This question stumped Ji Yuanyuan.
If she chose Qin Mucheng, Tangtang would definitely be unhappy.
It might even cause great harm to her young heart.
However, if she chose Tangtang, Qin Mucheng, this big vinegar jarâ¦
She looked up speechlessly, wondering if it was too late to pretend to be deaf. Obviously, it was too late. Seeing that she did not answer immediately, Tangtang became anxious.
âMommy, tell Daddy that Iâm the one you love the most. Itâs Qin Yutang.â
Qin Mucheng was a little childish sometimes.
He will take things seriously with Tangtang. After thinking for a moment, she squatted down and said very seriously, âQin Yutang, the person everyone loves the most, should be the other half. When you grow up, you will get married and leave your mother and me. Iâm the only one who will accompany your mother for the rest of her life!â
Tangtang looked at Qin Mucheng in confusion, as if she did not understand what he meant.
She stood rooted to the ground in a daze. After thinking for a long time, she finally understood what Qin Mucheng meant.
âI donât want to get married. I want to be with my mother forever,â she said angrily.
âDonât you like Han Zhou from your class very much? You even said that you want to marry him in the future.â Qin Mucheng said expressionlessly.
âWhat nonsense are you spouting?â Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly covered Qin Muchengâs mouth. âWhen did I tell you about Han Zhou?â
The fact that Tangtang liked Han Zhou was a little secret between the mother and daughter.
Ji Yuanyuan had promised Tangtang that she would not tell anyone.
Now that Qin Mucheng had said it, wouldnât Tangtang know that she had not kept the secret for her?
Sure enough, Tangtang looked at Qin Mucheng in a daze, then at Ji Yuanyuan. With a wail, she began to cry.
âAlright, alright, stop cryingâ¦â Ji Yuanyuan hurriedly hugged her.
However, Tangtang did not want her to hug her. âI donât like Mommy anymore. You donât keep your word. Iâm not the one you love the mostâ¦â
Ji Yuanyuan glared at Qin Mucheng. âYouâre the one who made her cry. You should coax her.â She said helplessly.
The others in the shed looked over when they heard Tangtangâs cries.
Qin Mucheng, who had an indifferent expression on his face, now looked a little awkward.
Seeing this, Ji Zixuan strode over.
When he got closer, he bent down and picked up Tangtangâs arm.
He gently stroked Tangtangâs back to comfort her. At the same time, he looked at Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng with disapproval. âThe two of you added up are almost seventy years old. Why are you still doing this? What good is it for you to make the child cry?â
âIf giving birth to a child is not for fun, then itâs meaningless,â Ji Yuanyuan said embarrassedly.
Fortunately, Ji Yuanyuanâs voice was soft, and Tangtang did not hear it.
Ji Zixuan glared at Ji Yuanyuan before carrying Tangtang away. âTangtang, stop crying. Uncle has already taught your parents a lesson. Letâs go over there and take a look, okay? The strawberries over there are bigger.â
âUncle, Mom is a bad person. I donât want to share my little secrets with her anymore.â Tangtang whimpered.
âTell Uncle in the future,â he coaxed. âUncle promises not to tell anyone.â Ji Yuanyuan looked at her daughterâs back view and quietly whispered into Qin Muchengâs ear. âDonât worry. I still love you the most.â
In her heart, Tangtang and Qin Mucheng were equally important.
However, she was very familiar with the ability to speak human language and ghost language.
Furthermore, what Qin Mucheng said made sense. She was the only one who could accompany her until she grew old.
Whether it was her parents, siblings, or children, they all had their own lives and would eventually be further and further away from her.
She also had to learn to change her way of thinking. The child would grow bigger and bigger, and she had to learn to let go gradually.
It was already past five oâclock in the evening when they returned.
It was past five oâclock in the winter, and the sky was completely dark.
Ji Yuanyuan and the rest picked a few baskets of fresh strawberries and let Wenwen carry them back.
Zhang Kun drank quite a bit and was currently sleeping on the brick bed.
Thinking that it was rare for Zhang Kun to come back, Li Xu did not wake him up and let him sleep at home so that he could accompany her in-laws.
As for her, she had stayed in the hospital the entire night and did not get much sleep during the day. She had a good rest here at night.
On the way back, there were only Qin Mucheng, Ji Yuanyuan, Ji Zixuan, and Tangtang.
Tangtang was a child, after all, so she quickly forgot about the feud in the afternoon.
At this moment, she was leaning into Ji Yuanyuanâs arms and nagging. âMom, can we go pick some strawberries tomorrow? I want to bring some back for Grandpa, Grandma, and Great-Grandpa.â
âTangtang is so filial. But can we pick it before we leave? Otherwise, the strawberries will go bad if they are left for too long.â
âWhen are we going back?â Tangtang asked again.
Ji Yuanyuan hesitated. âIn two days.â
She looked at Ji Zixuan and whispered, âHowâs Sister-in-law? Why donât you go back tomorrow? Grandmaâs condition has stabilized now. With us here to watch over her, sheâll be fine.â
After all, the child was still young. Huang Weiwei must be feeling very wronged to be raising the child alone.
Ji Zixuan shook his head. âYour sister-in-law is at her maternal home. She understands me very well and even advised me to stay here for a few more days.â
âThatâs good.â Ji Yuanyuan nodded.
When they arrived at the villa area, Qin Mucheng brought Tangtang upstairs.
Meanwhile, Ji Zixuan and Ji Yuanyuan drove to the hospital.
In the hospital, Li Yong and Li Miao were alone.
Liu Guihua had been transferred to a single ward.
Li Miao was holding a towel and carefully wiping Liu Guihuaâs hands and feet.
Li Yong was resting on the sofa next to him.
Both of them looked tired.
âSecond Uncle, Aunty,â Ji Yuanyuan said considerately. âGo back and rest. Big Brother and I will stay here tonight to take care of Grandma.â
Liu Guihua was clear-headed. She immediately shook her head slowly. âNo need.â
Li Yong sat up straight. âI donât need you guys. Your Eldest Second Uncle will be here soon. Itâs more convenient for them to keep watch here at night than you.â
It was better to order her son around than to order her grandson and granddaughter around.
Ji ZIxuan was about to say something when his phone rang.
He took it out and looked at it. Then, he looked a little nervous.
They had yet to tell Ji Ziâang that Grandmother was sick.
The main reason was that he was too far away. Moreover, this game seemed to be very important to him.
âGo to the washroom to pick it up. Just say that youâre outside. Donât tell Second Brother so that wonât be distracted.â Ji Yuanyuan urged.
Ji Zixuan sorted out his expression and turned to go to the toilet.
In less than two minutes, he came out.
âZiâangâs flight is at night. Heâll be here tomorrow.â
âSecond Brother has returned to the country?â Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised.
Ji Zixuan nodded, âYes. He is at home now. He found nobody, so he called me..â
