"Sis, you're amazing."
"Wow, that's something! You even know how to praise your sister now."
Lin Xiaohai turned his head away awkwardly, looking out the window without saying a word.
Lin Wanwan looked at his reddened ears and almost laughed.
Lin Wanwan went to stay at her maternal grandparents' house, and Lu Feng also moved in with his child.
I'm busy every day. I have to report to my department, manage company affairs, and attend the year-end appreciation party and annual meeting all at once.
Lin Wanwan had to personally oversee the progress of the new project.
Although she lives at her maternal grandparents' house, she can only have dinner with her family every night.
Grandma felt sorry for her and kept nagging her, "Don't work so hard. Your two uncles are also in business. If they don't have enough money, they can just give it to you. Why are you working so hard?"
Lin Wanwan laughed uncontrollably, "Grandma, if you keep saying that, your two aunts will get angry."
The eldest aunt immediately chimed in, "I have no objection. Your grandmother is right. If you don't have enough money, just ask your two uncles."
My second aunt chimed in, "That's right, that's right."
“That’s great! When my two uncles come back, I’ll ask them for the money.”
After staying at the He family's house for a few days, Lin Wanwan packed her bags and went to the Xu family's house. As soon as the holiday started, Xu Zhe called and asked her to come and stay for a few days.
"Grandpa, Grandma, I've come to freeload a meal."
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming? I could have asked your aunt to buy more of your favorite foods."
Xu Zhe was flipping through the newspaper in the living room when he said, "They all have their own maternal grandparents now, so why would they still remember us?"
Lin Wanwan immediately burst into laughter and went to hug the old man's arm.
She said in a coquettish tone, "Grandpa, you're not jealous, are you? I'm here now, you know how busy I am. I'm almost done with my work now, so I'll spend some time with you, okay?"
Lu Feng walked over, carrying one child in each arm.
Seeing this, Lin Wanwan immediately picked up Yuanyuan and put her in his arms, saying, "Yuanyuan, quickly call him Grandpa and coax him. Grandpa is angry."
Xu Zhe couldn't keep a straight face any longer after seeing the child.
"I only welcome Tuanzi and Yuanyuan. You can go back now."
"Grandma~~"
Qian Qian walked over and slapped him on the back, saying, "You don't welcome me, but I do. My precious granddaughter has gotten so thin from hunger."
"Yes, Grandma, I've gained a little weight. I was so thin after the exam. Grandma, I really want to eat your cooking."
Xu Zhe made a sarcastic remark from the side, "Tell your own grandmother to make it for you."
Qian Qian slapped him to shut him up.
Lin Wanwan was both amused and exasperated. "Grandpa, why are you jealous? I spend more time here than I do at my two uncles' places. If you keep this up, I'll get angry."
Xu Zhe pursed his lips and said, "Then be angry. I'll be happy if you're angry."
"Grandma, Grandpa is chasing me away."
"Don't listen to his nonsense. He's been talking about you for ages, saying why you haven't brought your kids to play yet. He just misses you."
"Nonsense!! I didn't say that."
When Xu Zhe came home from get off work, he was very happy to see Lin Wanwan.
"How did you lose so much weight?"
"Godmother, I've actually gained a little weight. The department was so busy before, and I was also busy with exams. I was almost exhausted."
"Hu Qing is really something. Does their Ministry of Foreign Affairs have no one else to use? Why are you yelling at me like that?"
"My teacher meant well and wanted me to gradually become familiar with the department's affairs, and I have indeed learned a lot."
Xu Zhe smiled and said, "He called me to praise you, saying he's struck gold. He said your broadcasting is excellent and your scripts are well-written. He's already struck gold, so calling him 'teacher' is a sign of respect."
"Hahahaha, Grandpa, I'm not that good. Don't be so biased towards me."
"What filter? I taught you, so naturally you're the best."
"Grandpa, if you say that, my senior brother will get angry."
"Your senior brother isn't that petty."
Lin Wanwan and Lu Fengzi stayed at the Xu family's house until the 29th of the year.
The two of them took the Xu family back to the Lu family. They had arranged in advance to spend the New Year here, and the entire He family would come.
Fortunately, the yard here is big enough to accommodate us.
There were too many people, and the noise gave Lin Wanwan a headache every day.
The elderly on both sides were the happiest. In the past, they would only see people they didn't want to see visiting during the New Year. This year, however, everyone came as family, making it a lively and joyful occasion.
Cheng Jinyan naturally knew that the old man was here for the New Year, so he brought gifts to pay his respects.
"Jinyan, why are you carrying so many things?" Qian Qian looked at the things in his and her aunt's hands in surprise.
"With so many elders in the family, it's natural to take more."
Song Lanzhi invited him in to sit down.
Today, only He Yumei, Song Lanzhi, and four elderly people were at home in the living room.
He Yumei smiled and said, "Jinyan, please sit down."
Are your two uncles and maternal uncles not home?
He Yumei explained with a smile, "Wanwan's two uncles, Uncle Gu and his father are playing mahjong in the back, Aunt Xu and your Aunt Xu are also playing mahjong, and the child is playing in the back with her aunt."
Lin Wanwan and Lu Feng stayed with them for two days.
"Why did you come here, Senior Brother?"
"You're not welcome?"
"I wouldn't dare take it."
Lu Feng poured him some tea, "Have some hot tea."
"Thanks."
Chen Jinyan usually seems quite kind, and he is humble and polite when chatting with elders.
They were having a pleasant conversation, so Song Lanzhi wanted him to stay for dinner.
"Auntie, no, my grandparents are still at home, I have to go back to eat."
"It's alright, it's alright. I'll have Lu Feng come pick us up. There are a lot of people here, it'll be lively. We can invite your grandparents to come and join in the fun. If they get tired tonight, they can stay here. There are plenty of rooms in the house, and Wanwan and the others can stay in their courtyard too."
Cheng Jinyan kept refusing, but Xu Zhe couldn't stand it anymore and waved his hand, "Go pick them up. I haven't seen your grandparents in a long time either. Let's get together. We old folks have things to talk about. What's there to talk about with you? Let your grandparents come and keep me company for a couple of days. What's there to be embarrassed about?"
Song Lanzhi nodded, "I consider Uncle Xu my elder. I like my home to be lively, which is why I gathered everyone together. Your grandparents are lonely at home, so why don't you come and join in the fun?"
Cheng Jinyan had no choice but to nod and go with Lu Feng to pick up the person.
"Thank you for your help."
"Why are you being so polite? Logically, I should be calling you 'brother' to Wanwan, there's no need to be so formal."
Cheng Jinyan smiled but didn't say anything.
“I know I’m sometimes too busy and neglect Wanwan. You’re the one who’s been comforting and guiding her. I haven’t had a chance to properly thank you.”
"Don't say that. I treat Wanwan like a younger sister. This is what I should do."
The two remained silent until they picked up the two elderly people and got into the car, at which point Lu Feng said a few joking words.
The New Year celebrations were incredibly lively, and Xu Zhe even detained Cheng Jinyan for four days before releasing him.
After the New Year, Lu Anyang will have to prepare to go to the United States. It will take at least a few months to sort things out there.
The company's affairs were temporarily handed over to Lin Wanwan. Actually, there wasn't much to handle, as Lu Anyang had already arranged most of the company's matters.
So Lin Wanwan didn't find it too difficult.
