"Guiying, how long will it take for your ankle to heal?"
In the afternoon, Xian Guiying was assisted by Darna to the front yard of the villa to bask in the sun. She was nearly there when she heard Mrs. Qin's question.
Qin Xiaowen had gone to the company by riding in Qin Gengxin's car in the morning. Even though he was the chief in name, he was, after all, still the owner of the company, so he should check it out carefully.
The Old Woman and Mrs. Qin were sitting across the chair, holding grass that appeared out of nowhere.
"Actually, it's not as painful as it was a few days ago. It's just that the doctor says it's best not to move around and put too much weight on my feet. That's why I use a crutch. Mom, don't worry, I just sprained." Xian Guiying signaled to Darna to return to her job.
"Mommy, great-grandmother said she knew how to make a ring!" Pointing to the grass in the Old Woman's hand, Qin Wenqian turned happily to look at Xian Guiying.
Xian Guiying slowly put down her crutch. Mrs. Qin signaled for her to sit down with her eyes, so she sat down. She reached out to pick up a slice of apricot fruit from the small plate and put it into Qin Wenqian's mouth.
Qin Wenqian giggled as she looked at Mrs. Qin."Grandmother will tell Qianqian about the story of Snow White. Grandpa will carry Qianqian on the plane, and great-grandmother knew how to make a ring for Qianqian. Hehehe ~"
"Plane?" Xian Guiying glanced at Mrs. Qin doubtfully.
Mrs. Qin looked up at Xian Guiying and said, "It was your father who lifted her up in the air when she went to sleep last night. He said that he was piloting the plane at that time, so this child mysteriously fell in love with it. This morning when she woke up, she even yelled at your father to take her on a plane ~"
Xian Guiying smiled understandingly. At first, she was worried Qin Wenqian would not be able to accept so many strangers by her side, but apparently, the blood was thicker than water. Within two days, she had become very close with her grandmother and grandfather.
This made Xian Guiying sigh with relief. At least Qin Wenqian was able to cooperate a little. Mrs. Qin was in a much better mood and would not be too rude to her because of what the Old Woman had said.
Mrs. Qin lowered her head and smiled as she looked at Qin Wenqian. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and turned to look at Xian Guiying."Guiying, mom wants to ask you. Can you ask someone's help to manage the company? Your brother Zihao can also find other suitable people to manage the company, so you might as well quit your job at Xian Enterprise and stay at home."
The smile in Xian Guiying's eyes did not change."What do you mean?"
Mrs. Qin smiled and turned to look at the Old Woman. The Old Woman only focused on knitting the grass in her hands, treating Xian Guiying as air, but her eyelids were slightly raised at this time.
She glanced at Xian Guiying in disapproval and said, "A woman should be at home, treating her husband. ? Why do you have to run everywhere every day? If the husband and wife are so busy, it will definitely affect their relationship."
Xian Guiying was about to say something when Mrs. Qin cut her, "Right, Guiying. Seeing how busy you and Gengxin are, even though you have free time now and then but when you have free time, he is busy, and vice versa. If these keep happening, there will be no way for both of you to spend time together and take the time to go back to the country later. Your grandmother's health is not good these last few years and it's rare for your father and me to come here. After two years, we finally can see our granddaughter. How can you say makes us, senior, waiting for you every day with bitterness?"
"Mom, I understand what you mean. I understand." Xian Guiying smiled and said indifferently, "But women can't stay home and accompany their children and husband forever. Women also need to have their own careers and have the capital to stand strong in this society. In this day and age, if a woman lives in a house like this without having a career and doing nothing, she will soon be eliminated."
"What the heck are you talking about? I've lived for so long and I've never gone out to work before, and I've also lived a good life." The Old Woman had a serious expression on her face.
Xian Guiying did not want to argue; arguing with this Old Woman merely asked for trouble. She just smiled and said, "I will try my best to find time to go back with Gengxin to accompany you."
Hearing her words, Mrs. Qin knew that Xian Guiying had no intention of quitting her job, so she didn't say anything else. When the Old Woman was not satisfied and wanted to argue, Mrs. Qin immediately said, "Mom, the lotus porridge you asked Dalisay to make now should be ready now. Let's come inside and eat it."
"It should be hot by now. I'll eat it later." The Old Woman passed the finished ring to Qin Wenqian, who accepted it happily and played with it in her hands. She was looking at it curiously.
Seeing that the Old Woman's eyes were finally filled with kindness as she looked at Qin Wenqian, Xian Guiying hesitated for a moment before asking, "Grandmother, do you know my grandfather?"
The Old Woman's slightly amiable smile turned stiff for a split-second. Mrs. Qin also looked at Xian Guiying in shock before turning back to look at the unhappy Old Woman.
"I'm going to eat lotus seed porridge." The Old Woman suddenly stood up. She didn't even look at Xian Guiying as she walked back into the villa.
As the Old Woman entered the villa, Qin Wenqian picked up the small ring and grabbed Xian Guiying's hand."Mommy, mommy. Qianqian will put a ring on you."
As she spoke, Qin Wenqian fiddled with Xian Guiying's fingers and she slipped the ring on her finger.
Mrs. Qin smiled and looked down at Xian Guiying's hand, which was being held by the child. She then looking at the grass ring on her finger and asked, "Guiying, why didn't you wear the wedding ring?"
Xian Guiying was taken aback. She clenched her hand into a fist and pulled them back.
Seeing her action, Mrs. Qin looked at her hesitantly, "I remember that when you and Gengxin got married, I was the one who helped you choose the wedding ring. What, don't tell me you didn't like that ring? I didn't notice it until now that you're not wearing that ring!"
Without waiting for Xian Guiying to speak, Mrs. Qin continued, "Gengxin also doesn't seem to be wearing a ring either. You guys don't like it?"
