Chapter 326: Mom

~9 min read 1,606 words

Returning home, his mother was watching TV in the room while eating the noodles she had cooked herself.

It seemed she was also too busy to have dinner, so she quickly made some for herself after getting home.

"You're back, want to eat? There's still some in the pot in the kitchen, go serve yourself if you want."

Tang Xiuxia looked at her son and said.

"Yes, I'll go get a bowl."

Qin Tian smiled and went directly to the kitchen in the back room.

Finding a large porcelain bowl, he served a large bowl of noodles from the pot.

Carrying the bowl and slurping the noodles, he returned to the front room, sat down next to his mother, and placed the large porcelain bowl on the coffee table.

"How is Nuannuan? Is she okay?"

Tang Xiuxia put the poached egg she hadn't eaten in her bowl into her son's bowl.

"She's fine."

Qin Tian picked up the poached egg and took a big bite, saying: "Her father came back."

Tang Xiuxia froze for a moment, then hurriedly asked: "Did he scold you?"

Qin Tian was suddenly a bit dumbfounded, looking at his mother helplessly: "Mom, why does it feel like you hope I get scolded?"

"Wasn't it your fault? Getting scolded a few times won't make you lose a piece of flesh, it's better than him holding fire in his heart and having complaints about you."

Tang Xiuxia said seriously.

"That's... very reasonable."

Qin Tian rolled his eyes speechlessly, lowered his head to slurp a big mouthful of noodles, and said vaguely: "Don't worry, who am I? I apologized to Old Xia immediately without a word, my attitude was very correct."

"Good job."

Tang Xiuxia slapped his thigh, nodded with a bright smile: "As expected of my son, it should be like this. And then?"

"Then it was fine. Aunt Su and her grandparents told us not to mention today's matter anymore, we sat and chatted about some idle things, and then I came back."

"It's fortunate that Nuannuan's family is very reasonable. If it were many other families encountering this, they wouldn't care if it was your fault or not. If their daughter encountered such danger, they would have scolded you, the boyfriend, until you were soaked in blood and forbidden you from seeing each other."

"Yes!"

Qin Tian nodded in deep agreement.

"Don't run around in the next few days. There are many people on the streets during the holidays. If you really want to go out, go with Nuannuan, don't go play by yourself."

"Understood!"

"Eat your noodles, go wash up and sleep after eating. Remember to call Nuannuan, so she doesn't feel scared and can't sleep."

"Hmm!"

Qin Tian agreed honestly.

"Mom, the 8th is Nuannuan's birthday. Uncle Xia said to let you come over and celebrate her birthday together."

"Pfft——"

Tang Xiuxia had just picked up the cup beside her to take a sip of water, and upon hearing this, she sprayed it out directly, coughing repeatedly, and looked at her son with a shocked expression.

"What are you doing!"

Qin Tian hurriedly pulled out two tissues and handed them over amusingly.

"What did you say? Let me go over?"

Tang Xiuxia took the tissues to wipe the water stains on her mouth and asked hurriedly.

"Yes!"

"This..."

Tang Xiuxia was a bit dumbfounded, a look of hesitation appearing on her face.

Getting along with the future mother-in-law was already no problem, but Xia Nuannuan's father, as well as her grandparents, were people she hadn't met yet!

To suddenly go to the future daughter-in-law's house, she really wasn't prepared.

"Uncle Xia said it's up to you. If you don't go, he'll arrange a formal meeting during the New Year."

"Then what did you say? Do you want me to go?"

Tang Xiuxia asked with a bitter face.

"It's also up to you!"

Qin Tian shrugged indifferently.

"That's the same as not saying anything!"

Tang Xiuxia rolled her eyes, and while using tissues to wipe the water stains on the coffee table, she frowned and hesitated.

Qin Tian ate his noodles in big mouthfuls, staring at her to make her own decision.

"Let's do this, I won't go this time. I'll prepare a birthday gift, and one for her grandparents, and you can take them over when the time comes."

After a long time, Tang Xiuxia said.

"Alright!"

Qin Tian nodded and picked up the large porcelain bowl to drink the noodle soup.

"Gifts... speaking of which, have you prepared your birthday gift for Nuannuan? Eighteen years old, and it's her first birthday, you can't be careless!"

Tang Xiuxia reminded him seriously.

"Just put your heart in your stomach. I started preparing long ago, it's almost done now, and I'll definitely be able to finish it in the next few days."

