After breakfast, Tang Tang took Ji Xiaozhuo out to buy the things she needed to make shoes.
Other than a needle left behind by Aunt Li, there were no other tools at home.
She really didn't know why the original owner, who was a fashion design major, didn't even have any tools to make clothes. Could it be that she relied on machines?
The first step of making shoes was to make the soles.
This required Ji Yue's shoe size. Tang Tang asked Ji Xiaozhuo to be an undercover agent to inquire about Ji Yue's shoe size.
The requirement was that Ji Yue couldn't know what he was going to do.
Ji Xiaozhuo rolled his big eyes.
He patted his chest and promised that he would complete the task. Then, he ran into the room to carry out the task.
She didn't know how Ji Xiaozhuo fooled him.
He came back with the fruits of victory in less than ten minutes.
Tang Tang kissed the little guy's face twice in admiration.
The little guy giggled.
The fabric that Tang Tang bought to make the shoes was a moon-white embroidered fabric. It had embroidery patterns, so she didn't need to embroider it herself. She only needed to use a transparent ribbon to make a few three-dimensional flowers on the upper of the shoes.
It added to the beauty of the shoes.
Tang Tang felt that although there were many styles of shoes and they were beautiful, many women's shoes were uncomfortable to wear.
Especially high heels, it was a kind of torture to wear.
She didn't know why the women here liked to wear them so much.
Ji Yue seemed to like to wear them too, so she wanted to give Ji Yue a pair of beautiful and comfortable shoes.
If Ji Yue was willing to wear them,
It would be very comfortable to walk on.
Tang Tang was very fast.
A pair of shoes was made in less than two days. He was very satisfied with it. He showed the shoes to the only man present and asked for his opinion. "Baby, do you think the shoes look good?"
Ji Xiaozhuo's little hand couldn't help touching the small flowers on the shoes. He nodded. "They look good! Mom, this flower looks good. "
Tang Tang rubbed the little fellow's head. "Baby, you really know what's good for you." Although these flowers were inconspicuous, they were the most time-consuming part of the shoe. They were also the finishing touch of the entire shoe. It made the shoe look elegant and unique. It was definitely not something that could be done by shoes sold outside.
Since Ji Xiaozhuo also thought it looked good, Tang Tang felt confident. She carefully packed the shoes in a box and went to buy some ingredients. She made two sets of pastries and two cans of her exclusive meat sauce for Ji Yue.
"Let's go, baby. Let's go and deliver something to Auntie Ji Yue. Thank you, Auntie Ji Yue, for helping Mommy become beautiful."
"OK." Ji Xiaozhuo led the way for Tang Tang. "Mom, I know the name of Auntie Ji Yue's company. I'll take you there."
Tang Tang followed behind Ji Yue and successfully arrived at the company building. Ji Yue personally met them downstairs.
Tang Tang only felt that Ji Yue gave off a very different feeling today. She was wearing a well-fitting woman's suit that hugged her slim figure. Her legs were long and straight under the suit skirt, and the high heels on her feet made her look beautiful and tall. As she walked, a strong and confident aura filled the air. The employees passing by would nod and greet her when they saw her. She smiled faintly and nodded back. She was indescribably capable and confident.
Was this how a woman at work looked like? She was so charming! No wonder the women here had to go to work like men.
Tang Tang was full of admiration for Ji Yue. Unfortunately, she couldn't be like Ji Yue. The only things she could possibly be good at were cooking and needlework.
Ji Yue brought the two of them to her private office. She instructed her assistant to pour tea for Ji Xiaozhuo and Tang Tang. She also brought some snacks for Ji Xiaozhuo. She then smiled and said, "You must have brought delicious food for me. Thank you for your hard work."
Tang Tang placed the things she brought on the coffee table. "It's easy to make some food. I didn't do much. I only made two pastries and two meat sauces for you. See if you like them."
