Sweet Beauty

Chapter 1204: Aren't You Two Already Divorced?

Qin Yu did not feel embarrassed in the least. With a smile, she walked over and took Han Yingzhe from Qiao Hongya's arms. "Didn't you hear big sister calling you? Why didn't you come to the door to greet me?"         

    

Old Madam Han could not help but laugh. "Qin Yu, you're causing trouble for your little brother! How old is he now? He can't walk fast enough, yet you want him to greet you at the door? Aren't you afraid he'll fall?"     

"Of course not." Qin Yu hugged Han Yingzhe joyfully, "This is my little brother. When other children are just learning to walk, he can already run. When other children are just learning to speak, he's already reciting Tang Shi's poems. He's an absolute prodigy, one step faster!"     

"You're not talking about a child prodigy, you're talking about science fiction!" Old Madam Han rolled her eyes speechlessly.     

Liang Zixuan smiled and patted Qin Yu on the shoulder. "That's enough. Put him down. If you always carry him, he'll be spoiled later. What if he gets lazy when he grows up?"     

"Hehe... Alright!" Qin Yu carefully put Han Yingzhe down. The little man stood in the crowd and looked left and right. Finally, he saw Liang Zixuan and stumbled towards her.     

"Mo...Momma!"     

Everyone was overjoyed. "Yingzhe really knows how to call his mother 'mom'!"     

Liang Zixuan's heart melted when she heard that. She walked up a few steps and carried him. "Yingzhe, be good!"     

"Momma! Momma!" Han Yingzhe shouted twice and kissed Liang Zixuan's cheek.     

When Luo Yanyun saw this, her eyes gradually turned red. She took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her eyes.     

Qiao Hongya pulled her into his arms. "Today is a happy day, don't be sad. It wouldn't be good if everyone became sad like you later."     

"No." Luo Yanyun choked with sobs. "When Zixuan grew up, Lihua was already... Lihua couldn't hear Zixuan calling her 'mom', not even at the moment of her death. Now seeing Yingzhe calling Zixuan 'mom', I feel happy. If Lihua could see this, she would be as happy as I am."     

"That's all in the past." Qiao Hongya comforted her in a low voice, "If you miss Lihua too much, wait until Qingming Day¹. We'll bring Yingzhe to see her."     

"Alright!" Luo Yanyun wiped the tears from her face and smiled. "Lihua will definitely be happy!"     

Everyone had a bit of lunch and after lunch, the servants in the kitchen began to prepare the food for the feast.     

Tian Qihua would come into the kitchen and take a look every hour to make sure everything was going smoothly.     

At two in the afternoon, Zhang Xiuying arrived with Han Xiwang. Seeing the two of them come together, everyone's eyes revealed a strange light.     

Old Man Han did not care in the least about the occasion when he spoke. Besides, they were all family here, so of course he would not give Han Xiwang a face.     

When he saw Han Xiwang, he snorted disdainfully. "Aren't you two already divorced? Aren't you no longer part of the Han Family? Then what are you doing here?"     

Han Xiwang coughed softly to hide his embarrassment and he shamelessly pulled Zhang Xiuying's hand.     

Zhang Xiuying brushed his hand away in disgust and quickly walked over to Jia Qiulian's side and sat down.     

Han Xiwang stood there alone. Seeing the looks of the others, he said sheepishly, "How old am I? Why do I have to get a divorce? Also... when did I say that I am not from the Han Family? My family name is Han and I have been a member of the Han Family all my life!"     

Old Man Han was too lazy to answer. He turned his head to the side and did not give Han Xiwang a proper look.     

Han Xiwang knew that Old Madam Han's heart was the most tender. He quickly took an apple from the coffee table and peeled it. Then he handed the apple to her. "Mom, have an apple."     

Old Madam Han looked at him indifferently and snorted in disdain. "I can't afford to eat your apple!"         

    

Han Xiwang immediately felt embarrassed and handed the apple in his hand to Zhang Xiuying.     

Zhang Xiuying rolled her eyes. Her contempt towards Han Xiwang cannot be described in words. "If mom can't afford to eat it, I can't afford it either!"     

Han Xiwang: "..."     

Although he knew in advance that he would be despised by the crowd when he came to such an occasion, his heart was still not happy to be rejected like this.     

After all, no one wanted to be a public enemy and be everyone's target.     

Jia Qiulian's heart ached when she saw Han Xiwang standing there with the apple in his hand, looking lost. She took the apple from him. Then she took a fruit knife and cut the apple into several pieces.     

"Grandmother, grandfather, mom, this apple is very big, I can't eat it alone, let's eat it together."     

Old Madam Han and Zhang Xiuying looked at Jia Qiulian at the same time. Her smiling expression and words pleased them both very much. Her eyes curved upwards like the crescent moon, and her mouth formed a sweet smile.     

Old Madam Han and Zhang Xiuying's hearts soon softened. Old Madam Han was the first to take the apple. "Eating apples is also good for health."     

Zhang Xiuying also took the apple, followed by Old Man Han, Luo Yanyun, and Qiao Hongya.     

Finally, Jia Qiulian fed the last one to Han Yingzhe. "Yingzhe, this is an apple from the third grandfather. It's really delicious, why don't you try it yourself?"     

Han Yingzhe had already grown quite a few teeth, so he could already eat fruits like apples. Jia Qiulian fed the apple in his mouth, and he took a bite and began to eat it obediently.     

Han Xiwang looked at everyone and laughed. His heart was immediately moved. Then he looked at Jia Qiulian with burning eyes. It was as if he wanted to kneel down in front of her.     

Jia Qiulian smiled and stood up. "Dad, sit down here. I'm going for a walk with Qin Yu and sister-in-law. We ate too much for lunch, so our stomachs are a little bloated."     

"Hahaha, okay, okay." Han Xiwang laughed happily.     

Jia Qiulian's seat was next to Zhang Xiuying. This was the position Han Xiwang had dreamed of in his dream.     

Although he and Zhang Xiuying still lived in the same house, she did not like to talk to him.     

Han Xiwang knew that he had hurt Zhang Xiuying so badly that it would take more than a year or two for them to get back together. Therefore, he could only try his best to keep living with her.     

Now, in front of many people, Jia Qiulian took the initiative to give up her seat. How could he not be excited?     

As soon as Jia Qiulian stood up, Han Xiwang impatiently sat down and turned to face Zhang Xiuying with a silly smile. "It was my daughter-in-law who asked me to sit here."
