When Shen Qingyue was about to help in the kitchen, her eldest brother Shen Yan took out some pastries and exquisite gifts brought back from the south.

His smile was warm and his eyes were full of love for his sister.

"Qingyue, I brought this back from the south. See if you like it."

Shen Yan handed her a box of exquisite pastries and some selected small gifts.

Shen Qingyue took the gift with a happy smile on her face.

She opened the box carefully and saw all kinds of pastries inside, with attractive colors and fragrant aroma.

"Brother, these look delicious, thank you!"

Shen Qingyue said happily, her voice full of joy.

Shen Yan looked at his sister's happy look, with a satisfied smile in his eyes.

"As long as you like it, it's fine. I'm worried that you won't like it."

Shen Qingyue put down the gift gently, her eyes shining, and then asked her eldest brother with concern.

"Brother, when you came back, did you go see your daughter?"

Shen Yan's face showed a hint of tenderness unique to his father, and he nodded with unconcealable pride and joy on his face.

"Of course I went to see her. She's growing up so fast and she looks more and more like her mother."

Shen Qingyue listened to her elder brother's words with a warm smile on her face.

She knew that for Shen Yan, family had always been the thing he cherished most.

As soon as Shen Yan finished speaking, his eyes turned to Lin Shuang beside him, his eyes full of gratitude.

He walked over and hugged Lin Shuang gently, his voice full of love.

"Lin Shuang, thank you for bringing me such a lovely daughter. You are really great."

Lin Shuang's face showed a shy blush, and she responded softly: "I am also very happy." Although her voice was soft, it was full of satisfaction.

During dinner, the Shen family's dining table was filled with all kinds of delicacies, and the aroma was overflowing and arousing appetite.

Families sit together, and the atmosphere is warm and joyful.

Shen Qingyue and Jiang Mingyuan sat on one side, while Dongdong sat between them, picking up delicious dishes with her little hands from time to time.

Shen Qingyue's mother put vegetables into everyone's bowls from time to time, her eyes full of love. "Eat more, it's all your favorite dishes." She said softly.

The topic quickly turned to the upcoming Spring Festival. "Is everyone at home during the Chinese New Year this year?" Shen Qingyue asked curiously.

Shen Yan nodded and said, "Of course, we must have a good reunion year this year." His words were full of expectations for family reunion.

Lin Shuang added gently: "That's great, we can make dumplings together and watch the Spring Festival Gala."

When Dongdong heard the suggestion of making dumplings, his eyes lit up: "I want to make dumplings too!"

The atmosphere at the table was pleasant and warm, and everyone was looking forward to the upcoming Spring Festival.

At the dinner table, Shen Heyue suggested in a steady voice: "Qingyue, Mingyuan, you can just go home and celebrate the Spring Festival this year. A few more pairs of bowls and chopsticks at home will be enough."

When Dongdong heard this proposal, his eyes shone with anticipation. He said in his slightly arrogant voice: "I like grandma's house the most. There are a lot of delicious food."

Shen Qingyue said softly: "By the way, brother, where did you go when you were in the south? Did anything interesting happen?"

Shen Yan replied with a smile: "We went to many places, and the scenery in the south is really beautiful. I also went to an ancient town, where the night market was very lively and there were a lot of delicious food."

At this time, Shen Qingyue's mother interjected: "Okay, okay, let's eat first and don't let the food get cold."

Zhou Guifang warmly put a big chicken drumstick for Dongdong and said with a smile: "Dongdong, this is your favorite, try it quickly."

Dongdong looked at the chicken legs in front of him, his eyes lit up, and he responded in a childish voice: "Thank you, grandma!" Shen Qingyue watched Dongdong eating with gusto, with a satisfied smile on his face.

She turned to Jiang Mingyuan and said softly: "Mingyuan, try this. My mother makes braised pork. It tastes very good."

Jiang Mingyuan nodded slightly, picked up a piece of braised pork and tasted it, with an appreciative smile on his face: "It's indeed delicious, thank you."

Topics at the dinner table continued one after another. Everyone was talking about interesting things from the past and planning activities for the Spring Festival.

The laughter and laughter of the Shen family filled the whole room, creating a warm and harmonious family atmosphere.

Shen Heyue mentioned some Spring Festival customs in previous years and said with a smile: "This year we will continue as usual, including cleaning, posting Spring Festival couplets, and fireworks."

Shen Qingyue looked at Jiang Mingyuan and responded with a smile: "Dad, we will be back this year."

Jiang Mingyuan nodded in agreement, with a smile of approval on his face.

Wherever Qingyue and Dongdong celebrate the New Year, of course he will celebrate the New Year there too.

Shen Heyue showed a satisfied smile on his face: "That's great, everyone can be reunited together."

Shen Qingyue listened and nodded with a smile.

After dinner, Shen Qingyue took the initiative to help clean up the dishes. She, Zhou Guifang and Lin Shuang were busy washing the dishes together.

The atmosphere in the kitchen is equally welcoming and full of family warmth.

While they were busy washing dishes in the kitchen, Zhou Guifang and Lin Shuang started a lighthearted banter.

Zhou Guifang smiled and said to Shen Qingyue: "Qingyue, when will you and Mingyuan give our Dongdong a little sister?"

When Shen Qingyue heard Zhou Guifang's teasing, her face blushed involuntarily. She lowered her head shyly, not knowing how to respond.

At this moment, Jiang Mingyuan happened to walk into the kitchen.

Jiang Mingyuan's arrival broke the slightly awkward atmosphere.

He saw Shen Qingyue's cheeks turning red and couldn't help but smile, but he didn't ask what happened.

Seeing this, Lin Shuang smiled softly and continued Zhou Guifang's words, and said softly to Shen Qingyue: "Qingyue, you have to work harder to let Dongdong have a little sister to accompany him."

When Jiang Mingyuan heard Lin Shuang's words, he smiled slightly and coughed hoarsely.

He responded to Lin Shuang softly: "I will work hard, sister-in-law."

When Zhou Guifang heard Jiang Mingyuan's answer, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.

The evening arrangements became more intimate. She said to Shen Qingyue and Jiang Mingyuan: "You two will sleep in the guest room tonight. Dongdong can sleep with us."

When Shen Qingyue heard this arrangement, her cheeks blushed unconsciously, and she felt a little shy.

Dongdong heard that she could sleep with her grandma, and her face showed excitement.

He said happily: "I want to sleep with grandma!"

When Jiang Mingyuan and Shen Qingyue entered the guest room, the atmosphere in the room became slightly quiet and awkward.

This family, usually full of liveliness and laughter, suddenly seemed quiet, making both of them feel an unusual atmosphere.

In order to relieve the embarrassment, the two got busy separately.

Shen Qingyue began to make the bed, while Jiang Mingyuan walked around the room, trying to find something to do.

He opened the window and let the fresh night breeze blow gently into the room, bringing a bit of coolness.

After Shen Qingyue made the bed, she turned around and looked at Jiang Mingyuan. She said softly: "The bed has been made. You can rest first."
