The two old ladies were busy in the kitchen. When they heard that Xiao Kexin could talk, they put down their kitchen knives and ran out wearing aprons.
The two of them trotted all the way to the living room. Seeing Xiao Kexin sitting in Xiao Yihan's arms, calling out "Dad," "Mom," "Grandpa," and "Father-in-law" sweetly, their hearts almost melted.
Grandma Xiao and Grandma He also vied to let Xiao Kexin call them. When Xiao Kexin opened her mouth, she could only say, "Tai...Tai!". Even though it was such a simple call, it made the two old ladies excited and shed tears.
Grandma He looked at Beibei and said dissatisfiedly, "I take care of this brat every day, but he can't even bark. He's not even as good as our little Kexin. What a little idiot."
As he said this, he pinched Beibei's little butt, his eyes full of doting.
Grandma Xiao said with a smile: "Pei Lan, little girls are usually more clever than brats and speak earlier.
This was the case with our third child and Yumin. Yumin could call "Mom" when she was ten months old, but the third child didn't speak until he was one week and two months old.
Just wait! In a few days, these little guys will all learn to talk."
As the saying goes, Speak of the devil and he will appear. Just when everyone was happily entertaining the children,
Xiao Yumin came in carrying milk powder and a basket of eggs. As soon as she entered the door, she put down her things and couldn't wait to pick up Xiao Kexin and start teasing her.
"Oh, little Kexin, you are getting cuter and cuter! You can even talk now, call me auntie!" Xiao Yumin kissed little Kexin's little face, making her giggle.
Grandma Xiao smiled and said, "Yumin, why are you here? Didn't you say yesterday that you were going to take Xiaoyue on a blind date? Why aren't you coming today?"
Xiao Yumin snorted coldly and said, "Qi Yue agreed very well this time and agreed to go on a blind date. I said I would go with him, but he wouldn't let me go and insisted that he go alone.
It was the same thing last time. In the end, he didn't go at all. He told the matchmaker that he had an urgent task and couldn't go.
It happened again this time. He went straight to Sister Li's house in our compound this morning and told her he had something to do that afternoon and that he would make an appointment another day. It really pissed me off!"
After hearing this, Grandma Xiao frowned and said dissatisfiedly, "Why is this child like this? He is already 26 years old, not young anymore, it's time for him to get married.
Look at Yi Han, she had five children by the time she was 26.
Yumin, don't spoil him too much. You must take him on blind dates, and try to get him married this year and have a baby next year!"
Xiao Yumin sighed and said, "Mom, I know, but Qi Yue is a very opinionated kid, and I can't persuade him.
I don’t know what he’s thinking. Sometimes I worry that there’s something wrong with the child and I really want to take him to the hospital.”
Grandma He smiled and said, "What's wrong with that? I think Qi Yue just hasn't met the right person yet. Once fate arrives, you won't be able to stop it."
Xiao Yumin shook her head. "Auntie, Qi Yue's army is almost entirely made up of men. If he doesn't go on blind dates, how can he find a suitable partner?"
Grandma Xiao pondered for a moment, "Yumin, do you think Xiaoyue might already have someone in her heart, so she refused to go on the blind date?"
Xiao Yumin sighed and said helplessly: "Mom, I have thought so too, but every time I asked him, he said no and refused to talk more.
This kid has a lot of ideas and is really hard to understand.
Introduce him to a strange girl! He thinks blind dates are awkward, two people who don't know each other, and have to chat about nothing, too boring.
Introduce him to a girl he knows well! He still has something to say.
Many girls from our compound were introduced to him. I think they are all very outstanding. Guess what Xiao Yue said?
Grandma Xiao asked curiously: "What can he say? Either he looks down on me, or he says I'm not worthy of you!"
Xiao Yumin curled her lips. "People say you can't marry a girl from the same courtyard. I grew up with them, and every time I close my eyes, I remember their ugly faces when they had runny noses and were sniffing hard."
Chu Jingqiu couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Qi Yue is really living a foolish life. Didn't he have a runny nose as a child? This is actually a reason for rejection, haha...!"
Everyone was talking and laughing when Xiao Yihan came over, holding Ding Ding's hand and asking with a smile, "Grandma, Auntie, what are you talking about? You look so happy."
Grandma Xiao smiled and said, "We were just talking about your Xiaoyue finding a partner. This kid is never in a hurry to get married, which is really worrying.
Yihan, you're often with Xiaoyue. Does Xiaoyue have someone in her heart? Otherwise, why doesn't she always go on blind dates?"
Xiao Yihan frowned after hearing this and said, "No! For so many years, I haven't heard that Qi Yue has ever dated any girl, nor have I heard him say that he has ever liked anyone.
He told me yesterday that if he were to find a partner, he would look for someone who moved his heart, and not just for the sake of getting married.
Xiao Yumin sighed, "He's been in the military camp all day, with a bunch of male comrades. How can he find a female comrade he likes? He's just daydreaming!"
Neither of the two children I gave birth to gave me peace of mind.
Qi Fei is the same. She's already 22 years old, but she insisted on going to such a faraway province to join the army. She's been gone all day and hasn't even found a partner. She's like a tomboy. I'm worried about them."
Grandma Xiao: "Yumin, I feel like Xiaoyue just hates awkward blind dates. You can just not tell him and take him over to meet those girls. Maybe Qiyue will fall in love with them at first sight!"
Xiao Yumin shook her head. "Last time I went on a blind date with Yue Wenli, didn't I tell him? I just asked him to go out for dinner and meet her? In the end, he still didn't like her.
However, I'm really glad he didn't like her. This girl is a bit weird and evil."
Grandma He asked curiously, "Xiao Min, which unit are you introducing Qi Yue to?"
Xiao Yumin said with some regret: "This girl is very outstanding. She is a professor at Tsinghua University. She went abroad to teach after graduating from university. She is the same age as Qi Yue.
Her parents are both university professors. They were all sent down to the countryside two years ago and were rehabilitated last year, so their marriage was delayed.
Chu Jingqiu asked hurriedly, "Aunt, what's that girl's name? I happen to be going to that school the day after tomorrow afternoon to teach two classes to the students of the Academy of Fine Arts. I'll help Qi Yue take a look at her then."
Xiao Yumin thought for a moment and said, "I heard Sister Li say it a little, but I didn't get it right. I think her name is Shu Yahan, and she seems to be in the Department of Mechanics. There aren't many people with that last name. I think you'll see her if you ask around there."
Maybe everyone was talking about Qi Yue finding a partner during the day. As the saying goes, what you think about during the day, you dream about at night.
Xiao Yihan had a long dream in the space at night. The protagonist in this dream was Qi Yue. This time he did not dream of any danger, but of Qi Yue’s marriage.
