He glanced at the sponge cake, then at his younger brother whose mouth was already drooling, and quickly pulled him aside, saying to Chi Yu in a slightly childish voice:
"Thank you, Auntie, we will!"
After saying this, she reached out her little hand to take the sponge cake.
Then I broke the cake in half, giving the slightly larger piece to my younger brother.
"Ali, eat!"
Ali was a little younger, so when he heard that he could eat it, he took it and started eating.
This wasn't the first time Chi Yu had seen A Guang taking care of his younger brother.
Seeing how sensible he is at such a young age, I felt a pang of sympathy, but also a desire to take him under my wing and nurture him.
Ah-Guang is intelligent. Given the limited resources in Chijia'ao, if he can be given a good environment to grow up in, he should be able to do well in the future.
But she didn't want her child to leave her parents' side at such a young age.
It seems she needs to find a way to create a better environment for them!
Right now, we only have these two grand-nephews, but who knows if there will be any more intelligent ones in the future?
Children's education must begin from a young age.
There's only one teacher in Chijia'ao, that's not enough!
In addition, it's inconvenient to go up and down the mountain from here. Once we get our share of the wood ash profits, we'll have to build a road down the mountain!
While Chi Yu was thinking about these things, she heard the commotion outside as Chi Kang was welcoming his bride.
Because it was done in a simple manner, the welcoming process went smoothly. No one blocked the door, and Chi Kang was not given any difficulties.
He went straight into Zhong Yufeng's room, took her with him, and after saying goodbye to Wang Yunjuan and her husband, he left.
To show that he valued her, Chi Kang carried Zhong Yufeng all the way back to the second wife's new house.
Even fearing she would get sunburned, he had someone hold Mi'er, and then Mi'er held up an oil-paper umbrella that she had found somewhere, over Zhong Yufeng's head.
These people get married quickly, and they leave just as quickly.
In just about fifteen minutes, they were all gone.
In the originally joyous house, only Wang Yunjuan and her husband had tears in their eyes because of their daughter's wedding.
About 15 minutes after they left, Chi Deng came over carrying Liu Mei.
After he put the person down, he ran outside.
Liu Mei, supporting her pregnant belly, carefully walked to the main room.
Not seeing Zhuangzhuang, Aguang, and Ali in the main house, they headed towards the kitchen.
The kitchen was crowded and hot, so she didn't go in to join the fun. Instead, she stood at the door and asked:
"Mother, my aunt is back?"
"right!"
Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Liu Mei called out, "Auntie, where are you?"
Chi Yu, who was holding Zhuangzhuang and preparing to take A Guang and A Li back to the main room, heard the sound and stepped out of Qin Mu's room.
"Aden's wife, is there something you need?"
Liu Mei's eyes lit up when she saw her.
She took two large steps forward, then, remembering something, changed to small, quick steps.
"Auntie, I'm pregnant!"
Seeing her happy expression, Chi Yu smiled and asked, "Really? That's great! By the way, how old is your child?"
"More than a month! Auntie, could you touch my belly and say something that expresses your wish that I can have my wish fulfilled?"
I want to have a daughter, preferably as smart and beautiful as you, my dear sister-in-law.
Chi Yu knew that in Chijia'ao, any new bride who knew that a son was not popular in her husband's family would want to have a daughter.
Unfortunately, the number of girls born in Chijia'ao, starting with Mi'er, can still be counted on one hand.
Therefore, it's not surprising that Liu Mei would have such thoughts.
However, Liu Mei is the first person to let her touch her belly and say that her wish has come true!
