Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 934: Chapter 934: My Daughter Loves to Eat

"Chenchen."

"Zaozao."

After the photo was taken, Mo Xiaolin and Zhang Hualian rushed forward to pick up the two children who were about to fall. One was a grandma, the other a grandmother; they almost praised their children to the skies.

"You guys should go change your clothes. Even though the sun is nice right now and you’re wearing clothes inside, these outfits look cold." Zhang Hualian hurriedly urged Tang Yue to change her clothes.

Wearing a qipao in the middle of winter, even if the temperature is nice today and the sun is shining, it still feels cold.

"Sister Xiao Yue, let’s go change clothes." Lian Qingzhi always felt the wind coming in under her feet, so she pulled Lian Qingling along to go home and change.

"I told you not to wear so little." Lian Tong said with a cheeky smile. Although she was pregnant, she was wearing a qipao with thick pants underneath. Aside from feeling a bit inconvenient to move, she didn’t feel cold.

"You should go home and change too." Gu Chun picked her up sideways. Ever since Lian Tong got pregnant, Gu Chun almost treated her like a porcelain doll.

After everyone changed clothes, Lian Qingzhi muttered, "Sister Xuan, didn’t they say Xue Zhiyuan was coming too?"

Clearly, they were going to take a family photo today and they knew about it yesterday. How come Xue Zhiyuan is still absent today?

"He..." Lian Qingxuan looked troubled and said, "He didn’t come back yesterday, and I don’t know where he is. But I left a message with my in-laws, maybe he didn’t make it in time. It’s okay, it doesn’t matter that he’s not here."

After all, our parents get angry just looking at him, and even Grandpa Lian doesn’t think much of Xue Zhiyuan. If he doesn’t come, then so be it.

Tang Yue gave Lian Qingzhi a look, and Lian Qingzhi didn’t dare to say any more.

The sisters, Lian Qingzhi and Lian Qingling, changed their clothes and went outside.

Tang Yue sat by the window with Lian Qingxuan and said, "Sister Xuan, you’re still young."

"Not young anymore, I’m in my thirties." Lian Qingxuan said with a light laugh. Sometimes, when she looks in the mirror, she feels like the person reflecting back is a stranger.

"No, your life is only a third over. Whether you decide to continue on or to separate, you need to think it through. In your current state, even if you don’t get divorced, it’s not necessarily good for the kids," Tang Yue said seriously.

Later in life, I’ve seen many couples stay together for the sake of the children. But a loveless marriage is just as harmful to kids.

"Xiao Yue." Lian Qingxuan’s eyes turned red. Her parents had advised her countless times, either to divorce or to restrain Xue Zhiyuan, not letting him mess around outside. But her heart was too soft, without a hint of authority; even if she wanted to restrain him, she couldn’t.

But when she thought about divorcing, she felt so sorry for her two kids.

"Sister Xuan, you can deeply observe and experience yourself, and see whether you’d be happier divorced or not."

"Why live life with a frown every day? Why be unhappy every day?"

"Sister Xuan, you’re just in your early thirties. You’ve got a lot of good years ahead. If you decide to stay together, discuss it properly with him. If you want to separate, then do it swiftly."

Tang Yue’s words flowed steadily, one after the other.

Lian Qingxuan felt like two different thoughts were tearing at her mind. She had thought about divorce countless times but didn’t have the courage.

Tang Yue’s words today made her vaguely realize that if she wanted to continue, things couldn’t go on like this. If she planned to separate, why drag it out?

Tang Yue didn’t say much more. She changed the subject and said, "I just saw Xiao Yu. What grade is he in now? Doing well in school?"

"He’s in fourth grade, and he’s doing really well. He always ranks in the top twenty in his class." Lian Qingxuan spoke with pride about her son, Xue Yu. She said, "Xiao Yu not only does well in school but plays the piano beautifully. Whenever I hear him play, it feels like all my worries disappear."

"Impressive." Tang Yue also liked the piano, but unfortunately, she had no talent for it.

Besides, even if she had the talent, without the resources to support it back then, she wouldn’t have been able to afford a piano even if she wanted to practice.

Now, she could afford it, but she was past the age of wanting to play. Even if she wanted to start from scratch, she probably wouldn’t have the time.

"And Xianxian?" Tang Yue asked again.

"Don’t let Xianxian’s age fool you. She plays the piano just as well as her brother. Next time, you can have them play for you."

Lian Qingxuan was most happy to have such a pair of children.

"Why wait? There’s a piano right here, isn’t there?"

Tang Yue was eager to see them play. Since there was a piano conveniently available, why not try?

Xue Yu and Xue Xianxian, hearing that Tang Yue wanted to listen, didn’t hesitate. They sat at the piano and began to play.

Canon.

Though Tang Yue couldn’t play the piano, she recognized it immediately. She didn’t know Xue Yu’s skill level, but his playing was beautiful. Everyone listened intently, except for Zaozao and Chenchen, who fell asleep to the music.

Seven-year-old Xue Xianxian played Dream Wedding. It wasn’t very smooth but still recognizable. She’s only so young, three years younger than Xue Yu, but plays so well, which is impressive.

The sight of the siblings playing the piano was beautiful. Tang Yue’s gaze drifted to the slumbering Zaozao and Chenchen.

"In the future, we’ll have a piano at home too." Si Yu suggested next to her ear.

Tang Yue nodded repeatedly, thinking it was an excellent idea. While she hadn’t learned to play, she could let the kids learn piano in the future.

The joyful morning passed quickly. After a reunion meal, Second Uncle Lian and Third Uncle Lian’s families left, leaving just them in the villa. Tang Yue and Si Yu’s family were preparing to return to Jing City the next day, and Lian Tong was reluctant to let them go.

That evening, Leng Hua hosted a dinner, inviting the Mo Family and Tang Yue’s group to join them.

Since it was still just the afternoon and the two kids were asleep, Tang Yue and Si Yu went for a walk nearby.

"The scenery here is nice." Si Yu, dressed in casual clothes, stood by Tang Yue’s side. Tang Yue only reached his shoulder. She glanced up and asked, "Will you have time to go back to Jing City tomorrow?"

"Of course I’ll make it. I just need to be at the office the day after tomorrow morning." Si Yu wished he could pull her into his arms. If it were up to him, he’d rather relax with Tang Yue in bed than go for a walk.

But knowing how shy Tang Yue could be, he could only entertain the thought.

The scenery around Xiangquan Lake was exceptionally beautiful, surrounded by mountains and water. They unknowingly wandered past the street outside Xiangquan Lake, coming upon a small man-made park with beautiful scenery. Nearby was a row of shops selling food and various fruits.

Maybe because it was near Xiangquan Lake, the fruits here looked particularly tempting.

"Are there any non-crispy apples? My daughter likes the soft kind."
