Chapter 537 Instant Familiarity

The Sheng family has been busy since morning.

Zhang Shuzhen and Aunt Li, along with Zhou Qinglan and a few others, cooked a variety of delicious dishes in the kitchen.

Sheng Xinhua led his younger siblings to play outside, so they wouldn't cause trouble, and he could also keep an eye on what was happening outside.

During the Chinese New Year, children love to set off firecrackers. Several children would fill their pockets with all kinds of firecrackers, stick them in a row on the snow, and light them one by one.

In the past, Sheng Xinhua would have lit the firecrackers in his hand before throwing them. Now, he's much more cautious.

After experiencing the incident of making a gun to break his hand, Sheng Xinhua listened to his father's advice.

Now he is focused on joining the army or taking the military academy entrance exam when he grows up, so he is very concerned about himself and will never allow himself to get hurt in the slightest.

Sheng Xinhua applied the ointment that Wang Chunxiu had specially sourced to his hand, and the scars had already faded.

The black marks have faded considerably and are now barely noticeable unless you look closely.

The Sheng sisters, Sheng Yunfang and Sheng Yunfei, are probably fraternal twins. Although they look alike, it's easy for outsiders to tell that they are different.

Sheng Xiping and Wu Yucheng were also sitting on the sofa chatting.

Just like ordinary sisters, you can tell they're from the same family when you meet them, but it's easy to tell who they are.

“What’s so presumptuous about this? It’s Chinese New Year, and everyone visits relatives.” Sheng Liancheng laughed heartily upon hearing this.

"He's good in every other way, except he doesn't have a vegetable garden. If he had one, that would be perfect."

Without saying a word, Sheng Xinyu ran into the yard, shouting as he ran, "Grandpa, Grandma, my dad is back."

The children were having a great time playing outside when they suddenly looked up and saw Sheng Xiping's car turning from the intersection of No. 1 Middle School Road.

Zhang Shuzhen greeted Jiang Guozhong and his wife with a smile and held the hand of Jiang Yanbin's mother, Cao Yuqin.

The two boys slept on the way, and now that they've woken up, their diapers are soaked with urine.

Sheng Yunfei and Sheng Xitai put the two babies on the kang (a heated brick bed) and untied the blankets.

Sheng Xitai helped his fifth sister carry the baby, while Sheng Xikang helped carry the luggage. Sheng Xiping and Sheng Xi'an helped Jiang Yanbin's parents, and Jiang Yanbin carried a lot of things out of the car.

Just then, Sheng Xiping and his brothers parked their car at the gate.

After the two children changed their clothes and put on new diapers, the two little rascals really got to work, crawling all over the kang (a heated brick bed), from one end to the other, moving incredibly fast.

The two kids crawled on the kang (a heated brick bed) for a while, then got bored and, holding onto the windowsill, took a step and climbed right up onto it.

Luckily, the windowsill in the Sheng family's house was quite wide; otherwise, the two children would definitely have fallen out.

"Wu Peng, Wu Hao, you two get down here!" Sheng Yunfei was furious when she saw this, so she called the two children down.

“Yes, people have always said that we don’t look alike since we were little.” Sheng Yunfang smiled and nodded, sitting down next to Cao Yuqin to keep her company.

"Hey, Brother Jiang, Sister-in-law, Happy New Year! I didn't expect you to come. You must have had a long journey." Sheng Liancheng said, extending his right hand.

Sheng Yunfang quickly made some tea and brought it over. "Uncle, Aunt, have some water."

"Brother and sister-in-law, Happy New Year! I apologize for the intrusion during the New Year. Please forgive me."

Jiang Yanbin's father, Jiang Guozhong, quickly reached out and shook hands with Sheng Liancheng.

As he spoke, Sheng Liancheng invited the guests into the east room to sit down and chatted with the Jiang family of three.

Good heavens, seven brick houses, all very grand. You can tell at a glance that this family is doing quite well.

Hearing this, Sheng Liancheng and his wife quickly came out and headed towards the gate.

When the guests arrived, Zhang Shuzhen couldn't leave them behind to go to the kitchen, so she sat on the sofa and chatted with Cao Yuqin.

As the group entered the courtyard, Jiang Yanbin's parents finally noticed the row of houses belonging to the Sheng family.

"This girl is really beautiful. You and your sister don't look that much alike."

Cao Yuqin smiled and grasped Sheng Yunfang's hand, looking her up and down.

Upon seeing this, Sheng Liancheng and his wife hurriedly came forward to greet them.

"Second brother, hurry back and tell Grandpa that Dad and the others are back." Sheng Xinhua called out to Sheng Xinyu as soon as he saw them.

Jiang Guozhong and his wife had only ever seen Sheng Yunfang's photos; this was the first time they had seen her in person.

"This is the eldest son's family. My wife and I usually live in the forest farm in the valley. We only come back for the New Year because it's inconvenient to stay at the forest farm," Sheng Liancheng quickly explained upon hearing this.

"Wow, this house is really nice, spacious and bright, it's quite rare."

Seeing this, Wu Yucheng and his wife didn't rush to greet them. They thought it was fine to do whatever they wanted with their own family, but they couldn't be impolite in front of outsiders.

Sheng Yunfei quickly found clothes, pants, and diapers to change the two children.

"Fifth sister, are they even more mischievous when they're at home? You must be exhausted." Feng Shuyan couldn't help but laugh as she looked at her two little nephews.

Sheng Liancheng, however, turned his head and saw his son-in-law and daughter, and smiled at them. "Yucheng, come on, let's go home and chat inside."

By now, the food in the kitchen was almost ready, and the three daughters-in-law of the Sheng family came in and helped Sheng Yunfei with the preparations.

The Jiang family lived in the steel factory's residential area, in a two-and-a-half-room public house with a small yard. So when they saw the Sheng family's house, Jiang Guozhong couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"Sister-in-law, come on, let's go inside and talk. You must be tired from the long journey, come in and rest for a while. The food is ready, let's eat first."

But the two were having so much fun that they couldn't listen to their mother. They continued to do as they pleased, climbing back and forth on the windowsill.

She has a daughter, and she can already give her husband and daughter a lot of trouble. These two boys are even more destructive, they're definitely going to be a nightmare for them.
