After returning to the riverside condominium, Grandpa Xiao Hongwei helped Little Yu'er bathe. Lv Yuqing looked at the time and estimated that it should be around 7 in the morning in America. Little Yu'er should have woken up by now. Thus, she sent a message over.
Lv Yuqing: Daughter, are you awake?
Xiao Rongyu: Yes, I am already awake. Is there something wrong with the baby?
Xiao Rongyu replied almost instantly. Other than showing that she was concerned about her daughter, it also showed that she might have not slept for the entire night.
"Hello ~"
Lv Yuqing directly called Little Yu'er. She did not send the message slowly. When the call was connected, she immediately said, "Did you not sleep last night?"
"I'm fine ~"
Xiao Rongyu's voice was muffled. "Maybe I'm not used to it. I can't sleep."
"Don't worry about Zijin."
Lv Yuqing naturally knew that Little Yu'er missed her daughter. She said with heartache, "Chen Zijin is very good now. Grandpa is helping her bathe. Can you hear the noise in the bathroom? She is even livelier than you were when you were young."
Lv Yuqing deliberately walked to the bathroom door. As expected, Xiao Rongyu immediately heard the sound of her daughter splashing the water and Old Xiao's helpless reprimand.
"Hurry up and sit properly. Otherwise, you are going to be spanked."
"You are splashing the water again. Grandpa's hair is all wet!"
"Grandpa still needs to wear this set of clothes for the meeting tomorrow. Hurry up and close your eyes. Grandpa will help you flush the water."
… …
However, Little Yu'er was not afraid of her grandpa at all. Sometimes, she would even talk back loudly. It could be seen that she was in a very happy mood.
"How is it? I didn't lie to you, right?"
Lv Yuqing asked with a smile. With a baby in the house, it would be much livelier.
"It's just that she is too naughty."
Xiao Rongyu's tone was no longer gloomy. "You all can't bear to take care of her. That's why she can't even bathe peacefully."
"It's good for children to be noisy. Let's continue the video call later."
Lv Yuqing walked back to the bedroom and tried her best to say some positive news. "This morning, I went to buy clothes for Chen Zijin. When the salespeople saw our Little Yu 'er, they all wanted to hug and touch her. They all said that such a cute baby could be a child model."
"Okay ~"
Little Yu'er smiled happily. Although she knew that this was what salespeople were used to doing when they wanted to sell clothes, people who were shopping would fall for it.
When she was in her first year of university, the salesperson in the mall insisted that she and Chen Hansheng looked like a couple when they wore down jackets, so she bought one too.
After he bought it, he found out that a girl from the opposite university also had one.
"There's more."
Lv Yuqing didn't know what Little Yu'er was thinking. She continued, "Your father helped you get a new ID card. He will send it to you tomorrow. Maybe you can come back before the 20th."
"The 20th …"
Xiao Rongyu hesitated for a while. Today was the 13th. If it was the 20th, there were still seven days to go. Besides, the earliest was the 20th. How did Little Yu'er drink breast milk during this time?
"Mom, did you hire a wet nurse during the day?"
Xiao Rongyu suddenly asked.
"Yes, we hired a wet nurse, but she wasn't very satisfied."
Lv Yuqing knew that this topic couldn't be avoided, so she simply told all the inappropriate things about Wei Hongyan. In the end, she said frankly, "So we went to see Shen Youchu again. We just came back from her place."
Xiao Rongyu suddenly fell silent on the other side of the phone when she heard the news. Until Lv Yuqing called her a few times uneasily, Little Yu'er sighed softly. "I know."
Lv Yuqing already felt a little guilty, so she said with annoyance, "Actually, Wei Hongyan is not bad. I really have too many problems. Whose milk isn't milk? No matter which wet nurse we find tomorrow, even if she is a cripple or a mute, mom will definitely agree!"
At this time, Lv Yuqing was in "sage mode". Because Chen Zijin was full now, she was very stubborn no matter what she said.
It could be compared to when boys secretly swore that it was the last time after watching porn. They even set the word "Jiese" as their phone's screensaver to remind themselves.
However, the next time they were impulsive, they would still do what they were supposed to do. They couldn't lose their traditional skills.
"It's okay. I will help Chen Zipei feed her again."
Xiao Rongyu understood his mother very well. Lv Yuqing had a serious case of mysophobia, and Wei Hongyan was not only bad in her habits, but she was also very talkative. That was why Lv Yuqing had rejected her.
However, this kind of situation should be rare. Besides, today was also a little rushed. They should be able to find a more suitable person in the future.
But before they find a suitable person …
Xiao Rongyu suddenly felt a little irritated. She felt that something was uncontrollably leaning towards Chen Hansheng. Fortunately, Chen Zijin finished bathing at this time. She wrapped a small package and sent it to Lv Yuqing.
Xiao Rongyu helped her mother to register a QQ account. After sending it to Lv Yuqing, not long after, the video call was connected. Xiao Rongyu finally saw Chen Zijin who had just finished bathing.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time the mother and daughter had a video call. Chen Zijin saw the familiar mother actually appeared on the computer screen. Her big eyes were filled with confusion and stared blankly at the camera.
"This is mom, call mom."
Lv Yuqing coaxed her granddaughter.
Little Yu 'er stared at the camera for a while. The baby didn't know that her mother was thousands of miles away and was detained by her heartless father. Little Yu' er stretched out her little chubby hand towards the computer, asking for her mother's hug.
"Yiya … Yiya … Yiya … Yiya … Ma …"
Chen Zijin unconsciously said "baby language", and one of the syllables seemed to be very similar to "ma". Lv Yuqing immediately shouted excitedly, "Little Yu 'er, did you hear that? The baby can call mom. Old Xiao, come over quickly, Zijin is calling mom …"
Xiao Hongwei immediately ran over, but under the gaze of grandpa and grandma, Little Yu 'er stopped talking again. She just mumbled some other syllables incoherently.
"Don't say it randomly."
Old Xiao said, "How old is Chen Zijin? She can't say anything consciously."
In the normal development of a baby, the baby can make guttural sounds at 2 months, babble sounds and laugh at 3 to 4 months, monosyllabic sounds at 5 to 6 months, and unconsciously make double sounds at 7 to 9 months, just like daddy and mommy.
Little Yu 'er was just making monosyllabic sounds unconsciously at this month. It was estimated that she would only be able to "call mom" after 3 months.
At that time, it would be July. It was also the season when flowers fell all over the ground.
However, Xiao Rongyu was already moved to tears. Only a mother would know what it meant to be called "mom".
After chatting for another half an hour, Chen Zijin yawned. It was only then that Xiao Rongyu reluctantly said goodbye to his parents and daughter. Then, he wiped his tears, took a deep breath, and pulled open the curtains.
The sunlight shone through the glass onto the floor. It was another bright morning. Liang Meijuan got up very early. She was taking a walk in the yard with her granddaughter in her arms.
Chen Zipei lay quietly on her grandma's shoulder. From afar, people would think that she was asleep, but in fact, she was just pouting and blowing bubbles.
"Is this Shen Youchu's daughter?"
Xiao Rongyu was too excited when she arrived in the US yesterday. She didn't have time to observe Chen Zipei carefully. Now that she observed her for a while, the mother and daughter really looked alike.
"When Shen Youchu was feeding Little Yu 'er."
A thought suddenly flashed through Xiao Rongyu's mind. "Will she remember me?"
