Chapter 458 isn't much to talk about.
He's so lucky to have such a daughter.
His daughter deliberately sabotaged him, and his son wasn't much better.
Don't let this child's quiet and reserved nature fool you; when he does speak, he's quite cunning. With just a few words, he managed to sow discord among the other children, preventing them from playing together anymore.
"Alright, alright, it's getting late. I'll take you to pick out some clothes. I'll pick out an outfit for each of you today. Buy whatever you like."
Xu Sui, holding her two children's hands, didn't forget to call out to Baozhu and Jinbao as well.
Seeing this, Qin Yunzhou stepped forward and followed, using his body to block the people coming and going around, so that the children and Xu Sui would not be bumped into.
This department store is the largest in Fengyang County, and there are usually many people coming and going. If you're not careful, you might get bumped into.
Soon, Xu Sui picked out clothes that each of the children liked.
Yan Yan and Yao Yao are their own children, so they don't hold back and pick whatever they like.
However, Jinbao and Baozhu were clearly a bit timid. Neither of them dared to take the initiative to choose. Even when Xuexue let them choose, they only picked the cheapest clothes.
Xu Sui immediately saw through the children's thoughts. Without saying a word, she directly helped them choose the most suitable clothes.
"Baozhu, do you like this pink floral dress?"
This place is, after all, a small county town, and there are very few dresses specifically for children. There are only two or three, and they don't really have any particular style.
Baozhu had been staring at the pink floral dress without blinking, and Xu Sui had noticed it long ago.
"I...I like it." Baozhu's eyes lit up, and her voice became a little lighter. She looked up at Xu Sui.
"Auntie, is this really... for me?"
She only has one of these pretty little dresses; it was bought by her parents after saving up for a long time.
But Yao Yao seems to have a lot of dresses like that, and she really envies Yao Yao.
"Yes, this is for you. Here you go." Xu Sui patted her head and handed the dress to Baozhu after paying for it and getting the ticket.
Next, Xu Sui picked out a suitable outfit for Jinbao as well.
"Do you like the clothes your aunt picked out for you, Jinbao?"
To be honest, Jinbao doesn't look much like his parents, but his features are remarkably similar to his grandmother, Wang Yinhua, and he also bears some resemblance to Xu Fei.
"I like it, I like it very much, thank you Auntie, thank you Uncle." Jinbao carefully touched the new clothes in his hands, not daring to touch them too hard, for fear of damaging or getting them dirty.
He basically never gets to wear new clothes at home; all his clothes are altered from his father's old ones. Only during the Lunar New Year will his grandmother prepare new clothes for him.
This was the first time he had received such nice new clothes without any holidays or festivals.
"If you like it, that's good. Come on, let's wait a bit, we're going to a restaurant now, I'll take you there for dinner."
"Let's go back after we finish eating."
……
By the end of the morning, the children had quickly become acquainted and were chattering away.
At first, Jinbao and Baozhu were not talkative and were both very quiet, but Yaoyao was talkative and kept talking to them.
On the way home, Yao Yao even took out her own savings and bought a lot of White Rabbit milk candies, which she then shared with her parents, older brother, and older sister.
He planned to take the rest back and share them with his grandparents and maternal grandparents.
Especially my maternal grandmother. She was good to my mother and also very good to my siblings.
Grandma smells nice and is very pretty. She also knows how to dress up. When she stands next to Mom, they don't look like mother and daughter at all; they look more like older and younger sisters.
Yao Yao really likes her beautiful grandma.
Of course, she also liked her grandmother. Although her grandmother wasn't as pretty as her maternal grandmother, her grandmother was very kind to her and her brother.
After buying a lot of things with the children, Xu Sui and Qin Yunzhou took them back to the courtyard.
"You take Yao Yao and Bao Zhu home first, I'll take Jin Bao home." Xu Sui said to Qin Yunzhou as they were almost home.
Although the two houses are only a few steps apart, she was the one who brought the person out, so she definitely had to make sure the person got back safely.
Qin Yunzhou took Jinbao's hand and walked to the next room.
"I'll take them back myself. You take them back first, and I'll be right back."
He hadn't forgotten that although his wife and He Quan were siblings, their relationship was terrible, no different from that of strangers, or even worse.
It's best to avoid meeting in this situation as much as possible.
They're all family, so it doesn't matter who delivers the package. Xu Sui didn't insist, since it wasn't far at all, and Qin Yunzhou was more familiar with the situation next door than she was.
"Alright, then take the person back."
"Okay." Qin Yunzhou led Jinbao to the next room.
I had just stepped into the neighbor's yard, and hadn't even taken a few steps.
"Yunzhou, let's talk. You've been married to Suisui for so many years, but we've never sat down and had a proper chat."
He Quan appeared out of nowhere, looking at Qin Yunzhou, who was dressed in military uniform and had a tall and upright figure, with a complicated expression.
Then he noticed the new clothes Jinbao was wearing.
Just by looking at the material, you can tell it wasn't cheap; there's no need to say more about who bought it.
He thought... he thought that Xu Sui and Qin Yunzhou would dislike Jinbao because of his past with Liu Feng.
Qin Yunzhou glanced at He Quan, then raised his wrist to check the time, and gently shook his head.
"No, I have something to do."
"I've dropped off the child, so I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, he turned and left without giving He Quan, his brother-in-law, a second glance. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought he was a stranger.
He Quan instinctively took off after him and forcefully stopped him.
"Wait, wait, Yunzhou, I won't take up much of your time, just a few minutes. Let's find a place to talk properly, okay?"
He knew that whether it was Xu Sui, his brother-in-law Qin Yunzhou, or his younger brother Xu Fei, they were all successful, while he was the only one who was not.
Qin Yunzhou pushed He Quan aside, walked past him and went straight outside without looking back, his attitude neither warm nor cold.
"I'm sorry, I really have something to do."
"Besides, I don't think we have much to talk about."
Speaking of what happened back then, he still remembers the incident where He Quan's wife, Liu Feng, pushed Xu Sui, who was pregnant, to the ground.
Even He Quan, the elder brother, upon learning the truth, not only failed to stand by his sister's side but also pleaded for Liu Feng at every turn, offering no words of comfort or apology to his sister who had been in trouble.
Qin Yunzhou still remembers this incident to this day; he can't forget it, and he certainly can't pretend that nothing happened.
