After setting the time for the banquet, Zheng Weiguo will start preparing gifts for his grandson.
Lu Yao: "Dad, a child doesn't understand anything. Don't prepare too many things for him. When he grows up, you can prepare what he needs."
Zheng Weiguo: "I know what's going on, so don't worry about it."
Lu Yao didn't say anything anymore. It was useless. Her father would definitely prepare a lot.
Zheng Weiguo stayed with his grandson for a while and then went back.
Grandma Yue gave some pieces of silk and satin and asked Gu Fulan to make clothes for the child. Gu Fulan made three sets of inner clothes and two sets of cotton-padded clothes for the child, and dried them outside before bringing them over.
Duan Mingjie put on his son's clothes, and Lu Yao curled her lips when she saw how careful and cherished he was.
No matter how much he dislikes him, Duan Mingjie still loves his son in his heart.
After putting on new warm clothes, the little guy fell asleep comfortably.
Gu Fulan said on the side, "This boy is so good. Unlike his father, who used to make trouble to me when I was little."
Duan Mingjie: "..."
Lu Yao pursed her lips and smiled. Ever since she had her grandson, her mother-in-law disliked Duan Mingjie even more.
Gu Fulan: "Yaoyao, let the third child accompany you, and I will make some more clothes for Haiyang. The child poops a lot and urinates a lot, so two sets of cotton-padded clothes are not enough."
On cloudy days, her grandson would have nothing to wear if his cotton-padded clothes could not be dried.
"Mom, don't do it. My sister-in-law probably did a lot, and my aunt must have done a lot too. Children don't need too many clothes. If you don't wear them all, it will be a waste. My eldest brother's children are better than our children. Two months earlier, he is also a boy. In the afternoon, Duan Mingjie can go over and ask for some clothes for children to wear and the rest will be fine."
Chen Yuncai told her before when she called her that she would make clothes for her children, and Yu Ping would definitely do the same. There were so many clothes that she could never wear them all.
Gu Fulan: "Okay, I'll wash the baby's diaper. Just talk whenever you're hungry and I'll do it for you."
"okay."
Gu Fulan turned around and took only two steps, then turned around and said, "Your second brother went back to his parents' house with his wife today, and will deliver food tomorrow. After finishing everything in two days, he will come by train tomorrow night."
They usually go back to their parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and then they have to deliver food, so it takes two trips to see all the relatives.
"Mom, please don't worry, second brother, just be here before the sixth day of the lunar month."
Don't let the second sister-in-law's family have any objections.
"No, we are just going through the motions with your second sister-in-law's family. They treat your second sister-in-law badly. If I hadn't told you from behind, your second sister-in-law wouldn't even be willing to go back."
According to Xia Guihua's idea, she wanted to break off the relationship with her natal family, but was later stopped by Gu Fulan.
This relative is just walking around without paying any attention to it. It is just to maintain the relationship.
"Is this Comrade Lu Yao's home?"
Suddenly a stranger's voice sounded outside the door.
Lu Yao looked at Duan Mingjie, "Go down and see who it is."
Duan Mingjie turned around and went downstairs.
The person who came was a man who looked to be in his fifties. His appearance looked similar to that of his father-in-law. He didn't look like a relative. Both hands were carrying gifts and a set of cotton-padded clothes.
Duan Mingjie walked over and asked politely, "Who are you?"
"You must be Comrade Lu Yao's lover. I am the section chief of the Cultural Bureau. Come and see Comrade Lu Yao."
As soon as these words came out, Duan Mingjie instantly understood this person's purpose.
With a polite smile on his lips, he said, "Hello, Comrade Section Chief."
"Okay, okay," the section chief looked inside the room, "I heard that Comrade Lu Yao gave birth to a little son, and I came here to congratulate him. I don't know if he has the honor to see what the little son looks like."
Duan Mingjie's eyes twitched, Wen Zouzou's tone was too consistent with this person's identity.
The other party came because of Zheng Weiguo's face. It would not be good if he refused directly, but if he was allowed in, more people would want to see the child in the future.
"My wife is upstairs, so it's not convenient to meet guests," Duan Mingjie said, "In this way, we can meet again when my wife is out of confinement."
The section chief had a decent smile on his face, "That's such a pity. It doesn't matter. It's important for Comrade Lu Yao to be in confinement. Please give me this gift. This is a cotton coat made by my wife herself. It will be very comfortable for the child to wear."
Duan Mingjie: "Your hands are so skillful, my wife. However, my mother and my father have prepared a lot of clothes for the children. It is too much to wear. It would be a waste to keep them at home. Please take them back and give them to those in need."
The section chief looked at Duan Mingjie and said, "It's not enough."
He smiled and said, "Children don't have too many clothes. Even if they are worn once, my wife will be happy. When they are no longer needed, you can give them to those who need them. I have something to do, so I will leave first."
After saying that, the section chief put the things on the ground, turned around and ran away.
Before he could even take two steps, he was grabbed by Duan Mingjie.
Section Chief: "..."
Finally, the section chief came back the same way he came.
Thinking of the section chief's expression before leaving, Duan Mingjie just smiled.
After going upstairs, Duan Mingjie told Lu Yao. Although Lu Yao was amused, she thought about it seriously, "No matter who it is, as long as we have no contact with us, we don't want their gifts. If it doesn't work, just close the door and thank the guests."
If she was just the daughter of an ordinary family, these people wouldn't rush to give her gifts.
After accepting their gifts, Zheng Weiguo will accept their favors from now on.
Duan Mingjie: "I definitely can't accept the gift."
As soon as he finished speaking, another unfamiliar male voice came from outside.
"Is this Comrade Lu Yao's home?"
Lu Yao's mouth twitched.
Did these people discuss it? They even said the same thing.
Duan Mingjie stood up and said, "I'll go down and take a look."
Lu Yao: "Talking to others, even if you refuse, it's better to have a better attitude."
Lest others say their family is arrogant.
"I know."
After a while, Duan Mingjie came up again.
"I locked the door."
Lu Yao: "...Alright."
This is the only way to go.
After a while, Gu Fulan came up with noodles.
After eating, Lu Yao took a rest. In a daze, she heard Duan Mingming come up and say that there were many gifts outside the gate.
Duan Mingjie's face darkened, "Look at your sister-in-law, I'll go out."
Duan Mingming: "Go ahead."
Lu Yao woke up and found that Duan Mingjie was not there, and frowned after knowing the situation.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry about it. Third brother will take care of it."
Lu Yao hummed and turned sideways to shake the little guy.
Duan Mingming also leaned over to take a look, "Sister-in-law, should we give little Haiyang a nickname?"
Lu Yao hummed and looked at Duan Mingming, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Duan Mingming: "Haiyang didn't come out until the first day of the new year. Can we call it the first day of the new year?"
Lu Yao hummed, "First grade of junior high school, first grade of junior high school."
Duan Mingming nodded, "Sister-in-law, what do you think?"
"It sounds nice!" Lu Yao hooked her son's little hand, "Haiyang, aunt gave you a nice name, Junior One, Little Junior One."
