Li Caixia decided to temporarily trust her husband and observe the third family’s situation carefully during this ti.
In the evening, Lin Juan brought Dongbao over again, wanting Xu Mumu to teach him as well.
Xu Mumu agreed with a smile. Fortunately, the kids had books over here, so Xu Mumu started teaching them English alphabets. This didn’t require any English foundation.
Just looking at Dongbao stumbling and unwilling to follow along, Xu Mumu calmly observed without saying much. Compared to Xu Jiaojiao and the others, Dongbao really had no self-awareness in studying.
After explaining a bit, Xu Mumu stopped and let Dongbao review on his own.
Seeing that the big sister stopped teaching, Dongbao imdiately ran to the yard to play, happily playing with marbles by himself.
"Mumu, why did you stop teaching Dongbao? Dongbao is your brother too." Lin Juan saw her son running off to play.
"Third Aunt, the big sister taught quite a lot. If Dongbao didn’t rember, it wouldn’t matter. Instead of keeping an eye on the big sister, you should watch Dongbao and make sure he reviews what the big sister taught." Xu Jiao looked at her third aunt with dissatisfaction.
Lin Juan awkwardly left, then went to collect her son’s marbles and wouldn’t let him play anymore. She took him back to the room to read.
As for whether Dongbao would seriously read, Xu Mumu and the others didn’t know. If Dongbao could really buckle down and study, teaching one more person was nothing. She wouldn’t be teaching for many days anyway. If Dongbao wasn’t willing to learn, she was happy to have it easy.
Xu Mumu wasn’t upset about it, but then Yin Yang started to get angry, feeling that the third aunt was being too much.
"Alright, don’t be mad. It’s just teaching soone. It doesn’t take much ti each day. I don’t even know if he can digest what I teach." Xu Mumu said with a smile, soothing Yin Yang’s mood.
"I just think it’s not worth it for you. You don’t owe them anything." Yin Yang said helplessly, even considering causing so trouble for the third family.
"Okay, don’t be mad. They won’t be here for long anyway. How about we go out together tomorrow?" Xu Mumu said softly.
"You said it." Yin Yang’s eyes lit up, and he wasn’t angry anymore. These people weren’t worth it; he definitely wanted to go out alone with Xu Mumu. But with so many people from the old Xu family coming over, as the host, he naturally had to keep an eye on things.
"Yeah, tomorrow I’ll have my brother take Jiaojiao and the others out to play." Xu Mumu said with a smile.
After dinner, Yin Yang reluctantly went back. The little courtyard was bustling with so many people from the old Xu family gathering together.
The sound of kids echoed in the yard, occasionally followed by bursts of laughter.
With Xu Minghui watching over them, even Dongbao could be watched. The kid seed to have blended in, chatting happily.
The next morning, Xu Mumu told her mother about her plans.
Li Caixia was eager for Xu Mumu to go out and have fun. Why teach those kids at ho? She especially didn’t want Xu Mumu to teach Dongbao.
Before leaving, Xu Mumu gave the kids assignnts and would check them when she got back. As for Dongbao, she just told him to review what she taught yesterday. If he didn’t understand, he could just ask Xu Jiaojiao and the others.
With the abilities of Xu Jiaojiao and the others, teaching Dongbao was not an issue at all.
Xu Mumu changed into new clothes and went out with Yin Yang.
Shortly after the two left, Xu Xue also went out, naturally going to find Huo Qingze.
The first stop for Xu Mumu and Yin Yang was the cinema. Yin Yang, feeling generous, even booked a private viewing for just the two of them.
Xu Mumu’s mouth twitched, not at all moved by the gesture.
"Now no one can disturb us." Yin Yang said, very satisfied. The room had just the two of them. He held the snacks he bought for Xu Mumu as the movie started.
"What, are you planning sothing in the cinema?" Xu Mumu rolled her eyes and started shelling sunflower seeds and munching on them.
"Of course I am." Yin Yang curled his lips, suddenly leaned toward Xu Mumu.
A handso face enlarged in front of her, and Xu Mumu felt her breath catch. The closer the face, the more attractive it was. His peach blossom eyes were srizing. This guy was probably a demon in his past life.
Then, he just ate the sunflower seeds she had shelled.
Xu Mumu: "..." She thought he was going to kiss her. She was even considering whether to close her eyes. And that’s it??
Yin Yang’s eyes sparkled with laughter: "Mumu, what were you expecting?"
"None of your business, just watch the movie." She glared at him angrily, her eyes focusing on the movie, deciding not to talk to him for ten minutes. This guy’s temperant was getting worse.
"Mumu, I shelled so sunflower seeds for you, to make it up to you." A few minutes later, Yin Yang placed a small handful of shelled seeds in front of Xu Mumu.
"Only this little? How stingy." Xu Mumu decided to forgive him considering the sunflower seeds. Shelling them was quite a hassle.
"I’ll shell all of these for you to eat." Yin Yang wasn’t annoyed, smiling gently.
With Yin Yang shelling the seeds, Xu Mumu enjoyed herself shalessly. However, she didn’t forget about him and each ti fed him half of the seeds she ate.
After a movie, despite Yin Yang occasionally having little moves, Xu Mumu was quite satisfied.
"Where are we going next?" Xu Mumu asked excitedly, looking at Yin Yang. It had been a long ti since they went out on a date alone, and her mood was a bit exhilarated.
"Let’s go back to get so hot water first, and then head to the new park." Yin Yang said with a smile. By then the sun was up, and it wasn’t as cold, but the hot water bottle in his hand had cooled down.
"Okay." Xu Mumu agreed readily, still hugging the hot water bottle despite it not being that cold.
Yin Yang took her directly to his yard, where there was a kettle to pour hot water into the bottle.
The hot water bottles were made by Madam Chen at Xu Mumu’s request. She and her siblings all had one, with a rubber bag inside and rabbit fur outside. Madam Chen had brought the rabbit fur from back ho, where there were plenty of wild rabbits. Although they sold so, they also ate so.
They ate the at, and the hides were left. Xu Po gave them to Madam Chen to make gloves, scarves, or even stitch a few together to line a coat.
Worried her brother might catch a cold, Xu Mumu suggested making hot water bottles. The rabbit fur was used for them.
The rubber bags were specially ordered from a plastic factory by Zhou Yunhong, thicker and very practical.
Seeing their benefits, Madam Chen made one for everyone in the family to hug when cold.
