Qin Nian saw Zhou Ang off and wasn't in a hurry to pick up the child.
"Mom, did you do that on purpose?"
Qin Nianchao sought answers from Yang Yufen.
"It's true that I bought you things, but I didn't expect to run into this. We ended up arguing, and when your sister-in-law came, I thought I might be able to help her out."
She's finally gotten her revenge, both old and new; she got off easy!
Staying home, Hu Jun was working overtime, and Dean Hu also had things to do, after all, he was in charge of the entire research institute. So Professor Wen simply brought his child to Qin Nian's place, and everyone prepared for the New Year together.
"The vegetarian meatballs you fried last year were so delicious. I tried to make them myself but failed. This year, I'll help you and make more."
Professor Wen put on an apron to help.
"It's just frying vegetable balls. That's all I'm good at. You're a writer, and if you knew everything, you wouldn't leave any room for people like me. Look how carefully you cut vegetables."
Yang Yufen kneaded the dough. When there were many people and it got lively, she liked to think about food. Things that she would normally find troublesome didn't seem troublesome at this time.
Qin Nian wanted to go into the kitchen to help, but she was told to go out and watch the children. She could only read a book in one hand and keep an eye on the children at the same time.
With Hu Zhenghao playing with the twins, Xiao Bao was chewing on dried sweet potatoes in his cradle, so there was really no need to watch much.
"Auntie, auntie, it smells so good! What are Grandma Yang and Grandma doing in the kitchen?"
Hu Zhenghao brought Da Bao and Er Bao to Qin Nian. Qin Nian was engrossed in her book and was suddenly asked a question, and she also smelled the aroma of food.
"I'll go show you. Don't go into the kitchen. They're frying things in there. You might get burned."
Qin Nian gave a few instructions and got up. She had just walked to the kitchen when Professor Wen came out carrying a large bowl of food.
“Perfect timing. Let’s take these over first. Your mother-in-law is so thoughtful; she even prepared pear soup for you to help you stay calm. I’ll take the pear soup.”
Wow! The delicious food is here!
Hu Zhenghao cheered excitedly, and Da Bao and Er Bao clapped along. Then Xiao Bao was startled awake.
Just as Qin Nian was about to comfort the child, Hu Zhenghao had already rushed up to Xiao Bao.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Bao, your brothers are here. It's your fault."
Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Bao cried less. Hu Zhenghao skillfully reached into the swaddling clothes.
"Damn, looks like I woke him up, hehe."
Professor Wen saw it too, but instead of scolding the child, he smiled knowingly and put down the pear soup.
"Xiao Bao has slept enough, it's time to make him some formula."
"Teacher's wife, I'm here."
Qin Nian was finally able to help. Although she was a bit clumsy, she managed to feed the baby, change his diaper, and burp him smoothly.
After finishing, Qin Nian breathed a long sigh of relief.
Kids are so cuddly. When she came back, the two children were much older than Xiao Bao and could eat by themselves. They were only three or four months apart, but the difference was so big.
She missed so many of her children's growth process. If it weren't for the photos her mother-in-law took with the children, she might have regretted it for the rest of her life.
On New Year's Eve, the two families had a reunion dinner together. Qin Nian was a little worried that her mother-in-law would feel sad. After all, Shen Xianjun was still alive. In such a festive atmosphere, without Shen Xianjun, her mother-in-law would miss him more.
"Come on, come on, here's your New Year's money."
After finishing her meal, Yang Yufen happily took out the New Year's money she had prepared earlier, wrapped in red paper.
Wow! Thank you, Grandma Yang!
Hu Zhenghao excitedly rushed to be the first one.
"Good child, this is your New Year's money. You'll also receive a New Year's red envelope tomorrow morning. Remember that."
Yang Yufen smiled as she handed out red envelopes to the children. When she noticed her daughter-in-law staring at her, she stuffed the last red envelope in her hand into Qin Nian's hand.
