Chapter 339 Beautiful Fairy
Even while eating at the table, Manqi couldn't shut up and whispered to Song Tingnan, "Little sister, what's your name? You're so pretty."
"Sister, my name is Peng Dan. You are the one who is truly beautiful!"
"Can I call you Dandan? Can you guess what my name means?"
"Yes, that's fine. Does it mean a beautiful and kind fairy? That's a lovely name, it suits you perfectly!" Song Tingnan was very sweet-talking and knew how to coax people.
Qiman said with a smile, "Hehe, right? Qiman is the flower of our tribe. You are welcome to come and visit us sometime. It's very beautiful, there are many fun things to do, and you can even ride horses on the grassland."
"Really? I've never been out and about before." Song Tingnan sounded somewhat dejected.
"Oh, you're so big now? Don't your parents take you out to play?"
Song Tingnan 'leaked' some information: "Yeah, they're very busy. I grew up in a lab. From a young age, all sorts of instruments, glass funnels, flasks, test tubes and the like were my toys."
"Really? Then you must be really amazing!"
"Am I amazing? What makes me amazing? Like Grandpa and Grandma? But all I want is for Mom and Dad to spend time with me and take me out to play. They're always busy." After showing her pitiful side, which was being ignored by her parents, Song Tingnan lowered her head. She was a little hungry and didn't want to ramble on anymore.
Qiman continued, "No matter how busy parents are, they can't neglect their children. What do your parents do? Why are you living at my sister-in-law's house?"
"Can't I? Sister Wen said Uncle agreed." Song Tingnan pretended to be naive, turning back to blink at Du Hexiang, hoping to give him a hint each time.
Du Hexiang glanced coldly at Qiman, then said softly to Tingnan, "Don't listen to her nonsense. Uncle agrees, she can stay as long as she wants." He then used serving chopsticks to put a piece of braised pork rib on her plate, and finally, she could eat in peace.
Du Hexiang also speculated about Peng Dan's identity. Her parents must be of high status. With her eldest daughter-in-law taking care of her, they must at least be members of the research institute. He couldn't let this Qi Man scare her away.
If she were a few years older, she would be a much better match for my younger son than this foreign-looking Qiman. But Hongzhi prefers this 'exotic charm'.
In addition, since the policy states that ethnic minorities should not be discriminated against, he turned a blind eye and decided to do it to show his superiors first. Anyway, he hadn't even entered the door yet, and everything was still subject to change.
I stayed at the Du family's house for three days, and Du Hongze didn't go home. His work wasn't that confidential. Yu Kewen was in the inner courtyard, while he was in the outer courtyard of the research institute, but he was also quite busy. The couple's relationship was stable.
Du Hongze was raised by his grandparents, who were quite strict with him and he wasn't spoiled by Wu Jinfeng. Du Hongzhi, five years younger than him, was somewhat irresponsible. Du Hexiang found him several jobs, but he couldn't hold down any of them for long. He was always late or left early, and liked to skip work. He frequented nightclubs more often than he went home; it was there that he met Qiman.
After Qi Man left, Song Tingnan and Yu Kewen discussed it and felt that staying at home for too long would arouse the suspicion of enemy agents, so they decided to rest for three to five days as usual and then return to the research institute.
After discussing it, they told Du Hexiang and Wu Jinfeng, who naturally had no objections. Their daughter-in-law was a government employee, and her job was special.
Wu Jinfeng hesitated, and everyone looked at her. She said with dissatisfaction, "You missed Hongze again this time. The couple is like the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, unable to meet. When will you be able to have another child?"
Du Hexiang immediately scolded her: "What do you know? Kewen's work is arranged by her superiors, what can she do? You just need to take good care of Binbin. Can you handle another one? Don't nag and act like a mother hen."
Yu Kewen wasn't angry. Deep down, she didn't want to have another child. Giving birth and postpartum care take too much time. Besides, she wouldn't be able to raise the child herself, and she was actually quite worried that her son would be as unreliable as his uncle.
Her job is unusual, and she feels guilty towards her son, so whenever she's home, she dedicates herself to playing with Binbin and tutoring him.
Yu Kewen also requires her husband to take time off and spend time with their son. To prevent their son from becoming estranged from them, the couple's holidays are mostly staggered. Fortunately, their son is very well-behaved and close to them.
