During the Mid-Autumn season, it is exactly the time for reunion.
Starting several days ago, mooncake gift boxes kept piling up at Home, most sent by family and friends, or by Qin Nanfeng’s business partners.
Hmm… Qidian Platform also sent mooncakes to some authors, and Lin Xinyuan naturally received some too.
Leaving aside whether the custom mooncake gift boxes from this Platform taste good, the packaging is quite nice.
In the Afternoon, Lin Xinyuan and Qin Nanfeng took their daughter to Qin Family Villa, planning to have a Meal there tonight.
This year’s Mid-Autumn Festival, besides Qin Qingge and her husband, Grandpa Qin also flew over from Quancheng, planning to visit his granddaughter.
Originally, after the child Yi Yi was born, Qin Father and Qin Mother wanted Grandpa Qin to come live in Tianbei City, so that every visit to see the little one would not be so troublesome and exhausting.
But the old man was terribly stubborn, and it was unclear whether he simply did not want to leave Qin Family Old House, saying that transportation was convenient now, so he could come whenever he wanted.
The vehicle drove into the Villa and had just stopped when little Qin Yiyi struggled to push open the car door, got out impatiently, and ran familiarly toward the elegantly decorated front door.
Xiao Huang followed closely behind the little one, never leaving the little master’s side.
“Grandfather! Grandmother! Great-grandfather!”
The front door had already been opened, and Qin Yiyi went in unobstructed with Xiao Huang, and laughter immediately came from inside.
Lin Xinyuan, who had just gotten out of the Co-pilot Seat, could not help feeling a little helpless at the sight, wanting her daughter to slow down, but seeing that she had already run out of sight, she finally shook her head.
“This girl…”
“Let’s go, Wife?”
Qin Nanfeng also got out of the car at this time, walked to Lin Xinyuan’s side, and stepped forward to take his little wife’s soft hand.
“Mm…” Lin Xinyuan nodded.
Though in front of her Husband her expression still seemed rather indifferent, her little face could not help blushing slightly, which melted that deliberate coldness, making her look both conflicted and cute.
Passing through the Courtyard, the two walked toward the Villa, soon entered the door, passed the entryway, and the scene in the Living Room immediately came into view.
At this moment, on the sofa in the Living Room, several elders were gathered around the little one, asking all sorts of questions, with laughter everywhere.
Even Qin Father, who usually seemed very steady, had long since had his heart thoroughly melted by the little one, and now spoke much more.
It is said that grandparents and grandchildren are especially close, and between Qin Father and Xiao Yiyi it was displayed to the fullest…
Noticing the movement of Lin Xinyuan and the other, the elders finally looked over, and Grandpa Qin smiled and waved to them. “Xiaoyuan, you’re here?”
“Grandfather, long time no see!”
Lin Xinyuan was very respectful and affectionate toward this elder who had always treated her well.
She first went forward with Qin Nanfeng, greeted the elders and Qin Qingge’s family one by one, and only then exchanged a few pleasantries.
Of course, Lin Xinyuan also met Qin Qingge and her husband’s one-and-a-half-year-old son Cheng Xuan, Xiao Yiyi’s younger cousin.
Perhaps because of Xiao Yiyi, Lin Xinyuan now had no resistance to small children, and when she saw a cute child she could not help going over, casually reaching out to pinch Xiao Xuan’s cheek.
Compared with the elegant urban beauty she had been four years ago, the sharp edge Qin Qingge had developed in the workplace had clearly faded a great deal, and she had become gentle.
She coaxed the child in her arms, her voice gentle. “Xiao Xuan, call me Young Aunt-in-law~”
“Young… Aunt-in-law…”
As soon as Xiao Xuan saw Lin Xinyuan, he could not help smiling, giggling “hehehe,” and though his speech was a little halting, he could still say it completely, even trying to reach out and touch Young Aunt-in-law’s face.
Seeing this, Qin Qingge lightly nudged with her shoulder Lin Xinyuan, who had leaned her face close and let Xiao Xuan touch it, and blinked.
“Meimei, I told you children really like you, didn’t I? Xiao Xuan does too!”
“Uh… it’s… okay…”
At this, Lin Xinyuan did not know what to say, feeling a little shy inside.
But it seemed Qin Qingge was indeed not wrong.
Every time she met a child, whether the upstairs neighbor’s or the children of friends she had met last New Year, they all seemed to like her quite a bit…
She did not know why, but those children were happy every time they saw her, which actually made her two good friends Li Tang and Liu Qingyan jealous.
Could this be the so-called special ability after becoming a girl?
