"Grandpa...what did Tianbao say?" Fan Xiaowu came back from outside.

"Where have you been?" Doctor Fan saw him coming back with a smile on his face.

"We went out for a walk. Everyone was happy for Tianbao... Shen Mei plans to go to the capital after the New Year. After the New Year, I asked Yan Yi to give her a gift..."

"do you want to go?"

Fan Xiaowu was stunned for a moment, "Grandpa, do you want me to go?"

Doctor Fan sighed, "Actually, I'm not your grandfather..."

"I know."

"You know?" Dr. Fan looked at him in surprise, and then nodded, "Yes, you are so smart, you must know."

"Then... who am I, grandpa?" Fan Xiaowu asked.

“I am your great-uncle, your maternal grandfather and your maternal grandmother are no longer here.

They only have one daughter, your mother..."

Fan Xiaowu was not very interested in this, so he asked, "Then...can I go to the capital?"

He wanted to find Tianbao, and he could only feel at ease by staying by her side.

"You can't do it now. Pack your things and I'll take you to a place."

"Where?"

"Wei Mansion, Wangcheng."

"What's that place?"

"It's grandpa's home. I haven't been back for a long time. It's time to go back and have a look."

New Year's Eve—Beijing

"Sister-in-law..." Li Xiaoning and Li Tong came back from the street and bought a lot of things.

Tian Baozheng and Li Shubai were transplanting plum blossoms behind the attic.

Yesterday, the Hou Mansion sent some pots of plum blossoms. They probably knew Tianbao liked them, so they directly transplanted some of them.

"I wonder if the plum blossoms are blooming at home?" Tianbao wiped the dirt from his face.

"It's definitely blooming, but it's a pity that we can't see it this year." Li Shubai planted the last tree.

Li Xiaoning showed them the box in his hand, "We bought a lot of firecrackers, many of them in different styles."

"Tianbao, Shubai..."

It's Li Jin's voice.

"Let's go...go to the front and take a look. We must have eaten." Li Shubai urged.

After lunch, Qian Xiaoxiao and Mrs. Qin began to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner.

Because it was their first time to celebrate the New Year away from home, and also their first time to celebrate the New Year in the capital, Li Jinrang prepared more food to make it richer.

They also have a good year outside.

Shen Yi brought several jars of wine in the afternoon.

"I am celebrating the New Year alone in the capital this year, and my grandfather is not here either. Being alone in such a big mansion...it's too deserted..."

Li Jin hugged him and said, "It's okay. From now on, we will be your family and we will come here to celebrate the New Year."

Shen Yi was waiting for this sentence: "Brother Li, I won't be polite."

"Why are you so polite? We are all brothers." Li Jin patted him on the shoulder.

Tianbao was led by Li Xiaoning and ran outside the alley.

There are many children playing outside the alley, most of them from this area.

Everyone knew that they were new neighbors, so they generously asked them to join their group.

There was an eight or nine-year-old child inside, running around in the alley with Tianbao and a group of other children.

"It's getting late, let's stay here, Tianbao, Xiaoning, we'll continue playing tomorrow."

Tianbao and the others nodded and waved to a few people.

Everyone went home.

The two of them smelled the fragrance as soon as they entered the door.

"It smells so good..." Li Xiaoning took Tianbao and ran to the kitchen.

Mrs. Qin smiled when she saw them and put a few pieces of fish and fried chicken on a plate.

"Miss, you can take it and eat it first."

Li Xiaoning took it with a smile, holding the plate and eating as he walked.

"Eldest brother and Shen Yi are playing chess... let's go take a look..." Li Xiaoning dragged Tianbao to sit next to Shen Yi and the others.

"Shubai, move to the left." Tianbao pointed at the chessboard.

"You have to think carefully about this move." Tian Bao looked at Shen Yi who picked up the chess pieces and wanted to make a decision.

Shen Yi rubbed his wrist, "Tianbao... why not... let's play a game? I'm actually pretty good at chess, and my grandfather even praised me."

Tianbao was still chewing something and his mouth was bulging.

"Okay, let's play. I haven't played chess for a long time." Tianbao rolled up his sleeves.

Li Shubai smiled and gave way to Tianbao.

Li Xiaoning hugged Li Hua, who had just jumped over. "Little Li Hua, let's see how my sister-in-law tortures people later."

Shen Yi looked at her funny, "How old is Tianbao? Just because she's good at medicine doesn't mean she's good at chess..."

Then he started getting slapped in the face.

"No, no, no...I won't go down here..."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute...I'll think about it..."

"Don't do it yet...I just thought about taking this step..."

"Shen Yi, you are so ungentlemanlike when you play chess. How can you regret it all the time?" Li Xiaoning was speechless.

Shen Yi scratched his head, "Then I didn't know Tianbao was so good at chess. Am I not looking for abuse?"

Tianbao looked at him with a smile, "It's not very good, just average."

Xiaoqing crawled to Tianbao's feet, and Tianbao carried it to the chessboard. "Xiaoqing, look, my chess skills have improved again."

Xiaoqing raised her head and took a look: Tianbao is really amazing.

Shen Yi was still a little bit cold when he saw Xiao Qing. He stood up and pulled Li Shubai, "Shubai... let's go to your study."

Tianbao hugged the little green snake, "It doesn't bite, it's very cute."

Shen Yi rubbed his arm, "Why do I feel a little cold?"

"Coward, if I were here I would definitely laugh at you again." Li Xiaoning stepped forward and touched Xiao Qing's head, "Our Xiao Qing is so cute."

"Isn't it because she's not here? Besides, I'm not afraid of that little girl."

"媗媗 will be here in a while. It's almost February. I'm leaving home after the Chinese New Year. I'm spending some time on the way... It's almost February, just in time for the enrollment of the Royal Medical Clinic." Tianbao looked at a few people. explain.

Shen Yi exclaimed, "Is she coming too?"

"It's time to eat...it's time to eat..." Li Tong shouted from the front.

"Let's go...eat..." Li Xiaoning led Tianbao forward.

The New Year's Eve dinner was very sumptuous. Mrs. Qin and the others put all the food on the table before they left.

Qian Xiaoxiao also left a table of dishes for Mrs. Qin, Lulan and the others, and asked them to set up a table in the yard.

Li Jin: "This is our first year in the capital. Shubai, you must study hard and try to bring your grandparents, uncle, and aunt to the capital to celebrate the New Year next year and the year after that."

Li Shubai nodded, "I will work hard."

Li Tong smiled and said, "To celebrate the New Year today, I would like to say a few words... This is the first time for us to leave home and the place where we grew up. I only hope that our family can reunite in the capital in the future."

Tianbao thought for a while, "You can pick them up anytime you want, but your parents may not come."

Qian Xiaoxiao nodded, "They have never been out in their lives, so they really may not come."

"Eat, eat, eat... let's eat first. Who can say for sure what will happen next? Maybe they will want to come by then?" Li Jin picked up the chopsticks.

Everyone also picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

"Come on, Tianbao, Xiao Ning eat more...Shu Bai eats too...Ayi, you eat too." Qian Xiaoxiao picked up vegetables for them all.
