Chapter 1583: The Duoet of Nephew and Uncle

~4 min read 692 words

Liu Chuxue shook her head and said, "Better not. If you borrow a car to take us, people will surely gossip. We'd do better to keep a low profile."

Fu Yan Cheng turned the steering wheel while saying, "My frequency of borrowing cars is far lower than others', not to mention I have to refuel it myself. They won't have anything to say about us."

It was already the end of May in 1977; they could not let things go wrong in these final days, so caution was naturally required.

Fortunately, they had not detoured to pick anyone up. When they arrived, Xia Qiu's family of three was already at the Xiao household.

Hearing the commotion, Qiu Shaofeng, Xia Qiu, and Du Juan all came out to greet them.

Neighbors nearby who heard the noise also gathered over: "Chuxue, did you bring the children back for a short stay?"

Liu Chuxue greeted them: "Yes, taking advantage of my husband's day off tomorrow, we came back to see my parents."

"Oh my, the triplets are truly beautiful, so fair and clean."

Walking from outside the alley back to the Xiao house took about twenty minutes; they were stopped at almost every doorstep.

When they entered the courtyard, Chunxiao was helping Xiao Mu carry dishes to the table in the yard. This time she was quite well-behaved: "Second Sister, Second Brother-in-law, Auntie Wei."

Xiao Mu also came out of the kitchen: "Once the children are settled, it's just time to eat."

Little Shi Tou, in Xiao Fu's arms, actually called out to Liu Chuxue: "Sister."

This made Xia Qiu, who often visited, feel jealous. She stepped forward and slapped her younger brother's bottom: "You bad little brother. I come to see you every few days and taught you so many times to say 'Sister', yet you don't cooperate at all. Why call Second Sister first?"

Shi Tou thought Xia Qiu was playing with him and laughed wildly in Xiao Fu's arms.

Perhaps seeing so many people at home, he was very happy and clapped his hands from time to time.

Chunxiao also came over and pinched Shi Tou's face directly.

Just as Xiao Mu came out of the kitchen, she saw this and immediately slapped Chunxiao on the back: "What are you doing with your meddling hands? Look, you've pinched Shi Tou's little face red."

To be honest, Chunxiao deserved that slap. There were still finger marks on Shi Tou's little face; Chunxiao must have used quite a bit of force. She was probably upset that Shi Tou called Liu Chuxue 'Sister' first.

However, this little fellow was quite tough. Even so, he didn't cry; he just stopped laughing and pouted occasionally.

Liu Chuxue couldn't help but tease him: "Shi Tou, go ahead and cry. Why are you acting now?"

Seeing his son pout again after hearing Second Sister's words, Xiao Fu also laughed: "We are little men; we don't listen to Second Sister. Only girls cry and whine."

Liu Chuxue didn't expect that after hearing Xiao Fu's words, the little fellow really stopped pouting: "Oh, you understood that. Come, let Second Sister hold you."

Whether it was because Xiao Mu ate the special food from Liu Chuxue's space during her pregnancy or not, little Shi Tou liked being held by Liu Chuxue the most.

Seeing his son like this, Xiao Fu patted his bottom: "No wonder your eldest sister and your third sister are jealous. You see Second Sister the least, yet you cling to her the most."

The more Xiao Fu said this, the tighter little Shi Tou hugged Liu Chuxue's neck, pressing his face against hers.

However, they hadn't held him for long before the triplets all started crying.

Liu Chuxue was preparing to hand Shi Tou back to Xiao Fu, but the little fellow simply held onto her neck and wouldn't let go.

Seeing that their mother hadn't come over to hold them yet, the triplets cried even harder.

Junjun, held in Qiu Shaofeng's arms, saw them crying and started crying too.

For a moment, the entire courtyard was filled with crying and fussing, a demonic sound piercing the ears.
