Chapter 138: 138

Because everyone was busy with things at hand, Dai Shu Fang walked towards the door and shouted, "Don't move, I'll open the door!"

She opened the door and found Zhong Kang De standing outside with a bunch of red roses in his hands.

Zhong Kang De's eyes swept across her body. Astonishment appeared in his eyes and he praised: "Shu Fang, you are really beautiful and stunning today!"

Dai Shu Fang felt a little shy under the gaze. Her face was slightly red: "Look at what you're saying. Am I not beautiful and attractive on most days?"

Zhong Kang De immediately shook his head, "No, no. It's me who can't speak. You are always good-looking. But today...you are especially beautiful!"

When he said the latter part, his voice was lowered. The words 'especially beautiful' seemed to roll off his tongue. Full of ambiguity.

Dai Shu Fang's cheeks became hotter. She coughed to change the subject, "By the way, why did you come here today?"

Zhong Kang De handed over the roses in his hand and answered, "Today is your birthday. These flowers are for you. In foreign countries, the flower language of twenty-five roses is to wish you happiness. Shu Fang, I hope you will be happy forever!"

When she was going to marry Huo Zheng Chen, he also said this to her.

His blessing to her hadn't changed from beginning to end. As long as she was happy, he will sincerely bless her even if she wasn't by his side,.

This time he returned to the country to meet her again. He didn't plan to do anything. Still, he couldn't control his mouth and asked Da Qiao for news about her.

It not inquiring was unimportant. But only after inquiring did he find out that she was actually divorced!

That b*stard Huo Zheng Chen actually married another wife abroad and even gave birth to a child. If he had a chance to meet Huo Zheng Chen, he would definitely punch him in the face!

Dai Shu Fang obviously thought of what happened back then as her eyes were a little red.

She concealed her emotions by bringing the rose closer: "Thank you. These roses are very beautiful. It is difficult to find such beautiful roses in the capital!"

Zhong Kang De pushed the gold wire frame glasses and responded, "It's not difficult as long as you have the heart."

Dai Shu Fang didn't dare to look at him. She moved her body to the side and said, "We are preparing lunch. If you have nothing to do next, why not stay and have a meal together?"

Don't know if it was because she was overthinking, she had a niggling feeling that every word he said had a deep meaning. It seem like he was implying something!

Zhong Kang De was glad to and hurriedly replied: "Sure, I have nothing else to do next. I'm very free!"

Dai Shu Fang: "..."

After closing the door, the two went into the room one after the other.

When Da Qiao saw Auntie Fang coming back with a bunch of roses, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Flowers match beauty. Auntie Fang, you are so beautiful today!"

Everyone liked to be praised. Two red clouds appeared on Dai Shu Fang's cheeks: "You child, why does your mouth seem like it's smeared with honey. Auntie Fang looks pretty because the qipao you made looks wonderful and fits perfectly!"

The dimple at the corner of Da Qiao's mouth popped up: "My grandfather guided me the embroidery. If not, I wouldn't be able to embroider such a beautiful embroidery!"

"What? This dress was embroidered by Classmate Qiao?" Zhong Kang De uttered with a surprised look on his face.

Da Qiao let out an 'ah'. She only saw Professor Zhong walking out from behind Aunt Fang now.

"Hello, Professor Zhong!"

She stood up with a swoosh with a freshly washed duck in her hand.

Zhong Kang De waved his hand. His eyes fell on the duck in her hand and remarked, "Classmate Qiao doesn't need to be too cautious. From this point of view, Classmate Qiao is proficient in all eighteen martial arts!"

Not only was she good at studying, but she can also embroider and cook. She was an excellent pupil!

When it comes to Da Qiao, Dai Shu Fang got a lot to say: "You are right, I have met so many people and have never seen a little girl who is more beautiful and ingenious than my Da Qiao. I am not praising her, She's really wonderful at everything!"

Da Qiao:"……"

Auntie Fang, if you don't call this a compliment, then what is a compliment?

Zhong Kang De noticed Da Qiao's blushing in embarrassment and couldn't help laughing: "You are right. I also think Da Qiao is wonderful. She performing brilliantly in school. Are you interested in listening to me on her matter at school?"