Ji Yue didn't stand on ceremony. She opened the box containing the food and saw eight exquisite pastries. Her eyes lit up. "They're so beautiful. These are authentic Chinese pastries. I can't believe you know how to make Chinese pastries!" She thought that Tang Tang was making Western pastries.
Ji Yue couldn't wait to take a chestnut cake and put it in her mouth. It tasted soft, delicate, and sweet. After swallowing it, she could still taste its fragrance in her mouth. She couldn't help but give her a thumbs up. "Tang Tang, your pastries are amazing. I've eaten Chinese pastries made by famous chefs a few times, but none of them were as good as yours." Ji Yue couldn't help but take a hibiscus cake and stuff it in her mouth.
At that moment, Ji Yue didn't have the aura of a domineering elder sister anymore. She had turned into a glutton and was comparable to Ji Xiaozhuo. Tang Tang was amused by her behavior. She advised, "This thing is filling. You should eat less. If you eat too much, you won't be able to eat anymore."
Ji Yue smiled and nodded. "I'm not eating anymore. I'm going to bring it home for Gu Changan to try."
At that moment, Ji Yue noticed that Tang Tang had brought a box with her. She asked curiously, "What else did you bring?"
Tang Tang opened the box that contained the shoes and took out the embroidered shoes. She said embarrassedly, "I made a pair of embroidered shoes for you. I hope you don't mind."
Ji Yue was stunned. She took the shoes from Tang Tang and was attracted by the exquisiteness of the shoes at first glance. "Oh my god, Tang Tang, I really admire you. You actually know how to make these shoes, and they look so good. If you didn't tell me, I would have thought that you bought them from somewhere. They're so beautiful."
Ji Yue wasn't being polite. She really thought that the shoes were beautiful. They were simple and elegant, small and exquisite. They had the artistic conception of ancient times, but they didn't lack modern fashion. If she wore them on her feet, they would definitely attract people's attention. If she wore them with a white fairy dress, she would look like a fairy.
After being praised by Ji Yue, Tang Tang was almost embarrassed. Only Ji Xiaozhuo was extremely proud. His little chest unconsciously puffed out.
Ji Yue simply took off the high heels on her feet and put on the embroidered shoes. It felt especially light and comfortable on her feet. She couldn't help but twirl around a few times smugly. "How is it? Does it look good? "
Both mother and son nodded and said in unison, "It looks good!"
"Haha … It's just that it doesn't match my clothes today. Next time, I'll wear it with a long dress. I can wear this when I go shopping. It definitely won't tire my feet." Ji Yue happily put away the shoes. Seeing that it was getting late, she said to Tang Tang and Ji Xiaozhuo, "It's noon. Let's go downstairs and have lunch together."
Tang Tang didn't refuse this time.
During lunch, Tang Tang went to the washroom. In the end, she didn't expect to meet an acquaintance. A coquettish woman also happened to come out of the washroom. When she saw Tang Tang, she was stunned. In the next second, she immediately smiled and said very familiarly, "Tang Tang, where have you been all this time? We haven't seen you at all. We couldn't find you even if we wanted to have a drink with you."
Tang Tang looked at the thick makeup on the woman's face and the overly revealing clothes on her body. She couldn't help but frown. She subconsciously took a step back to distance herself from her. Although she didn't know who this woman was, she didn't look like a good woman. Instead, she looked like a bad friend. People who walked different paths couldn't make plans together. No matter what kind of relationship the previous Tang Tang had with this person, she didn't want to associate with such a person.
Tang Tang frowned and said, "Don't look for me to have a drink in the future. I'll stay at home and take care of my husband and children."
"Take care of your husband and children?" The woman almost choked on her saliva. She looked as if she was looking at a lunatic. "Tang Tang, did you take the wrong medicine? What's wrong with you?"
"Taking care of your husband and children is quite good." Tang Tang didn't understand why this sentence made her so surprised. Was it that scary to take care of your husband and children?
"Crazy, crazy …" The woman felt that Tang Tang had really gone crazy. Could it be that the car accident damaged her brain?
