Chapter 390: Chapter 390: The More I Look at This Daughter-in-law, The More I Like Her
After thinking for a bit, she asked, "Is there a childcare center here? I have nowhere to place my two kids."
"Isn’t that what your family is for? My suggestion would be to have your family take care of them until school starts."
"Well... I’ll think about it."
"Great, I’ll wait for you on set tomorrow; don’t forget."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Qing was full of conflict. Her parents were busy dealing with a multitude of matters concerning Emperor, not to mention the internal strife within the Xiao Family that was already giving them headaches.
For the moment, she couldn’t think of a good solution and decided to just play it by ear.
After lunch, Xiao Qing took her two children out.
"Mommy, are we going to buy ice cream?"
"You little foodie, all you know is eating," Xiao Qing said with a laugh.
"I like eating ice cream. Mommy, can we go to the supermarket to buy some?"
"Do you really want it?"
"Mhm!" The little one nodded emphatically.
Xiao Qing looked at the older child, "And you, big treasure?"
The older child replied coolly, "If mommy buys it, I’ll eat; if not, then I won’t."
She laughed. It’s not like she couldn’t afford to buy an ice cream, could she?
"Let’s go, we’ll head to the supermarket. Once we’re done, we’ll go see your uncle."
"Eh, Mommy, that person upfront is Grandma!" The little one suddenly pointed at a figure not far away.
Following the little one’s gaze, indeed, she saw Mrs. Lu, and inwardly cursed her bad luck, turning to leave, but it was already too late.
"Little treasure, Qingqing~ Oh and big brother little treasure..."
Ye Han quickened her pace towards them, reaching them with a big smile. She hugged the little one and kissed him, then put him down and reached out to hug the older one, but seeing his standoffish expression, she paused and didn’t insist.
"Qingqing, where are you guys headed?"
"We are..."
Before Xiao Qing could finish, little treasure took over the conversation, "Grandma, we’re going to buy ice cream."
"Ice cream? How about Grandma takes you to buy it?" Ye Han’s eyes gleamed; it had been a long time since she did something for her beloved granddaughter.
Then thinking of Qingqing, she looked at her, "Can I join you guys?"
Xiao Qing nodded. Seeing Ye Han holding little treasure’s hand, she looked at the older child, "Big treasure, let’s go with Grandma."
Ye Han’s smile was warm and heartfelt. So this cool little grandson of hers was called big treasure, just like Jinyang when he was little.
"By the way, do big treasure and little treasure have names?"
Xiao Qing’s eyes flickered slightly, "Well, I plan to give them a name after finding their biological father." But the prospect of finding their father seemed dim; school was about to start, and their father’s whereabouts remained unknown.
Although that man named Lu Jinyang was very likely to be their biological father, without evidence, Xiao Qing wouldn’t take it seriously.
Ye Han was thrilled inwardly, determined to have Jinyang name them as soon as she sees him. It seems that whether before or after her memory loss, Qingqing always had a place in her heart for him. The more she looked at her daughter-in-law, the more she liked her.
Along the way, big treasure wore a stoic face, while little treasure was extremely joyful. Upon reaching the supermarket, Xiao Qing noticed big treasure’s reluctance to accompany Ye Han and little treasure; she said to Ye Han, "Mrs. Lu, big treasure and I will go buy some stuff over there. Let’s meet at the checkout counter later."
"Alright, alright, alright."
Ye Han said "alright" three times in a row and then took little treasure towards the snack area, while Xiao Qing headed to the fresh food section.
