Bai Wei and Lu Siting got up early in the morning on the second day of the Chinese New Year. After having breakfast, they cleaned up the house, took the things they had prepared yesterday, and took their children back to visit her mother's home.

The Bai family was also very busy today. Knowing that their daughter and son-in-law would come back with the children today, the old couple had already prepared delicious food and drinks. Bai Yaotian also took out his own collection of fine wine.

Bai Yaotian hasn't had a drink with his son-in-law for a long time and he misses him a little.

Shen Juan said, "When Xiao Lu comes later, you should drink less with him. He is driving, so you can't drink too much."

Bai Yaotian usually has to teach students and cannot drink alcohol, so he likes to have a few more drinks with others during festivals.

He poured some wine into a small glass, took a sip secretly, and said happily: "It doesn't matter if they drink too much. Didn't you clean up the room yesterday? If Xiao Lu drinks too much, let them stay here tonight and go back tomorrow. Anyway, it's New Year's Day and everyone has nothing to do."

That's true. Chen Juan originally wanted them to stay at home for one night. Bai Wei only came back a few times a year. It was not easy for her to go back to her parents' home, so she had to stay for a day or two before leaving.

Anyway, jewelry stores are closed during this period, and everyone is staying at home to enjoy a good year.

At 10:30 in the morning, Bai Wei and Lu Siting arrived. Lu Siting and Bai Wei each held a child and sent the three of them upstairs. Lu Siting then went downstairs to move things.

When Bai Yaotian saw this, he went downstairs to help.

This was the first time that Lu Tianrui and Lu Yahui came to their grandparents' house, but they were not unfamiliar with them and had a lot of fun at home.

The room was warm. Bai Yaotian and Lu Siting were drinking. Huang Yueya and Bai Wei were holding the children. After dinner, they took them into the house.

Bai Wei usually lets the two children take a one or two hour nap, and avoid sleeping in the afternoon if possible. This way, the two children will wake up at most once at night, and only need to be fed once, and they won’t be too noisy.

The child fell asleep, and the mother and daughter sat aside and chatted in a low voice.

In the afternoon, Bai Yaotian drank too much and was helped back to the room by Lu Siting. He also drank a lot. Although he did not fall asleep immediately, he could not drive the car.

Finally they decided to stay at Bai's house for one night and go back the next day.

During dinner, Bai Yaotian didn't drink much. His daughter had finally come back with her grandson. Shen Juan and Bai Yaotian loved him so much that they even held one in their arms while eating.

At the same time, the two little babies received thick red envelopes.

They stayed at her mother's house for a day and delivered a lot of things, but when they left, Shen Juan and Bai Yaotian worked hard to load things into the car for them.

Homemade sausages, smoked chicken, pickles, steamed buns, as well as boxes of fruit and gift boxes sent by others during the Chinese New Year, as long as Shen Juan thought they might like to eat them, she would take them all.

Lu Siting tried to stop one but couldn't stop the other, not to mention he was holding a child in his arms. In the end, the entire trunk was almost full.

"Mom and Dad, you should go back soon. It's cold." Bai Wei shouted through the window while sitting in the car.

Shen Juan waved her hand and said, "You guys should go back soon, be careful not to catch a cold!"

Bai Wei looked in the rearview mirror and saw her parents' figures getting smaller and smaller until they could no longer be seen.

When they get home, they first settle the children down, and then deal with the things in the trunk that their parents brought for them.

Since Bai Wei had nothing to do at home today, she pushed her two babies in a stroller and went out to visit friends.

People living in the compound have been neighbors for many years, and there is not much to entertain them, so during the Chinese New Year, those families who live close to each other or who get along well with each other privately will gather together, sit down, eat melon seeds and chat.

Bai Wei had nothing to do, so she went to Sister Wei's house.

She has many children in her family, and they play well with each other, so many people go to her house to chat.

This was the first time that Bai Wei brought her child to someone else's home. During the confinement period, many people gave her eggs, but Bai Wei couldn't get out of bed, so Huang Yueya and Lu Siting were the ones who received them.

It was the first time for most people to see Bai Wei’s children.

The two little ones are fair and tender, with big eyes. They inherited Bai Wei's double eyelids. They are pretty and cute, like little lucky dolls. Many people like them when they see them.

"Oh, Captain Lu's child is so pretty."

"Yes, he is wearing a red cotton-padded jacket. He looks so festive, just like the little lucky doll on the New Year paper."

"Tsk, tsk, so cute, it must be more than three months old, right?"

"If you count the time, it's been more than three months."

Bai Wei sat down nearby, and the person next to her handed her a handful of melon seeds, which she took.

There were many children nearby, the youngest of whom was only about two or three years old. He could not walk steadily and followed his five or six-year-old brothers and sisters, staggering along.

It's winter, and both adults and children are wearing warm clothes, so they are not afraid of getting hurt from falling.

Hearing the aunties and uncles around praising other children, this group of children became very curious about the baby in the stroller and stretched their heads to take a look.

Lu Tianrui and Lu Yahui came out after eating a full meal. They were very energetic. They were not afraid of strangers when they saw so many brothers and sisters. When someone reached out to touch their little hands, they opened their hands and held them.

The white and tender little hands held their brother and sister's hands, and the two children giggled.

This child inherited all the advantages of Bai Wei and Lu Siting, and can be said to be the best-looking child in the compound.

"Mom, this little sister smiled at me, she is so pretty!"

"This little brother is also good-looking. He has long black eyelashes and black eyes. He will definitely be a handsome boy when he grows up!"

A group of children aged five to ten surrounded the two babies. Their eyes were full of curiosity, but each of them was very polite. They did not touch their younger siblings at will, but only pulled their hands. Occasionally, someone would touch their little faces, but with very little force.

After hearing what the children said, someone smiled and said, "Sister Bai and Captain Lu are a handsome couple. They are one of the best-looking in our compound. Their children are also good-looking. When they grow up, I wonder how many people they will charm."

Bai Wei said modestly: "The child is still young, and can't see anything."

The group chatted and laughed, and soon the topic turned to other things.

The wives of soldiers living in the military compound hear more gossip than just the one surrounding them, ranging from trivial matters in someone’s hometown village to big things like the country’s current intention to vigorously support private enterprises.

After closing the gate, they sat together in groups of three or four and chatted about all sorts of things. Once they left the gate, no one would talk nonsense.

Bai Wei sat there for the whole afternoon and listened to a lot of gossip. Lu Tianrui and Lu Yahui seemed sleepy and fell asleep in the cradle. Bai Wei pushed the two children into the house to prevent them from getting cold.
