A loud cry shattered the morning tranquility of the courtyard.
Then, it was as if a chain reaction had been triggered.
The sounds of crying rising and falling, along with the adults' frantic attempts to soothe and comfort her, instantly filled the entire large courtyard.
"Oh dear! My little darlings! Don't cry! Don't cry, what's wrong?"
Inside the main room, Lin's mother, Zhang Guizhen, was holding a rattle drum and sweating profusely as she coaxed the two adorable little children on the kang (a heated brick bed).
These two are the twins born to Liu Rumeng and Lin Huowang. The elder brother is named Lin Anguo, and the younger sister is named Lin Anle.
This name has quite a prestigious origin!
The name was given by the elderly person themselves, and its meaning is quite grand.
The names of Lin Huowang's other children were also obtained by shamelessly asking the old man for them.
This is Lin Huowang's "cunning" side. His children's names were chosen by his parents. This relationship is something he doesn't need to use, but if it gets out, it will cause a lot of trouble.
"Mother, you should rest for a while. I think Anguo must be hungry."
Liu Rumeng was wearing loose and comfortable loungewear, and her hair was simply tied up.
Although she is now a mother of two, her innate aloof and noble temperament has not diminished but has instead gained an extra layer of maternal radiance, making her even more charming.
She skillfully picked up her eldest son, Lin Anguo, unbuttoned her clothes, and began breastfeeding him.
Yes!
Ever since the girls learned about the benefits of breastfeeding from Lin Huowang, they decided to let their children breastfeed for as long as possible and not to consider weaning.
Meanwhile, the east and west wing rooms next door were also bustling with activity.
"Awang! Come quick! Come quick! Your daughter peed!"
Gong Xue shouted from inside the house.
Lin Huowang was brushing his teeth right now, wearing only shorts!
Upon hearing this, he threw down his toothbrush, his mouth full of foam, and rushed in, saying, "Coming, coming! Where are the diapers? Where are the diapers that were just boiled yesterday? Ugh! Washing and drying dozens of diapers every day, no one else does that!"
I think we should hurry and have someone send over some of the new diapers our Hong Kong branch has developed. Wearing cloth diapers all the time is just too inconvenient…”
He had just finished changing the diaper for Gong Xuesheng's daughter, Lin Anyu, when there was another commotion in Qian Shuzhen's room.
"Awang... um, my son seems to want to play horseback riding with you..."
Qian Shuzhen was standing at the door, holding a cute little chubby baby, her face beaming with smiles.
The children were all born around the same time, with only a few months between them.
However, Qian Shuzhen was the first to get pregnant, and her son Lin Anbang was the oldest. Now he can crawl all over the place and babble "Daddy".
To be honest, the Lin family courtyard house is more like a high-class "kindergarten preparatory office" than a home!
Fortunately, Lui Shui-yung was not used to the weather in the north, and she couldn't bear to leave her parents on Hong Kong Island. Hong Kong Island also needed Lam Ho-wong's woman to stay there. So Lui Shui-yung and her son Lam On-nam lived on Hong Kong Island, and Lam Ho-wong would go there for about a week every month.
Keiko Kobayashi gave birth to a daughter who looked almost exactly like her, as beautiful as a porcelain doll. The old man named her Lin Anyang.
The courtyard was filled with clotheslines, and instead of "flags of all nations" fluttering in the air, they were colorful diapers and baby clothes.
A faint milky aroma wafted in the air, mingling with the fresh scent of budding old jujube trees in the yard, giving one an indescribable sense of peace and contentment.
"call……"
Even someone as capable as Lin Huowang had a hard time managing to appease all those little devils.
He plopped down on the stone bench in the courtyard and let out a long sigh.
Are you tired?
A cup of hot tea was handed to him.
Lin Huowang looked up and saw Liu Rumeng's face, radiating maternal love, smiling as she stood beside him.
"Not tired."
Lin Huowang took the tea, took a sip, and listened to the joyful laughter filling the courtyard.
A happy smile spread across his face as he said, "This isn't tiring at all, it's a blessing! A blessing I could never have dreamed of in my entire life!"
Liu Rumeng sat down beside him and gently leaned on his shoulder, saying, "Yes! Awang, our family is now truly complete."
"but……"
Liu Rumeng then changed the subject, tentatively saying, "Awang! Things at home are going smoothly, but as for things outside, I've noticed you've been frowning a lot lately. Is it because things aren't going too well in Zhongguancun?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Huowang nodded slightly and said:
"Yes, it is indeed a bit troublesome."
It's not about the money. We have Viagra and Dragon Plaza as our cash cows; money is just a number to us. The key issue is... the route dispute."
"route?"
Liu Rumeng asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Yes, some people these days are too short-sighted. They think it's better to buy than to make, and better to rent than to make. They also think that doing research and development is too hard and tiring, so they might as well be a middleman and make money quickly by reselling foreign goods."
"If this kind of thinking prevails, even thirty years from now, China's computer industry and high-tech industry will only be assembly plants working for foreigners!"
“Previously, my attention was focused on national infrastructure and a few car factories, and I didn’t get too involved in this area. But today, I have to go and… teach them a lesson.”
