Fang Zhicheng reached out and took Shen Wei's hand. Compared with a few years ago, Shen Wei looked more mature. She was wearing a sleeveless dress, with her two white arms completely exposed to the air. Her two long legs looked slender and long, and with her seven-centimeter high heels, she looked very elegant. The family of three shuttled through the crowd, attracting the attention of others.

Half an hour later, the car drove into the Su residence in Jiangjun Hutong. Su Qing had taken a half-day off today and made several phone calls in a row in the car. When the car stopped, Su Qing, who was standing by the door, could no longer hold back her emotions and hurried towards the car. When Shen Wei got out of the car with Shen Xuan in her arms, Su Qing held Shen Xuan in his arms and kissed her cheek hard, causing the little girl to cry.

Fang Zhicheng said unhappily: "Mom, you scared the child."

Su Qing held Shen Xuan in his arms, and saw that she was crying non-stop, feeling a little helpless. Shen Wei quickly took Shen Xuan, held her in her arms, patted her back, and whispered a few words to her. Shen Xuan looked at Su Qing timidly, turned her head and lay on Shen Wei's shoulder.

Seeing Su Qing's regretful expression, Shen Xuan quickly comforted her: "Don't worry, when Shen Xuan gets familiar with you later, she will be very crazy. She is still a little shy now."

Su Qing nodded, sighed, and said with a smile: "I am too impatient. Let's go home quickly."

Shen Wei followed behind Fang Zhicheng and laughed softly, "Your mother is different from what I imagined. I originally thought that the vice premier should be a very serious person, but I didn't expect her to be quite amiable."

Fang Zhicheng said with emotion: "The Prime Minister is also a human being, with emotions and desires. She has always been thinking about Shen Xuan. After several years, they met in real life for the first time, so she was so happy."

Shen Wei smiled and said, "So, I should have brought Shen Wei to see her earlier?"

Fang Zhicheng glanced at Shen Wei and said with a smile: "That won't work either. The timing was not right before."

The Tang family is striving for supremacy, and the Su family benefits as a strategic partner. After they have established a firm foothold, Shen Wei brings Shen Xuan to see Su Qing to prevent her from being used by someone with ulterior motives. The Ning family has long known about Shen Xuan's existence. If someone uses this to make a fuss during an unstable period, it is very likely that the cooperation between the Su and Ning factions will be damaged. Now that the Su and Ning factions have become an inseparable whole, even if someone is malicious, the impact will not be significant.

Qin Yuming cooked the meal herself. When Shen Xuan saw Qin Yuming, she ran over with a smile and said, "Mother Qin."

Qin Yuming saw that Su Qing looked unhappy and guessed what had happened before. She smiled and pointed at Su Qing and said, "Hurry up and call grandma."

Shen Xuan hid behind Qin Yuming, revealing half of her face. After thinking for a long time, she crisply called out "Grandma!"

Su Qing was overjoyed when she heard this. She took out a red envelope from her pocket and said with a smile, "My dear granddaughter, this is the New Year's money that grandma gave you. Take it and buy some candy."

Su Qing spent a lot of time preparing this red envelope.

Shen Wei stood next to Fang Zhicheng, a little unhappy, and muttered: "This good man has been taken over by Yu Ming."

Fang Zhicheng smiled and comforted her: "This is better. My mother still cares about you."

Shen Wei thought about it carefully and realized that Qin Yuming was just a godmother and she was the real mother.

Qin Yuming smiled and said, "Shen Xuan, give the red envelope to mom for safekeeping."

Shen Xuan hesitated for a long time, and looked at Shen Wei warily, "Mom, you always take my money and then spend it all on clothes."

Shen Wei was sweating profusely and said, "I saved it all for you."

Shen Xuan shook her head and said, "Grandpa said that mom is the best at spending money and can't save money."

Shen Wei was so angry after hearing this that she would have gone crazy if Su Qing hadn't been there.

