Five years later.
Yun Cheng.
"Su! Xiao! Nian!"
Meng Shiqing went to the bathroom and found Su Xiaonian趴 in front of her computer again, typing randomly on her manuscript.
Fortunately, she was just typing randomly and didn't delete her manuscript. Otherwise, she would have to spank Su Xiaonian's little butt!
"I was wrong, godmother." Su Xiaonian blinked her big, watery eyes and grabbed Meng Shiqing's arm with her two little hands, trying to calm her down.
However, Meng Shiqing really fell for it. She couldn't stand children acting cute, especially Su Xiaonian!
This child had perfectly inherited Su Yu and Xie Huaijing's good looks.
The little baby had fair skin, big and watery eyes, a slightly raised nose, and a cherry mouth. She was very beautiful.
Meng Shiqing felt like a sinner when this face started to act cute.
"Alright, alright, godmother doesn't blame you."
As she spoke, she held Su Xiaonian in her arms and looked at the adorable little face with great fondness.
It was a good thing she didn't insist on persuading Su Yu to abort this child back then. Thank goodness, thank goodness, thank goodness!
"Gurgle~"
At that moment, Su Xiaonian's stomach let out a sound of protest.
Su Xiaonian patted her round belly with her little hand and stuck out her tongue playfully. "Godmother, I'm hungry."
When Meng Shiqing saw this, she quickly closed her eyes and turned her head away from Su Xiaonian. "Don't look at me. I don't know how to cook. At most, I can cook rice. You'll have to wait for your mommy for the rest."
"Humph." Su Xiaonian pursed her lips, crossed her arms, and made a dissatisfied sound. "I'm a little baby, so it's fine, but you're an adult. You're not ashamed to be a big baby."
"I'm not ashamed, I'm not ashamed!" Meng Shiqing crossed her arms like Su Xiaonian and said smugly, "Your mommy loves it when I act like her big baby. Are you jealous? Are you jealous? Teehee!"
"Childish." Su Xiaonian rolled her eyes in annoyance, always feeling that her godmother's mental age was lower than hers.
While the big and small were still playing around, Su Yu also came home from work and bought vegetables.
As soon as Su Yu entered the door, the two ran over and hugged her tightly, one hugging her left leg and the other hugging her right leg, making Su Yu sweat involuntarily.
"What are you two doing, let go."
Su Xiaonian hugged Su Yu's leg with both hands, her face pressed against her leg, and said dissatisfiedly: "Godmother wants to fight for favor with me, I said I am Mommy's little baby, and Godmother said she is Mommy's big baby!"
Meng Shiqing was not convinced, and said aggrievedly: "Xiao Yuyu, do you say that I am not." "
Su Yu was helpless, bent over and picked up Su Xiaonian with one hand, and lifted Meng Shiqing up with the other: "You are all my babies, one is a little baby and the other is a big baby, not too much or not too little."
"Okay, you two go and play and wait to eat, I'm going to cook."
"Okay." The two said in unison.
Su Yu went to the kitchen to cook, and Meng Shiqing was responsible for picking up Su Xiaonian and going to the living room to play.
Long before Su Yu got off work, Meng Shiqing had already cooked the rice in advance, she just needed to cook the dishes.
Today is Su Xiaonian's birthday, she bought a lot of dishes, planning to make cola chicken wings, fish-flavored shredded pork and Buddha jumping over the wall that Su Xiaonian loves, as well as Mapo tofu and steamed egg with minced meat that Meng Shiqing loves.
There are also guests coming today, she plans to make a few more small dishes, as well as lychee meat, steamed fish, and finally a bowl of chicken soup.
When the dishes were almost done, the aroma wafted from the kitchen to the noses of the two, one big and one small followed the smell to the kitchen, looking at the dishes on the table, the two of them drooled.
"Don't be stunned, Ah Qing come and help me clean the dishes, Su Xiaonian is responsible for serving the dishes on the table."
"Received!" The two said in unison, then the doorbell rang, Su Xiaonian took small steps and ran to open the door.
"Mommy, Uncle Qi is here!"
Su Xiaonian shouted happily, clapping her little hands, to welcome Qi Nian's arrival.
Three years ago, Qi Nian transferred to the same hospital as Su Yu's family in Yun Cheng. At first, when she met Qi Nian in the hospital, Su Yu was a little surprised. Qi Nian was doing well in Beijing, so why did he come to Yun Cheng?
Qi Nian's reason was that he wanted to change his environment, and Su Yu didn't say anything more.
The two of them were acquaintances, so sometimes Su Yu would invite Qi Nian to her house for dinner in their daily lives.
She would do this because she once found out that Qi Nian always ate takeout at the hospital at noon.
Su Yu thought that takeout was somewhat unhealthy, and since they were acquaintances, it would only be an extra bowl and a pair of chopsticks anyway.
After Su Yu sent out the invitation, Qi Nian agreed right away, and he would often come over for dinner whether he had something to do or not.
When Qi Nian entered the door, he picked up Su Xiao Nian with one hand, then raised his other hand to show her the gift: "Look, what did Uncle bring you?"
"It's my favorite Kuromi!"
Su Xiao Nian's eyes then caught sight of the cake in a transparent box next to the gift, and she exclaimed, "And a Kuromi cake!"
Su Xiao Nian's current favorite was Kuromi.
She quickly hugged the Kuromi doll in her arms, then gave Qi Nian a big kiss and said sweetly, "Thank you, Uncle Qi, Uncle Qi is the best to me!"
Meng Shi Qing, who was helping out in the kitchen, rolled her eyes at Su Xiao Nian: "I wonder who was saying a few days ago that Mommy was the best to me, Mommy was the best to me, and today it's Uncle Qi who's the best to me again, Su Xiao Nian, you're so fickle."
"Humph," Su Xiaonian made a face at Meng Shiqing.
The smile on Qi Nian's face did not diminish as he carried Su Xiaonian to the kitchen door.
Su Yu, who was still busy, caught a glimpse of Qi Nian out of the corner of her eye and exclaimed, "Why did you come so soon? I still have soup that's not ready yet. It might take another ten minutes or so. Go sit down and rest for a while."
"It's fine."
As he spoke, he carried Su Xiaonian in one hand and dragged her head towards the living room with the other. Su Xiaonian liked Qi Nian very much, and from time to time, she would grab fruits from the plate and stuff them into Qi Nian's mouth.
After a while, the soup was finally ready. Su Yu placed everyone's soup on their respective tables. She called out gently, "Doctor Qi, Niannian, you can wash your hands and eat."
"I'm coming, Mommy!"
Su Xiaonian walked towards the bathroom with her short legs, and Qi Nian followed behind Su Niannian. From time to time, he would reach out to protect her, afraid that she would fall and bite the dog in the next second.
After everyone was seated, Su Yu divided the soup into four small bowls and served a bowl to each person.
As soon as Su Xiaonian and Meng Shiqing sat down at the table, they couldn't help but start eating like gluttons.
Su Yu couldn't help but angrily scold: "You two don't eat too much, or you won't be able to eat cake later."
"Sigh."
Hearing this, Su Xiaonian put her hands together and raised them above her head, muttering, "In order to eat the cake, I can only sacrifice these dishes. I'm sorry, cola chicken wings, I'm sorry, fish-flavored shredded pork!"
Su Yu covered her forehead: "You can't even shut your mouth while eating, you little drama queen."
Meng Shiqing didn't care if she could eat the cake later.
She only knew that the dishes Su Yu made were delicious, and it would be a shame not to finish them.
