"All right!"
Although she didn't know what Qin Yu had taught her, Xia Lan chuckled.
"I hope things go well for them!"
Xia Lan smiled.
Ever since the Qian family moved next door, Xiao Yuqin and Qian's mother have been chatting non-stop. The two hit it off immediately and had a great time talking.
Qian Xue also returned to work at the department store, and as soon as she finished work, she went home with Xia Lan, not even going back to her own home.
Because she knew her mother was definitely in the Qin family.
Xiao Yuqin simply started cooking with Qian's mother at the Qin family's house!
The two chatted and laughed as they cooked, while Tuantuan and Yuanyuan sat obediently beside them, helping them wash the vegetables.
"Oh dear, will they be able to finish washing? Let them go play! We'll take care of the washing..."
Mother Qian watched as Tuantuan and Yuanyuan diligently washed the vegetables, finding it rather adorable, but...
Can such a young child wash vegetables properly?
"No, no, no! Their mother said we can't prevent the children from doing anything. If they want to help, we should let them do what they can! This will help develop their practical skills!"
Xiao Yuqin smiled at Qian's mother and told her about Xia Lan's educational methods.
After hearing this, Qian's mother couldn't help but nod.
"Your daughter-in-law's parenting is correct, but it's pitiful to make such young children do chores."
With a grandmotherly affection, Qian Mu raised her little face and said earnestly.
"Grandma Qian, we will."
Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan pouted, clearly having heard Grandma Qian's words and feeling rejected, looking quite unhappy.
"We will."
Yuanyuan said earnestly, picking up the clean vegetable leaves she had washed to show Qian's mother.
"It's really clean!"
Knowing she had said the wrong thing, Qian's mother quickly replied.
"Um!"
Tuantuan and Yuanyuan nodded in satisfaction and continued washing their vegetables.
Xiao Yuqin chuckled and started washing the other vegetables in her hand.
When Qian Xue and Xia Lan returned, this was the view they saw when they opened the door.
Xia Lan and Qian Xue found it incredibly cute to watch the two adorable little ones diligently washing the vegetables.
"Reunion, everyone! Your Aunt Xue is back!"
"Oh! Aunt Xue, we miss you so much!"
Then Tuantuan rushed towards Qian Xue, and the two embraced each other like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, expressing their longing for each other.
"Mother."
Yuanyuan walked up to Xialan, who smiled, picked him up, and kissed his little face.
"Were you good today? What did you play at home?"
Xia Lan asked, holding Yuan Yuan in her arms.
"Playing with ducks, cars."
Yuan Yuan answered obediently.
Xia Lan looked at his obedient and well-behaved appearance and kissed him again with heartache.
Yuanyuan got shy from the kiss.
"Mommy~"
"Oh my, our Yuanyuan can be shy now!"
Xia Lan smiled.
"Mom, Aunt Qian, what delicious food are you making today?"
Xia Lan carried Yuan Yuan to the kitchen.
"Anyway, everything Mom cooks tastes good!"
Before Xiao Yuqin could answer, Xia Lan answered her own question.
"You child, you've said everything you wanted to say."
Mrs. Qian chuckled, saying that there was no need for an answer; she had already said what she needed to say.
"Ha ha!"
After preparing the meal, Qian's mother, Xiao Yuqin, Qian Xue, and Xia Lan each held Tuantuan and Yuanyuan and sat in the courtyard waiting.
"Ten, nine... three, two, one."
"Aunt Xiao, I've come to see you!"
Du Qiang's voice immediately rang out from outside the door. Du Qiang had once again come to visit Xiao Yuqin under the pretext of checking on her.
Xia Lan looked at Qian Xue beside her, and Qian Xue blushed.
Why are you all looking at me? He didn't come to see me!
"……oh."
Xia Lan smiled slightly, it seemed that Du Qiang wasn't without hope after all.
Last time, I should have hit a straight shot.
"You're all here! Qian Xue, you're here too!"
As soon as Du Qiang entered the room, he walked straight to Qian Xue and stopped in front of her.
He skipped over everyone else in his speech, but deliberately pointed out Qian Xueshi by name.
"This is truly a case of Sima Zhao's intentions being obvious..."
Xia Lan joked.
Du Qiang scratched his hair.
Is it that obvious?
"He's practically saying it out loud!"
Xia Lan looked at Du Qiang. He'd been pursuing him for so long, still using Xiao Yuqin's name... really...
Even they were worried for him.
One minute they're showing concern and asking after her well-being, the next they're bringing her gifts, all under the guise of sending them to Xiao Yuqin.
The gifts were all for young people, which were not suitable for Xiao Yuqin, so she gave them to Qian Xue instead.
Qian Xue was too embarrassed to refuse.
Once or twice is fine, but if it happens every time, even a fool can see through his heart!
"Comrade Qian Xue, I... I'm not good with words, but my feelings for you are genuine! I only want to marry you in this lifetime!"
Du Qiang suddenly pulled out a bouquet of flowers from behind his back and gave it to Qian Xue.
"I want to date you with marriage in mind. Give me a chance, and I promise I'll treat you well, just like my brother treats my sister-in-law!"
Du Qiang came here today prepared, and this move caught Qian Xue completely off guard.
"I...I...I..."
Qian Xue stood up with a flushed face and looked at Du Qiang. She was happy, but the smile on her face disappeared when she thought of Qian Yao.
"I'm going home now."
Qian Xue turned around and ran home.
Du Qiang watched her run so fast and nimbly, and sadly reached out his hand, but there was no time to call out to her.
She had already gone home and slammed the door shut.
"..."
Du Qiang opened his mouth, then sighed.
