Seeing Gu Chuanming like this, Zhang Hongmei was truly relieved. She had been worried that his successor would spoil the child. This man was even stricter than she was; that was good.

Little did she know that this was a decision made by Zhang Shouyi and his two sons. Zhang Xingguo originally thought that the children were still too young, not even three weeks old yet, and should be taken care of.

Zhang Shouyi simply said, "Why don't we just send them to the mountains?"

The two old people fell silent. Zhang Shouyi was also afraid that the children would be spoiled and raised badly.

The four children, plus Ping An, were jumping for joy when they learned they were going to see their maternal and paternal grandmothers.

The four of them had access to spiritual spring water every day, which made them exceptionally intelligent. They had discussed this privately since Hu Aifen had been gone for so long.

How could I not be happy to hear that Grandma was back?

When Hu Aifen returned home, her heart was in turmoil. She had been with her family for over two years since the birth of her four children, never truly separated. She had been in Haishi recently, knowing there was no way to avoid it, and now she was back. She desperately wanted to go see her children immediately. But she also needed to settle her second son's family; her grandson had been listless in the car, and she was still worried. So she had to hold back, thinking she would go see him herself that evening.

So when they got home, she didn't care how tired she was. She helped her daughter-in-law unpack her luggage and handed the child over to her mother-in-law.

Upon seeing their great-grandson, Liu Changhe and his wife beamed with joy.

"Honey, why isn't our eldest grandson as handsome and agile as Weiyu and the others?"

"With their parents looking like Hongmei and Shouyi, how could they possibly have an ordinary child?"

She rolled her eyes at the old man. Honestly, was he disgusted with his great-grandson?

"I'm telling you this, but don't tell anyone, or Jingxiang's wife won't want to hear it."

"I know, I'm stupid!"

Liu Jingxiang and his wife were arranged to stay in the third courtyard. The room had been cleaned thoroughly and was fully furnished.

Ma Li's mind was in turmoil. She had thought they were just an ordinary family, and even if they had some money, it wouldn't be much. She hadn't expected them to have such a big house, and the furniture was all made of good wood. Just from the furnishings, you could tell this was a wealthy family.

"Mom, is this our home?"

"Yes, this is an old house, but it's been sitting uninhabited for a long time. We only cleaned it up a few years ago after we moved here."

"Then my second uncle and aunt don't know, right?"

Hu Aifen immediately understood what her daughter-in-law meant. Although her second daughter-in-law was not good-looking, she was quite smart.

“I’ve never been here. Your second uncle should know, but he probably doesn’t remember it well. Your second wife doesn’t know.”

"Oh! I knew it."

“Ma Li, our family may not be rich, but we will definitely not have a hard life.”

"Mom, I don't care about these things. If life is good, great; if it's bad, Jingxiang and I will go out to work and earn money, and we won't be sad."

"Good boy, Shen Xiuting has only done one good thing, finding you as a wife for Jingxiang."

"Mom, I'm ugly, and I'm older than Jingxiang."

"So what? Our family values ​​character. As long as you live a good life with Jingxiang, I'll be content. If Jingxiang dares to do anything to betray you, neither your father nor I will stand for it."

After hearing her mother-in-law's words, Ma Li's eyes reddened. Having such a mother-in-law was a blessing she had accumulated over several lifetimes.

"Mom, I'll be fine."

Hu Aifen patted Ma Li's hand, "You two should go find jobs in a few days. Your grandma and I will take care of the child. Once you have jobs, you won't have any more worries."

“Yeah, I want to go back to work too. Ever since I got pregnant, my mistress has been making me quit my job and stay at home. It’s been almost a year and a half now, and I’ve had enough.”

"Yes, young people like you should have something to do. Look at Jingxiang, he went to a service company in Haishi for a while and became much more cheerful and less stubborn than before."

And you keep the money you earn yourselves; we don't need your money.

"Mom, we are also part of this family."

“Ma Li, I’m content that you say that. Don’t worry, that’s how our family is. Your older brother also earns his own money and saves it for himself.”

Through this heart-to-heart talk, the mother and daughter felt even closer.

Just as they finished tidying up, Liu Aimin returned from grocery shopping. The family was sitting in the living room drinking tea when they heard a knock on the door.

Liu Aimin opened the door and saw the two cars outside. He immediately opened the door wide and let the cars in.

As soon as the four little ones came to a stop, they opened the doors and ran out, calling out, "Great-Grandma, Grandma!"

The four voices in sync are so captivating that they melt your heart.

Liu Aimin looked at the four brats who ran inside. Why weren't they so enthusiastic about their grandfather?

Everyone in the living room came out, and the little one who was lying in the cradle was also startled awake and started crying loudly.

The courtyard, which is usually quiet, is now really lively.

Hu Aifen couldn't care less about her crying grandson. She rushed out, and two of the four children grabbed her hands, while the other two hugged her legs.

"Grandma, you're back! I've missed you so much."

The third child raised his head cutely and hugged Hu Aifen's leg, acting coquettishly.

Liu Changhe and his wife greeted the old lady.

"mother."

"Yes, I've come back to see my great-grandchildren."

Ma Li followed Liu Jingxiang out carrying her child, and was shocked to see the four children on her mother-in-law's back. "Are these fairy children?" she thought.

The old lady spotted Jingxiang and his wife at a glance.

Jingxiang and Mali hurriedly went to the old lady.

"Grandma!"

"Grandma!"

"Okay, okay, it's good that you're back. Let's go inside. I need to check on the children."

Both Liu Jingxiang and Ma Li saw the woman getting off the bus. Ma Li, being a woman herself, was stunned for a moment by Zhang Hongmei's beauty. She was like a fairy descending to earth.

Liu Jingxiang had never seen Zhang Hongmei before, and he was also stunned for a moment. This must be Zhang Hongmei.

Ping An was the slowest, so he had no choice but to go around behind Hu Aifen and grab her clothes.

“You four, let go of your grandma, or she won’t be able to walk.”

Hearing their mother's words, the four children obediently let go, held hands, and greeted Liu Changhe and his wife.

The family sat in the living room, while the rest of the martial arts instructors went to the next room, which had been specially prepared for the drivers and bodyguards to rest in.

“Hongmei. You haven’t met your second brother and sister-in-law yet. This is Liu Jingxiang, your second brother.”

Zhang Hongmei smiled and nodded, "Second Brother."

"This is your second sister-in-law, Ma Li."

"Second sister-in-law, welcome home."

Ma Li blushed, feeling a little awkward. "Hello, Auntie!"

"Second sister-in-law, don't be shy, we're all family."

Liu Jingxiang nodded to Zhang Hongmei as well.

Ma Li handed the child to the old lady. Then Zhang Hongmei sat down next to her and chatted with Ma Li.

Liu Aimin brewed tea again and poured cooled boiled water for the four children as well.
