Both girls were quite satisfied with the meal; neither of them was petty.
Yang Lijun was composed, while Zou Haiyin was lively and adorable. They quickly became good friends with Xiao Wu and the other two.
After dinner, the three of them stayed for tea. Gu Chuanming found it quite amusing to listen to the children chattering away.
After they said goodbye and left, she said, "Hongmei, our family is really short of girls."
Zhang Hongmei laughed, "Who says otherwise? I just love little cotton-padded jackets. My only hope in this life is to have a granddaughter."
Xiao Wu snuggled up to his mother. This mother was so much better than before; the child had been traumatized.
"Mom, I really like these two older sisters."
Zhang Hongmei hugged her fifth son and asked, "Little Fifth, why do you like them?"
"Sister Yang takes good care of us and has a good temper, and Sister Haiyin plays with us."
Zhang Hongmei kissed her son's cheek and asked, "Xiao Liu, Xiao Qi, what do you two think?"
"Mom, I think the same way as Fifth Brother."
"Me too, Mom."
"Okay, since all three of you like them, that's good. You can go and play with them tomorrow."
The three children immediately cheered, knowing they could go out and play.
“Hongmei, let’s introduce Haiyin to the fourth brother. We should also find the second and third brothers as soon as possible.”
“Grandpa, neither of them will have any objections.” Zhang Hongmei knew that the old man was afraid that his second son would be unhappy.
"Yes, we need to hurry."
This time, it was Xiao Li who arranged for someone to investigate Zou Haiyin's situation. This must be thoroughly investigated.
Zhang Shouyi wanted to embrace his wife as before, but Zhang Hongmei refused.
"I just don't know what kind of girls Dad and Grandpa will find for the three of us. Hehe, Lijun and Haiyin are both pretty, but they're not as pretty as the three of us." Zhang Hongmei thought of this and found it quite funny.
Zhang Shouyi felt a little uneasy, but he was already very satisfied that his wife was willing to chat with him now. He had to take it one step at a time and couldn't rush things. He had to let his wife figure it out herself.
"Yes, it's a bit difficult for an average child to grow up to be like our third son."
"Wife, why don't you throw a party, inviting not only politicians but also the ladies and young women from prominent families?"
Zhang Hongmei thought about it and agreed. She didn't like these kinds of gatherings, but for her son's sake, it would be good for him to meet more girls. That way, he would have many more options.
"Alright, I'll have Wang Ying organize a charity gala in the newly built building. Let's set it for next week."
Thinking of this, Zhang Hongmei immediately got out of bed, put on her bathrobe, and went to the study to make a phone call.
Wang Ying was taken aback when she received the call, but after hearing Zhang Hongmei's words, she realized it was really possible.
“Hongmei, there are more boys in our family, so we should let her meet more girls and make our mark early. Okay, I’ll start making arrangements tomorrow. Let’s invite them in your name; that way, it’ll be more effective.”
"Okay, that's settled. We'll all be there that day, and we can take our time choosing. We can report similar gatherings every month from now on."
"Okay, I'll give you a report tomorrow. If possible, we can get things done the day after tomorrow. Although this is a bit urgent, we should be able to make it in time."
The two discussed some more details, and Zhang Hongmei finally hung up the phone, satisfied.
Zhang Shouyi had been sitting on the bed waiting for his wife. When he saw Zhang Hongmei come in smiling, he quickly lifted the covers to make it easier for his wife to get into bed.
Later, when he got emotional, Zhang Shouyi kept muttering, "Wife, don't be cold to me, I can't take it, I'm scared."
Zhang Hongmei knew the matter was over, and she shouldn't have acted that way; the relationship between husband and wife shouldn't have been like that. But she just couldn't get over that hurdle in her heart. It felt like a barrier had formed between them, and she knew it was truly her problem.
I also felt sorry for my man; he'd been incredibly cautious lately, and I'd really spoiled myself into becoming a perfectionist. That wasn't a good thing. So I channeled my emotions to cooperate with him.
This flattered Zhang Shouyi, making him incredibly excited. He was relieved that his wife had changed even a little, and he was confident he could slowly win her heart back.
The next day, after practicing their skills, the three children sat down to eat. "Mom, we're going to go play with our two older sisters today."
Zhang Hongmei smiled and nodded, "Go ahead."
After the three children finished eating, they greeted the elders in the family, and Chengzi took them there.
Yang Yongjian was practicing Tai Chi in the courtyard when he saw the three young masters enter and smiled.
"Grandpa Yang, sorry to bother you. We came to play with Sister Yang and Sister Haiyin."
"Okay, they're having breakfast now. Have the three of you eaten yet? Would you like to eat something at Grandpa Yang's house?"
"Thank you, Grandpa Yang, we've already eaten."
The two girls inside heard Xiao Wu's voice outside and immediately came out, smiling as they took the three of them by the hand and led them into the house.
Yang Yongjian was quite happy. This was a sign that his boss and his wife were satisfied. Although Zhenye and his granddaughter might not be destined to be together, at least his granddaughter was on his wife's radar, which was good for her.
It's not about marrying into a wealthy family, but as an elderly person, I really want to give the child the best. Especially since this child deserves it.
Yang Yongjian slowly finished practicing Tai Chi and went into the living room. Hearing the children's laughter from the study, he smiled and went to wash up and change his clothes.
We're having the three kids stay for lunch. It might seem like we're putting the cart before the horse, trying to please the future brother-in-law first, but who can say it's not a good idea?
The five people in the study got along very well. Xiao Wu and the other two had also studied painting, but only knew the basics. So when Zou Haiyin painted a simple landscape, Xiao Qi showered her with praise. Zou Haiyin beamed with delight.
At 9:30, Yang Yongjian came and knocked on the door.
"Xiao Wu, how about the three of you stay for dinner at Grandpa Yang's house today? Your sister Yang is a great cook, would you like to try some?"
"Then I'll have to bother Grandpa Yang," Xiao Liu said with a smile.
"No, it's not bothering you. You can come visit Grandpa Yang's house whenever you have time."
Xiao Wu sat next to Yang Lijun. "Sister Yang, what are you going to cook for us?"
What does Xiao Wu like to eat?
"Anything is fine with us, none of the three of us are picky eaters."
"Hehe, that's a good child. But Sister Yang's cooking skills are just average. She can only make home-style dishes."
"Then let's make what Sister Yang is best at."
“Okay, then let’s make pancakes. That’s something I’m good at. Xiao Wu, let’s go to the kitchen and get ready.”
"Sure, do you need our help?"
