Before Li Mingqing reached home, he was stopped by Old Lady Xu.
"Mingqing, you're finally back. Come and see if my Yaozu is feeling unwell. I've noticed he hasn't been able to eat much these past two days. Look how thin the child is."
Xu Yaozu is indeed thin.
But the child has been thin for a long time. If the Zhang family's child had not been in trouble, she would definitely not have brought the child to see her.
But the child seems to be in good spirits and should be fine.
He stretched out his hand to feel the pulse and found that there was indeed nothing wrong.
"The child is fine, there's nothing wrong with him."
"Really? Take a closer look. Why isn't the child gaining weight?"
"If you're really worried, go to the hospital. It's strange that you can gain weight by eating bland soup all day. You and your son should go back to work."
The Xu family depends entirely on Wang Dahahua for work, and their livelihood depends entirely on the few work points she earns.
"That won't do. I'm too old to go to work, and my son needs to stay at home to look after Yaozu."
"Oh, your grandson continues to be hungry."
"There's plenty of food for the children, so how could they be hungry?"
"Look at how the Zheng family's old couple has taken good care of their child and made him plump and white."
Old Lady Xu didn't say anything else. The Zheng family's grandson did look strong.
She thought to herself that she definitely didn't want to go, so only her son could go.
He said, "Our Yaozu is much more blessed than the Zheng family's kid. You really can't talk at all."
Li Mingqing didn't continue to argue with her and turned away.
When I got home, Sun Jiaxue was playing with Niu Niu.
Seeing her holding the child, he reached out to take it and said, "Don't hold Niuniu for the next two days. Wait until your hand is healed."
"It's just two scratches. It looks scary, but it's okay."
"Usually I would cry out in pain if I exerted even the slightest force, but now it doesn't hurt at all."
Sun Jiaxue's face turned red all the way to her neck.
"You—Niuniu is still here."
He smiled and said, "Niuniu is still young and doesn't understand. Let's send Niuniu to her mother tonight."
"Brother Mingqing, I'm really fine."
"I'm so glad you're okay. I have something to do with you, and it's inconvenient for the child."
Even though Sun Jiaxue was slow-witted, she understood what he meant.
"I—I'll wait until the child falls asleep."
After she finished speaking, she hurried to the kitchen to cook.
Li Mingqing smiled and said, "My daughter, your mother is so shy. Go sleep with your grandmother tonight. I'll bring you some milk powder."
Niu Niu looked at him with her big eyes and smiled at him.
"Since you smiled, I'll take it as your agreement."
Since she was born, Mrs. Li has seen her many times and loves her very much.
He put Niu Niu on the bed and started packing her wet diapers, milk powder and blanket.
As soon as Sun Jiaxue came in, she saw the things in the bag.
"Brother Mingqing, what is this?"
"Send Niuniu to mom later. I've packed everything. Nothing is missing."
"actually--"
"Wife, please stop talking. Last time you only cared about your daughter and ignored me."
"Ouch, shut up."
She said coquettishly with a red face.
She looks like an unmarried girl.
Li Mingqing pulled her in and kissed the corner of her lips, "Okay, I know you're shy, I won't say anything more."
She leaned against him and muttered, "The child is still here."
He chuckled and said, "He's playing with a little duck. He's so young he doesn't know anything."
Although I knew she didn't understand, I still felt embarrassed.
After he said that, he pulled the back of her hand to look at the scar, and the bloodstain had faded a lot.
"Next time you see that crazy bitch Wu Lili, you'd better stay away from her. You never know what she'll do when she goes crazy."
"Yeah, it's my fault this time. Fortunately, Niuniu wasn't scared."
"Thank goodness Wangcai was so helpful. I gave it two chicken legs to eat at night."
Sun Jiaxue is stewing chicken in the kitchen. We can have some noodles and eat soon.
Seeing that it was getting dark, Li Mingqing carried Niuniu to the old house.
"Brother Mingqing, I'll go with you."
She really couldn't bear to leave her child.
When I arrived at the old house, I saw Old Lady Li just coming out of the room.
"I was just about to go to your house, is that okay?"
"It's okay, my wife's hand was scratched. Niuniu can sleep in your room tonight."
Old Lady Li looked at the back of her hand and said, "Okay, I'll watch it tonight."
Niu Niu is very obedient. She never cries or shouts. She just whines when she wants to drink milk. She is very easy to take care of.
Sun Jiaxue said, "Mother, you are tired."
"What's so tiring? Niuniu is so well behaved, otherwise Da Niu and the others wouldn't go to play with Niuniu all day long."
"Mom, this is Niuniu's milk powder and other things she needs."
"Just put it on the stool."
The two put it down and left.
As soon as they reached the door, Sun Jiaxue said worriedly, "I don't know if Niuniu will look for us."
"Wife, don't worry. Our mother looks after the child every day. I think Niuniu is closer to her than to us."
"That's true."
Mrs. Li has been taking care of the child herself since he was born.
Sun Jiaxue and Li Mingqing, two new parents, were taught everything about raising children by Old Lady Li, so they don't have to worry at all.
The next morning.
Li Mingqing went to the old house to pick up the child.
"Mom, was Niuniu good last night?"
"He's so good, he slept until morning, and he just woke up not long ago, just after he finished drinking milk."
"Niuniu, come home with Daddy."
Niu Niu smiled, showing her lower teeth, and reached out to him.
"Mom, this is chicken soup. You and Dad should heat it up and drink it."
Old Lady Li smiled and said, "Great, that's why I don't have to cook."
"Just drinking chicken soup won't do. I need to make some pancakes. Dad has to go to work later and he'll be so tired."
