After all Little Xinxin's eager anticipation, Shen Xuanrun finally found time to take her on a picnic!
Gu Weichen, Gu Maojie, Jiang Ziluo, and Du Jianguo came along too, as did, of course, the newly minted father Yan Lang and the newly minted aunt Yan Nana.
Yan Nana followed behind Yan Lang with extreme reluctance, occasionally getting pulled away by Shen Xuanrun to help with the work.
Shen Xuanrun said, "Miss Yan, we're short-handed. There's a very light cardboard box here that we need your help carrying."
Yan Nana said reluctantly, "Why not just have the servants do this sort of thing? Why insist on doing it ourselves?"
Shen Xuanrun, who had already walked away carrying a cardboard box, did not hear this.
Shen Qianxin asked in confusion, "Can't Auntie Yan even do things like this? Does she need servants to help her?"
Yan Nana was furious. "You little brat, do you even know how to talk to people?!"
Gu Maojie said calmly, "Xinxin, don't say that about Auntie Yan. She has her pride too. She'll definitely get angry if you say that, unless she's broad-minded."
Little Xinxin said in sudden understanding, "Oh, Auntie Yan is so old, so she must have been through a lot. She must be very broad-minded and definitely won't get angry, right?"
Yan Nana: (ノ=Д=)ノ┻━┻.
"Do you even know how to talk to people? Have you got no manners at all?!"
Yan Lang, who happened to be passing by, said sternly, "Nana! How could you say that to Little Xinxin! She's still so young. How could you bully her? You're a grown woman..."
Yan Nana instantly shrank back like a frightened quail.
Little Xinxin grinned at Yan Lang. "Uncle Yan, don't scold Auntie Yan like that. She's so old, but she still has her pride."
