Lu Qingyang didn't answer, but quickly confirmed that the doors and windows were closed.
Then, he moved his mind slightly, and several boxes of snacks neatly wrapped in oil paper and emitting an enticing sweet aroma, as well as a bulging cloth bag, appeared out of thin air in his hands.
"Okay, you can open your eyes now."
When Shen Mo opened her eyes, the first thing that caught her eye was the fragrant oil paper bags. The sweet scent of milk, fruit and caramel instantly filled the entire room.
"This is..." Shen Mo opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Dian 뀞?"
"Well, some of the most famous time-honored brands in Suicheng were brought here from Hongcheng."
Lu Qingyang opened the pastry boxes one by one like he was presenting a treasure, revealing the exquisite and tempting pastries inside: egg yolk pastries with layers of puff pastry, crystal shrimp dumplings filled with red bean paste, apricot cakes with a rich milky aroma, and custard buns...
"놖... Can you eat so much?"
"Don't think you don't know your appetite. Didn't you ask Aunt Liu to prepare more food for you these days?"
Shen Mo scratched her head embarrassedly: "When I gave birth, my appetite was a little better, but now it has returned to normal."
She squinted her eyes in satisfaction: "Mmm... Delicious! Very delicious!"
He pushed the bulging cloth bag in front of her again: "Look at this again."
Chen Mo curiously opened the cloth bag, which contained all kinds of novel and interesting gadgets:
A few uniquely shaped hairpins inlaid with colorful rhinestones; a few beautifully packaged lipsticks and lip balms; a few bars of soap printed with foreign words and beautiful patterns; and a few beautifully bound Hong Kong fashion magazines...
A complete set of skin care products and cosmetics.
"Wow! So beautiful!" Shen Mo picked up a butterfly-shaped hairpin and looked at it carefully under the light.
There were a lot of things in front of her, and she was overwhelmed by them all.
"Do you like it?"
"I like it! I like it so much!" Shen Mo nodded vigorously, picked up a bean paste-colored lipstick and gently tried it on her wrist. "This color is so beautiful... This hairpin is so delicate... Qingyang, you have such good taste!"
"As long as you like it." Lu Qingyang looked at her happy expression and felt that it was all worth it.
He carefully took out something from the bottom of the cloth bag, a neatly folded silk scarf.
But this is no ordinary scarf.
When unfolded, it is a piece of extremely soft and smooth cloth, with delicate and complicated pure white lace inlaid on the edge, layer upon layer, as exquisite as a work of art.
"This is..." Shen Mo's eyes were instantly attracted.
"I saw it in Hong Kong. It is said to be the 'lace' that is very popular there now."
"It's pretty, but it would be weird to take her out. Everyone would say she's like a capitalist."
"Let it go, no one will talk about it anymore, let it go."
While Shen Mo was eating some snacks, she was flipping through the Hong Kong fashion magazine that Lu Qingyang brought back with her other hand.
Those pictures with bright colors and novel layouts, those clothing styles and hairstyles that she had never seen before, all made her feel novel and yearning.
She watched with great interest, and from time to time she would point at a design and discuss it with Lu Qingyang in a low voice.
"Qingyang, look at this skirt. The waistline is so high, it makes the person look so slender."
"This hairstyle is also nice, it's curly, but it looks good..."
"Wow, this color combination is really bold, but it looks so comfortable..."
When Chen Mo turned to one of the pages, the style of the painting suddenly changed.
A color photo that takes up most of the page catches the eye:
The azure sea, the golden sand beach, a slim and modern girl with a bright smile, was wearing an extremely revealing dress - one that Shen Mo had never seen before!
The dress only had a short upper half and an even shorter lower half, exposing large areas of snow-white skin to the sun, especially the long legs and slender waist, which were almost completely visible!
"Ah!" She covered her eyes with her hands almost reflexively, her cheeks instantly turned red like ripe tomatoes, and even her earlobes were stained crimson.
"This...this...this...what is this?"
After meeting Lu Qingyang and understanding the relationship between men and women, she was no longer so ignorant. She knew that she was wearing too little, almost the same as having nothing on.
Lu Qingyang was stunned by her sudden and violent reaction.
Then he glanced at the magazine page that was sticking out from between her fingers and immediately understood what was going on.
He laughed secretly in his heart. The degree of openness in Hong Kong was indeed too "stimulating" for Shen Mo of this age.
He tried hard to suppress his laughter, fearing that laughing would make her even more embarrassed.
"This is a swimsuit. You can wear it when you go to the beach. It's like this in Hong Kong."
Shen Mo slowly opened her eyes, with a serious face, pretending to be serious: "So that's how it is, I thought..."
"Don't you know what you're thinking about?"
The more Shen Mo looked at these things, the more she liked them.
The two of them snuggled together and discussed in low voices the details of the hundred-day banquet, from the menu to the guests, and to the objects for the one-year-old ceremony.
Before she knew it, Shen Mo had finished most of the boxes of snacks that Lu Qingyang brought back, and finally touched her stomach with satisfaction.
"I haven't eaten so well in a long time," she smiled a little embarrassedly, "it's all because the food you brought back was so delicious."
"If you like it, eat more. I'll bring you more next time."
As they were talking, there was a gentle knock on the door, and Aunt Liu and Teacher Chen came back holding the child.
The stones and fish seemed to smell their mother's breath. They twisted their heads, hummed sounds came from their mouths, and waved their fists.
"The two children are hungry and need to be fed." Aunt Liu said with a smile, her eyes showing understanding. Obviously she knew that the couple must have said a lot of considerate words just now.
"Give it to me quickly." Shen Mo quickly stood up, with a blush still on her face, and reached out to take the child.
Lu Qingyang also stood up and took the obviously more lively Shitou from Aunt Liu's arms naturally:
"Come and hold the stone. You feed the fish first."
He adjusted his holding position skillfully, patting his son's back gently to calm his anxious emotions.
After not seeing each other for a few months, his movements in holding the child were still standard and gentle, without any sense of unfamiliarity.
Shen Mo gently took 께 Yuer, who was relatively quiet in Teacher Chen's arms, sat down beside the bed and began to breastfeed.
When the two children were full and burping contentedly, Lu Qingyang immediately volunteered, "Come and change their diapers."
He swiftly opened the drawer of the nearby cabinet and took out clean diapers and talcum powder.
When changing the diaper of Shitou, who was feeling full and comfortable, the little guy was still kicking his legs dishonestly, Lu Qingyang coaxed him in a low voice, "Be good, Shitou, don't move around", while his hands moved smoothly, wiping, powdering, wrapping the diaper, and tying the straps, all in one go.
Then she quickly changed the clothes for the more obedient 께鱼儿. The whole process was clean and neat, and Aunt Liu and Teacher Chen next to them couldn't help but nod in praise.
"Director Lu's skills in taking care of children are really good. She is more capable than many mothers." Teacher Chen praised with a smile.
Lu Qingyang felt a little proud of being praised. He tidied up the clothes for the two children and looked at them lying side by side on the bed, their big black eyes wide open, curiously looking at the world, his heart filled with the satisfaction of being a human for the first time.
He suddenly remembered something and his eyes lit up.
“That’s right!”
He walked quickly to the luggage he brought back, rummaged around, and took out a small package wrapped in soft cotton cloth: "Look at this!"
