Courtyard houses: Those who are capable are rewarded, and many children bring many blessings.

Qin Huairu and Qin Ningru both noticed the disappointment in his eyes. At this point, both pregnant women were quite heavily pregnant.

The two sisters' due dates should be only a month apart. At this point, the babies are already settled, and if it weren't for Niu Dazhuang's exceptional physical abilities, a little exercise shouldn't be a problem.

But Niu Dazhuang can't do it!

"Look at you, so impatient. You haven't been home for over two months, and the first thing you do when you come back is ask about Ningru. You don't even care about us."

"I was too hasty. You all look radiant; there shouldn't be any problems!"

"Hmph, no problem, stay home for a few days?"

"I'll leave after the fifteenth, and I won't be back until winter. Xue Ru, when is your due date? I'll come back early."

"I'm not sure either, but it should be around the twelfth lunar month."

"Oh, I should have been back much earlier by then. So, Third Sister, it'll be November?"

"That's right, my sister and I are only a month apart."

"Is everything prepared for the Lantern Festival? If you haven't bought anything yet, I'll go out and buy it now. I'll call the old man and the others over tomorrow at noon."

"Oh, I didn't know when you were coming back, so I didn't prepare that much. I bought mooncakes, and I also bought a few packs for the old man and the others, and sent them all over."

"Okay, I'll go out for a walk and buy some fruit."

I rushed to the farmers' market and bought fruit whenever I saw it, like grapes and apples, buying them by the basketful.

I made more than a dozen trips back and forth and bought over a hundred kilograms of various vegetables.

Around 11 a.m., Niu Dazhuang rushed to Xu Huizhen's house and closed the door as soon as he entered.

Ignoring Lin Yongmei and Xiao Jingli who were playing inside, he picked up Xu Huizhen and went into the inner room.

Before entering the east room, Xu Huizhen made sure to tell Lin Yongmei, "Quickly call Chen Xueru over; I can't handle this alone."

Forget the prelude, it's all over. It's almost like watching a sow compete with Diao Chan, why bother with the prelude? Just get straight to the point.

Finally, Lin Yongmei came on stage.

Afterwards, he had a good time, feeling like a god. He released most of his pent-up desire. Xu Huizhen and Chen Xueru, on the other hand, were in a worse state, both of them turning into dough balls...

Just imagining this scene is incredibly alluring...

"Dazhuang, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's have a reunion dinner together!" Xu Huizhen asked tentatively.

"Noon won't work, I have plans at home for lunch. How about evening?"

"Great! We can enjoy the moon after dinner tonight," Chen Xueru quickly agreed.

"Right under your grape trellis, that's a good idea."

"You shook the grape trellis so badly last time, why are you going to ruin my grape trellis again?"

"Is the swing ready yet?"

"You're the boss, how dare I disobey your orders? If you hadn't come back soon, I would have taken the swing down."

"Hehe, you guys are really good at this! Xue Ru, how come you've never heard of it?"

"It was just once. You'll be participating every time after that."

I finished a cigarette.

"You guys rest, I have something to do, I'll be leaving now."

It's not easy for them to come back. Ye Chunlan can skip visiting, but Ye Chunmei, who is pregnant, absolutely must be visited.

I also bought two packs of mooncakes; it's just a small token of my appreciation.

"When did you get back? It's a waste of your money now, Chunmei is vomiting everything she eats."

Ye Chunlan didn't want to upset her, so she behaved herself when she saw Niu Dazhuang and sat down next to him.

Niu Dazhuang hugged Ye Chunmei tightly: "Thank you for your hard work!"

"With you saying that, I guess my time with you wasn't wasted! Look how tanned you've gotten."

"Of course I'm tanned, it's even more tiring than working back home..." Niu Dazhuang told the two of them about what had happened on the construction site over the past two months.

As the sun began to set...

"Will you stay for dinner tonight?" Ye Chunlan asked.

"I'll leave after I have dinner."

"Dazhuang, I want to lie down for a while. Can you carry me inside?" Niu Dazhuang carried Ye Chunmei back to the kang (a heated brick bed), laid her down, and covered her with a quilt.

Niu Dazhuang, who rarely goes into the kitchen these days, carried Ye Chunmei back into the house and then tiptoed into the kitchen as well.

Although Niu Dazhuang had already vented most of his frustrations by noon, women are all different, and having different women sing "Conquer" is incredibly satisfying...

Ye Chunlan stood in front of the cutting board, chopping vegetables, with her back to Niu Dazhuang. From behind, the drawstring of her apron was tied around her waist.

Ye Chunlan perfectly displayed her slender waist and full hip curves before Niu Dazhuang's eyes. As she chopped vegetables, her slender waist swayed slightly, causing her full, pert buttocks to tremble as well...

Tsk tsk... Needless to say, Niu Dazhuang, a man who has been holding back for two months, would also be unable to resist even if he had just tormented this young woman in front of him last night.

Niu Dazhuang took two quick steps and hugged Ye Chunlan from behind.

As if Ye Chunlan knew he was coming, just as Niu Dazhuang brought his head close, Ye Chunlan turned around and her lips met Niu Dazhuang's.

This time, Niu Dazhuang wasn't in a rush; instead, he slowly savored every inch of her skin...

The large iron ladle and wok in the kitchen create a vibrant symphony of human life...

It's already dark outside; without lighting candles, we'd be groping in the dark. Dinner isn't ready yet.

He carried Ye Chunlan back to the east room, then rode his bicycle to a nearby restaurant to buy dinner for the day.

The kang table was brought out again.

"How's the purchase of your yard going?" Niu Dazhuang asked.

"The paperwork was completed last month, and I'm the registered owner!" Ye Chunmei said proudly.

"I've also lost some gold, and I bought some paintings by those people you mentioned. Anyway, I've spent almost all the money I had," Ye Chunmei added.

"Is it a two-courtyard house? Is it bigger or smaller than this?"

"It's similar to this place. I'm also worried about buying it. It feels like a waste to just leave it like this, but you can't get much money renting it out."

"Rent it to me!"

"If you want to use it, just take it. Saying that shows you don't consider us one of your own!" Ye Chunlan was still unhappy.

"Chunlan, listen to me. If I were one of you two women, I definitely wouldn't have suggested renting it out. There are other people at home, you know. I could take the bicycle and watch, but I'd definitely have to pay rent. I'm not renting it out to live in myself."

"It's for my three brothers to live in. One of my brothers works at a recycling company under the neighborhood committee. With this yard, I asked him to start collecting old things for me."

The two sisters exchanged a glance: "Alright, you can decide on the rent. I'll give you the key when you leave. It's at No. 11 Daxing Hutong behind here."

"By the way, there's a vegetable cellar and an ice cellar in the backyard, but we didn't dare go down to check them. Why don't you ask your three brothers to go down and take a look? Fix what needs fixing, and deduct the cost from the rent," Ye Chunlan added.

"Okay, I'll have them take another look at the buildings upstairs, and repair any that need maintenance."

"Hehe...that's great! If it weren't for the fact that there has to be a man in the house, my sister and I would have gone to see him a few times, but we still don't know where to start."
