Liu Pei spoke first, his voice loud and sincere: "Aunt, no matter how busy we are, we have to make time! On such an important day, how can we not come to see Xiaolan off? You also know that Xiaolan is gone and we don't know when she will be back. We have to come to see her off and show our love."
Liu Feng nodded vigorously and agreed, "Yes, Auntie. Xiaolan and I grew up together and have a deep bond. We couldn't forget to see her off. We even applied for a car from our company to pick her up at the station."
At this time, Zeng Qiang heard the voices of Liu Pei and Liu Feng, so he walked out of the house holding Xiaobao. At this time, Xiaobao's face still had tears, and he twitched from time to time.
Liu Pei stepped forward and gently pinched Xiaobao's face, saying, "Oh! Xiaobao, you're crying. This is not like a little man..."
Zeng Qiang said in a somewhat accusing tone, "The bureau is in a rush to get a car. How did you two get one? This isn't good!"
Liu Pei said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zeng! We have a reason for using the car, and we won't cause you any trouble."
Yu Wenlin took the net bag they handed over and said a little embarrassedly, "Just come if you want to. You bought so many things. It really cost you a lot of money."
Liu Pei and Liu Feng smiled and said, "It's just a small thing."
Yu Wenlin carried the gifts and said with a smile, "Please come in, my daughter is packing her luggage, I have to go and help her, you two can do whatever you want!"
After saying that, she walked back, but after taking two steps, she found that the two people did not follow her into the yard. She subconsciously stopped and slowly turned around.
She saw her husband, Mr. Zeng, standing at the door, his back straight, a kind smile on his face, talking eagerly to Liu Pei and the others.
Yu Wenlin stood quietly in the middle of the yard, looking at everything in front of him. He said with some displeasure, "Lao Zeng, why are you still standing at the door? You're just leaning there like a door god. Don't block the guests out! Don't forget that you're holding Xiaobao. It's cold outside. Don't let the child get cold. Let them both come in! Let's talk it over in the house."
Zeng Qiang was talking excitedly with Liu Pei and Liu Feng at the door. When he heard his wife calling him in the yard, it was as if the pause button was suddenly pressed, and he immediately stopped talking about the topic.
He scratched the back of his head, a simple smile on his face, and said to the guests, "Come in! Otherwise your aunt will criticize me again. She is a very considerate person and is afraid of neglecting you."
The three people standing at the gate exchanged glances, their eyes filled with tacit understanding and laughter. Liu Feng's mouth curled up slightly, revealing his white teeth. Liu Pei and Zeng Qiang also grinned, and they laughed silently.
Afterwards, Liu Pei and Liu Feng followed Zeng Qiang closely and walked towards the house together.
The two of them were busy along the way, barking like puppies and making faces, constantly teasing Xiaobao, who was held in Zeng Qiang's arms. Xiaobao's rosy cheeks resembled a ripe peach, making him even more adorable. His bright eyes narrowed into two crescents in laughter, and he occasionally let out a crisp "chuckling" laugh. His innocent appearance was truly heartwarming.
When Yu Wenlin saw the three of them walking towards him, he turned around with peace of mind.
She suddenly thought of something and shouted towards the house, "Chengcheng, go tell your little sister that Liu Feng and Liu Pei are here."
"Mom, I understand."
A soft voice echoed into Yu Wenlin's ears. Strangely, it didn't come from inside the house. Yu Wenlin's brows furrowed in confusion.
She began to wonder: Why does this sound like it's coming from outside? Is Chengcheng not in the house? Full of doubts, he slowly turned his head and looked towards the gate of the compound.
Zeng Cheng was standing at the door, holding Dabao tightly in his arms. The little one's chubby face was rosy, and he was looking at the people in the yard with his big, watery eyes. He was particularly happy when he saw Xiaobao, and his face was full of smiles. He was holding two lollipops in his two little hands and waving them in the air.
Zeng Cheng's other hand was struggling to hold up a net bag. The bag was stuffed full and looked heavy. The things inside collided with each other, making slight noises.
Zeng Cheng's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, and sweat kept rolling down his cheeks...
Yu Wenlin asked in confusion, "Chengcheng, weren't you home? Why did you come back from outside? Where did you go with Dabao?"
Zeng Cheng said hurriedly, "Isn't my little sister leaving? I went to the department store specifically to buy snacks for her to eat on the way."
When Yu Wenlin heard this, a smile appeared on his face. He said, "Thank goodness you have a conscience. You still care about your sister."
Zeng Cheng pouted and said, "If I didn't feel sorry for my little sister, you wouldn't have twisted my head off and hit me."
When Yu Wenlin heard him say that, he also laughed and said, "Am I so powerful in your eyes?"
Zeng Cheng shouted, "Mom, am I your biological child? My hands and arms are sore now, why don't you help me?"
After hearing what he said, Liu Pei and others finally reacted and ran over to take the things from Zeng Cheng's hands.
Zeng Cheng saw them coming over and muttered, "Two brothers, you only thought of me now, that's not right! You really have no vision."
After saying that, he placed the weight in Liu Pei's hand heavily, and Liu Pei almost couldn't catch it. Zeng Cheng glanced at him and said, "Brother, this weight is quite heavy!"
After saying that, he swung his arms and said, "You don't know, I have to hold Dabao in one hand and carry all these things with the other hand. I'm really exhausted."
Yu Wenlin said in a reproachful tone, "When you go out to buy things, don't take Dabao with you! You asked for this, who can you blame?"
At this time, Wang Xiaolan came out of the house carrying her luggage. Seeing Liu Feng and Liu Pei, she said, "Oh! I'm sorry to have disturbed you two busy people! I'm so embarrassed."
Liu Pei said: "You are my sister, how can I not come?"
Liu Feng said: "I am your childhood friend, so I should come to see you off."
Liu Pei said: "We specially borrowed a car to take you to the meeting point at the train station."
Wang Xiaolan looked at Zeng Cheng and Dabao and said gratefully, "Thank you, big brother."
Zeng Cheng said, "What's there to thank me for? I'm your elder brother after all."
At this time, when Dabao saw that his mother was going on a long journey, his little mouth was tightly pursed, like a small dam about to burst, and tears kept rolling in his eyes, and could burst out at any time.
