Qi Sheng kept his eyes glued to the TV and did not respond to his wife immediately.
Yun Xiaofang slapped him on the arm. He jumped and turned to look at her anxiously. “What happened?”
“Why don’t you care about your daughter at all? Are you really her biological father?”
“How did you know I didn’t care about her?” Qi Sheng asked, feeling wronged.
“Then tell me, what happened between her and Yin Ziyuan?” Yun Xiaofang asked unhappily.
“How could I know? Leave them alone. Besides, there’s no reason for us to rush as her family.” Qi Sheng knew Yun Xiaofang’s temper well, so he could only say in a softened tone, “Moreover, our daughter is beautiful and well-educated. What are you so anxious about? Even if Yin Ziyuan isn’t the right one, there will be someone else. How many boys liked her when she was in school? Why weren’t you anxious at that time?”
“Bullsh*t. That’s totally different. Falling in love at an early age would affect her grades in school, but she’s almost thirty years old now. Is she still a student?” Yun Xiaofang was even more dissatisfied.
Qi Sheng immediately said, “Why did you pad her age? She’s only twenty-eight years old. She’s still young.”
Different from Yun Xiaofang who was quite worried, Qi Sheng was calm and cool. After all, he had been blinded by his paternal feelings toward his daughter. In his eyes, Qi Mei was still a little girl. Even if his baby girl didn’t get married for the rest of her life, he would take care of her.
…
The next day was the weekend, so Qi Mei was at home catching up on sleep.
After dinner, Yun Xiaofang knocked on the door of her bedroom. “Your father and I are going to the supermarket. Do you want to go with us?”
“I don’t want to.” Qi Mei was lying on the bed.
Yun Xiaofang couldn’t hold it anymore and directly opened the door. “Why do you lie in bed all day on weekends? Why don’t you go date…”
“Okay! I’m going with you guys!” Qi Mei stood up before her mother could finish speaking, afraid that her mother would mention Yin Ziyuan again.
However, before they left, her father had to use the toilet because he had a stomach upset, so they had to go without him. Yun Xiaofang rolled her eyes. She turned around and saw Qi Mei’s pants with gaudy cartoon patterns. Strictly speaking, it was just casual loungewear.
“Are you sure you want to go out like this?” Yun Xiaofang frowned.
Qi Mei looked down and said indifferently, “It’s quite convenient. Aren’t we going to the supermarket downstairs? Do I need a dress?”
“None of the young girls will go out in those clothes like you, okay?” Yun Xiaofang complained in disgust.
Qi Mei didn’t want to talk. Having been controlled by Yun Xiaofang since she was young, she was a little tired now and didn’t want to care about anything.
They pottered through the supermarket and bought a bunch of groceries. However, when they were about to reach home, Yun Xiaofang suddenly remembered something and said, “We’re out of cooking wine. Go back and buy one.”
“We’ve already had dinner tonight. You don’t need to cook any more today. Can’t I get one tomorrow?” Qi Mei was a little frustrated. Although it was already evening, the weather was still hot. She was covered in sweat while walking, so she was too lazy to go back.
“Fine.” Yun Xiaofang glared at her. “Then you need to get up early tomorrow morning to buy it.”
“All right, Mom, I’ll go now,” Qi Mei said. She sauntered to a convenience store by the roadside, bought a bottle of cooking wine, and prepared to go back. She lived in the city center, and there were a few old Western-style houses next to her neighborhood. She glanced down the wall and saw the elegant garden in an old house. She couldn’t help sneering at Yin Ziyuan in her heart. He said he was ambitious, then why didn’t he go find a rich woman who could buy him a courtyard home? It was nearly impossible for him to achieve that goal for the rest of his life!
After a few steps, she saw Yun Xiaofang standing beside a car. “Mom,” she shouted.
Yun Xiaofang beckoned her over. As soon as she approached, Qi Mei saw an old lady standing beside her mother.
“Qi Mei, come and greet Grandma Xiao,” Yun Xiaofang said with a smile.
“Hello, Grandma Xiao.” Qi Mei greeted.
“This is Qi Mei? If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t have been able to recognize her. She’s really getting more and more beautiful.” The old lady grinned, her face full of joy.
Qi Mei sized up the old woman and suddenly shouted in surprise, “You are that Grandma Xiao who makes the traditional snack Ludagun?” She remembered that when she was in high school, there was an old couple who set up a stall nearby. They made the old-style snack, Ludagun. It tasted very good and was famous far and wide. At that time, many people would drive over to buy it. She liked it so much that she could eat it six times a week. It was a pity that after she went to university, the old couple stopped the business
“Wow, you still remember. I remember that you always came to eat at that time.” Grandma Xiao laughed heartily when she heard this.
“Grandma Xiao moved here. We’ll be neighbors from now on,” Yun Xiaofang said.
“That’s great!” Qi Mei was pleasantly surprised, but then she suddenly thought of something…
