On this day, Qin Wan sat elegantly on the exquisite carved pearwood chair in the living room, gently shaking a small and exquisite rattle in her hand, teasing four cute little babies sitting in a circle.
From time to time, the children's laughter, as clear as silver bells, came one after another, filling the entire room.
At the same time, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu were singing in unison and vividly telling the old stories in the village that had been forgotten for many years.
I only heard Aunt Zhang say excitedly:
"At that time, my family finally saved enough money to build a new house. We were so happy! We were planning how to decorate the new home and how to live a wonderful life in the future..."
At this time, the warm and soft sunlight penetrated the thin clouds and fell on the ground like golden threads, forming patterns of interlaced light and shadow.
This quiet and peaceful scene adds a touch of warmth and laziness to this seemingly ordinary day.
Qin Wan listened quietly to the narration of the two aunts, and a wave of emotion surged in her heart. She sighed softly:
"Although people at that time were poor and lived a hard life, the relationships between people were so sincere and deep, and the atmosphere was filled with a strong sense of human kindness."
At this moment, Big Head Grandma's iconic high-pitched voice suddenly rang out:
"What? Yanhong gave birth? Is it a boy or a girl? Sister Li, tell me quickly!"
Big Head Grandma's voice was full of surprise and curiosity, as if this sudden news was more shocking than any legendary story.
After hearing Big Head Grandma's question, Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu stopped talking at the same time and looked out the door, listening attentively to what she would say next. Aunt Yu's eyes revealed a strong interest in the matter, mixed with a hint of envy.
Qin Wan, who was originally concentrating on playing with the child, was now attracted by the child's attention. He pricked up his ears involuntarily, waiting with great anticipation for the follow-up information about Yanhong's delivery.
Yanhong could be said to be the first close friend she had met since she entered the family compound who had genuinely helped her. The friendship between them was incredibly deep, as close as real sisters.
Therefore, she was naturally concerned about Yanhong's current situation and was eager to know all the news about her friend.
Just at this time, someone who knew the situation told Big Head Grandma.
"They're twins, a boy and a girl. Oh my, what a blessing! I have a son and a daughter at once. This life can be considered a perfect success!"
When the big-headed grandma heard the news, her eyes, which had been narrowed into slits, suddenly widened to the extreme, like two round copper bells.
Her face was filled with unconcealed surprise, and she exclaimed in amazement:
"Oh my goodness! This is truly incredible! I'm afraid smoke is about to come out of the grave of the Ge family's ancestors! Some people say that Yanhong has been a blessed girl since she was a child. When everyone said this before, I was a little skeptical, but now it seems that it's absolutely true!"
When Qin Wan, who was listening through the wall, learned that Yanhong had successfully given birth to a pair of lovely twins, a boy and a girl, joy surged in his heart like a tide.
A huge smile broke out on her face, and her eyes sparkled with excitement and joy.
Deep in her heart, Qin Wan silently prayed for Yanhong, wishing that this happiness would always be with her and her family.
She sincerely hopes that Yanhong can always be immersed in happiness, go through every warm and beautiful moment with the children, and write a wonderful chapter of their lives together.
Looking back, Wang Yanhong was unable to conceive for more than ten years after her marriage, which had caused her great distress. However, luck eventually favored this kind-hearted woman.
After Qin Wan's careful treatment, Yanhong finally became pregnant successfully. What was even more surprising was that this baby was a dragon and a phoenix.
Speaking of Yanhong's husband, he is indeed a role model.
Back then, facing tremendous pressure from his mother, who asked him to divorce Yanhong, who was unable to have children, he remained steadfast in his deep affection for his wife and rejected his mother's unreasonable request without hesitation.
Now, they have finally reaped the fruits of their love - two lovely babies.
Aunt Yu beside her was filled with emotion and kept muttering:
"Speaking of Yanhong's husband, they are truly such good people! Back when Yanhong couldn't have children, her wicked mother-in-law kept forcing her son to divorce her! Fortunately, Yanhong's husband stood firm and refused to agree. Look at them now, isn't it true that the clouds have cleared and the moon has appeared! They got two precious babies at once, what a blessing!"
Aunt Yu shook her head gently as she spoke, her words filled with both blessings for Yanhong's family and a hint of helplessness and sighs about her own life situation. She had only given birth to one daughter, who had been spoiled and brought up, and who turned out to be an ungrateful child.
Aunt Zhang nodded in agreement, her tone more emotional:
"Yes, these days, having a healthy child is the greatest blessing. Unlike my youngest son, he's almost 20 and still not in a hurry to get married. It's really worrying."
Qin Wan smiled slightly when he heard this, and thought to himself:
Everyone’s life has its own difficulties and joys. Yanhong has her own luck, but although Aunt Yu is unfortunate, she is self-reliant and never complains about herself. Who can say that their life will be better than hers?
Just when everyone was lost in thought, each with their own thoughts, suddenly, a clear cry came from the youngest and fourth brothers.
The sound seemed like they were expressing their dissatisfaction in a unique way, as if protesting that the adults were only concerned with their own problems and completely ignoring the existence of these little guys.
Hearing the crying, the attention of the adults who had been distracted was suddenly drawn over.
Qin Wan quickly picked up the rattle beside her and shook it gently, while whistling happily.
The brisk rhythmic sound immediately stopped the tears of the crying little kids, and innocent smiles bloomed on their faces.
Seeing that the children were finally coaxed into submission, Qin Wan slowly stood up. She smiled at Aunt Zhang and Aunt Yu beside her, then said:
"Aunts, please keep an eye on the child. I want to go to Yanhong's house to see what's going on there."
