Since they didn’t have to go to work or school, and spent half the night in intimacy, Xinyan and He Jinxuan slept until they woke up naturally.

By the time they got up, everyone else had already had breakfast.

Gu Wanqing was playing with her son in the living room of the front courtyard when she saw her daughter and son-in-law enter: "Aunt Li and Uncle Li have gone out for some errands. Your food is in the kitchen." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Xinyan took her younger brother from Gu Wanqing’s arms: "How about going out with your sister today?"

Little Han Chaojun planted a loving kiss on his sister’s face: "Yes."

Gu Wanqing looked at her two little ones with a gentle smile: "You’re visiting your master today, so it’s better not to take him."

But as soon as she said this, little Han Chaojun protested: "Go, go, must go with sister."

Xinyan burst into laughter: "Look at how anxious my little Junjun is, he can even say four words in a row!"

Thinking about the little guy’s birthday coming up soon, she turned to He Jinxuan: "Make sure to bring back some wood later, I’ll find some carpenters to make some toys for Junjun. This needs to be done quickly."

Old Madam Gu walked in: "If you need carpenters, go to the Wang family at the street corner. Their craftsmanship has been passed down for three generations."

He Jinxuan chimed in: "I’ll contact someone immediately. Before the year ended, the transport team helped someone else move a batch of wood, and I asked the driver to bring some extra back. I planned to use them to make some office desks at the beginning of this year, but I’ll spare you some."

Old Madam Gu, thinking the two would also head to the Du Family, said: "Alright, you two better hurry up and eat, don’t be late."

Obediently, Xinyan prepared to put the little guy down, but he stubbornly clung to her, refusing to let his feet touch the ground: "No, just want sister."

Hearing the little fellow string four words together again, Xinyan excitedly said: "My little Junjun, you’re so amazing! You’ve improved so quickly today. Fine, you can go with sister today; after all, you have your brother-in-law’s shoulders to ride on."

Gu Wanqing playfully scolded: "You’re the one taking on the responsibility, and you just hand it off to Jinxuan? Is that any way to do things?"

Xinyan glanced at He Jinxuan with a smile: "Just practicing taking care of kids."

After saying that, she lowered her head.

But her words put He Jinxuan in a great mood, and he couldn’t help but think of the night before, his face blushing instantly.

Xinyan carried Junjun outside: "Junjun, sister will have a slide built for you in the backyard. Then you can play with other kids, okay?"

Little Han Chaojun tilted his head in confusion: "What’s a ’huadi’?"

Xinyan laughed at her brother’s baby-talk: "Not ’huadi’, it’s a slide. You’ll understand once the carpenter makes it."

As Xinyan was heading to the dining room, He Jinxuan made a phone call: "Hello, Brother Zhang, could you send some wood from our warehouse to the Gu Family’s old house? It’s urgent."

Brother Zhang, who was on the other end, was a retired veteran. Having injured his leg, he couldn’t do heavy work. Although the government provided subsidies, he had three sons to support and a wife in poor health, so he could only do light work at home, making it financially burdening.

After He Jinxuan started his small transport team, he hired Brother Zhang to manage the warehouse.

Hearing it was He Jinxuan, Brother Zhang replied: "Got it, I’ll have someone deliver it right away."

After hanging up, he headed to the dining room.

Meanwhile, the little guy sipped a few more mouthfuls of porridge, got off the chair, took Old Madam Gu’s hand, and looked at Xinyan: "Sister, I’m playing, waiting for you."

Xinyan waved at him: "Alright, go ahead; I’ll call you when I leave."

But the little guy, afraid of being forgotten, stayed in the courtyard, glancing toward the dining room as he played, looking incredibly adorable.

Suddenly, an idea struck Xinyan: with her learning ability, even if she had a baby now, it probably wouldn’t have much impact on her studies. She couldn’t help but smile at this thought.

He Jinxuan placed a steamed dumpling on her plate: "What are you thinking about, looking so happy?"

Xinyan picked up the dumpling and casually said: "If uncles and nephews grow up together, their relationship should be strong, right?"

Hearing this, He Jinxuan’s heart raced: "Yanyan, are you serious?"

But then Xinyan replied: "Just kidding."

He Jinxuan, holding his chopsticks, paused and kept his eyes fixed on Xinyan.

Xinyan playfully glared at him: "Snap out of it, really have no self-control."
