Ya Ya began to read aloud in her childish voice: "At birth, people are inherently good. Their natures are similar, but their habits differ. If they are not taught, their natures will change. The way to teach is to focus on one thing at a time..."
The pronunciation of each word was very accurate, and the recitation was very fluent.
Ruan Qingling realized that since Song Shiting's accident, she had paid much less attention to Ya Ya.
Moreover, Ya Ya has received far less love from her father than before, which is why she was so resistant when she met Song Shiting recently. Children's hearts are very sensitive and fragile.
Ruan Qingling reminded herself that she needed to build a good relationship with Ya Ya.
She clapped her hands and said, "Our Yaya is getting better and better. She reads very well. Mom is so proud of you."
Ya Ya chuckled. For a child, receiving affirmation from their parents is the greatest motivation.
Ya Ya said, "Mom, I can also recite Tang poems."
Ruan Qingling asked, "What Tang poems can Ya Ya recite?"
"I can recite 'Ode to the Goose'."
Ruan Qingling asked, "Oh, does Ya Ya know who wrote 'Ode to the Goose'?"
Ya Ya nodded and said, "Ode to the Goose was written by Luo Binwang of the Tang Dynasty... Goose, goose, goose, with its curved neck singing to the sky, white feathers floating on green water, red webbed feet paddling through clear waves."
Ruan Qingling clapped her hands and said, "Ya Ya is great! Ya Ya is so great, what should Daddy reward her with?"
Ya Ya said, "Let Daddy reward him for being a good dad. Daddy, please never leave us again, and never abandon me and my younger brother and sister again."
This little guy, even at a time like this, still remembers to say such things, which shows that he hurt her deeply some time ago.
Ruan Qingling reached out and hugged her.
Song Shiting quickly said, "Ya Ya is not the same weight as before, so be careful."
He gently picked up Ya Ya and placed her on Ruan Qingling's lap.
Ruan Qingling gently patted Ya Ya's shoulder, her forehead touching Ya Ya's, and said, "Our Ya Ya is so well-behaved. Mom is so happy to have such an excellent and wonderful daughter. You will definitely be a good role model for your younger sister and brother."
Ya Ya laughed happily.
Mom and Dad didn't abandon her because of her three identical younger siblings. Yaya is still their most adorable and well-behaved eldest daughter.
This made her happy.
Ruan Qingling said, "No matter what, you are Dad and Mom's eldest daughter, and the eldest sister of your younger sister and brother. We are a family, and we are all one family."
Ya Ya nodded, her face beaming with joy and satisfaction.
Later, Song Shiting coaxed his daughter out, then turned back to look at Ruan Qingling with a deep gaze.
Ruan Qingling saw through the man's thoughts and said directly, "Song Shiting, I haven't eaten your cooking in a long time."
Song Shiting immediately asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it right now."
Ruan Qingling thought for a moment and said, "Make a spicy and sour fish, a sweet fermented eggplant, and preferably a Mapo tofu as well."
Song Shiting frowned slightly and asked, "Isn't this flavor a bit too strong?"
Ruan Qingling shook her head and said, "No, I really did fast for nine months when I was pregnant."
Song Shiting knew that Ruan Qingling had gone through a very difficult time from pregnancy to childbirth.
So at this time, he will definitely satisfy her desire to eat whatever she wants.
Suppressing the restlessness rising in his heart, he stood up and said, "I'll do it now."
When Song Shiting arrived in the kitchen, he immediately put on an apron and busied himself in the kitchen.
Upon seeing him, Lin Yufang immediately said, "What are you going to do? I'll do it."
Song Shiting said, "No need, I'll cook some delicious food for my wife myself."
Lin Yufang felt inexplicably choked up.
Although she had never taken care of her son before, she now looked forward to him cooking her a meal, but her son was now taking care of his own wife.
Seeing Lin Yufang still standing by the door, Song Shiting said, "Mom, I'm sorry, A-Ling was pregnant with several children all by herself for my sake, and the delivery was so difficult. It's only right that I cook a meal for her. If you want to eat, ask your husband to make it."
Lin Yufang: "..."
People say raising children is for old age security, but she raised someone else's child, so she'll have to worry about her old age.
Now we can only rely on our grandchildren who can't even babble yet.
Lin Yufang turned and walked out of the kitchen. She didn't quite understand what her son had just said, but she couldn't accept it either.
Song Shiting didn't cook much, just enough for Ruan Qingling to eat. The two of them would eat in their room today.
So I told Song Ji.
If her son-in-law is willing to treat her daughter well and make her happy, what more could Song Ji ask for? She could only go along with them.
The three children were hungry again, so Ruan Qingling got up to make them milk powder.
My breast milk isn't very good; although it feels quite large to the touch, there's really not enough milk.
Not enough for three children to share.
And these three siblings are quite strange; when one of them eats, the other two whine and insist on eating at the same time.
Otherwise she would make a fuss, so she had to breastfeed in batches each time.
This time it's given to the eldest, next time to the second eldest, and so on.
If the older child drinks breast milk, the other two can only drink cow's milk.
After this arrangement was made, the three children stopped crying and making a fuss about it!
Song Shiting brought in all the food.
Ruan Qingling exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, Mr. Song's cooking is now perfect in color, aroma, and taste!"
Song Shiting smiled slightly and said, "It's been a long time since I cooked for you. With a little effort, I can make a delicious and visually appealing meal."
Ruan Qingling asked, "So Mr. Song never put his heart into cooking before?"
Song Shiting said, "Of course not, it's just that we see each other very little and spend too little time together."
Hearing him say that, Ruan Qingling seemed to feel a little emotional.
They really don't get to spend enough time together. She's busy, he's busy, they're both very busy.
There will be four more children in the future!
While eating, Ruan Qingling discussed the education of their four children with Song Shiting.
Song Shiting said, "Regarding their studies, don't force them. If they want to study, then let them study hard. If they don't want to study, then just send them to the army to train them."
This was a very simple thing for him.
It's like children will grow up on their own without you having to take care of them!
Ruan Qingling stared straight at him.
Song Shiting felt awkward under her gaze and asked, "Did I say something wrong just now?"
Ruan Qingling said, "Is this something a father should say? No matter what, our child must finish university."
Song Shiting didn't take it to heart and said, "Don't be so attached to these things. As long as the child is happy and can develop their talents, that's all that matters."
Ruan Qingling didn't want to argue with Song Shiting, and said, "You need to know that since the resumption of the college entrance examination, the country has been paying more and more attention to college students. Don't you think it's necessary for them to study and get a diploma?"
Although she didn't believe that studying was a guarantee of a good life.
However, as the trend continues, diplomas and academic qualifications will still occupy a large part of a person's life for the next few decades.
Ruan Qingling couldn't explain things clearly to Song Shiting right now, so she said, "The children will definitely go to university."
