CHAPTER 276: CHAPTER 276: LITTLE THIRD WHEEL

"Second brother, don’t worry, Jiajia will be there too. How about this, I’ll pick a weekend and take Xiao Jun along, and let Little Jun watch over Xiao Yue, nothing should go wrong, right?" Tang Mingli said innocently: "Second brother, both Xiao Yue and Si Yu are well-educated, they know the importance of things."

"Young people getting engaged, romancing beneath the moonlight..." Tang Zhengde grew more worried as he thought about it.

Zhang Hualian glared at him and said, "After the engagement, Si Yu has to go back to the motor pool, he won’t have much time in Jing City then, let them spend some time together to foster their relationship."

Zhang Hualian was extremely pleased with Mo Siyu, his vacation was only that long, and after the engagement, he would return to the motor pool, reducing the time they could spend together.

"Exactly." Tang Mingli said: "Second brother, you’re really old-fashioned."

Tang Zhengde: "..."

*

Xiushui Town.

It’s only an hour’s drive from Wangjiang County.

Tang Mingli took Wei Jiajia and Tang You’an, the whole family went out together for the first time, except for trips to Jiang City.

Tang Yue and Mo Siyu were in the peak of their romance, wishing they could be together every moment.

Tang Jun and Zhang Qiang were like light bulbs, shining brightly.

Fortunately, the scenery in Xiushui Town was indeed as beautiful as Tang Mingli had described.

The pond was full of incredibly beautiful lotuses, with blossoms opened wide, and a gentle breeze brought a faint fragrance.

"How about it, told you it’s beautiful, right?" Tang Mingli said happily, looking at his wife and son, he felt extremely satisfied.

"Beautiful, I want to pick some lotus pods." Wei Jiajia, elated like a girl, ran along the pond side watched by Tang Jun, looked at the numerous lotus pods with excitement, not at all like someone who is already a mother.

"Let’s go." Tang Mingli immediately borrowed a boat and took Wei Jiajia to pick lotus pods.

Tang Jun holding Tang You’an, and Zhang Qiang standing by, watched as Tang Mingli boarded the boat and couldn’t help saying: "Uncle, what about An’an when you leave?"

"You take him." Tang Mingli naturally said: "Xiao Jun, take good care of your little brother, we’ll pick some lotus seeds for you."

Tang Jun: "..."

He himself could pick lotus seeds, he didn’t need Tang Mingli to do it.

Tang You’an, not shy with strangers, in a new place was happily pointing ahead, wanting Tang Jun to take him there.

"Xiao Jun, let me hold him." Tang Yue couldn’t stand by anymore, she reached out to hold Tang You’an.

Mo Siyu moved even faster and took Tang You’an from her.

Tang You’an seemingly felt it wasn’t Tang Yue holding him, pouted his little lips and stretched out his little hands wanting Tang Yue to hold him.

"Hold." Tang You’an reached out his arms, his whole body leaning towards Tang Yue.

"Sister hold." Tang Yue quickly caught Tang You’an, now that living conditions are better and food is abundant, Tang You’an has grown plump and extremely adorable.

"Zhang Qiang, let’s go pick lotus pods." Tang Jun said excitedly.

"You go, I’ll keep your sister company," Mo Siyu said.

He couldn’t bear to let Tang Yue sit alone on the shore with Tang You’an.

"Alright." Tang Jun thought for a moment, before leaving home, his parents had repeatedly instructed him to always stay by his sister’s side, now, he would go pick lotus pods, letting An’an stay with his sister should be fine, right?

So Tang Jun and Zhang Qiang, the two of them, took a small boat to pick lotus pods.

"Xiao Yue, let me hold him." Mo Siyu looked at Tang You’an’s chubby body hugging Tang Yue and felt quite disturbed.

Mo Siyu forcibly took Tang You’an into his arms, Tang You’an pursed his lips wanting to cry, then suddenly, Mo Siyu started running while holding him.

’Giggle’

Tang You’an laughed happily again.

Tang Yue walked beside Mo Siyu, playing with Tang You’an with a lotus flower in her hand, and Tang You’an was incredibly delighted.

Tang Mingli and Wei Jiajia rarely had a world of their own, so they were reluctant to come back.

Tang Jun was so engrossed in playing with water that he lost track of time.

By the shore, Tang You’an became hungry, Tang Yue went to an inn, asked the owner for some hot water, and made powdered milk for Tang You’an, who fell asleep after finishing it.

"Finally, some peace." Mo Siyu gently held Tang You’an, daring not to move; Tang You’an, not yet a year old, wanted to learn to walk, wanted to look at everything, after bustling about for most of the day, he wanted to sleep.

Outside the inn, there was a large courtyard, Mo Siyu and Tang Yue sat side by side on a bench, in front of them was a large expanse of lotus flowers, a very pleasing sight.

Indeed, it very much resembled those eco-farms of the future.

Tang Yue took a deep breath and felt even the air was sweet.

"Xiao Yue, aren’t your exam scores coming out the day after tomorrow?" Mo Siyu gazed at her.

"Yes." Tang Yue leaned against the bench, feeling quite relaxed as well, she said, "What if I did terribly?"

"I believe in you, you definitely won’t." Mo Siyu’s gaze fixed intensely on Tang Yue, if it weren’t for holding Tang You’an in his arms, he would likely have embraced Tang Yue.

Tang Yue felt embarrassed under his gaze, she said, "What if?"

"There won’t be any what if." Mo Siyu confidently asserted.

Tang Yue pursed her lips, eyes rolling briefly, then asked, "Could you tell me Aunt Mo’s measurements and also your two aunts’ sizes?"

"You haven’t made many clothes for me." Mo Siyu immediately guessed her intentions.

"Uh... you wear white shirts every day." The moment Tang Yue finished speaking, she looked at the white shirt on Mo Siyu, adding, "The clothes you’re wearing are made by me."

"I’ll give you my mom’s measurements in a few days, my aunts’ after the wedding," Mo Siyu shifted closer to her, "Xiao Yue, I like wearing the clothes you make. That sweater you knitted for me last time looked especially nice and was particularly warm."

"I’ll knit one for you next time." Tang Yue looked up, replying, "Seeing you in white shirts every day, I didn’t think about making more, but next time I’ll make a few. What do you prefer? Something comfortable or something that looks good? Different white shirts or T-shirts?"

Tang Yue inquired.

"I like whatever you make." Mo Siyu answered with a smile.

Tang Yue: "..."

The two chatted, enjoying the beautiful scene in front, the atmosphere warm and comfortable, feeling very cozy.

When Tang Mingli and Wei Jiajia came back, what they saw was this scene, the two not sitting too close, Mo Siyu holding little An’an in his arms, under the big pagoda tree, just like a family of three.

Plus, both Tang Yue and Mo Siyu were extremely attractive, making the scene look even more beautiful.

"Jiajia, why do I feel like they’re the ones who look like a family of three?" Tang Mingli, holding a bunch of lotus pods, turned to Wei Jiajia and remarked.

Peeling a lotus pod, Wei Jiajia cleared her throat, saying, "Our An’an is good-looking."
