After lunch, Yu Yanyang, Gu Mingyue, and the two children went to the mountains to catch pheasants.

However, pheasants in the mountains are not easy to catch.

Yu Yanyang just wanted to amuse the two children, so he pretended to look around and finally caught a few fish in the stream and brought them home.

However, even so, the two children were extremely happy.

Gu Shenji called home and proudly showed off to his brothers and sisters.

He also called Chu Zhongchi to show off to him about catching fish in the water.

However, neither his younger brothers and sisters nor Chu Zhongchi cared about these things.

After all, the two little ones among the triplets studied seriously all day long, and they were not keen on things like catching pheasants in the mountains or fishing in the river.

Chu Zhongchi and Liang Qingran went to the army to reunite with Chu Jinglan.

The army was surrounded by mountains, water, and a training ground. His daily life was much more interesting than Gu Shenji's.

"They just envy me, but they don't say it. Nian Nian, you are still the best."

Gu Shenji didn't get satisfaction from them, so he hugged Nian Nian and played with her again.

The two played until late at night, until Yu Yanyang promised them that he would go to town to buy fireworks and firecrackers for them to set off tomorrow, and then the two went to bed obediently.

This time, Nian Nian didn't make a fuss about sleeping with her parents, but wanted to sleep with her brother Xiaoji.

Yu Yanyang was very happy and agreed with both hands and feet.

Move Nian Nian's crib to Gu Shenji's room so that they can sleep in the same room.

"Fell asleep?"

Gu Mingyue was sitting on the bed reading a book. When she saw him come in, she put down the book and asked.

Yu Yanyang nodded: "He fell asleep. Xiaoji is very sensible. He assured me that he would get up at night to see if Nian Nian kicked off the quilt."

"He is obviously still a child." Gu Mingyue said with a smile.

"He's the boss after all, so he's good at taking care of people."

Yu Yanyang commented.

Gu Mingyue thought of what happened during the day again and looked at him with complicated eyes.

Yu Yanyang met her eyes and immediately understood what she was thinking.

Although the two were separated for three years, it didn't take long for them to reunite.

But he could tell at a glance what she was thinking.

Perhaps this is what it means to be connected with each other!

"You don't want to have children?"

Yu Yanyang got on the bed, hugged her and asked.

Gu Mingyue was silent for a moment and replied, "No, I don't want to. Having Nian Nian is enough for me. Besides, it's not entirely because of Nian Nian. The most important thing is that I don't want to have children. I don't know how I can be a mother."

"You're doing very well right now. The fact that Nian Nian likes you so much speaks volumes."

Gu Mingyue didn't say anything.

The psychological trauma left on her by her adoptive mother was so great that she thought she had forgotten those things long ago.

But when it comes to having a baby, she can't help but think of those things.

Nian Nian already existed, and she had to accept it.

But she couldn't think about what would happen if she gave birth to a child.

"We are still young. We have Nian Nian now, so let's take good care of her first. We can think about these things later."

Seeing that she was silent, with deep sadness hidden in her eyes, Yu Yanyang patted her back to comfort her with heartache.

“What if I can’t figure it out in the future?”

Gu Mingyue raised her eyes and looked at Yu Yanyang and asked.

Yu Yanyang said, "Then forget it. Your thoughts are definitely more important."

"Then don't you feel regretful?"

Gu Mingyue asked him.

Yu Yanyang kissed her and said, "I will regret it, but not because I don't have a child. I already have a child, and Nian Nian is my daughter. However, I will regret not having a child with you."

"sorry."

Gu Mingyue apologized.

Yu Yanyang smiled and said, "This is originally a matter between the two of us. It's normal to have different choices. It would be awkward to apologize. Well, it's getting late. Go to bed early. I'll take you to the market in town tomorrow."

"Going to the market?"

Gu Mingyue had never heard of this word and had no idea what it meant.

Yu Yanyang said: "It's very interesting, you will know when you go there."

He lay down with his arms around Gu Mingyue, patting her back to coax her to sleep.

Gu Mingyue leaned in his arms and closed her eyes.

Many of the furniture in the house were made by Mr. Yu himself.

I don't know where the wood came from, but it has a very pleasant smell.

At first, Gu Mingyue couldn't sleep. The conversation with Yu Yanyang made her feel irritated.

She knew that what she was doing was wrong, but she couldn't convince herself now.

Later, under Yu Yanyang's rhythmic patting, she actually fell asleep.

Yu Yanyang waited until she fell asleep before kissing her forehead again and closing his eyes to sleep.

He is a person who doesn't have so many complicated thoughts.

The reason why he wanted to have a child with Gu Mingyue was because he was afraid that Gu Mingyue would leave him one day.

Having a child is just to add another layer of connection between two people.

If this is involved, it will provide an extra layer of protection.

If Gu Mingyue were to become unhappy with him because of this little bit of security, there would be no need for that.

The next morning, the two children woke up early.

"Nian Nian, don't run."

Gu Shenji picked up Nian Nian from the crib, and Nian Nian ran to her parents' room.

Gu Shenji chased after him, shouting.

Finally, he stopped her at the door.

"I want to go play with my parents."

Nian Nian raised her head and said to her brother in a wronged tone.

Gu Shenji said, "We have to knock on the door before we can enter."

Nian Nian is young and naive, but he is not young anymore.

Moreover, when I was a child, I was beaten countless times for breaking into my parents' room without knocking, and I had learned my lesson a long time ago.

"Ok."

Nian Nian knocked on the door obediently.

However, when she knocked, she was stopped by Gu Shenji.

"Your hands will hurt from knocking. Let me knock."

He raised his hand and knocked a few times, "dong dong dong."

Yu Yanyang squinted his eyes and came to open the door.

"You two little ones, why are you up so early?"

"Dad, buy some firecrackers and fireworks."

Nian Nian raised her head to remind him.

Yu Yanyang sighed.

I originally thought that I could have a good sleep during the holidays, but in fact, with children at home, the term "good sleep" is basically out of the question.

I just get up earlier when I’m on vacation.

Because the little beasts at home get up much earlier than when they were in school.

It just so happened that Mr. Yu went out for exercise early in the morning and came back after a round of exercise.

Seeing that the four of them were all up, he smiled and said, "You all got up early today, so it's a good time for us to have breakfast together."

"I didn't want to get up so early either, but it was Nian Nian who woke me up."

Yu Yanyang complained.

Old Master Yu smiled and praised Nian Nian: "Our Nian Nian is really amazing. She's the right thing to do. Young people should go to bed and get up early. A day's plan begins in the morning, and morning is the best time to work hard."

"Dad, I'm awesome. Great-grandfather praised me for being awesome."

Nian Nian jumped around happily.

Yu Yanyang felt helpless towards the old man and the child.

After breakfast, I drove them to the market in town.

I didn’t expect that people in rural areas get up so early?

Coming here so early, there are already crowds of people.

There is no parking lot here, so I just found a place to park.

Gu Mingyue asked: "Won't we be checked by the traffic police?"

Yu Yanyang said, "Where are the traffic police? Just don't block the road."

The bustling crowds, the shouts and hawking, and all kinds of bright red items on display, the atmosphere is full of the New Year atmosphere!
