Chapter 564: Xu Xue Is in a Relationship
"That’s true." Li Caixia nodded. Nowadays, even the balcony at home doesn’t have those small vegetables planted anymore. The family doesn’t lack money now and buys vegetables to eat every day.
They wandered around here, and Xu Mumu even took them to see the nearby houses that hadn’t been sold yet. However, the houses close to Xu Mumu’s place were basically all sold; those not yet sold were slightly farther away.
"Are houses selling so well here?" Li Caixia was a bit bewildered when she learned this. Are there so many people with money? She wanted to be closer to her daughter.
"The location here is good, and the houses built are top-notch, so naturally, many people are willing to buy houses here." Xu Mumu said with a smile. Although the policy had only been open for over two years, with this favorable trend, those who were a bit bolder managed to save up some money.
Xu Mumu didn’t know how they planned the housing matters, and she hadn’t heard any updates about it. The New Year arrived quickly.
Li Caixia and the others went to the second family early, since they were celebrating the New Year there this year. Xu Mumu didn’t go over.
Xu Mumu stayed at home, helping Madam Chun prepare lunch, while the little one was looked after by both elderly persons.
She was still in her breastfeeding period, so Madam Chun had specially prepared some meals for her, avoiding things with strong flavors.
Xu Mumu glanced at the other dishes prepared by Madam Chun, vibrant and red even before going into the pot. She could imagine how delicious they would be.
She hadn’t eaten such things in a long time, all for her little one.
"Madam, don’t look anymore, you can’t eat these yet. When the young master is off milk, I’ll make more for you." Madam Chun said somewhat helplessly, her eyes caught by Xu Mumu’s fiery gaze.
"I know." Xu Mumu said disheartened, holding back.
There was a big table full of food for lunch, particularly fragrant. Suitable dishes had been placed in front of her, while the stronger flavors were placed in front of Yin Yang and the others.
"You little rascal, laughing at me." Xu Mumu held Doudou, watching the little one laugh and tapped his forehead.
The little one thought his mom was playing with him, reaching out to grab Xu Mumu’s finger, refusing to let go, trying to stuff it into his mouth.
"No biting." Seeing the little one wanting to bite everything he put near his mouth, Xu Mumu gently told him. The little one didn’t understand anything at the moment; it was fruitless to say these things.
However, the little one was really strong, almost pulling Xu Mumu’s hand over.
"Is he hungry? I’ll go prepare some formula for him." Professor Song immediately offered.
"No need, Grandpa. He had formula half an hour ago; he’s just active right now, no need to feed him." Xu Mumu calmly replied. This little one perhaps inherited her superpower; he had quite an appetite. Apart from what she fed him, he drank quite a bit of formula too.
They had been feeding him like this all along. The two elders didn’t have experience, and since the child had never had any issues and was growing strong, they never saw a problem.
"Alright then." Professor Song thought so too; he was just fed not long ago. But this little one was truly lively, much more than Yin Yang when he was small. Though he didn’t see much of Yin Yang back then, he always had a stern face, unlike this little one who smiled brightly whenever someone played with him. This little one was especially easy to care for.
After lunch, Xu Mumu coaxed the little one to sleep when Li Caixia and the others returned.
"Sister-in-law, have some fruits. They were sent over by Fourth Uncle earlier." Xu Mumu brought over some washed apples.
"Thanks, sis. Is Doudou asleep?" Not seeing Doudou, Jiang Yuxiu was a bit disappointed.
"Yes, he sleeps around this time every day." Xu Mumu nodded with a smile.
"Sister, I want to take Doudou out to play, and show him to Kangkang." Fengfeng looked at his sister expectantly.
"What Kangkang? He’s your cousin." Xu Mumu lightly tapped the little one’s head, "Wait until Doudou wakes up before playing together." Xu Mumu said helplessly.
"When will Doudou wake up?" The little one was a bit dejected.
"Once you wake up from your nap, he’ll be awake." Xu Mumu said with a smile; Fengfeng usually took naps too.
’Then I’m going to nap now.’ The little one immediately ran back to sleep.
After Fengfeng left, Jiang Yuxiu began to tell Xu Mumu about what she saw at the second family.
"Sis, Second Sis has found a date." Jiang Yuxiu said with a smile.
Xu Mumu widened her eyes; Xu Xue found a date? It was unbelievable.
"Really? Who’s she seeing?" Xu Mumu asked curiously; she was dying to know, Xu Xue found someone? It’s so amazing, wasn’t she always into Huo Qingze?
Could it be that she saw there was no hope with Huo Qingze, so she gave up and found someone new?
"That guy’s called Xia Chengyuan, seems like a classmate from her school. He seems alright and pretty considerate towards Second Sis." Jiang Yuxiu shared today’s sightings with Xu Mumu, feeling that not joining the New Year celebration today was a massive loss for her sister-in-law.
Xia Chengyuan, why does this name sound familiar though, Xu Mumu fell into contemplation.
The course of events in the book had changed, and Xu Mumu seldom thought about what it contained, feeling like the memories associated with it were starting to blur.
Recalling these things now, Xu Mumu slightly furrowed her brows, thinking for quite some time until the memories cleared a bit.
Xu Mumu also remembered Xia Chengyuan, the devoted supporting male character in the book who admired Xu Xue. But with Huo Qingze as the comparison beforehand, Xu Xue only treated him as a friend. However, his future achievements weren’t lacking, apparently becoming a significant figure later on. Those befriending Xu Xue were remembered for their future success, choosing to associate with them.
Almost forgot about this person; suddenly hearing the name again, Xu Mumu once more remarked, none of the Male leads around Xu Xue was simple.
"Sis, what’s up?" Watching Xu Mumu falling into thought, Jiang Yuxiu waved her hand in front of Xu Mumu asking.
"Nothing, just recalled something. By the way, how are Xu Xue and her guy progressing? When are they getting married?" Xu Mumu asked curiously, remembering Xu Xue was determined to recruit a husband now, and Xia Chengyuan’s family conditions seemed decent, with his parents doing business. Although they had several sons, it was unlikely Xia Chengyuan would marry into another family.
