On Sunday, Gong Linglong was waiting at home early. Lu Jingchuan called home before he came back. The four of them ordered a table full of dishes without any hesitation. She went out to buy ingredients at dawn.
"Mother!"
The jeep stopped at the door of the house. As soon as the door opened, the triplets rolled out and twisted their bodies to knock on the door like three little penguins.
"My three darlings, you are finally back."
I haven't seen you for a week and I miss you so much.
Gong Linglong rushed out and hugged the three children in her arms, hugging them tightly and kissing them one by one: "Three stinky babies, do you miss your mother?"
"No." The three brothers answered in unison.
"Really?"
Gong Linglong's eyes were full of smiles. She hugged them and kissed them non-stop, making their heads spin. Then she smiled cheerfully and changed the subject: "We miss you, we miss you, Mom."
"That's more like it."
Satisfied, Gong Linglong let them go with a smile and helped them tidy up their clothes. She smiled brightly and said, "My little uncle just woke up. The Han family's great grandfather and great grandmother are here and are holding my little uncle. You go and say hello to the elders."
The triplets scurried into the house.
Lu Jingchuan was behind her, carrying two bags. Seeing that she only had eyes for her three sons, he looked at her with resentment, "Linglong, didn't you see me?"
"How could you not see it?"
Gong Linglong gave him a hug and a kiss: "Welcome home, my big baby."
“Ahem…”
There was another person behind him, and Ji Wei couldn't help but cough lightly.
Lu Jingchuan was tall and strong, and he stood at the top of the steps, just blocking Ji Wei behind him.
Gong Linglong hadn't really seen him just now, but when she looked over, she saw him standing behind her. She felt a little embarrassed: "Hey, Senior Brother."
"Don't go too far, you two. I'm still alone."
Ji Wei didn't expect his sister-in-law to be so warm and open in private. He was also a little envious of their relationship. He nudged Lu Jingchuan, who was blocking the way, and said, "Big darling, come in."
Lu Jingchuan gritted his teeth, glared at his wife, and said silently, "Let's talk in the room."
He likes his wife to call him "big baby", but she can't say it outside, she has to say it in the bed at home.
Today is a day off. The two elders of the Han family and the younger generations in Kyoto have come to visit little Han Chichi. He is awake now. Old man Han is holding him, and a group of people are watching him.
The triplets started calling out sweetly as soon as they entered the room, and now they squeezed in front of the old man. The three brothers stood on tiptoe to look at him.
"Tsk tsk, big fat strong man."
Ji Wei reached out and touched Chi Chi's chubby face, then looked at the smiling master and said, "Master, this is carved according to your model."
"They look alike, have similar tempers, are very stubborn, have loud voices, and when they cry it's like thunder."
Old Madam Han has been here all week helping to take care of her daughter-in-law and grandson. She has the guards at home send her here every morning and waits for the old man to pick her up after get off work.
"That's what healthy, strong kids do."
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Han family said with a smile, took out some cut rock sugar tangerines from the side, and called out to the triplets: "Chu Ming, Chang Xiao, Peng Ze, come and have some rock sugar tangerines. Your mother prepared them. They are very sweet."
"Thank you, grandma." The triplets went over immediately.
"Did you have fun playing with Dad for a week?" Grandpa Han asked them with a smile.
“It’s fun.”
They like going to the camp very much. Although the living environment is not as comfortable as at home, they like the atmosphere and the unity and cohesion among the soldiers.
Lu Jingchuan had just thrown a pile of dirty clothes into the bathroom and brought over a bowl of hot tea. He said to them, "These three brothers roll around in the snow every day, training before they can even stand. They're not afraid of the cold, and they won't return to the tent even when their faces and hands are frozen red. They insist on going in and out with everyone else. They're very determined and principled."
"Three good seedlings, teach them well."
Grandpa Han liked them very much. He patted his grandson's butt and said, "When Chichi grows up a little, send him for training too. This little guy is healthy and strong, so he should be able to withstand the training."
"We will discipline him later." Little Lu Chuming took the initiative to take on the task.
"You are here to teach me a lesson?" Old Man Han looked at him with a smile.
"He is my uncle and our elder. If we don't scold or beat him now, we won't have the chance in the future." Lu Chuming had a good reason.
"Pfft, haha..."
The whole room burst into laughter. Gong Wantang, who was lying in the room resting, also laughed: "These three brats."
Gong Linglong was very happy and supported her sons: "Mingbao is right. We should beat our uncle as early as possible. If we don't beat him now, when will we do that?"
Jiang Yun sat beside them to rest with her belly bulging, laughing non-stop: "Han Chichi, you're done. You won't be able to beat them in a fight in the future. You're not necessarily smarter than them, so you can only rely on your status as an elder to protect yourself."
"Chichi at least has the blessing of being an elder, but our family will suffer the most in the future." Lu Jingyang can now imagine the scene of the child crying and complaining.
Jiang Yun held her belly and asked the triplets with a smile, "Mingbao, you guys shouldn't beat your younger siblings when they're very young, right?"
"My younger brother doesn't have to be beaten when he is a child. I can beat him at any time. Even if he is a hundred years old, I can still beat him." Gong Pengze answered her.
"Ha ha..."
The triplets were very clever and made everyone laugh again.
"Aunt, we won't beat your little sister. The three of us will protect her together." Lu Changxiao answered while eating fruit.
"Oh, our Xiaoxiao is so well-behaved." Jiang Yun touched his head lovingly.
The Han family is usually busy with work and it is difficult for them to find time to get together. Today they came here as guests. Gong Linglong invited everyone to have lunch here at noon and started working early with Sister Yu.
Today's menu was decided in advance by Lu Jingchuan and his two sons last night. It included the braised pork and chicken egg rolls that the triplets wanted, the cured pork feet and cured pork that Lu Jingchuan and Ji Wei liked, two large plates of beef dumplings, a large pot of beef brisket and potatoes, two large bowls of spicy garlic shrimp, and two or three dishes of seasonal vegetables such as radish and cabbage.
It was time for dinner outside, and Han Ji brought the confinement meal into the house. There were four or five dishes on the small tray, and the portion of each dish was not very large. They were all served in small bowls.
“So many dishes.”
Gong Wantang recovered well, washed her hands, and walked to the table to eat.
"Linglong made this just for you. It's light and low in salt."
There was a small bowl of clear chicken soup, a small bowl of boiled shrimp, a small bowl of beef dumplings without any seasoning, braised pork and egg rolls, and a small plate of vegetables.
Gong Wantang's appetite was piqued just by looking at it. She picked up her chopsticks and started eating, urging him, "Aji, you should go eat too. The brat will probably be waking up for milk soon. Bring him over when he wakes up."
"Okay, drink all the soup."
