Chapter 180 The Twins' Hundred-Day Banquet
Time passed quickly, and when Meng Yitong saw Zhang Jingyi again, it was more than a month later.
It was already autumn at this time, and Zhang Jingyi was walking in the yard wearing a fluffy home clothes.
Zhang Jingyi's face looked a little pale, perhaps because she had not fully recovered yet.
Seeing Meng Yitong, Zhang Jingyi forced a smile, then quickly looked away, turned around, and left with the child in her arms.
Meng Yitong was surprised when she saw this.
In the past, Zhang Jingyi would come over to me and make her presence known every time she saw me. Why is she like this now?
But Meng Yitong didn't think much about it. After all, although she and Zhang Jingyi lived under the same roof, they didn't have much contact now.
As long as Zhang Jingyi doesn't come over to cause trouble, Meng Yitong can completely ignore this person's existence.
More than two months later, Qin's father once again held a hundred-day banquet for his child at the Qin family.
Because of the precedent set last time, many of the decorations and arrangements this time are the same as last time.
Although Qin's father did not intend to hold a big wedding this time, there were more guests present because of the twins.
Zhang Jingyi looked at the crowded hall and finally smiled for the first time in some time.
Mrs. Qin was also very happy. This might be the most proud moment for her in all the years since she married into the Qin family, except for the time when Chengze was born.
After Qin's father finished his opening remarks, Zhang Jingyi and Mrs. Qin went on stage holding the twins, a boy and a girl.
Looking at the envious eyes of the people below the stage, Mrs. Qin became even happier.
Zhang Jingyi also followed Madam Qin to get to know all the ladies who came to attend the banquet today.
This was the first time Zhang Jingyi had encountered such an occasion since she married into the Qin family.
In the past, Zhang Jingyi might have been overjoyed, but now, Zhang Jingyi looked down at her waist and abdomen that were still not retracted, and then looked at the group of glamorous ladies in front of her, and she couldn't smile at all.
She had once fantasized that one day she would be able to gather together with the ladies and daughters of these wealthy families, but she also imagined herself to be so glamorous, not like herself now.
Even wearing fancy clothes, he couldn't hide the bloated body underneath.
When Zhang Jingyi thought of this, she couldn't help but start to regret it again.
She shouldn't have listened to Mrs. Qin in the first place.
Why did she give birth to these two children?
Why does she force herself to eat so much every day for these two children?
If it weren't for these two children, she would still be the slender and beautiful self she once was.
However, Mrs. Qin would not know the troubles in Zhang Jingyi's heart.
At this moment, Mrs. Qin was beaming with glory as she introduced the differences between the twins to several other ladies.
"The one with a rounder face is the older brother. He was also a little bigger when he was born, weighing 15 pounds and 2 ounces! This weight is almost catching up with the weight of the single baby!"
Hearing this, the other ladies also echoed, "This weight is really good. It's not easy for twins to reach this weight."
"Yes! It took a lot of thought, but all the hard work is worth it."
As Mrs. Qin spoke, she hugged the child again and smiled with relief on her face.
The other ladies standing nearby were so envious of Mrs. Qin's appearance that their eyes turned red.
In a large family like theirs, the number of children often determines the amount of property that can be distributed within the family.
Except for those extremely rare chosen ones, most ladies still hope that their own branch of the family can flourish.
After all, they cannot decide the quality of their children, but they can achieve the number of children if they try hard.
Giving birth to two children at once not only ensures the number of children, but also brings good luck. Which lady would not like this?
Surrounded by the ladies, Mrs. Qin also found the long-lost feeling.
Ever since Meng Yitong married into the Qin family, her status in the wives' circle has gradually declined.
After Meng Yitong took over the Qin Foundation, her position as the center of the ladies' circle was completely shaken.
Now she really misses the feeling of being surrounded by a group of people.
Different from the bustle downstairs, Meng Yitong was currently teaching Qin Xiuzhe to read upstairs.
"Bean!" Qin Xiuzhe stretched out his chubby little hand, pointed at the word on the current literacy card, and said in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"That's right! Great!" Meng Yitong happily hugged Xiao Xiuzhe and kissed him, then turned to the next literacy card.
Little Xiuzhe is now one year old, and Qin's father just held a grand Sunday banquet for him some time ago.
Thinking of the guests downstairs who had come to Qin's manor twice within a month, Meng Yitong couldn't help but feel sympathy.
The gifts between these wealthy families are always very valuable.
These people have to send gifts twice within a month, and they also have to balance the value of the gifts. Meng Yitong feels upset for them just thinking about it.
When Qin Zhuoran came back, he saw the mother and son lying together, learning to read.
Xiuzhe can now speak some simple words.
Early childhood teachers also took advantage of the budding stage of his language skills to begin teaching him languages of various countries.
Seeing that the one-year-old Xiuzhe had started to learn eight languages, Meng Yitong couldn't help but worry for him.
Meng Yitong is worried that Xiuzhe will have language confusion in the future, so she tutors Xiuzhe in Chinese whenever she has free time.
In addition, because people around him speak Chinese on a daily basis, Xiuzhe has learned Chinese the best.
But Qin's father may be worried that Meng Yitong's teaching method will disrupt the child's language balance.
During this period, whenever Meng Yitong was not around, Qin's father would communicate with Xiuzhe in other languages.
The two seemed to be competing secretly.
Because Qin's father usually spends more time with his children, Xiuzhe has been vaguely showing signs of being taken over by Qin's father during this period of time.
In order to win Xiuzhe back, Meng Yitong took a day off today, as Qin's father was busy, and taught the child Chinese alone.
After studying for a whole day, Xiuzhe was a little tired, but when he saw his father coming back, he immediately rushed over happily.
“Dad! Dad!”
Xiuzhe shouted, "Don't rush over to Qin Zhuoran" with his short legs.
Seeing this, Qin Zhuoran quickly stepped forward and picked up Xiuzhe.
As soon as Xiuzhe was in his father's arms, he buried his little face in Qin Zhuoran's shoulder and never looked back at his mother.
When Meng Yitong saw Xiuzhe's expression, she immediately said unhappily, "You heartless little bastard, your mother played with you for nothing today. Humph!"
After Meng Yitong finished speaking, she put on an angry expression.
Xiuzhe secretly looked up at his mother from his father's neck and found that his mother seemed really angry. He immediately rushed over with a smile and wanted to give her a kiss.
When Meng Yitong saw his flattering look, she immediately avoided him with disgust.
She didn't want Xiuzhe to spit on her face.
As if he could see Meng Yitong's fear, Xiu Zhe smiled and pounced towards Meng Yitong.
Qin Zhuoran, who was afraid that his son would fall, could only hold Qin Xiuzhe and chase in the direction of Meng Yitong.
Seeing this, Meng Yitong ran faster, and Qin Xiuzhe laughed even more happily.