Dai Shu Fang nodded again and again: "Please do. Let's go inside and talk while drinking tea."

There was a smile in Zhong Kang De's eyes: "Okay!"

Da Qiao:"……"

Hey, treating her as a topic... Should they ask her for her opinion first?

Huo Chi came over with a bucket and took in her blank state: "What's wrong with you? Why are you in a daze?"

Da Qiao came back to her senses, shook her head, and said, "I'm fine, but Professor Zhong came over and gave Auntie Fang a bunch of red roses!"

Huo Chi was startled: "Do you like roses too?"

Da Qiao nodded: "I like it. So many roses together looks pretty!"

The roses she planted were small roses. A good option as dried flowers, but not good enough to gift away.

Huo Chi said without hesitation: "Then I will send you next time!"

Da Qiao pursed her lips and grinned: "Okay, then I'll thank Elder Brother Huo Chi first. By the way, didn't you say you wanted to ask Grandpa Huo about Professor Zhong last time?"

Huo Chi poured the water from the bucket into the wooden basin. Then he squatted down and plucked duck feathers with her: "Grandfather said that Professor Zhong and my mom's maternal family used to be neighbors. The two of them grew up together and have a good relationship."

Da Qiao meaningfully nodded: "It turned out to be childhood sweethearts, just like us!"

Huo Chi liked her use of 'us' to describe their relationship. It made him feel that they were one. However, every time he saw her gossipy expression, he wanted to laugh.

He dipped his hands in water and tapped her nose, "Qiao Nian Nian, didn't you notice? You are getting more and more gossipy now. If you continue like this, you will become like those auntie in Qili Village in the future!"

Da Qiao screamed, dodged from his hand, and grumbled: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, why are you such so bad? And I don't gossip. I care about Auntie Fang, okay?"

Dai Shu Fang heard the scream and ran out of the room: "What happened? What care about me?"

Da Qiao and Huo Chi were both found it awkward.

You can't talk about people during the day. This phrase was so true!

Da Qiao secretly poked the flesh on Huo Chi's waist to urge him to explain to Auntie Fang.

Huo Chi's hand grabbed her wandering little hand from behind and calmly spoke: "Mom, it's alright. There was something running over there just now. We thought it was a mouse and Da Qiao said that she wanted to catch a cat and avoid scaring you."

When Da Qiao heard this, she turned her head to look at him in surprise.

Elder Brother Huo Chi's ability to lie is so smooth!

Dai Shu Fang looked at the two of them, praised Da Qiao's sensibility and consideration. Then she told Huo Chi: "You are a boy, you can do the work. Da Qiao, if you are tired, come in and rest. "

Huo Chi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Mom, am I still your biological son?"

Dai Shu Fang amusedly scolded: "What? Not satisfied from doing some work? Don't do it if you have the ability!"

"Doing! How could I possibly not!" Huo Chi quickly begged for mercy, "Mom, why don't you hurry in. It's not good to let Professor Zhong be in there alone, right?"

Only then, Dai Shu Fang turned around and went back.

Da Qiao freed her little hand and spoke, "Elder Brother Huo Chi, can you let go of my hand now?"

Huo Chi looked at her pink and tender face. Suddenly, he lowered his head and gave her a quick kiss on the back of her hand. Then he frowned and commented, "...Why does it seem to have a smell?"

Da Qiao almost burst out laughing: "Elder Brother Huo Chi, I just plucked the duck feathers next to the duck's butt with my hand before you came. Of course it smells!"

Huo Chi's expression cracked: "..."

Seeing him like this, Da Qiao laughed and rocked back and forth.

——

First branch's Qiao Zhen Guo, his wife, and An Ping was coming in the evening, because they got to open their shop.

Since An Ping got engaged to Dai Xiao Xue, he seem like a different person.

In the past, he always had a lazy aura around him. Now, this kind of temperament disappeared in a day.

He worked harder than before. Every week he would come up with new dishes and would give customers half price on the first day of tasting new dishes.

After the customers taste it, he would personally ask the customers' opinion. Then revision was made according to the customers' opinion. The customers' evaluation was very high. There were more repeat customers and the sale in the store was hotter.

