"Mom won't give me chicken legs?" Lu Chen felt guilty when he heard how pitiful Yuan Yuan was, as all the good food was given to his two children.

“Don’t listen to the child’s nonsense. He’s sick. The doctor said he should eat light food. Last year, after he called Qiaoyue during the Lunar New Year and the Lunar New Year, he cried so much that I bought him a roast chicken to comfort him and his sister. He was sleeping, but he woke up because of the aroma and wanted to eat it too. When I didn’t give it to him, he cried! He’s been nagging me for ages and tells everyone that I didn’t give him a chicken leg!”

Qian Luoshui was feeding her son, who was thinking about what complementary food he wanted, when she came out of the kitchen and heard him making up stories about her. She was really upset!

Yuan Yuan felt guilty and dared not meet Lu Chen's gaze.

When Liu Xinlan came in and saw her daughter Xiangxiang, she put down her luggage and hugged her daughter.

Qian Luoshui fed Xiangxiang her main meal.

"Xiangxiang, Mom is here!" Xiangxiang was being held by her grandmother, Li Xiaoxiao. When she saw her mother, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, she was stunned at first. After feeling the familiar scent, she burst into tears.

Wow~

The child's loud cries broke Liu Xinlan's heart.

"Think about it, Mom is back, don't cry!" Liu Xinlan couldn't bear to hear the child crying, and her eyes immediately reddened.

Shen Qiaoyue held Yuanyuan in her arms, watching Xiangxiang cry so sadly.

"Sister-in-law, is Yuanyuan feeling better now?" Qian Luoshui had seen all the kindness she showed her two children.

"It's alright now, we can eat meat again in the next few days," Qian Luoshui replied.

Upon receiving a response, Shen Qiaoyue looked into the distance and said, "Yuanyuan, Auntie will take you to buy some delicious roast duck, okay?"

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. We bought a whole chicken today, and Yuanyuan will have a big chicken leg later," Jiang Mingjing said to Shen Qiaoyue as he came out.

"Oh!" Xu Tiande immediately came over and gave Jiang Mingjing a hug, just like an old comrade-in-arms.

"Old Xu, you're back!" Jiang Mingjing was glad he had washed his hands, otherwise they would have been covered in oil.

Jiang Mingjing laughed and said, "We're waiting for you to come back and help us cook. It's just me and Lao Shen in the kitchen, and we're just waiting for you to help us."

Good heavens!

Lu Chen looked at Jiang Mingjing and said, "Dad, I'm back?"

"It's good that you're back. You must have had a long journey." Jiang Mingjing was very happy all day. He had been preparing for the New Year long ago, having heard that his child was coming home.

After releasing Xu Tiande, he looked at Lu Chen, his excitement and joy impossible to hide.

"You must be tired. Take a rest first, and we can eat later." Jiang Mingjing said to Shen Qiaoyue, "Qiaoyue, you've worked hard."

"Dad, I'm not tired."

Shen Qiaoyue responded with a smile, saying that seeing her two children doing well made her feel no fatigue at all.

When Xiao Nian saw his grandfather, he wanted his grandfather to hug him again.

"Grandpa, give me a hug?" Xiao Nian loves her grandpa and stares at him intently.

"Grandpa smells strongly of cooking oil. Daddy, give me a hug, and then Grandpa can hug me later, okay?" Jiang Mingjing was afraid that the smell of cooking oil on his body would choke his granddaughter.

"Second Uncle," Jiang Jinyao greeted, but seeing that her second uncle only had eyes for their family, she exclaimed, "Second Uncle, you can't even see me!"

“What do you mean I can’t see you? I saw you as soon as you came in. We were just chatting with everyone, and we didn’t get to you!” Jiang Mingjing was also a veteran detective, and he could see everyone in the room at a glance.

Jiang Jinyao clearly didn't quite believe what Jiang Mingjing was saying.

"Did you tell your dad when you came back?" Jiang Mingjing asked Jiang Jinyao.

"I don't know, they didn't say. I'm planning to stay here tonight?" Jiang Jinyao said jokingly.

She had already made up her mind. After dinner, she would go back to Anlude's house. Last year, when Anlude was still in the north, she also came back alone to spend the New Year with her parents.

“Then you’ll sleep in the same room as Lu He tonight,” Jiang Mingjing said.

Jiang Jinyao smiled but didn't say anything.

"Which hospital is Lu He in? Do you have the address? I'll go pick her up," Lu Chen asked again.

"You don't need to go. Let Fei Ming go. He's familiar with the terrain around here." Yu Qingce had just put down his luggage and was coming over from home when he heard that Lu Chen was going to pick up Lu He. It was time for his child to show off.

Lu Chen was reluctant and said, "No need to trouble Aunt Yu, I'll go pick her up."

"It's alright, we can go tomorrow." Yu Qingce added, wanting to give his son and Lu He a chance to be alone together so they could get to know each other better.

“Okay, I’ll ride my bicycle to pick you up. It’ll only take twenty minutes round trip. Is there anything you need to buy?” Xu Feiming agreed, giving Lu Chen no chance to refuse.

Shen Qiaoyue looked at Xu Feiming and said, "Brother Xu Feiming, could you please buy me a roast duck? The children love it."

"Okay, I'll go first then."

"Hey! Have you seen Lu He? What if you go and can't find her?" Jiang Mingjing asked worriedly.

Xu Feiming had already turned to leave when he heard Jiang Mingjing's words. At the door, Xu Feiming turned back and said with a smile, "Uncle Xu, I saw Sister Lu He at the hospital at noon. My comrade's mother is receiving treatment there, and it was Sister Lu He who helped arrange the ward."

"How did you know she was Lu He?" Yu Qingce asked with a look of amusement and curiosity.

"It was Lu He who took the initiative to ask for my name, saying that she saw my photo in a group photo at Uncle Jiang's house," Xu Feiming replied truthfully.

Lu Chen's face was contorted with rage. Could it be that the little sister he raised had been taken away?

Shen Qiaoyue glanced at Lu Chen, tugged at his sleeve, and gestured for him to watch his emotions.

Jiang Mingjing also noticed his son's expression, which showed he was not very satisfied with Xu Feiming.

Lu Chen said with difficulty, "Then thank you, Brother Xu Feiming, for troubling you to make the trip."
