"Hello, I’m Yin Shixiu. You can call brother-in-law or brother."
"Mmm... Sister Xiaong seems to call you uncle..."
Su Xiaong quickly glared at Su Jin, her face turned red in an instant.
"Do you think I really look that old, like I’m at an uncle’s level?"
Su Jin laughed, "Brother-in-law doesn’t look old at all."
Yin Shixiu was slightly satisfied, took Su Xiaong’s suitcase in one hand, and tried to take Su Jin’s suitcase with the other hand.
"No need, brother-in-law, I can push it myself, it’s not heavy."
Su Jin quickly said.
"Alright, then you push it, be careful."
"Mm."
Su Jin pushed the suitcase following behind Yin Shixiu and Xiaong, as usual following the person leading the way, without looking around.
It was her first ti in Beijing, but she didn’t have too many marvels about this bustling tropolis.
She only felt that there wasn’t much difference between this airport and the Chengdu airport.
The only noticeable difference for Su Jin was that Beijing airport seed to have a much larger flow of people than Chengdu airport, making it seem a bit crowded and noisier.
Yin Shixiu noticed the swelling under Su Xiaong’s hair on her forehead after getting in the car.
"What happened to your head?"
Su Xiaong being hit by a teacup by Zhou Wenxiu was sothing she didn’t tell him, afraid of upsetting him.
"Carelessly—"
"Zhou Wenxiu hit her with a teacup."
Seeing how Su Xiaong looked, Su Jin knew she wasn’t going to tell the truth, so she spoke up first.
Su Xiaong held her forehead, thinking her little sister spoke too quickly.
She didn’t want to say it as explaining it would be a hassle... There was a whole long story to say, and honestly, she didn’t want to bring up the Su Jianyi family again.
Yin Shixiu glanced at her without speaking.
Su Xiaong felt a buzz in her head, instinctively sensing sothing was wrong.
She didn’t dare make a sound afterward and stayed quietly in the car until they arrived ho.
They got ho at four.
Ah Su knew Xiaong was coming ho today, so she picked up Shuangshuang and Huang Huang from their grandparents’ place.
"Fourth Young Master, Young Madam."
"Ah Su, you’re here!"
Xiaong exclaid with surprise, knowing Ah Su’s presence ant her long unseen daughter and son were also here.
But before she could get into the room to see the children, Yin Shixiu pulled her by the collar.
"Wait a minute."
Su Xiaong was stunned for a mont.
Yin Shixiu carried the suitcase inside, asked Ah Su to get a pair of slippers for Su Jin, and then led her to the sofa to sit down.
He brushed aside her hair, looking at the swollen and bruised bump.
His gaze was steady and intense, staring at her bump without saying a word, making Su Xiaong feel uneasy.
"Did you get it treated at the hospital?"
After a long while, Yin Shixiu finally asked.
"Huh? It’s just a little bump, it’s fine, if you rub an egg on it for a few days, it will definitely go down, don’t worry."
Yin Shixiu looked down at her, gave her a flick on the bump, quite mischievously.
"Ah! It hurts!"
Su Xiaong quickly covered her forehead, glaring at him.
"I thought you didn’t feel any pain."
Yin Shixiu sarcastically said, then got up and went to the storage room.
Xiaong felt indignant inside, what kind of man is this!
He applied so swelling and bruise ointnt for her.
Xiaong saw his careful and gentle approach when applying the ointnt with a cotton swab on her bump... it was very tender.
She couldn’t help but lower her eyebrows and mutter, "That Zhou Wenxiu is just a madwoman... It wasn’t who provoked her first, it was her—"
"Alright, go see Shuangshuang and Huang Huang."
Yin Shixiu put away the ointnt on the coffee table and told her.
Xiaong lifted her eyes, sneaked a glance at Yin Shixiu, and cautiously asked, "Are you... angry?"
"What’s there to be angry about? It’s good for you to suffer a bit and learn a lesson."
After he finished speaking, Yin Shixiu turned to Su Jin, sitting to the side, "If you want sothing to drink, let Ah Su get it for you, or you can choose sothing from the fridge yourself, I’m going to change my clothes."
"Oh, okay."
With that, Yin Shixiu went into the bedroom.
Su Jin looked at Su Xiaong and quietly asked, "Brother-in-law, is he really angry?"
Xiaong propped up her head, "I don’t know if he’s angry, but he’s definitely upset... That’s why I hate the Su Jianyi family, sigh!"
Su Jin touched her nose, watching Xiaong like this, she found it quite refreshing.
"Do you want to co in and see my daughter and son?"
Su Jin nodded, didn’t even drink water, and followed Xiaong into the nursery.
Both Shuangshuang and Huang Huang were sleeping.
Xiaong quietly led Su Jin to the edge of the crib near the door, proudly pointing to the little one in pink clothes and said to Su Jin, "My daughter, her nickna is Shuangshuang, her full na is Jinxi."
Su Jin leaned her head closer to look, only to see the little one waking up, those bright black eyes looking at them, and when the little one’s gaze landed on Su Xiaong, it noticeably brightened a bit more.
Imdiately, she murmured, "Mom..."
Xiaong saw her little one waking up, hurriedly smiling and picked her up, "Shuangshuang darling, mommy’s back, did you miss mommy?"