Recently, An Ping and his dad, Qiao Zhen Guo had been looking at a new store. This store was a little too small. They originally wanted to rent or buy the one next door. But the landlord next door saw how good their business was and was dead set on raising the price.

The price was too high that it wasn't worth buying or selling. So they decided to look elsewhere.

Qiao Xiu Zhi and Xue Chuan saw the changes in their eldest grandson and were very pleased.

Though An Ping was silly, he was more reliable than his parents. It won't be a problem to support his wife and children in the future!

After An Ping's prospective father-in-law knew about his progress, his expression improved.

While Dai Xiao Xue was pitiful.. She had been brought back from Huo's house. Every day she was forced to study by her dad. Her life was miserable.

After Qiao Dong He came over, she crouched down to prepare to help, but was stopped by everyone.

Her belly was already obvious. How can everyone let her work. What's more, there were so many people who can work here. Having her or not didn't make any difference.

Qiao Dong He was stopped everywhere. In the end, she had to be helped by her husband to sit inside.

It wouldn't look good for the couple to sit and waited throughout the whole process. After helping Qiao Dong He to the living room, Luo Jun Liang went over to help out.

After the greeting, Zhong Kang De stood up and said, "I'll also go outside to see if my help is needed."

After saying that, he went out.

He had been here for a while and had been chatting with Dai Shu Fang for a long time. If he goes on, it will not only attract the attention of other people, but may also arouse Dai Shu Fang's vigilance.

What he want to do now was to appear by her side little by little; let her get used to his existence again. Then he'll confess.

He did consider pursuing her directly and enthusiastically, but quickly rejected the idea.

They were no longer hot-blooded young people. They had all experienced marriages, divorces, and traumatized hearts. They were bound to be more cautious about new relationships.

Anyway, he had time. He'll slowly spends it with her!

Inside the living room.

Dai Shu Fang brewed Qiao Dong He a cup of red dates and wolfberry brown sugar water. Then she asked her, "How is your belly? Have you been to the hospital for an examination?"

Qiao Dong He rubbed her belly. Her face full of motherly kindness: "I have. The doctor said everything is fine."

Dai Shu Fang nodded: "That's good. There are still six months left. If there is anything you don't understand, you must ask someone. Your grandmother has a lot of experience in this area. If you don't understand, ask her. Don't hold it within you all by yourself, understand?"

As for her mom, Wan Chun Ju, she wasn't a reliable person.

Qiao Dong He nodded again: "I understand. If there is anything I don't understand, I will ask my grandmother."

Dai Shu Fang took a sip of rose tea: "I heard that your mother-in-law is coming. How long is she going to stay here?"

It wouldn't be a bad thing for a good mother-in-law to come over to help Qiao Dong He with her postnatal confinement. The problem was that her mother-in-law wasn't trouble-free!

Hearing her mentioning her mother-in-law, the smile on Qiao Dong He's face disappeared at once: "I don't know how long she is going to stay. Auntie Fang, to tell you the truth, when I think of living with my mother-in-law, I feel timid!"

Hearing her words, Dai Shu Fang sighed internally: "Dong He, as your elder, I will give you an advice! Your grandmother mentioned your affairs to me. You are the key factor in your mother-in-law's matter. If you can't stand up, no one else can help you!"

One can help for a while, but not forever.

That person was her husband's mom. Can they, the outsiders, intervene to drive the other party away?

Wasn't this obviously driving a wedge in their husband and wife relationship?

Qiao Xiu Zhi had said she don't plan to get involved when Qiao Dong He's mother-in-law come over. She wanted Qiao Dong He suffer a big loss and let it force her to stand up by herself.

If she can't stand up, it was better to get a divorce and stay at home as an old spinster!

Of course, she wouldn't tell Qiao Dong He this. She did feel that her character was too soft. Her Da Qiao was better.

When she should be soft, she was a warming little padded jacket. But when she steel up, even an idler would be broken by her!

Qiao Dong He's eyes turned slightly red: "Thank you, Auntie Fang. I know."

She knew she should toughen up, but she couldn't!

That was Jun Liang's mom. If she talked back, what would Jun Liang think of her?

