Quick Travel: Punishing the Love Brain

Chapter 303: Control Group of Children from Wealthy Families (11)

In the main house of the Min family, Old Lady Min took her grandson Min Yuanjia from the housekeeper's arms and said, "Jia Jia, my precious grandson, do you miss grandma? Grandma misses you too..."

Little Yuanjia is not afraid of strangers. He stayed quietly in his grandmother's arms for a while, and then started to make a fuss about sleep. Children's way of making a fuss about sleep is to cry. Grandma Min could still coax him patiently at first, but as soon as there was a little noise, little Yuanjia would start crying again, and she became at a loss.

"Don't cry, don't cry, Jiajia, don't cry, don't you want to sleep? Can grandma pat you? Ouch! Don't cry!"

"Wuuuuuu——" Little Yuanjia's face turned red from crying, and even the pacifier didn't work.

Old Madam Min called out to the people outside, "Why don't you come in quickly! The young master is crying like this, are you deaf?"

The person outside hesitated for a while and stood outside the door. "Madam, the madam said that you had told me before that I have to take care of the child myself and not let anyone else do it..."

Old Mrs. Min was stunned for a moment, "You! You guys! Do you still care whether the child can be handed over to someone else? He's crying like this! Why don't you get in now!"

"...Yes." The servants ran in and followed Old Lady Min to comfort the crying little Yuanjia.

Half an hour later, little Yuanjia, whose eyes were red from crying, fell asleep, sobbing from time to time. Old Mrs. Min felt both distressed and afraid of this little ancestor, so she tiptoed when she and several servants went out. Not long after she closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief, she heard heart-wrenching cries from inside.

"Oh! My Jiajia! What's wrong with you?" Old Mrs. Min immediately ran in, picked her up and comforted her.

Several servants followed behind her, some patting her back to soothe her, some feeding her with pacifiers, and some clapping their hands to coax the child.

Little Yuanjia leaned on old lady Min's shoulder, clenching his fists tightly, "Woo ah..."

"Don't cry! Grandma's sweetheart!"

When Mr. Min came home from a walk outside, he found the house in a mess. There was a crying child on the second floor. He frowned and walked over, "What's going on?"

But no one could respond to him. The servants and Old Madam Min were all paying attention to little Yuanjia. No one paid any attention to him until he walked into the room.

Old Min also saw clearly that these people were surrounding his grandson Min Yuanjia. He looked at the baby supplies around him and frowned even deeper. Why was Yuanjia at the old house?

"You're back? What are you standing there for? Come, hold Jiajia. My hands are sore after holding him for a while. He's obviously about to fall asleep, but he wakes up after a while and cries when he wakes up! I can't stand it anymore, you hold him! Quick!" Old Mrs. Min didn't care whether Old Min was willing or not, and directly put the crying little Yuanjia in his arms. The moment he took over, she felt relaxed all over.

"No! You!" Old Min had never seen such a scene before. He held little Yuanjia stiffly and tried to coax him a few times, but it was useless. He looked at Mrs. Min, "What's going on? Isn't Yuanjia doing well with his daughter-in-law? How did you bring him here? We don't know how to take care of children!"

"Me! I didn't bring him here voluntarily! Qian Yuli brought him here herself!" Mrs. Min said this with a guilty and evasive look in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, how could Elder Min not understand what was going on? "It must be you who is causing trouble again! You should take care of the trouble yourself!"

Then he pushed the crying and fussing little Yuanjia back into the arms of Old Lady Min, "I'm going to play chess next door, don't look for me if you have nothing to do! It's so noisy, why are you making so much trouble every day!"

Old Mrs. Min was so angry that she looked left and right. She no longer had the love and pity she had at the beginning towards Min Yuanjia. She even felt angry and disgusted. She couldn't control her emotions for a moment, "Okay! Stop crying! What did I do to you! Don't you want to sleep? Just sleep! I didn't disturb you!" "Ahhh——"

After being yelled at by Old Lady Min, little Yuanjia cried even louder.

"Hurry up and help me hold it, my hands are sore!"

Little Yuanjia finally went to sleep because he was tired. Looking at the tears on his eyelashes, Old Mrs. Min felt that she was haggard. Her hands were sore from holding him, but she did not dare to put little Yuanjia down. Instead, she continued to hold him against the head of the bed, staring blankly into the air.

She had driven out all the useless servants. They were all clumsy and would make some noise from time to time and wake up little Yuanjia. In the end, she had to do it herself.

When she walked out of the room, her whole body was extremely stiff. She pulled the nearest servant, blushed, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Did the Madam say how long she would keep Yuanjia here?"

"...No, old lady."

Old Madam Min looked at her in astonishment, "No? Then, what about that person? Did he say anything?"

"No, but he did call to ask about the young master's situation, but he didn't care about the other young masters."

When Mrs. Min thought about the heart-wrenching cries she would have to face in the next few days, she felt that the world had become dark. "Go, go call the young master's residence..."

At the Min family villa, Qian Yuli was leaning against the sofa, eating grapes, tapping the sofa handle with her fingers following the tunes of Peking opera on TV. The housekeeper stood aside for a while before hesitating and saying, "Madam, someone just called from the old house."

Qian Yuli raised her eyebrows and glanced at him, smiling brightly, "Is it mom calling to show off that she can take care of the child?"

The butler pursed his lips: "...No."

Qian Yuli raised her hand to stop the housekeeper from saying the next words, "Alas, we had a quarrel not long ago, and our relationship is strained. I asked you to send Jia Jia over so that she and I can get closer. So no matter how much I miss Jia Jia and love her, I will keep Jia Jia by her side. Tell her not to worry, I will never stop her from making up for her love for Jia Jia just because of my missing her."

The housekeeper opened and closed his mouth again and again, "But, but the old lady said..."

"I know! You don't have to tell me, I understand!" Qian Yuli was considerate. "Mom isn't a bad person, just a little weird. In a few days, I really can't help wanting to see Jiajia anymore, so I'll go pick Jiajia up and learn from her how to raise a child."

The housekeeper's words got stuck in his throat. He lowered his head and said, "On the other end of the phone, the young master was crying very hard..."

The crying sound was obviously far away from the phone, but everyone could hear that the child was really in pain. He looked at Qian Yuli's calm expression and was a little surprised, "Madam?"

Qian Yuli's eyes fell on the housekeeper, and she sat up straight, her eyes filled with sadness. "I know what you want to say. I feel sorry for him, too. Just hold on for a few more days. I'll pick him up in a few days."

Acting too coldly would probably arouse suspicion, so Qian Yuli acted absent-minded for the next few days. Minren and her three good sisters noticed that something was wrong with her. Qian Yuli said that she was missing her son. When they suggested bringing Min Yuanjia back, Qian Yuli said that she wanted to rely on Yuanjia to ease the strained relationship between her and her mother-in-law.

She acted like a good daughter-in-law who was striving for perfection, which moved Minren so much that she collected some valuable jewelry and gave them to Qian Yuli.
