When mother and son t, it was especially emotional.
The two of them hugged each other and cried for more than a minute. Seeing that her father was kneeling, Qin Xi pushed her mother, who was also crying. “Mom, my father is still kneeling. He hasn’t fully recovered yet.”
Qin Xi only hinted subtly. Of course, Chu Yi’s injuries had mostly healed. But she felt the endless crying needed to end at so point!
As expected, when she heard Qin Xi’s words, Mu Min imdiately wiped her tears and walked over. She smiled gently at the old lady who was still wiping her tears. “Mom, you and Chu Yi haven’t seen each other for a long ti. Why don’t we go in and talk? My daughter, no, your granddaughter, is still pregnant with your great-grandson. She’ll get tired standing for so long.”
“Ah. Yes, yes, yes…”
Old Madam Chu, hearing about her pregnant granddaughter, quickly released Chu Yi and stared eagerly at Qin Xi and her belly.
“Is this my granddaughter? What’s your na? I’m your grandma…”
As the old lady spoke, she stared at Qin Xi’s stomach and walked over. Apart from Mu Min and Chu Yi, no one noticed when the old lady, who missed her son so much, heard about her granddaughter and great-grandson… she actually pushed her son. Yes, Chu Yi felt his mother’s… preference for the new over the old.
Chu Yi never imagined this preference would co so swiftly!
Mu Min, noticing the awkwardness, quickly helped Chu Yi up and brushed the dust off his trousers.
“Grandma, hello, I am Chu Qinxi, and this is my husband, Han Shi. We don’t have much to offer as a first eting gift, but here’s a small token from ,” Qin Xi whispered to Old Madam Chu, “This is a special dicinal pill I developed. My grandfather takes it too, rember to take it!”
With that, she winked at the old lady.
“Alright, thank you, Xi!” The old lady held Qin Xi’s hand and patted it lovingly.
Even if it were poison, Old Madam Chu would have taken it without hesitation since it ca from her granddaughter.
“Is he my grandson-in-law?”
The old lady’s gaze landed on Han Shi’s face again. Her wrinkled but elegant face was filled with love. “Good, good. My grandson-in-law is really handso. Only such a handso child is worthy of my granddaughter.”
“Grandma, you flatter . I also have a small gift for you. It’s nothing compared to what Xi brought, but I hope you’ll like it,” Han Shi said as he handed a box to Old Madam Chu.
Old Madam Chu, unable to hide her joy, quickly took the box, “Good, good,
good. You both are such good children.”
Chu Yi and Mu Min exchanged glances, their mouths twitching simultaneously.
They had thought of bringing gifts, but considering what Qin Xi and Han Shi had brought, they decided against it.
“Co inside, it’s getting hot outside,” Old Madam Chu said as she handed the gifts to a servant, holding Qin Xi’s left hand and Han Shi’s right hand, beaming with pride and joy, “Xi, your stomach is so big now. It must be about ti, right? Have you thought of a na for the child?”
When she heard the second half of the sentence, Qin Xi’s face stiffened. She recalled that there were still two old n waiting in line to give the little guy a na. The person in front of her…
She wouldn’t be joining in too, would she?
She glanced at her father, Chu Yi, who quickly turned away and entered the house with Mu Min.
Qin Xi bit her lip, regretting her earlier sympathy for him.. If only she had let him kneel a bit longer!
