Chapter 374 Taotao is coming

Taotao was very interested in the rolling pins. He held the rolling pins by his side during the whole dinner. When he went to sleep at night, he still held them. It seemed that the rolling pins gave him incomparable security.

Xia Xiaoluo made Taotao sleep. She wanted to go to the garden to breathe some fresh air. It was only about nine o’clock, she didn’t want to sleep yet!

“Xiaoluo, what a coincidence! Are you going to breathe some fresh air?” Ouyang Ziqian went for a walk alone in the garden as well.

“Yes! Taotao is sleeping. So I go out for a walk!” Xia Xiaoluo said with a smile, “Does Dou Ya get home?”

“I came back after taking her home.” Ouyang Ziqian nodded. “Don’t worry. She is very safe. Although the apartment she lives in is a little far, the security facilities of her community are very perfect.

Dou Ya worked very well in Huasheng Group. With Ling Tianyi’s intentional or unintentional help, Dou Ya bought a house in the suburb of A City two years ago. Although it was a little far for her to go to work, there was a direct bus at that time. She bought a car later, so the traffic was not a problem.

“I planned to call her and greet her at the beginning. But I had a headache, being busy with a lot of things about Taotao,” Xia Xiaoluo said with a smile, “Cousin, Dou Ya is my best friend, you must treat her well, and you can not bully her.”

“Why would you say that? Am I a person who always bullies others? Besides, you know Dou Ya’s temper. Her temper is too hot. How dare I bully her?” Ouyang Ziqian said with a smile. In fact, he really liked Dou Ya’s forthrightness. She would show everything out easily. She was unlike many women who wore masks forever.

“I just say it. I know how nice you are!” Xia Xiaoluo stuck her tongue out. Frankly speaking, Ouyang Ziqian treated her very well. She had nothing to say.

“By the way, grandpa is going to visit the orphanage where your mother lived next week. Aunt Xiao Lan is going to come back and go with him as well.” Ouyang Ziqian hasn’t finished, and Xia Xiaoluo was anxious.

“No, aunt Xiao Lan can’t come back,” Xia Xiaoluo said hurriedly. “I also talked with aunt Xiao Lan on the phone a few days ago. Brother Su Cheng got injured because of me, and he just discharged a few days ago. His wife is pregnant, and she is going to give birth to the baby. Aunt Xiao Lan is very busy. Brother Su Cheng and his wife both need to be taken care of now.”

“Don’t worry, Xiaoluo. I know more about the situation in Y Country than you. We have arranged the best nursing staff to take care of Su Cheng and his wife. There is absolutely no problem. Think about it. Aunt Xiao Lan is tired these days, she can relax when she comes back,” Ouyang Ziqian said, “And as for Susan, we have arranged someone to help her to ask for leave in the hospital to let her rest at ease. We also sent the specialized staff to take care of her. You don’t need to worry about all these things.”

“Well! This time, I made them into trouble. I felt guilty when I thought of it!” Xia Xiaoluo sighed helplessly.

“No, Xiaoluo, it was not your fault. It was our fault. It was because of my mother, she… she was too heartless. And I didn’t protect you and Taotao well. I apologized to you again. I am really sorry.” Ouyang Ziqian was full of guilty in his heart.

“No, cousin, it’s nothing. It’s over, so don’t mention it. Taotao and I are all right. As long as Su Cheng and Susan are well, it would be the best.” Xia Xiaoluo sighed.

“Oh, right, I just said that I discussed with grandpa, we’d better not take Taotao to go to that kind of place like the orphanage. After all, Taotao is too young. Seeing too many dark things may leave a bad impression on him,” Ouyang Ziqian said.

“You are right. Taotao is too young now. His mind is not mature enough. I will take him to visit there when he grows up. The orphanage isn’t the flood or a monster. It can’t be avoided all the time,” Xia Xiaoluo said.

Ouyang Ziqian nodded. “Do you think that it’s OK to let Dou Ya take care of Taotao when we go to the orphanage together? I’ll let her ask for leave in advance. It should be OK for her to take care of Taotao for one day.”

“If Dou Ya is busy with her work, I have another arrangement!” Xia Xiaoluo thought for a while. “Today we had lunch outside, accidentally we met Taotao’s grandparents. The two elders like Taotao very much, but there is no chance for them to be intimate with Taotao.”

“You mean that let Taotao play with his grandparents for a day?” Ouyang Ziqian asked, “Don’t you mind what they did to you before?”

“As I said, it was over. I don’t want the previous things to affect Taotao. Since the elders like Taotao so much, it’s also good for Taotao to enjoy more love!” Xia Xiaoluo sighed.

Ouyang Ziqian nodded. “I could rarely see such an open-minded girl like you. But I’m afraid that grandpa won’t agree!”

“What’s more, Xiaoluo, are you sure you really want to choose Ling Tianyi?” Ouyang Ziqian asked.

“Yes, I still choose Ling Tianyi, and my attitude is very firm!” Xia Xiaoluo said with a smile, “So since I made a decision, I would not do anything against my own choice. Now let Taotao get along with his grandparents properly. This is actually good for everyone.”

