Chapter 1720 Great-Grandpa, Come Quickly to Save Us

To their surprise, this was not the end of the matter.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year this year, we were supposed to have dinner at my uncle's house.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they smelled the fragrance that filled the air.

Hearing the commotion, my aunt came out to greet me: "Come in quickly, come in quickly."

Chu Xue joked, "Auntie, what delicious food did you make? I could smell the aroma from outside the gate."

Auntie smiled and said, "It smells delicious, that's why. This is a stew I specially learned from someone. I guarantee you'll all love it. I stewed extra today so you can all take some with you when you leave."

Chu Xue laughed and said, "That's great, I'll be waiting."

Duan Ruirui and her family didn't come back for the Chinese New Year today. They said they'd definitely be able to transfer back in the second half of the year, and since the child is too young, they don't want the hassle of traveling back and forth.

Seeing Chu Xue and Xia Qiu, as well as Fu Yancheng and Qiu Shaofeng behind them, all carrying loads of things, Zhang Haitang said, "You guys, you should have just mentioned less, why did you bring so much?"

Chu Xue smiled and put the things in the corner: "Of course, it's because my uncle and aunt are so good to us, so we have to be filial to them."

Zhang Haitang loved to hear that and smiled from ear to ear: "Oh, I love to hear that, but Auntie really doesn't lack anything. I'm happy that you're here. You can't spend so much money in the future, you still have to raise your children."

Seeing how close her two daughters were to her sister-in-law, Xiao's mother felt a pang of jealousy.

Although he didn't say anything, his complexion was definitely not good.

But whether it was Chu Xue, Xia Qiu, or Zhang Haitang, no one paid attention to her expression.

Xiao Nianchun squeezed in at this moment: "Oh dear, you've forgotten about your aunt now that you have your aunt. I'm getting jealous."

Chu Xue glanced at her uncle who had followed her in: "Auntie, you're acting like a spoiled child in the wrong place. My uncle is right there."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room burst into laughter.

Zhang Haitang laughed until tears streamed down her face: "Alright, alright, stop teasing your aunt. Your uncle's face is all red."

"You two take a break and help yourselves with some water. I'll go check on the dishes in the kitchen." Xia Qiu and Chu Xue exclaimed in unison, "We'll go too!"

Xiao Nianchun also smiled and said, "I'll lend a hand too."

Meanwhile, the children in the family gathered around Xiao Changjiang, asking, "Uncle, what about the iron ring you promised me? Did you finish it?"

That sound is definitely the sound of stones.

Xiao Changjiang patted his forehead: "You have a really good memory, kid. Wait here, I'll go get it right away."

At this point, Junjun protested: "Grandpa, I want some too."

Xiao Changjiang must have anticipated this scene, as he said with a smile, "Yes, yes, yes, we have them all."

The younger children all jumped up and exclaimed, "Oh, that's great!"

Even the triplets cheered.

As Xiao Changjiang walked out, the younger children followed him.

Only the older Junjun and Shitou could step out of the threshold by themselves, but the triplets were in an awkward situation.

Fu Bao and Kang Bao each occupied one side of the threshold, unable to climb over no matter what they tried. In their anxious little voices, they cried out, "Grandpa, come and save us!"

His hilarious antics had everyone inside and outside the house doubled over with laughter.

Fu Yancheng and Chu Xue showed no intention of helping, since their two sons were calling him their great-grandfather anyway.

The two of them just stood there watching their two sons struggle with the threshold, and then, rather unkindly, they would occasionally offer a comment.

This angered Le Bao, who was on the same page as his older and younger brothers: "Mom and Dad, stop laughing and help your older and younger brothers!"
