His Beloved Treasure

Chapter 563: 166, his heart only has his wife.

Jiang Yan, upon hearing Mu Yichen’s words, dared not stay any longer, and incredulously looked at his sister-in-law and his wife before quickly following his uncle ahead, into the interior. The world of women was simply too terrifying for him.

Jiang Yan was the kind of person who never shared his private life with others. In his more than twenty years of life, apart from fighting wars and staying on guard, there were only Mu Qingxin and his son; nothing else mattered.

Mu Qingxin stayed glued to his side, sitting on the sofa next to him without a bone in her body, leaning against his shoulder.

Jiang Yan just glanced at her with a questioning look, hoping she would sit up straight since there were so many elders around to watch, but she insisted on clinging to him.

"Mu Qingxin, as a lady from a prominent family, don’t you know the basic etiquettes of sitting and standing properly?"

Feng Fanghua couldn’t stand it anymore and said something.

A pitiful Mu Qingxin retorted, "Mom, you don’t understand anything, don’t talk!"

Despite Mu Qingxin’s noncompliance, the young girl sitting next to Feng Fanghua straightened her hunched back thoroughly, as if fearing everyone would notice her poor posture. She cautiously examined the faces around her and held her back particularly straight.

Mu Qingxin, watching Huanhuan’s serious demeanor, couldn’t help but give an embarrassed cough and reluctantly let go of Jiang Yan.

"Look, even Huanhuan knows better than you!"

Feng Fanghua, seeing her granddaughter being so sensible, was quite relieved and continued to scold her daughter.

"Huanhuan, Huanhuan! Ever since Huanhuan arrived, you’ve had no eyes for Qingxin!"

Mu Qingxin complained and then called out to Huanhuan, "You little girl, come over to your aunt!"

Huanhuan got down from the sofa next to her grandmother and walked over to her aunt’s side.

The old master, seeing the little girl so obedient, couldn’t help but smile and said, "Huanhuan, this little girl, is indeed well-behaved!"

Well-behaved! Qin Mu watched her daughter pretending and couldn’t help but laugh, thinking that the elders must be fooled by this little girl, right?

When Huanhuan came over to Mu Qingxin, she also straightened her back forcefully. Sighing, Mu Qingxin patted her shoulders and told her, "Huanhuan, believe in your aunt, one shouldn’t be so rigid. Why be so tiresome all the time? In your own home, you can sit however you want. When you’re out, then you can pretend for those people."

Hearing her aunt’s words, Huanhuan couldn’t help but look at her uncle. Jiang Yan actually agreed with Mu Qingxin’s words, but in front of the elders, he didn’t dare to concur and only gave her an embarrassed yet polite smile.

"Is that how you teach a child? Does a hunched back look good?"

Just as Huanhuan was about to relax, her grandmother’s remark about looking good made her immediately straighten her back again; she thought looking good was more important after all, and it seemed like her mom always sat up straight too.

Later, Huanhuan went to Qin Mu’s side, thinking that she might be led astray if she stayed next to her aunt.

Seeing her daughter finally coming to her, Qin Mu happily embraced her and kissed her, making Huanhuan feel a ticklish sensation where she was kissed. She giggled and touched her small face, falling into her mother’s embrace. As she laughed, her neat white teeth and sparkling eyes both curved beautifully.

That evening, the family made dumplings, and they were quickly devoured.

But because Feng Fanghua noticed Qin Mu enjoyed eating them, she told everyone to let Qin Mu eat first.

An irritated Mu Qingxin muttered, "Stepmother!"

Feng Fanghua paid little attention, only saying, "When it’s your turn to be pregnant again, we’ll let you eat as much as you want too."

Qin Mu loved dumplings, so naturally she didn’t hold back and ate quite a few whenever the family made them.

Only later did she realize that Feng Fanghua, having noticed her fondness for dumplings, would have the kitchen make them every now and then and even have them delivered to her studio at noon.

At that time, Qin Mu felt she was so blissful it was almost unbearable.

——

Summer crept in quietly, and it really began to heat up.

The air conditioning in the studio was also turned on, and several colleagues had already caught colds due to the difference between the indoor and outdoor temperatures. Unsurprisingly, Qin Mu joined them.

Feng Fanghua directly kept her at the old house instead of letting her go back to the studio, telling her to have someone run errands for her if needed. Qin Mu thus spent most of the time lying in bed or on the couch.

Fortunately, she had taken fewer orders this year, so she was able to relax for a few days.

Mu Qingxin and her beloved son were picked up by Jiang Yan, leaving her and the old master alone at home during the day. Fearing she’d be bored, he had someone call her downstairs to play chess with him.
