"Don't worry." Shen Tingzhou seemed to see through her thoughts. He put down his book, took her hand, and said, "Nian'an is a sensible child. She will definitely take good care of Yue'e. They will be back when spring comes."
Lin Wanqiu nodded and rested her head on his shoulder. She knew Shen Tingzhou was right. Nian'an had grown up and was capable of taking care of her own family. As for her, all she needed to do was stay here, guard this home, and wait for them to come back.
“Oh, right,” Lin Wanqiu’s eyes lit up as if she had suddenly remembered something, “I also need to clear out a small plot of land in the space to grow some vegetables and fruits. Yue’e is pregnant and needs to eat more fresh vegetables and fruits. The soil in the space is fertile, and the things grown there taste much better than those outside.”
Shen Tingzhou smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you to the space to farm tomorrow."
A happy smile curved Lin Wanqiu's lips. She could almost see Nian'an leading Yue'e by the hand into this courtyard in the spring. Yue'e's belly would be slightly rounded, and her face would be filled with a gentle smile. And she would be there, carrying the maternity and baby supplies she had prepared, smiling as she greeted them, taking their luggage, and saying, "It's good that you're back."
She could almost see that adorable little baby lying in her arms, babbling "Grandma." The voice was soft and sweet, just like Nian'an's when she was little.
The moonlight outside the window grew ever brighter. The lights inside were warm and inviting. Lin Wanqiu leaned on Shen Tingzhou's shoulder, gazing at the boxes piled on the floor, her heart filled with boundless anticipation. She knew that these carefully prepared baby supplies represented her deepest love for her grandchild. And this love would accompany that tiny life as it arrived in this hopeful spring.
She lowered her head, gently stroking the little clothes in her hands, her eyes filled with tender anticipation. In her heart, she silently said, "My little darling, Grandma is here waiting for you. When you come into this world, Grandma will definitely show you all the beauty of this world, and let you grow up healthy and strong in an atmosphere full of love."
As night deepened, a warm and cozy atmosphere filled the air. This winter night was made especially tender by the impending arrival of a new life. Lin Wanqiu knew that this was only the beginning of happiness. Soon, this family would welcome a new member, bringing new joy. That soft, sweet "Grandma" would be the most beautiful sound she had ever heard in her life.
