On the night the Shanghai socialite accompanied the military officer, he broke his vow.

Chapter 100 The Old Money-Loser
"Jin Yue, if it weren't for you, these two children probably wouldn't have survived. You saved their lives, so it's only right that they take care of you in the future."

Li Xiuying explained.

Song Jinyue knew their intentions and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, from now on I'll have a godson and a goddaughter too."

The thought of having someone to take care of her at such a young age brought a smile to her lips, making her features even more delicate and charming.

Seeing that she agreed, both Grandma Xiao and Li Xiuying smiled.

"Alright, alright, Jin Yue, Xiao Fu, please sit down for a while. The dishes are ready, I'll go and bring them out now, and we'll start eating in a bit."

Grandma Xiao hurried off to the kitchen, her legs nimble and her energy surpassing that of many young people in the real world.

No wonder netizens say that sixty or seventy years old is the perfect age to go out and explore.

Besides Song Jinyue and Fu Sinian, Grandma Xiao also invited several people who were on good terms with Li Xiuying, including Wang Lichun and Liu Yuwen.

Several people were gathered around the bed looking at the child.

"These two little guys seem to have changed again after just a few days."

"Everyone says that sons resemble their mothers and daughters resemble their fathers, but I think An'an looks more like Sister-in-law Xiuying, and Pingping looks more like Commissioner Xiao."

"It's good to be like Sister Xiuying; she'll grow up to be fair-skinned."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Xiao Zhengwei's voice came from outside.

Why do I hear people talking badly about me?

Caught red-handed, Wang Meili looked at Xiao Zhengwei with a sullen expression. "Ahem, Zhengwei, you misunderstood. I didn't say you were dark-skinned. I just thought it would be better for a young lady to be fair-skinned."

Well, the more you try to explain, the worse it gets.

"That foul mouth!"

Wang Meili felt increasingly uneasy as she spoke, so she stopped talking and slapped her mouth.

"Hahahahaha."

Her actions caused everyone to burst into laughter.

It's rare to see Wang Meili, this fiery little pepper, get her comeuppance.

Xiao Zhengwei also smiled. Since Li Xiuying gave birth safely, he has been smiling more and more.

Every day when I come home and see Li Xiuying and her two children, I feel incredibly content.

Yang Bochuan: "My younger brother and sister are so small. When will they be able to speak?"

Yang Baicheng: "Mom, I want a little sister too. Shall we bring her home later?"

The twin brothers, one after the other, propped themselves up on the bed with their hands, their eyes bright and fixed on the baby.

The names of the two children were chosen by Li Xiuying: Xiao Suiping for their son and Xiao Suian for their daughter.

The siblings suffered even before they were born, and Li Xiuying only hopes that they can live peacefully year after year.

Wang Lichun, who had been in a good mood, suddenly felt her head buzzing after hearing what the two of them said.

She shouldn't have brought those two brats with her!

"Want to take your little sister home?"

Wang Lichun looked at Yang Baicheng and Yang Baichuan.

The older brother, Yang Baicheng, nodded eagerly, while the younger brother, Yang Baichuan, said to Wang Lichun with a well-behaved and sensible expression, "Mom, I'm not picky. It's fine to take my brother home too."

Wang Lichun: "..."

He grabbed the two brothers by the ears in each hand and pulled them away from the bedside.

"You two are already causing enough trouble, and now you want a younger brother or sister? I think you two are deliberately trying to exhaust me!" Yang Baicheng: Waaah, I already have a younger brother, what's wrong with wanting a younger sister?

Yang Baichuan: Why do I only have an older brother? I also want my younger siblings to call me older brother.

-

After the meal, Song Jinyue went directly to the hospital.

Xu Cuicui's condition has stabilized, and the director of the Women's Federation is taking care of her in the delivery room.

She gave birth to a girl, and both mother and daughter are safe and sound.

Although Luo Shufen was prone to causing trouble, she was, after all, the child's grandmother. When Ma Aiying returned to the family compound, she took a detour and told her about it.

"Luo Shufen, Cui Cui has given birth. Mother and daughter are safe. Cui Cui just had a C-section and can't get out of bed yet. Hurry up and cook some food and take it to her."

"By the way, Cui Cui is too thin and won't have enough breast milk to feed the baby for a while. Make some rice cereal for now so the baby won't go hungry. If Cui Cui still doesn't produce milk by tomorrow, go buy some goat milk or formula."

After Ma Aiying finished explaining everything she needed to, and was about to go home, Luo Shufen spat on the ground.

"She's just a good-for-nothing, and she expects me to serve her? Goat milk is such a precious thing, how could a good-for-nothing like her afford to drink it? If she doesn't have milk to feed the child, then let her go hungry. If she starves to death, it's just her bad luck!"

Upon learning that Xu Cuicui had given birth to a daughter, Luo Shufen's already sharp and mean face became even more vicious.

He even said things like he wanted to starve his own granddaughter to death.

Ma Aiying's worldview was shattered, and she stared at her in disbelief.

"Luo Shufen, how dare you speak like that? Isn't the child Cui Cui gave birth to your granddaughter? You keep saying your granddaughter is a money-losing burden, then what are you? A money-losing burden?"

"It's like being stabbed in the butt with a knife! What an eye-opener! It's really unlucky for Cui Cui to have to suffer the wrath of a vicious old hag like you!"

"Sangen asked you to take care of Cuicui, but you've been lazy and good-for-nothing all day long, making Cuicui do all the housework while you're heavily pregnant. Heaven is watching what people do. You'll get your comeuppance sooner or later for tormenting your daughter-in-law like this!"

Ma Aiying is also straightforward and couldn't stand Luo Shufen's behavior, so she started arguing with her directly.

"Ma Aiying, you damned woman, how dare you curse me? Get out! You're not welcome in our house!"

Luo Shufen jumped up and shooed the person away, hands on her hips.

Ma Aiying was too lazy to say anything more to her, so she scolded her a couple more times and went home.

Judging from Luo Shufen's words, she doesn't like this granddaughter at all, let alone cook for her or take care of Xu Cuicui and her daughter at the hospital.

Ma Aiying felt sorry for Xu Cuicui and also felt very sorry for her having such an unreasonable and bad mother-in-law.

"Mom, how is it? Has Cuicui given birth?"

As soon as Ma Aiying arrived home, her daughter-in-law, Liu Qinghe, came out of the kitchen.

"She gave birth, but Cuicui's baby was breech and she was too weak to deliver naturally, so she had to have a C-section. She's still in the hospital. That old hag Luo Shufen is upset that Cuicui gave birth to a girl, so she refuses to go to the hospital to take care of her and her baby. I'll cook some millet porridge for Cuicui and boil two eggs, and then I'll take them to her later."

As Ma Aiying was about to walk towards the kitchen, Liu Qinghe stopped her.

"Mom, stop what you're doing and go eat. The food's getting cold. I'll cook some porridge for Cuicui. I remember we still have some brown sugar at home, so I'll put it in the millet porridge to nourish Cuicui's stomach and replenish her blood."

After Liu Qinghe finished speaking, she turned around and went to the kitchen.

Watching her departing figure, Ma Aiying's eyes suddenly felt hot for some reason.

Her husband passed away early, and she raised her three children on her own. Fortunately, her son and daughter-in-law are both very sensible and filial.

After witnessing the distressing situation in Luo Shufen's family, Ma Aiying became even more determined to treat her daughter-in-law well from now on, just like her own daughter.

Thinking of what Wang Meili said at the hospital today, Ma Aiying walked towards the kitchen.

"Mom, why are you coming in again? Leave this to me, you go and eat."

"Qinghe, I have something to tell you."
