When Gao Weishan and Lu Xiaojun returned, Mo Ziyang and Yan Yuting were distributing gifts to everyone.
They had already found out who was in the family and prepared a gift for each person.
Grandpa Liu and the siblings Lu Xiaoqin and Lu Xiaojun were all included, but Xiao Fan was the only one left out.
Xiao Fan usually stayed in the county town and didn't come back. Even when he did come back, he didn't stay at home. So when Wen Moxue asked how many people were in the family, she didn't tell them that Xiao Fan was there too.
Fortunately, I had the foresight to prepare extra gifts.
The gifts for Xiao Biyun and Wen Moxue were silk scarves and paper fans, which were clearly prepared by Yan Yuting.
The gift prepared for Gao Weishan was Longjing tea, for Lu Xiaoqin it was a silk scarf, and for Lu Xiaojun it was a fountain pen.
What was given to Xiao Fan was a bag of lotus root starch and a large bag of dried radish from Xiaoshan.
I brought a lot of lotus root starch and dried radish, just in case I had a close friend or relative and didn't have a proper gift to give them.
And you know what? Everyone loves this dried radish; it's a great accompaniment to rice. When it was served at night, Wen Moxue ate an extra half bowl of rice.
As Lu Xiaoqin ate, she observed, "This dried radish is crisp and tender, salty with a hint of sweetness, and tastes very delicious. How is it made?"
When this was mentioned, Mo Ziyang said proudly, "My mother-in-law made all of this. What do you think? Isn't her skill good?"
Everyone nodded in agreement; the craftsmanship was indeed excellent.
Yan Yuting smiled and said, "I can make it too. If you want to eat it later, we can make it ourselves. But I can't make it as well as my mom, so please don't mind."
"How could I possibly dislike it? I'm overjoyed."
Wen Moxue thought that if she used the radishes produced by the space, even if her skills weren't that good, the taste wouldn't be any worse than what they were eating now.
After dinner, Lu Yuan took Mo Ziyang and his wife to He Shenghua's house.
First, they went to the brigade's supply and marketing cooperative, greeted He Shenghua and his wife, and gave them a bag of lotus root starch and dried radish before heading to the house.
The house was renovated less than two years ago, but it still looks very new and is decorated very warmly.
Lu Yuan and Wen Moxue changed the curtains, and the quilt prepared on the kang was also a brand new cotton quilt with a new cover.
The house is clean and tidy, so they don't need to clean or tidy up themselves; they can just bring their bags and move in.
The two were very satisfied and delighted.
In addition, He Shenghua and the others had already moved out the tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and other utensils, and Lu Yuan had prepared new ones for them.
"Since you said you'd be staying for a while, we've prepared a set of pots and pans for you. Rice, flour, and cooking oil are all in the cupboard, and Xiaojun has also prepared a lot of firewood, which is piled up behind the kitchen. If you're too lazy to come to our place for breakfast in the morning, just eat something at home. You can come over for lunch and dinner."
The couple felt embarrassed to trouble them every day, so they kept saying no.
Lu Yuan said, "It's just a matter of adding two pairs of chopsticks for you to go over. Anyway, you've already seen Xiaoqin's cooking skills. If it suits your taste, come to my house for a meal. It's no trouble at all for a family."
Fang Zheng doesn't cook for himself and his wife, so it's not his problem.
When Mo Ziyang and his wife thought about Lu Xiaoqin's cooking skills, their originally firm resolve wavered instantly.
Mo Ziyang smiled and said, "Then we'll give you living expenses every month from now on."
Lu Yuan glanced at him sideways, "You've come all this way, and I'm asking you for living expenses after a few meals? Is that reasonable?"
"But we're together every day!"
"What's wrong with you two again? When Xiaoxue gives birth to quadruplets and the family is too busy, do you expect me to charge you for coming over to help?"
The two of them came at this time for two reasons: first, to avoid harassment from Yan Yuting's ex-boyfriend; and second, because Wen Moxue was about to give birth to quadruplets and needed help, so they came to lend a hand.
“That’s impossible!” Mo Ziyang replied without hesitation.
"That settles it. We're all family, so let's not be like strangers."
Since things had come to this point, Mo Ziyang and Yan Yuting didn't say anything more.
The couple settled down in Changhe Brigade.
After a few days of leisure, a call came from Hangzhou: Qu Wenjing had given birth.
They were twins, a boy and a girl, and the Wen family was overjoyed.
Mo Yitao couldn't hide her joy, and her voice on the phone was very cheerful.
"Congratulations!" Lu Yuan said cheerfully.
Congratulations to you!
Mo Yitao smiled so wide her eyes disappeared.
She also reminded Lu Yuan, "Your sister-in-law is half a month early. Twins usually come early. Xiaoxue's due date is a month and a half later, but she is carrying quadruplets, so it could be a month early. Be careful during this time and don't leave her alone."
"I know, Mom!"
They did the same thing without needing to be reminded. Ever since her belly started growing, Wen Moxue had never been without someone by her side.
"By the way, Mom, Dongzi and the others went to Hangzhou a couple of days ago. Xiaoxue and I prepared gifts for the two children. Dongzi will deliver the gifts to the courtyard later. Could you please give them to my older brother and sister-in-law?"
He and his wife prepared quite a few gifts, including two boxes of baby formula, which they took from their virtual space, using Gao Weishan as an excuse.
In addition, there are many baby products, such as clothes, blankets, and bottles.
In addition, a gold safety lock was prepared for each of the two children, which was quite valuable.
"Okay, okay, I'll say thank you on their behalf."
Mo Yitao was very happy, and then brought up the old topic again, "I will come to your place after the baby is a month old."
"Mom, it's okay. With Cousin Ziyang and his wife, and my parents, Xiaoqin, and Xiaojun at home, we have enough people. On the other hand, you have twins who need to be taken care of, and Xiaohui too."
Mo Yitao had already made arrangements.
"Wenjing's mother will come over to help take care of the child. I can bring Xiaohui to your place then."
Her daughter gave birth to quadruplets, so she absolutely had to go and visit them.
"Okay, call ahead and I'll pick you up from the county."
"Then don't forget." This clearly indicates that she remembered the last time Lu Yuan forgot about her and didn't pick her up at the station.
Lu Yuan blushed and said, "Don't worry, Mom, it won't happen again."
After that day, apart from Wen Moxue herself, everyone else became more or less nervous, worried that the due date would come early.
Even Sanbao's brows have been furrowed these past two days, his chubby little face has become increasingly serious, and he dares not leave Wen Moxue's side for even a moment.
Although he knew Gao Weishan was a skilled doctor, he was also aware of the risks involved in childbirth, let alone with quadruplets.
Even Lu Yuan couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled him aside and muttered something under his breath.
"Son, it's my wife who's about to give birth, not yours. Why are you more nervous than I am?"
Sanbao rolled his eyes at his unreliable father, as if he, a two-year-old, had a wife.
