Chapter 199 Have you bought a gift for your sister?
The implication is that sister Yaoyao is not with them, so there is no need to do it for her.
Tuantuan blinked and said nothing.
Then Xie Yihang started to feel confused again. Their grandparents and great-grandfather all lived alone, but he and his younger brother Tuantuan had prepared a house. Where should they live?
"Brother, let's let grandpa and grandma choose for themselves!" Xie Yihang was unable to make a decision by himself, so in order to be fair, the two children decided to let the adults choose.
Tuan Tuan had no objection, and together with Xie Yihang, they took the house they had built with building blocks and went over to let the adults choose.
The adults naturally wanted to treat both children equally, so they decided to take both children's houses and let them live in one place for one day and in the other place for another.
The two kids were stunned at first, but then they felt it was fair and had no objections.
When he returned home at night, Xie Yanchuan saw Tuantuan holding several castles that he had assembled before, but he didn't say anything.
The next day was Monday. Xie Yanchuan had to go to class and the laboratory. Fortunately, Tuantuan was used to getting up early every day. In the morning, Xie Yanchuan said goodbye to Tuantuan before leaving.
After Xie Yanchuan left, only Tuan Tuan and the servants were left at home.
Tuantuan played by himself at home for a while first, and then his aunt took him out to play. Although there were few residents in the villa area here, there were still quite a few children scattered around.
It’s just because of Tuantuan’s personality that he doesn’t like playing with those kids. But even if Tuantuan doesn’t like playing with them, his aunt will still take Tuantuan out with them.
More contact is always good.
But when some aunts brought their children together and saw that Tuantuan was always unwilling to play with the other children, they couldn't help but ask Aunt Cui who was taking care of Tuantuan, "Does your child have some personality problems?"
Although the other party spoke in a low voice, Tuantuan was right next to Aunt Cui, so he must have heard it. However, he was still squatting on the ground, concentrating on looking at the little ant, as if he didn't hear it.
When Aunt Cui heard this, her expression changed immediately and she scolded him harshly, "What nonsense are you talking about! Tuantuan is just like that, just like our husband, he just likes to be alone and quiet."
We all see each other all the time, and it's not something that should be concealed. Although it's impossible to reveal the private information of the employer's family, we already know who does what.
For example, they all know who Tuantuan belongs to and what his family does.
Another aunt said, "Yes, I've seen Professor Xie bring Tuantuan out to play a few times. He looks very gentle and kind."
"She was so patient with Tuantuan, worthy of being a teacher. My husband just doesn't want to play with children."
"Yes, Professor Xie is really patient. He spends more time with the children than Mrs. Xie."
Aunt Cui explained perfunctorily, "It can't be helped. Mr. Xu is usually quite busy, but he will try his best to make time to accompany Tuantuan."
"Yes, when I was at home, I heard our husband say that Mrs. Xie was amazing."
Somehow the topic got off track, and no one continued to talk about Tuan Tuan's personality issues.
Not long after, Tuantuan didn't want to stay here anymore. He raised his head and looked at Aunt Cui. Without saying anything, Aunt Cui already knew what he meant.
"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going to take my young master back first." Aunt Cui said with a smile.
Then he said goodbye to his old friend and left with Tuantuan.
The people who had spoken before didn't say much when they saw Aunt Cui taking Tuantuan away. After all, they all knew that he was not an ordinary young master. The elders in his family were people who had to be polite to their employers. It was not until the sun gradually set that Xie Yanchuan returned home and had dinner with Tuantuan.

Xu Jinzhi's business trip went smoothly and he returned to City A a week later.
Due to time constraints, Xie Yanchuan was unable to go to the airport to pick up Xu Jinzhi, so Xu Jinzhi went straight home.
Although Tuantuan was not as clingy to Xu Jinzhi as she was to Xie Yanchuan, she still missed him a lot when Xu Jinzhi was away on a business trip for a week.
Tuantuan was naturally happy to see his mother after waking up from a nap, and he hugged Xu Jinzhi's neck tightly and refused to let go.
"Mom brought you a gift." Xu Jinzhi walked to her suitcase with Tuantuan in her arms, then put Tuantuan down and opened her suitcase.
Like all the things that kids of this age like, it was a large transforming mecha. Tuan Tuan took it, his eyes full of surprise, and he obviously liked it very much.
"Let's open it and take a look, then go find dad for dinner and come back to play in the evening, okay?" Xu Jinzhi asked gently.
Tuan Tuan nodded obediently and said a little embarrassedly, "Okay."
But after a moment, Tuantuan asked Xu Jinzhi with some confusion, "What is a sister?"
"Huh?" Xu Jin was stunned. She didn't quite understand what Tuantuan meant. Did she hear it wrong?
Xu Jinzhi asked, "What did Tuantuan just say? Mom didn't hear it clearly."
"My sister's?" Tuantuan looked at his mother, then looked at the box where he had just taken out the toys, as if he wanted to see if there was anything else inside.
The pace of Xu Jinzhi's mind could only be described as lightning and flint. In a short period of time, all kinds of messy thoughts flooded into her mind.
But Xu Jinzhi had to stay calm at this moment. She asked Tuantuan with a forced smile, "Tuantuan is asking mom if she has bought a gift for her sister, right?"
Tuantuan nodded.
Xu Jinzhi's heart was beating very fast. She tried to stay calm and continued to ask, "Does Tuantuan mean Sister Yaoyao, or does Tuantuan meet a new friend?"
In this generation of the Xie family, the only person younger than Tuantuan is a little girl from a side branch named Xie Xingyao.
Aunt Cui was standing nearby and couldn't help but interject, "Tuantuan hasn't met any new friends yet."
Xu Jinzhi raised his eyes to look at Aunt Cui, and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. After all, those words were not something that could be said casually in front of everyone.
Xu Jinzhi didn't ask, and Tuantuan didn't ask any more questions.
But Xu Jinzhi remembered this incident, and she took Tuantuan back to the bedroom. At this time, Aunt Cui was no longer around, and only Xu Jinzhi and Tuantuan were in the bedroom.
Xu Jinzhi held Tuantuan's thin shoulders with both hands, then looked into Tuantuan's eyes and asked very seriously: "Tuantuan, you just said you wanted to buy a gift for your sister, who do you want to buy it for?"
Tuantuan looked at his mother in confusion, "Mom, I don't have any money, I can't buy a gift."
Before Xu Jinzhi could say anything, Tuantuan continued, "Mine is for my sister."
My dears, I am begging for recommendations, monthly tickets, collections and rewards!
