Song Anmin smiled and said, "Happy New Year."
"Happy New Year."
After Wang Ya's figure disappeared, Song Anmin slowly walked towards Heping Lane. Before he even reached the entrance of the lane, he saw two figures hopping around by the roadside.
Song Jianmin and Chen Zhou waved their sparklers around like they hadn't fired a cannon in centuries. Song Anmin rolled his eyes, muttered "boring," and went into the alley.
The lights were still on at the Song family's house. When Song Anmin passed by, he coughed twice and then knocked on the door.
It was Xu Guiying who opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, I saw the face of that brat, the third brother.
Xu Guiying teased him, "Third brother, where have you been?"
Song Anmin chuckled, "Mom, I just did a heroic deed, throwing out the trash and catching a thief along the way."
Xu Guiying asked in surprise, "Right outside the alley?"
Song Anmin briefly recounted what had just happened. He glanced around the room and saw a lot of New Year's goods displayed in the main room, but he couldn't tell which ones were sent by his eldest son.
Xu Guiying looked him up and down. "Are you alright?"
Song Anmin: "It's okay, it's okay, Mom. I'm healthy, with long legs and quick feet, how could anything happen to me? Are we going back to the countryside tomorrow? Can Lao Wu and I go too? Mom~~~ please~~~ Mom~~~~"
Xu Guiying: "If you have nothing to do, go back to sleep. Look at the time."
Before the third brother could speak, Xu Guiying closed the door.
The third brother, who had been rebuffed, was speechless.
Xu Guiying returned to the main room.
Qian Yu'an asked, "Mom, who was talking just now?"
Xu Guiying hugged her granddaughter. "The third son just came. Look how strong and chubby our Zhiyin is. Oh my, she smiled at her grandma."
Song Yun's family and Song Zhicheng's family had all left, and the main room had been cleaned up.
Song Yangmin came out of the kitchen, wiped his hands clean, and said, "Mom, go to sleep. You've finished washing the dishes. What does the third brother want?"
Xu Guiying hummed in agreement and chuckled, "That kid just went out to throw out the trash and caught a thief along the way. You guys should get some rest; the second brother has to leave early tomorrow."
Song Yangmin has to go back to his unit early tomorrow morning, and Xu Guiying and the others also have to go to the countryside.
Song Zhiyin slept with Xu Guiying and her husband at night, while Song Muchuan slept with his parents.
Inside the house, Song Xinfu had already prepared the foot bath water and was reaching out to Xu Guiying, saying, "Hurry up and soak your feet. Zhiyin, come to Grandpa's."
Song Zhiyin wore a new outfit today, her eyes darting around. Both children inherited Qian Yu'an's skin, which was fair and tender, and their faces and features were also well-shaped.
Xu Guiying casually mentioned what had just happened to the third brother.
Song Xinfu chuckled, "That brat is almost thirty and he's only just become sensible."
Xu Guiying remained noncommittal, "By the way, did Songyuan tell you whether the third brother ultimately bought the big one or the small one?"
Song Xinfu: "Big brother, that brat knows how to enjoy himself. Let him pay it back himself."
Xu Guiying quickly soaked her feet in the hot water and asked the old man to pour it. As she was getting ready to go to sleep, Xu Guiying caught a glimpse of the New Year's goods placed outside the door.
When Song Xinfu returned after pouring the water and was about to close the door, he saw Xu Guiying's gaze fixed on that spot.
Song Xinfu: "Thinking about the boss?"
Xu Guiying covered Song Zhiyin with a blanket and said, "It's not Song Zhiyin's style to not go in when you're home."
Song Xinfu fell silent for a moment, then said, "Who cares? Go to sleep with me."
