They were still asleep when Gu Weizhou woke up and went out to see what was going on.
The old woman woke up from her afternoon nap and started tidying up in the kitchen.
She had some spare ribs and meat left, so she marinated them and made dried meat. It was dried in the city and only needed to be exposed to the wind and sun for a few days.
For dinner, Ruan Yunxi said she would invite Sister Sheng's family over for dinner. She would make sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour pork, steamed yellow croaker, salt and pepper shrimp, braised chicken with abalone, garlic cabbage, and hot and sour shredded potatoes.
Ruan Yunxi needs to breastfeed and can't eat spicy food, so she can eat something bland.
The cook was an old nanny; she was a good cook, and the dishes suited Ruan Yunxi's taste.
He also learned to cook Northeastern cuisine, such as sweet and sour pork. His grandmother made it very well, and the sauce was especially good. Gu Weizhou loved it too.
In the evening, they also made mackerel dumplings and sea urchin dumplings. I wonder how many dumplings Ruan Yunxi can eat.
With such a lavish dinner, Sister-in-law Sheng and the others felt a little embarrassed.
Ruan Yunxi said, "We owe this full moon celebration to your help. We'll need your help a lot in the future, so please enjoy your meal!"
Sister-in-law Sheng thought about it and agreed; she would just have to be more attentive to the children in the future.
Little Cherry ate sweet and sour pork, gnawed on sweet and sour spare ribs, and also ate a few mackerel dumplings. After she was full, she went to see her younger siblings. Seeing that they were sleeping, she didn't talk to them or disturb them. Only after she had watched them enough did she play with Little Deer.
When they left, they even took a can of canned yellow peaches with them.
Knowing the children liked it, Ruan Yunxi saw there were still some cans left, and the brother and sister each got a can, which made them very happy.
After her postpartum confinement period ended, Ruan Yunxi mostly stayed in bed to rest. It was windy outside, so she didn't go out much, only occasionally taking a walk in the yard. She spent most of her time at home.
By February, the three babies were not so easy to take care of; the saying "February fussiness" was no joke.
Gu Weizhou is going to training; his paternity leave is over.
Gu Weizhou was worried about the mother and her three children. He looked at the three children and sighed repeatedly.
Ruan Yunxi hugged him and comforted him: "Go to training without worry. There's me, your nanny, and Sister-in-law Sheng at home. We'll definitely take good care of the children and make sure they don't go hungry or suffer any hardship."
"Don't wash the diapers, I'll wash them when I get back." Gu Weizhou knew that even if he was reluctant, he had to get back to training.
Ruan Yunxi nodded.
Gu Weizhou added, "Don't go out unless necessary. The children are too young, and it's windy outside. You're still recovering and your body is weak, so you should rest at home. We'll have a 42-day postpartum period."
"I know, don't worry, I'll take care of myself." Ruan Yunxi kissed him: "Don't miss us too much."
Gu Weizhou nodded, holding her tightly, inhaling her milky scent, which calmed his mind considerably.
Early in the morning, Gu Weizhou woke up without disturbing the mother and her three children.
He went to find Sister-in-law Sheng and said that she was not home today, asking her to come to his house to help out.
Sister-in-law Sheng cooked porridge for the children and nodded, "I know, you can go out with peace of mind."
Gu Weizhou went back and ate the noodles his nanny had cooked for him, the kind with a poached egg. After finishing a big bowl of noodles, Gu Weizhou was full. He went back to see the mother and her four children for a while, and finally kissed Ruan Yunxi on the forehead before heading to the military base.
Once training resumed, Gu Weizhou had no time to think about them at all.
During lunchtime, she would always run back to check on Ruan Yunxi and the others. Ruan Yunxi had Sister-in-law Sheng stay at home for lunch. They had beef noodles for lunch, which were braised by the nanny and were very delicious. Ruan Yunxi ate several slices of beef, as well as bean sprouts and green vegetables.
When he came back, she asked, "Have you eaten? Do you want anything to eat? There are noodles too."
"I haven't eaten yet, let me check on the children!" Gu Weizhou washed his hands, patted off any non-existent dust from his clothes, and then lifted the curtain to look at the three children who had just finished eating and fallen asleep.
Seeing that Ruan Yunxi was sitting still, Sister-in-law Sheng gestured for her to go and check on her.
Ruan Yunxi waved her hand: "No need, just do whatever you want at home. He just can't bear to part with his child, he can't bear to part with his daughter, there's no need to bother him."
Sister-in-law Sheng smiled: "I never expected that the cold-faced Gu Tuanzi would like children so much. I never realized it before."
Ruan Yunxi said proudly, "That's my child. If it were someone else, he definitely wouldn't like it."
Gu Weizhou happened to overhear this and added, "Don't say you don't like him, there's no such person, and no child either."
Ruan Yunxi: "......"
Sister-in-law Sheng: "..."
Where's the promised beef noodles? Why does it taste like dog food?
