Chapter 223: Fighting for Favor
Meng Yitong did not continue speaking, and the scene became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Father Qin, who already felt guilty, felt even more uneasy under such circumstances.
"Ahem, Yitong! Now I think what you said before is right. Xiuzhe's temper really needs to be controlled."
Meng Yitong, who had hoped to hear these words from Qin's father before, did not feel happy at all this time.
"I think it's good."
After Meng Yitong finished speaking, she stood up, obviously not wanting to continue the conversation.
When Qin's father saw Meng Yitong's action, he was a little stunned for a moment.
Although Meng Yitong didn't say much, anyone with a discerning eye could see her dissatisfaction from her attitude.
This is also the first time that Meng Yitong has behaved like this towards Qin's father since she married into the Qin family.
At this moment, let alone Father Qin, even Old Madam Qin and Old Man Qin beside him felt bad for him.
Father Qin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he knew that he couldn't say anything that would satisfy Meng Yitong.
After Meng Yitong stood up, she didn't look at Father Qin, but turned to Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin beside her and said, "I'll go see Xiuzhe. If he's asleep, we'll take him to the hospital for a checkup later."
As Meng Yitong spoke, she looked at her watch again and found that it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.
Meng Yitong immediately urged Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin, "It's already nine o'clock. It's getting late. You should go to bed. I'll bring Xiuzhe to see you tomorrow morning."
After Meng Yitong finished speaking, she tore off the large bath towel wrapped around her body, reached out to take the windbreaker handed to her by Aunt Li, and walked towards Qin Zhuoran while putting it on.
It was also at this time that everyone noticed a large dark water stain on Meng Yitong's originally light pink home clothes.
When Qin's father saw the water stains on Meng Yitong's clothes, he felt the coldness on his body as well.
The emotions that were already a little turbulent just now became even more turbulent at this moment.
At this time, Butler Zhou remembered that Qin's father's clothes were all wet.
Butler Zhou, feeling upset about his negligence in work, immediately called someone to pick up the clothes.
When Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin saw how embarrassed Qin's father looked, they tried their best and finally didn't say anything.
After they sighed at the same time, they left together.
They had no way to change Qin's father back then, and it is still the same today. Now they can only hope that he won't regret it one day.
Zhang Jingyi looked at Meng Yitong's back as she walked away and couldn't help but clench her hands.
She never dared to treat Qin's father like this. Not to mention her, even Qin Chengze didn't dare to give Qin's father the cold shoulder like this.
How enviable!
Zhang Jingyi was just thinking about it when she heard a sudden howling sound beside her ear.
At this time, Zhang Jingyi finally realized that she had been lost in thought and lost control of the strength in her hands, and she squeezed the child in her arms, making him cry.
The child's crying immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Seeing this, Zhang Jingyi immediately calmed down and started to coax the child.
Over the past year, Mrs. Qin has been very dissatisfied with her because she often goes out to film. Now if she sees the child crying in her arms, she will be even more dissatisfied!
Zhang Jingyi was just thinking about it when she heard a dissatisfied scolding from the side: "What's wrong with you? You can't even hold a child properly."
As Mrs. Qin spoke, she stepped forward and snatched the child from Zhang Jingyi's arms.
Zhang Jingyi looked at her empty hands and suddenly felt a little lost.
Although she gave birth to twins, she did not spend much time at home this year due to work. In addition, Mrs. Qin complained from time to time, so the two children were not close to her.
Just like now, the child whom she could not coax no matter what, soon calmed down in Mrs. Qin's arms.
Zhang Jingyi looked at the little guy who was lying on Madam Qin's shoulder, looking at her with wet eyes, and her heart couldn't help but ached.
But soon, Zhang Jingyi woke up immediately.
She is different from Meng Yitong. She has nothing in the Qin family now and she has to rely on herself.
As Zhang Jingyi thought about it, her eyes gradually became firmer.
On the other side, Meng Yitong finally found Qin Zhuoran who was coaxing the child in the corner of the hall.
At this moment, Qin Zhuoran was holding the child and rocking him gently.
Under the rolled-up sleeves of his shirt, Qin Zhuoran revealed his muscular arms. Only arms like these could hold a child weighing more than 30 kilograms horizontally for such a long time without feeling tired.
Meng Yitong just stood there and watched quietly. Qin Zhuoran didn't say anything when he saw Meng Yitong coming over.
Only after he was sure that the child in his arms had fallen into a deep sleep did Qin Zhuoran ask softly, "Is the matter resolved?"
He also heard some of the noise coming from the other side. In order not to disturb Xiuzhe's sleep, he could only carry the child and walk farther away.
Meng Yitong sighed softly when she heard this, but did not answer Qin Zhuoran's words. Instead, she said directly: "Let's go, let's take him to the hospital for a check-up now."
When Qin Zhuoran heard Meng Yitong's answer, he knew that Meng Yitong was very dissatisfied with the way Qin's father handled the matter.
Qin Zhuoran did not ask any more questions, but just glanced at Qin's father from a distance through the pillars of the hall.
As if he sensed something, Qin's father also looked over here at this moment.
The moment the father and son's eyes met, Qin's father sat up straight instantly.
Unfortunately, Qin Zhuoran just glanced at her from a distance, then immediately looked away and followed Meng Yitong out through the side door.
Father Qin looked at Qin Zhuoran's actions and for a moment, he became even more upset.
Mrs. Qin, who was sitting next to Qin's father and pulling him to play with the child, noticed that Qin's father was distracted. She followed his gaze and looked to the corner of the hall, but saw nothing.
"Honey, what are you looking at?"
Mrs. Qin was obviously in a very good mood at this moment.
Mrs. Qin, who had always thought that Father Qin favored the eldest grandson, suddenly discovered today that there was still a chance to win over Father Qin's heart.
Mrs. Qin thought about it and worked even harder.
"Changchang, didn't you learn a new ancient poem today? Come and recite it to grandpa."
"Ancient Moon Travel..."
Hearing his grandson's clear voice reciting, Father Qin's attention was immediately drawn to it.
"Yueyue, didn't you just learn a song today? Sing it to your grandpa too."
…
Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but feel happy when she saw her children were so smart.
Compared to Qin Xiuzhe's naughtiness, the twins she gave birth to can definitely be described as well-behaved and cute.
When children are young, the contrast may not be obvious.
However, as children grow older, the gap in personality and ability will become more and more obvious.
Zhang Jingyi believed that by then, Qin's father's preference would definitely shift, just like it was now.
At this moment, Zhang Jingyi suddenly felt a little gloating.
If Qin Xiuzhe hadn't fallen from the building, Qin's father might not have had the time and energy to focus on the twins today.
