"You two little birthday boys, wash your hands and have dinner."
Zhou Li smiled and took his two precious grandsons out from the pile of gifts.
Xiaoman's round eyebrows were curved into crescent shapes and she had a bright smile.
"Oh, grandma can't hold you anymore."
The two children are very sturdy and strong. It is very difficult for Zhou Li and Xu Qingluo to lift them up. Their waists cannot bear the weight after lifting them for two hours each time.
Even Zhou's father sometimes had a hard time holding his two grandsons.
The child is getting bigger, heavier and taller.
Every time Zhou's father and Zhou Li feel the changes in their two grandsons, they can feel more that they are really older.
In a few years, they really won't be able to hold their two grandchildren anymore.
Eating, making wishes, blowing out candles, opening gifts, Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan were exhausted after going through the whole birthday process.
The women in the family helped to clean up the dishes before leaving.
The men talked about some major national issues, and then left with their children and wives.
Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan acted like little masters. Knowing that their mother was pregnant and not feeling well, they personally saw them off to the door.
"Walk slowly!"
Xiaoman acted like a little host. He shook hands with everyone one by one and said farewell words just like his grandfather did.
"Come again next time."
Xiaoman's face, which looked exactly like Zhou Yuheng's, was tightly held together, as if she was afraid that she would break in the next second.
"Goodbye!"
Xiaoyuan held her brother's hand and waved goodbye to everyone.
The two brothers, one was responsible for negotiations and the other for seeing off the guests, worked in perfect harmony.
As soon as everyone left, Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan immediately let themselves go and ran into the living room to continue opening their presents.
Xu Qinglu accompanied the two children in opening their presents. She was so sleepy that she couldn't hold on until halfway through.
"Wife, I'll accompany them."
"Go and rest first."
Zhou Yuheng quickly took over the girl who was accompanying the two children.
Xu Qinglu nodded and handed the task of accompanying the child to Zhou Yuheng.
"good."
"Mom, go take a rest."
"Just have Dad accompany us."
Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan were very understanding. They saw their mother yawning, which meant they didn't need her company.
"Okay, then you should go to bed early."
"Okay."
"I'm fine too."
Xu Qinglu kissed his two sons, gave Zhou Yuheng a few words of advice, and then went upstairs to take a shower and rest.
After Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan’s birthdays, the two children’s growth rate suddenly increased.
Not only did his body start to grow stronger, but his speech and actions also became more organized, and he looked like a little adult.
Moreover, those kind words were spoken one after another.
They even care about the ants on the road.
———
As soon as Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan’s birthdays were over, New Year’s Day came quietly.
Nowadays, there are markets everywhere.
On New Year's Day, people worship gods and set off firecrackers, and the whole Kyoto is extremely lively.
Zhou Li also bought candles and yellow paper and came to worship his ancestors and the local gods. After worshiping the gods, he set off a big firecracker.
“Firecrackers are setting off!”
Zhou's father shouted into the house, Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan immediately covered their ears, and Zhou Yuheng covered Xu Qingluo's ears.
The firecrackers crackled and the whole compound was bombarded by the sound of firecrackers.
After the firecrackers were set off, Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan went to pick up the remaining firecrackers. They wanted to stick them in the soil and light them.
"no."
Xu Qingluo immediately became nervous when she saw her two sons' dangerous actions.
Zhou Yuheng quickly threw the small firecrackers out of his two sons' hands.
Don't underestimate the power of small firecrackers. If you throw them into a sewer or under a car, it will be no joke.
Zhou Yuheng slapped the two children on their buttocks.
