"Oh, there’s this too." Ni Yang took out a paper bag.
Little Ni Yun pulled a brown teddy bear from the paper bag, "Wow! Such a cute little bear!"
Ni Yang continued, "There are two teddy bears in total, the other one is for your older niece."
Zhao Yu exclaid with delight, "Do I get one too?"
Although Zhao Yu is nineteen years old in terms of biological age, ntally she’s still a child, not much older than Little Ni Yun.
"Mhm," Ni Yang nodded.
Little Ni Yun passed the other teddy bear to Zhao Yu, "This one’s for my older niece! Look, our bears are identical! They must be twins!"
Zhao Yu nodded, "They look so alike, they’ve got to be twins! Yunyun, let’s na them!"
"Let’s call it Auntie!"
Zhao Yu pretended not to hear, "I’ll na my bear Dongdong!"
"Then I’ll call mine Xiuxiu!" Little Ni Yun followed up, "Put their nas together, and it’s ’Dongxi’ (east and west, things)!"
Just at that mont, Shangguan Xi and Ni Cuihua ca down from upstairs.
Seeing Ni Yang, Shangguan Xi said in surprise, "Yangyang is back!"
Ni Yang was also surprised, "Sister Xiaoxi, you’re ho too!"
"Yeah," Shangguan Xi nodded, "Your brother-in-law is on a business trip, and I was bored at ho by myself, so I ca back."
Following behind, Ni Cuihua said, "Yangyang, you must be hungry after getting off the plane, right? What would you like to eat? I’ll make it for you."
"Is there any leftover porridge from this morning? Right now, I just want a bowl of plain porridge with so pickles."
Having spent over half a month abroad, Ni Yang wasn’t nostalgic for much, except for China’s plain porridge and pickles.
"There is, I’ll serve you right now."
The Wu Family.
Old Mrs. Wu was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and Wu Chenjun, carrying a briefcase, walked in from outside, clearly tired from his journey.
"Grandma, I’m back."
"My eldest grandson is back!" Old Mrs. Wu was very excited as she turned around and hugged Wu Chenjun.
Wu Chenjun took off his suit and looked around, "Where’s Xiaoxi? Isn’t she supposed to be resting these days? Why isn’t she at ho?"
"She went to her parents’ house." Old Mrs. Wu continued, "I think Xiaoxi might be angry with ."
"What happened?" Wu Chenjun looked puzzled at Old Mrs. Wu.
"The older one gets, the more one talks, just like a tree’s roots grow deeper with age... The more one talks, the more annoying one becos..."
Wu Chenjun frowned slightly, "Grandma, don’t say that. No one here resents you."
Old Mrs. Wu laughed, "I know no one resents ! I was just making a comnt! It’s a free country now, can’t a person even speak their mind?"
Wu Chenjun then asked, "By the way, where are my parents? Aren’t they at ho either?"
"They’ve gone on a trip abroad! Really, I have to say, your parents are sothing else, with hearts so big they can think about traveling abroad at a ti like this! They don’t act like parents at all!"
"Did my parents upset you?" Wu Chenjun asked.
Old Mrs. Wu said, "Not exactly, I’m just speaking my mind!"
"Grandma, what’s really the matter?" Wu Chenjun felt sothing was off with Old Mrs. Wu.
Old Mrs. Wu shook her hand, "Nothing! I’m very well, eating well, sleeping well, it’s just one thing that’s not so good."
"What’s not good?" Wu Chenjun asked.
"You should know." Old Mrs. Wu looked up at Wu Chenjun.
Wu Chenjun smiled, "How would I know if you don’t tell ?"
Old Mrs. Wu frowned, "Don’t try to evade the issue with ! Do you really not know what’s not good?"
"Grandma, just say it directly! Whatever it is, as long as I can do it, I’ll sort it out perfectly for you!"
"Really?" Old Mrs. Wu’s eyes brightened.
Wu Chenjun nodded, "Really!"
"Then I’ll just say it!"
"Go ahead."
Old Mrs. Wu continued, "The only thing that’s not good now is the lack of a great-grandchild! You and Xiaoxi have been married for so long, how co there’s still no sign of pregnancy?"
Normally, a married couple would beco pregnant within a month or two.
It’s been almost a year since Wu Chenjun and Shangguan Xi married, and yet there’s been no news. How could she, as an elder, not be anxious?
She’s on the verge of passing away, and her only wish before she goes is to hold her great-grandson in her arms!
She’s been eagerly waiting for so long, yet no good news has co from Shangguan Xi!
"Grandma, don’t be anxious! Xiaoxi and I are still young, we can have children at any ti, and besides, I don’t want to rush into having children so soon! Raising a child isn’t like raising a cat or a dog, when it cos to eating, drinking, pooping, and peeing, everything must be taken care of, and we’re both so busy with work, who would look after the child then?"
