"This is Sister Xiaohong, and this is Sister Zhongling," Su Xiaonuan said, pointing to the two girls. "Doudou, Guoguo, quickly greet these two sisters!"
"Hello, Sister Xiaohong! Hello, Sister Zhongling!" Guoguo blurted out.
"Hello, sisters!" Dou Dou only remembered Xiao Hong, but not Zhong Ling. After thinking for a moment, she could only say, "Hello, sisters."
"So cute!"
Xiao Hong and Zhong Ling were charmed by the two adorable little ones, and they couldn't help but reach out to touch Dou Dou and Guo Guo's faces.
"You're girls, you can't just touch boys like that." Guoguo turned her face away.
DouDou, a bit slow to react, pushed XiaoHong's hand away in disgust when XiaoHong touched his face. "Don't touch me!"
"Hahaha..." Xiao Moran burst into laughter at his two precious sons. "They've only been in school for a few days and they've already learned all this about the difference between boys and girls. Back in my day, I didn't start talking about the difference between boys and girls until I was in junior high. You've really surpassed your teacher! You little rascals are way too precocious!"
"That's called developmental delay, not precociousness," Su Xiaonuan rolled her eyes at Xiao Moran. "It's obvious you're all brawn and no brains, you're a simpleton. How can you compare to our two smart and adorable babies?"
"Yes, our two babies are smart and adorable."
"..." Su Xiaonuan fell into his trap without realizing it, thinking to herself, who gave birth to your two little babies?
"Yay!" The two children stretched out their right hands at the same time. "We are smart and cute little babies."
Su Ming and Ye Mei arrived, and they could hear laughter from outside the door.
Zhong Ling opened the door and took the things from the two elderly people.
"What are you laughing at?" Ye Mei went straight to the two children. "I could hear your laughter from outside."
"Grandma!" The two children rushed towards Ye Mei at the same time.
Without waiting for a specific child to arrive, Ye Mei opened her arms and hugged both children at the same time. It had only been one night since they last met, but it felt like they hadn't seen each other for years. She kept kissing their little faces. "My darlings, Grandma missed you so much, I love you so much."
"Grandma, I miss you too," Guoguo said.
"Grandma, I love you too," DouDou said.
"You have such a sweet tongue!" Ye Mei's face beamed with a smile as bright as a flower. "Come on, let's have breakfast. Grandma made you some steamed buns and dumplings."
"Mom, are you steaming buns so early?" Xiao Nuan then looked at the two bags Zhong Ling had placed on the dining table. "You got home so late, you probably didn't sleep all night, did you?"
"Your mother, she's like she's lost her soul when she's away from the two kids. She doesn't sleep, she's always muttering to herself, wishing it would get light so she can come see her precious grandsons." Su Ming shook his head, deeply affected by her plight. "It's keeping me up at night too. So, I told her to find something to do. Sure enough, she prepared the dough in the middle of the night. The next morning, I went out to buy meat, and she made a lot of steamed buns and dumplings. They tasted great. I ate eight steamed buns and six dumplings in one go, and drank a bowl of mung bean porridge."
After saying that, he touched his swollen belly.
"You've worked so hard!" Xiao Moran said apologetically. "It seems I need to buy a bigger house soon so that my parents can move in with us as soon as possible and we won't have to keep traveling back and forth like this."
"Mo Ran, don't put too much pressure on yourself." Ye Mei glared at Su Ming, but said understandingly. "We're getting old, and running around can keep us healthy. We also have some savings, so we can help you out when you buy a house."
“Dad, Mom, keep your money for your retirement. I’m a man, and Xiao Nuan is married to me, so I definitely won’t let you worry about buying a house. Don’t worry, I will give Xiao Nuan and the children a warm home,” Xiao Moran promised. “By the end of the month, I will be able to buy a bigger house. When you have time, go and walk around the neighborhood and see if there are any suitable houses for sale, preferably four-bedroom ones.”
"A four-bedroom apartment?" Ye Mei asked. "Isn't it too big?"
“Not too big, just right,” Xiao Moran said. “Xiao Nuan and I will share one room, Dou Dou and Guo Guo will share one room, you and Dad will share one room, and Mom and my sister will share one room. When you calculate it like this, I think it’s still a bit small. There’s no room for a guest room. The budget is to buy a four-bedroom house, but maybe we can buy an even bigger one in the future.”
He thought that if Warm Brand Mattress replicated Xiao Nuan's franchise fee model and had agents all over the country, he would soon receive a large sum of money, and perhaps soon be able to buy a three-story villa.
The bedding factory has the equipment and working capital in place, and can immediately convert the products into cash. Therefore, he wants to buy a large house in one go, so that both families can come and live together, making it easier to take care of each other.
"Stop making empty promises and hurry up and eat breakfast. You're in for a treat today, with so much delicious food." Su Xiaonuan came out after washing her face and brushing her teeth, already impatient. Whether it was the steamed buns her mother made or the chive boxes made by the two girls, she thought they were all good. A foodie can tell at a glance whether something is delicious or not.
Dou Dou and Guo Guo were clamoring for breakfast when Xiao Moran realized that he had been so busy talking to them that he had forgotten to take the children to wash their faces and brush their teeth. He reached out to hug the two children. "You two haven't washed your faces and brushed your teeth yet. Daddy will take you to wash your faces and brush your teeth."
"I don't want my dad, I want my grandma."
"You two are so disobedient! Do you want to wear your grandma out?"
"We'll walk by ourselves, we don't need Grandma to carry us." With that, they asked Grandma to put them down, and they walked hand in hand toward the bathroom, even turning back to make a face at Xiao Moran.
Ye Mei smiled and followed.
Su Ming had already eaten breakfast, so he didn't sit at the table to eat. Instead, he sat in a chair, wearing his reading glasses, and read the newspaper.
Ye Mei only cared about making sure the two children were full first. After the children were full, she started to eat. She didn't eat the steamed buns she made herself, but she ate two chive boxes and drank a bowl of porridge, saying that the chive boxes were delicious.
"Xiaohong, Zhongling, the chive boxes you made are really delicious." Su Xiaonuan ate three steamed buns, two dumplings, two chive boxes, and drank a bowl of porridge in one go.
"I think the xiaolongbao made by Auntie is still the best," the two girls said modestly.
"The steamed buns and chive boxes are both delicious," Xiao Moran said vaguely. "This porridge is also good."
"Xiao Hong, Zhong Ling, after you finish breakfast, come with me to the shop. Your task today is to clean out the storage room. I'll buy you a bed to put in there, and you'll live there from now on." Su Xiaonuan had taken over the Hao You Lai restaurant next door, which had two storage rooms, and she could clear out one for them to live in.
"Thank you, ma'am." The two girls immediately stood up and bowed deeply to her.
"Don't give me that!" Xiao Nuan waved her hand. "Don't be too polite when you're with me, just be casual. And don't call me 'boss lady' anymore. I think you guys call me Sister Xiao Nuan, it's more affectionate. Just call me Sister Xiao Nuan."
"Yes, Sister Xiaonuan."
Xiao Moran had also planned to let the two girls stay with his employees, but seeing that Xiao Nuan had come up with a solution, he didn't say anything. If they were to stay in the employee dormitory at his factory, he would have to inform the two girls first so as not to reveal his identity as the boss.
