In journalism, there are no holidays, even in the Chinese New Year's Eve, there will be people who want to read newspapers. Therefore, a few people were left in each department to continue to work overtime in the newspaper office after the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month. Basically, the workload at this time is smaller than usual, and the newspaper also signed a few advertisements, Zhang Sanjia's fireworks, Li Sijia's paper-cutting, and Wang Wujia's red lanterns.

On the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, Lin Can sorted out the information in the morning, looked at the bill with the accountant, and went out in a hurry, planning to go to Ming Qiao's house for a meal at noon. Mingqiao is now the time to raise a baby, and the food is both hearty and exquisite. The Cao family has this one son in Cao Yan's generation, so Cao Yan's parents want to hold their grandson as soon as possible. Mingqiao took a vacation early to conceive a child, and now that she is really pregnant, the two old men of the Cao family don't want her to go to work. Cao Yan also attaches great importance to children, a big man also believes in gods and Buddhas, and took Mingqiao to the most divine temple in Chicheng to worship, and asked for a peace charm for the unborn child and Mingqiao. Mingqiao had experienced the joy of work before, and he also knew that the work of the newspaper was relatively busy, which was not very conducive to raising a baby. It just so happened that Tao Tao was also back, and she could take over her previous position, so she simply took a big vacation.

When Lin Can came, he thought that Mingqiao would be idle, but who knew that when he went, he happened to see that Mingqiao was learning embroidery. Mingqiao's mother was born as a maid, so she taught Mingqiao a lot of life skills. Ming Qiao is planning to make clothes for the unborn child, although he doesn't know the gender, but the two of them don't plan to have only one child, so the man and woman make one each, and it can be used when they give birth to one. Of course, ordinary clothes can be made, but who doesn't want their children to wear the best, so they specially found an embroidery girl to learn embroidery. Lin Can also appreciates the technique of embroidery, but he doesn't plan to learn it, so he feels that it is not interesting after watching it for a while. Ming Qiao chatted with Lin Can while embroidering, and the two chatted a lot. Lin Can is always worried that Cao Yan's parents will be patriarchal, what if the first child is a daughter. Ming Qiao said indifferently, "I was also worried at first, but Cao Yan told me that even if it is a daughter, his parents like it, because his parents were busy starting a business after only giving birth to him when they were young, and they originally wanted to have two more children, but until they settled down, both of them were in their forties, and they didn't have any more children." So both of them will also like their granddaughter. Lin Can is really envious of Mingqiao.

She told Ming Qiao about Deng Lin going to take her to the General's Mansion tomorrow, "I'm still a little nervous, and his parents went to me before, saying that they didn't want me to be with Deng Lin." If I were to go to the General's Mansion for the New Year, I wouldn't dare to think about what they would say. Mingqiao sneered, "I don't know what they're thinking. Lin Can felt a headache and panicked, "I promised Deng Lin to go, not everyone can meet a mother-in-law who is close to you like you." Don't worry, I won't be bullied again. "I am only filial to Deng Lin, and I am not obedient to his parents in everything. Besides, didn't his parents return to Nanjing City, and didn't they always live with you, if you have anything in the future, you will come to me or Cao Yan for help, if not, go to Bai Que Lou, he is also a person who grew up with you since childhood. Deng Lin asked you to move to the General's Mansion to live, just to have a definite relationship with you, and I know that you are also interested in him. But you can't be wronged too much in his house, you know?"

Lin Can nodded, very moved in his heart. After Ming Qiao warmed Lin Can's heart, he planned to warm Lin Can's stomach again. During this time, she was pregnant, and by the way, she also studied the recipes, most of which were for fetal support, and some of them were for Cao Yan's stomach. Anyway, it's all warm meals, and Lin Can came just in time. After Ming Qiao handed over the set recipe to the kitchen person, he took Lin Can to the study and showed Lin Can the name of the child she and Cao Yan had set. It wasn't until someone came to call them when the meal was ready that the two of them came out of the study to eat. Cao Yan didn't come back to eat at noon, and his parents happened to go to a relative's house today, so the restaurant was just the two of them, and it was more relaxed. Lin Canmei ate a meal, and then took a nap at her house at Mingqiao's invitation. When I woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, so I skipped a shift and went to buy a few small pastries, planning to visit the comrades who were still working overtime at the newspaper office in the evening.

In the evening, Lin Can and Tao Tao finished the affairs of the newspaper, and then went back to Shuanglin Mansion to pack their things. There are not many things to bring, Lin Can has already asked the driver of the newspaper to help Tao Tao deliver something in advance, and Deng Lin will send someone to help pick up her things tomorrow. But when they returned to Shuanglin Mansion, Deng Lin's car was parked at the door, and Deng Lin was sitting in the car waiting for her. Seeing them come back, Deng Lin got out of the car, "I want to help you deliver something now, tomorrow is the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month, and there will be a lot of pasta and pastries steamed at home in the morning." If you come back with me tonight, you can sleep in tomorrow and get up again to eat. In fact, Lin Can didn't have any attachment to sleeping lazy, but Tao Tao also approached her and said, "I'll go back to my house tonight to sleep, and by the way, I will also make some pasta tomorrow for my brother to eat." “

So under Deng Lin's sudden and deliberate visit, Lin Can went to Shuanglin Mansion one night in advance.
