In the evening, Liu Qianjin and his wife brought Nan Nan to the Xiao family. Chu Jingqiu and Xiao Yihan pushed the child to enjoy the cool air in the courtyard.
As soon as Nan Nan entered the door, she saw the five little kids wearing big red bellybands.
His big eyes lit up immediately, and he excitedly broke free from his mother's hand and rushed towards the quintuplets like a gust of wind.
Liu Qianjin's wife, Wang Yuqiong, looked at Nan Nan's excitement and smiled as she reminded him, "Nan Nan, run slower and don't scare the baby."
Nan Nan listened to his mother's words, slowed down his pace a little, and walked to the quintuplets' car. He gently touched Doudou's little hand, then turned to Ding Ding,
After he touched the five children's hands one by one, he picked up the rattle on the chair and began to tease the quintuplets.
Chu Jingqiu handed them two stools and asked them to sit down. Then he turned to look at Nan Nan and asked with a smile, "Nan Nan, do you really like babies?"
Nan Nan nodded vigorously, looked at Chu Jingqiu expectantly and said, "I like it, Auntie. Can you let them get out of the car? Let's go play hide-and-seek together."
Chu Jingqiu was amused by Nan Nan's words. She couldn't help laughing and said, "Nan Nan, the babies are still young now. They can't walk or talk. When they grow up and learn to walk and talk, they can play with you."
When Nan Nan heard this answer, he lowered his head in disappointment. But after a while, he suddenly raised his head and said excitedly, "Auntie, I'll tell you a secret. We are going to have a baby soon!"
My dad said he would give birth to three babies for me tomorrow, and my great-grandfather and I would take them out to play with your baby tomorrow."
Liu Qianjin shook his head speechlessly, and said to Xiao Yihan with a smile: "Hey, Yihan, you are very capable. You gave birth to five children in one pregnancy, which made our old man envious and he kept urging the birth at home every day.
Nan Nan actually asked me to give birth to three babies for him tomorrow, and said that he and my grandparents would each have one. I told him that your father couldn’t give birth to three even if he tried his best.
Xiao Yihan was also amused by Liu Qianjin's words. He patted Liu Qianjin on the shoulder and said jokingly, "Old Liu, Nannan thought you could turn people into living people!
However, you can work hard and strive to have two babies in three years and three babies in five years, and then Nan Nan’s wish will come true.”
As they were talking and laughing, Uncle Xiao and Aunt Xiao came in holding a little boy about three years old. Behind them was Xiao Yiting, who was wearing a military uniform.
Xiao Yiting and her husband were both military doctors. Since their unit was over a hundred kilometers away from Beijing, they rarely had the opportunity to return home. Chu Jingqiu had only seen Xiao Yiting a few times, at their wedding and during Chinese New Year.
Seeing Xiao Yiting coming, Xiao Yihan and Chu Jingqiu immediately went to greet her. Xiao Yihan said enthusiastically, "Yiting, how come you're back? It's been over a year since I last saw you. Xiaorun has grown so much."
Xiao Yiting smiled and replied, "Yes, brother, sister-in-law, long time no see. I've been busy in the army and haven't been able to come back. This time I happened to be on leave, so I came back with the children."
Wang Yuqiong looked at Xiao Yiting in surprise and said hesitantly, "Nianbei, I'm Yuqiong, don't you recognize me?"
Xiao Yiting was stunned for a moment, looked at Wang Yuqiong carefully for a few times, then looked at Liu Qianjin who was standing beside her, and suddenly realized: "Oh, you are Qianjin's wife, Sister Yuqiong!
I haven't seen you since you got married to Brother Qianjin. I never thought that Brother Qianjin would marry such a beautiful wife.
Sister-in-law, the Nianbei you are talking about is Li Nianbei. A while ago, a military doctor named Li Nianbei was assigned to our hospital from the Military Medical University.
She does look a bit like me, and people often mistake us for each other. Sometimes I even almost think I'm looking in the mirror."
Wang Yuqiong smiled sheepishly, "Yes, her name is Li Nianbei. She's from the Nanshi Military District. When we were little, we both lived in the Nanshi Military District compound. Our families weren't far from each other. I'm two or three years older than her, so we grew up together."
You two look so much alike, practically identical. When I saw you just now, I thought Nianbei had suddenly come here!"
Liu Qianjin said with a smile: "Yuqiong, you must have recognized the wrong person! This is Xiao Yiting, the eldest daughter of Uncle Xiao's family, and she is a twin of Yilin."
Wang Yuqiong carefully examined Xiao Yiting's face. "Yiting looks like Second Uncle Xiao, and somewhat like Yihan. Although she and Yilin are twins, they don't look alike at all."
Xiao Yiting explained with a smile: "Yes, although we are twins, we look completely different. I look like my grandmother's family, and Yilin should look like my grandparents' family."
Liu Qianjin picked up Nannan and said with a smile, "Yuqiong, let's go home first! Yiting often doesn't come home, and now she's finally back, let's have a good chat with the family."
After seeing off Liu Qianjin and his wife, Xiao Yiting couldn't wait to touch the quintuplets' little faces. "Brother, sister-in-law, these little guys are so beautiful," she pointed at Doudou, Dingding and Baobao and said, "These three little guys look like my brother, with his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes."
Then he pointed at Beibei and Xiao Kexiner and said, "These two little ones look like my sister-in-law, with delicate features. They are both very cute!"
After she finished speaking, she shook the travel bag in her hand and said, "I have wanted to come back to see the children for a long time. I have even bought gifts for them, a set of small clothes for each of them, and a small blanket, all made of the best materials.
It’s a pity that I was busy in the army and couldn’t take leave, otherwise I would have come back to see them a long time ago.
However, over the past few months, I've exchanged a lot of milk coupons with my comrades, fearing that the children wouldn't have enough. This time, I brought back a few cans of milk powder. Although it's not much, it's a small token of my appreciation.
