House Dad's Literary Life

Chapter 303 – Take Two Steps

Mo Fei only accepted an interview with a fashion magazine today, so she returned home earlier. However, her aura was very cold, and although she still tried to smile at Yang Huan, Yang Yi, who knew her well, could tell that her inner mood was not high.

However, Yang Yi didn’t inquire about Mo Fei’s situation for the moment because Mo Fei was giving something to Yang Huan.

“Huanhuan, try these high heels and see if they fit. I saw that you only have a pair of white running shoes, so I bought you a pair.” Mo Fei opened the box and took out a pair of beige-colored black edges high heels.

“Wow! Sister-in-law, you bought me something again! Hehe, thank you, but I’ve never worn high heels before, and I’m a little scared just looking at them!” Yang Huan wasn’t polite at all, and she smiled sweetly.

“It’s okay, how can a girl not wear high heels? Give them a try, you’ll get used to it!” Mo Fei smiled slightly and explained to her, “The heels are not too high, about five centimeters, they are entry-level high heels, perfect for you to practice with. Once you get used to them, I’ll take you to choose ones you like.”

Yang Yi had never interfered in Mo Fei’s affairs, but at this moment, he couldn’t help but frown and said, “Mo Fei, you don’t have to buy her new clothes and shoes every day. Her clothes have already filled up a closet, and she doesn’t know how to fold them, making a mess.”

The main problem was the mess, which gave Yang Yi a headache.

“Hehe, my sister-in-law buys things for me, what can you do about it? Who told you not to pay me a salary,” Yang Huan made a face at Yang Yi.

“Didn’t your brother give you money? Are you short of money now?” Upon hearing this, Mo Fei immediately took out her long wallet, took out a stack of hundred-yuan bills inside, and stuffed them into Yang Huan’s hand.

However, at this moment, Yang Huan was embarrassed to take it. She quickly pushed it back and said, “Ah, sister-in-law, I was just joking with my big brother! He gave me pocket money, how can I take your money?”

“It’s okay, your brother is your brother, and this is from your sister-in-law. Take it, buy whatever you like.” Mo Fei pushed it back again. She didn’t know how to handle the relationship between her and her little sister-in-law, so she just use money to attack.

“I really can’t take it, sister-in-law. If my dad knew I took so much money from you, he would definitely kill me!” Yang Huan jumped back, stuck out her tongue, and said embarrassedly.

She didn’t know that, in fact, the clothes that Mo Fei had bought for her these past few days, no, just this pair of high heels today, were worth more than this stack of money!

After all, it was something that Mo Fei bought, how could they be cheap goods from street vendors?

Yang Yi didn’t say anything, smiled, and advised, “Alright, stop arguing. I’ll still give her pocket money, Mo Fei, you can rest assured!”

Mo Fei had to give up, but when she put away the money, she saw the bright and shining eyes of Xixi on the side.

“What’s wrong? Why do you look sad?” Mo Fei blinked her eyes.

The little girl pouted her small mouth and said with some grievances, “Because, because you all have money, but I don’t have any money!”

Xixi has gradually grown up. Although she has never spent money, she also knew the use of money from what she had seen and heard. Originally, she didn’t care too much about money, because her father would buy her whatever she wanted. However, now that she saw that even her little aunt has money, the little girl began to feel unfair.

“Xixi, do you also want money? What do you want money for?” Yang Huan, wearing high heels, tried to walk a few steps awkwardly and asked with a smile.

Mo Fei watched as Yang Huan walked with big strides like a tomboy, and couldn’t bear to watch. She hurriedly went up to hold her hand and teach her: “Slow down, high heels are not walked like this.”

“Don’t always put so much force on this leg, just like having one long leg and one short leg. If you keep putting force on this leg, it will become heavier and heavier…”

“Take two steps! Take two steps! Don’t control it, relax! Walk!”

“At this moment, after thinking hard for a long time, Xixi, who still couldn’t think of what to do with the money, sighed like a little adult: “Oh, I don’t seem to know what to do… but I want it!”

Yang Yi smiled and said, “It’s okay. In the future, Papa will also give you pocket money, and then buy you a piggy bank. When you get the money, put it in. When you think of something to do with the money, it will come in handy!”

“Really?” The little girl looked surprised.

“Really, Papa won’t lie to you!” Yang Yi said softly, “Papa will give you ten yuan of pocket money every day in the future, and you will save more than 3,000 yuan in a year. When Xixi is ten years old, you will also be a rich person!”

Xixi has no concept of quantity, she just thought it was fun and happily jumped around.

Before going to bed at night, the little girl couldn’t forget about the piggy bank. Yang Yi vividly described it, making her forget about the cold reception of her storytelling at kindergarten. With sweet imaginations of the pink piggy bank, she gradually drifted into dreams.

……

After Xixi fell asleep, Yang Huan was playing on the computer in her bedroom, and Yang Yi finally had the time to inquire about Mo Fei’s work.

“Is it because something happened at work that you’re in a bad mood today?” Yang Yi gently massaged Mo Fei’s shoulders, his large hands gently rubbing over her delicate collarbone as he softly asked.

“It’s not about work, it’s a music critic who said in a magazine that the song ‘The Initial Dream’ is teaching people bad things…” Mo Fei confided in Yang Yi with some sadness.

Having a rough understanding of the current situation of “The Initial Dream”, Yang Yi furrowed his brow slightly.

“I think you wrote this song very well! It’s because one has to persist in their dream to become the person they want to be. If one keeps compromising, how can one possibly succeed?” Mo Fei had a righteous outlook and a bit of naivety, she seriously said, “How can they say such things?”

“This situation is similar to the one you faced last time. Your comeback album was also heavily criticized. Could it be that Sister Ling is still suppressing you?” Yang Yi asked

“Xiaojuan said it shouldn’t be, Sister Ling is very supportive of my album now! The company’s people are helping me with this matter,” Mo Fei said, somewhat puzzled.

“Then it’s possible that someone is jealous and trying to smear your reputation!” His judgment was similar to that of Mo Xiaojuan.

Yang Yi kissed her smooth face and comforted her, saying, “You don’t have to take these criticisms to heart. As you said, your agency will handle public relations matters. You just need to focus on making your album. When the quality and achievements of your album are there, no one can say anything about you!”

“Mhm!” Mo Fei nodded earnestly, “I have confidence in you!”

“Haha, you should have confidence in yourself. Your singing is the best in the entertainment industry!” Yang Yi praised.

“You only know how to coax me,” Although Mo Fei was complaining with her mouth, her heart was sweet.

“By the way, let me tell you, remember the one you rejected, Ju Jie? He somehow managed to get a song, and he’s about to release a new single soon!” Mo Fei said to Yang Yi.

“Mhm…” Yang Yi, however, was somewhat absent-minded.

“Although everyone in the company says that he wrote the song himself, I don’t think it’s very likely. He may have made a deal with another songwriter…”

As Mo Fei was speaking, she suddenly cried out “Oh!” and blushed, pulling Yang Yi’s big hand out of her collar, “What are you doing, trying to do something bad again?”

The fire in Yang Yi’s eyes actually stirred her heart, but it wasn’t appropriate! Her face turned red and she scolded, “Your sister is right next room! If there’s a noise, how can I face her tomorrow?”
