The person who came to pick her up was naturally aware of Qin Nian's situation.
Because Yang Yufen had prepared the meal, they arrived at the destination a day early.
Qin Nian was assigned a separate dormitory room. The room wasn't big, but it was enough for one person.
Qin Nian got a day off, but after opening one package after another, she couldn't hold back her tears, which she had been holding back for so long.
From small things like hair ties, her mother-in-law prepared almost everything she needed for daily life, including an electric stove. Was she afraid she would go hungry in the middle of the night after arriving here?
The basket of eggs she had seen at home earlier was also brought along, and even the most private items were thoughtfully prepared. Finally, Qin Nian also saw three hundred yuan.
As Qin Nian was packing, someone arrived. Seeing the pile of supplies Qin Nian had brought, they had to admit that she was well-prepared. Could someone so delicate really endure it?
"Comrade Xiao Qin, as mentioned above, since you arrived a day early, you've been given a day to rest. However, we still hope you can get familiar with the place as soon as possible. I'll take you to the canteen."
"Okay, please wait five minutes."
Qin Nian wiped away her tears, packed up in five minutes, and came out with her lunchbox.
The conditions here are indeed harsh. There are far more people than in their research institute, and everyone is busy with their own work. Even when eating, their other hand is not idle.
In the first few days, Qin Nian did struggle to keep up, but in just a few days, she changed more and more, gradually moving from a peripheral figure to the center of attention.
Yang Yufen has two more grandchildren, which keeps her very busy every day. However, as the weather gets warmer, Aunt Wang and Aunt Liu are very happy to come and see the twins.
"Sister Yang, what are you doing cutting so much bamboo back here?"
"As the weather gets warmer, we can weave a bamboo bed so that children are less likely to get rashes while sleeping in it during the summer."
"Your baby is still in the first month, and you're already thinking about summer. You know, babies who drink formula grow up really fast."
Aunt Liu came to visit.
"That's right, I see them every day. Yu Fen takes such good care of these two children. They're so fair and tender, you just want to kiss them."
Aunt Wang helps take care of the children; they are now godparents and godchildren.
"These two kids are just like Niannian, so obedient."
Yang Yufen started by praising the baby, saying that babies in their postpartum period just eat and sleep, and when they're asleep they just poop. In fact, once the baby is well-fed, cleaned up, and comfortable, the baby really doesn't fuss much.
Yang Yufen was worried that her child might be weak, but after the doctor checked and found that there was absolutely no problem, Yang Yufen was relieved.
"Are you going to hold a full-month celebration for the baby later?"
Aunt Liu asked.
"No, we won't do it. The children are still too young, and Niannian won't be here. We'll wait until they turn one year old, then we can sit down and have a meal together. When they turn one month old, I'll take them to have a photo taken, so when Niannian comes back, she can see how the children have grown."
Yang Yufen had already made up her mind, and her hands continued splitting the bamboo.
With Nian Nian away from home, household expenses have decreased. Apart from buying milk powder for the child, Yang Yufen hardly spends any money.
She had already planned that once the two children were a month old, she would take them to clean up Niannian's old courtyard and rent it out. That would be enough to cover the daily expenses of the three of them.
"Oh dear, it's time. I have to go back and cook for Yao Yao."
Aunt Wang checked the time and immediately got up.
"Go quickly, don't let the child go hungry."
"I also have to go back and cook for those two rascals."
After working for a while, Yang Yufen felt that it was about time. She washed her hands, patted off the dust, and prepared formula for the two children.
The two children woke up and were just about to cry when their food was stuffed into their mouths.
