Because of the adorable Feng Shimeng, Feng Haidong's three older cousins have so much to do.
For two or three consecutive days, my second cousin rushed to Feng Haidong's shop as soon as she got off work.
My third cousin sometimes has to work shifts at the hospital, so she can't come to the store every day.
However, my third cousin's daughter, Yue Rujuan, seemed to have become the embodiment of her mother, coming directly to her uncle's shop every day after school.
These days, Lu Wanling is mostly unable to help with anything except when feeding her daughter.
Changing diapers, dressing, and washing her daughter were all done by Feng Haidong's three cousins themselves.
Sometimes, the three older cousins would even argue about who did more.
Feng Haidong and Lu Wanling were truly at a loss for words, finding it both funny and exasperating.
However, the couple could tell that the three older cousins really liked their youngest daughter.
It's a genuine affection that means she'll take very good care of her daughter.
That evening, Lu Wanling took her child back to her third cousin's house.
When Liu Fenlin, the third cousin, got home from get off work in the evening, the first thing she did was to check on the little girl, Feng Shimeng.
Looking at the little girl, Liu Fenlin couldn't help but say to Lu Wanling, "Wanling, why don't you stay in the provincial capital with the little girl and Haidong? Haidong is going to rent a place in the provincial capital anyway, so you two can find a nice one-bedroom apartment to rent together."
When Lu Wanling heard her third cousin say that, she had similar thoughts in her mind.
But then I thought about how I still have work at home, and more importantly, my son is still studying at home.
In Lu Wanling's mind, although her youngest daughter is very important, her son is equally important.
As a mother, Lu Wanling doesn't want her son to blame her in the future, saying that she stopped loving him after she had a younger sister.
So Lu Wanling said to her third cousin, "Third cousin, I can't stay in the provincial capital for the time being. On the one hand, I still have a job at home. My company's liquor market is doing quite well right now, and I don't want to quit my job. That would put too much pressure on Haidong."
Another point is that Fanfan will still need to attend school at home for the time being. If Haidong and I both stay in the provincial capital, Fanfan might lack supervision while staying at home with his grandparents, which could cause his grades and other aspects of his life to decline. He might even blame Haidong and me for not spending enough time with him later.
Liu Fenlin nodded and said, "That's right. Since your company is doing so well now, you really can't give up your job there. Also, Fanfan is still in school, and it's really not good to leave him alone at home."
After saying that, Liu Fenlin teased the little girl on the bed and couldn't help but say with regret, "Oh, this little girl is so cute. My eldest sister, second sister, and I all love her very much."
Lu Wanling smiled and said, "Yes, Haidong and I know that the three aunts are very good to our Mengmeng and they all like her very much. So I took a week off so that Mengmeng could stay in the provincial capital with her three aunts for a while longer."
Liu Fenlin said, "Then when you go back home, you must bring Mengmeng to the provincial capital to play during your holidays."
Lu Wanling said, "I will definitely come. As long as I am off work and Fanfan is not in school, I will bring both of my children with me. I'm just afraid that if too many of us come, the aunts won't think it's a good idea."
Liu Fenlin said, "How could that be? The aunts like Mengmeng and her brother to come."
Lu Wanling laughed and said, "Haha, if the aunties like Mengmeng and her brother to come, then we'll come often in the future. It's a pity that Dad doesn't have a car now. When Dad gets a car in the future, we'll have him pick us up every weekend."
Liu Fenlin said, "That's right, we'll have Haidong buy a car so he can pick you up on weekends."
Lu Wanling said, "I can also drive you there to play, or drive you to see your uncle."
Thinking of this, Liu Fenlin suddenly said to her husband, "Old Yue, why don't you learn to drive too? When we buy a car, we can go out and have fun whenever we want."
Upon hearing his wife's words, Yue Kang couldn't help but laugh and say, "Why are you always so impulsive? What kind of ability do we have? How could we afford a car?"
At this moment, Yue Rujuan, who had finished her homework, suddenly came out and said, "Dad, every family will have a car in the future. Dad, you should learn to drive in advance so that you can plan ahead."
Upon hearing his daughter's words, Yue Kang said, "You silly girl, you use idioms quite well when you say things like this. I've never seen you so capable when you write essays."
Yue Rujuan pouted and said, "Dad, why are you like this? I was just giving you some advice."
At this point, Yue Rujuan looked at her mother and said, "And it was my mother who said it first."
Liu Fenlin saw her daughter come out and asked, "Have you finished your homework?"
Yue Rujuan came over with a grin, reached out and held the little girl's hand on the bed, saying, "Of course you've finished writing."
Seeing how well Yue Rujuan treated her daughter, Lu Wanling smiled and asked, "Rujuan, has our staying here affected your homework and studying?"
Yue Rujuan said, "It won't affect anything. Auntie, I'm so happy that you guys can come. I feel like I can do my homework really fast now, really."
Upon hearing her daughter's words, Liu Fenlin couldn't help but reach out and gently tap her daughter's forehead.
"You silly girl, you've picked up your dad's ways and started talking nonsense."
Yue Rujuan stuck out her tongue at her mother.
Lu Wanling smiled and said, "Rujuan is as smart as my brother-in-law. I hope our Mengmeng will be as beautiful and smart as Rujuan in the future. That would be great."
Liu Fenlin said, "That's for sure. Mengmeng is already very pretty now, and she'll definitely be very pretty when she grows up. Plus, her dad is so smart and capable, so Mengmeng will definitely be smart too."
Yue Rujuan said, "That's right. I think that although Mengmeng can't speak yet, she seems to understand what we say. Look at her beautiful big eyes, they're always sparkling, and she always smiles at people. She's so cute and pretty."
Liu Fenlin said to her daughter, "From now on, you, as the older sister, must take good care of your younger sister."
Yue Rujuan said, "No problem, I will definitely take good care of my sister."
Lu Wanling said with a smile, "With Sister Rujuan taking care of her, our Mengmeng will definitely have a very happy childhood."
Feng Shimeng lay in bed, watching her mother, aunt, and sister talk. The little girl seemed very happy and enjoyed listening to others talk next to her. She waved her little hands happily, and her face was full of smiles.
Feng Haidong and Lu Wanling felt as if it was because of the little girl Feng Shimeng.
The relationship between the three older cousins in the provincial capital also became better and closer all of a sudden.
This was probably something that Feng Haidong and Lu Wanling had never imagined before bringing their daughter to the provincial capital.
Lu Wanling took her daughter to stay in the provincial capital for a week and finally got her daughter's household registration sorted out. In the end, her daughter was registered under her older cousin's and her cousin's husband's household registration book.
Feng Haidong jokingly said, "Neither my mother nor I have settled in the provincial capital, but our Mengmeng has settled there first."
