An Qingbai went over to check on the two dogs.

The two dogs seemed to sense it and turned their backs to him.

An Qingbai shook his head and smiled, then went upstairs to tell his wife.

"Honey, they're still angry."

I could tell they were looking at me, so they turned their backs right up to me.

"Haha, let me go down and coax them."

I won a really delicious treat that even dogs can eat.

Crispy chicken wraps—they simply can't resist this temptation.

So, does that mean we humans can eat them too?

"Yes, that's how it is according to the instructions."

"Let's try it when we have time."

I'll take the two little ones to see their parents in a little while and leave them with them.

Shall we go take a look at the house Grandpa left behind?

"Okay, let's go eat at Lao Mo's for lunch."

"Who is Lao Mo?"

"Old Mo is a Western restaurant, I'll take you to try it."

"Okay, I heard that you need to use a knife and fork when eating Western food. Will you be able to get used to it?"

"It won't be difficult once you master the skills; I'll teach you later."

"Okay, let's change our clothes now."

An Qingbai took his wife's clothes and helped her change, then changed himself as well.

The two little ones woke up.

The couple changed the clothes of the two little ones.

The family of four washed up together.

Zhuang Zhimeng had her lover lead the two little ones downstairs, while she went down first to see the two dogs.

Upon hearing her voice, Maoqiu and Maoxian simply turned their faces towards the wall.

Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and took out a chicken roll, placing it under the two dogs' noses.

The two dogs opened their eyes the moment they smelled the aroma and started circling around their owner.

Zhuang Zhimeng patted the two dogs before distributing the chicken rolls to them.

"Alright, stop being angry. You're not allowed to stay angry after you've eaten something delicious."

Zhuang Zhimeng was in a good mood and fed each of the two dogs an extra one.

The two dogs didn't seem angry at all after they finished eating.

Zhuang Zhimeng washed her hands and sat down to eat.

After dinner, the family of four drove to the steel factory's residential compound.

When I got home, I found that my parents were already there.

What time did you arrive yesterday?

Zhuang Zhimeng hugged her mother before answering.

I arrived at my second uncle's house around 10 p.m.

"Mom, are you and Dad both off today?"

"Yes, we're taking a day off today."

Fatty and Nao Nao are already playing with their grandpa inside the house.

Zhuang Zhimeng pointed to the two little ones.

“These two will stay at our house today. Ah-Bo and I will go and see the house that Grandpa left behind.”

"Okay, you guys go ahead. Fatty and Nao Nao are left to your dad and me."

The couple saw that the two little ones weren't paying attention to them, so they left.

Zhuang Xingzhou came out of the house carrying his two grandsons.

"Where are Ya Ya and Xiao Bai?"

"They're gone."

Zhuang Xingzhou teases Pangpang and Naonao.

"Your parents went to play by themselves and didn't take you two with them. Aren't you sad?"

Fatty shook his head.

“We’re used to it; they always go out and play by themselves.”

Nao Nao raised her little hand.

“I know, Mom said they’re going to look at houses.”

Zhuang Xingzhou laughed.

"You guys are pretty amazing, you already know so much?"

Hao Caiyun sat on the sofa and picked up Pangpang.

"That's true. These two little ones are quite smart. They know a lot at only two years old."

"You've gained quite a bit of weight; you're so heavy to hold."

The chubby guy laughed heartily.

"Giggle, Grandma, I'm itchy."

Hao Caiyun smiled and patted her grandson.

Zhuang Xingzhou held Nao Nao and asked his wife.

"Are Zhiwu and the others coming back for Chinese New Year this year?"

"He should be coming back. Zhiwu said he has already taken his annual leave."

Are all the eldest brother, second sister, and youngest sister planning to come back for the Lunar New Year this year?

It's always the same family, including Cha Zhiwu.

Ya Ya came back this year, so how could Zhi Wu not come back?

"Yeah, that's true. This year's Chinese New Year will probably be the most complete one our family has ever had."

An Qingbai drove his wife to the courtyard house left by his grandfather.

Zhuang Zhimeng watched from outside and exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow, it's actually the Prince's Mansion. In the past, this would have been a very wealthy family."

And this house doesn't look uninhabited; it's not dirty or messy at all outside.

An Qingbai took out the key.

"We'll find out once we go inside."

An Qingbai was holding his wife's hand, just about to go inside, when someone came out.

"May I ask who An Shoushan is to you?"

Zhuang Zhimeng looked at her lover.

An Qingbai, fearing for the man's safety, pulled his wife back while he stood in front.

“An Shoushan is my grandfather.”

An Liushou immediately bowed in greeting.

“I am the master’s attendant, and I am here to await his descendants to take over this house.”

"I've waited for over twenty years, what proof do you have?"

An Qingbai took out his grandfather's handwritten letter.

"This is a letter left by my grandfather, which is placed together with the house deed."

"Are you An Liushou?"

“Yes, this name was given to me by the head of the family, who hoped that I could stay and guard his house.”

An Qingbai handed the letter to An Liushou.

"We haven't seen this letter, you can read it yourself."

Grandpa specifically designated it for An Liushou, but we didn't know who it was, so we never touched it.

An Liushou tore off the wax seal on the letter and took it out.

Tears welled up in my eyes immediately after reading the letter.

"I can leave now. This house is yours to keep."

The head of the household has already arranged my living quarters; I'm going now.

An Liushou handed his key to An Qingbai.

"Bye now."
