Since Zhao Yuanyuan and her sister-in-law had returned home, Zhao Shan and Wang were naturally happy and busied themselves preparing a meal.

Zhao Jun was pulled back into the house by his wife, who then showered him with concern and care.

Qiu Dayu chuckled and walked towards Zhao Yuanyuan, whose eyes were filled with tears.

"Yuanyuan, are you unhappy to see me? Why are you crying?"

Zhao Yuanyuan pursed her lips, forgetting most of the thousands of words in her mind.

Qiu Yumei and Zhao San, a married couple, would not want to go home unless it was the Chinese New Year.

The reason, of course, is their sister-in-law.

Fortunately, Zhao's wife is no longer like before, always looking for trouble with Qiu Yumei. Instead, she tries to please her whenever they meet.

As for why, when people have money, there will always be people trying to curry favor with them.

However, Qiu Yumei never got too close to her sister-in-law, avoiding her whenever possible.

Zhao San was only close to his elder brother, and only exchanged polite greetings with his sister-in-law.

Mrs. Xu was finally able to welcome the two back. Upon seeing them, her unpleasant mood of the past few days brightened up.

Qiu Yumei missed her daughter terribly because she hadn't seen her for several days.

After meeting her daughter, she discovered that Ling Chuyi was nowhere to be found. Upon asking, she learned that Ling Qi had taken her away.

She took her daughter from her mother-in-law and was about to cuddle her when her husband snatched her away.

"Lan'er, do you miss your father?"

In the next room, Zhao An and Zhao Yang, who had been forgotten, could only continue to be 'neglected' by their parents.

After Zhao San finished speaking, he kissed his daughter's little face, which drew a look of disgust from Qiu Yumei.

"Look at the stubble on your face, it's going to hurt Lan'er."

She snatched her daughter back from Zhao San's hands and said...

"You should air out all the blankets in the house. I'm going to my second brother's house."

Their home was quite simple; the yard had already been kept spotless by the eldest uncle, so there wasn't much else to tidy up.

Qiu Yumei and Zhao San brought enough New Year's goods this time they went home.

They also brought a lot of minced meat to make dumplings for tomorrow morning; their family runs a wonton shop.

Furthermore, there's also the act of posting Spring Festival couplets, etc.

Zhao San and his uncle did these things.

Therefore, Qiu Yumei doesn't need to do anything.

"You just got back and you're already visiting other people's homes? Why didn't you leave Lan'er here?" Zhao San frowned, took out the quilts from the house, and began to air them out one by one.

The Qiu family has already taken care of most of the necessary arrangements.

Qiu Dafu and Qiu Dazhi were busy with all the household chores, while Qiu Yan and her two sisters had some free time and were busy with their own things.

Jiang Liu only needed to look after her son.

From time to time, she would also help take care of Ling Chuyi.

Before becoming a mother, she only felt that children were adorable, but since becoming a mother, her heart has softened, and she can't bear to see her children suffer.

After Qiu Yumei arrived at the Qiu family home, Qiu Yan and the others were also there.

After they met and exchanged greetings, Qiu Yan, along with her younger siblings and Gu Xiaoran, hung up large red lanterns outside the courtyard.

Qiu Dafu and Qiu Dazhi were in charge of posting the Spring Festival couplets. It was their first time working together, but they worked surprisingly well.

Qiu Yumei didn't disturb her family members' busy work; she just sat and chatted with her second sister-in-law.

She went to see her little nephew first.

Little A-Jing was sleeping soundly in the cradle.

She wanted to see Ling Chuyi again. After raising her for a year, she was always worried that Ling Qi, a grown man, wouldn't be able to take care of the child.

However, the child was taken somewhere for a walk by his father.

Zhao Ruolan was held obediently in Jiang Liu's arms.

Perhaps it was because her daughter, A-Jing, was still so young, but Jiang Liu felt that the little girl was quite heavy in her arms.

"Lan'er is getting cuter and cuter. Yu Mei has some free time these days, so she brings Lan'er to visit her parents' home more often. Our Lan'er likes her second aunt, doesn't she?"
