Li Jing’an wasn’t angry at all. She looked at her wet clothes, then looked up at Da Bao’s toothless smile, and tears of excitement fell.

"Ranran, did he, did he just give me a child too?"

God knows how much she longs to have a child of her own.

Wen Ran: "???"

She was bewildered.

Looking at the emotional, tearful Li Jing’an, Wen Ran really wanted to shake her shoulders and advise her to calm down.

Sister, don’t be superstitious!

She gave birth to a child, not a child of the Childbirth Goddess.

Peeing, it’s just this little rascal being naughty!

But seeing how happy Li Jing’an was, Wen Ran couldn’t say anything discouraging and sighed, letting Mrs. Xiao find her clothes and helped Li Jing’an change into them.

Li Jing’an changed her clothes and held Da Bao, so fond that she wouldn’t let go.

Once done admiring the older child, she moved on to admire the younger one.

She even hoped the little one would pee on her again.

Wen Ran: "!"

Knowing Wen Ran’s thought, Wen Ran firmly said no.

There weren’t many clothes, and they couldn’t withstand the kids peeing like this.

That morning, Zhang Quansheng and Li Jing’an didn’t leave, and Mrs. Xiao kept them, ran to the neighbor’s house, bought two hens, and came back to cook a stew.

As for why they didn’t use their own chickens...

The already empty chicken coop was chilly with the wind blowing through.

After Wen Ran gave birth to twins, the Xiao Family’s three chickens had long been slaughtered by Mrs. Xiao, never waited until now.

Ever since she learned the young couple’s income was substantial, Mrs. Xiao was generous with ingredients when cooking.

People live for just a few decades.

Having worked hard for more than half a lifetime, the remaining years should be better for oneself.

If not living extravagantly, at least one should eat well and be full.

Normally, Zhang Quansheng wouldn’t stay to eat at someone’s house, avoiding giving people gossip.

But this time...

Firstly, Li Jing’an genuinely liked those two kids, and secondly...

Xiao Chenye was very calm, "Brother Quansheng, I sold my job; even if I eat at home, it’s no big deal, right."

Zhang Quansheng thought Xiao Chenye made sense.

He nodded, "Then we might trouble you."

"It’s not a trouble, just a meal."

Besides, if you hadn’t driven us home, my wife might still have to hold the kids and freeze."

He’s grateful from the bottom of his heart.

"What do you plan to do afterward?"

"Do what?" Xiao Chenye scratched his head, "I haven’t thought about it yet, I’ll wait for my wife’s admission notice and decide.

At that time, we’ll move to Capital City, and what to do depends on what’s lacking there.

If it can make money, I’ll do it.

Besides, I’m still young and strong; even if things don’t go well, I can haul big bags at the docks to earn enough to support the family."

Zhang Quansheng laughed, "With that mindset, you’ll succeed no matter what you do."

"Then I’ll take your good words."

"You will succeed."

In the eyes of this young man, he saw ambition.

Smart people with ambition achieve twice the results with half the effort.

The Xiao Family, being large in number, with everyone saying something, made the situation a bit uncontrollable with their chatter.

No matter what they did, it was lively, and this environment made the couple, who had been quiet for so long, feel a bit surreal.

How long had it been since they last saw this kind of bustling atmosphere?

The couple looked at each other and both smiled.

The Xiao Family is truly warm.

Bao Wenxuan knew Wen Ran had returned home, so she carried the rabbit she made to add to the Xiao Family’s dishes just as they were starting dinner.

She was used to eating at the Xiao Family, didn’t treat herself as an outsider, went to the kitchen to scoop a bowl of rice for herself, and grabbed chopsticks.

She walked over and quite naturally bumped Xiao Chenxing and Hongguo with her hip to make room for herself, sat down promptly, and started eating.

This move left Zhang Quansheng and Li Jing’an dumbfounded.

The days of this family are truly relaxed.

Next, Li Jing’an saw an even more carefree Xiao Family.

Nothing else, Shen Yueyue also showed up.

At that time, as the Xiao Family had just finished eating, Shen Yueyue saw Bao Wenxuan leisurely picking her teeth under the eaves and got really irritated.

"What did I tell you before? If you come over, remember to give me a shout; why do you sneak in again?

You sly bixch, shameless, always trying to show off, I’ll strangle you now."

She rushed forward and soon began wrestling with Bao Wenxuan.

Li Jing’an hadn’t seen such interactions before, got startled, and stood up to break them apart.

Mrs. Xiao grabbed Li Jing’an, "Don’t go, these girls are always together, either fighting or bickering.

We’re used to it, if you go, you might accidentally get hurt."

When kids fight, they’re careless.

They know each other’s strengths and tactics, and fighting is somewhat precise.

But someone like Li Jing’an, who hasn’t experienced their fights, would definitely suffer losses.

At that time, her fair, tender hands might end up scratched red and bloody, which wouldn’t look good.

"Is it really okay?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"It’s fine."

Seeing Li Jing’an worried, Mrs. Xiao had to send her trusty ally Xiao Chenxing to mediate.

Unfortunately, the mediator wasn’t kind either; she tried to break them up but got scratched by someone.

She immediately exploded like a firecracker, soaring through the roof.

Originally, it was a fight between two people, now it’s a three-way battle.

Mrs. Xiao: "..."

Li Jing’an: "..."

The two exchanged glances, Mrs. Xiao sheepishly.

Haha, seems like it backfired.

The trio fought back and forth, and the chair couldn’t hold them, soon they toppled to the ground.

The three rolled into rice balls in the snow.

Li Jing’an couldn’t sit still anymore, "I think we need to pull them apart."

Indeed.

This isn’t summer, rolling on the ground, at worst, would just cover oneself in mud.

It’s the dead of winter now, and disease comes from cold, as the saying goes.

They’re all grown girls, rolling in the snow is harmful, they might suffer when their periods come later.

But the tussle was quite tangled.

Mrs. Xiao came over, but didn’t know where to start.

Hongguo came to help, but Shen Yueyue was mischievous and pulled Hongguo by the ankle.

"Thud~"

Another one fell.

Now it’s really a mess.

Xiao Chenye considered intervening, but these girls were hard to manage.

Finally, it was Wen Ran, bundled up like a bear, wearing layers of clothing, a hat, fully armed, only her eyes showing.

She came out and firmly disciplined the four.
