Ni Cuihua smiled and said, “When you go to Beijing, you must contact me.”
Ni Qingzhu nodded, “Alright, when I get there, I’ll definitely reach out to you.”
“Good.”
After bidding farewell to Ni Qingzhu, Ni Cuihua got into the car heading home.
When she arrived in Jinghua Village, it was just past seven in the evening.
The family hadn’t started dinner yet, they were all waiting for Ni Cuihua.
Shangguan Dehui took the bag from Ni Cuihua’s hand.
Ni Cuihua smiled and said, “You all haven’t eaten yet?”
Shangguan Dehui nodded, “We were waiting for you.”
“Why wait for me? You should eat if you’re hungry.” Ni Cuihua took Xinxin from Shangguan Xi’s arms, “Is our Xinxin hungry?”
Xinxin was just five months old and couldn’t talk yet, but she already recognized people. Now, seeing Ni Cuihua, she smiled so joyfully.
Kaikai nearby also stretched out his arms, making “oh oh” sounds, wanting Ni Cuihua to hold him.
Seeing her two big grandchildren, Ni Cuihua felt much of her fatigue melt away. Holding Xinxin in one arm and Kaikai in the other, she sat on the sofa.
Ni Yang brought over a bib for Xinxin. The little one was possibly teething, her gums felt itchy, and she was drooling quite a lot these days.
Zhao Yu was teaching Little Ni Yun how to speak English.
Mo Qishen and Wu Chenjun voluntarily went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes.
Wu Chenjun nudged Mo Qishen with his elbow, “When are you and Yangyang planning to have kids?”
Mo Qishen said, “Yangyang said to wait another two years; she’s not in a hurry right now.”
“You’re 31 this year, right?” Wu Chenjun asked.
“Yeah.” Mo Qishen nodded.
Wu Chenjun clicked his tongue, “Then by the time you have kids, you’ll almost be 40!”
“Not 40, at most 35.” Mo Qishen replied calmly.
Wu Chenjun continued, “Yangyang says no kids, so you just agree?”
“What else can I do?” Mo Qishen asked in return.
“Whipped husband,” Wu Chenjun teased mercilessly, “A henpecked man! Can’t you show some spine? Look at me, I’m already a dad to two kids!”
“Being a dad to two kids means you’re not afraid of your wife?”
“Of course!” Wu Chenjun said smugly, “I’m so capable; how could I fear my wife? At home, my word is law. If I tell Xiaoxi to go east, she doesn’t dare go west!”
“Really? You’re that impressive?” Mo Qishen raised an eyebrow, “So by your account, Sister Xiaoxi must be terrified of you at home!”
“Definitely! Let me tell you the truth, your Sister Xiaoxi acts like a mouse when she sees me at home, barely daring to speak loudly. Outside, it’s me giving her face!”
Mo Qishen glanced at the door, “Sister Xiaoxi, you’re here.”
Wu Chenjun’s body shook, his face instantly turning pale. He quickly said, “Honey, you’re here! I was just joking earlier, don’t take it seriously.”
Mo Qishen smirked slightly, walked over, and gently patted Wu Chenjun’s shoulder, “We’re both cut from the same cloth, so let’s not make fun of each other!”
Wu Chenjun looked carefully.
There was no Shangguan Xi at the door.
Mo Qishen had tricked him.
Thank goodness!
It was just a false alarm.
Wu Chenjun wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly walked to Mo Qishen, whispering, “Bro, don’t pull this kind of prank anymore. You scared me to death just now!” That fright had probably shaved years off his life.
Mo Qishen ladled out the Chicken Soup from the casserole, “Aren’t you the one who said you’re not afraid of your wife?”
Wu Chenjun: “…”
While the two of them were busy serving the food, Shangguan Dehui came in from outside, “I’ll prepare a fruit platter for us to have some pre-dinner fruit.”
“Dad, let me do it,” Mo Qishen put down the bowl he was holding.
“You have other things to do; I’ll handle this,” Shangguan Dehui said, “I’ll cut it into fancy shapes that most people wouldn’t even know how to do.”
“Alright.” Mo Qishen agreed.
Soon, Shangguan Dehui brought a beautifully arranged fruit platter to the table. Mo Qishen and Wu Chenjun also continued bringing out the dishes one after another.
Shangguan Xu stood by, folding his arms, watching the commotion without any intention of helping.
“Brother-in-law, this isn’t cool. How can you just stand there and watch? Come over and help!”
Shangguan Xu said, “This afternoon, while Adelle and I were busy toiling in the kitchen, where were you two?”
Adelle chimed in, “Exactly, exactly! Everything on tonight’s table was cooked by me and big brother!”
In reality, Adelle had only kept Shangguan Xu company chatting; the true chef was Shangguan Xu.
