entering the house, Aunt Fang hurried forward to greet her, took the child in her hand, and looked at her niece-in-law eagerly, hoping to get some hope from her.
Yi Shumin shook her head slightly upon seeing this.
"Why? She..."
Yi Shumin quickly interrupted, "Aunt, let's go in and talk."
"That's fine. Your grandma is waiting for you in the house." Aunt Fang also wanted to know the details, so she walked quickly inside with the child in her arms. When she reached the living room, she handed the child to the aunt, then took her niece's hand and quickly went into the old lady's room.
After listening to her granddaughter-in-law's retelling, Old Lady Fang looked at her eldest daughter, who was about to speak, shook her head and said with a smile, "Give up! No one in this world is stupid!"
"mom?"
"It's no use calling me dad. Don't drag down your niece's wife. Some things should be said in a timely manner. If you say too much, these kids will lose their friendship."
Hearing this, Yi Shumin looked at the old lady thoughtfully, "Grandma, do you mean that Zhou Jiao has already noticed it?"
"Not necessarily." The old lady sighed inwardly after saying this. This child is still too angry. How could she say such words?
Yi Shumin suddenly made a bitter face, "It's over."
"What are you talking about? You sisters are just chatting."
"Mom, then you tell me to find..."
Yi Shumin glanced at the mother and daughter who were discussing this, then left the room. She returned to her bedroom and lay down for a while, then, still feeling uneasy, she took the child to the back to nurse.
As for how he was scolded by Yi Lao, there is no need to mention it.
The birth of the twins was a kind of pressure on Yi Shumin. It can only be said that once people become selfish and learn to compare with each other, the so-called good sisters are all fake.
