Chapter 199: A Short Separation Makes You Happy
The two adults were talking nonsense, so Bai Zihan had to touch his nose and greet Xiaowen and the others: "Xiaowen, Xiaowu, Beibei, hello! Do you remember Uncle Bai? Uncle Bai brought you bullet shells last time."
Xiaowen and the others had grown a little taller than the last time Bai Zihan saw them. They were wearing small sweaters with coats on the outside, and they looked neat and tidy, not at all sloppy.
The three kids still remembered it, so they politely called out, "Hello, Uncle Bai!"
Xiao Wu asked excitedly, "Uncle Bai, Mom said we are going to the military camp to see Uncle Si, so can we watch you guys shoot?"
Bai Zihan smiled and said, "Well, about this... you should ask your fourth uncle."
Fourth Uncle didn’t have time to pay attention to them now. He had been holding his wife for a long time and hadn’t let go yet.
Xia Juanjuan had no choice but to push him away, saying, "Let go quickly, there are so many people watching us!"
That's enough. How come this man is more open-minded than a modern person like her?
Li Zhan had no choice but to let go of his hand and went to look at Yanyan, Yeye and Yaoyao again.
After Bai Zihan greeted Xiaowen and the others, he also went to see the triplets and was reaching out to pick one up.
Compared to the porcelain dolls a few months ago, which would be crushed if you held them with even a little force, the three little ones are now larger porcelain dolls, but more solid.
During the full-moon banquet, Bai Zihan didn't dare to hug her, but now he finally dares to do it!
Unfortunately, before he could touch them, he was stopped by Lizhan: "Hey! Their biological father hasn't hugged them yet! You get in line."
Bai Zihan felt wronged: "Lizhan, you are too stingy, aren't you? There are three of them! What's wrong with lending me one?"
Li Zhan had already picked up Yan Yan, rolled his eyes at him and said, "That's only after I've held all three. If you want to be the first one to hold, go get married and have a baby."
Bai Zihan: “…”
Bai Zihan gritted his teeth and said, "Li Zhan, you can show off all you want! When I get married, my wife and I will have two pairs of triplets!"
Li Zhan glanced at him silently.
Little guy, you have two pairs of triplets. Find a wife first!
Xia Juanjuan couldn't help laughing when she saw Lizhan's proud look, and even felt a little sympathy for Bai Zihan.
However, Lizhan didn't show off for long, because when he just picked up Yanyan, Yanyan didn't recognize him, so she held Lizhan's chest with her little hands and started crying, refusing to let Lizhan hold her.
A fierce battle would be... embarrassing.
Bai Zihan was feeling bullied by his wife one second, and was gloating over the misfortune the next.
Xia Juanjuan reached out to take Yanyan and said with a smile, "I guess it's been too long since we last saw each other, so we don't recognize each other. These three guys are all very sensible and don't make trouble. They will get to know each other after a couple of days."
Liezhan was helpless, so he had to hug Yeye again. Yeye also cried and refused to be hugged. It was better when it came to Yaoyao.
The little guy is quite calm. When he was born, he was born more than 20 minutes later than his two older brothers. Now he is the one with the best temper among the three brothers. He will let anyone hold him and will not cry.
Xia Juanjuan couldn't help but frown and said, "Why isn't this kid crying? What if he was held by a trafficker? How can he not cry or make a fuss?"
Li Zhan: "..."
Li Zhan gritted his teeth: "Juanjuan, I am their father..."
The two of them were crying like that, it was already quite embarrassing for him, and finally there was one who didn't cry, but his wife ruined the show...
Upon hearing this, Xia Juanjuan quickly smiled and said, "Oh, sorry, sorry, I didn't think of that."
Yaoyao was still quite considerate. When Bai Zihan held him in his arms, he cried twice, as a way of distinguishing his father from other strangers.
But it was just two sounds, and then she started to study Bai Zihan's buttons seriously and poked them with her little hands.
After a while of commotion, Xia Juanjuan put the triplets back into the stroller and pushed it away.
Li Zhan and Bai Zihan were both hard laborers. Not only did they carry a bag of things each, they also had to lend a hand to Xiaowen and the others to prevent them from getting lost.
Bai Zihan couldn't help laughing: "Sister-in-law, we are in Beijing, the troops still have food, you take so much..."
Xia Juanjuan smiled and said, "I know you guys definitely don't need any. These are all grown at home, or picked and dried in the mountains. They are not worth much, but just a token of my appreciation. It would be ugly if you came here empty-handed."
Li Zhan kicked him and said, "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb! My wife brought it here, how can it be the same? I think you don't want to eat it anymore, right?"
Bai Zihan immediately said in a servile manner: "Of course we have to eat it! The ones my sister-in-law planted and picked herself must taste better than the food in the cafeteria!"
As they talked, they left the station.
Li Zhan borrowed a jeep from the army to pick them up. There were three of them, six kids, and so many things, so the car was quite full and drove towards the army's guesthouse.
Originally, Fu Weixin suggested that there was a vacant room in the Fu family and that they could stay there, but Li Zhan refused.
Now that Fu Qingye has returned to the city, if he has to live in the Fu family, they will inevitably meet. He doesn't want his wife to come over to visit and be angry.
Fu Weixin was just a big boss, he didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind. He always thought that Fu Qingye treated Lizhan as his brother and was close to him. As for taking the initiative to go to the countryside, it was also for the purpose of making progress. As for going to Lizhan's hometown, it was only because it was not far from Beijing and Lizhan's family could take care of him a little. So he never doubted Fu Qingye's thoughts.
The fact that he had been away for a year and came back in disgrace made Fu Weixin a little angry.
Seeing Lizhan's refusal, Fu Weixin did not insist.
After all, Lizhan's wife had only met them once last time. If they were to just let her live at home, she would probably feel restrained.
Lizhan specially booked two rooms in the guesthouse, both of which came with independent toilets. However, there was no need to think about taking a shower, as large bathhouses were still popular in the north at that time.
The guesthouse was not far from the military camp, but he did not plan to return to the army at night.
Bai Zihan was also left behind as a temporary babysitter, sleeping in the next room with Xiaowen, Xiaowu and Beibei.
The triplets were in their room, but they were only a few months old, so there was no need to worry about them being seen.
After not seeing each other for a few months, it feels like a new marriage.
When Xia Juanjuan asked the guesthouse for hot water to wash up, Li Zhan had already come over.
Xia Juanjuan was both angry and embarrassed, but after all, it had been a few months and she didn't want to do it. Plus, she was afraid that the sound insulation was not good and Bai Zihan next door would hear the noise, so she reluctantly agreed.
Calculating the time, she was still within the safe period, but Xia Juanjuan still didn't dare to be careless.