The woman originally wanted to grab Tang Tang and ask her again. However, not far away, a man impatiently walked over and grabbed her arm. "What's wrong with you? Why are you dawdling in the washroom?!"
The woman immediately smiled and reached out to hug the man's fat arm. She said coquettishly, "Oh, I met an acquaintance. I just said hello. Darling, don't be angry."
The man glanced at Tang Tang and found that she was an ugly woman. He showed an annoyed expression and dragged the woman away.
Tang Tang immediately heaved a sigh of relief. In her heart, she prayed that she would never meet such an "acquaintance" again.
After washing her hands, Tang Tang turned around and walked back. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, she saw a beautiful young woman standing not far away and looking at her. It seemed that she had been here for a long time.
Tang Tang had seen this woman before. She was one of the four people that she met at the restaurant with Ji Yan last time. She felt that this woman seemed to know her last time.
However, the four people's attitude towards Ji Yan last time made Tang Tang suspicious, so she planned to leave directly. Unexpectedly, when she passed by the woman, the woman took the initiative to speak. "Tang Tang, I'm very happy that you're not muddling through your days anymore."
Tang Tang stopped in her tracks. This person really knew her.
Seeing that Tang Tang was ignoring her, the woman hurriedly said, "Tang Tang, can you listen to me for a while? Mom is sick. You should go back and take a look."
Mom? Whose mom? What was the relationship between the Original Host and this woman?
Seeing that Tang Tang was still not speaking, a complicated expression appeared on the woman's face. She said in a low voice, "Tang Tang, I know that you resent me for taking away what belongs to you. You also resent Mom and Dad for being biased towards me. However, other than Shiyue, I've never thought of taking away anything that belongs to you. Besides, if you hadn't done those things, Mom and Dad wouldn't have treated you like this … "The woman paused when she realized that there was no point in saying these things. She changed the topic and said," No matter what, you're still Mom's biological daughter. She's sick. You should go and see her. I'm sure she'll be very happy to see you. "
Tang Tang was completely confused. She couldn't figure out what was going on. However, it sounded like there was a huge grudge between the Original Host and this woman and her so-called Mom and Dad. However, no matter what, she couldn't just agree to this woman's request to visit Mom.
Therefore, Tang Tang could only choose to walk past the woman in silence.
Watching Tang Tang's back as she hurriedly left, a complicated expression flashed across the woman's eyes.
*
For the rest of the day, Tang Tang kept thinking about the woman's words. However, no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn't figure out the grudge between them. Originally, she wanted to ask Ji Xiaoyan, the only person who might know, but she put down the phone in her hand.
Forget it, forget it. It's better not to ask. It'll be bad if the baby's father is unhappy. She felt that things weren't as simple as they seemed. If the baby's father was willing to talk to her, he would have told her when they met at the restaurant. Since he didn't say anything, it meant that he didn't want to talk about it. In that case, she shouldn't ask. The most important thing was to live her own life.
Ji Xiaozhuo saw that Tang Tang was holding the phone with a conflicted expression. He immediately misunderstood. He pulled her sleeve and asked, "Mom, do you want to call Dad? Do you miss Dad? "
Tang Tang came back to her senses. She looked embarrassed and quickly waved her hand. "No, no, Mom doesn't miss Dad."
Ji Xiaozhuo pointed to the phone in her hand and said, "You obviously want to call Dad. Mom, don't be embarrassed. In fact, I miss Dad very much. Dad has been gone for so many days."
Tang Tang didn't know how to explain it.
Ji Xiaozhuo ran to get his tablet and sat in Tang Tang's arms. His little hand skillfully operated the tablet and directly sent a voice message to Ji Yan. "Dad, Dad, I'm Xiaozhuo. Mom and I miss you so much. Can you video call me?"
Tang Tang didn't mind the little guy directly bringing her along. When did she say that she missed his father? What would his father think if she said that?
