Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 427 - 379: 326 Second Birthday (Makeup for Yesterday) (Part 3)
Su Xiaomeng came over, blocking her way,
"What are you doing?"
Shuangshuang looked up, her mouth full of purple sweet potato...
"Alright, alright, finish eating first, take it slow, don’t choke."
Su Xiaomeng really felt tired, and asked the servant to get some water, fearing Shuangshuang would choke from eating too quickly.
As expected, the little girl suddenly stopped, her eyes widened as she stared at Su Xiaomeng, her eyebrows furrowed with discomfort.
Su Xiaomeng hurriedly rubbed her chest,
"Nobody’s fighting with you for it, why are you eating so fast?"
After several sips of water, Shuangshuang finally recovered, and immediately pointed to Prince Huang,
"Brother fought."
"..."
Prince Huang ignored Shuangshuang and silently gnawed on a purple sweet potato by himself.
Yin Shixiu had just been chatting with Bai Sixian about the issue of Xiaomeng being sharp-tongued lately.
Bai Sixian gave him some advice,
"The due date is September 1st, right? Before delivery, few women can stay calm."
Yin Shixiu suddenly realized.
Thinking back to the month before giving birth to Shuangshuang and Huanghuang, Su Xiaomeng was also filled with unease and insomnia.
And now, she had shown almost no signs of fear or anxiety about the delivery, at least not on the surface, not in front of him...
"Xiaomeng is even less likely to stay calm... Last time she suffered a lot giving birth to Shuangshuang and Huanghuang, natural birth didn’t work out, and she had to switch to a C-section."
Mentioning this, Yin Shixiu again felt a pang of heartache.
"Shuang’er, you’ve eaten enough now, there are still a lot of delicious things later, are you not going to eat them?"
Shuangshuang thought for a moment, nodded, and realized Dad made sense.
Then straightened her back and stood in front of Prince Huang,
"Brother, why are you still eating..."
"..."
Yin Shixiu held his forehead, wondering what was going through these kids’ minds...
"Brother isn’t allowed to eat either, Dad will take away the purple sweet potatoes."
Prince Huang didn’t mind, knowing there would be many more delicious things later.
"When are the elders arriving? Son-in-law, give them a call."
Su Chengji said.
"They’ve reached the foot of the mountain, they’ll be here soon."
Bai Fengmao asked the servants to serve the dishes.
It was already the hottest time in Beijing, it wasn’t even cool on the mountains, but with the air conditioning on, it was somewhat bearable.
As soon as the doorbell rang, Xiaomeng said to Shuangshuang and Huanghuang,
"Grandpa and Grandma are here!"
Shuangshuang and Huanghuang immediately ran to the door, but unfortunately, they were too short, finding it difficult to open the door.
Yin Shixiu went over to help open the door.
"Dad, Mom."
The Yin Family elders were dressed in cloth shirts, looking comfortable and simple.
Driver Huang followed behind, carrying several gift boxes.
"This weather is really deadly hot."
Yin Shaohui said as he entered the house.
The servant took the gift boxes from Driver Huang.
"So in this heat, why did you come over?"
Bai Fengmao said.
Yin Shaohui quickly laughed and said,
"How could we miss the grandkids’ first birthday?"
"What? Sharing it with me makes you uncomfortable?"
"Brother Bai, why do you say such things! It’s lively gathering everyone together!"
Yin Shaohui quickly went over to lighten the mood with Bai Fengmao!
Su Xiaomeng handed a glass of cold water to Zhou Mengqin,
"Mom, have a sip."
Zhou Mengqin quietly said to Su Xiaomeng,
"The old man was just afraid if he didn’t come for Shuangshuang’s and Huanghuang’s birthday, the grandkids wouldn’t be close to him anymore."
"How could that be?"
Zhou Mengqin laughed,
"Of course, the old guy’s temper is getting more stubborn, insisting on making a fuss."
Although Su Xiaomeng also thought her father-in-law was fussing unnecessarily, she felt happy in her heart. It only showed how much he cared about Shuangshuang and Huanghuang.
But soon, Su Xiaomeng realized that her father-in-law’s concern wasn’t limited to just Shuangshuang and Huanghuang.
He seemed to have a bit of a rivalry with the grandfather.
At the dining table, even before the birthday gifts for the two little ones were brought out, the comparison had already begun.
"Brother Bai, I’m not bragging, but the gifts I prepared for Shuangshuang and Huanghuang, you would never guess!"
"Oh wow, you’re making it sound like I could guess the gifts I prepared for them."
The grandfather wasn’t someone who would easily be outdone either.
Once prominent figures in politics, now both with white hair, sitting and discussing family matters at a dinner table fragrant with food.
Having shed their military uniforms, they’re just ordinary old men.
As people age, they become more childlike, but there was someone else at the table, Su Chengji.
"Dad, the gift I prepared for Shuangshuang and Huanghuang, you wouldn’t guess either!"
Bai Sixian’s hand shook, and he glared at him,
"Can’t even keep your mouth shut while eating, can you?"
Su Chengji had no idea what he had said wrong...
While lowering his head to eat, Yin Shaohui said,
"In-law, what gift did you prepare? Let me see."
"Hold on a moment!"
Bai Sixian felt helpless, like it was unstoppable.
Su Chengji took out the gift he had prepared,
"This chess set was originally a meeting gift from Xiao Yin, the quality is superb. Little Huanghuang is talented in everything, so I’m giving this chess set to Huanghuang, hoping he’ll become a chess master in the future!"
Yin Shixiu’s chopsticks trembled...
He thought: Could it really be that jade chess set?
Su Chengji regifting the chess set he received from his son-in-law to Huanghuang, didn’t matter much among family.
But the issue was...
When Su Chengji opened the chess box, Yin Shaohui’s sharp eyes recognized it instantly!
"Si Xian and I couldn’t think of anything good to give the little ones, but we thought this chess set looked pleasing. Though it was the first gift from my son-in-law, what’s important is the inheritance, right?"
Yin Shaohui turned slightly and looked at Yin Shixiu...
Yin Shixiu, noticing his father’s gaze, deliberately avoided it, feeding Huanghuang.
"Wow, Dad, you’re really willing. Didn’t you love the chess set Shixiu gave you?"
"There’s no one at home to play with him."
Bai Sixian said.
"How could that be? Dad has many chess friends, doesn’t he?"
"Who knows, later, they just stopped coming to play with your dad, maybe his chess skills were too poor."
Su Chengji had grievances but couldn’t voice them.
He wanted to take the chess set out to find someone to play with, but his wife absolutely forbade him to take it outside.
Even when chess friends came over, he wasn’t allowed to bring it out.
Of course, he loved the chess set dearly, but not being able to use it, it was like it was just a decoration.
Seeing it every day made him crave it, but he couldn’t actually use it. As Shuangshuang’s and Huanghuang’s birthday approached, he worried about what to give.
His wife just took out the chess set and said, "Just give them this."
Su Chengji couldn’t understand, but his wife’s words had to be followed.
Bai Sixian had no ulterior motive; Su Chengji didn’t appreciate the value of the chess set. Such a fine chess set was more suited for collection, yet he insisted on using it.
Were he to tell the truth, by the next day, the entire neighborhood might know his son-in-law had gifted him a chess set worth millions.
Zhou Mengqin stared at the chess set for a long while...
Looking at her husband’s expression, she suddenly found it funny and quickly said,
"Ahem, this is a good thing, Mr. Su put it well, it’s about the inheritance, the inheritance..."
An inheritance of nonsense!
Yin Shaohui was turning green with anger!
