On the night of New Year's Eve, Wang Cuimei invited everyone to dinner.

At this time, Jiang Li was already two and a half months pregnant. The elders in the family all knew the news and were naturally very happy.

She is still in the early stages of her pregnancy and her belly still looks flat.

Jiang Li came to her mother-in-law's house with gifts as usual, but found that there were a lot of people in the house today.

Jiang Li stood at the door and didn't go in. Shen Changan patted her shoulder gently and told her in a low voice.

"These are my relatives. They were abroad before, but when they heard about my marriage, they came back specially for the Spring Festival."

Jiang Li nodded, and felt relieved immediately.

Sure enough, as soon as Jiang Li entered the door, her grandmother pulled her aside.

"Xiao Li, these are all my children. Today I have the opportunity to introduce them to you."

“This is the second son, Shen Huanan. He usually lives abroad and rarely comes back once every few years. This is his daughter…”

Grandma introduced patiently and Jiang Li listened attentively.

There are too many relatives in Shen Changan's family, and some of their names are similar, so he got a little confused as he listened.

Jiang Li greeted everyone with a smile, then sat quietly aside.

After grandma finished explaining the details, everyone started taking out red envelopes from their pockets to give to her and her two children.

Jiang Li was completely stunned holding the heavy red envelope in his hand.

How can adults also receive red envelopes? Is this a foreign tradition?

Jiang Li thought quietly in her heart, Shen Changan saw through her thoughts and explained with a smile.

"When a new bride comes home, there must be a red envelope. If you wait until the next time, there will be no more."

"So that's how it is."

After all, it was Jiang Li's first time to be someone else's wife, so it was normal that she didn't understand these rules.

Jiang Li accepted the red envelope with confidence, feeling a little happy in his heart.

Jiang Li was pulled by his grandmother to chat with everyone for a while, and soon it was time to eat the New Year's Eve dinner.

There were too many people this time, and one table couldn't accommodate them all, so we opened two tables in total.

One of the tables is the main table, where only the elders in the family can sit.

Grandma took Jiang Li's hand and insisted that she sit next to her.

Shen Changan originally planned to take Jiang Li to sit at another table, but now he had no choice but to turn around and come over to accompany him.

"Go, go, go, just sit over there. Xiao Li, it's enough for me to accompany you."

Just as Shen Changan was about to sit down, he started to chase people away.

"Xiao Li needs me to take care of her when she eats. I'm always there for her."

As soon as Shen Changan finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from the other table.

"Oh my! Is this something my cold-faced, heartless, veteran cadre cousin would say?"

"Cousin, you really dote on your sister-in-law!"

"Sister-in-law, you are so happy. I am a little envious of you!"

Shen Changan's brothers and sisters kept teasing him.

Shen Changan was not angry, but responded generously with a smile.

"You are still young, you will understand once you get married."

In front of the elders, Shen Changan picked up some food for Jiang Li as if no one was around.

Not only Shen Changan, but even grandma dotes on Jiang Li.

Since Jiang Li married Shen Changan, she felt like she was wrapped in honey, and she lived happily every day.

Everyone enjoyed the meal very much. After the meal, the men started drinking and the women gathered together to chat and drink tea.

Today is New Year's Eve, and the Shen family has the tradition of staying up all night.

"You absolutely cannot stay up late while you're pregnant."

"But there's only one day like this in a year. Even if I'm pregnant, staying up all night won't be a big deal, right?"

Jiang Li lowered his voice and said weakly, Shen Changan's attitude was very firm.

"I said no and it means no!"

"All right……"

Shen Changan had already started to glare at her, how could Jiang Li dare to disobey?

Of course she knew that staying up late while pregnant was not good, she just wanted to be willful for once.

Jiang Li originally wanted to accompany him, but was finally persuaded by Shen Changan to return to the room.

Jiang Li lay down in the room early, and Shen Changan did not go downstairs to stay up to celebrate the New Year, but sat by the bed to accompany her.

Jiang Li has not slept well every night since she became pregnant.

Therefore, before she went to bed every day, Shen Changan would bring hot water for her to soak her feet and gently massage her acupuncture points.

Jiang Li always feels warm all over after soaking his feet.

Shen Changan pressed her again, and Jiang Li felt her whole body soften.

After Shen Changan finished the process, he could hear the sound of even breathing.

Jiang Li fell asleep comfortably, even his frown relaxed.

Shen Changan closed the window tightly and drew the thick curtains.

In this way, the sounds from outside could not be heard, and the room became pitch black, which was more suitable for Jiang Li to fall into a deep sleep.

Shen Changan walked out quietly, and did not forget to close the door when he left.

Shen Changan stayed up all night with the others, taking care of every little emotion of Jiang Yun and Jiang Yi.

Even if Jiang Li goes to rest, they are still his favorite brothers and sisters.

Especially Jiang Yi, Shen Changan used to be his teacher, and he admired his perseverance at that time.

Now that Jiang Yi has become his brother-in-law, Shen Changan knows more about him than before, and naturally cares for him more.

12 o'clock arrives and the New Year's bell rings.

Wang Cuimei lit a string of firecrackers, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard from afar.

The quiet night now became extremely lively, and someone in the distance started setting off fireworks.

Shen Changan hugged Jiang Yi's neck and looked at the fireworks in the distance with him.

After staying up all night to celebrate the New Year, Shen Changan personally sent Jiang Li's family back home.

After washing up, Shen Changan returned to the room quietly.

Jiang Li was still in the same position as when he left, sleeping very soundly.

Shen Changan got into the bed, and when his body was much warmer, he reached out and hugged Jiang Li.

When his hands were completely warm, Shen Changan placed his hands on Jiang Li's still very flat belly.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly and he murmured softly.

"Am I going to be a father again? My little Li is really fertile!"

Shen Changan closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

The next few days were very lively at Shen Changan’s house.

These relatives eat at Shen Changan's house during the day and sleep at grandma's house at night.

Grandma’s favorite thing to do was to take care of her great-grandchildren. Now a bunch of grandchildren surround her, and the old lady is so happy every day that she can’t stop smiling.

Shen Changan's relatives came back from abroad and were a little tight on time.

They stayed until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and even went back one after another without even staying for the Lantern Festival.

Grandma stands at the door every day, watching her children and grandchildren leave one by one.

Until everyone had left, she sighed heavily, and in an instant she seemed to have aged a lot.

"Grandma Zeng, don't be sad!"

"Grandma Zeng, you still have us!"

The two little guys ran over, one of them hugged one of Grandma T's legs, and immediately made her smile from ear to ear.
