Chapter 705 Celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival

He Yuxiang managed to snag some pork belly, perfectly marbled with fat and lean meat. He Yuan sliced ​​it and pan-fried it until golden brown. Then he added Sichuan peppercorns and chopped red and green chilies, ladling out a bowl full of it.

The sliced ​​meat looks delicious and spicy, perfect for eating with rice.

As He Yuxiang served bowl after bowl of dishes, the domineering aroma filled the entire courtyard.

Xiao Yu wrinkled her nose and ran to the main hall. Looking at the fragrant sliced ​​meat, winter melon and duck soup, large shrimp and fish, and a generous amount of stuffed three treasures, she couldn't resist the aroma and hurriedly went to wash the dishes.

I enjoy holidays.

Holidays are great!

She really loves it when her uncle and aunt have holidays and the whole family can get together.

Xiaoyu washed and set out the dishes, and then served everyone a bowl of soup.

Chen Qing also brought out the two babies and put them in a stroller in the main hall.

"Aunt Feng, dinner is ready."

"Why."

Aunt Feng sometimes doesn't even know whether she should sit at the table or not.

If she's too attentive before meals, people might think she's greedy. If she doesn't do more work, it'll seem like she's waiting to be served, even though she's there to take care of the children.

Today, Comrade Chen said that she didn't need to take care of the two children, which left her even more at a loss.

He Yuan brought out a plate of green vegetables, and everyone could officially start eating.

Before we started eating, everyone opened their drinks and raised their glasses for a toast.

Chen Qing: "Three, two, one."

"cheers!"

Aunt Feng also bumped into them.

Clinking glasses is quite magical; the clinking sound makes it easy to smile.

Chen Qing sat next to He Yuan and peeled shrimp for him.

He started chopping firewood for the next two months as soon as he got up this morning, then repaired and fixed things around the house, and cooked a whole table of food. Chen Qing felt he had worked hard, and when she put shrimp in his bowl, she asked, "Am I a good wife?"

He Yuan: "Yes."

Chen Qing also agreed, and she also felt that she was a good wife.

She specially took a small bowl, hung the peeled shrimp on it, and handed it to He Yuan as a shrimp bowl: "How about it, am I good?"

He Yuan looked at Chen Qing, paused for a moment, and nodded under her urging gaze: "You're the best to me."

"Alright, alright, there's no need for this. Let's eat first." Chen Qing felt she couldn't withstand his affectionate gaze.

He Yuan smiled and took the shrimp bowl from her, then began to eat with satisfaction.

I don't know why, but I feel that the shrimp tastes much better than usual today.

He Yuxiang was about to comfort Aunt Feng when he noticed that she was pinching her thigh to suppress her laughter.

He Yuxiang: "???"

What's wrong?

He Yuxiang looked confused.

Aunt Feng's lips would automatically curl upwards whenever she watched the young couple talking.

I feel so sweet inside.

But she couldn't be too flamboyant, so she had to keep quiet.

After lunch, the whole family took a rare afternoon nap and lay down lazily.

Chen Qing poked Youyou's belly: "Isn't your belly a little big?"

Youyou clutched her stomach and rolled around, then shyly covered herself with the blanket.

He Yuan was amused, then abandoned his son and hugged his wife to enjoy the breeze from the fan.

When Pingping and Youyou saw their parents playing together, they went over and separated them.

The siblings exchanged glances and instantly assigned tasks, with Pingping focusing on the arm her father had placed behind her mother's waist.

She used both of her chubby little hands to pry and push, making "ah ah" noises, trying to bite her father to make him leave her mother.

Youyou, on the other hand, chose to confront the issue head-on.

He climbed directly into the gap between his parents' bodies, using his round body as a wedge, and pushed hard to get in.

Chen Qing saw his little bottom sticking up high, his chubby face turning a little red from straining, and couldn't help but laugh: "What are you guys doing?"

Pingping, with a serious face, was determined to break up her parents. Seeing that her father's arm had loosened a little, she tried even harder.

And little Youyou's wedge tactic has begun to show results. He successfully positioned his little body between his parents, then proudly raised his little face, "Tap!"

He slapped the bed frame hard, glancing sideways at his sister who wasn't making much progress, as if showing off: "Look, I successfully separated them, but you didn't~"

Pingping was so angry that she crossed her arms, turned her small body around, and faced the wall, sulking.

Seeing that she was angry, He Yuan coaxed her to continue dismantling the box.

Pingping turned around angrily and started to tear apart her parents. After a while, she finally managed to tear them apart, and then she burst into a big smile and squeezed between her parents.

After releasing Chen Qing from his embrace, He Yuan gently patted his daughter and coaxed her softly, "We're going to take a nap now. After you wake up, lots of older brothers and sisters will play with you."

Pingping wanted to play for a while, but her father patted her back repeatedly with his palms, and her eyelids started to droop, and she slowly fell asleep.

He Yuan put the two sleeping children into the small bed.

Chen Qing suspected that He Yuan was deliberately making the children waste their energy so that they could sleep better.

After the child fell asleep, the couple snuggled together and took a rare afternoon nap.

Not long after I woke up, Mao Mao came.

Chen Qing went out to greet him.

Talia and Mao Jianguo brought a large goose with them.

Mao Jianguo and He Yuan said, "We'll have drunken goose for dinner tonight; it'll be a great accompaniment to our drinks."

He Yuan had no objection.

Mao Mao had already darted in front of Xiao Yu, her mouth agape in shock: "Wow! Xiao Yu! You're so cute! I declare you the cutest kitten in the whole world!"

Xiaoyu smiled happily and touched her cat ears: "My aunt braided my hair."

Mao Mao circled around her once, and said with a sincere expression, "Auntie's skills are excellent. The hair she braided suits you perfectly. It's absolutely gorgeous and beautiful!"

Chen Qing looked at the emotional value that Mao Mao gave to Xiao Yu, and it was simply off the charts.

Then think back to the praise from those two people this morning; it was extremely brief.

Mao Jianguo scratched the back of his head and said to his wife, "I don't think we'll need to worry about finding a daughter-in-law in the future."

Talia: "Momo is speaking from the heart."

She also thought that Xiaoqing did a great job styling Xiaoyu's hair. Looking at Xiaoyu's beautiful hair, she could feel the love that Xiaoqing had when she was styling Xiaoyu's hair.

Mao Jianguo gave her a thumbs up, saying, "She's awesome!"

Soon, Lin Leyu arrived with Yang Yihe, and finally Wan Anlang also arrived in a hurry.

When Yang Yihe saw Xiaoyu's hair, her eyes lit up, and she took her to paint.

Xiaoyu was praised all day long and was so happy she was practically floating on air.

While Yang Yihe was drawing her portrait, she lowered her voice and whispered, "Xiaoyu, have you made any good friends at the training base?"

"Yes, there's a girl who trains in running. We often race together, it's so much fun!"

Xiaoyu usually slows down when people say she runs too fast, but at the sports training base, although she runs fast, there are others who are about the same speed as her, which makes her really happy!

Yang Yihe felt a pang of sadness. "Then... then am I still your best friend?"

"Yes, yes," Xiaoyu quickly assured her.

"Really?"

Yang Yihe pressed for an answer, her starry eyes slightly widening, revealing a hint of trepidation and unease.

Xiao Yu pursed her lips, her eyes serious, and nodded heavily.
