Shen Qiaoyue has been reborn. In her past life, she was deceived by her best friend and sweet-talked by a scumbag man into divorcing him. After he used her to climb up in the world, he reported her...
Shen Qiaoyue took her two children back to her parents' home to live. Her father will also be back for the New Year this year. Shen Qiaoyue is the happiest one. But the only regret is that her brother-in-law and sister's family did not come back for the New Year.
The children are staying at their maternal grandmother's house, and the older brother and sister-in-law also came back early.
Yuanyuan is a little over four years old and is taller than the other children.
Shen Qiaoyue was helping out at home, and she would occasionally look downstairs.
"What, we're an old married couple, are you still hoping Lu Chen will come to pick you up before you go back?" As the New Year approached, Shen Qiaoyu picked up a broom and started cleaning.
Shen Qiaoyue was picking vegetables while the children were playing in the living room. When they heard Shen Qiaoyu's voice, Shen Qiaoyue glared at him.
"Hey! I'm your brother, and you treat me like this? You have no manners at all!" Shen Qiaoyu pointed at Shen Qiaoyue's head and said, "Look at you, you've turned into a statue waiting for your husband!"
Shen Qiaoyue turned to look at Qian Luoshui and said, "Sister-in-law, take a look at him?"
When Qian Luoshui heard her sister's plea for help, she looked at Shen Qiaoyu and said, "Don't make fun of her. You were just like this when you broke up with me. Why are you making fun of Xiaoyue?"
"Luo Shui, how could you say everything out loud?" Shen Qiaoyu complained. "I think you're just too good to this girl. You're always thinking about her, whether she's warm or cold. I, her husband, haven't even been thought of."
Fu Qingqing saw that this family was really happy, chatting and laughing.
Shen Qiaoyue said to Shen Qiaoyu, "It's because you don't think about your sister-in-law at all. All you do is work, work, work. Yuanyuan is definitely closer to your sister-in-law. I'm good to my sister-in-law, so she'll definitely only be good to me too."
Qian Luoshui often said in phone calls that her elder brother always thought only of himself and never thought about her and her child, and that he didn't care about the child's life.
Every time Shen Qiaoyue cursed her older brother along with Qian Luoshui, Qian Luoshui would feel that Shen Qiaoyue's cursing was too fierce and would help explain.
Shen Qiaoyue felt that Qian Luoshui was losing himself because he didn't have a job. Sometimes, after complaining, he would just comfort himself.
"Nonsense, your sister-in-law is only good to me," Shen Qiaoyu said to Shen Qiaoyue, unconvinced.
Shen Qiaoyue made a face at Shen Qiaoyu.
"Hey~ You're itching for a beating!" Shen Qiaoyu made a gesture as if she was about to hit Shen Qiaoyue with a broom.
"Uncle, you're not allowed to hit my mother." Da Nian stepped forward, hands on his hips, standing in front of Shen Qiaoyue, bravely facing his uncle, his cheeks puffed out in anger.
Shen Qiaoyu squatted down, pinched Da Nian's chubby cheeks, and said, "When I bullied your mother, you didn't even know it was happening. If I really bullied your mother, what could you do to me?"
Upon hearing this, Da Nian became anxious and angrily roared, "I won't allow you to bully my mother!"
The voice was very loud; even Lu Chen, who had just picked up Shen Yuanfan downstairs, could hear Da Nian's voice.
As soon as Lu Chen got out of the car to help his father-in-law with his luggage, he heard the children's voices.
"That must be Da Nian's voice, louder than on the phone." Shen Yuanfan had never met his son and daughter's child; it had been four years since he last saw the child.
Time really flies.
Lu Chen replied, "Yes, it's Da Nian's voice. Dad, you can hear Da Nian's voice so clearly on the phone?"
“I have never seen the Lunar New Year, but I talk to the children every month. I remember their voices and can only identify them by their voices.”
As a researcher, he would not return home for several years, the longest being six years, until his daughter grew up and got married.
I'm really a terrible father.
"I'm going to see the children soon, I'm so happy." Shen Yuanfan is quite old, but for the sake of his work, he has resolutely chosen to stay in the place where he works for so many years. It is rare for the organization to give him a holiday to come back for the New Year.
Lu Chen said, "Dad, you go up first, I'll take your luggage."
"Okay, I'll go up first." Shen Yuanfan grabbed a small bag and couldn't wait to go up and see the children and family.
Lu Chen carried his luggage and followed Shen Yuanfan upstairs.
At this moment, Da Nian was still at odds with Shen Qiao Yu, showing no fear of his uncle.
Seeing his older brother's imposing presence, Xiao Nian wanted to stand up and help him protect their mother.
"Don't bully Mom, stay with your brother," Xiao Nian said earnestly.
"Xiao Nian, you are really ungrateful. Your uncle has been so good to you, and now you are treating him like this, just like your brother?" Shen Qiaoyu said to Xiao Nian, pretending to be angry.
Xiao Nian, who was loved by his uncle more than his own son, looked up at his uncle guiltily.
After a moment's thought, she said, "Uncle, as long as you don't bully my mom and brother, I still like you."
Xiao Nian looked up at his uncle with a serious expression and said.
Seeing how much her two children love her, it's truly worth risking her life to give birth to them.
Shen Qiaoyu put down the broom, picked up Xiao Nian, kissed her, and said, "Xiao Nian, how can you be so cute? My cutest Xiao Nian, your uncle just loves you."
"Put your sister down?" Xiangxiang, wearing a hat, walked over shakily, raising her small hand to slap Qiao Yu's thigh. "Sister, put her down!"
Thinking about how her sister had been captured by this stranger, all she wanted was to save her.
Just thinking about it makes me want to cry.
Shen Qiaoyu looked at Xiangxiang and wanted to reach out to touch Xiangxiang's face, but she dodged him.
"Xiangxiang, be good. Your uncle won't bully your sister. Don't cry." Chu Wanfang quickly came over to comfort Xiangxiang, and her gentle tone stopped Xiangxiang from crying.
Xiangxiang looked up at her older sister Xiaonian, then looked down at her great-grandmother. She clearly believed what her great-grandmother had said.
"Grandma, does baby want some milk?" Thinking about it, I feel hungry. I've stopped crying, but I still want to eat.
Chu Wanfang smiled and said, "Okay, Grandma will make you some milk powder."
Xiangxiang pursed her lips and nodded, following behind Chu Wanfang.
Shen Qiaoyue looked at Xiangxiang, such a lovely daughter. She had lived with her older brother and sister since birth, and the three of them had a very good relationship.
"You know, Qianli is so busy, and Xinlan also has to go to work. I think she rarely sees her parents every day. I'm starting to forget what her parents look like," Chu Wanfang couldn't help but tease.
Qian Luoshui and Shen Qiaoyue were picking vegetables in the kitchen. Shen Qiaoyue said, "They were busy not after giving birth, but even before giving birth."
"I..." Chu Wanfang was about to retort...
"I'm back!" Shen Yuanfan stood at the door and happily greeted everyone.
Hearing a familiar yet unfamiliar voice, everyone looked towards the door.
"Dad!" Shen Qiaoyue called out to her father with the happiest voice, "Dad, you're back?" Shen Qiaoyue happily stepped forward to hug him.
"Xiaoyue, Daddy's back." Shen Yuanfan hugged his youngest daughter and gently patted her back.
Da Nian and Xiao Nian, who were being held by their uncle, were puzzled when they saw their mother holding a strange old man.
