"Mom, are you sick? Why didn't you tell me something was wrong?"
"It's nothing, Mom, it's just an old problem. You're busy with work..."
"Mom," Xun Man disagreed, "Even if you're busy with work, don't I have the time to accompany you to the doctor?"
"I know that Xinyan is a filial child."
"Of course, Mom, have you finished your checkup? Give me your report, and I'll take you to..."
Bai Yaxin exclaimed, "How wonderful! A mother is considerate of her daughter, and a daughter is filial to her mother."
Yes, but this mother is here for a prenatal checkup.
ah?
"No need, Mom can manage on her own..."
Xun Man tried to stop Xun Xinyan, but Xun Xinyan had already gotten her hands on the order form. Xun Xinyan glanced at it and exclaimed incredulously, "Mom, you're pregnant???"
"I..."
Xun Man dared not meet Xun Xinyan's gaze.
Seeing her mother like this, Xun Xinyan felt heartbroken. She held Xun Man's hand and whispered, "Mom, I don't mean to blame you. I just can't accept it right now. After all, I haven't even met your partner yet, and you're getting on in years, you're considered an older mother. I'm worried about your safety."
" Xinyan," Xun Man stroked Xun Xinyan's hand, "Mom knows all this."
"Mom, when can I meet that uncle?"
Xun Man's expression stiffened. "Let's wait until later. I'll arrange for you to meet when there's a better opportunity."
"That's so irresponsible of him! He just let you come to the hospital alone. What if..."
"I'm all better, let's go."
Xun Xinyan twitched her ears. Strange, why did that voice sound so familiar?
The man walked over, took Xun Man's arm, and met Xun Xinyan's gaze.
Xun Xinyan exclaimed in shock, " Xiao Kun, how could it be you?"
Who would have thought that the daughter's boyfriend was also her mother's boyfriend?
Bai Yaxin of confusion.
Xun Xinyan's gaze fell on the hand Xiao Kun was using to hold Xun Man's arm. She sneered, "These past few days, I've suspected you've been cheating on me, but I never imagined that your affair would be with my mother!"
This statement caused a huge uproar in the bustling hospital.
Having an affair with one's mother-in-law? That's truly unheard of!
" Xinyan, I didn't know she was your mother..." Xiao Kun said anxiously, trying to grab Xun Xinyan's hand.
Xun Xinyan dodged it.
"What do you mean? If it weren't for my mother, would you be able to cheat on me with anyone you want?"
"I don't..."
" Xinyan, don't blame Xiao Xiao."
Xun Man's sudden question stunned Xun Xinyan. She fought back tears and asked, "Mom, what do you mean?"
[This means that Xun Man deliberately approached Xiao Kun; she wanted to test whether this man was truly devoted to her daughter.]
Did they end up testing their son-in-law in bed?
This world is truly magical.
Xun Xinyan could hardly believe that this was happening to her.
After explaining, Xun Man took Xun Xinyan's hand and said, " Xinyan, this man is unreliable. I'll abort the child. You can find another boyfriend."
Xun Xinyan's eyes were empty, and she choked out, "So, Mom, do you still think we're mother and daughter?"
"How could it not be?" Xun Man stroked Xun Xinyan's hair sickly. "In this world, only your mother loves you the most."
Xun Xinyan finally broke down; she pushed Xun Man's hand away and ran out.
Bai Yaxin was still in shock. She murmured, "How could such a thing happen?"
"Yes."
Lin Tingyue had heard plenty of gossip, but the direction this one took was truly unexpected.
After sitting in the lobby for a while, Bai Yaxin a message to Lin Rusong, Lin Rusong said he would be downstairs soon.
After exiting the elevator, Lin Rusong walked up to his wife and daughter. Lin Tingyue, seeing his exhausted appearance, asked, "Dad, what's wrong?"
"The old man is making a huge fuss, and Jiaxin is sulking with him and doesn't want to talk to him anymore."
Bai Yaxin seized on the key point and asked, "And what about you?"
I will carefully look for a caregiver.
"That's more like it. Let's go back then."
Lin Rusong put his arm around Bai Yaxin. "Okay, let's go."
On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the Lin Family was surprised to see Lin Tingyue leaving home so early.
Lin Rusong, holding his cup, said, "That's strange, Tingyue, why are you up so early?"
Lin Tingyue fastened the belt on her coat. "Dad, don't you know we welcome the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year?"
Lin Rusong: "..."
Lin Yuhuan asked, "Are you going to the Temple of the God of Wealth?"
Lin Tingyue nodded.
Lin Shengyan had been saving up for a long time, began to exert his influence. "I think we should invite a God of Wealth back to our home."
Lin Tingyue didn't catch the underlying meaning at all. She said, "Really? Second Brother, I support you!"
Lin Shengyan: "..."
Lin Tingyue, that money-grubber, can't understand a word, good or bad.
