She has lost her freedom, and returning to Huazhong University of Science and Technology and Medical University has become a luxury; if she is not allowed to be comfortable, then they can't expect to be comfortable either.
Yan Rushan didn't know what to say, but as long as his wife was happy, he was happy. "So, should we call Comrade Xi Nian now?"
"Okay." Zhong Yuxiu nodded. Yan Rushan walked to the phone, dialed the headquarters, and after a transfer, he was connected to Xi Nian's office. "Hello, Comrade Xi Nian, hello, this is Yan Rushan."
Xi Nian smiled and said, "Hello, Comrade Yan. Why are you calling me? Comrade Zhong, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"My Yuxiu has recently developed a new product. You guys should come over and take a look."
He didn't say what it was specifically. Xi Nian's smile froze on the other end of the phone. It's only been a short time, and there are results again?
"Hello, Comrade Xi Nian, are you still there?"
"Yes, yes. I'm going to be delayed a bit here. I'll come over tomorrow evening."
"Can."
After hanging up the phone, Yan Rushan returned to the sofa and sat down, telling her what Xi Nian said; he found some light topics to chat with her, and then slowly his thoughts followed his wife.
The couple didn't have anything in particular to talk about. They just talked about whatever came to mind and said whatever came to mind. It was quite relaxing.
"You're up! It's just right, time for lunch." Yan Guofeng walked in holding his great-grandchildren. The little guys were so tired that they sat down on the ground and couldn't get up. Yan Guofeng was angry and amused. This was simply cheating!
"I came to see your three little boys. They just came outside with me and refused to leave. I insisted on holding them. But could I hold all three of them? I finally coaxed them back, and they just plopped down on the ground."
Yuxiu stood up and walked forward, followed closely by Yan Rushan. The two of them picked up the children and placed them on the carpeted floor.
"Grandpa, take their stroller with you when you go out next time. You can rest on it when you are tired. It would be too tiring for me to carry the baby back." She could do it, but she didn't want to be a strong woman outside.
Yan Guofeng said, "That car is too big. It's easy to drive on a flat surface, but it can't go downhill or uphill, especially where there are steps."
"I know. So, try not to go up or downhill. When you come back, just call out and someone will help you bring the children in."
Yan Guofeng: ...It seems to make sense.
"Then bring it with you next time?"
"Take them with you." Yan Rushan said, "Otherwise, you will have to drag them along with your old arms and legs."
Yan Guofeng really wanted to give his grandson a glare. This kid had a bad mouth since he was young. "Just shut up, it makes me angry."
Yan Rushan smiled helplessly, "If you don't like to hear me talk, I won't talk anymore. Do you want to eat something? Or wash your hands and eat right away?"
"Eat." Yan Guofeng said firmly.
"That's fine." Yan Rushan stood up and went to the kitchen. After entering the kitchen, he called Wang Daya and others, "Grandpa is back. It's time to eat. Let's set the table."
After he finished speaking, he did not leave immediately, but walked towards the cupboard.
Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi nodded, "Okay, we'll serve the food right away."
The kitchen became busy for a while, some people were serving dishes and some were serving soup. It was easier to get things done with more people. After Yan Rushan finished washing the dishes, they also brought the food and soup to the table.
Yan Rushan sent the dishes out and set them aside, "Grandpa, daughter-in-law, it's time to eat."
Zhong Yuxiu in the hall looked up and said to the old man, "Grandpa, go wash your hands first."
"Okay." Yan Guofeng replied with just one word, then turned and walked towards the bathroom. He soon came out with slightly damp hands, "Yuxiu, go wash your hands. Let them play by themselves."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded slightly, touched her sons' little heads, turned around, went to the bathroom to wash her hands, and came out, then went into the restaurant with the old man and sat down; Wang Daya and others followed.
Yan Rushan poured a bowl of soup for each of them and a bowl for himself before sitting down.
"Let's eat."
Yan Guofeng spoke and picked up some food with his chopsticks, and then the others started to eat. They were just eating when three children who were playing in the hall smelled the fragrance of the food and came over happily.
"Mother."
"dad."
"eat."
There were three little kids standing at the door of the restaurant. Everyone glanced at them and almost spit out their food.
Zhong Yuxiu put down the bowl and chopsticks in her hands, walked quickly to her sons and squatted down, "My dears, why are you here? Are you hungry?"
"Their complementary food is still in the steamer, and it will take a while before they can eat it." Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi felt very uncomfortable seeing this. The meal prepared for them today was not ready yet, but they had already eaten it. As a result, the three children were left hungry.
To be honest, it was their lack of consideration as nannies.
Zhong Yuxiu waved her hand. "Shouldn't they be able to eat something salty by now?"
"You can eat it, but it's okay to eat less." Wang Daya nodded repeatedly.
"That's fine, Comrade Wang, Comrade Gong, please bring them three sets of bowls and spoons." He stretched out his hands, holding a little kid in one hand, and the other kid followed behind into the restaurant happily.
Yan Rushan stood up and helped her put her sons on the empty seats at the dining table. "They are too young and can only eat while standing."
"It's okay, it's not impossible to eat while standing. Let them drink some soup first. After their complementary food is ready, they can have the main meal." Zhong Yuxiu felt distressed. On weekdays when they were eating, the three of them would play in the hall and would not make any noise. That was because they were also eating and would not make any noise after finishing their meal.
Their complementary food was not ready today, but they came here smelling the delicious food. Looking at them like this, they looked so pitiful, and their mothers were so heartbroken.
Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi brought over three sets of bowls and spoons, and Zhong Yuxiu personally served three bowls of soup and placed them in front of them.
"Drink slowly, my dears. You will have your main meal later. Tell me what you want to eat. You can only eat it if I agree. Do you understand?"
"Okay." Li Ji nodded.
Li Minglizhen nodded and grinned at her, "Be obedient!"
"Yes, my dear children, be obedient." Turning around, Zhong Yuxiu returned to her seat, took her own bowl and chopsticks, and called Yan Rushan, "Move my chair over here, I'll sit with the children; you go eat over there."
Yan Rushan brought a chair over for her, and the three of them sat together; the three children laughed happily, which made Zhong Yuxiu, as a mother, feel distressed and sad.
I didn't mean to blame them, but I felt very sad.
It was the first time that Li Ji and his friends sat down to eat with their mother. They were very well behaved and did not ask for anything they had never eaten before. They ate whatever their mother served them. However, the meat and vegetables that Zhong Yuxiu served them had almost no chili or salt.
They ate with relish, as if a door to a new world had been opened; it turned out there were so many delicious foods, and they didn’t want to eat the delicious ones they had already eaten.
So, after dinner, Wang Daya and Gong Zhaodi brought them their complementary food.
The three little guys sat at the small table, pursed their lips, stared at the complementary food on the table, and refused to touch it.
