The Western restaurant jointly owned by Kong Wanwan and Shen Xiaobei was still under renovation when the Spring Festival of 1980 came.

Shen Xiaobei has been pregnant for more than seven months and her belly is very big. She basically does not go out unless there is something important, so she and the children cannot go to Duan Xichuan's place during the Spring Festival, so they stay in the courtyard to celebrate the New Year.

Duan Donglin and Gao Hongmian were worried about her and the child, so they stayed in Beijing together.

After the New Year, Shen Xiaobei hired another nanny, a rural woman from a neighboring province who had come to Beijing with her husband to work.

He is in his thirties, his surname is Hong, he looks honest and works hard, and most importantly, he likes children.

Shen Xiaobei and Gao Hongmian called her Sister Hong.

Aunt Zhao took Sister Hong to familiarize herself with the daily life of the courtyard for a few days. Seeing that she was almost able to adapt, Shen Xiaobei felt much more at ease.

There is no need to worry about being overwhelmed by the time the baby is unloaded because there are too many children and everyone is too busy to handle it.

In March, Shen Xiaobei received good news from Duan Xichuan who called from the army.

He was promoted to deputy head of the group.

Her husband only gets a promotion once every three years. Shen Xiaobei is proud of him, but also feels that he works very hard and it is not easy for him.

Although he always spoke lightly to her every time he went on a mission, Shen Xiaobei knew that he did it just to prevent her from worrying.

God knows how many times he had been in danger of his life in places unknown to her?

Shen Xiaobei's only wish for him is that he can be safe and sound every day.

This is probably the simplest voice of all military wives in the world.

In early April, the western restaurant jointly owned by Shen Xiaobei and Kong Wanwan opened for trial operation. The restaurant was named Wanxin Pavilion Western Restaurant.

This name was picked up by Fan Shixian casually.

Unexpectedly, Kong Wanwan liked it very much when she heard it, and agreed immediately, so Shen Xiaobei had to agree with a smile.

She was about to give birth, and the trial operation day did not pass.

However, she had taken great pains to plan in advance all the ideas on how to offer discounts and rewards to customers during the trial operation, as well as the entire operation of the kitchen and front hall.

In the evening, Kong Wanwan called her and said that business was booming that day, and she felt relieved to hear that.

On the third day of the trial operation of Wanxin Pavilion Western Restaurant, Shen Xiaobei was hospitalized to give birth.

Duan Xichuan rushed back from the army.

As they wished, she successfully gave birth to a pair of beautiful and lovely twin daughters who looked very much like their mother.

A son and a daughter, twice as many.

She was so envious of her college classmates and friends who came to the hospital to visit her every day.

Shen Xiaobei happily named his two daughters Tianen and Yueen.

It means that they can live a sweet and happy life.

Because of the experience of raising the twins Shui En and Mu En, Shen Xiaobei was much more relaxed during the birth of the two daughters, including the confinement period.

There is no longer the situation where the baby cannot suck milk and her breasts are swollen and she is suffering.

During the confinement period, she had more free time at home, so she asked her classmates to bring their class notes to her to copy, and she basically did not miss any classes.

After leaving the confinement room, she immediately returned to school.

Because she has a car and her driving skills are very good, she is not inferior to men at all.

It is quick and convenient to drive from the courtyard to the school. Shen Xiaobei can come back every day at noon to eat and breastfeed the two children.

In addition to arranging her studies and life in an orderly manner, her bank account has also been kept full with a steady flow of money every month.

So during the summer vacation, she planned to go to Shenzhen again to buy a house.

Also, let’s take a look at how Yang Qiushi and Chen Simei’s noodle shop is doing?

However, Kong Wanwan had to go back to her hometown in the provincial capital during the summer vacation, so she decided to bring Niu Niu to live in Beijing and study there in the future.

When Shen Xiaobei heard this, he was sincerely happy for Niuniu.

She then decided to wait until the mother and daughter returned before going to Shenzhen.

The night Niu Niu arrived in Beijing, Fan Shixian hosted Shen Xiaobei and everyone in the courtyard for dinner at a big restaurant.

Everyone was seated, and Fan Shixian and Kong Wanwan were warmly inviting everyone to order food. Niu Niu looked around at the people at the table and found that Du Wenli was not there.

Then he timidly asked Kong Wanwan, "Mom, where's Dad? Isn't Dad coming?"

When Kong Wanwan heard Niu Niu's question, her face suddenly became a little embarrassed and unhappy.

Fortunately, Fan Shixian not only didn't mind, but also immediately smiled and said, "Niuniu, your father lives far away from here, and he has to work overtime tonight, so he can't come to dinner with you today."

"But your father said that when he's not busy, he will come to see you!"

"oh."

Niu Niu replied to Fan Shixian with a bit of disappointment, and then remained sullen and silent.

Niu Niu is already seven and a half years old.

Growing up amidst her parents' quarrels, she is more mature than other children of the same age.

Although she doesn't know that her parents are divorced, she may not quite understand what divorce means and what it means.

However, on her first day in Beijing, she did not see her father. Instead, she saw a strange uncle named Fan Shixian, who was so affectionate with her mother.

She immediately started to feel uneasy and guessed that her parents must have had another fight!

Did Dad separate from Mom and no longer want her?

Seeing the little girl's face showing a worry that was seriously inconsistent with her age, Shen Xiaobei, who was sitting diagonally opposite her, couldn't help but feel a pang of heart.

She immediately forced a smile and asked Niuniu warmly, "Niuniu, Auntie and Mommy, would you like to take you and your brothers and sisters to the Beijing Zoo tomorrow?"