Qin Tian smiled confidently.

"What is it? Why does it sound like a big project? What did you prepare?"

Tang Xiuxia asked with curiosity.

"Then I can't tell you, it's a secret!"

Qin Tian grinned and stood up, saying: "Full and satisfied, I'm going to take a shower."

"Stinky brat, still keeping me in suspense, huh!"

"Of course, it's not a gift for you, why would I tell you."

"Hey... hurry up and get lost!"

Tang Xiuxia waved her hand to chase him away with an annoyed face.

"How about I reveal some information, you guess it yourself!"

Qin Tian said with a cheeky smile.

"I'll guess your head, get lost!"

Tang Xiuxia raised her hand as if to hit him.

"Forget it if you don't want to know, why are you hitting people!"

Qin Tian ran away in a flash.

Watching him run out of the room, Tang Xiuxia shook her head, unable to laugh or cry.

"This stinky brat, still showing off in front of his old mother!"

……

……

While showering, Qin Tian suddenly thought about the Youth Preserving Ointment.

Consequently, after showering and changing into clean pajamas, Qin Tian found an exquisite small bag and put four of the six bottles of Youth Preserving Ointment he had redeemed into it.

He was prepared to leave the other two bottles for Xia Nuannuan and his future mother-in-law.

If it really worked well, he would redeem more later. If the points weren't enough, he would just work hard to earn money and pay-to-win.

Carrying the small bag, he returned to the front room.

His mother had just finished washing the dishes and was leaning on the sofa watching TV. Hearing the movement, she turned her head to look at him.

"Finished washing, what are you holding?"

"A gift!"

Qin Tian answered with a smile.

"A gift? For Nuannuan? I already said I didn't want to know."

Tang Xiuxia showed an unwilling expression, but her eyes were full of curiosity as she sized up the bag, seemingly wanting to judge what was inside through the bag.

"No, this is for you."

"For me?"

Tang Xiuxia froze.

"Yes, high-end goods I specifically bought for you from Jiangcheng, I forgot to give it to you yesterday."

Qin Tian lied casually.

"What is it? Still high-end goods."

Tang Xiuxia was skeptical.

"Good stuff!"

Qin Tian sat down beside her with a smile, took out a bottle of Youth Preserving Ointment from the bag, and explained: "This is called Youth Preserving Ointment, as the name suggests, it can beautify and nourish the skin, and improve skin and physique."

"Is it really that amazing!"

Tang Xiuxia expressed doubt, took the jade bottle from his hand and said: "Where did you buy this? You weren't cheated by some wandering quack, were you? Still using this kind of bottle, no label or brand, it looks very strange no matter how you look at it!"

"It was indeed bought from an expert, an old Chinese medicine doctor, but it really is good stuff. Look at this."

Qin Tian held up his palm.

"What is it?"

Tang Xiuxia was full of doubt, staring at his palm.

"Look at the scar from when I was a child, the one left from fighting with people."

Qin Tian reminded with a smile.

"This..."

Tang Xiuxia showed a look of shock.

She naturally remembered the scar on her son's palm. At that time, she was very angry and scolded the parents of those two naughty kids severely.

"See, I only used this ointment once, and the scar faded this much."

"Used it only once?"

Tang Xiuxia was incredulous.

"How about it? Now you know it's good stuff, right? If you still don't believe it, then forget it, I'll give them all to Nuannuan and Aunt Su!"

Qin Tian smiled and made a gesture to take the jade bottle back.

"I believe, I believe."

Tang Xiuxia immediately dodged, and took the small bag away as well.

Looking inside and seeing there were still three bottles, she beamed with joy.

"You must have more, right? For Nuannuan and your Aunt Su."

Tang Xiuxia asked with a smile.

Qin Tian nodded with a smile.

"Then these are all mine. How do I use it?"

"Just apply it externally, like applying Dabao SOD."

"Get lost, such precious good stuff, apply it like Dabao? I'm Xiaobao, hurry up and get lost to sleep."

Tang Xiuxia waved her hand to chase him away with an annoyed face.

"Fine, gave you such good stuff, and still get chased away, I'm really too miserable."

Qin Tian stood up and left.

After he walked out of the room, his mother's shout came out.

"Son, thank you!"

"No need to thank me, who else but your precious son!" ===== CHAPTER 327 =====
