CHAPTER 175: CHAPTER 175: MARITAL RELATIONSHIPS ALL START FROM BEING GOOD FRIENDS

The two kids put down their pens and happily accepted the red envelopes handed over by Munni, thanking her repeatedly and saying, "Thank you, Aunt Munni. Happy Spring Festival to you. May you have good health and soon have a little baby with Uncle."

Munni couldn’t help but chuckle and patted their heads. "You two sure have sweet tongues."

"Hehe." They grinned at her.

Xinxin reached out and opened the first drawer on the right side of the desk, taking out a steel pen and handing it to Munni.

Munni lowered her eyes, staring at the pen Xinxin handed her, slightly dazed. "Why is this pen with you?"

When Xu Yisen was a child and made mistakes, he was often punished by Bai Wan Yun to copy texts, which led to him developing beautiful handwriting.

When Xu Yisen graduated from university, she specially ordered a custom pen at a high cost for him, with his initials XYS engraved on it.

Xinxin playfully stuck out her tongue and explained, "Uncle treasures this pen. Last time, Ruirui annoyed him for a long time before he reluctantly agreed to lend it to Ruirui. But later, Uncle seemed to have something urgent, took a call, rushed off, and forgot the pen here."

She accepted the pen and said softly, "Thank you for keeping the pen safe for Uncle. I’ll keep it for him for now."

Ruirui grinned at Munni, "Aunt Munni, please tell Uncle I really like this pen too. If he doesn’t want it, he can give it to me."

Munni wondered if she’d misheard, but she felt a hint of playful teasing in Ruirui’s voice.

"Alright, I’ll convey your message to him."

Munni spent some more time practicing writing with the kids in the study, read them storybooks, and later took them to the kitchen to bake cookies together.

Thanks to Xinxin and Ruirui, her day was very pleasant.

Before leaving, Bai Renyuan glanced at his two grandsons who were reluctantly saying goodbye to Munni and teased, "Munni sure is popular with the kids. How about you and Yisen work hard to have one this year?"

During the festival, Munni couldn’t well remind Bai Renyuan that she and Xu Yisen were already divorced, as the word "divorce" felt a bit inauspicious.

She could only helplessly smile and say, "Please don’t joke about me."

However, Bai Wan Yun, upon hearing Bai Renyuan’s words, suddenly became excited and said to Munni with a grin, "I think your uncle’s suggestion is good. Why don’t you and Yisen have one this year?"

Munni: "...!"

After they left Bai Renyuan’s house, Bai Wan Yun kept talking to Munni about having grandchildren on the way home.

Enthusiastically, Bai Wan Yun even took out her phone immediately, called a friend, and asked her to order some health supplements like donkey-hide gelatin, bird’s nest, ginseng, angelica, and fish glue.

Munni sat beside her feeling inexplicably anxious, unsure what to do with Bai Wan Yun’s enthusiasm.

After Bai Wan Yun hung up the call, Munni couldn’t help but speak up with a conflicted expression, "Mom, Yisen and I are good friends right now, and that’s great."

She subtly reminded Bai Wan Yun that she and Xu Yisen were no longer married, so they couldn’t have children.

Yet Bai Wan Yun seemed oblivious to the underlying message and nodded with a smile, "Spousal relationships often start from being good friends; it’s doable."

Munni: "...!"

When they returned home, one of Bai Wan Yun’s friends happened to visit, giving Munni a chance to slip back to her room.

As she reached the third floor and was about to pass Xu Yisen’s room, she saw Xu Yisen coming out of the room.
