Chapter 186: Loves Mom

The glutinous rice cake was delicious, and she had already eaten many pieces without any hesitation.

Hu Yao chuckled, the Zhong Jinghuai mentioned by Sun Qinshu sounded like a different person.

“He wasn’t like this before, he cares about you,” Hu Yao found it a bit funny. With Sun Qinshu leading the way, even recalling the past with Zhong Jinghuai didn’t feel like something “unmentionable.”

It’s common for people’s destinies to not end up together. Both Hu Yao and Zhong Jinghuai were not extreme people.

“Wasn’t he like this when you were dating him?” Du Ximei was curious. After knowing Sun Qinshu’s identity and seeing her chat with Hu Yao so openly, she felt comfortable asking gossip questions.

Could it be that men are all one way before marriage and another way after marriage?

“I never dated him,” Sun Qinshu pouted.

Their families were old friends, and both parents wanted to match them up. They naturally got married.

But Sun Qinshu and Zhong Jinghuai weren’t really familiar. When she was young, she liked to follow him around, but as girls grow up, they know to avoid him, and their relationship became distant. They only greeted each other politely when they met.

After marriage, he was like an older brother, taking care of her. To Sun Qinshu, it felt like she was just living in a different home.

She thought he still treated her like a sister. They had been married for so long, and besides their wedding night, he never touched her! He probably still liked Hu Yao, so when he saw that invitation, she insisted on coming with him, just to see what Hu Yao was like.

She was really much prettier! And so gentle! No wonder he liked her so much! He must have compared them and felt that she was capricious and not good enough. He married her just to appease his family.

“Amei, how can you make a man have children with you?” After Hu Yao carried the soft and cute Jiang Fuheng back to the room to change his diaper, Sun Qinshu asked softly.

Du Ximei choked on a mouthful of water and coughed repeatedly.

“Are you okay!” Sun Qinshu realized what she had said and patted her back gently, her face flushed.

How could she say such a thing in public! Did anyone else hear it? So embarrassing!

Sun Qinshu looked around nervously, seeing that only the two of them were there, she slowly calmed down.

“Cough, well, I don’t know how to tell you.” Du Ximei paused, speechless. Finally, seeing Sun Qinshu’s embarrassed look, she couldn’t help but gossip: “Your husband doesn’t want to have children with you?”

As soon as she said it, Du Ximei felt it was inappropriate. Who asks that? It was strange, she had only known Sun Qinshu for a while, and they were already talking about this.

“He doesn’t want to, he probably still likes Ayao.” Sun Qinshu pursed her lips.

“Ai Yuan.” Zhong Jinghuai came over, hearing her last sentence, his brow furrowed slightly.

“I’ll go to my sister for a while.” Du Ximei got up wisely.

Before she walked far, Zhong Jinghuai’s helpless yet tolerant voice faintly came over.

“Don’t overthink things… If I still liked her, I wouldn’t have married you.”

“You’re no worse than anyone else, you’re great…”

Du Ximei paused, but she couldn’t help but eavesdrop for a little longer.

“Wife!”

Song Sikai came over with a steaming chicken leg, calling out to her in a loud voice.

“Just cooked, hungry?”

Du Ximei turned her head to look at him, before she could speak, the big chicken leg was already stuffed into her hand. She took it and took a bite, following him, forgetting about the gossip.

“How long until the feast starts? What dishes are there today?”

“Brother Han invited the chef from that sour cabbage fish restaurant you and your sister love, there will be fish later.”

They chatted about trivial everyday matters.

…

On the other side.

“Tang Haofei, are you annoying!”

Qiu Yingwen was annoyed by Tang Haofei who followed her all day. She had said it countless times, but he was just being stubborn.

“Just forget about the past! Don’t hang around me anymore! Are you bored?” Qiu Yingwen was impatient.

“I’m bored, Wenwen. You said the past is over, now is now! I was a jerk before, but I’m changing now, I’m very obedient, give me a chance!” He was persistent, his playful words also carrying sincerity.

Thinking of Lu Juntao who had come all the way to find her recently, Tang Haofei’s eyes narrowed, that bastard! That damned hypocritical monster!

If he hadn’t interfered, he would have found Qiu Yingwen long ago! Qiu Yingwen would have found him long ago! Why did he only find out about his daughter when his sister was so big?

“Get lost!” Qiu Yingwen felt like her mouth was dry.

She turned her face, strode past the crowd, and walked back to the inner room: “Don’t follow me!”

“What do you mean follow you? Brother Han has been here so many times, working hard, can’t I have a sip of water?” Tang Haofei seemed oblivious to her cold attitude, following behind her leisurely.

She had been busy all morning, she was really thirsty. Qiu Yingwen was really going to find some water.

“The water isn’t ready yet, have some of my juice.” Hu Yao smiled, handing her the juice. There were too many people, and they had boiled water pot after pot.

Jiang Xiaochao and the other little ones had been playing all morning, and the adults had wine to drink. Jiang Han was generous and bought them juice.

Before the feast started, Jiang Xiaochao and the others started drinking. One kid even brought a cup to Hu Yao, saying that Jiang Xiaochao asked him to give it to her. She hadn’t had a chance to drink it yet.

Qiu Yingwen didn’t stand on ceremony with her, naturally taking the juice and drinking it.

“The meal will be ready soon, have a seat.” Hu Yao saw that she had been busy for a long time, and quickly asked her to sit down and rest.

Jiang Han had invited people to cook, but the village women were happy to help with these things. They didn’t just sit there waiting to eat, they all gathered together chatting, picking vegetables, washing vegetables, and helping out. Qiu Yingwen, like Hu Xiujie, couldn’t stay idle and went to help.

With more people, the work was faster.

The dishes were all prepared in advance, and it was almost time for the banquet.

Jiang Xiaochao had been playing crazy all day, running around with his little friends. Hu Yao had been listening to his soft, childish voice talking to people all morning.

He loved his little calf and puppy very much. Several of Jiang Han’s brothers jokingly said they were going to eat his calf, and he angrily said no, and even imitated Jiang Han’s way of speaking, saying whoever ate his calf would be tied up and made to be his calf.

Everyone was amused by this.

At this moment, he was in the courtyard with Qiu Yarong, accusing Qin Siyuan.

Hu Xiujie had brought Qin Siyuan along today.

Jiang Xiaochao had already told Qiu Yarong about Qin Siyuan.

The two little ones said that he actually bullied his mother, and they wouldn’t play with such a kid. In the eyes of Jiang Xiaochao and Qiu Yarong, their mother was the most important, and Qin Siyuan’s actions towards Hu Xiujie were simply unacceptable.

Qiu Yarong, quite strangely, asked Hu Xiujie in front of Qin Siyuan why she hadn’t thrown him away yet.

“Kids who hate their moms are not their moms’ kids! Pretty Auntie is someone Yaoyao and Chaochao both like, I’m a girl and Mom likes me too, and I love Mom very much.” She said seriously.

Qin Siyuan had been feeling frustrated all morning from being ostracized, and seeing that Hu Xiujie didn’t say anything, he felt both anxious and wronged. He couldn’t hold it in any longer, and with a tight lip, he pushed Qiu Yarong, who Hu Xiujie always threw away, to the ground.

Tang Haofei saw this, his face darkened, and he strode over.
