The next day was New Year's Day, and everyone else got a day off, but Huo Haocheng had to get up and go to the army base with a heavy heart.
When Ruan Ruan came up, the children were already playing in the living room.
As soon as she came in, Xiao Bao ran over and hugged his mother's leg, complaining, "Mommy, Mommy, my brothers are bullying me! They're so mean!" Xiao Bao pouted as he told her, and Ruan Ruan found him so adorable that she immediately picked him up.
"How did your brothers bully you? Tell Mommy, Xiaobao." Ruan Ruan coaxed Xiaobao gently while pinching his pouty lips.
After she carried Xiaobao to the sofa and sat down, Wenli and Dabao came over.
"Mom, my little sister kept saying that Sun Wukong is the coolest character in Journey to the West, but I think Nezha is the coolest!"
"No, no, Auntie, Erlang Shen is the most handsome."
"Sun Wukong is the most handsome."
Hearing that his two older brothers wouldn't give in to him even when their mother was there, Xiao Bao started yelling at them. Da Bao and Wen Li really didn't want to give in either, especially when they heard that none of the three of them would give in to their favorite cartoon character. Suddenly, the living room was filled with the shouts of the three children.
Grandpa, Grandma, and Mom couldn't stand the three children's roaring and retreated far away. But Ruan Ruan, who was in the eye of the storm, couldn't retreat even if she wanted to. At this moment, she regretted it so much. Why did she wake up so early today?
Finally, when she couldn't take it anymore, Ruan Ruan resorted to her hands, gently tapping the mouths of the three children with her hands, making a 'pop pop pop' sound, which immediately attracted their attention.
Then they stopped arguing and started playing by themselves, mimicking Ruan Ruan's movements.
"Hehehe, Mom, this is so much fun!" Xiao Bao sat on his mother's lap, tapped the door a few times until it made a sound, and then looked at his mother with a grin.
"Haha, Auntie, this can even make a sound!"
"Mom, that's amazing!"
After saying that, the three of them started playing again without prior arrangement.
Seeing that they had stopped shouting, Ruan Ruan breathed a sigh of relief.
Good heavens, the three most treacherous officials in Heaven have now been favored by their three sons. Well, at least they're better off liking Tang Sanzang.
Seeing that the three children had stopped arguing, the old lady immediately brought out their water bottles. "Dabao, Xiaobao, Wenli, it's time to drink water."
Upon hearing their great-grandmother call them, Da Bao and Wen Li immediately ran over. Xiao Bao was a little slower because it took her some time to slip off her mother's lap.
After drinking water, the three little ones went to practice calligraphy with their great-grandfather, which is their daily routine.
After the children left, Ruan Ruan picked at her ears.
In her grandmother's and mother's eyes, this action was also a sign that she hadn't grown up. "You!"
"At their age, they're exactly the kind of people that even dogs and humans dislike."
After having lunch at home, Ruan Ruan drove to the factory. Because of the melting snow, it was not only cold outside, but the roads were also very difficult to drive on. Ruan Ruan put snow chains on the tires and drove very slowly.
When her friends got married, she gave each of them a wedding dress. This time, Gu Jingyan was no exception. Fortunately, when she was rushing to make the clothes, a supply and marketing cooperative in Shanghai ordered a batch of wedding dresses. Although they were called wedding dresses, they could also be worn when visiting relatives. They were bright red open-necked sweaters with slightly puffed sleeves and a cross design on the front. They were paired with bright red horse-face skirts. A black or other dark-colored garment could be worn under the sweater, and a bright red woolen coat was worn over it. The horse-face skirts and coats were embroidered with various patterns.
When Ruan Ruan went to the factory to pick up her clothes, she called Luo An along. The market price of this set of clothes was 188 yuan. As the factory manager, Ruan Ruan had to set an example by having Luo An pack the clothes for her and giving him the money. After writing it down in the account, she drove directly to the Gu family.
The day after tomorrow is Gu Jingyan and Deng Yi's wedding day. Logically, they should come to add the dowry tomorrow, but Ruan Ruan thought that the clothes should be tried on first. Otherwise, if they are delivered tomorrow and don't fit, there will be too little time to change them. Anyway, she has already come out, so she doesn't care about the time.
When she arrived at the Gu family home, only her second aunt and grandmother were there. Seeing her carrying a large bag of things, Zhou Lifang immediately stepped forward to take it from her, saying, "You've come all this way, why did you bring so much stuff!"
"I was so busy before, and I only found out yesterday that Sister Jingyan is getting married the day after tomorrow. It just so happens that today is New Year's Day, so I brought some things over. Where are Sister Jingyan and her husband? Aren't they home?"
As soon as she entered the house, the old lady poured Ruan Ruan a cup of hot water. "Hurry up and drink some water to warm up. Your sister Jingyan and sister-in-law went out to buy things. They should be back soon. Sit down and rest for a while."
After drinking a glass of water, she felt much warmer and sat softly next to her grandmother. "Grandma, where's Grandpa?"
It's a holiday today, and I don't have anything to do. Logically, I should be at home, so why am I not here?
"Your maternal grandfather and paternal grandfather have both gone to a meeting."
The old lady also heard from her husband that Ruan Ruan and her team had achieved remarkable success at the trade fair, which gave the leaders hope. They had been holding meetings for some time now, and she had learned about some of the content of those meetings. But all of this was good news for Ruan Ruan and her team.
When Ruan Ruan heard that she had gone to a meeting, she didn't ask any further questions.
After chatting with her grandmother and second aunt about family matters and factory matters, Dr. Jiang and Gu Jingyan came in carrying large and small bags.
"Oh my, our busy person finally has some time!" Dr. Jiang teased as soon as she saw Ruan Ruan and put her things on the table.
