Chapter 943 - 944 Gathering tuition fees_1
"Cousin-in-law!" Luo Linhao came from the front yard, teased the two little dumplings for a moment, then said, "I think there’s something even funnier than what you’ve heard, just not sure if you’re interested in hearing it?"
"What is it?"
Yang Chuxia glanced at him upon hearing this and then turned her attention back to the two little dumplings. She had noticed that over the past few days the children were sleeping less, staying awake for long periods once they opened their eyes, not seeming to look at anything in particular, just clutching their little fists and waving them around, thoroughly enjoying their own playtime.
If someone teased them with an object, they would just keep staring at you.
"About my cousin?"
"Your cousin?" Yang Chuxia looked up at the person beside her, Ye Zi’an, "Do you have something that makes you the butt of a joke?"
Ye Zi’an appeared quite clueless and calmly said, "Not at all!" He then pulled out a book from behind and started to read the "Three Character Classic".
Yang Chuxia couldn’t help but feel a rush of emotions. I know you’re overexcited about being a new father, but you can’t still be this excited, can you?
The child can’t even speak yet, it’s still ten days shy of two months old. You’re already reading the "Three Character Classic" to him, are you sure he understands?
"Tsk, tsk, cousin, you shouldn’t deny it!" Luo Linhao then picked up a piece of candy from the table, put it in his mouth, and found it quite tasty—sour and sweet, no wonder Yunyun liked it so much. After tossing in two more pieces, he finally said, "I’ve heard that in Capital City, a young lady gave my cousin a gift. Although my cousin refused it, I still find it very funny..."
He couldn’t help laughing before he even finished his sentence.
Yang Chuxia gently tugged at one of the little dumplings’ hands, "Yangyang, your Uncle is being silly."
"Ah," the little dumpling responded to her.
"Yangyang, you’re awesome!" Yang Chuxia kissed the little dumpling’s fist. "Do you agree with Mommy? Uncle is very silly, right?"
The little dumpling responded with a big smile.
Delighted, she kissed the little dumpling’s cheek again.
While the mother and son were having a blast, the father and other son were completely unfazed by their surroundings—Ye Zi’an quietly read his book, while the other little dumpling clenched his fist and looked up at the book in Ye Zi’an’s hands; if you didn’t know better, you might think he was really engrossed in listening.
Seeing that no one else had much of a reaction, Luo Linhao felt pretty bored, so he stopped laughing and snorted, "I heard that in Capital City, a young lady gave my cousin whitening cream and freckle-removing cream made by Brother Shaoling, worth a hundred silver taels per bottle."
"Oh," Yang Chuxia responded calmly and then turned to ask Ye Zi’an, "Did someone really give you that?"
Ye Zi’an was a bit surprised and then nodded.
"Then why didn’t you accept it?"
Ye Zi’an shifted his gaze from the book, "Was I supposed to accept it?"
Yang Chuxia nodded firmly, "Of course you should accept it! A hundred silver taels a bottle, two bottles are two hundred silver taels. Two hundred silver taels, oh, that’s enough for Lele and Yangyang’s tuition fees when they go to school in the future."
"Really?" Ye Zi’an cracked a slight smile, "Next time something like this happens, I’ll remember to accept it and hand it over to you to manage, to help save up for our son’s tuition fees."
"Exactly, that’s the way!" Yang Chuxia said, pulling at Yangyang again, "Sweetheart, look how much Mommy loves you, starting to save for your tuition fees from now on. You must study hard in the future, just like your dad."
Luo Linhao, standing nearby, was already dumbfounded, watching the two go back and forth, he finally shuddered, turned, and walked out the door. He felt he just couldn’t take it anymore—two fools together were a sight for sore eyes and sore ears.
