"Mom, can we make it into a specimen?"

"Auntie, let's bury it under the tree, so that the fluffy thing can watch over its babies."

"Third Aunt, we want to keep the fluffy cat, is there any way we can do that?"

The children started chattering amongst themselves.

Zhuang Zhimeng and An Qingbai understood.

"How about we make a specimen of the furry thing and put it in the tree hole?"

"Great, now we can see the furry creature more often."

“Okay, my dad (uncle, third uncle, cousin-in-law) and I will think of a way.”

Zhuang Zhimeng felt quite sad looking at the fluffy things in the box.

The fluffy creature has been in our home for nearly ten years, bringing a lot of joy and laughter.

I didn't expect that Maoqiu was also feeling unwell. For the past two days, she has been lying quietly beside the fluffy creature.

Zhuang Zhimeng patted the furball and gave it its favorite treat, and the furball immediately perked up.

Hao Caiyun was delighted.

"Hey, I thought Furry was going to leave with Furry. I haven't eaten or drunk anything for two days."

Zhuang Zhimeng stroked the fluff ball again.

"I guess Maoqiu understands that even though its friend is gone, they're actually very close, despite their frequent fights."

"Yeah, Yaya, you guys should put the fluffy stuff away. It's uncomfortable to look at it all the time."

"Okay, let's put it away for now, and take it out again after we've made it into a specimen in a couple of days."

An Qingbai, holding a knitted ball, asked his mother-in-law.

"By the way, Mom, your sixtieth birthday is in a few days, shouldn't we have a big celebration?"

"Whatever you want, let's all go out for a meal together."

Where would you like to eat?

"How about we go to the Bai family compound? Your grandparents will be back in the next couple of days."

Zhuang Zhimeng teased the fur ball.

"They're finally coming back. Grandpa and Grandma haven't come back for Chinese New Year except for the first year."

They seemed quite happy; they were always smiling whenever I called them.

"Now that they're back, let's go to the Bai family compound."

"OK.

"Hey, weren't you guys planning to open a restaurant in the park? When are you going to open it?"

"The plan is to open in 1990."

"Let's open for business soon, wouldn't it be better if we all went to our own restaurant then?"

"You're absolutely right, we'll try our best to open as soon as possible."

Two days later, Zhuang Zhimeng took out the furry specimen made from specimen number 001.

"Honey, look, it's really good, it feels just like it's alive."

An Qingbai hugged his wife from behind, resting his head on her shoulder.

"It really does look like it's alive. Will the children cry when they see it?"

"It's possible. You won't cry anymore once you get used to it. I feel like crying just looking at it."

"Wife, don't cry, it will break your heart."

"Let's go plant a tree at the clothing store. We need to pick up Grandpa and Grandma later."

"Okay, we'll give the fluffy stuff to the kids when it comes back."

The couple went to a clothing store.

I dug a hole in the corner of the yard, planted the sprouted seeds, and watered them with the fountain of life.

While waiting for the ground to be broken ground, Zhuang Zhimeng took out the machine and cleaned the yard.

"Honey, let's add a few more traps."

"No problem, I can handle it in no time."

Number 001 provides timely reminders.

"Master, there's no need to set up traps."

"Why?"

"This tree can only grow to 1.5 meters tall, it won't grow another centimeter."

Zhuang Zhimeng was speechless.

"Honey, there's no need to go. The tree will only grow to 1.5 meters at most. Who would be able to see it?"

"Honey, let's go to the train station."

"Yes, the first year my grandparents brought the car back, they insisted on not driving it and instead took the train."

Trains are definitely not very comfortable; I wonder if they were able to handle it?

"We'll know once we pick up Grandpa and Grandma."

The couple then drove to the train station.

Zhuang Bingqian and Cao Wenxiu were both in very good spirits and did not look like people in their eighties at all.

"Grandpa, Grandma, you two are doing quite well."

"Right? I already said we have no problems and are in good health."

I can still exchange a few blows with Zhiwu.

"Haha, I bet Second Brother wouldn't dare to challenge you."

"Hey, I bet he wouldn't dare."

An Qingbai put away his grandparents' luggage.

"Grandpa, Grandma, shall we go home?"

Zhuang Bingqian shook his head.

"Put me in Zhongnanhai. The top leader has something to talk to me about. He'll pick me up tonight."

"Okay, let's go over there now."

After putting Zhuang Bingqian down, the other three went home.

The children all surrounded their great-grandmother, asking her all sorts of questions.

Cao Wenxiu answered the children's various questions with a smile.

When the fluffy ball saw the yarn, wow, the three dogs pounced on it.

Even though we haven't seen each other for several years, our feelings for each other remain very deep.

Zhuang Zhimeng smiled and went back to her room to get the furry specimen.

"Mommy, is the fluffy thing alive?"

"Fatty, come and touch me."

Fatty carefully touched it with his hand.

"This isn't alive, it's furry. Don't worry, we'll take good care of your child."

Fatty was already wiping away tears as he spoke.

When the chubby one cries, the little ones cry too.

Cao Wenxiu picked up Kaikai, who was crying uncontrollably.

"Kai Kai, why are you crying so sadly?"

"Hiccup, I don't know either. When I saw Fatty Brother crying, I, hiccup, wanted to cry too."

The elders were truly at a loss for words, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Zhuang Zhimeng clapped her hands.

"Put the fluffy thing in the tree hole, and go see it whenever you miss it."
