Chapter 377 - 0377: Slaughtering Pigs and Catching Fish 1_1
Just as Yuejin’s mother was showing Feng Qingxue out with a thousand words of gratitude, they ran into Lu Jiang, who had come to pick her up.
"Oh, Ajiang is here to pick you up again? He really can’t stop worrying about you, huh!" Yuejin’s mother couldn’t help but tease.
Feng Qingxue’s face turned pink, she pulled her grey scarf up to cover half her face, "Auntie, you really shouldn’t tease us. Xibao must be missing me because he brought Xibao to look for me." Even if Lu Jiang missed her, she had to say it was on Xibao’s behalf, because, in this era, expressions of affection between men and women were not allowed to be too conspicuous.
"Ahah!" Xibao was happily perched on Lu Jiang’s neck, his cheerful squeals corresponding to his mother’s words. As for his father, he was being assaulted by the small chubby hands that didn’t hesitate to reach out for her as soon as his mother’s figure came into sight.
Lu Jiang held him up high with both hands, "Oy, oy oy, my little boss, stop wiggling!"
Xibao ignored him, just kept staring at Feng Qingxue. Angry about the fact that she hadn’t come to pick him up, he started to act up, screaming and hitting even harder.
"Xibao is so likable, he’s so fair and chubby, really adorable." Yuejin’s mom was extremely envious, wondering when her own grandson would grow up to be like that. Wearing a tiger hat and a red scarf, his cheeks were fatter and whiter than ever, his eyes big and dark, he really looked like the little cherub held by the Goddess of Mercy in the old traditional paintings.
Feng Qingxue laughed, "Children can’t handle being praised so much. You should get back home, it’s cold outside. My child’s father is here to pick me up, I should be heading home now."
"Well, I won’t hold you back then. Be careful on the road though, it gets slippy once the snow melts. Xiaoxue, thanks for today." After saying this, Yuejin’s mother heaved a sigh of relief and hurried back to look after her eldest grandson.
Her daughter-in-law was too lazy, as his mother-in-law, she could only work a bit harder.
