Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2202: Chapter 2196: What Does That Mean

"Mom, you’re back! The little sister was crying from hunger, so we gave her some cake." Yu Chen and the others were playing in the backyard. As soon as he saw his mother getting out of the car, he threw away his toys and ran over.

He didn’t forget to tell his mother what had happened after they left.

"Really? Our Yu Chen is so great, what a good boy." Qin Xue reached out to embrace her youngest son and praised him after hearing his words.

"Xue Ling said the little sister was hungry, so we fed her." Yu Chen didn’t forget about Xue Ling.

"Mm-hmm, my son is awesome." Qin Xue picked him up with one arm and patted his head with the other, complimenting him.

"Hehe, Mom is great too." Yu Chen felt a little shy from the praise, but he was genuinely happy inside.

"Our Yu Chen has learned to compliment people, that’s great. It seems like Xue Ling is a good teacher. How about we have fried chicken tonight?" Qin Xue wanted to reward him for his good behavior.

"Yay! Mom, put me down. I want to tell my brother we’re having something delicious tonight." Once Yu Chen heard that, he didn’t want to be held by his mother anymore; he wanted to show off.

"This kid, isn’t it the same if I carry you in?" Qin Xue looked at her son, who was eager to get down, and agreed to his request, releasing him to the ground, lest he struggle and fall.

"I run faster than you." Yu Chen dismissed his mother, thinking she was too slow. Besides, it was more impressive for him to be the one to tell his brother, wasn’t it?

"Alright then, run slowly. Don’t fall and hurt yourself, okay?" Qin Xue didn’t argue about who was faster. With a child, it wouldn’t be sensible to be so serious.

"Got it." Yu Chen left that sentence behind and dashed away.

"Your son is so sharp, like a little grown-up." The last time Ouyang Ziyu saw the brothers, they couldn’t even walk. Now seeing them again, Yu Chen was running speedily.

"He is pretty sharp." Qing Zhu also heard Yu Chen mention the little sister crying, but she wasn’t in a rush to go inside.

Yu Chen had just said they fed the baby, so why hurry when everything inside was fine?

Qing Zhu didn’t want her daughter to be overly clingy to her or anyone else, so she wanted to cultivate her independence from an early age.

To others, a mother like Qing Zhu might seem inadequate, but does Qing Zhu care about others’ opinions? Of course not. Her life doesn’t need anyone else’s commentary.

"Kids nowadays are so smart, unlike when we were young, so dumb and clueless." When Qin Xue talked about her childhood, it wasn’t like this. Because the children they had were born to them, they knew there were differences compared to today’s kids. The differences in upbringing were also noticeably distinct.

So Qin Xue often thought that a child’s growth was tied to the family environment. The family that influences the child the most. Seeing her children gradually showing their smart side made her feel comforted.

"That’s true."

"What do you mean?"

Qing Zhu instantly understood Qin Xue’s point, but Ouyang Ziyu didn’t get it. She clearly felt she was cute as a child and didn’t think she was any worse than others.

So what did Qin Xue mean exactly? Why couldn’t she understand it? Looking at Qing Zhu, Ouyang Ziyu wanted to ask them both a question: are we living on the same planet? Why is it that while living in the same place, I can hear what you’re saying, but I can’t grasp the meaning? I understand the words, but I can’t comprehend the meaning at all.
