Tong Qiao turned around and continued to walk upstairs. Her heart was warm. Lu Jinshen respected his elders, was filial to his parents, and treated her well. The main thing was that he occasionally exuded a strong and resolute aura that captivated her. Judging from this, this man was not bad. Perhaps he was someone she could entrust her life to.
Tong Qiao went upstairs and Xia Daiyun came out of the room. "Mom, is An 'an asleep?"
Xia Daiyun nodded and asked casually, "Have you registered your marriage?"
"Not yet."
"Why didn't you register your marriage again?" Xia Daiyun frowned. "Qiao 'er, you can't just let your imagination run wild. An' an is already so old. You …"
"It's not that I don't agree," Tong Qiao interrupted Xia Daiyun. "I was delayed by something."
"What's more important than registering your marriage?" Xia Daiyun was obviously still in disbelief.
Tong Qiao averted her gaze and looked a little unnatural. "It's just that … something happened."
"Qiao 'er." Xia Daiyun held Tong Qiao's hand and said earnestly, "After spending more than half a year together, your dad and I both feel that Jin Shen is a good person. Although he's divorced and has a child, he really dotes on you. He's steady and responsible …"
Tong Qiao held her forehead. "Mom, why don't you believe me? I really was delayed by something."
"Really?"
"Yeah. You go ask Lu Jinshen. I'll go check on An 'an." Tong Qiao did not give Xia Daiyun a chance to speak and flashed into the room.
"This child." Xia Daiyun mumbled and quickly went downstairs. She sat down on the sofa and said, "Jin Shen, Qiao 'er said that you didn't register your marriage?"
"Huh?" Tong Wenbin took the cigarette out of his mouth and looked at Lu Jinshen in confusion. "You didn't register your marriage?"
Lu Jinshen nodded slightly. "Yes, I was delayed by something."
Xia Daiyun was silent for two seconds before saying, "Jinshen, if Qiao 'er is insensible, don't hide it for her. Tell me and I'll definitely educate her properly."
"Mom, Qiao 'er is fine …" Lu Jinshen wanted to explain, but he didn't know what to say.
Xia Daiyun and Tong Wenbin both looked at Lu Jinshen. After waiting for a while and seeing that there was no response, Xia Daiyun asked, "Then why?"
Lu Jinshen: "…"
Tong Wenbin waited for a while, then asked tentatively, "Is it because your mother doesn't like Qiao 'er?"
"No, my mother likes Qiao 'er very much." Lu Jinshen habitually tugged at his collar button. Only when his hand reached his collar did he realize that he wasn't wearing his military uniform today. Military uniform? Lu Jinshen thought of an excuse and said, "There was an emergency in the army, so I went back. When I came back, the Civil Affairs Bureau had already closed. Qiao 'er and I will go to get our marriage certificate tomorrow morning."
Tong Wenbin and Xia Daiyun heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.
"It's okay, work is more important," Xia Daiyun said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes, work is more important." Tong Wenbin also smiled and said, "You must be hungry. Let's eat some cold dishes and drink some wine to warm up first. The food will be ready in a while."
Xia Daiyun heard sounds from the kitchen when she went downstairs. Now that Tong Wenbin said that, she knew that Lu Jinshen and Tong Qiao hadn't eaten yet. She got up and said, "I'll go get your father's collection of good wine."
After a while, the dishes and wine were served on the table. Lu Jinshen and Tong Qiao drank for a while before going downstairs.
At this time, the hot dishes were basically all on the table. Tong Qiao was starving, so she buried her head and began to eat.
Lu Jinshen kept putting food in her bowl from time to time, reminding her to eat slowly.
Tong Wenbin and Xia Daiyun were very pleased to see that the young couple had such a good relationship. The smile on their faces didn't fade.
…
In the bedroom, the child was crying non-stop. Tong Qiao carried An 'an and paced back and forth in the room to coax him. Lu Jinshen didn't even bother to put on his jacket and was in a hurry to make milk for the child.
"Qiao 'er, how much water should I put in five spoonfuls of milk powder?"
Tong Qiao was annoyed by the child's crying and said impatiently, "Didn't I tell you? One spoonful of milk powder and 30ml of water. Hurry up, An 'an is very hungry."
Lu Jinshen was a grown man, so how could he know how to do such delicate work? After making milk powder for a long time, not only was there milk powder and water all over the table, but he was also sweating profusely. When he finally finished making milk powder and sent it to An 'an's mouth, the child took a sip, trembled, threw away the pacifier, and cried even louder.
"What's the matter? Is it too hot? " Tong Qiao asked Lu Jinshen to squeeze some milk on the back of her hand. It was so hot that she shook her hand. She frowned and glared at Lu Jinshen. "It's so hot, how can An 'an drink it? You don't even know how to make milk powder. Carry the child, I'll do it. "
Lu Jinshen took the child and held her in his arms in an awkward position. The child's cries made Lu Jinshen's heart ache. He stood beside Tong Qiao and urged her, "Qiao 'er, hurry up, An' an is starving."
"Don't rush me, I'm making milk powder now." Tong Qiao also felt sorry for her daughter, but this was the first time she brought the child over for the night. In the Lu family, the children were all taken care of by Auntie Lin. Tong Qiao would occasionally help make milk powder in the Lu family, but she wasn't familiar with it. Moreover, she had always been carefree and didn't know how to do such delicate work. She was anxious, and with Lu Jinshen's urging, she began to panic.
She accidentally scalded her hand with the boiling water.
Tong Qiao screamed, and Lu Jinshen hurried over. "You're scalded. Does it hurt?"
Tong Qiao's eyes were red. She shook her head. It was just a little scalded, and it wasn't a big deal. It didn't hurt, but she was anxious. The child was crying, and she didn't know how to coax it. If she was hungry, it would take a long time to make milk powder. "Lu Jinshen, I don't know how to take care of the child. What should I do?"
Lu Jinshen swung the child while holding Tong Qiao's hand and blowing gently. "It's okay, you don't know how to do it. I'll do it."
"But you don't know how to do it either."
"It's okay, I'll learn. Come, you carry the child, I'll make milk powder."
"No, I'll do it."
As they were talking, there was a knock on the door. "Qiao 'er, why is the child crying so hard?"
Tong Qiao quickly went to open the door. When she opened the door, Xia Daiyun was standing at the door with a jacket draped over her. "Mom, An 'an is hungry."
Xia Daiyun entered the room and saw the mess on the table. She knew what had happened. She said while making milk powder, "Why didn't you wake me?"
"I didn't want to disturb your sleep." Tong Qiao stood at the side, feeling wronged.
After a while, Xia Daiyun finished making milk powder. An 'an nestled in Xia Daiyun's arms and gulped down the milk. He didn't cry or make a fuss. He was extremely obedient.
After finishing the milk, Xia Daiyun said, "I'll take care of the child to sleep. Send the milk powder and diapers to my room."
Tong Qiao sent the items over. When she left, she held Xia Daiyun's hand and said, "Mom, did you raise me like this in the past?"
"What else?"
"It's too hard to raise a child. I'll be filial to you and Dad in the future." Tong Qiao said with emotion.
Xia Daiyun smiled. "My Qiao 'er is sensible now."
Tong Qiao pursed her lips. "When was I not sensible?"
"You used to only know how to cause trouble for your dad and me. When I was in school, which parent meeting didn't I get called out and scolded by the teacher?"
"Mom, why do you still remember all these things from the past?"
"Let's not talk about it anymore. It's late. Go to sleep. Wake up early tomorrow. Don't delay the registration of the marriage certificate."
