CHAPTER 85: CHAPTER 85 MAKING A CALL

Back home, sure enough, Little Reunion was crying.

Jiang Xue put her things in the living room and hurried into the bedroom.

"Dad, Mom, I’m back." Jiang Xue greeted her in-laws as she entered and then walked toward the still-crying Little Reunion.

"Xue’er, you’re finally back. The baby’s been crying for a long time and wouldn’t drink his milk. Quickly, come and take a look." Bai Yuhua breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing Jiang Xue return.

"Let me see!" Jiang Xue took the baby into her arms, intending to soothe him. But before she could speak, the baby stopped crying and started searching for milk on her.

Bai Yuhua was momentarily stunned, then she laughed and said, "This little guy, he’s been crying all this time because he doesn’t want formula."

"Xue’er, you go ahead and feed him properly, and your dad and I will step out for a bit."

Having said that, Bai Yuhua took Mu Siwu and left.

Once the two had left, Jiang Xue quickly lifted her clothing and used a towel to clean herself before nursing the baby.

Little Reunion seemed extremely hungry, eating fast and furiously. Jiang Xue was afraid he might choke, repeatedly saying, "Take it easy, take it easy."

After feeding, Jiang Xue held the baby for a while longer until he fell asleep, and then she left the room.

"Dad, Mom, I went to the market and bought some groceries, let’s cook them for lunch." Jiang Xue said as she took out the vegetables she had purchased from the bag.

She had bought some ribs and also two pounds of meat.

Seeing the amount she bought, Bai Yuhua said, "Xue’er, why did you buy so much? There are still plenty of leftovers from yesterday?"

"Mom, it’s okay. The weather is cool now, and if we can’t finish it, we can save it for later."

"Alright then, we’ll stir-fry the meat for lunch, and save the ribs for stew tonight." Bai Yuhua didn’t say much more, as the leftover banquet dishes really didn’t even contain any meat bits.

"Sure, Mom, you do what you think is best." Jiang Xue smiled, handing the whole bag to Bai Yuhua.

Bai Yuhua cooked a potato and meat slices dish and stir-fried some greens, and then they had their meal. During the meal, Jiang Xue thought that Mu Qiancheng had been away for a month now without even a letter, and she asked Mu Siwu, "Dad, have you received any letters from Qiancheng recently?"

Mu Siwu shook his head and said, "Qiancheng rarely writes back. Why, do you miss him? You can call him or write a letter. I have his phone number and address here, I will give them to you later."

"Okay!" Jiang Xue nodded. Since she decided to live well with Mu Qiancheng, she naturally wanted to know everything about him.

Having the address and phone number was just the basics.

After eating, Mu Siwu, not waiting for Jiang Xue to speak, went to the room and brought out their son’s phone number and address for Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue hadn’t cared about it before, so they hadn’t thought to give it to her. Now that she mentioned it on her own, Mu Siwu was naturally pleased.

"Thank you, Dad!" Jiang Xue thanked Mu Siwu and then went back to her room. She copied down the phone number and address and then returned the note to Mu Siwu.

"Keep it with you!"

"Dad, I’ve already written it down."

With Mu Qiancheng’s phone number now in hand, Jiang Xue considered calling him, also to ask if he was so busy that he hadn’t written back.

With that thought, Jiang Xue told her in-laws and then headed to Uncle Wang’s convenience store.

It was her first time dialing Mu Qiancheng’s office number, and Jiang Xue was a bit nervous, making several mistakes entering the number.
