Zhou Jiao had long known about these fake sisters. Therefore, she always found it difficult to open up to others. She casually mentioned Yi Shumin's intention to her family and then let it go.
Anyone who wasn't in her heart was no different from a random stranger on the street. She'd just get along with them if she could; she wasn't so busy that she needed a girlfriend.
Zhang Guoqing, however, was furious after listening to this for a while. Why do these weirdos always appear around his wife? And they even want to use her. They're courting death!
He didn't mention this to Fang Fei, but he still felt uncomfortable.
After a while, Fang Fei came running to him excitedly and told him that his wife was pregnant. Zhang Guoqing congratulated him with a smile on his face, but he was secretly thinking that any woman would get pregnant.
"How about finding some meat for me this time?"
Zhang Guoqing glanced at him sideways, "Not so good! Look, I'm busy as a dog, where do I find the time? Your wife is only two months old now, why are you in such a hurry?"
Fang Fei sighed in grievance, "She pesters me about food every day, what can I do?"
"That's because she has too much free time! Look at your wife. Look at how many people out there can't fill their stomachs, and they're still doing all sorts of things. My wife only ate one egg a day when she was pregnant, and she only ate something good during the confinement period."
"real?"
"It's not like your wife didn't see what Jiaojiao eats. Buddy, listen to me. The food you two families provide is enough to supplement her nutrition and save more money for raising a child. Where are you going to buy meat in this scorching heat?"
Fang Fei followed his gaze and looked up at the sky. "Do you want to go to the beach this summer?"
"I'll be assigned a job right after graduation, and I guess I won't be able to leave."
They were standing under the eaves chatting when suddenly a voice shouted, "Dad..."
"dad……"
Zhang Guoqing covered his forehead with his hands in pain, "These two ancestors are here again."
Fang Fei laughed heartily. Looking at the twins staggering out, he patted his buddy's shoulder with envy: "You really don't know how to appreciate the blessings you were born into! They're not even a year old yet, and they can already walk."
"It will be exactly one year old on the second of next month."
"They can speak now."
"No matter where, just two words will pop up."
Fang Fei looked at his smug face and kicked him.
Zhang Guoqing stepped aside, ran to pick up his two sons, and said, "Call me uncle."
"Mother-in-law."
"Bro-po."
Zhang Guoqing laughed heartily.
"Let's go, let's go." Liuyi struggled and pointed outside.
Wuyi pointed at Aunt Sun: "Car."
Zhang Guoqing was immediately defeated by the two little guys and hugged them tightly with his arms, "Alright, wait until mommy comes out and go out on the street. If you don't behave, you'll be gone."
"Ah!" screamed Liuyi, and then he shouted loudly: "Mom."
May Day did not lag behind and echoed Mom's shouting.
Fang Fei gloated as he watched Zhang Guoqing's forehead sweating with anxiety, and teased the two children, "Zhou Jiao left. Zhou Jiao went to work."
"bad!"
"beat!"
"Xiaowu, can your son really understand?" Fang Fei looked at the children in surprise and asked.
Zhang Guoqing nodded proudly, "They understand that we have to go to work. Whenever we are not at home, they know that we have gone to work."
Zhou Jiao came out with the cart, and the two brothers immediately struggled to get off. Seeing this, Zhang Guoqing handed Zhou Jiao Liuyi and put Wuyi inside to sit for a while.
The twins sat in a modified stroller, and their personalities became apparent the moment they left the house. Big brother Liuyi's mouth never stopped. He kept muttering a string of Martian words interspersed with clearly pronounced words.
On the contrary, my younger brother Wuyi lazily leaned there, silently taking in the surrounding scenery and people. When we reached the fork in the road, he pointed to the right and shouted, "Go!"
...which leads to the nursery where Ping An is.
After separating from Fang Fei, Zhang Guoqing and his wife had nothing better to do, so they followed their children's lead and slowly strolled over there. As expected, they saw banknotes again along the way.
Zhang Guoqing picked up the dime while no one was watching. Now, except for large amounts of cash, he never dared to pick up anything and hand it to the security guard.
And after many tests, it is now very clear that these built-in golden fingers are like twin brothers, and neither is indispensable.
