Chapter 242: Afraid the Child Won’t Have Milk
She picked up the measuring tape, measuring Jian Ming’s dimensions, only to discover that Jian Ming’s physique was quite similar to Jian Zhiqing’s. Although Jian Ming is now in his middle age, his figure is still standard, without the slightest hint of a belly, quite unlike those pudgy, pot-bellied, middle-aged, greasy uncles of later years.
She took note of the measurements and went inside to draw the pattern, also leaving some space for father and son to chat.
Qin Xiangnuan was not very adept at designing clothes, as she had never been exposed to it before. She simply modified the clothes she had seen in later years and made them. What she didn’t know was that this could also be considered the first step in design.

The school and the Education Bureau placed great importance on the dance that was going to participate in a multi-province performance, so many professionals were invited, and the primary school students embarked on another round of dance practice.

More people were coming to the house now. Just as she got home, she saw a familiar figure at the door.

"Nuannuan, you’re back?" She greeted Qin Xiangnuan with a smile, as talkative as ever, without any airs of being an official’s wife. Moreover, she liked Qin Xiangnuan very much since she first came over and often dropped by since then.
"Sister-in-law, who’s come back?"
