Chapter 684: Bits and Pieces from the Full Month Banquet
Xu Mumu stayed in bed for a few days but couldn’t sit still anymore. The confinement period was really torturous. Her body was in good shape, with a superpower, so she recovered quickly. After just over a week, the loose skin on her belly tightened back, and she didn’t look like a mother who had given birth to three children.
Every day, Yin Yang wouldn’t let her play on her phone for too long. With so many people in the family taking care of the two kids, she didn’t need to worry much.
Moreover, after playing those little mobile games for a while, she was getting a bit impatient with them.
Fortunately, in just a few days, Xia Chengyuan brought her some good news.
The messaging app that Xia Chengyuan developed was already showing traces of those future software applications. It looked quite promising. The next step was to promote these applications.
The efficiency of Xia Chengyuan made Xu Mumu very satisfied. With these done, she was planning to let Xia Chengyuan venture into game development.
As for how to promote it, after giving them some suggestions, Xu Mumu didn’t concern herself further.
But it was evident that Xia Chengyuan and his team’s efficiency was commendable. Within a few days, more and more people began using these chat platforms, and official media also joined.
Though there wasn’t much tabloid news at this time, the national policy updates were still quite engaging to read.
After giving Xia Chengyuan and his team some more modification suggestions, she left them to it.
With the phone, seeing all sorts of news on it, Xu Mumu found that even the news in this era was quite interesting.
The chat software on the phone gradually gained popularity, and Xu Mumu benefited from it as her wallet thickened once again.
Although she hadn’t fully recouped her previous investments yet, it wouldn’t take much longer before she started making money.
With the emergence of these chat apps, it was like a stimulus to the industry, as other various types of software slowly began appearing.
Xu Mumu was pleased with this outcome. She hoped that this industry could flourish.
Very soon, it was time to end her confinement. Yin Yang had always wanted Xu Mumu to have an extended confinement, but Xu Mumu refused, having had enough of staying in bed.
The full moon banquet for the two kids was something Yin Yang had long planned to hold lavishly. The hotels were directly chosen from the ones under the Yin Family’s name, and many guests were invited.
The guests from the Xu Family’s side were also invited, and their accommodations were arranged.
Xu Mumu dressed in a gown that had been prepared for a long time. Styled beautifully by a stylist Yin Yang found, she attended the full moon banquet. She and Yin Yang each carried one of the children and walked into the banquet.
A lot of guests came on this day. Doudou behaved obediently, following Xu Mumu and the others. Yin Yang took the little guy around to meet his friends in the business world, formally introducing his son to them for the first time, which spoke volumes.
The two kids cooperated well, without any fuss, and Xu Mumu noticed that the little ones seemed quite bold, not afraid of strangers at all.
The two children received countless praises, and whether they were genuine, Xu Mumu didn’t care. Anyway, her own relatives all adored the two kids, and they received a heap of gifts.
Xu Mumu rubbed her ankle, feeling quite exhausted from hosting the banquet. It was her first time wearing high heels in this life, making her quite uncomfortable. She had gotten used to wearing flats at home, and it wasn’t like she could wear heels in her previous life fighting zombies.
"Mumu, you rest here well, I’ll go handle things outside." Yin Yang looked affectionately at his little wife. Her ankle was already red, and if she wore the shoes any longer, her feet would swell.
"Alright." Xu Mumu nodded.
Deciding not to go out again, Xu Mumu went to wash off her makeup properly, wanting to spend some quality time with her sons.
Xu Mumu removed her makeup, and when she came out, Xinyao was already waiting for her.
"What brings you here? I saw you chatting with your girlfriends earlier." Xu Mumu asked with a smile.
"Girlfriends, please. They’re just trying to cozy up to me because of my current situation. It’s so annoying. So, I thought I’d come and see the two little treasures." Xinyao pouted. She had been doing quite well in recent years and had recently accomplished something major, gearing up for a promotion. So many people were trying to curry favor and strengthen relationships.
She knew she might encounter such situations attending the full moon banquet, but it still made her unhappy once it happened.
Feeling too annoyed, she decided to stay here and accompany Xu Mumu instead.
"That’s quite normal. I face the same thing when I go out, but I feel more pleased looking at my babies," said Xu Mumu with a smile.
"When I came in, I saw someone trying to arrange a future marriage for your Doudou," Xinyao said with a gleaming smile.
"What’s to worry about? The children’s father is here." Xu Mumu twitched the corner of her mouth but still trusted Yin Yang fully. He cared even more for their kids than she did, although he did wish for a little princess.
Indeed, as Xu Mumu predicted, the person didn’t get their way. Yin Yang scorned them so sharply that they couldn’t say anything. If it weren’t the twins’ full moon banquet today, he would’ve thrown that brainless fool out.
Besides that bit of displeasure, the twins’ full moon banquet was quite a success.
After sending off the guests, those who couldn’t return were arranged to rest here.
Xu Mumu watched the two kids, who were sleeping sweetly. Doudou now especially liked his two younger brothers, peering intently into their cradle.
"Mom, do you think the brothers will like the gifts I gave them?" Doudou looked expectantly at Xu Mumu. He had used his own money to buy two very cool toy cars for his younger brothers.
"Once they’re a bit older, they’ll know. They’re too young to understand anything now," Xu Mumu said with amusement. The toys he carefully chose couldn’t be played with by the little ones just yet.
"The brothers are growing so slowly." Doudou reached out to poke the chubby cheeks of his brother. As his brothers grew, they became fairer. Even though they weren’t sisters, he still really liked them.
"You grew up the same way when you were little." Xu Mumu patted her son’s head. She was glad that the little guy liked his siblings. With the arrival of the younger ones, the family’s attention shifted more towards them, and Doudou was a bit overlooked. Fortunately, the little fellow didn’t get jealous, which eased Xu Mumu’s mind.
Seeing so much of modern news, she sometimes feared her son wouldn’t accept his younger siblings and might become jealous.
She even prepared herself for a heartfelt talk with him. But regrettably, her son was so sensible that it made her heart ache a little.