Seeing Zhang Guodong squatting to tie his shoelaces was no longer unusual for Zhou Jiao. The last time she took the children to a hutong courtyard, she found a black briefcase halfway through the walk.
Looking at the bundles of cash of varying denominations, they knew immediately that this must be public funds. She felt lucky for the owner. It was lucky it was her; anyone else would have swallowed it.
"It's time for my second sister-in-law and the others to give birth, right?"
"Almost. I'll prepare the gifts after they send me a telegram."
"Time flies by so fast. Once we get our diplomas, our university life will be over."
Zhang Guoqing nodded in agreement.
"Is that Dayong in front? Is he looking for you?" Zhou Jiao suddenly saw a young man with a figure similar to Wan Dayong looking around at the intersection.
Zhang Guoqing had better eyesight than her. He followed her gaze and immediately laughed out loud, waving in that direction.
When the two sides reunited, Wan Dayong complained, "Why are you running off in such hot weather instead of staying home?"
"Is there something urgent?" Zhang Guoqing pointed at his two sons. "It's a rare opportunity to rest, and the little ones are clamoring to come out."
Wan Dayong squatted in front of the cart and looked at the twins: "Six one five one, remember uncle?"
"Grandma." The two children greeted him in unison.
Zhang Guoqing laughed heartily. I told you guys not to be my uncle, but to always take advantage of me.
After entertaining the children for a while, the three of them slowly strolled towards a place with fewer people.
It was almost dusk, and the afternoon after the early summer rain was less stuffy and more cool.
Ever since the other party, Ding Datou and Geng Dazhi graduated and started working last year, they have rarely gotten together day and night like they did when they were in school.
Judging from his expression just now, he must have something important to discuss with Zhang Guoqing. Seeing this, Zhou Jiao pushed the cart a few steps faster, leaving space for them to chat.
Zhang Guoqing looked at Zhou Jiao in front of him and asked his brother, who was arm in arm with him, "Any good news? I heard from Grandpa Wan that you are getting married soon?"
Wan Dayong shook his head. "It's too early to talk about it. If there really is a suitable match, why wouldn't I bring her to meet you guys?"
"That's enough. Stop being picky. Get married soon so the old man can have grandchildren sooner." Zhang Guoqing looked at his face and asked, "Got a promotion?"
"What the hell! I regret not applying for a national defense student position like you guys did."
Zhang Guoqing rolled his eyes at him. This guy was just being sarcastic! Who didn't know that even ordinary people couldn't get into the Second Bureau? With so many buddies in the compound, he and Ding Datou were lucky enough to not have to eat sand!
"Xiao Wu, none of us can compare to Dazhi. He's so cool and dashing at the Railway Bureau. He wasn't happy about it at first. It's true that fools have good fortune."
Zhang Guoqing nodded in agreement. Of the few of them, only Geng Dazhi had been assigned to the Beijing Railway Bureau's locomotive section. Less than a year later, he'd already been assigned to a single dormitory. The benefits were indeed quite good.
"But you don't have to envy him, your wife is like this!"
Zhang Guoqing looked at his raised thumb and an idea flashed in his mind, "Did you find out about Jiaojiao's assignment?"
"Well, I heard it from a friend in the Planning Commission."
Zhang Guoqing was instantly overjoyed. Although Zhou Jiao had been telling him not to worry, he was genuinely worried about the couple being separated. With the "four departments and one association" gathered in the same building, Wan Dayong's news was certain.
"Thanks, buddy."
"A verbal thank you is all it takes? You have to treat me. My friend personally delivered the documents to the school. I'll introduce you to someone when I have the chance. Zhou Jiao will have another acquaintance soon."
Zhang Guoqing quickly asked, "Male or female?"
"I won't tell you!"
Zhang Guoqing ignored his teasing gaze and jokingly said, "Are you two in a relationship? We're not brothers, we're friends."
Wan Dayong kicked him and scolded him with a smile, "You're such a cunning fellow! Ask your wife to help keep an eye on her. That girl still doesn't understand and keeps calling me 'big brother'."
Zhang Guoqing felt relieved and was in a good mood to joke around. The two of them were discussing how to get the girl into the Wan family as soon as possible.
