Aunt Yu raised her head without hesitation and drank the glass of fragrant wine in her hand.
His movements were so quick and decisive that not even a drop of wine was left in the glass.
Speaking of Aunt Yu’s past experiences, it is really sad.
Because she had not been able to give birth to a son, her parents-in-law were very picky and looked down on her, and even her husband gradually began to dislike her.
The most unexpected thing is that they were so cruel as to have someone take her away from home and go out to make a living, just to make money to support their nephew.
Fortunately, there is always a way out. Aunt Yu has superb cooking skills, and she is very clean and straightforward. In addition, she has a gentle and docile personality, so many families are willing to hire her to help with housework or cooking.
However, even so, no family would ever invite her to dine with them.
Even when he returned to his biological daughter's home, the situation was not much better.
Every time there is a family gathering at her daughter's house, she is always the only one busy in the kitchen. By the time she finally prepares all the food, everyone else has already eaten and drunk their fill, and all that is left for her are some leftovers.
But even so, she had no complaints. She ate the leftovers silently and then started to busy herself with other things.
Recalling the frustrating days in the past, Aunt Yu looked at the lively and warm scene before her, and couldn't help feeling an indescribable emotion in her heart.
Once upon a time, she was so eager to be able to sit upright at the dining table emitting tempting aromas like other families, share delicious food with her loved ones, chat happily and laugh.
However, such a seemingly ordinary wish was as unattainable as the farthest star in the sky for her at that time.
But now, everything is different.
At this moment, she could not only sit at the table safely and enjoy this rare reunion time, but she was also warmly received by the host. She was flattered by this treatment.
In the past, this was something she wouldn't even dare to dream of.
Aunt Yu tried her best to suppress the tears that were about to burst out, and forced a smile, and said softly to Qin Wan and the people around her:
"Thank you, Xiao Qin, thank you, Xiao Lu. Thank you so much. Actually, taking care of these children is my job, it's not worth mentioning."
Although she said this, she knew clearly in her heart that without the trust and care given by Qin Wan's family, how could she have such a happy and fulfilling moment?
At this time, Qin Wan responded sincerely:
"Aunt Yu, please don't be so polite with us. I can see that you truly love these four adorable little ones as if they were your own grandchildren. From now on, we are truly a family!"
What Qin Wan said was not insincere compliments, but a true expression of his heart.
In fact, one can easily detect the deep love in Aunt Yu's eyes when she looks at the quadruplets.
Her eyes were filled with endless tenderness and compassion, which was both amiable and approachable; and no matter when and where the children needed her, Aunt Yu would always appear first and take care of them.
This selfless dedication alone was enough to make Lu Yu and Qin Wan feel grateful, and they sincerely offered her a glass of wine full of respect and gratitude.
Everyone had a great meal and drank their fill. Even the little ones had a bigger meal than usual.
Because Lu Yu and Qin Wan were seen dipping the juice from the dishes on the table with chopsticks and carefully putting it into their mouths for them to taste.
Afterwards, he would happily pick up some and gently feed them to those cute little guys.
Not only that, they also specially prepared exquisite complementary foods to feed these little guys.
Of course, the children can’t eat dumplings today. After all, they are only six months old and still too young.
What they ate was a bowl of steaming hot, sticky millet porridge.
A few days ago, Aunt Yu carefully cooked a pot of fragrant millet porridge. Qin Wan scooped up some rice porridge with a spoon and fed it into the children's mouths bit by bit.
Unexpectedly, after just one try, these children fell deeply in love with this sweet and delicious millet porridge! Sometimes, they even refused to drink their favorite milk powder.
Whenever it’s time for dinner, these little guys would blink their big watery eyes and stare at the food on the table, their faces full of anticipation.
If they are not allowed to drink a few sips, their little faces will instantly become gloomy and unhappy.
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Zhou Ju, who lived next door, came to Qin Wan’s house happily and knocked on the door gently.
As soon as Qin Wan opened the door, Zhou Ju, with an excited look on her face, couldn't wait to grab Qin Wan's hand and said:
"Sister, there's a wonderful performance at the military auditorium tonight! Let's go together!"
After hearing this, Qin Wan showed a trace of embarrassment on her face. She smiled and shook her head and declined politely:
"Sister-in-law, I'm so sorry, I won't go. These four little ones should go to bed on time, and I have to stay and take care of them."
As she spoke, she looked tenderly at the children playing in the house.
Aunt Yu said, "Xiao Qin, you go and see them. I can take care of them at home."
Qin Wan shook her head: "Aunt, you go, I really don't want to go."
Aunt Yu repeatedly expressed that she did not want to watch the show and asked Qin Wan to go and watch the show without worry, but Qin Wan still firmly refused. She said:
"Auntie, I appreciate your kindness. I saw the cultural performance last year. This is your first time here, so you should go and see something new."
Seeing that Qin Wan really didn't want to go, Aunt Yu went to find other old ladies.
In fact, an old lady approached her a few days ago and suggested that they go to see a cultural performance together, but considering her four children, she did not agree.
Lu Yu similarly found an excuse not to go. He claimed to be at home taking care of the children, but deep down, he had no interest in the troupe's performances.
Moreover, every time he participated in such activities in the past, there would always be some actors from the art troupe pointing fingers and criticizing him.
In the past, he didn't care about this. He always felt that as long as he behaved properly, it didn't matter what they said.
However, the situation is different now. If I continue to let those people gossip about me, and if it accidentally reaches my wife Qin Wan's ears, she will definitely be unhappy.
So, this time he couldn't join in the fun no matter what.
In the end, only Aunt Yu went to the military auditorium alone with great enthusiasm.
