She knew her mother was great, but she didn’t realize how protective her mother would be. Suddenly, she felt like she was about to float away, but she tried hard not to laugh out loud from excitent, afraid that her mother might make fun of her.
When they got ho, Qin Mu had just lifted her out of the car when she dashed towards the house. Watching her, Qin Mu couldn’t help but mutter, "What’s that attitude? Not even thanking Mom?"
"Grandma!"
As Huanhuan entered the house and saw her grandmother sitting on the sofa, she imdiately ran over to her, calling out as if she missed her and couldn’t wait.
"Oh, Huanhuan is back from school, huh! Is our Huanhuan feeling shy?"
Feng Fanghua cupped her granddaughter’s face, surprised to see her cheeks puffed up red.
Huanhuan pulled away her hand and burrowed into her embrace.
After Qin Mu entered, she couldn’t help but ask, "What’s gotten into this girl?"
"She’s growing up! Isn’t that right, Grandma’s big darling?"
"Huanhuan is the little darling!"
Huanhuan corrected her grandma with her head held high, then turned to look at her little brother who was sleeping in the stroller.
"Why isn’t brother waking up?"
Huanhuan turned to ask her grandma after looking at her brother.
"That’s because he just fell asleep."
Feng Fanghua had been holding him all afternoon and had just put him down a few minutes ago, her shoulders still aching.
"Mom, you didn’t hold him all day at ho, did you?"
Seeing Feng Fanghua massaging her shoulders, Qin Mu sat down next to her and began massaging them as she asked.
"I have nothing else to do, but my shoulders do hurt quite a bit today. Press harder."
Feng Fanghua said, asking Qin Mu to increase the pressure, while Huanhuan knelt beside and began massaging her legs, "Grandma, does it feel good when Huanhuan massages your legs? Should I press harder?"
Feng Fanghua was so moved she was on the verge of tears, this little darling always imitated the adults and was so sweet-talking.
"Truly! Our Huanhuan is so understanding!"
Feng Fanghua remarked emotionally, caressing her little head.
"This afternoon after school, a parent suggested that we have Huanhuan change classes, saying that ever since this girl joined the class, she’s taken over sobody else’s spot."
Upon hearing how sensible Huanhuan was, Qin Mu wondered if she was causing trouble at school and the teachers were keeping it from the parents.
"What’s the reasoning behind this? Which parent? I’ll go have a word with them tomorrow. Huanhuan has just gotten used to her new environnt, why should we change classes? If they want to switch, let them switch. Wherever they like."
Qin Mu laughed upon hearing what Feng Fanghua said, finding it amusing how similar their temperants were. Even their reactions were identical, both so protective.
Qin Mu thought carefully, in their family, the most rational one about Huanhuan’s matters, could it be Mu Yi?
Considering Mu Yi’s reaction whenever Huanhuan went to their bed, Qin Mu thought, maybe Mu Yi should take care of such trivial matters?
"Tomorrow I’ll pick her up with your dad, you don’t have to go."
Feng Fanghua worried that Qin Mu looked too gentle-faced, which might be why other people bullied her daughter and granddaughter, so she imdiately stopped Qin Mu from going to pick up Huanhuan.
"Mom, I think it’s probably nothing. What if Yichen takes care of it?"
"Him? He’s good at business deals, but not good at anything else."
Feng Fanghua said, shaking her head.
Mu Yichen had just returned ho and heard his wife and mother discussing him. As he approached, he asked curiously, "What are you saying I can’t do?"
"Talking about soone wanting your daughter to change classes, your wife suggested you figure out a solution. Can you handle it?"
"Just today I donated a library to the school, and even wrote Huanhuan’s na as the donor."
Mu Yichen ntioned another matter, ignoring the first topic.
The implication was, if the school didn’t play nice, they could forget about the donation!
He sat across from the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law duo, looking at the little girl massaging her grandma’s legs, then glanced at his wife: "Did the teacher say anything?"
"No! But why did you donate a library?"
Does Mu Yi really treat money like paper?
"It’s good to donate money to the school."
Feng Fanghua was quite pleased with her son’s actions.
Qin Mu felt...
It was utterly ridiculous!
So much money and nowhere to spend it?
She thought about her sizeable bank debt, while her husband casually donated a fortune outside.
"Oh!"
But she couldn’t argue with her mother-in-law, so she just nodded in agreent.
Mu Yichen saw Qin Mu’s reluctant expression and a smirk curled up on his lips: Was Mrs. Mu unhappy?
