After dinner, Tingting washed up, put Fubao and Qiuqiu to sleep, and then started grading homework. The grades were always perfect, which made Tingting very happy.

"Honey, why are you so happy? You seem to be in a good mood."

"Isn't this just to show them how well they did on their homework? Look at this score, another perfect mark."

“Chengcai has always been very capable, need I say more?” Jianjun was used to it.

“We both need to study too, and hopefully the whole family can get into university,” Tingting said with a smile.

"Let's not think about things that are so far away. What we need to think about right now is how we're going to spend the New Year."

"Also, we'll be too old by then, it might not work out."

"Honey, I asked the kids what they wanted to eat today, and I'll see what I can make for them. What about you? What would you like to eat?"

"Me? I want to make tomato beef brisket. You can make the rest however you like."

"Do you think we'll be spending this year as a family?"

"This year I'll send some gifts to my parents, and they'll definitely be spending the New Year with my older brother and his family. We'll have them come on the first day of the Lunar New Year."

"Okay, let's settle on this for now. I'll proceed with this plan. We'll cook more dishes this year; the kids are all grown up now and can eat more."

"I still need to make a few more pairs of shoes for these kids. Their feet grow so fast! Luckily, we have a lot of these things in stock."

"The children are growing up and there are more of them, so there are more things to worry about. This family is really fortunate to have you, my wife, because you are so thoughtful."

"Don't say that. You've contributed a lot to this family. We all work together, and everyone in our family is indispensable," Tingting said with emotion.

Cheng Cai and You Cai would visit the three grandfathers whenever they had free time, and Jian Jun tacitly allowed them to help. They would often bring things with them, all of which Jian Jun had prepared for them.

Tingting made these shoes by the kang (heated brick bed), and they're the perfect size to wear in the spring.

"You bunch of brats, stop memorizing your questions and come over here to try on these shoes and see how they feel."

“Auntie, this size is just right. I can wear new clothes or shoes every time the seasons change. These shoes are so soft,” Youcai said happily, walking back and forth.

Tingting was very happy to see that he was more lively than before. Look at this child, he really considers this place his home, and he no longer feels that restraint.

Although Youcai is not as smart as Chengcai, this child also has his strengths: he is hardworking, diligent, and can listen to advice. He doesn't keep things bottled up and will speak his mind directly.

The children were very happy. After trying on the shoes, they took them all back to their rooms and hid them in their closets, planning to wear them in the spring.

The Lunar New Year is just a few days away. Tell us the names of your dishes. Everyone has to say something. Let's see what your favorite dishes are. Each person should say at least two.

"Mom, mine is pork ribs, braised pork."

"I want to eat crab, Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, fish, and shrimp."

"I want to eat spicy stir-fried beef tenderloin, lamb chops, and sweet vegetables. Oh, and this spicy shredded pork, and sweet and sour pork."

"Chengcai and Youcai, what do you want to eat? Everyone has to say, and you two have to say too."

"I'll eat the hot pot first, and the juice from last time too," Cheng Cai said, a little embarrassed, when he saw his aunt staring at him.

After all, the hot pot last time was just so delicious.

"You're so talented! What do you want to eat? We've already told you everything, now it's just your turn. Think about it."

"Auntie, there are so many dishes, I feel like I like them all."

"No, everyone has to order. You should also share your thoughts."

"I want to eat sauerkraut and chicken stew with potatoes," this is the most delicious dish Youcai has ever eaten.

Okay, let's make all the arrangements. This year, our whole family can have a reunion and a bountiful year.

When Cheng Cai and You Cai heard that they were family, they couldn't stop smiling.
