Chapter 551: Chapter 546: Returning Home
After Chu Molin opened the door, the whole family was sitting on chairs.
“Mom, hold Yu Ze for a moment, I’ll go make the bed for Xue’er to rest.” Chu Molin placed his son in his mother-in-law’s arms and went to the bedroom to prepare the bed for his wife to rest.
“Here, hold Yu Chen for a moment.” Qin Yu put Yu Chen in his father’s arms when he saw his brother-in-law’s actions.
“Look how energetic these two kids are!” Nangong Shulan looked at her two grandsons with a big smile.
These were the first and second grandsons of their generation in the family.
“They are indeed energetic, and both children look exactly alike.” Qin Lei looked at the identical grandsons – Qin Xue and Qin Yu didn’t look alike when they were little, and if he hadn’t seen the two children being born, he would have thought they were switched.
After Molin finished making the bed, he took the changed sheets to the bathroom.
“Xue’er, the bed is ready, go and rest.” Chu Molin came out of the bathroom, stood by his wife’s side and softly spoke to her.
“Okay, Mom and Dad, I’ll go and rest; if you guys are tired, take a break too.” Qin Xue gently smiled at her husband.
Qin Xue didn’t mind her parents holding her son – they were happy holding him.
She just hoped the children wouldn’t be spoiled, or she would suffer in the future.
It’s easy for babies to become accustomed to being held – just a few extra cuddles and they can’t be separated. If they’re not held, they cry fiercely, which can drive people crazy.
“Go on, rest well and take care of yourself; I’ll call you when dinner is ready.” Nangong Shulan looked at her eldest daughter tenderly and smiled.
“Okay, thank you, Mom.” Without hesitation, Qin Xue knew her task now was to rest and recuperate so she could do what she wanted.
“Mom, Dad, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Mei, I’m going to work now; please take care of the children and Xue’er.” Chu Molin only took two days off, and today he should have reported back for training. However, he worried about his wife and child, so he asked Mr. Xie for half a day off.
“Okay, go on, we’re here at home; don’t worry about the kids and Qin Xue – we’ll take good care of them.” Qin Lei reassured his son-in-law.
“Okay, thank you, Dad.” Chu Molin said before grabbing his hat and belt and leaving.
“I’ll go cook.” Qin Jiale stood up and announced.
“Lele can cook now?” Nangong Shulan smiled at her youngest daughter.
“Yes, my sister taught me.” Qin Jiale didn’t deny it – of course, the taste of her food wasn’t as delicious as her sister’s. But her progress was very impressive.
“Our Lele is so capable.” Nangong Shulan gave her daughter a thumbs up.
“Mom.” Qin Jiale’s face turned red; she was rarely praised like this by her parents.
“Hehe, you’re shy now?” Nangong Shulan laughed as she watched her youngest daughter walk away.
“Mom and Dad, did you rush over as soon as you received the telegram I sent home?” Qin Yu sat next to his parents.
“Yes, we were worried that you and your sister wouldn’t be able to take care of your elder sister properly.” Qin Lei answered his son.
“Dad, are my little sister and I so bad that you can’t trust us?” Qin Yu was a bit helpless.
“It’s not that you’re bad, it’s just that after all, your sister has given birth and needs proper care; otherwise, she might develop health problems later.” Nangong Shulan explained to her son.
“I see. Fortunately, my brother-in-law has been on leave these past two days and hasn’t needed to work; otherwise, my little sister would be too busy on her own.” Qin Yu felt it was exhausting to take care of three people alone.
“What about you? Why are you leaving it all to your sister?” Qin Lei asked with a stern face.
“Dad, don’t be angry; my sister opened a shop for me, and I have to look after it.” Qin Yu felt helpless – why did sons have a lower status than daughters in their family?
“When did this happen?” Nangong Shulan asked her son.
“It happened recently.” Qin Yu told his parents the story of how Qin Xue helped him open a shop.
