Chapter 1304 Hundred-Day Banquet

Xiao Yurou had just finished her postpartum confinement and still had to take care of the children. The fact that she came to see her and the triplets so early in the morning showed how close their relationship was.

Not long after she left, relatives and friends began to arrive.

Huo Jiayuan came today, followed by Lu Licheng, who had just returned from the army.

Yunyi had just picked up Lele when she saw them come in: "When did you get back?"

Lu Licheng knew the question was directed at him: "You just got home last night."

Yun smiled and looked at her sister-in-law: "You just got home last night, and you're here so early today. Why didn't you rest a little longer?"

Huo Jiayuan was a little overwhelmed by her fourth sister-in-law's words. She glared at her sister-in-law and turned to Lu Licheng, saying, "Licheng, go and see your fourth brother. Is there anything you can help with? I'll stay here with my sister-in-law."

Lu Licheng nodded, greeted Yunyi, and left the courtyard.

As soon as they left, Yunyi teased, "People always say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and you two are practically newlyweds, so why didn't I notice?"

Huo Jiayuan blushed immediately upon hearing her fourth sister-in-law's words.

After a long pause, she awkwardly said, "I've started my period."

Previously, Huo Jiayuan had a mishap due to irregular periods, but Yunyi prescribed a remedy for her, and after a period of treatment, she finally recovered.

The Chinese medicine had been discontinued for some time, just waiting for Lu Licheng to return from his vacation.

Unexpectedly, Lu Licheng would come back early without warning, saying he wanted to surprise her. But the surprise was too much. Just as the two were getting into the mood, her period suddenly came, and they had to stop.

Yunyi was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter.

Huo Jiayuan looked embarrassed by the laughter: "Fourth Sister-in-law, why are you still laughing?"

Yunyi finally managed to stop laughing: "So how long can he stay this time?"

Huo Jiayuan's expression instantly brightened: "This time he won't leave; he'll report to the military headquarters in a week."

Yunyi was surprised that Lu Licheng acted so quickly: "Oh, it seems that your Lu Licheng has accumulated a lot of military merits in the past six months."

Huo Jiayuan leaned closer to Yunyi: "Dad and Fourth Brother have helped a lot. When you can go out again, let's go shopping together. I'll pay." Seeing that she was happy, Yunyi was happy too: "Okay, I'll be waiting."

She had barely finished speaking when she heard her second sister-in-law Gao Ruyi's voice: "What are you waiting for? What are you two talking about?"

Yunyi greeted them with a smile: "Second brother and sister-in-law, come in quickly. We were just talking about your husband."

Gao Ruyi smiled and asked, "What happened in Licheng?"

Yun smiled and looked at her sister-in-law: "The young couple no longer need to live apart."

Gao Ruyi, being a very intelligent person, immediately understood: "You've been transferred back?"

Huo Jiayuan nodded with a smile: "Yes, I have received the transfer order. I will report to the military headquarters in a week."

Huo Qianjin, who had followed him in, put down what he was carrying and looked at his sister: "Licheng is back?"

Huo Jiayuan pointed outside: "You didn't see him when you came in? Look, he's helping Fourth Brother with his work outside."

As they were talking, the rest of the Huo family and the Xia family entered the courtyard together, and the courtyard instantly became lively.

Today is Sunday, and the children are all on holiday. Soon, the crib of the triplets was surrounded by people.

Huo Xiaoyu from the third branch of the family nudged Huo Xiaoxi from the second branch beside him: "Brother, we won't be the youngest children in the family anymore."

Huo Xiaoxi looked at the triplets in the crib: "They're still so small, when will they be able to play together?"

Third Sister-in-law Yan Fang, holding her daughter Guo Lingyun's hand, chimed in, "By this time next year, they'll be able to follow behind you and play together."

After saying that, she looked at her daughter and said, "Lingyun, come here, let Mommy hold you so you can see your little brother and sister."

No one expected Guo Lingyun to suddenly say, "I'm younger than my third and fourth brothers."

Yunyi was the first to react: "Yes, our Lingyun is the youngest baby in the family, besides the triplets."

After she finished speaking, the adults gathered around realized that Lingyun clearly understood what Huo Xiaoxi and Huo Xiaoyu had said and felt that she was excluded from the Huo family.

Looking at her daughter, Yan Fang also began to wonder if her decision not to change her child's surname was ill-considered.
