Not only was Qin Haowen not angry, he even smiled and praised, “Our Tangtang’s hands are really agile. She can even grab my short hair. She’s amazing.”
Ji Yuanyuan held back her laughter, changed her shoes, and stepped forward.
She gently grabbed Tangtang’s hand that was holding Qin Haowen’s hair and pressed it down.
She picked up Tangtang with her other hand.
As soon as she hugged Tangtang, her small hands naturally let go.
Qin Haowen endured the pain and rubbed his head.
Ji Yuanyuan wanted to reason with Tangtang, but seeing her innocent smile, she could not bear to say anything.
Cheng Shuqin came out of the kitchen, “Go wash your hands and eat.”
Then, she looked at Ji Yuanyuan, “I asked someone to send a batch of clothes and shoes for Tangtang in the afternoon. They’ve been washed and dried. Go and try them on for her later.”
“Mom,” Ji Yuanyuan said helplessly, “She can’t even wear all her clothes and shoes. Don’t buy her anything for the time being. Previously, many of the clothes were unopened and couldn’t be worn. It was too wasteful.”
“How can it be wasteful?” Cheng Shuqin disagreed. “Donate the unopened ones to the children in the mountains. It’s a good deed.”
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Tangtang who was giggling in her arms and sighed, “In our family, the only person who has a bit of rationality in front of Tangtang is Mucheng. It seemed that Tangtang’s education would have to be handed over to Mucheng in the future. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll spoil her.”
Qin Junshan, Qin Haowen, and Cheng Shuqin didn’t need to be mentioned.
The word ‘cross-generation’ was vividly reflected in them.
Just like how Qin Haowen had to praise Tangtang for her nimble hands when Tangtang grabbed his hair.
He simply had no principles at all.
“Girls should be spoiled. It’s not to the extent of harming her. Your father, grandfather, and I are indulgent towards Tangtang now because Tangtang is still immature. In the future, when she’s sensible, we naturally won’t do everything according to her personality. We all know what’s right and what’s wrong.” Cheng Shuqin explained seriously.
Qin Junshan also nodded and said, “Yes, you… Don’t worry about that.”
Ji Yuanyuan smiled awkwardly, “No, I’m not worried. I was just saying.”
Just now, she did not think through her words and casually sighed.
Now that she thought about it, she sounded like she was complaining.
Fortunately, her grandfather and parents-in-law were reasonable people. Otherwise, there might have been some animosity between them.
Cheng Shuqin didn’t want to say anything more about this.
It was Yuanyuan’s first time being a mother, so it was normal for her to be worried.
However, after a while, she will understand.
“Alright, alright, go wash your hands and eat. Mucheng won’t be back tonight. Yuanyuan, leave the child with the nanny and come over for dinner first.”
Ji Yuanyuan quickly agreed. The nanny who had been waiting at the side came forward and took Tangtang.
Tangtang stretched out her hand and babbled, wanting to find her mother.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly washed her hands and sat at the dining table.
Tangtang stretched out her hand for a long time, but when she saw that Ji Yuanyuan had no intention of hugging her, she retracted her hand aggrievedly.
However, Ji Yuanyuan was still within her line of sight. She did not continue to make noise and quietly lay in the small car, playing with her toys.
After dinner, Ji Yuanyuan brought her daughter to see the clothes and shoes that Cheng Shuqin had bought for her.
Every time Cheng Shuqin made a move, she would spend a lot of money and buy more than ten sets at once.
It was too troublesome to try on clothes, so Ji Yuanyuan only brought Tang Tang to try on shoes.
Tangtang had just learned how to crawl and could not walk yet. Therefore, the practical functions of the shoes were almost zero. Some of them only had decorative functions.
Cheng Shuqin had bought soft shoes that wouldn’t hurt children’s feet.
After trying on the shoes, Ji Yuanyuan played with her daughter in the living room for about an hour before Qin Mucheng returned home.
He didn’t drink, and there was no smell of alcohol on him.
“Have you eaten?” Ji Yuanyuan asked.
“Yes, I have.” Qin Mucheng nodded.
Because of Lin Nan’s phone call in the afternoon, he did not say much to Ji Yuanyuan.
“Who did you have dinner with? You didn’t drink?” Ji Yuanyuan asked casually.
Generally speaking, a party that could make Qin Mucheng stay up until this late was usually a drinking party. It was rare that he did not drink today.
Qin Mucheng hummed in acknowledgment and did not say anything else.
If she told Ji Yuanyuan that the person he met in the afternoon was Lin Nan, she would definitely be able to guess that Lin Nan’s call in the afternoon was under his instructions.
He did not want Ji Yuanyuan to feel that he was secretly controlling her life.
Therefore, Qin Mucheng chose to hide it.
However, Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng had known each other for sixteen years.
Ji Yuanyuan quickly noticed that something was wrong with Qin Mucheng.
She moved closer to Qin Mucheng and could faintly smell a high-cla.s.s perfume.
Ji Yuanyuan knew about this perfume. She had a bottle but had not used it for a long time. Ever since she got pregnant, she rarely used perfume.
In the afternoon, Qin Mucheng met a woman and stayed with her for a long time.
Although Ji Yuanyuan completely trusted Qin Mucheng, she could not help but overthink.
“Who did you have dinner with?” She asked again. “Did you not drink because they were girls?”
“Huadi’s people, they are a group of old men.” Qin Mucheng explained.
Ji Yuanyuan’s heart sank.
This perfume was very feminine.
No man would use it, let alone on such an important occasion as a meeting with a partner.
Therefore, there must be a girl among the people who met Qin Mucheng.
But why would Qin Mucheng lie to her?
Ji Yuanyuan could not understand.
However, she did not continue to ask.
After all, she trusted Qin Mucheng enough.
Qin Mucheng had already washed his hands. Seeing that Tangtang was staring at Qin Mucheng, Ji Yuanyuan placed her daughter on top of Qin Mucheng, “You can play with her for a while. I’ll go up and clean up first.”
Qin Mucheng did not notice Ji Yuanyuan’s unusual behavior. He smiled and kissed Tangtang on the cheek, “Okay. You can go.”
Probably because Qin Mucheng’s stubble tickled Tangtang’s face, she smiled and avoided Qin Mucheng’s face.
The father and daughter soon started playing.
Ji Yuanyuan went upstairs. While she was showering, she kept thinking about Qin Mucheng’s lie and was a little absent-minded.
She did not even know when Qin Mucheng and Tangtang came up.
When she came out of the bathroom, she saw Qin Mucheng sitting on the sofa and staring at Tangtang.
Tangtang was probably sleepy as she stared at Qin Mucheng’s chin with a dazed look.
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment. Then, she said, “Give it to me first. I’ll coax her to sleep. You go and take a shower.”
Qin Mucheng looked up, “Go and dry your hair first. I’ll coax her to sleep..”
