Liu Zhongyi, Liang Shouzhen, Du Lianqiao and his wife, along with Du Haisheng, also came to the full moon banquet. They didn't have Han Yi pick them up first, but instead came together in a large cart. By the time they arrived, the food was almost ready.
At the dinner table, Liu Zhongyi raised his glass to Han Xiao and said, "Brother-in-law, you finally have a grandson now, and Jinyu's wish has come true. Congratulations! Come on, let's have a drink."
Han Xiao laughed and said, "Our family is where we are today thanks to you, brother. I should be the one toasting you. Let's have a drink."
Both of them knew that their happy life today was hard-won, and many words and feelings were contained in this glass of wine.
With Yuan Qihua and He Zhendong enlivening the atmosphere at the table, everyone relaxed and drank heartily.
He Yuhan's wine is a top-quality brew, and it's rare to get to drink it normally. There are quite a few people with good wine here, so of course we should drink more this time.
He Yuhan did not sit at the table. After washing off the smell of cooking oil, she let her mother-in-law eat with the other women at the table while she went back to her room to breastfeed her baby.
Han Yixian had been keeping a close eye on his wife, He Yuhan. When he saw that she hadn't come to the table, he quietly filled a bowl with rice and vegetables, then got up and took it inside.
Some of the men at the table had already noticed Han Yixian's actions. As soon as they saw him carrying a bowl into the house, they knew he was taking care of his wife and bringing her food.
Cui Jiancheng sat down next to He Chenglin and said with a smile, "Old He, you've found a good son-in-law. He knows how to take care of his wife. He even brought her a bowl of food before she could eat. That's rare."
He Chenglin nodded and smiled, "The son-in-law you found isn't bad either. Haven't you heard the old saying, 'One who stays near vermilion gets stained red'? Qihua takes his cousin as a role model, so he'll definitely be a loving husband in the future."
However, my son-in-law is truly a rare find.
Han Xiao chuckled from the side, "Oh, in-law, I heard you praising my son. What do you think? Aren't you increasingly satisfied with this son-in-law? That young couple is so sweet together, I'm envious!"
He Chenglin laughed and said, "What are you envious of? Aren't you and your wife all lovey-dovey? Do you think no one can tell?"
Han Xiao was long past the age of shyness, and was even more unrestrained in front of his in-laws, laughing and saying, "Jinyu and I are newlyweds, aren't we? Aren't you all in love right after marrying your wife? Or have you already started to despise your wife who has shared your hardships?"
Cui Jiancheng quickly moved closer and said, "You can't just say things like that. If my husband hears this, it could start a family war."
He Chenglin and Han Xiao burst into laughter upon hearing this. Liu Zhongyi and Liang Shouzhen also heard what Han Xiao and the others said and joined in the laughter. The women at the table were curious about what they were laughing about, but Han Xiao and the other two gave them vague answers.
Inside the house, Han Yi first placed the rice bowl on the kang table and then watched his wife breastfeed the child.
He Yuhan blushed and glared at Han Yixian before turning around and asking, "Why did you come in? Why aren't you drinking with the guests?"
Han Yixian laughed and said, "There's no need for me to accompany them. Having good wine with them is enough. Besides, there's Qihua and your eldest and second brothers. I'd rather keep you company."
He Yuhan said, "What do I need you to stay with? You should go out now, someone will be looking for you soon."
Han Yixian chuckled and said, "We've been married for so long, why are you still so shy? I'll wait until you finish breastfeeding while I watch the baby so you can eat quickly, it'll get cold soon. You need nutrition right now, you can't go hungry."
He Yuhan sighed and said, "I've gained more than ten pounds and I'm almost overnourished. If it weren't for breastfeeding, I would have already started dieting to lose weight."
Han Yixian immediately stopped him, saying, "Why are you trying to lose weight? You're not fat at all. You're just right. You used to be too thin, and it was uncomfortable to hug you. Now it's much more comfortable to hug you."
He Yuhan turned her head and glared at Han Yixian, saying, "You're being so irresponsible again. Aren't you afraid of being overheard?"
Han Yixian chuckled and touched his nose, saying, "You really shouldn't lose weight. Women should be a little plump. Being skinny isn't attractive at all. I like you the way you are."
Besides, didn't Mom say that when you breastfeed, the baby absorbs nutrients from your body? You might lose weight after a while, so there's no need to deliberately lose weight.
He Yuhan said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I definitely won't diet while breastfeeding, I'll just do some exercise at most. Is that alright?"
Han Yixian didn't want to keep nagging his wife, so he said, "Then let's get some exercise."
Han Yixian thought to himself that now that his wife had given birth and was out of confinement, they could definitely start exercising more.
The child finished eating quickly, and He Yuhan put him on the kang (a heated brick bed), covered him with a quilt, and then picked up her rice bowl to eat. "I can eat while watching the child. You should go back to the table. It's not good to stay too long. Take good care of my dad and Bowen. I'm afraid they'll feel too constrained."
Han Yixian had no choice but to return to the dinner table and drink with everyone, occasionally taking care of his father-in-law and Jiang Bowen.
Jiang Bowen was very nervous and restrained to meet so many important people at the dinner table today, but he gradually adapted under Han Yixian's care.
At the women's table, Bai Xiuyan saw Han Yixian come out of the house and said to Yu Huiru and Wen Jinyu with a smile, "Yixian and Yuhan, this young couple has such a good relationship. Look, Yixian was worried that his wife wouldn't have enough to eat, so he brought food to her room. He's so thoughtful."
Wen Jinyu nodded and said, "Indeed, I've been in the city for so long and I've never seen them argue or have a fight. They always think of each other first. How could a couple like that not live a good life?"
