Cai Shuqin's reaction was very subtle.
Aunt Zhang was stunned. She opened her mouth to say something, but no sound came out for a long time.
The little girl was also stunned. She stared blankly as Cai Shuqin took the baby away from her.
After Cai Shuqin walked into the room, the little girl burrowed into Aunt Zhang's arms and buried her head deep into Aunt Zhang's body.
At this moment, Chen Xi gently patted the back of the little girl's hand and said to Aunt Zhang with a smile, "We came uninvited. Sorry for the trouble."
"No trouble at all. I'm happy to see this little guy. But you, sigh … Please don't mind … "
Of course, Chen Xi knew what Aunt Zhang meant, so he shook his head to show that he didn't mind.
"Pinglin, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and get Chen Xi a glass of water. "
"Oh, oh, okay."
After hearing Aunt Zhang's words, Xie Pinglin seemed to come back to his senses and hurriedly ran into the kitchen to get some water.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang whispered to Chen Xi, "Don't be like my son. He's not manly at all. His ears are especially soft. In our words, it's — raking ears!"
Hearing this, Chen Xi smiled and replied, "I don't think so. It's a good thing for a man to be in front of a woman. I don't know if you've heard of the saying, 'Deep love doesn't last long. A modest gentleman is as gentle as jade. '"
"Sigh, how can an old woman like me know as much as you young people? Anyway, Pinglin is too raking! He's not manly at all. He's always being ordered around by his wife. It's annoying to see him. "
"The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a big problem in the world. Don't take it to heart. Young people should have their own habits. You're an elder, so you should understand … "
"I don't understand, I don't understand …"
Chen Xi's words made Aunt Zhang shake her head, so Chen Xi wisely chose to shut up.
At this moment, Xie Pinglin brought the water over.
He politely handed the cup to Chen Xi, then said awkwardly, "I'll go in and help Shuqin tidy up the room. You guys take a seat first."
"Sorry for the trouble."
"It's fine, it's fine …"
Xie Pinglin waved his hand as he walked into the bedroom. Then, he gently closed the door.
Chen Xi and Aunt Zhang chatted casually. At this moment, he suddenly heard the young couple arguing in a low voice in the room.
Even though his Divine Sense was damaged and he was unable to sense his surroundings, he was still able to sense his surroundings.
However, Chen Xi's ears were also very sharp, so even if they closed the door and spoke very softly, Chen Xi could clearly hear what they were arguing about.
"No matter what, your mother has been working outside for a few years, and it's in Zhong Hai, a big international city. You know how high the salary there is. How much money can an old woman like her use? After working for so many years, he should have saved at least 200,000 yuan, right? And the result? Not to mention that you didn't take a single cent when you came back, it hasn't even been two days and you're already asking someone to stay at your house. What, do you really think this is a hotel? "
"Little Qin! How can you say that? That's my mother! It's our duty to take care of her … "
"Should? What about the one outside? Is that what you should do? "
"She's here to travel. She won't be staying here for more than a few days."
"Don't you need money to eat, drink, and play? If your mother doesn't ask you to take time off to play with them tomorrow, I, Cai Shuqin, will write my name backwards! "
"Shuqin! How can you be like this? They're just playing for a few days. As the host, we should entertain them. How much can this cost you? "
"How much? You've seen the current housing prices in Chengdu. If we don't save money to buy a house, can we still afford it in the future? As a man, your salary is not as high as mine. Your daughter is one year old, and your family has lived in this house for decades. Do you have to live here until your daughter gets married before you're satisfied? "
The more the woman spoke, the louder her voice became. She seemed to be getting more and more agitated.
When Chen Xi heard this, he did not want to listen anymore, so he simply used his vital essence to block his ears.
…
The next morning.
Xie Pinglin was about to leave for work after breakfast.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang called out to him.
"Pinglin, Chen Xi came all the way here. He hasn't been to Chengdu before. Why don't you not go to work today and take the father and daughter to Jinli, Wuhou Temple, Chunxi Road, Qingyang Palace, or something? "
Hearing this, Xie Pinglin's expression immediately turned bitter. When he was hesitating to say something, Cai Shuqin snorted heavily at the side.
"Mother, our company will deduct our salary if we take leave …"
"Let him deduct it. We'll earn it back in the future. Quick, call your boss and ask for leave. Just say that I'm sick and you have to stay at home to take care of me. Will that do? "
"Mother …"
Xie Pinglin was in a difficult position, but he did not dare to reject his mother's request directly.
He turned back to look at Cai Shuqin, only to find that she was already carrying her bag and preparing to go to work.
At this moment, Chen Xi smiled and patted the little girl's head, asking, "Niannian, Daddy will take you to Happy Valley later, okay?"
"Okay!" The little girl held the spoon and smiled sweetly.
Chen Xi then turned to Auntie Zhang and said, "I won't trouble Xie bro, I'll take the child to Happy Valley later. Auntie Zhang, you can't just take care of us, you can't just let two men take a child to an amusement park, right?"
Aunt Zhang thought about it and nodded. She said to Xie Pinglin, "Then you go to work. Come back early in the afternoon and take them to eat hot pot in the evening. This little girl can eat spicy food."
As she said that, Aunt Zhang rubbed the little girl's head.
Hearing this, Xie Pinglin breathed a sigh of relief. After a few polite words with Chen Xi, he ran out of the house as if he had just escaped death.
After breakfast, Chen Xi helped Aunt Zhang clean up and then took the little girl out.
Aunt Zhang originally wanted to accompany the father and daughter to Jinli, but when she thought of taking care of her little granddaughter, she had to give up.
Out of the community, Chen Xi stood on the street with Niannian in his arms.
At this moment, the little girl tilted her head and suddenly said, "Papa, let's go home."
Chen Xi was stunned.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the little girl muttered to herself, "Auntie and uncle don't like me. Grandma likes me, so auntie hates grandma. I don't want auntie to hate grandma …"
Chen Xi stared at the little girl in a daze.
At this moment, he seemed to feel that his daughter seemed to have grown up a lot.
A four year old child was actually able to carefully detect an adult's expression.
"Mwah!"
Chen Xi kissed the little girl's face and said, "We won't go. We'll stay here! Today we'll go to the amusement park, tomorrow we'll climb the mountain, and the day after tomorrow we'll soak in the hot spring. Daddy will take you to a five-star hotel and see the Leshan Buddha, which is taller than the house. Okay? "
"Okay!"
