Xiao Li quickly sped up her eating pace, just to make sure that she finished her soup before the baby woke up. Xiao Li’s instincts weren’t bad. As soon as she put down her bowl, the little glutinous rice ball woke up. The nanny checked the little glutinous rice ball’s diaper and changed it before handing the baby to Xiao Li to nurse. Just as the little one started eating, the little dumpling also woke up and immediately wanted to nurse. The nanny changed his diaper and tried to soothe him, but he wouldn’t stop crying. Seeing this, Qin Xiao came over and had the nanny hand the baby to him. Holding the child, Qin Xiao said softly to the little dumpling, who couldn’t understand a thing, "Little Dumpling, your sister is eating now, you have to wait, you can’t have no sense of being a big brother at all!" The little dumpling’s cries didn’t stop with a change of person or from Qin Xiao’s words; he continued wailing. Xiao Li felt anxious from his cries and thought he was the loudest of the four children. Mianmian and Xiao Li and the little glutinous rice ball, who was breastfeeding, weren’t as loud as him! No matter how much he cried, he could only wait until the little glutinous rice ball was done feeding for his turn. After feeding the little glutinous rice ball, Xiao Li took the little dumpling and nursed him on the other side. The moment the little dumpling started nursing, the room finally fell silent. Perhaps because he was so hungry, as soon as he started feeding, the little dumpling sucked ferociously, causing Xiao Li to let out a soft cry of pain. Qin Xiao, who was burping the little glutinous rice ball, heard Xiao Li’s soft cry and gave the nursing little dumpling a look. This little guy really has no sense of responsibility, bullying his sister and his mother! (Little Dumpling: Daddy! I’m just a baby; this thing called responsibility, I really don’t know what it is!) After feeding both babies, Xiao Li got out of bed and walked around for a bit in the room, as staying in bed all day wasn’t comfortable either. Three days later, Xiao Li was discharged and moved into a postpartum care center, with Qin Xiao accompanying her. Meanwhile, Mianmian and Xiao Li stayed with Qin’s mother. Initially, Xiao Li could have been brought to the care center too, but Mianmian was still attending classes and couldn’t come, so for fairness, both children stayed with Qin’s mother for the time being. Occasionally, they would come with Qin’s mother to the care center to visit mom and the brothers and sisters. Soon a month passed, and the two babies reached their full-month celebrations. This time, Qin’s father and Qin’s mother insisted on holding a grand banquet. Not only for these two children’s full month, but when He Jie gives birth and their baby reaches one month, they should also hold a grand celebration! According to Qin’s father, previous children didn’t have grand banquets for various reasons, but now they can, so they should celebrate lavishly! In the banquet hall of Heshun Villa, representatives from all the families friendly with the Qin Family were in attendance at the banquet. Everyone dressed in their finest, with the men clinking glasses and the women sharing charming smiles. On the second floor of the banquet hall, Xiao Li was watching the two babies with her friends. Dai Zihan watched the two identical-looking babies and found them more and more lovable. She also wished she could have twins! Xiao Wenjing, who was newly pregnant, looked at the two babies, already imagining what her own child would look like. Would they be this cute? Among the friends, Feng Qing was the most calculating. She looked at the two babies and began to think about how to whisk the little glutinous rice ball away to be her son Xiao Michi’s bride. Xiao Michi is Feng Qing’s son’s nickname. At just a year old, Xiao Michi fingered his own and watched his little brothers and sisters, unaware that his mom was already planning his marriage. Xiao Michi watched the little babies, and suddenly stretched out his hand to poke the little glutinous rice ball’s cheek, using the same finger he was just sucking on. Feng Qing, seeing her son’s action, looked at him with bright eyes. Well done, son! Good eye and fast move! Standing to the side, Xiao Li didn’t say anything when she saw Xiao Michi poking the little glutinous rice ball since he wasn’t doing it hard. She merely reached for a tissue to wipe the baby’s drool. But before she could grab the tissue, Xiao Li had already removed Xiao Michi’s hand and wiped his sister’s drool with a handkerchief. Xiao Li was cleanliness-obsessed and always had a small handkerchief on him. Xiao Li wasn’t surprised to see Xiao Li wiping the little glutinous rice ball’s face. Her eldest son was mature beyond his years, which she knew well. Xiao Li wasn’t surprised, but Dai Zihan and the others were. Even though they often heard Xiao Li complaining about Xiao Li being too mature and not fun to play with, they didn’t expect the little boy, barely over three years old, to already be taking care of his sister. Dai Zihan looked at Xiao Li with bright eyes, "Xiao Li, your son is amazing! If I have a daughter in the future, I’ll definitely have her steal Xiao Li away." Feng Qing immediately chimed in, "I also want to whisk away the little glutinous rice ball to be my son Xiao Michi’s bride!" Xiao Li was dumbfounded upon hearing this! Her children were still so young, and these two unscrupulous friends were already thinking about them! Just as Qin Xiao arrived, Xiao Li quickly turned around to report the danger, "Uncle, Dai Zihan wants to take Xiao Li as a son-in-law, and Feng Qing wants to whisk the little glutinous rice ball away as a daughter-in-law!" Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow at that—losing a son was no big deal. They could go ahead and try! But losing a daughter, hmph, dream on! He could very well turn the tables and cultivate her son into his future son-in-law! Spurred by Dai Zihan and Feng Qing’s remarks, Qin Xiao suddenly brewed a plan for cultivating a son-in-law. He himself had been tested for several years before he passed; his future son-in-law should start being tested from a young age! Yes, they should start with Mianmian first. Despite these musings, Qin Xiao showed nothing on his face and smiled at everyone, saying, "The guests are about settled downstairs; let’s head down together!" The group headed downstairs, with Qin Xiao and Xiao Li each carrying a child, since today, they were the main stars. After the banquet, the family returned home, with Xiao Li collapsing after a long day! Today was truly exhausting, and Xiao Li thought the previous smaller-scale celebrations were better; going large was too tiring. After resting for two days at home, the family packed and headed back to their ancestral home. With Mianmian now on summer break, she had to report to the clan school! Mianmian’s initial experience at clan school naturally needed a parental presence, so Qin Xiao and Xiao Li went back to the ancestral home with her. Qin Xiao also planned to bring two more people back from the ancestral home to help around the house. With so many children at home, Aunt Wu alone couldn’t handle it. Qin Xiao wasn’t assured of hiring outside help and preferred the trained servants at the ancestral home.

Qin’s father, Qin’s mother, Qin Tan, He Jie, and Little Dumpling didn’t come back. With only a month left until He Jie’s due date, it’s more convenient for them to stay in the city. Returning to the ancestral home without his mother for the first time since he started attending clan school wasn’t something Little Stone was happy about. Before, whenever he returned to the ancestral home for school, He Jie would accompany him, even during last winter break when He Jie was four months pregnant.
