Tang Xiaoyu smiled secretly, "At first, when my father-in-law knew I had a daughter, he wasn't unhappy, but he wasn't very happy either. But as my daughter grew up, her features became more and more like my mother-in-law, and he liked Xiao Lingdang more and more. As soon as he got off work, he would go home to see the child. I heard that he even secretly made a will, leaving many things to Xiao Lingdang."

Liu Meilan raised her eyebrows, "This is to make up for the regrets of the past!"

"Yes!" Tang Xiaoyu replied, "It's precisely because my father-in-law likes it and Ye Qiang likes it, that those who made sarcastic remarks have become silent."

Liu Meilan chuckled, "Anyway, this is the trend here. They may not dislike girls, but they all hope to have boys in the family. However, our women are becoming more and more powerful, participating in all walks of life and becoming outstanding talents."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded. "We women have to fight for our own status, not be given by others. Becoming stronger is the hard truth, and everything else is just empty talk. In the future, I will train Xiao Lingdang to be a self-reliant child."

"Yes!" Liu Meilan reached out and poked Xiao Lingdang's face, thinking that if she could give Xiao Lingdang some help, not only would she be able to grow up healthily, but she would also be smarter.

"Are you free this afternoon?" Tang Xiaoyu asked.

"Is there something wrong?" Liu Meilan asked with a raised eyebrow and a smile.

Tang Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Tonight, let's go try on the dress. You are my bridesmaid and one of the most important people in my life."

"Okay, I'll go with you." Liu Meilan agreed. She couldn't be present at the previous engagement because she was at sea, but now that they were getting married, she had to show up.

After talking about Tang Xiaoyu, Tang Xiaoyu began to ask Liu Meilan, "When will Fu Chen return to Beijing?"

"The 29th day of the twelfth lunar month." Liu Meilan replied, "What's wrong?"

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled, "I got some good things at home, I'll give you some. Keep them for you to take with you to Beijing to pay New Year's greetings."

"Xiao Yu, how do you know I'm going to Beijing?" Liu Meilan asked in surprise.

Tang Xiaoyu pursed her lips and chuckled, "Fu Chen came over before the New Year to give your family a holiday gift. After the New Year, you have to go and pay New Year's greetings. Even if not for yourself, but for your third brother."

Liu Meilan stretched out her hand and pinched Tang Xiaoyu's fair and delicate arm. "You are right. I will take my third brother to visit the Fu family in Beijing on the third day after the Chinese New Year. My third brother has passed the written test for the Central Selection and Transfer Students and will have an interview on February 16. I will go there in advance to familiarize myself with the environment and ask for some advice from the people in the Fu family."

Tang Xiaoyu sighed, "You really took great pains for your third brother."

"He's my third brother, of course I have to worry about him. The better my third brother is, the better it will be for our whole family." Liu Meilan chuckled. She didn't care about small things, but she was absolutely unambiguous about big things.

Xiao Lingdang cried. Tang Xiaoyu unbuttoned his clothes and fed Xiao Lingdang in front of Liu Meilan.

Liu Meilan quickly turned her head away, looking quite embarrassed.

Tang Xiaoyu pulled the scarf over to cover herself, "Alright, we're all women, and you're still embarrassed. Aren't you usually very bold?"

"Isn't that just talk?" Liu Meilan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "To be honest, you've taken really good care of little Bell."

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled, "This is my child, who I carried for ten months and raised with my own breasts. Of course I put my heart and soul into it. I was so busy chatting that I forgot to tell you. I've been sorting out the Ye family's assets recently and found that they cover a wide range. When your third brother arrives in the area, if he wants to invest, I will try my best to select suitable projects and bring them over."

Liu Meilan was stunned. "This way...you might feel guilty about it! It's not necessary!"

"Didn't you hear me clearly? How can you lose money if you find the right project? There are markets anyway. In the future, I think foreign trade is a good idea." Tang Xiaoyu said with a smile, "The only thing I'm worried about is the transportation problem. The factory has to be built near a dock or a train station. In short, not only will I let my family's company invest, I also know a bunch of people. As long as the investment environment and expected return on investment are better than here, there will be people willing to invest."

Liu Meilan was moved and said, "Thank you, Xiaoyu."

"You're welcome! This is what I should do." Tang Xiaoyu said angrily, "You know me, I like to organize things. When the time comes, I will hold an investment promotion meeting based on the local conditions of your third brother. Don't worry, I can arrange it."

Tang Xiaoyu has gained so much from Liu Meilan. These are different from what Ye Qiang gave her, and Tang Xiaoyu cherishes them especially.

After lunch, the four of them went to try on dresses.

Tang Xiaoyu took a breath and said, "Tighten it a little more, make my waist thinner."

Liu Meilan grinned and said, "Actually, your waist isn't that thick, there's no need to torture yourself."

Ye Qiang quickly agreed, "Yes, you are good this way, plump, I like it. Don't worry about what others think."

Tang Xiaoyu rolled his eyes, "If I became a fat man, you would be annoyed when you see me."

"Am I such a superficial person?" Ye Qiang retorted, refusing to admit that he judged people by their appearance. He liked Tang Xiaoyu as a person.

Liu Meilan comforted her. She knew that women would be anxious after giving birth. It was due to both psychological reasons and the changes in progesterone in the body. "Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable. After your baby is weaned at six months old, ask Sister Miao Xiang to prescribe some herbs for you to nourish your body. Just keep exercising every day, practice yoga, and you won't gain weight. You can lose weight later."

"Really?" Tang Xiaoyu asked in surprise, "I'm really afraid of getting fatter and fatter. I have a lot of nice clothes in my closet, but if I get fatter, I won't be able to wear them anymore."

Liu Meilan nodded, "Really, don't worry."

After being persuaded by Liu Meilan and Ye Qiang, Tang Xiaoyu felt a little better and no longer allowed the staff of the dress shop to make her waist too thin.

Ye Qiang kept his eyes on Tang Xiaoyu, but he kept complaining, "Women, why do you have to be so beautiful? Just be virtuous and kind, I don't mind."

Fu Chen has always been steady, but he couldn't help rolling his eyes at this time, "You say one thing and mean another. Didn't you pursue Tang Xiaoyu because you thought she was pretty?"

"How could that be? I obviously like Tang Xiaoyu's personality more." Ye Qiang explained, "I feel relaxed and happy when I am with Xiaoyu. As soon as I get off work, I want to go home. I have a wife and children and a warm bed. I am so happy! The only regret is that my mother passed away early and she didn't know how happy I am now."

Fu Chen raised his eyebrows, "I hope you can stay the same as always. It's not easy to find a confidant in one's life. No matter how good the women outside are, they can enjoy happiness with you, but they can never suffer with you. But Xiaoyu, whether you are rich or bankrupt, she will follow you. You can trust each other and will not sleep in the same bed with different dreams."

"Of course." Ye Qiang agreed.

Fu Chen suggested, "However, I think that although there is a bit of a happy-enemy atmosphere between you and Xiaoyu, I think you should praise Xiaoyu more in private. In this way, she will not be so anxious."

"I didn't realize, Fu Chen, that you have such deep feelings even though you're not married yet." Ye Qiang said in surprise, looking Fu Chen up and down. He really didn't expect that Fu Chen, who was always serious and silent, actually had a soft side.
