Nian Nian’s kindergarten is on winter vacation.

However, as the year draws to a close, Yu Yanyang's company is also the busiest.

Therefore, the burden of taking care of Nian Nian fell on Gu Mingyue.

After all, Gu Mingyue's company in China has always been managed by Wei Shuo, so she is not familiar with the messy things at the end of the year.

"Mom, I want to go play with Brother Xiaoji."

Nian Nian was bored at home and acted coquettishly with Gu Mingyue.

"I'll call my brother."

Gu Mingyue did not refuse her and picked up the phone to call Gu Shenjin.

However, Gu Shenjin was not in the capital, so Gu Shenji basically lived in Chu Jinglan's house.

He gave her his aunt Liang Qingran's phone number and asked her to contact her herself.

Gu Mingyue had no choice but to call Liang Qingran and ask her about Gu Shenji's situation.

Liang Qingran said, "Xiaoji and Xiaochi are also on vacation. This morning, Xiaoji said he didn't know if Sister Nian Nian was on vacation. I wanted to call you, but he and Xiaochi went to the Science and Technology Museum to participate in a competition, so I planned to call you after the competition."

"Are they at the Science and Technology Museum? What time will it end? I'll go pick them up." Gu Mingyue asked.

Liang Qingran told her the end time.

Originally, the two children came back by themselves, but Gu Mingyue wanted to pick them up, and she did not refuse.

She is pregnant again!

After giving birth to Chu Zhongchi, she wanted to have another child, but she never got pregnant.

Gradually, she gave up the idea.

But unexpectedly, I got pregnant suddenly this year.

Except for Chu Jinglan who was worried that she was too old and would have a difficult pregnancy, the whole family was very happy.

Chu Zhongchi, in particular, really hopes to have a younger sister so that Gu Shenji won't have to brag to him about having a younger sister all the time.

But after all, she was a bit older, and this pregnancy was difficult, even though she was taken care of by the nanny and Mrs. Chu.

However, Liang Qingran still felt that he lacked the energy to keep up.

I felt groggy all day, completely different from when I was first pregnant.

Therefore, not much energy was paid to Chu Zhongchi.

Fortunately, Gu Shenji and Chu Zhongchi are both very sensible. They basically don't tire her out and will take care of her.

After Gu Mingyue knew the time when school was over, she changed Nian Nian's clothes and took her to pick up her two brothers.

Coincidentally, Lu Min also brought Chu Zhongbai to pick them up.

Gu Mingyue didn't know Lu Min, and Lu Min had never met Gu Mingyue.

It was Nian Nian who recognized Chu Zhongbai and greeted him loudly: "Brother Xiaobai."

"Sister Nian Nian?"

Chu Zhongbai's eyes lit up and he greeted her.

Lu Min and Gu Mingyue then looked at each other and introduced themselves.

Lu Min is Chu Jinchu's eldest cousin's wife, and Gu Mingyue is Chu Jinchu's sister-in-law.

The two of them are considered to be related relatives.

They soon started chatting animatedly, and it became known that they were all there to pick up Gu Shenji and Chu Zhongchi.

So, Lu Min handed Chu Zhongbai over to Gu Mingyue.

"If I had known you were coming to pick them up, I wouldn't have come. I have something else to do at work. I'll leave these three children in your care. I hope there's enough room in the car! Thank you, little sister, for taking them back."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I will take good care of them."

Gu Mingyue followed Chu Jinchu's lead and also called Lu Min "sister-in-law".

Chu Zhongchi and Gu Shenji came out of the Science and Technology Museum and saw Nian Nian being held in Gu Mingyue's arms.

"Near."

Gu Shenji ran over happily.

Chu Zhongchi was more steady than him. After coming over, he greeted Gu Mingyue first, and then greeted Chu Zhongbai and Nian Nian.

Chu Zhongbai asked about their competition, pondered for a moment, and analyzed: "You two will definitely win the prize."

