Because Xia Chuyi and the others ca back from the United States, they needed to get over the jet lag.
So the people at ho didn’t stay long; once they saw how tired the three of them were, they all left.
After everyone left, little Huo Shiwu very seriously took a stack of red envelopes out of his own tiny pocket.
"This is the money Shiwu earned for als. Mommy, please take it." Little Huo Shiwu solemnly handed the red envelopes to Xia Chuyi.
Hearing that, Xia Chuyi couldn’t help reaching out to pinch her son and said, "Thank you, son. Our little Shiwu is amazing, you can make money all by yourself now."
Ever since last ti when Xia Chuyi jokingly said she was working so hard to earn money to buy formula for her son—
Little Huo Shiwu had beco "addicted" to earning formula money for himself.
Seeing her son like this, Xia Chuyi found it both funny and touching.
As for his mother’s praise, Huo Shiwu was very receptive to it in his heart.
It was just that his mom loved to pinch his face all the ti, and Huo Shiwu was very displeased with that.
But considering that she was his mom, Huo Shiwu decided magnanimously not to hold it against her.
"Mm." Huo Shiwu kept a straight little face and nodded. "I’ll earn even more in the future."
Hearing this, Xia Chuyi almost couldn’t hold back a burst of laughter.
"Mm, our Shiwu is great." Xia Chuyi also kept a straight face and nodded. "But son, let’s sleep first and fix our jet lag, and then we’ll think about making money later, okay?"
As a well-behaved little boy, Huo Shiwu of course obediently nodded, then waved at his own father and said, "Daddy, let’s go to sleep."
Seeing this, Xia Chuyi felt a little sour inside.
Oh man, this son of hers really does like his dad more.
Huo Shiqian saw his wife’s reaction and couldn’t help but shake his head. Then, with one arm he picked up his son, and with the other he put around his wife, and they went back to their room.
When it ca to his wife’s and son’s tempers, Huo Shiqian knew them best.
If they wanted to sulk at each other, let them.
Anyway, they were always going to be one sweet, loving family.
Once they got over the jet lag and adjusted their schedules, Huo Shiqian and Xia Chuyi both threw themselves back into their work.
When Daddy went back to the army and Mommy went to the shop, little Huo Shiwu stayed for the ti being at the Ou Family’s place, looked after by Mrs. Ou.
"Once upon a ti there was a little rabbit, ho all alone..." Mrs. Ou held a children’s storybook that Xia Chuyi had bought abroad and was reading it to Huo Shiwu.
Of course, the English text inside had long since been translated into Chinese.
Huo Shiwu really wasn’t interested in these fairy tales.
Just then, the Ou Family’s nanny brought over a plate of fruit and said, "These were specially mailed from City G by Second Young Master for you and Young Master Shiwu, Madam. He said they’re very valuable."
Little Huo Shiwu wasn’t interested in the fruit, but when he heard "valuable," he couldn’t help glancing at it.
Seeing this, Mrs. Ou thought Huo Shiwu wanted to eat it.
So Mrs. Ou put down the book, picked up a piece of fruit, and handed it to her well-behaved grandson. "Shiwu, have so of the fruit your uncle bought specially for us with the money he earned."
Hearing what Mrs. Ou said, Huo Shiwu didn’t open his mouth to eat the fruit. Instead, he tilted his little head and thought for a mont, then said, "Grandma, is Second Uncle really good at making money?"
Mrs. Ou smiled gently and said, "More or less. Your Second Uncle doesn’t have much in the way of other skills, but he does have a bit of talent when it cos to making money."
Hearing this, Huo Shiwu’s eyes lit up. "Grandma, then how does Second Uncle make money?"