“But Taotao’s great-grandpa will be jealous!” Ouyang Ziqian said with a smile. Xia Xiaoluo smiled as well.

“Don’t worry, Xiaoluo. If you really choose Ling Tianyi, I will support you!” Ouyang Ziqian said.

Ouyang Ziqian wanted to delay the matter of going to the orphanage to next week, but Ouyang Feng could not wait anymore. When Xiao Lan got off the plane, a group of people went to F City directly, without letting Xiao Lan get used to the jet lag.

As for Taotao, although Ouyang Feng was unhappy, he finally allowed Ling Tianyi to take Taotao to see Taotao’s grandparents.

Ling Tianyi was flattered. Since Ling Desheng and He Meishu saw Taotao once, they always missed him. And they bought many toys for Taotao, preparing everything for him. However, Ling Tianyi was always afraid to promise to take Taotao back to see them, because he was afraid that Ouyang Feng would not agree. It was good now. If he took Taotao back, the two elders would certainly be happy about it.

“Daddy, why can’t I go to F County and play with mommy and great-grandpa?” Taotao was playing with a short rolling pin. In his mind, it was the magic weapon to fight against his father.

“Because it’s a long way from here to F County. You’re a little kid, and you’ll feel uncomfortable about the long trip.” Ling Tianyi found an excuse randomly.

“Is it far from Y Country?” Taotao asked.

Ling Tianyi didn’t know what to say. He thought for a while and said, “We can’t compare them. F County is far-off. The eating and living conditions there are bad. What’s more, daddy will take you to see your grandparents today. I heard that they bought a lot of toys for you!”

“The toys? Is there a toy plane?” Taotao was a child, after all. When he heard that he would own many toys, his eyes began to shine.

“Maybe there is! We’ll know when we get there.” Ling Tianyi said. He only knew that his parents bought the toys for Taotao, but he didn’t know what they bought.

“Daddy, I want to call sister Xiaoxiao. I haven’t called her today!” Taotao said.

“OK, it will take about twenty minutes to go there by car. You can call her if you want!” Ling Tianyi agreed happily. He was in a good mood today. Although he could not accompany Xia Xiaoluo to F County, he could completely accompany his son for the whole day. He was also very happy.

Taotao and the little beauty were talking on the phone happily. Ling Tianyi also called his parents. “Mom, Xiaoluo and her grandpa go to F City to deal with something. Taotao is with me today. I will bring him back to see you.”

“Really? Can you really bring Taotao back?” He Meishu’s eyes were bright.

“I won’t lie to you. We will arrive home in 20 minutes.” Ling Tianyi heard that He Meishu said in a surprising and doubtful tone. He thought that this opportunity was really good.

“Good. That’s so good.” He Meishu became excited. “Do you have breakfast? I will ask them to prepare for you.”

“We had breakfast. You can prepare for lunch. Taotao likes eating seafood.” Ling Tianyi didn’t want to spoil children, but in order to make Taotao like his grandparents, he chose to give them a suggestion.

“I know. I know.” He Meishu was too excited. “OK, I’ll tell your father and let him make some preparation.”

“OK! That’s it! Bye!” Ling Tianyi just was about to hang up, but he thought of something. So he said hurriedly, “Mom, don’t hang up!”

He Meishu was still on the phone. “I’m still here. What’s the matter? Something about Taotao?”

“I heard you said that you bought a lot of toys for Taotao. Is there a toy plane?” Ling Tianyi asked.

“Yes, maybe. It was your father who chose those toys. We bought too many toys. All of them were put in the toy room, and we have to look for it.” He Meishu said.

“That’s OK. Taotao just asked me if there was a toy plane?” Ling Tianyi said with a smile.

“Yes, there must be one. I have everything my grandson likes!” He Meishu said, “OK, I will hang up. I’ll look for the toy plane first.”

He Meishu hung up and shouted to the study, “What are you doing in the study? Why don’t you come out quickly? Taotao will come here in 20 minutes.”

Ling Desheng was drinking tea in the study. When he heard ‘Taotao’, he jumped up from the sofa immediately. “What? What? Is Taotao coming?”

“Yes! Your son just called back. He said that Xiaoluo had something to do. Today he is with Taotao. They are on the way. They’ll come here in 20 minutes. I think they’ll be here in 15 minutes because they have set out.” He Meishu was so happy.

“Good! Good! I’ll go to change my clothes!” Ling Desheng was excited as well.

“Don’t change your clothes. Your son said that Taotao wanted to play the toy plane. I remembered that you picked up a toy plane in the toy store. Go to find it quickly!” He Meishu was very excited.

“Yes, I will look for it, look for the toy plane. My grandson actually likes the toy plane. Ha! I chose the toy planes. The toy military bomber toy is green, and there is a white toy remote-controlled helicopter.” Ling Desheng did not change the clothes. He rushed to the toy room with He Meishu directly.

“Oh, right. Taotao wanted to eat seafood for lunch. I will go to tell the cook in the kitchen.” He Meishu looked for the toy plan for a while, and then she asked the butler to arrange the seafood for lunch.

The two elders were very busy at home to welcome their grandson.