Su Qing smiled and said, "My dear, mom won't use your money, give it to her quickly, you are too young."

Shen Xuan finally made up her mind, took the red envelope, stuffed it into Shen Wei's hand, and said in a baby voice: "Mom, if you really want to buy clothes, you can use it first, but you have to return it to me later."

When the adults heard Shen Xuan say this, they all laughed. Children's innocent words made it easy for people to release stress.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Su Qing held Shen Xuan on her lap and wanted to feed her. Shen Wei gave Fang Zhicheng a look, suggesting that Fang Zhicheng should not let Su Qing spoil Shen Wei. Although Shen Wei had a special personality, she was still well-behaved in the process of educating Shen Wei.

Fang Zhicheng shrugged his shoulders, gave a helpless expression, and said with a smile: "Shen Wei, let my mother accompany Xuan'er to eat together. We can eat our own food and don't worry about her."

Su Qing completely entered the role of grandma, and had no eyes for anyone else, which made Shen Wei helpless and happy. She was helpless because the prime minister was too doting on children. If she came into contact with Su Qing frequently in the future, Shen Xuan's temper would probably get worse and worse. She was happy because Su Qing had no airs at all and accepted Shen Xuan for no reason, which made her feel relieved.

The Su family is a famous large family in China, but all large families have various rules and regulations. Shen Wei has always been worried that the Su family will dislike Shen Xuan for being an illegitimate child, so she is unwilling to come to Yanjing. But in fact, Su Qing is like all mothers and grandmothers in the world, and her feelings for her granddaughter are sincere and genuine.

This is also because Shen Wei does not understand Su Qing. In Su Qing's eyes, Shen Xuan is a little Fang Zhicheng, and she wants to compensate Shen Xuan for all the lost maternal love, so she has such an abnormal behavior.

After lunch, Shen Xuan and Su Qing got along well. She would occasionally whisper in the prime minister's ear, making Su Qing laugh. Su Qing smiled and asked Shen Wei, "Le Le, you just said you want to sleep with me tonight, is that okay?"

"Of course!" Shen Wei was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "But Lele doesn't sleep well at all, and I'm afraid she'll make trouble at night, causing you to not rest well and affecting your work."

Su Qing waved her hand and said calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay even if I don't sleep all night. I often stay up late and am used to not sleeping all night."

Seeing Su Qing say this, Shen Wei could only smile and say, "Okay, I'll trouble you tonight."

After getting Shen Wei's approval, Su Qing took Shen Xuan into the back room.

Shen Wei sighed and said, "Isn't your mother too spoiling her child? I originally thought that my father doted on Shen Xuan a lot, but now it seems that he is far inferior to your mother."

Fang Zhicheng smiled and said, "Just turn a blind eye. Be careful that my mother hears it. Then you can't blame me."

Shen Wei stuck out her tongue and said fiercely, "Why? Can she eat me? I am Shen Wei's mother and I have the right to educate Shen Xuan."

Qin Yuming chuckled and said, "I've heard that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is difficult because of the child's education. It's only been a short time, but conflicts have already arisen."

Shen Wei was stunned for a moment, but finally sighed. If it was anyone else, Shen Wei would have shown disdain, but her mother-in-law was the only female vice prime minister of the Republic. She felt weak the first time she saw her.

Fang Zhicheng stared at Shen Wei for a long time, squeezed her palm, and smiled: "You are so nervous about Shen Xuan because of your maternal instinct. You want to protect her, but please believe me, my mother will not hurt Shen Xuan. Although she seems to dote on Shen Xuan, she is also a rational person and knows how to do better for Shen Xuan."

Shen Wei curled her lips, snorted, and said, "I don't think so."

Qin Yuming smiled and changed the subject, saying, "Zhicheng, we want to hold a charity party this time. Have you thought of a theme? Once the theme is determined, we can start preparations at any time. It will probably be completed within a week."