Lin Xinyuan could not help thinking strangely like this, then immediately felt speechless at her own train of thought.
Afterward, the men chatted in the Living Room, while the three women prepared to get tonight’s dinner ready.
Before going to the Kitchen, Lin Xinyuan let her daughter play with her younger cousin and Xiao Huang.
The little one was still very smart and sensible, so she was not worried at all…
Meanwhile, Mother Lin was driven over by Xu Hong, who happened to be planning to visit the Qin Family.
After all, the lingerie shop was closed for three days, and Mother Lin did not know where she should go.
A two-day trip back to Hong Kong was too short and unnecessary, and it was even less possible to follow Xu Hong to her home; that would be too improper…
So Lin Xinyuan had her own Mother come over.
Not only did Qin Mother, who was now both an in-law and a friend to Mother Lin, agree very much, but the other members of the Qin Family had no objections either.
The elders all knew the situation in Lin Xinyuan’s family well, and they were all very willing; one more person made things livelier too.
Carrying a few boxes of mooncakes, Xu Hong chatted with Grandpa Qin and the others, teased little Qin Yiyi, who was very happy to see her, and did not stay long, leaving after a short while.
Very soon, around seven o’clock, the Meal was already prepared, and everyone was ready to start eating.
At the dining table, the conversation was lively and animated.
Qin Father sat beside his granddaughter, his face long since free of the stern look he wore at the corporation, leaving only gentleness.
From time to time he would put food in the little one’s bowl, and sometimes he would ask about the child’s life in kindergarten, learning how his granddaughter was doing.
Listening to Qin Yiyi excitedly share her daily life, Qin Father was very patient, nodding as he listened, truly behaving like a kind, good grandfather.
Looking at her Husband’s appearance, Qin Mother could not help shaking her head.
She did not know who it was back when their granddaughter had just been born, pretending to be reserved, yet now he chatted with the little one even better than she did.
Thinking this, she could not help complaining to Mother Lin beside her, which made Mother Lin especially surprised and unable to hold back her laughter.
Qin Qingge fed her child while abandoning the deceit and scheming of the business world, and smilingly exchanged tips and experiences with Lin Xinyuan about caring for children.
Grandpa Qin, meanwhile, drank with his grandson and granddaughter’s husband, discussing recent amusing matters.
As for Xiao Huang, he stayed lying at Xiao Yiyi’s feet, occasionally getting fed by his little master, wagging his tail and eating happily.
A harmonious scene, blooming flowers and a full moon, Qin Family Villa full of laughter and cheerful voices.
With enough wine and food, admiring the moon and drinking tea was surely a wonderful thing.
When everything was over, Lin Xinyuan and the others did not rush to leave, but all planned to stay one night at the Villa first.
The main reason was still Qin Mother and the others’ request.
After all, Grandpa Qin had finally come to Tianbei City, and they hoped he could see his great-granddaughter more…
The family naturally stayed in Qin Nanfeng’s room, while Mother Lin temporarily stayed in the empty room next door; Lin Xinyuan planned to send Mother back tomorrow.
Perhaps staying here overnight was a little uncomfortable for Qin Nanfeng, but at least for Lin Xinyuan, she was still quite happy.
Because it meant she did not have to be terrified of a certain someone…
After taking a bath and lying on the Bed, the room lights had already been turned off, leaving only the Bedside Lamp.
Lin Xinyuan, her black hair spread out, looked past her already sleeping daughter at a certain someone’s unhappy expression across from her and could not help letting out a light laugh. “Pfft…”
Seeing this, a dark light flashed through Qin Nanfeng’s eyes, and then his eyes narrowed, making Lin Xinyuan only then react and instantly cover her mouth.
‘Oh no… That Guy isn’t thinking of going back… and trying some strange games, is he…’
‘No… I can’t…’
‘Feng Ge… I don’t dare anymore…’ To avoid suffering, Lin Xinyuan hurriedly begged with her eyes.
But Qin Nanfeng said nothing to this, only raising an eyebrow, which made Lin Xinyuan’s heart sink further, and her face could not help flushing with embarrassment.
So she could only turn her face away in feigned anger, inwardly complaining about a certain someone nonstop.
Amid this complaining, drowsiness began to spread, her eyelids gradually drooped, and she soon fell asleep.
The Man’s eyes were full of doting affection as he silently helped mother and daughter pull up the Stretcher.
Staring straight at his little wife, whose fair little face was slightly puffed as she slept soundly, a smile lingered at the corners of his mouth, and at some unknown point he slowly closed his eyes.
Outside in the garden, insects chirped softly, and the family slept in each other’s embrace…