Dai Shu Fang was irked by Qiao Dong He's reaction.

Out of sight, out of mind. She stood up and found a reason to leave.

Qiao Dong He was alone in the living room. Her heart was heavy.

This time she came here with the intention of having her grandmother step forward to persuade her mother-in-law back. But after she came, her grandmother never let her speak. Simply dismissed her away.

Judging by her grandmother's behavior, she didn't want to get involved.

Her heart felt sad.

——

The prepared menu were almost ready. Da Qiao and Huo Chi reached to the filming company by car to pick up Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun.

Once downstair at the filming company, Huo Chi got the driver to pick up the two little guys upstairs while they waited below.

Huo Chi quickly went to buy popsicles. He and Da Qiao each had one.

Da Qiao accepted the popsicle and licked it. It was nice and cool: "Thank you Elder Brother Huo Chi. But why did you only buy two? Two little guys will definitely protest when they see it!"

Huo Chi replied: "I heard that children can't eat too many cold things. Besides, one of them is going to film and one is going to record a record. I think it's better to buy them after things are settled."

Da Qiao's little head nodded: "Elder Brother Huo Chi thought it out thoroughly. Then don't buy it for them!"

Huo Chi curled his lips into a smile.

It wasn't that he was stingy about that bit of money. He had long wished to eat popsicles on the street with her. So he had to sacrifice Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun.

At this moment, Xue An Xu and little Dong Yun fiercely sneezed.

The two of them were so excited about seeing their family members soon. After saying goodbye to the people from the company, they bounced downstairs with the driver.

When they came downstairs, the two little guys saw Da Qiao. Their eyes lit up and they shouted 'Elder Sister' and rushed over.

"Elder Sister, I miss you so much!" Xue An Xu hung on Da Qiao's body like a chewing gum. He raised his little face at her to act cute.

Little Dong Yun squeezed her younger brother away and quickly hugged the other thigh, "Elder Sister, I miss you too! Every day, every moment, every second! Even in my dreams!"

Huo Chi: Damn, now even a child can say such sickly sweet things better than him. What face did he have to claim to be Da Qiao's match?

Da Qiao's hands rubbed both of them: "Elder Sister misses you too. The weather is too hot. Let's get in the car and talk, okay?"

Xue An Xu looked at the shop opposite and said, "Elder Sister, I want to eat a popsicle!"

When little Dong Yun heard the word popsicle, she subconsciously swallowed her saliva and pleadingly looked at her elder sister. Her desire to eat was obvious.

Da Qiao immediately made her small face stern, "Can't. It's easy for children to have upset stomach from eating too many cold things! Not only you children can't eat them, but I also won't eat!"

Xue An Xu pursed his lips and aggrievedly responded, "Fine then. Won't eat it then. I'm a poor little cabbage~"

Little Dong Yun followed with her singing: "Little cabbage ah, the ground is yellow, three or two years old, no mother, follow daddy, live well. Just afraid that daddy will marry a stepmother. Biological mother, biological mother..."

This song was originally to describe the sad mood of a little girl who was abused after losing her mother. Little Dong Yun's voice was clear and full of emotion. She sang this folk song very mournfully.

When passers-by heard it, some aunts with weak tear ducts immediately started tearing up.

Some people looked at Da Qiao and Huo Chi with condemning eyes. Both broke out in cold sweat from the gazes.

Da Qiao hurriedly stopped her: "Okay, let's stop singing little Dong Yun. There's a lot to eat when we get back. You can eat as much as you want!"

Little Dong Yun and Xue An Xu were both obedient children. Seeing that their elder sister speak, they nodded in agreement.

It was right at this time!

The female boss of the small shop opposite ran over with a five-cent note. She shouted as she ran, "Young man, you bought popsicles just now and your change was five cents short. Come, take it!"

Da Qiao:"……"

Huo Chi: "..."

Little Dong Yun: ? ? ?

Xue An Xu: ? ? ?

Elder Sister had said she won't eat?

Lies!!!


[Note] Little cabbage is a folk song in Hebei.

The author has something to say: Da Qiao: Huo Chi harmed me. My elder sister image is gone!

Huo Chi: It was the popsicle owner who harmed me qaq
