Fifteen minutes later, a handsome young man stood before Ye Yushu. The little girl, with tears still streaming down her face, rushed over and cried, "Daddy, my daddy's back! Daddy, give me a hug!"
Ye Chenming picked up Xiao Yushu and gave her a big kiss. This little rascal, Daddy doesn't recognize her now that he has a beard.
Ye Tianru was unhappy. He hadn't seen his father for a long time and wanted his father to hug him, but he was a man and couldn't cry like his sister.
Ye Chenming had already noticed his son's dilemma, so he sat down with a smile and picked up Ye Tianru as well. The two little ones each occupied one of Ye Chenming's legs, hooking their arms around his neck. One was being coquettish, and the other looked completely satisfied, which was so sweet that it made Ye Chenming swoon.
Yan Xiaonan was also discussing with Yan Aidang in the courtyard. The two looked at the blueprints and talked about how to do things here and there. In the end, Yan Aidang called Ye Chen'er over as well, since house design was Ye Chen'er's specialty.
Ye Chen'er also hopes that construction here will start as soon as possible. Her grandmother has always hoped that the Fu family's embroidery skills can be carried forward. Now that there is this high-end shop, her grandmother will be very happy.
Yan Aidang got busy again, his home and office were piled with documents. He knew that the renovated courtyard house was about to become a trendsetter for a new era, so the decoration materials had to be exquisite, beautiful and practical.
Yan Aidang searched all over the material markets in Beijing for the materials he needed. Nan Nan's requirements were too high. It's true that the boss only needs to ask for things, and the employees have to run themselves ragged.
Fortunately, Nan Nan didn't intend to cut off the economy. She just handed Yan Ai Dang a cash check and left. Otherwise, if you want the horse to be good but not to eat grass, Yan Ai Dang would definitely have kicked the bucket.
The renovation was progressing very slowly, but fortunately Yan Xiaonan wasn't in a rush. She believed that slow and steady wins the race, and as long as the work was done well, nothing else mattered.
Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen finally had something to do. They watched the renovation workers busy every day and felt that they were working very hard, so they would always make some soup or broth for them in the kitchen.
To everyone's delight, Erlong also came along this time. Because Erlong worked diligently and had a background in construction, Yan Aidang promoted him to group leader and assigned him a single dormitory room so that his wife could come to Beijing to take care of him.
After arranging everything at home, Erlong's wife came to the capital to meet up with Erlong. Yan Aidang simply let Erlong's wife work in the canteen, helping with cooking and lighting the fire, so she could earn a salary.
Erlong looked at Old Man Chen, who was in excellent spirits, and said, "Dad, thanks to Cuihua, we were able to find good jobs and earn money. You can also enjoy your old age. I'm very happy."
Brother Chen took his pipe, filled it with tobacco, lit it, took a deep breath, and muttered to himself, "Luckily, I had a good daughter."
The gentle voice drifted into Erlong's ears, and Erlong felt ashamed. He knelt down with a thud: "Father, my sister will take care of you in your old age, so I'll smash the pot."
Old Man Chen remained silent, continuing to smoke his pipe, but his wife smiled. She knew the old man was relieved. Why did people in the countryside have sons? It was to carry on the family line and break pots.
A month later, Ye Chenming and Yan Xiaonan were preparing to go to Shanghai. Originally, Cuihua and Yan Xiaoqiang were going to go with the two little ones, but when Yan Xiaoqiang saw Ye Ren's reluctant eyes, he gritted his teeth and decided not to go.
To reassure the two little ones, Yan Xiaonan told them a story that she and her father had to deal with some work issues, or they would get a spanking from their boss.
When the two little ones heard that their parents were going to get a spanking, they generously told them to go back to work. They were all grown up; it would be so embarrassing for them to get spanked by their boss.
Ye Chenming laughed. How did Nan Nan come up with this idea? But he also admired Yan Xiaonan's resourcefulness. When it comes to coaxing children, of course, you should use whichever method works best.
"Mom and Dad, you need to focus on your work and don't worry about us. We won't worry about you either," Xiaoyushu comforted her in her sweet, childish voice.
Xiao Tianru also nodded quietly. Yan Xiaonan swore that she really saw her son nod. She was overjoyed. This son was so mature.
Yan Xiaonan picked up the two children and gave them a task: "Babies, you two need to watch over your two great-grandmothers and see if they eat well and go to bed on time. If you do well, Mommy will reward you when she gets back."
Upon receiving the task, Xiaoyushu's expression immediately turned serious: "Mom, what will I get as a reward if I complete the task?"
Yan Xiaonan gently pinched the little girl's nose: "What does Mommy's baby want?"
Xiao Yushu thought for a moment and said, "Riding a tiger."
This time, Xiao Tianru nodded hurriedly as well.
It turns out that Yan Xiaonan and Ye Chenming had brought the two children to Mushroom Mountain in Beijing, so that Tiger King and Dongfeng could identify their scents. They also solemnly told them that these two little ones were also their good friends.
Tiger King and Dongfeng twirled their noses and sniffed the two little ones thoroughly. The two little guys were really bold, and even though they were surrounded by two ferocious beasts, they didn't seem scared at all.
Tiger King and Dongfeng lay down on the ground at the same time. Yan Xiaonan knew that they were letting the two little ones ride on their backs, which was also a signal that the two ferocious beasts accepted the two children.
Tiger King had his younger sister riding on his back, and Dongfeng had his older brother riding on his back. When the two ferocious beasts stood up, the two little guys were extremely excited and hugged the two beasts' necks tightly.
Tiger King was alright; the little girl wasn't very strong, she only managed to grab a few tiger hairs, so she didn't feel much pain and slowly started running.
Something's not right with Dongfeng. This little guy is incredibly strong. His wolf fur is almost pulled out bald. He tries to shake his head, but the wolf fur on his neck is simply shaken off.
"Ouch!" Young master, could you be a little gentler?
Yan Xiaonan looked at Dongfeng with amusement, her wolf-like eyes filled with helplessness.
He adjusted the little guy's hand and told his older brother not to pull too hard, or the wolf brother would be in pain.
Ye Tianru nodded repeatedly, but the force in his hand did not lessen at all; the pain was still there.
Dongfeng quickly ran a lap, then lay down: "Awoo!"
Wolf Lord, I'm in so much pain! Quickly get this little devil off me!
Yan Xiaonan quickly picked Ye Tianru up; if he continued to pull her like that, Dongfeng would become the first wolf king in the wolf clan to have a bald neck.
From then on, a wolf and a tiger entered the hearts of the two little ones, and they kept an eye on each other, not telling anyone except their parents.
"Mom promised, she'll take you to ride the tiger when she gets back," Yan Xiaonan replied with a smile.
The little girl smiled, gave Yan Xiaonan a quick kiss, and said, "Goodbye, Mommy."
Yan Xiaonan looked at her son, and Xiao Tianru finally kissed Yan Xiaonan as well.
Yan Xiaonan was satisfied, picked up her luggage, and went to Shanghai with Ye Chenming.
