After the market day, it was almost Chinese New Year, so Grandma Su and the others packed up and went home.
But Lin's mother and the others stayed in the tenement.
Yes, considering that there are many children and moving would be troublesome, the Lin family parents plan to spend the Spring Festival in the tenement this year.
Su He was overjoyed to hear this.
In fact, after winter arrived, Lin's parents mostly lived in the courtyard. Lin's mother didn't have to work and was too lazy to go back and forth, while Lin's father felt that living at home was too lonely, so he simply moved in with them.
So the courtyard became much livelier.
The two families get along quite well.
Grandma Su told her privately that if it weren't for the large number of children, she probably would have gone back with Grandpa Su long ago, since it's best for Grandma to take care of the children.
However, Lin's mother was very grateful to her and took good care of her. She even asked her carefully about her experience in taking care of children, which made Lin feel needed.
Therefore, Su He was very grateful to Lin's mother.
And on the day of the Lunar New Year, which happened to be a holiday, they finally didn't have to go to work.
The family got up early in the morning and started getting ready.
They cleaned together in the morning, then Su He and Lin's mother cooked, Lin's father wrote couplets, Yuan Yuan studied along with them, and Lin Jingyan did odd jobs.
Before long, someone knocked on the door. It was a neighbor from the tenement. They had heard that Lin's father was writing couplets and came to ask him for help, since they all knew he was a cultured man.
Lin's father did not refuse and quickly finished writing the couplets, which were all in line with the current situation. The writing style was not obvious, but the handwriting was good, and everyone was very happy.
The rest of the process was similar to previous years: the whole family made dumplings together, and afterwards they sat down to chat and play cards.
However, we have two more little ones in the family this year. They are seven months old now and can roll over, so someone has to watch them all the time.
Fortunately, Dahei, the cat that never goes home, still knows to come back for the New Year. So Suhe assigned it a task: to help look after the children and to meow at them if they move.
Dahei had a lot of fun outside this winter and hadn't come back much. He felt a little guilty and didn't dare to object. After hearing this, he agreed and obediently went to look after the children.
...
Another year has passed.
During the Spring Festival, things are the same as usual: people visit each other to exchange New Year's greetings, but people still have to go to work.
Lin Jingshuo and Shu Qing, the couple, still haven't returned this year.
However, quite a few things were sent back.
Lin's mother felt sorry for Shu Qing's hard pregnancy and sent her a lot of things. Su He did the same, sending her a lot of food and supplies as well.
My second sister, Lin Jinghong, is four months pregnant. This is her first pregnancy since giving birth to her daughter, and she is being very careful. It is said that she has also applied for a transfer to a less demanding department at work.
...
Grandma Su and the others returned on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, mainly because they were worried that it would be too hard for Lin's mother to take care of three children by herself during the day.
However, Yuan Yuan is older now and much more sensible. She can help take care of her younger siblings.
But sometimes Lin's mother couldn't bear it and would take the initiative to let him go out to play with Da Mao and the others.
Meanwhile, after Su He returned to work after the New Year, she discovered that another case related to human trafficking had emerged.
One day, an old man came to the police station to report that he suspected his granddaughter had been abducted.
The police took it seriously immediately after hearing this, but after hearing the details, no one really believed it.
Because he said his granddaughter was married off, how does that relate to human trafficking?