Ah, she felt embarrassed just thinking about it.
Tang Tang blushed and thought about how to remedy the situation. Unexpectedly, Ji Yan had already seen it and directly sent a video call request. Ji Xiaozhuo didn't even give Tang Tang time to react. He quickly picked it up and shouted happily, "Dad!"
Ji Yan's face appeared on the screen. Tang Tang had to smile stiffly and call Ji Yan, "Honey." At the same time, she secretly observed Ji Yan's expression to see if there was any abnormality. She found that he was the same as usual. It seemed that he didn't care about Ji Xiaozhuo's words just now.
Tang Tang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Xiaozhuo didn't notice his mother's nervousness at all. He was still happily chatting with Ji Yan. After a few sentences, he shared what happened today with Ji Yan. "Dad, let me tell you. Auntie Ji Yue liked the pastries Mom made for Ji Yue. She also liked the shoes very much. She even said that Mom is awesome!" The little guy's expression was beyond proud.
"Is that so." Ji Yan glanced at Tang Tang and actually agreed with the little guy. "She is very awesome."
Tang Tang blushed and explained embarrassedly, "It's not as exaggerated as the baby said."
Ji Xiaozhuo puffed up his chest. "Yes, Mom is very good at it."
Ji Xiaozhuo was now his mother's super little fan. The reason was that Tang Tang's food was super delicious. For a foodie, being a breeder was the most attractive thing.
Tang Tang covered her face. Seeing that she couldn't stop Ji Xiaozhuo from flattering her, she had no choice but to thicken her skin and let him do as he pleased.
When Ji Xiaozhuo was finally done, Ji Yan looked at Tang Tang and said, "My application to follow the army has been approved. I also got the house."
"You got the house?" Tang Tang was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect it to be so fast. Did that mean that they would be able to move in very soon?
Ji Yan nodded and said, "But there's no furniture in the house. Everything will have to be redecorated. I'll take some time off and go out to buy some furniture. When I'm done, I'll pick you and Xiaozhuo up."
Ji Xiaozhuo understood and immediately cheered. "Dad, does that mean that Mom and I will be able to live with you every day after you're done?"
Ji Yan nodded with a smile.
"Dad, when will you be ready? Dad, I miss you so much. "Ji Xiaozhuo couldn't wait to be by his father's side.
Ji Yan thought for a moment and gave the little guy a specific date. "Wait for another half a month. Dad will pick you up."
Ji Xiaozhuo immediately pouted when he heard that it was half a month. "Dad, half a month is a long time. Can't I go over tomorrow?"
"But there's nothing at home. You won't have anything to eat, drink, or sleep. How are you going to live?"
Ji Xiaozhuo thought about not being able to eat, drink, or sleep. He instantly became listless.
Tang Tang felt that it was too hard for Ji Yan to train and decorate the house, so she asked tentatively, "Honey, can Xiaozhuo and I go over first? You're so busy. It'll be very hard for you to take time to decorate the house. Anyway, Baobao and I have nothing to do at home. I'll have time to buy things and decorate the house when you're busy. It'll definitely take less than two days."
Ji Yan was silent. Although Tang Tang's suggestion was not a bad idea, buying furniture and decorating the house was a big project. It was very tiring. He had never thought of letting her do such a thing.
Ji Xiaozhuo could finally go over in advance. She was afraid that her father would not agree, so she immediately said coquettishly, "Dad, Mom and I are very capable. I can sweep the floor and wipe the table. Let us go."
Tang Tang chimed in from behind, "That's right, that's right. The baby is amazing. We can do anything."
Seeing the mother and son like this, Ji Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought for a moment and agreed. "I can't leave for the time being. I can't go back to pick you up. I'll ask Gu Changan to send someone to send you here. You can pack some necessary things in the next two days."
Seeing that he agreed, the mother and son happily clapped their hands. Ji Xiaozhuo didn't even care about her father. She rushed directly to the room to pack her things.