Chu Zhongbai was a few years older than both of them and had participated in this kind of competition before.

He said he could win the award, and Chu Zhongchi and Gu Shenji both believed what he said was true.

The two were very happy.

Even though Chu Zhongchi had been steady since childhood, he couldn't help but smile.

"Are you guys going to celebrate? I'll book a restaurant for you."

Gu Mingyue asked them.

Chu Zhongchi said shyly, "The results haven't come out yet, and I'm not sure if I can win the award yet, so I won't celebrate yet."

"Brother, come to my house and play!"

Nian Nian pulled Gu Shenji’s sleeve and acted coquettishly.

Gu Shenji picked her up, looked at Chu Zhongbai and Chu Zhongchi and asked, "Are you going?"

The two of them were fine and nodded.

Gu Mingyue brought the four of them home. With the three of them around, she felt less worried.

Not long after, Chu Zhongyou also called and learned that they were at Nian Nian's house.

So I took a taxi to come and play with them.

Yu Yanyang's company still has more than ten days before the holiday, but Yu Yanyang plans to take a holiday for himself in advance and take Chu Jinchu and Nian Nian back to his hometown to visit his grandfather.

They have a lot going on this year.

I will go to my grandfather's place before the New Year to spend the New Year with him.

I will return to Jiangcheng immediately after the New Year to attend the Gu family’s family gathering.

Originally, Gu Shenji should have been sent back to Jiangcheng after his vacation.

But he didn't want to go back.

I don’t want to go home normally, and now that my aunt and Nian Nian are here, I’m even more reluctant to go back.

So he called his father Gu Mingyu and told him that he wanted to stay with his aunt and would return to Jiangcheng after the New Year.

Gu Mingyu didn't care about these mundane etiquettes, and he didn't think it was a big deal that his son didn't come back for the New Year.

After asking Gu Mingyue's opinion, he agreed.

Although Gu Shenji usually stays at the Chu family, he doesn't go back during the New Year, so it's inappropriate for him to stay at the Chu family.

Moreover, Chu Jinglan will not come back to celebrate the New Year this year.

So Liang Qingran wanted to take Chu Zhongchi to the army to reunite with him.

Gu Mingyue asked Yu Yanyang for his opinion.

Yu Yanyang said, "If your second brother agrees, come with us to celebrate the New Year at Grandpa's place. Grandpa's place is in the countryside, and they can set off firecrackers and fireworks as they please. Xiaoji will definitely like it."

"My second brother has no objection and lets me take full responsibility," said Gu Mingyue.

"Take him with you, then Nian Nian won't be around us all the time."

Yu Yanyang blinked cunningly.

How could Gu Mingyue not know what he meant?

Her face turned red and she quickly went to pack her things.

The distance was not too far, so they drove there.

However, the night before departure, Mr. Yu suddenly called Yu Yanyang.

He said a lot hesitantly.

Finally, Yu Yanyang couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, just say whatever you want to say! It's already late, let's not waste time."

It doesn't matter if you're alone, I have a wife waiting for me to sleep.

"Um... Yu Zhaodong is alone this year, why don't you bring him here tomorrow?"

Mr. Yu finally stated his purpose.

Yu Yanyang was stunned.

It’s been more than ten years, let alone celebrating the New Year together.

Even after the New Year, when my aunt and uncle went to visit my grandfather, my grandfather would not allow Yu Zhaodong to go.

"Are you unhappy? If you're unhappy, forget it."

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Mr. Yu thought he was unwilling, and spoke anxiously again.

Yu Yanyang took a deep breath, came back to his senses and said, "I'm not unwilling, I just don't know if he is willing."

He certainly couldn't be happy, but he also knew that the old man hadn't seen his own son for more than ten years because of him. He couldn't be too serious and make the old man sad.

"I asked your aunt to ask him, and he agreed. Since you agree, go pick him up tomorrow and bring him here with you. Don't feel any pressure. Let's celebrate the New Year as usual, just pretend he doesn't exist."
