ile his voice was serious and a little frightening.An Xiaotu lowered her head sheepishly, touching her slightly bulging abdomen. She nodded and said in a low voice, "I was so angry and worried when I...An Xiaotu returned to her parents' home and only then learned that Yi Sheng had been "sold" by her mother.

Suddenly, I couldn't help but think to myself: her mother's actions were a bit too hasty. It was clear how much she desperately wanted a daughter-in-law.

Although things were going smoothly, based on Yisheng's past experience of being single despite her capabilities, she felt that even though Yisheng and Wen Pingsheng were living together, they hadn't actually taken the first step.

At noon, after lunch.

An Xiaotu was sitting in the living room, chatting with Yixing on WeChat, and asked about his current situation.

Yisheng has always been particularly patient with her, and when they chat, he talks more. He told her in detail about his visit to Wen Pingsheng's house.

An Xiaotu was about to laugh until she cried, looking at the chat log of what he had told her.

"What are you talking about with Yisheng You seem so happy." Tang Yucheng sat beside her, asking softly.

“I think Yi Sheng is smitten,” An Xiaotu couldn’t help but smile as she relayed what Yi Sheng had said to her parents. “Yi Sheng said that Ping Sheng's assistant brought her takeout for lunch, and then Yi Sheng was too lazy to go out to eat, so he cooked a bowl of noodles at Ping Sheng's place. You know After he cooked the noodles, he just sat opposite Ping Sheng and ate.”

Although An Xiaotu didn't see the scene at the time, she knew Yi Sheng very well. So, she looked at the chat log and imitated Yi Sheng's expression and cold tone:

"Yi Sheng was eating noodles while telling Ping Sheng, 'Ms. Wen, as your nutritionist, I need to remind you: eat less takeout in the future. Firstly, there's no guarantee of cleanliness and hygiene. As far as I know, many restaurants and hotels don't wash their vegetables and meat properly. I remember once finding a worm in the greens at an upscale restaurant. Sometimes you can even see that the stir-fried greens aren't separated and washed, with dirt on the stems... ugh."

As for meat, if the restaurant owner is a black-hearted businessman, they will use inferior meat to cook. Since it's a black-hearted business, hygiene is even less guaranteed.

"Oh, Ms. Wen, this restaurant you're eating at was featured in the news before."

When An Mu heard this, she couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. "Yi Sheng, this child, is talking nonsense..."

An Xiaotu chuckled and continued, "Then I asked Yixing why that restaurant was in the news; he said it was because the restaurant was famous for its cleanliness and hygiene. The ingredients were washed thoroughly, and the monthly water bill was much higher than other restaurants."

However, many restaurants add chicken essence and MSG to their dishes without restraint in order to make the taste better. Eating too much takeout can indeed be unhealthy.

After leaving home later.

Sitting in the car, Tang Yucheng only told An Xiaotu, "I think, unless Wen Pingsheng is a masochist, the probability of her being with Yisheng is very low."

After being with her, he knew all the basic internet slang.

"Cough, do you think Ping Sheng would be tortured so badly by Yi Sheng that he couldn't take it anymore and ran away" An Xiaotu touched her nose.

"Tang Yucheng."

As expected, it came true.

Less than half a month.

An Xiaotu just heard her mother tell herself that Yi Sheng had returned from Wen Ping Sheng.

The reason is that Yisheng said that one day when he went out to his parents' house, when he came back, the house was empty (Wen Pingsheng's computer, drawing tablet and some eating utensils were gone), Wen Pingsheng left a note saying he had returned to Kyoto.

Later, Yisheng also confirmed from Grandma Wen that Wen Pingsheng had indeed returned to the Wen family in Kyoto.

An Xiaotu was dumbfounded after hearing this. She looked at Yi Sheng with admiration, almost wanting to prostrate herself before him; after all, even Grandma Wen couldn't make Wen Ping Sheng obediently return to Kyoto. Unexpectedly, Yi Sheng managed it with just one move, and soon Wen Ping Sheng fled back to the Wen family.

Seeing her mother was a little down, An Xiaotu symbolically comforted her mother for a while. He said some serious nonsense, like "Heaven bestows great responsibilities upon men first makes them lonely dogs for half their lives; when the time comes, they will naturally end their singlehood."

In the end, her mother also let go, saying that she would no longer interfere with Yisheng's search for a partner in the future and that she would leave it to Xiao Annian to take care of him in his old age.

Actually, An Xiaotu felt that Yixing was hiding something. There must be something unknown about why Wen Pingsheng ran back to the Wen family in Kyoto.

……

This day.

When An Xiaotu woke up, it was almost nine o'clock.

Seeing Tang Yucheng still lying beside her, she immediately looked at the time and date, confirming it was 8:45 am on Monday

"Yuchen, is today Monday" she wondered if the calendar was wrong.

"Well, it's Monday," he affirmed.

"You... how are you still here Didn't you go..." An Xiaotu thought he was sick, reaching out to touch his forehead. His temperature was normal, and his face looked normal as well.

Tang Yucheng lowered his head and kissed her lips, "Didn't I tell you I'm on paternity leave."

Holy crap! Maternity leave

An Xiaot Rabbit was so shocked her jaw nearly dropped.

"Hold on, you're not having a baby, why are you taking maternity leave"

Tang Yucheng gently caressed her belly and explained, “In a few days, you'll be hospitalized for childbirth. You'd definitely be bored alone in the hospital, and after the baby is born, you definitely won't be able to take care of it. I don't want to let the maid take care of the baby, so I applied for three months of leave.”

Before she returned to C city, he had been working diligently and wholeheartedly, taking little time off for holidays.

After returning to Beisi City, when planning for a second child, she had saved up vacation days that remained unused.

His performance over the years has been impeccable, so this time when he applied for a three-month maternity leave, conveniently saying he needed a break to rest and recharge, it was quickly approved.

"Who will take over your work" asked An Xiaotu.

"Deputy Commander Shen, he's been by my side for over ten years. I also intend to take this opportunity to have him take over my work. When I return, I'll help him apply for a promotion." Tang Yucheng said.

In actuality, Deputy Shen's abilities aren't bad. He had several opportunities to be promoted in the past, but he declined each promotion and chose to stay by his side.

He hoped that Deputy Shen's future would be brighter and better, rather than being confined by his side. He hoped that Deputy Shen could also accomplish great things on his own.

So this time, before his vacation, he talked with Deputy Shen for a long time, to put it bluntly, doing ideological work.

"Deputy Shen has been by your side for many years. Now that he's been promoted, he's not your left and right arm anymore. Won't you feel reluctant" An Xiaotu looked up at him and asked with a smile.

He pondered for a moment before replying, "It might take some time to get used to, but thinking about his brighter and more promising future makes it worthwhile."

"Alright, weren't you saying you wanted to go shopping After breakfast, I'll go with you."satisfied with this son-in-law, thinking that her daughter must have been blessed by the ancestors to marry a man as good as Tang Yucheng.He didn't believe Tang Yucheng's words about angering his daug...
