For the baby's one-month celebration, Jiang Qiao and his family held several tables at home, which served as both a farewell banquet for the old man and a celebration for the baby's one-month milestone.
Liu Zhanyu and Chen Fang, as representatives of Jiang Qiao's work unit, also came to participate. In particular, Gu Zhengfeng, who had already returned home, also came back at this time.
He, as the maternal grandfather, absolutely couldn't miss his grandson's one-month celebration. He usually doesn't have time to spend with these three little ones, so he would definitely be there for such a memorable occasion.
The three children who were once considered ugly by Jiang Qiao have now grown up to be beautiful and chubby, a far cry from their former skinny selves. I've never seen such good-looking children.
It should be said that these three little ones have inherited the best features of their parents. The little girl looks more like her mother, and she will definitely grow up to be a great beauty.
Liu Zhanyu held his grandsons, finding each one pleasing to the eye. "Only you and Ning Hao could have such children. With your parents' resources, these kids are bound to be exceptional."
Jiang Qiao proudly stuck out her neck, "That's right, don't you know who your daughter is? Being your half-grandfather isn't so bad after all—"
Even praising himself, Liu Zhanyu was quite pleased with himself, thinking, "If my daughter can praise me, then I must be a decent-looking dad."
Girl, our section chief and bureau chief are really unable to come because of other matters, so they asked us to bring the gifts for them.
"After a while, the higher-ups will send a few people to learn medicine from you. Chen Fang will explain the arrangements then."
Jiang Qiao pressed further, asking, "Systematic learning?"
Liu Zhanyu shook his head. "It shouldn't be. The people sent over are all well-trained. I heard from the director that they mainly study emergency response. When they arrive, you will naturally receive a notification."
You can rest assured that these people were carefully selected by the section chief and bureau chief.
Jiang Qiao nodded. "Okay, we'll talk about that later. Has my situation always been just focused on making medicine?"
"That's the current situation. Whether there will be other arrangements in the future depends on the leadership. I really don't know. However, your job is still clerical, so you don't need to worry about the same situation happening again."
Actually, Liu Zhanyu was quite curious. Given Jiang Qiao's current situation, becoming a leader wouldn't be a problem at all. But why did this girl seem to have no interest at all?
Faced with Liu Zhanyu's doubts, Jiang Qiao simply smiled and said, "The greater the position, the greater the responsibility. Life is short. I don't have many thoughts. As long as I live well, live happily, and take good care of the people around me, that is my greatest pursuit."
Of course, my greatest wish is to help as many people as I can within my capabilities.
"Jiang Qiao, it's a bit of a waste of your potential. Your abilities are undeniable. Why not strive for further advancement?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "Dad, with you all here, what do I have to worry about? I have no ambition. In your eyes, I may seem a little unambitious. But don't forget, I am a mother of three. I have a family, elderly parents, and children. I don't want to give up any of them. Some things are not something you can take care of at the same time."
I'd rather focus on raising my three children; perhaps they'll achieve even greater things in the future.
The people chatting with others outside couldn't help but nod, especially Hou Diankui, whose smile looked rather strange.
Hou Diankui was truly satisfied with Jiang Qiao's answer. He knew he hadn't misjudged Jiang Qiao. Now, it seemed this girl had sacrificed a lot, but who could know how amazing the child Jiang Qiao would raise would be?
That girl is someone who doesn't like to show off, especially now.
He put his arm around Gu Hanting's shoulder and said, "Brother, this girl knows when to advance and when to retreat. That's rare."
Gu Hanting smiled and said, "We don't expect our children to be very successful. As long as they can contribute to the country and society, that's enough. As for the rest, we'll follow their wishes. As long as they don't go astray, I think that's success."
Our Qiao'er is studying medicine; she should focus her energy on that. Healing and saving lives is a truly noble thing, don't you think?
Zuo Zhankui and the others nodded with smiles. "Yes, who doesn't get sick? If you're sick, you have to get treatment. That's why being a doctor is the noblest profession."
Actually, the old men present are all shrewd and perceptive. Although they may not say it, they all understand it in their hearts. It is rare for a child to have such a mindset and speak his mind. They all admire him for his wisdom.
Today is the baby's 100-day celebration, and the main characters are of course the three little ones. When Wen Jingwan and the others brought out the three dressed-up babies, everyone's eyes lit up.
Ning Hao held his little daughter in his arms, his smile never fading. Hearing the congratulations and praise from others, he, as a father, felt quite proud.
When Liu Zhanyu saw this half-grandson, he couldn't resist taking him away from Ning Hao.
"You, as the father, should take a break and let Grandpa hold you—"
Gu Zhengfeng and the others couldn't help but laugh. This cheap grandfather was really not being polite; his proper grandfather hadn't even said anything yet.
"Come on, today is the 100th day of our three babies' lives. Also, Grandpa Wen and his family are going back tomorrow. It's rare for everyone to get together, so let's take a group photo to commemorate this meaningful moment."
Gu Zhixuan walked over with a camera in his hand, which his sister had instructed him to do beforehand.
His wife, Yang Anxiu, smiled and called for everyone to come and gather around.
Considering Chen Fang and Liu Zhanyu's identities, the two of them did not participate. The others took a group photo with the whole family, and then took photos in small groups.
Most of the time, they would take photos with all three children together.
When Jiang Xiuqi saw the camera, his eyes lit up. This thing is great! As a country bumpkin, I've never seen anything like it before, and I rarely take pictures. Why not use that money for something else?
But he knew how good this thing was.
Happiness was captured in this moment, and friendship was also witnessed because of the camera.
The Gu family's courtyard was filled with laughter and joy. The addition of three little babies to the family made the old men and Wang Benshan feel that life was full of vitality and hope, and gave them something to look forward to in the future.
Although they don't have children, Jiang Qiao will take care of them in the future, and three children will call them grandpa, grandma, and great-grandpa. So what if they don't have children? They lack nothing. This big family has made them feel the respect and warmth they deserve.
