First Assistant's Petite Wife Has Space-Chapter 153 - 153 The Four Little Ones are like Four Little Suns
153 The Four Little Ones are like Four Little Suns
The four little ones were so happy to hear about the gifts and excitedly asked Lu Gui, “What gifts? Let me see!”
“Yeah! Let’s see!”
The village kids who were here to study now all ran outside to see what happened. Many of them were jealous.
The four little ones were so lucky. Not only did they have capable parents, their grandparents and uncles all loved them so much.
Lu Gui walked inside with the bundles he had brought.
!!
Behind him, Lu Jiao accepted her fate and picked up the tofu and eggs. She really wanted to stop Lu Gui from opening the gifts in front of the other kids. However, the four little ones were so excited she would ruin the atmosphere if she said anything. So she remained quiet.
In the living room, Lu Gui opened one bundle. Inside was a stack of clothes and several pairs of shoes.
The sight of shoes reminded Lu Jiao to check out what the four little ones were wearing. The children each had two pairs of shoes made out of cloth. However, all their shoes were very old and they were originally handmade by their second auntie.
Last time in town, Lu Jiao did want to buy some shoes for the children, but she couldn’t find any. Since the cloth shoes they had were still wearable, she didn’t feel the need to make them new ones right away.
The Lu family was so considerate and saved Lu Jiao troubles.
Lu Gui took out the clothes and shoes and said to the four little ones, “These are clothes from your first aunt and these are tiger-head shoes made by your second aunt. Your grandma also made you a pair of pretty shoes.”
The four little ones happily wrapped their arms around the new clothes. They didn’t even need Lu Jiao to tell them before they started to thank Lu Gui, “Thank you grandma, thank you aunties.”
The Third Born was the happiest to see this. He already had two new sets of clothes and a set of pajamas, and now, he gained another new set of clothes and two new pairs of shoes. From now on, he’s going to look even more handsome.
The little guy’s face turned plum red and his smile stretched out so far it almost reached his ears.
The other children were insanely jealous. They knew the quadruplets just got new clothes and now they were getting even more?
Lu Gui opened the second bundle. Inside were several small bows, wooden swords, and grasshoppers and dragonflies made out of grass.
The Second Born reached for a bow right away. There was a band attached to the bow that allowed him to carry it on his back.
Lu Gui noticed how much the Second Born liked it and smiled, “Your first uncle makes this. You can carry it on your back.”
The Second Born nodded repeatedly out of joy, “Yes, yes, I know. Thank you uncle.”
The other three children also put the bows on their backs. Lu Gui took out a wooden sword and said, “This is from the second uncle. He specifically looked for this type of wood in the mountains because this kind of wood is very hard. You can use this when you exercise.”
The First Born liked this. He picked it up and found it to be heavy.
The more he looked at it, the more he liked it and started to carry it around.
As for the dragonflies and grasshoppers, they appeared just like the real thing even though they were made out of grass.
Lu Gui smiled, “These are from grandpa. He learned how to make these from someone else and brought these for you to play with.”
To make this gift, their grandpa took three days to learn how to make these. He made countless dragonflies and grasshoppers and picked the best four for the children.
The four little ones announced in unison, “Thank you, grandpa.”
Their faces now burned hot like the Sun.
Their friends from the living room saw this and were highly jealous. They started to discuss their own grandparents, there were some positive comments, and some negatives. At once, the house got rowdy.
The four little ones played with their toys and after some time, the Second Born suddenly looked up to Lu Gui, “Third uncle, what about you? You didn’t give us any toys.”
The First Born widened his eyes at the Second Born. How rude! He shouldn’t ask for things.
The Second Born stuck out his tongue guiltily and looked at their mother.
Lu Jiao didn’t say anything. She knew the kid was just talking without thinking.
The Second Born quickly apologized to Lu Gui, “I’m not asking for anything. It’s already so tiring for you to travel all the way here to give us all this stuff. We love you!”
Lu Gui’s mood shot through the clouds and his face softened.
He mysteriously peered at the four little ones, “Actually, I do have a gift for you all.”
The four little ones snapped their heads around and stared at Lu Gui.
They didn’t find anything on him.
Lu Jiao also stared strangely. What was that guy being so weird about?
Lu Gui said, “Wait here for a minute. I’ll go get it for you.”
He then ran out the gate.
The four little ones watched him leave in curiosity. Just where was their uncle going?
They looked up to Lu Jiao, “Mommy, where’s uncle going?”
Lu Jiao thought about it and her best guess was that he hid the gifts outside the trellis.
Just then, Lu Gui returned with four little baskets. As he marched in, he shouted, “See, I made you all your own little baskets. Everyone gets one. This way, you can wear your own basket if you ever go into the mountains.”
The four little ones honestly really liked the baskets.
They each took one and started to wear them right away. As they admired it, they thanked Lu Gui, “Thank you uncle! Uncle, you’re the best!”
Lu Gui’s heart felt like it had been sweetened by candy.
Since it was late, Lu Gui said to the quadruplets, “Okay, put away the gifts from your grandparents and aunts and uncles. Teach your friends how to read first.” 𝗳𝐫𝘦e𝘸𝗲𝚋𝓃𝚘v𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝒐m
The four little ones wanted to play more but they knew that if they angered their mom, they wouldn’t get to play later.
The First Born led the other three into the east bedroom to put away the gifts.
Of course, they first took the time to show off everything to Xie Yunjin before they went back to teach.
Lu Jiao and Lu Gui went into the east bedroom.
Inside, Xie Yunjin warmly greeted Lu Gui, “Brother-in-law, you’re here.”
Lu Gui nodded in response. Xie Yunjin said to Lu Jiao, “Get brother some tea.”
Xie Yunjin then started to ask Lu Gui about how the Lu family was doing.
Lu Gui felt like this was very unreal. This brother-in-law of his was usually very cold. Last time, when he visited with his mother, they acted politely toward each other but they knew there was a large distance between them.
How come this time things felt different? The distance between them was shortening and Xie Yunjin was being very enthusiastic.
Though Lu Gui didn’t understand, he was happy to hear the warm greetings from Xie Yunjin. He updated Xie Yunjin on everything that’s happened back at the Lu family.