Lin Yuhuan put on his watch. "How about your older brother takes you there?"
"OK."
"In that case," Bai Yaxin said, "Let's all go and welcome the God of Wealth."
No one objected, and after finishing our meal, we went together to the nearest temple dedicated to the God of Wealth.
After driving the car that could seat six people, Bai Yaxin asked, "Are you all still wearing the talismans I gave you to ward off evil spirits?"
Lin Shengyan, "Mom, I don't even dare to take it off when I take a shower."
Bai Yaxin Lin Shengyan, "If it gets wet, the talisman is useless!"
Lin Shengyan covered his head, "I was just joking."
"You deserved to be beaten!"
Lin Shengyan: "..."
Ugh, such low status in the family.
They arrived at the temple of the God of Wealth, and not only did they worship the God of Wealth, but they also donated money to the temple for incense oil.
The temple offered them a vegetarian meal, Bai Yaxin she should go back to eat there. Around ten o'clock, she arrived at the villa gate.
Bai Yaxin nudged Lin Rusong, " Lin Rusong, am I seeing things? Why do I see a God of Wealth standing at our front gate?"
Lin Rusong said, "Wife, you're not seeing things, I saw it too."
The God of Wealth was holding a gold ingot in his arms, which was sparkling brightly.
[The God of Wealth has descended to earth! I'm welcoming him!]
Lin Tingyue opened the car door and rushed over, but she didn't control her strength and fell headfirst into the God of Wealth's arms.
" Miss Lin."
Lin Tingyue blinked and looked up. " Mr. Ying, what are you doing here?"
Ying An smiled and handed the gold ingot to Lin Tingyue, "I heard that we welcome the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."
Chapter 109
"I heard that Ying An, dressed in a theatrical costume, went to your doorstep and scattered gold coins at you?" Fan Qing asked, her eyes bright with curiosity as she linked arms with Lin Tingyue.
Lin Tingyue thought about it carefully, " Qingqing, what you said makes sense, doesn't it?"
"Oh my," Fan Qing lifted Lin Tingyue's chin, "Look at us, how prestigious our Yueyue is! Other people welcome the God of Wealth to the temple, but you're different, the God of Wealth comes directly to your door."
Lin Tingyue felt a little embarrassed by what she said, and she whispered, "Actually, I didn't expect that either."
"You're not the only one who didn't expect this, were you? Did your mom, your dad, your older brothers, your older sister, do they think of it?"
Lin Tingyue recalled their stunned expressions and scratched her face, "They probably didn't expect this either."
They were not only surprised, but they probably all thought Ying An had come to propose marriage, which terrified them.
Fan Qing looked up, "Hey, we're here. Yueyue, let's go in quickly."
"Good."
Lin Tingyue and Fan Qing went to the hot springs today.
As soon as they entered, Lin Tingyue was captivated by the rising steam from the hot spring pool. The two walked hand in hand to the edge of the pool, and Lin Tingyue exclaimed in surprise, " Qingqing, why is there a basket of flower petals here?"
Looking at the flower petals, Fan Qing said, "I heard that the theme of this hot spring is Huaqing Pool, just like when Consort Yang bathed here."
Did Consort Yang take flower petal baths back then?
"Isn't that how it's always portrayed in TV dramas?" Fan Qing said excitedly, " Yueyue, hurry up and get down, I'll scatter flower petals for you."
Lin Tingyue said speechlessly, " Qingqing, aren't you bored?"
"Oh dear, hurry up and go!"
[I'll pamper my best friend myself.]
Lin Tingyue went into the water, and countless petals were scattered by Fan Qing. Lin Tingyue also found it fun. After Fan Qing came down, there were still more than half of the petals left in the basket. The two of them threw petals at each other, and for a moment they were covered in the scent of roses.
Just as the two were having a great time, they heard a sound from the hot spring pool next door.
"It's nothing, I'll have your partner get it."
It sounds like they forgot to bring something.
"No need to trouble yourself, sister-in-law, I'll go find him myself."
"There's no trouble at all. You're already in the water. I'll go find your boyfriend."
"Baby, come here for a second..."
The voice faded into the distance.
Fan Qing first said, "The soundproofing in this hot spring is terrible."
She then added, "But wasn't she just calling out someone else's boyfriend? Wasn't that a bit inappropriate?"
Lin Tingyue chuckled, " Qingqing, are you that curious?"
Fan Qing snorted, "Who doesn't want to eat melon seeds? Don't you?"
As she was talking, Fan Qing splashed water onto...
On Lin Tingyue's body.
The two fooled around for a while longer, then got a little tired and started eating by the pool. Just then, the woman who had just left the hot spring next door returned.
"I've already sent him to get it."
"Thank you, sister-in-law, but... why do you always call my boyfriend 'baby'?"
The sister-in-law looked embarrassed and said, "It's just an occupational hazard. I used to teach children at school, so it's a habit."
