The moment the old man from the Li family entered, he spotted Xiao Yanbao secretly wiping away tears. He walked over anxiously, drawing everyone's attention.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Upon hearing his grandfather's voice, Xiao Yanbao quickly wiped away his tears. He then heard his grandfather shout angrily at the boys standing next to him.
"Why did you brats make Yanbao cry?"
The brothers looked at each other, then remained silent, while Li Qirui, Liang Xunling, and other adults quickly came over.
Xiao Yanbao turned around in a bit of a panic and called out to his grandfather:
"Grandpa, my brothers didn't bully me. I was touched by their gifts..."
Grandpa Li picked up little Yanbao, glanced at his grandsons surrounding him, snorted, and then looked at little Yanbao softly:
"I'm just warning them, all those brats combined aren't as fragrant as my Yanbao!"
When Zhong Jingyi, who had just walked over, heard the old man's words, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. She was naturally very happy that the old man treated Xiao Yanbao so well.
"Dad, you're spoiling Yanbao rotten, and you hold her all the time."
As soon as Zhong Jingyi finished speaking, the old man took Xiao Yanbao to the side and spoke as if he was sulking.
"Who said Yanbao will be spoiled? I'm going to hold Yanbao forever, and you're all not going to try to take him from me anymore!"
The Li brothers laughed when they heard their grandfather's words. Ever since Zhong Jingyi brought Xiao Yanbao back to the Li family, the grandfather and grandmother's daily moods have improved a lot, and the family often gets together, making the overall atmosphere at home much better.
Just then, Li Qirui's phone rang. After answering the call, Li Qirui quietly gave the old man a hand gesture, and then went out.
The old lady of the Li family, who had not appeared before, walked in from outside the villa. Just as everyone was about to greet her, the old lady put her index finger to her lips, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Then the old lady tiptoed up behind the old man and gently patted Xiao Yanbao on the back.
"Yanbao, look!"
The old lady was carrying a dreamcatcher that she had woven herself from feathers, with colorful little bells tied to it.
When Xiao Yanbao turned around and saw the dreamcatcher in her grandmother's hand, her eyes lit up instantly. The little girl had no resistance to things made of feathers.
Wow! It's so beautiful!
Little Yanbao reached out and took the dreamcatcher from his grandmother's hand. Then, his grandmother stretched out her arm to take Little Yanbao away from his grandfather's arms.
However, the old man disagreed, and his tone was rather unpleasant as he frowned at his wife.
What are you doing?
However, the old lady didn't care about the old man's expression and tone at all. She directly hugged Xiao Yanbao and took him into her arms.
The tug-of-war between the two made Little Yanbao laugh, while the old man stood angrily to the side, glancing at the living room door every now and then.
"Who told you not to prepare a gift? We all have gifts for Yanbao, why should you have to keep holding Yanbao and being good to her?"
The old lady had been asking her husband to prepare a gift, but he always refused. Now she's seized the opportunity to complain.
At the same time, the old lady turned around and looked at little Yanbao, who was constantly shaking the dreamcatcher, and deliberately spoke to her sulking husband:
"If Grandpa doesn't prepare a gift for Yanbao, then from now on, Yanbao will only let Grandma hold him and won't let him hold him anymore, okay?"
When Xiao Yanbao heard his grandma say that he wouldn't let his grandpa hold him anymore, he quickly turned around, looking unhappy.
"No, I like Grandpa and Grandma!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yanbao's words, the old man burst into laughter, quite pleased with himself.
However, the old lady continued to complain about her husband. Listening to her grumbling, the old man of the Li family snorted and then shouted loudly outside.
"Li Qirui! You have three minutes to be back!"
As the old man finished speaking, Li Qirui pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing the old man's discomfiture, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The old man frowned, glaring angrily at Li Qirui, and began to scold him in a very displeased manner.
"What are you laughing at? Did you bring the things or not?"
Li Qirui then stopped smiling, quickly walked up to the old man, and placed two small gift boxes tied with bows in front of him.
"That's more like it!"
The old man took the gift box, walked up to Xiao Yanbao with a smile, and stuffed the gift box into Xiao Yanbao's hands without saying a word.
"My dear Yanbao! Look at the gift Grandpa gave you, hmph!"
After saying this, the old man snorted at his wife again, and at the same time, he reached out and snatched Xiao Yanbao away, just like his wife had done before.
"Seventh Brother, please hold this for me, don't break it!"
While Grandpa was holding him, Xiao Yanbao was worried that the dreamcatcher in his hand would be broken, so he hurriedly called for Li Mujun to help him take the dreamcatcher. After Li Mujun took the dreamcatcher, Xiao Yanbao curiously opened the gift box that Grandpa had given him.
The moment the box was opened, everyone noticed Xiao Yanbao's happiness. Xiao Yanbao took out a hair clip with a butterfly on it from the box.
"Yanyan has this hair clip too! That's great!"
As if showing off, the old man held little Yanbao, who was holding a hair clip and making silvery laughter, and spun her around in front of everyone again and again.
"And one more, Yanbao, I heard from Muxing that your good friend also likes this hair clip, so why don't you give the other one to your good friend?"
"Okay! Okay! Thank you, Grandpa!"
Little Yanbao held the two hair clips with great delight, her little mouth constantly exclaiming how wonderful they were.
It's clear that Xiao Yanbao is very satisfied with the gift she received today and is overjoyed.
Seeing the old man so smug, the old lady huffed and puffed at everyone, saying:
"Look how smug he is, I'm not letting him eat tonight!"
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Xiao Yanbao became unhappy, turned to look at his grandmother, and pouted.
"Let Grandpa eat, Yan Yan will eat with Grandpa!"
Seeing that Xiao Yanbao was serious, everyone pursed their lips and chuckled, while the old man became even more smug, constantly praising Xiao Yanbao.
"Dad! I'm ready, shall we start now?"
As Li Qiwen entered, she saw the old man holding Xiao Yanbao and smiling proudly in front of everyone. Not knowing what had just happened, she hesitated and spoke again with some questions in her mind.
"How about we wait a bit?"
The old man picked up Xiao Yanbao and ran out of the living room in a flash, speaking to everyone as he ran.
"Let's go watch the fireworks! Grandpa has arranged a fireworks show for Xiaoyanbao!"
Fireworks show? The boys got excited and followed the old man outside. At first, the old lady was reluctant to go out to watch, but Zhong Jingyi and Liang Xunling pulled her into the yard.
