Many people came to our house today, so Wen Qiao prepared extra food.
In the past, on weekend afternoons, Shen Jichuan would go to his workplace to attend a meeting for the following week's work.
Old Wu is quite leisurely, after all, he is in this position and is about to retire, so things rarely bother him.
Unless it's something I absolutely have to ask him for.
Lunch was served at two tables. Shen Jichuan, Old Wu, Wen Qiao, and Lü Yazhi, the four adults, sat together.
The Shen triplets, Wu Suowei, Huo Yan, and the nanny who takes care of the triplets sat together.
Wen Qiao has complete peace of mind with her triplets. Whether it's the youngest who grew up with her or the eldest and second children who were raised by their maternal grandmother and nanny in China, they don't need to be fed and can eat very well on their own.
She only occasionally turned her head to look at the children eating.
Wu Suowei was familiar with the Shen family and wasn't shy at all. He would pick out whatever he wanted to eat and would even serve food to his younger brothers.
When Wu Suowei was serving food to Xiao Sanbao, Huo Yan stopped him with a look of disgust.
“Little Wei, you can eat by yourself. You’re too small to take care of your little sister. I’ll take care of her. I’m the older brother, I’m older than you.”
Wu Suowei didn't understand, but he felt that what his older brother said seemed to make sense.
"Then I'll eat it myself."
Wu Suowei looked at Xiao Sanbao as he spoke, "Little sister, you must eat well so that you can grow up strong and healthy."
Little Sanbao smiled with narrowed eyes, "I understand, brother."
Wu Suowei turned to look at Da Bao and Er Bao, and said with a chuckle, "She also calls me brother, so I have a little sister now."
Da Bao rolled his eyes at him.
“That’s my sister. If you want a sister, go ask your mother to give birth to one for you.”
Erbao chimed in, "That's right, this little sister was born to our mother, she's our biological sister. My grandma says that if you're born to the same mother, you're her biological sister."
Wu Suowei immediately said, "I don't care. My grandfather said that you are all my younger brothers and sisters, and you have to call me brother."
Da Bao and Er Bao exchanged a glance.
It seems they are related by blood.
Their maternal grandfather was Wu Suowei's grandfather, so they should be considered his biological father.
Children as young as four or five have no idea how to distinguish between biological and kinship relationships.
Listening to the child's nonsense about relationships, Wen Qiao found it all amusing and entertaining.
Shen Jichuan finished his lunch first, and then went upstairs to change his clothes. He saw that Wen Qiao had also finished eating and was sitting in a chair without moving.
He said, "Xiao Qiao, help me find some clothes."
After saying that, he got up and went upstairs.
Wen Qiao also stood up. "Uncle Wu, Mom, please take your time eating. My older sister can clean up later."
Lu Yazhi said, "Go ahead. Women are more meticulous than men when it comes to daily life. Go and find some clothes for Ji Chuan."
Wen Qiao hummed in agreement.
She had just arrived on the second floor when she saw Shen Jichuan in the bathroom. Wen Qiao thought about going inside to find some clothes for Shen Jichuan to change into.
But then she heard Shen Jichuan softly call out to her, "Come here."
Wen Qiao didn't suspect anything and went over. "What's wrong?"
The man had just rinsed his mouth with mouthwash he bought from the Friendship Store. He bought two bottles of the same type and scent, one for each of them.
As soon as Wen Qiao walked over, Shen Jichuan grabbed her arm and pulled her into his arms.
In front of them was the mirror of the washbasin.
Wen Qiao could see all of Shen Jichuan's expressions and demeanor simply by looking at him in the mirror.
Why are you staring at me?
Shen Jichuan asked in a low voice, "Do you know why Huo Dongqing went abroad?"
