Wen Chuyi felt a chill run down her spine as she considered these possibilities.

"Okay, okay, you..."

Just as he asked the question, Zhu Qingyun walked in.

Seeing the two sitting opposite each other with red eyes, I was stunned for a moment.

"What's wrong? We thought you two sisters came in to have a private talk. Why are you both crying?"

Wen Chuyi couldn't possibly tell her mother-in-law about her dream, so she quickly waved her hand in denial.

"No, no, I'm just too happy. You're just trying to make me happy."

Zhu Qinghao understood immediately and replied:

"Yes, Auntie, my sister-in-law was so happy to see my brother come back. I feel sorry for her. She was someone I couldn't cheer up before, but now she's finally crying tears of joy."

Besides, now that my brother is back, my sister-in-law must be much more relieved, and my aunt doesn't need to worry so much anymore.

Zhu Qingyun knew that Wen Chuyi was worried about her, and she was afraid that Wen Chuyi would not eat or sleep well because she kept talking about Zhu Qi'an.

If it were someone else, it wouldn't matter; they might have a lot on their mind, but they'd just gain a little weight. But Wen Chuyi is different. She wasn't in particularly good health to begin with, and she was pregnant with two children.

During that time, Zhu Qingyun was particularly worried, fearing that Wen Chuyi was keeping too many things bottled up inside and would make herself sick.

But as a mother-in-law, she couldn't offer too much advice for fear of bothering people, so she could only ask Zhu Qinghao to help persuade her whenever she came over.

So Zhu Qinghao had always known about her worries about Wen Chuyi. Bringing up the topic like this was indeed to stop her from worrying and at least put her mind at ease for the time being.

Seeing that they both said the same thing, Zhu Qingyun naturally believed it and went over to hug them both.

"Alright, both of you lovely girls, stop crying. It's a rare occasion for the whole family to get together, especially during the New Year. We should be happy so that next year will be even better!"

As soon as Zhu Qingyun mentioned the New Year, it immediately pulled the two of them out of their previous moods, and they both smiled.

Especially Wen Chuyi, she really didn't expect Zhu Qi'an to come back like this, it really gave her a big surprise. It wasn't just a coincidence, and she might not have wanted to talk about her nightmare on such a happy day.

After everyone had calmed down, the three of them came out of the inner room together and went to the kitchen to happily prepare the New Year's Eve dinner with everyone. Even the Zhu family elders and Wen Chuyi sat on the side and chatted lively with everyone.

As for Zhu Yanzhi, as soon as Zhu Qinghao and the others came out, they heard that he had been sent to pick up Old Master Sheng.

Grandpa Sheng lives here alone now, and it's not good for him to spend the New Year in such a quiet and lonely place. So they thought they might as well bring him over and let him spend the New Year with the Zhu family.

Another side purpose was to get Zhu Qi'an to go back to sleep with him after the New Year's Eve dinner, since Zhu Qi'an needed a legitimate identity to move around in the village.

As a result, Zhu Yanzhi went to pick up Grandpa Sheng, and his subsequent purpose was denied by the person involved.

"No need, I'll live in the cowshed with my family. I don't have many days off, and I'll have to leave soon."
