Shocking! A three-year-old brings his aloof mother to their door.

Tongtong thought for a moment, her little face full of seriousness: "Tongtong wants to buy yummy food!"

Mo Ye pinched her little nose: "Okay, but you can't buy too much, just a little."

Tongtong nodded vigorously: "Tongtong can just buy a little bit~"

The air conditioning in the mall was very strong, a stark contrast to the heat outside.

Mo Ye first took Tongtong to buy snacks, as he had promised her.

Tongtong stood in front of the shelf, her little hands behind her back, carefully choosing for a long time, and finally only took a bag of bear cookies and a bag of fruit gummies.

Mo Ye glanced at her, then took another box of milk-flavored steamed buns and put it in.

Tongtong hugged the bag, smiling contentedly.

Next, it was time to pick out a gift for Jiang Shuya. Mo Ye stood in front of the skincare counter for a while, then turned to He Wanqing and asked, "Wanqing, do you want some skincare products?"

He Wanqing shook her head: "We still have some at home, so we won't be short of them for a while."

Mo Ye nodded, but still bought her a Tenny Brown suit.

Before He Wanqing could stop him, he had already asked the teller to wrap it up.

Then he picked out a La Prairie outfit for Jiang Shuya.

Next came bird's nest, fish maw, and Ganoderma lucidum spore powder, which I added to my shopping cart one by one.

Finally, I picked out a jadeite bangle. It had excellent texture and a light green hue.

Looking at the shopping cart piled high with items, He Wanqing finally couldn't help but say, "If you buy any more, my mom will probably get angry."

Mo Ye then stopped, looked at the shopping cart, and then at He Wanqing, as if he was still thinking about what else he might have missed.

He Wanqing glared at him, and only then did he look away and turn to pick out a gift for He Yanzhou.

Mo Ye took two bottles of Feitian Moutai and one box of Wuyixing Da Hong Pao. After carefully examining the packaging and confirming that they were genuine, he put them into the shopping cart.

"We can just buy some fruit later." Mo Ye pushed the shopping cart toward the checkout counter.

He Wanqing followed beside him, while Tongtong sat in the shopping cart, holding her bag of snacks, her two short legs swinging back and forth.

When the three of them arrived home, the flowers had already been delivered.

Several large potted plants were neatly arranged at the entrance of the yard, their leaves lush and green, glistening in the sunlight.

Mo Ye paid the final payment and carried the potted flowers into the yard one by one.

He rolled up his sleeves, picked up a shovel, and began digging a hole in the yard.

He Wanqing took a towel from the house, stood next to him, and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead when he straightened up to wipe his sweat.

Mo Ye turned his head to look at her and smiled, "It's different when my wife wipes her sweat."

He Wanqing rolled her eyes at him, said nothing, but didn't stop what she was doing.

Mo Ye took the flower out of the seedling pot, gently loosened the soil ball at the bottom, and put it into the dug hole.

He Wanqing squatted down beside him and helped him gather the soil around the base of the plant.

The two worked together seamlessly, one digging the hole and the other filling it with soil. Neither of them spoke, but every movement was perfectly timed.

Tongtong squatted down and watched for a while, then suddenly ran into the house with a "da da da" sound, ran out with her little watering can, filled it to the brim with water, held it in both hands, and walked over unsteadily.

He Wanqing also grabbed a watering can, and the mother and daughter squatted down in front of the newly planted flowers to start watering them.

While watering the flowers, Tongtong babbled in a cutesy voice, "Flowers, drink water~ Don't die~" She watered them very carefully, making sure to water every single flower and even the grass next to them.

He Wanqing couldn't help but smile as she looked at her daughter's earnest little face.

This little one is incredibly cute when he's not fighting with me over Mo Ye.

Mo Ye straightened up and looked at the courtyard. The bird of paradise stood in the corner, its leaves broad and outstretched.

Plant jasmine and mandevilla next to the swing trellis. Once they cover the trellis, the area will become a sea of ​​flowers.

Night-blooming jasmine was planted along the courtyard wall, and sunflowers were planted in the sunniest spot.

There are also Tongtong's two potted plants, placed on the second-floor balcony, directly facing her room.

He stuck the shovel into the soil and patted the mud off his hands.

He Wanqing walked over and handed him a glass of water.

He took it and drank a big gulp, water droplets dripping down his chin and onto his collar.

He Wanqing reached out to wipe it off for him, and her fingertips felt slightly cool when they touched his neck.

After watering the flowers, Tongtong ran over and hugged Moye's leg, tilting her little face up, her face covered in mud and a little bit on the tip of her nose: "Daddy, when will the flowers grow up?"

Mo Ye squatted down and used his sleeve to wipe the mud off her nose: "If Tongtong waters them every day, they will slowly grow."

Tongtong nodded, then ran back and squatted in front of the flowerpot, staring at the newly planted Dendrobium orchid for a long time, as if hoping it would bloom the next second.

Mo Ye and He Wanqing stood in the courtyard, looking at the flowers all over the yard, and then at the little dumpling squatting in front of the flowerpot. They looked at each other and smiled.

Mo Ye suddenly remembered something, leaned close to He Wanqing's ear, and whispered something intimate that only the two of them could understand:

"You should remember, you said you'd wear a bikini for me, right?"

He Wanqing was bending down to tidy up the flowerpots when she heard this, and her hand paused, her face turning red at a visible speed.

She straightened up, tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear, and whispered, barely a whisper, "I remember. But where would I find a swimsuit like that?"

Mo Ye's eyes lit up, and he immediately perked up: "Black, white, pink, purple, what color do you like? I'll buy it for you, or even a complete set."

He Wanqing rolled her eyes at him.

She didn't want him to buy it for her; she figured it would be the same as not wearing anything at all once she put it on.

She pursed her lips and refused in a curt tone, "I can buy it myself, so I won't trouble you."

Mo Ye reached out and put his arm around her shoulder, pulling her closer to him, his tone carrying an air of self-righteous indifference: "How can something like this be considered troublesome?"

He loved doing these kinds of troublesome things. His mind was already starting to uncontrollably conjure up images of He Wanqing wearing bikinis of various colors: black lace, pure white, sweet pink, and sexy purple.

His lips unconsciously curled up, and his eyes darted around.

Looking at his silly grin, He Wanqing knew that his mind was full of lewd nonsense.

She spoke coolly, "What are you thinking? Can you please stop having such lewd thoughts in your head?"

Mo Ye immediately stopped smiling, put on a righteous face, and said in a righteous tone, "You are not yellow trash."

He Wanqing opened her mouth, then closed it again.

She found that she could never win an argument with him.

She steered the conversation back on track: "I can't go in the water right now, I'll wait until my period is over."

Mo Ye nodded, pulling his thoughts back from the image of the bikini: "Is the small pool clean?"

He Wanqing shook her head, her fingers unconsciously drawing circles on the sofa:

"Not yet. The small pool hasn't been used in a long time, and it's still not filled with water. I'll contact the property management and ask them to take care of it for us, so we can use it as soon as possible."

Mo Ye's voice lowered, carrying a hint of probing and a touch of ingratiation:

"It's fine whenever you want to get it sorted out. Actually, you can just wear it and show it to me directly; you don't need to go to the pool."

He paused, then added, "I just wanted to admire your figure, um... just look..."
