"Dad, if you're looking forward to seeing your great-grandson, I'll help you outside."
He Zhenyuan wanted to help him, but Old Man He shook his hand off.
He snorted coldly: "Who said I wanted to see my great-grandson? I am a great-grandfather. How can I go to the door to pick up my great-grandson and great-granddaughter?"
"Does he still have any dignity as a patriarch?"
Mr. He slammed his crutch on the ground and scolded He Zhenyuan: "It's a joke for the people in our compound to see this."
"I've already spread the word that Ating is coming back with his wife and triplets today. Now our He family has become very prominent. All eyes in the compound are on us!"
He Zhenyuan wanted to say, are you overthinking it?
Old man, don't flatter yourself.
But when I glanced at the bushes outside the house, I saw a head poking out and looking over here.
At first glance, he seems to be a spy sent by those old guys who likes to compete with his father.
He Zhenyuan was familiar with this operation and was speechless for a while.
Mr. He's words were really tough, but his body was honest as hell. He heard the sound of a jeep driving outside, and he said that as an elder he couldn't go to the door to greet his great-grandson, so he stood up suddenly.
This time he didn't even need his crutches. He strode towards the door with his head held high, like a soldier being inspected. He looked so majestic.
This operation confused He Zhenyuan.
Afraid that he would fall, Wei Shuhua and Gu Min, who heard the noise and came out, helped him up together.
"No need to help. It's useless to help."
Old Mr. He pushed away his daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law who came to support him and grinned at the stopped jeep.
Thinking that as the head of the family, he had to be dignified, he suppressed the smile on his face and put on a serious look.
“I’m back!”
As soon as He Ting opened the car door, the old man cleared his throat with a cough and said, "You still remember to come back."
He Ting was quite moved when he heard this.
I thought the old man wasn't as stubborn as he said in the letter, and I still missed him a lot.
As a result, Mr. He looked impatient and looked behind him.
"Where is my granddaughter-in-law? Where are my great-grandchildren?"
Mr. He pushed aside He Ting who was blocking the road and looked into the jeep.
Lu Baiwei was about to step out of the jeep when suddenly an old man's head squeezed over. When he saw her, his expression was a little serious, but he was smiling with a lot of wrinkles on his face.
Lu Baiwei: “…”
Is this the He family’s strange welcome ceremony?
Looking at the old man who looked a bit like a naughty boy, Lu Baiwei felt very close to him. She thought of her grandfather.
Lu Baiwei called out sweetly, "Hello, Grandpa!"
Old Man He felt relaxed all over.
He sighed heavily, "Get off the car and have a rest. Are you tired from the journey?"
"Grandpa, I'm not tired."
Not only Mr. He was anxiously leaning towards the jeep.
He Zhenyuan and his wife, who missed their grandchildren, and little Ranzi He Yunqi's mother Gu Min, all leaned over and wanted to get into the jeep.
Lu Baiwei wondered what the scene would be like if several heads squeezed in through the car window at the same time?
It was too tiring to take the train all the way. After getting on the jeep, the sleepy He Yunqi Xiaoranzi closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep again.
Lu Baiwei saw that everyone was waiting, and He Ting had already reached into the car window and picked up a child in each hand.
She hugged Xiao Hanzi and quickly called out to people: "Xiao Qi, Ranran, wake up quickly, we are home."
Xiao Ranzi hummed in confusion.
He Yunqi heard Lu Baiwei shouting that she had arrived home and forced himself to wake up.
He stood up dazedly and wiped his eyes: "Aunt, are you home so soon?"
"Great grandfather!"
"Grandpa, grandma."
"Mom, Xiao Qi misses you so much."
He Yunqi wiped his eyes and slipped out of the car, cheering excitedly.
Ranran was awakened by the sound.
Without Lu Baiwei urging her, she climbed down obediently and threw herself into Gu Min's arms.
Lu Baiwei got out of the car holding Xiao Hanzi, and He Ting introduced them to her: "This is uncle, this is aunt, and this is sister-in-law."
He Ting introduced one and Lu Baiwei called one.
Gu Min picked up her daughter Xiao Ranzi and greeted Lu Baiwei enthusiastically: "You have worked hard on the journey, sister-in-law, come in quickly."
"You don't know how much your family is looking forward to your return."
"We had been communicating in the northwest before, and I was wondering what kind of person could subdue A-Ting."
Gu Min leaned close to her affectionately and said, "Now that I've seen her, I know who she is. She's my brother's wife."
Seeing that He Yunqi's little Ranzi was well taken care of and had grown a lot taller, Gu Min was grateful to Lu Baiwei.
After kissing Xiao Ranzi, he put her down and held her hand. Gu Min pulled Lu Baiwei into the house with a warm face, and thanked her for taking care of He Yunqi and Xiao Ranzi for two years and raising the two children well.
The other two men in the He family, He Zhenyuan and He Hua, helped He Ting carry his luggage.
The room they lived in had been cleaned up long ago.
The room that He Ting used to live in at home was too small. Considering that Lu Baiwei would have to take care of triplets, He Zhenyuan and Wei Shuhua simply vacated the master room.
As soon as she entered the two-story building of the He family, Lu Baiwei had a clear understanding of the layout of the house.
When He Ting reached the door, he paused, then followed Gu Min and Wei Shuhua into the house. Lu Baiwei guessed that the He family had vacated a large room for her to live in.
“This room is so spacious!”
"Aunt, sister-in-law, should He Ting and I move back to his old room?"
It was actually Mr. He's idea to ask He Zhenyuan and Wei Shuhua to vacate the main room.
Wei Shuhua welcomed He Ting back with Lu Baiwei and the triplets. In order to settle the whole family, she even went back to her parents' home to find a solution due to financial difficulties.
However, Wei Shuhua was actually uncomfortable with the old man's favoritism and asking her and her husband to give up the big room.
Lu Baiwei did not accept it calmly. She noticed something was wrong and suggested moving back to He Ting's previous room, which made Wei Shuhua feel much better.
She was also worried that the wife He Ting married from the countryside would not understand the ways of the world. Lu Baiwei had this kind of foresight and knew how to be humble, so Wei Shuhua looked up to her.
"Weiwei, you guys can live in peace."
Wei Shuhua praised Lu Baiwei: "I discussed with your uncle, thinking that you would have to take care of triplets, so living in a larger room would be more convenient for taking care of the children."
In order to reassure Lu Baiwei, Wei Shuhua glanced at He Yunqi and Xiao Ranzi who were peeking out of the door and waved to them.
He Yunqi and Xiao Ranzi went into the house.
Xiao Ranzi was used to getting along with Lu Baiwei, and even hugged her waist.
Wei Shuhua touched He Yunqi's little head and said with a smile: "Weiwei, Xiao Qi and Ranran are both very lucky because of your care."
"We're a family, so let's not be polite, okay?"
Wei Shuhua smiled and told Lu Baiwei: "Hurry up and pack your things and put them in the closet. Ask Ating to bring you some water so you can take a hot bath. We'll have dinner soon. I'll go help Amin cook first."
The triplets were asleep in the jeep and were carried out of the car by He Ting and Lu Baiwei.
As early as knowing that Lu Baiwei and He Ting were returning to Beijing, Wei Shuhua and Gu Min had already prepared a wooden stroller for the child.
As soon as he entered the house, He Ting put the triplets into the stroller and put them to sleep in a row, then went into the house to settle down with Lu Baiwei.
