Jiang Yan finally bought half a pound of dark gray wool, planning to knit a scarf for Si Lu. In fact, she didn't need so much, and the rest could be used to knit him a pair of gloves, which would be a perfect match.

There were also brightly colored wool yarns on the counter. Jiang Yan planned to pick the best and buy a pound of it. She would knit two vests for her two children to wear in the spring.

Yellow easily attracts small insects, so Jiang Yan directly rejected it.

Red is good, the child is still young, so he can wear it. And the child is fair-skinned every day. He got tanned in Northeast China before, but now he is fair again. He must look good in this.

Finally, I bought a pound of red wool and went home carrying a lot of things.

When Jiang Yan returned to the compound, Ning Yu and Si Xinnian had already returned home with their children.

The children were probably tired from playing, so they fell asleep as soon as they got home, and they didn't even have lunch! Ning Yu was cooking in the kitchen, and Si Xinnian was washing clothes in the bathroom. When they heard the noise at the door, they came out at the same time.

"Wow." Ning Yu exclaimed and hurried forward to answer, "Why did you buy so many things?"

"It's almost Chinese New Year."

Si Xinnian saw the wool that Jiang Yan bought and asked casually, "Do you want to knit a sweater?"

"I plan to knit a scarf for Si Lu." Jiang Yan smiled, "I plan to knit two vests for the children."

"You are so busy at work, how can you find the time? Your mother and I will weave it. It will be finished in three to five days."

Ning Yu smiled and joked, "You don't understand. We can knit the vest together, but Yanyan has to knit the scarf herself."

Jiang Yan felt a little embarrassed, but Si Xinnian understood immediately and said "oh" meaningfully.

"Last time Yanyan knitted a vest for Si Lu. Si Lu was so precious that he wore it with great care. It's been a few years, but it still looks like new. He shows it off to everyone he meets."

Jiang Yan recalled that when Si Lu was in the Tianning regiment, he put on that vest and looked like a proud peacock, spreading his feathers wherever he went...

It's too shameful to watch!

"I bought this wine for my dad and grandpa. We'll drink this during the Chinese New Year."

"Moutai, it's hard to buy, and it's limited! It must have cost a lot of money."

"Mom, I have a salary. Besides, I usually eat and live at home, so I don't have any money to spend. I have never taken care of anything that comes to the house or what the children eat and use. It's only right for me to buy some good wine to honor Grandpa during the New Year."

Ning Yu said that she felt bad about the money, but in fact, she was very happy! Who wouldn't be satisfied if their daughter-in-law was so sensible and filial?

"You also bought candy?"

"Well, it's Chinese New Year, so there must be candy! But don't give Chao Chao and Mu Mu as much as possible. I'm worried about their teeth."

If it were another mother-in-law, she might be unhappy to hear her daughter-in-law talk like this. What right do you have to teach me a lesson and give me tasks?

But Ning Yu was not angry. Instead, she agreed immediately, "Don't worry. I know that this tooth is a lifelong event."

Jiang Yan showed the two of them the cloth she bought as if she was presenting a treasure.

"Mom, Auntie, what do you think of this fabric I bought?"

"Oh, it's really beautiful."

Si Xinnian touched it and couldn't help but say, "It's so slippery."

"This material is thicker and can be used as a spring outerwear. I think this checkered pattern looks good. Do you like it?"

Si Xinnian didn't expect that there was something about her, "You bought it for me?"

"Of course! After working hard for a year, of course there are gifts. If it weren't for my aunt's help, my mother would be exhausted from taking care of the children alone."

"That's right, wear what your children buy for you, and after the New Year, make some clothes so you can wear them out beautifully."

Si Xinnian smiled comfortably, "I didn't say I didn't want to wear it. This is a gift from my child."

"That's right."

"I went to the gold shop today. I wanted to buy some hard currency as a gift, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing..."

When Jiang Yan told Ning Yu and Si Xinnian about the bad things, they were very angry.

"What kind of person are you? You helped them catch the thief and got back the gold, but they actually said that about you."

"That's right." Si Xinnian also had a bit of displeasure on his face. "Is that woman stupid? How could she say such a thing? How did she become the director?"

Ning Yu said in a nonchalant tone, "It's probably through the back door."

"And what happened next?"

Jiang Yan said, "I took out my officer ID and slammed it on the table. Everyone was stunned. Director Xu even opened it to show them."

Ning Yu laughed happily, "That's the way it should be. I'll teach you a lesson about looking down on others."

When she was working before, she also met people like Sun Qiuyue who couldn't tell right from wrong and didn't know what was good for them. Dealing with such people was the most tiring. It seemed that her brain structure was different from that of normal people. She had to go against others in order to highlight her uniqueness.

She thought she was pretty great, but in the end, other people looked at her like she was a fool and she was speechless.

"That's right, hit her hard in the face."

"Hey, I'm not angry, why are you angry?"

Jiang Yan hugged Ning Yu and said coquettishly, "Mom, I'm hungry. When are we going to eat?"

"Okay, let's eat, right away."

Ning Yu ran to the kitchen and said, "You two should clean up the things, and then we can eat."

With Si Xinnian's help, the two of them quickly packed up the things Jiang Yan had bought.

"Mom, let me help you."

Jiang Yan did too little work at home, so when she was resting, she would unconsciously think about helping her mother-in-law share some of the work and making it easier for her.

Put yourself in their shoes.

When Si Xinnian saw this, she felt extremely envious. Her sister-in-law, the daughter-in-law, was no different from her own daughter, and the mother and daughter got along very well. On the other hand, she gave birth to three ungrateful children who all wanted to lie on her and suck her blood.

Si Xinnian cheered up, cleared the table and prepared the dishes.

There were two dishes for lunch, one was spicy tofu and the other was fried sausage with green peppers.

The staple food is sugar triangles and porridge.

This combination is Jiang Yan’s favorite, as she can eat two staple foods!

"I made steamed egg custard for the children and left some porridge. When they wake up, I will stir-fry some carrot and pork shreds for them. I have already cut the vegetables!"

Jiang Yan couldn't help but sigh, "Mom, with you and aunt here, I can rest assured."

He even retired early to help her take care of the children. Otherwise, Ning Yu would still be working in the general surgery department!

"Hey, I'm the child's biological grandmother. Besides, I'm not helping you take care of the child. I'm helping my son take care of my own grandson."

Ning Yu has a very clear understanding.

"Yanyan, there is something I need to discuss with you. After the Chinese New Year, the child will be three years old. Do you want to send him to kindergarten, or should we continue to take care of him? Will he go directly to elementary school in the future?"

Generally, in dual-income families, children are sent to nursery when they are one year old.

In Jiang Yan's mind, a song suddenly rang out: Mom and Dad go to work, I go to kindergarten...