Xiaong kissed the little one’s head.
Su Jin stood nearby, so she could clearly see the little one’s expression. The face that seed sowhat wooden while lying in the crib suddenly showed expression upon seeing Su Xiaong.
There was joy in the big eyes, excitent, and a deep sense of dependence.
But when Xiao ng called out "Shuangshuang baby," the little one’s expression visibly froze for a mont.
"Mom... Shuangshuang... that..."
The little one’s expression returned to being wooden, staring at Su Xiaong, pointing a finger at the crib beside them, and calmly said.
"What? What does Shuangshuang want?"
Su Xiaong didn’t react for a mont.
"Shuang... Shuangshuang... that... that... that one..."
"Which one?"
Prince Huang beca anxious at this point, squirming restlessly in Su Xiaong’s arms, very aggrieved that Su Xiaong mixed him up with Shuangshuang!
Su Jin realized when she noticed the little thing below Prince Huang’s open-crotch pants—
"Sister, this... seems to be your son, not your daughter..."
Su Xiaong was taken aback for a mont. Looking down, she realized it was true!
Looking back up, she t eyes with Prince Huang’s furrowed brows, his face showing no expression, looking sowhat awkwardly at Su Xiaong...
As if he felt wronged.
Even though Su Jin had never taken care of children, just seeing Prince Huang’s current expression, she could imagine what this little guy was thinking...
She watched Su Xiaong with curiosity about how she would console the child.
Who would have thought...
"Mom knows you’re Huanghuang, Mom is just playing with you!"
Huang Huang seed to understand Su Xiaong’s aning but was sowhat skeptical...
"That’s Shuangshuang, Mom recognized her at a glance."
Su Xiaong, with a straight face and steady heart, coaxed her child, while Su Jin watched from the side...
"Mom..."
Huang Huang’s eyes shifted as if losing interest in the matter, reaching out to wrap his arms around Su Xiaong’s neck, and proactively went up to kiss Xiaong.
"I’m good, Shuang... Shuang she, she’s not!"
"Shuang... Shuang..." Prince Huang babbled a string of words, no one could understand, except for the word Shuangshuang, and then...
"Noisy... annoying..."
With a disdainful expression and a waving gesture...
The aning was probably that, when Mom was not around, he was very good, but Shuangshuang was not. She was noisy and annoying.
Su Xiaong didn’t know how these siblings interacted, and upon her return, Prince Huang imdiately started to complain to her.
He was just over one year old, and already starting to complain...
"Uh..."
Apparently hearing the noise from this side, Shuangshuang also woke up.
As soon as she woke up, it was a big deal. Seeing Xiaong, who had returned at so unknown ti, and also seeing Xiaong holding Prince Huang, looking very intimate...
She imdiately broke down, wailing loudly.
Su Xiaong was startled, and Yin Shixiu, just finished changing his clothes, heard the child’s crying coming from the nursery, feeling a headache...
He walked in, and Su Xiaong turned around, looking at Yin Shixiu for help.
Yin Shixiu stepped forward to pick up the heartbrokenly crying Shuangshuang, "Dad holds, Daddy holds, Shuang’er don’t cry, don’t cry..."
"Woo hoo ah... ah... woo hoo hoo..."
The more Yin Shixiu consoled, the harder Shuangshuang cried, while Prince Huang clung to Su Xiaong’s shoulder, calmly watching Shuangshuang...
Su Jin listened to Shuangshuang’s piercing cries, her mind buzzing.
She only felt that quiet children were much better than noisy ones.
"Why is she crying so badly?"
Even Yin Shixiu was a bit dumbfounded.
Su Xiaong also looked bewildered...
Who would have thought that these two siblings already had a serious "sibling rivalry" ntality.
"Shuang’er, why are you crying?"
"Mom... Mom hold ... woo woo woo..."
Shuangshuang’s crying was heart-wrenching, and it turned out... it was a matter of sibling rivalry.
Upon hearing Shuangshuang’s cry, Su Xiaong hastily said to Prince Huang, "Mom also wants to hold sister, sister is crying too sadly. Okay?"
Prince Huang, without fussing, assud an "I understand" look, nodding, "Oh!"
Su Xiaong quickly swapped with Yin Shixiu.
And then the brain-bursting cries slowly quieted down.
Su Jin inexplicably let out a sigh of relief.
Raising kids... isn’t easy.
At dinner, Shuangshuang and Huanghuang sat in their high baby chairs, each holding a small silver spoon, waiting for their al with a small silver bowl.
Shuangshuang, forgetting her previous crying in an instant, was now bursting with inexplicable joy.
With a small silver spoon tightly clutched in her hand, she was tapping on the small table, "Food! Food!"
Prince Huang just leaned there, with a sidelong glance, staring motionlessly at Shuangshuang...
Su Jin saw Prince Huang’s expression and almost spat out the water she had just drunk!
That expression seed like he thought Shuangshuang was crazy...
Little ng had only been gone a few days, and upon returning, she found the siblings’ relationship had changed significantly.
So competitive! So combative!
Take eating for example, Ah Su served Prince Huang a small bowl of green bean and barley congee, boiled very thinly, like soup.
Huanghuang wasn’t picky about food and ate a lot.
