The old man's bedroom was on the second floor. After Qi Siling sent the luggage over, he led everyone to the third floor. There were ten rooms on this floor, which was just right for the little ones to live in.
But Zi Qiu and Zi Dong had been together for a long time, and they both asked to live together.
Qi Siling had no choice but to arrange for Zi Bo and Zi Zhong to move the bed from another room so that they could sleep in one room, and then buy another bed after the New Year and put it in the empty room. At least everything was prepared so that they could all feel a sense of belonging.
After settling them down and telling them that each room has a bathroom and toilet, as well as many functional technologies, I took them downstairs.
The two old men had already sat down on the sofa, chatting with Xia Youyou and teasing Chenchen from time to time.
The nannies were preparing meals for the whole family in the kitchen, and the meal only officially started when Cao An brought people over.
Naru's parents were still a little uncomfortable, and Liu Hui comforted them, even though it was her first time here.
Qi Siling raised his glass and clinked glasses with the grandfathers, then motioned Zi Bo and Zi Zhong, who were already in college, to pick up their glasses and try to drink some.
When they were in college, they had said they wanted to work in a company and help them. So, now that they were twenty years old, they could drink a little more moderately so that they wouldn't be nervous when facing social events in the future.
The whole family had a lively lunch. After the meal, everyone went to the yard to look around and take a walk.
Chenchen came back here again and was ready to have fun.
Zi Qiu and Zi Dong were still a little shy. They followed behind Xia Youyou and Na Ru, curiously pointing at the tall tree in the distance and asking, "Sister-in-law Youyou, what kind of tree is that?"
"It's a coconut tree, and it bears coconuts."
They all knew about coconuts. After all, they had eaten a lot of southern fruits that Brother Qi brought back to Beijing from the south a few years ago. However, this was the first time they had seen a coconut tree.
"It's so high? How do I take it off?"
Xia Youyou gestured with her hands, "There's a tree climbing tool that's stuck on the trunk. You can climb to the top and chop down the coconuts."
Looking at the two little girls who were taller than herself, Xia Youyou sighed silently. She was the shortest in the family!
"I'll take you shopping for new clothes tomorrow, buy a few extra sets for each of you, and then I'll take you to the beach in a couple of days." Xia Youyou told them about the arrangements. Of course, when she said "going to the beach," she didn't mean going to the island, but to the beach in Pengcheng.
The yacht is not yet available for use, and it will take at least a few years. Or if Anhai also produces yachts, it could be used earlier, so that it can go out to sea more often.
"We already have clothes, and we buy them often at home." The two little girls were very sensible and quickly refused.
"Home is home. Come to Pengcheng, the weather here is different." Xia Youyou did not allow any refusal and made the decision directly.
Chenchen tugged at his aunt's clothes, expecting something pitifully.
"Want to play with a dog?" Xia Youyou's guess was right.
"Hmmmm~" The little guy's eyes lit up!
Xia Youyou took his little hand and said, "Let's go." She waved to let Ziqiu and Zidong follow, and they went to the kennel.
The dog smelled the scent from a distance and started whimpering and getting agitated in the cage.
Xia Youyou asked Chenchen to stand where he was while she walked over, opened the cage, tied the dog leash, and then touched each dog one by one.
The dog's name was very sloppy, so for convenience, she and Qi Siling both called it '1234'.
But as to who was who, neither of them could tell, nor could they tell.
Anyway, the dogs know that I’m calling them, and that’s enough!
Xia Youyou communicated with the dogs for a while before stopping Chenchen from walking towards the tied dogs.
"Chenchen, stretch out your hand and let the dog smell you."
The little guy stretched out his hand as he was told and slowly handed it over.
The dogs tilted their heads and looked at their owner, then at the child. After making sure that there was no threat to their owner, they tentatively moved over to smell the hand.
After all four dogs had smelled it, Xia Youyou touched the dog's head with her own hand, and held Chenchen's hand with her other hand to touch them together.
Chenchen's eyes became brighter and brighter, and his hands became more and more excited.
Seeing that he was no longer afraid, Xia Youyou let him go and let him play by himself, but she kept her eyes on guard against the dog's sudden attack.
After all, this dog is a wolfdog and still has the wildness of a wolf. She didn't dare to take the risk.
"Hahaha~ The dog is so cute!" Chenchen was no longer afraid. He was so brave that he directly hugged the dog's head.
Xia Youyou was at a loss for words. She sat down on the grass and waved to Ziqiu and Zidong behind her to come over and play with the dog.
Four people and four dogs started playing on the grass.
Zi Bo and a few others who had been watching the yard from a distance also ran over and followed Chenchen to play with the dog.
The old men, Liu Hui, and Na Ru's parents were lying under the parasol to rest. Cao An, Xiao Hai, and Na Ru were accompanying them. Qi Siling had already come over and picked up Xia Youyou, who wanted to lie on the grass, and brushed off the grass debris on her.
Xia Youyou felt tired and just wanted to sleep.
Seeing his wife's double eyelids darkened with sleepiness, Qi Siling hugged her and asked, "Are you very sleepy?"
Leaning against the man's broad chest, Xia Youyou forced herself to cheer up, "I can still hold on for a while."
The man noticed that she was not in good spirits and knew that he had asked for too much in the past three months. He did not touch her for the past two days and just held her in his arms and slept peacefully.
"Shall I take you upstairs to get some sleep?"
Xia Youyou glanced at the old men in the distance and shook her head, saying, "Don't worry. Grandpa and the others should also take a nap later. Let's go upstairs then."
"Just tell me if you can't bear it anymore. Grandpa and the others won't blame you." Qi Siling turned his head to look at her face. Fortunately, it was still rosy. It must be because the two of them were too crazy a while ago. It felt like all her energy was drained.
Xia Youyou nodded and leaned against him softly, watching Chenchen pet the dog.
"The weather is nice today, neither too hot nor too cold. Let's have a buffet outside tonight. We can have barbecue and home-cooked dishes. Just help yourself to what you want to eat."
As soon as Xia Youyou finished speaking, Zijiu, who was petting the dog, jumped up and agreed.
"Okay, okay!"
Zichun also jumped up and nodded vigorously with him.
They love barbecue very much.
Xia Youyou smiled, "Then you guys take a nap first. After you get up, go to the kitchen to find the nanny. There are a lot of ingredients in the refrigerator. You can help make barbecue skewers and prepare for dinner."
"Great~~" Several people were so excited that they almost jumped up.
Qi Siling laughed, "Then I'll go out and get some fresh seafood." The seafood is all in the space, but you have to go outside.
"Okay." Xia Youyou nodded. "Make more. These little brats are eating me out of my money. Don't underestimate their appetite."
Qi Siling pinched her little face and said, "I know!" Of course he knew. The refrigerator was filled with seafood that he brought with him. It was enough for one day, so he had to be ready to go out for a walk at any time and bring back fresh ingredients.
Normally, the driver would take the nanny to the market to buy vegetables for the manor, but Qi Siling usually brought back seafood.
Xia Youyou watched Qi Siling drive away, asked Zi Bo to keep an eye on Chenchen, and then returned to the parasol to talk to the old men.
