Looking at the enchanting and delicate face of the woman in front of him, Qin Hao was momentarily lost: "You’re welcome."
Two soft, childish voices came through. Xu Niannian felt like her knees were going to give out, almost kneeling, but Qin Hao quickly steadied her.
Xiao Bao and Da Bao clung to Xu Niannian’s legs on either side.
Upon seeing this, Jin Yu almost twisted his ankle. The two silly sons quickened their pace as they hurried over.
After steadying herself, Xu Niannian let go of Qin Hao’s hand.
The two little heads hugging Xu Niannian looked up at Qin Hao in unison.
The four or five-year-old kids were adorably fair-skinned. Qin Hao’s gaze settled on Xiao Bao’s face, his eyes flickering: "Who are they?"
The voices spoke in unison. Jin Yu stepped forward, placing a hand on Xu Niannian’s shoulder.
"What are you doing here?" Xu Niannian was surprised. Didn’t he say he had something to do today and couldn’t come pick her up?
"Why, can’t I be here?" Jin Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
The familiar domineering air made Xu Niannian roll her eyes. She pushed his hand away and said to Qin Hao, "Teacher, I’m going now, goodbye."
Xu Niannian had no intention of introducing Jin Yu to Qin Hao.
"Goodbye," Qin Hao said indifferently, watching the back of Xu Niannian and her family of four fade away.
Oh, if only we had met before you were married.
"What were you doing just now? Didn’t you see my teacher there?"
Getting into the car, she tossed the two kids into the backseat and twisted Jin Yu’s ear forward.
"The kids are watching!" Jin Yu tilted his head, grinning.
"Mom, we didn’t see anything."
Xiao Bao and Da Bao said in unison, making Xu Niannian burst into laughter: "You hear that? The kids didn’t see... ugh!"
Jin Yu quickly covered her mouth: "Honey, don’t throw up."
At this angle, if she vomited, it would land on his face.
Xu Niannian caught her breath, giving him a reproachful look.
Jin Yu quickly handed her water: "Drink some water."
After taking a few sips, Xu Niannian felt slightly better.
"What’s the matter?" Jin Yu asked her, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Xu Niannian remembered something: she hadn’t had her period in two months.
"Jin Yu, I think I might be pregnant!"
"Pregnant?" Jin Yu was puzzled: "Pregnant with what?"
This idiot! Xu Niannian was driven mad. She whispered in his ear, "I think I might be pregnant!"
Jin Yu blinked, looked at Xu Niannian, "Let’s go to the hospital."
At the hospital, after a round of examinations, it was confirmed that Xu Niannian was two months pregnant.
At the same time, Xu Sisi was also found to be pregnant, her baby being a month younger than Xu Niannian’s.
The Jin family entered another frenzy of preparation for childbirth. Ye Qin and Wu Lan wished they could feed Xu Niannian and her sister until they were plump.
Wu Lan felt guilty for not being there during Xu Niannian’s previous pregnancy and childbirth and was determined to treat her well this time.
The days passed by one by one, and finally the day of delivery arrived.
Xu Niannian gave birth before Xu Sisi, delivering normally on her due date while the whole family waited outside.
Xu Sisi, hearing Xu Niannian’s painful cries from the delivery room, was so frightened that her water broke, causing the child to be born a month early.
The situation also scared Jin Ruiyang, who was ready to console a crying child, but Xu Sisi’s child was born within half an hour, while Xu Niannian was still in labor.
Xu Sisi had a son, and Xu Niannian gave birth an hour later.
When the child was brought out, Jin Yu didn’t have a chance to see. Wu Lan held her granddaughter, while Xiao Bao and Da Bao looked at the wrinkled red little thing and blurted out, "So ugly."
Originally, Xu Sisi’s baby was supposed to be younger, but now, the little one turned from a younger brother into an older brother.
Xu Sisi’s child was named Jin Wenxi, and like Xiao Bao and Da Bao, he was a hyperactive kid.
Xu Niannian’s daughter was named Jin Mianmian, and she resembled Xu Niannian quite a bit.
Within a month, the little one transformed from an ugly thing into an adorable darling loved by everyone.
Xiao Bao and Da Bao always competed to hold their sister.
When Mianmian turned two, it was obvious she looked mostly like Xu Niannian. Wu Lan even commented that she would grow up to be a little beauty.
Mianmian brought Xu Niannian a different experience in child-rearing. Xiao Bao and Da Bao had been very well-behaved and didn’t cry much.
But Mianmian was like a little delicate doll, always crying. Her cries were soft and tender, making one’s heart ache.
Jin Yu doted on his daughter because she looked most like Xu Niannian, always feeling like he was raising a miniature version of Xu Niannian.
It is said that a child’s personality can be seen from an early age, meaning you can see a child’s character from their early years.
Mianmian didn’t like to speak, even at two years old, but she was very obedient.
The little girl wasn’t steady on her feet; even at two, she often fell, always tripping over flat surfaces, landing completely on the ground, from face to heels.
This worried Xu Niannian and Jin Yu to no end, so they cherished their little daughter even more.
Xiao Bao and Da Bao: one was a troublemaker, the other a black-hearted lotus, but they shared a common trait; they were not easily bullied. Official source is novel·fiɾe·net
Mianmian was different, foolishly naïve, like a little fool.
Once, Da Bao broke something and, fearing Xu Niannian and Jin Yu’s punishment, thought they wouldn’t bear to berate Mianmian, so he pushed her to take the blame.
That was a rotating music box Jin Yu had given Xu Niannian, a precious wedding anniversary gift.
Mianmian, pushed to take the blame, cried until her eyes were red, sniffling. Xu Niannian asked if it was her who broke it.
Mianmian hesitated for a few minutes, sniffled as she said, "Mianmian, Mianmian broke it."
Then she slowly hugged her head and squatted on the floor: "Mommy, don’t eat Mianmian, Mianmian doesn’t taste good."
Xu Niannian was caught between laughter and tears. If Xiao Bao hadn’t exposed that Da Bao was the culprit, she would have believed Mianmian broke it.
Upon further inquiry, it was revealed that Da Bao had tricked Mianmian, telling her if she didn’t admit to breaking it, Mommy would cook her into marshmallows to eat.
He said mommy named her Mianmian because one day she would be eaten as marshmallows.
Upon discovering the truth, Jin Yu chased Da Bao from one end of the street to the other.
Of course, the outcome was that Da Bao got a good beating, and it was quite harsh.
