"My dear granddaughter, how are you feeling? Is there anything bothering you?"
Liu Sanmei opened the door and saw that the children were asleep. She quietly asked about her beloved granddaughter.
"Grandma, I'm recovering well, and I don't feel uncomfortable at all now."
She wouldn't lie to the old lady about this; otherwise, if she got nervous, it might be even more serious than Gu Changfeng's situation.
"It's alright."
Shen Yongjun breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them cared for Ruan Qiushui for a while before turning to look at the two little ones.
"Who's the eldest, and who's the second eldest?"
They looked almost identical, and since they were both dressed, Shen Yongjun and Liu Sanmei couldn't be distinguished.
"This is my older brother, his name is Gu Zhenghe."
"This is my younger sister, her name is Gu Wantang."
Ruan Qiushui pointed to the two children, and seeing that they had opened their eyes, she placed them directly in Liu Sanmei and Shen Yongjun's hands.
"Oh my little darling, it smells so sweet and milky, it smells so good."
Shen Yongjun carefully held Da Bao and affectionately tapped his forehead.
"My little darling, you'll definitely be as beautiful as your mother when you grow up."
Liu Sanmei thought Xiaobao looked just like her granddaughter; he was born with all the best features.
"Little Ruan, this is a birth gift that your grandfather and I prepared for the children. Please don't find it offensive."
Liu Sanmei put Xiaobao down and took out two pure gold peace lock necklaces from her bag.
"This is for Da Bao, and this is for Xiao Bao."
"Look how pretty and festive my little darling looks wearing it."
Liu Sanmei hung the gold lock with the dragon pattern on Da Bao and the one with the phoenix pattern on Xiao Bao.
Ever since they found out their beloved granddaughter was pregnant, she and her husband started making preparations.
Aside from knowing that she was carrying twins, she didn't know whether the babies were boys or girls.
So he made two preparations and secretly took a large gold bar to an old goldsmith to make two dragon-patterned peace locks and two phoenix-patterned peace locks.
He Ruyi has given birth to three children for her son, and she doesn't even know if the remaining two peace locks will be enough.
The thought of having many children and grandchildren and a prosperous family made Liu Sanmei extremely happy.
"Grandma, this is too expensive."
Ruan Qiushui weighed the two gold locks in her hands; they must have weighed at least half a pound of gold.
"Alright, your grandma's been showing off, hurry up and put those things away."
Shen Yongjun helped remove the gold lock; it's best not to be blatant at this stage.
"Your grandma and I also prepared big red envelopes for the children."
Shen Yongjun took out two large red envelopes from his pocket and handed them to Ruan Qiushui.
"Grandpa, I'll accept the gold lock, but I don't need the money."
With that thickness, it must cost at least five thousand yuan.
This is probably the old couple's retirement money for self-defense; she can't accept it.
"What, you accepted your grandmother's gold lock, but you won't accept your grandfather's money?"
"Are you disregarding this old man? Don't you want to acknowledge me as your grandfather anymore?"
Chen Yongjun was in a hurry.
This is his blessing to the younger generation, why wouldn't he accept it?
"Get your attitude straight and stop making veiled accusations."
Liu Sanmei pinched Chen Yongjun's ear.
What the hell are you talking about? Do you think I don't know how to insult me indirectly?
"Alright, alright, then I'll thank your great-grandfather on behalf of the two children."
Left with no other choice, Ruan Qiushui had to accept the red envelope.
"Grandpa and Grandma, have some water."
Gu Changfeng put away the things the two elders had brought and made them two cups of tea.
"Ruan girl, you should rest first. Your grandfather and I will go downstairs now."
The granddaughter has seen it, the baby has seen it, now it's time for them to rest.
Gu Changfeng brought the tea and led the two elders to the living room.
Xie Xiuying and Gu Guangrong are in the living room right now, and they can chat with the two elders.
"Changfeng, please arrange a room for Zhang Ma, and if possible, also arrange a room for Xiao Li."
If there aren't enough rooms, let Xiao Li stay in town and commute daily.
"Grandpa, you see, Aunt Zhang lives upstairs with us. How about Comrade Li makes do with staying in our old house for now?"
The downstairs storage room can't be cleaned up anytime soon, so it's better to just move into the old house.
The old house has many rooms, not only his old room, but also the rooms of his two older brothers, which have all been vacated.
"Okay, then you can arrange it as you see fit."
He had Xiao Li drive this time, which would be more convenient if he needed a car on weekdays.
After arranging the rooms for the two of them, Gu Changfeng went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
We have plenty of meat in the refrigerator, so cooking a big meal tonight shouldn't be a problem.
After packing her personal belongings, Zhang Ma went into the kitchen to help.
When it comes to cooking, Gu Changfeng's skills are still no match for Zhang Ma's.
Watching Zhang Ma efficiently prepare and cook the dishes, Gu Changfeng realized he couldn't help, so he simply went to take care of the children.
…
Ruan Qiushui ate dinner in her room.
Xie Xiuying and Chen Yongjun, along with Liu Sanmei, insisted that she stay in confinement after childbirth. Not only did she not leave her room, but she also avoided getting out of bed as much as possible.
Gu Changfeng cleaned up the dishes his wife had finished eating, changed the baby's diaper, and then went downstairs to eat.
Now that the children have eaten and drunk their fill, they are all wide-eyed, babbling and kicking their arms and legs, which is very amusing.
Xie Xiuying was worried that her daughter-in-law wouldn't be able to take care of the child alone, so she quickly ate dinner and ran upstairs.
He Chunhua and Zhou Lan also came along.
"Third sister-in-law, these are bibs I embroidered for the two children. Please don't think my needlework is bad."
Zhou Lan handed the red "Fu" character bellyband she had prepared to Ruan Qiushui, not knowing whether her third sister-in-law would like it.
This cloth was a bright red cotton fabric that she had saved up for several months with cloth coupons and visited the supply and marketing cooperative several times before finally buying it.
"Third sister-in-law, these are hats I made for the two children. Take a look and see if they fit."
He Chunhua also took out the gifts for the two children.
A couple of days ago, someone from the brigade went up the mountain and brought back two foxes.
The meat was eaten, but the fox pelts were useless; they were prepared to be exchanged for food.
She thought the fur was excellent and would be perfect for making two small hats. So she discussed it with her husband and they traded it for ten pounds of rice.
"Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, the gifts you sent are exactly what I wanted. I thank you on behalf of the two children."
The thoughtfulness is truly precious, and the gift was perfectly chosen; it's clear that care was put into it.
Both bibs and hats are incredibly practical for children.
"No need to thank me, I'm glad you like it."
Zhou Lan and He Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Ruan Qiushui accept the gift with a smile.
Ruan Qiushui, as the third aunt, was truly devoted to her son.
In the spirit of reciprocity, one should naturally put some thought into giving a birthday gift.
Zhou Lan exchanged a few words with He Chunhua, then went downstairs to find her husband.
They were already quite drunk when they came up; I hope they don't end up lying under the table now.
