Chapter 818
Chapter 818: Chapter 802 I’m Looking for You Chapter 818: Chapter 802 I’m Looking for You When Tang Yuxin entered, Tang Xincheng was already packing books into his backpack, suggesting that he must have finished his homework.
That was one commendable quality of the Tang Family’s child.
They never caused the adults any worry about their studies.
Of course, she hoped that her family’s two little “Baozi” would be the same in the future; otherwise, it would mean she had truly accumulated bad karma in her past life, having to tutor her children in their homework.
Tang Yuxin took out her meal cards, two in total, and placed them in front of Tang Xincheng, “These are for you to use.
One is from your brother-in-law’s company, and the other is from the hospital.
You can eat at either place.”
Gu Ning’s side wasn’t accessible to just anyone, but exceptions were made for Tang Yuxin and, of course, for Tang Xincheng.
If asked about this privilege, it wasn’t so much about Tang Yuxin’s influence but rather Gu Ning’s clout as the boss.
Somehow the right strings were pulled, and Tang Xincheng was allowed access.
Not only could he train with those guys when he had nothing better to do, but he could also dine in their cafeteria.
True to his sister’s nature, Tang Xincheng didn’t like the hospital cafeteria food either; they both preferred eating there, especially enjoying the cabbage and tofu soup.
Although made with very common ingredients, the nutrition was quite high, and of course, the taste wasn’t bad either.
“I’m off to get some cabbage and tofu soup,” said Tang Xincheng, his eyes shining brightly as he took the cards.

“You’re such a simpleton,” chided Tang Yuxin as she flicked her brother’s forehead.
“What’s so good about cabbage and tofu?
You should eat more meat to grow taller.”
“Hehe…”
Tang Xincheng bashfully rubbed his head, “The teacher said that nutrition should be balanced.
Without cabbage, you can’t grow big.”
Tang Yuxin was reminded of her past life, which was filled with eating cabbage; it was only after a lifetime of cabbage that she had grown so tall and spent her life as a “stalk of cabbage.” Therefore, it was only in this new life that she had Tang Xincheng.
So, it’s no wonder Tang Xincheng loves cabbage.
If it weren’t for his sister being a cabbage in her previous life, perhaps this life wouldn’t have him loving cabbage as he does.
Tang Xincheng put the meal cards back in his pocket, ready to go and freeload a meal at his brother-in-law’s.
He made his way to the bedside, caressed his little nephew’s chubby hand, and then headed out.
Tang Yuxin watched as Tang Xincheng left, shaking her head.
This child really shot up so fast.
She remembered when her brother was just as small as Gu Dabai, hiding snacks for his sister while still being a little milky-smelling bundle.

But now, he had grown into a strapping young man.
Although he was still a primary school student, he had grown quite tall and handsome.
In a few years, he would be a big lad, and she, by contrast, would become a yellow-faced woman.
She shuddered at the thought, finding it somewhat terrifying.
She would have to take better care of herself so as not to end up like in her past life; at thirty-three, she had looked fifty-three.
People should really aim to stay youthful as they age.
Appearance is one thing, of course, but inner cultivation is another.
She walked over to the bedside and sat down, stroking her son’s little face, “When you grow up, Mommy will definitely make you proud.
I’ll become the most impressive and beautiful mommy.”
She was confident; she had the recipe for longevity, and although eternal youth was impossible, the ancient prescriptions for maintenance were numerous.
At forty, to have the complexion of a young girl was certainly achievable.
She wasn’t afraid of being called an old witch; these days, witches were popular.
What’s not popular is being an ordinary woman who worked her life away, only to gain what in the end?
Resentment from men, and their infidelity.
Even though she believed Gu Ning wasn’t that kind of man, let’s face it, Gu Ning was already getting on in years, and by the time she got old, he would probably be an old codger himself.
But still…
She thought about what Gu Ning looked like at forty in his previous life, and it did seem like he was still young.
As women age, they tend to appear older, but it’s different for men.
Men become more mature and flavorful with age, growing more charming as they get older.
So she should really take good care of herself, otherwise, in time her husband might become a blossoming flower while she turns into the mother of that flower.
Gu Dabai didn’t seem to know what he was dreaming about either, as his tiny lips also cracked into an upward smile.
But Tang Yuxin really couldn’t understand – such a big kid, and he was still dreaming?
And what on earth could he be dreaming about?
“Don’t look, it won’t hurt,”
Tang Zhinian reassured Gu Dabai, then pressed the little boy’s head into his embrace.
Gu Dabai, clearly still not grown up, was unaware of what pain meant.
He gnawed on his tender little fingers, oblivious to his thoughts.
“Don’t hurt my grandson.”
Tang Zhinian warned Tang Yuxin, “If he cries later, I’ll have a word with you.”
Tang Yuxin “…”
She really wanted to say that even if she was gentle, this was about drawing blood.
If the needle didn’t go in, how could the blood come out?
The human body, being flesh and bones, naturally can’t tolerate any foreign particles; it’s even more opposed to things that don’t belong to it.
Pain is the body’s first line of defense; feeling pain is correct, and if there were no pain, she would cry.
She grabbed Baozi’s little finger, quickly pricked it, and drew some blood.
Baozi first looked curiously at his mother for a long while, then slowly, his lips began to quiver, and he started to cry out loud, calling for his grandpa.
By this time, Tang Yuxin had already left,
“Your reaction time seems a bit slow, doesn’t it?”
Tang Zhinian patted his grandson’s little head, “You see, if you had cried like this when she first pricked you, your grandpa could have helped you.
But now, you’re crying, so who is your grandpa supposed to find?”
Gu Dabai sobbed a couple of times, took a breath through his tiny nose, and then lay on his grandpa’s shoulder, “Grandpa, mom is bad.”
Tired from crying, he stopped.
“Alright, it’s good that you’ve stopped crying.
Grandpa knows mom is bad, but however bad she is, she’s still your dear mother.”
Tang Zhinian patted his grandson’s little shoulder.
Once the test results came back and if they were favorable, little Gu Dabai wouldn’t have to stay in the hospital anymore and could go home.
When Tang Yuxin came back in, Gu Dabai had already had his stomach filled and was now dozing off on his grandfather’s lap, having drooled all over his pants.
But he really was his grandpa’s little treasure, even more doted on than his uncle.
His grandfather simply adored him, and it seemed like even the drool Gu Dabai left was cute to him.
