Chapter 2537 Growing up
Zeng Xiaoya has a good relationship with her cousins and siblings. She also gets along well with her other cousins. Even her relatives beyond the fifth degree of kinship, because they are all doctors, maintain close contact with her.
They have a large family group chat where they often discuss medical challenges. The elders, with their extensive experience, generously share their expertise and offer guidance to the younger doctors.
There were footsteps upstairs.
The two turned to look at the stairs and saw Bao Bao and Su Meng. They rubbed their eyes as they went downstairs.
"Baby, are you two awake?"
Zhan Yue waited until the two children came downstairs before asking.
"If you want to sleep more, sleep a little longer."
Don't disturb his private chat with Xiaoya; he hasn't had a chance to perform properly yet.
"Uncle Ba, I'm awake now. I'm not going to sleep anymore. Are Lele and Beibei still asleep? Meng, let's go out and play before they get up."
The baby felt that he and Su Meng could have more fun without the two little shadows following them around. With his younger siblings, he always had to be distracted by taking care of them.
"I'm hungry, Uncle Ba. These snacks look so good, Uncle Ba, can we eat them?"
Su Meng rubbed his stomach and complained of hunger. He really liked snacks, but his parents wouldn't let him eat them every day, saying that eating too much would make him fat.
With such a high level of physical activity, how could he possibly gain weight? He eats so much every day; if he just stays out and about for a few hours, he'll burn off all the calories.
They also need to practice their skills every day.
"Sure, Uncle Ba made it fresh. Try it and see if it's good."
Zhan Yue picked up a plate and handed it to Su Meng. Zeng Xiaoya quickly urged the two children to eat as well, and told them which one tasted better.
While eating, Su Meng said, "I know that all the snacks made by Uncle Zhan are delicious, much better than my dad's. My dad's snacks look very nice, but they taste much worse. They're all show and no substance."
Zhan Yue laughed and said, "That's right, our cooking skills are much better than your dad's, so your dad loves to come over for a free meal."
Before they got married, the three of them—the eldest brother, Su Nan, and Lu Dongming—were inseparable, so close that they were practically inseparable. That's why the other two often came to the Zhan family's house for meals.
It could be said that they ate at the Zhan family's house more often than they ate at their own homes.
Now, Su Meng has perfectly inherited his father's habit. Whenever he has free time, he likes to go to the Zhan family home, where he eats, stays, and plays. He treats the Zhan family home as his real home.
Haha, this kid said he would marry Beibei in the future. If he really gets his wish, it's like he's already making good connections with his future father-in-law. Zhan Yin will have to raise both his daughter and his son-in-law.
"Uncle Ba also made some snacks that you kids like to eat. Would you like some?"
"Yes, Uncle Ba, go get it quickly, I want to eat."
Zhan Yue tapped Su Meng's forehead, "You eat so much, don't let your parents scold you when you get home."
"You should eat dinner normally. Don't skip dinner if you have a snack."
Su Meng said, "What time is it now? By dinner time, I'll be starving again. Uncle Ba, cook some good food tonight, and I promise I'll give you lots and lots of food."
Zeng Xiaoya laughed and said, "Children are always running around, which consumes a lot of energy and makes them hungry quickly."
The Zhan family didn't give their children electronic devices to play with. They either played with toys or went out to run around, unlike other families who always gave their children electronic devices to play with, which led to addiction and a lack of interest in physical activity.
Zhan Yue went back to the kitchen and got some snacks he had made especially for the children.
Su Meng ate several pieces in a row, drank a glass of water, and put down the glass. He then said to Zhan Muchen, "Baby, let's go out and play. I saw a bird's nest in the tree in Uncle Ba's backyard. Let's climb up and see if there are any baby birds."
Zhan Yue didn't stop the two little ones from climbing the tree in the backyard, but he reminded them, "Be careful, don't fall from the tree. Even if there are birds, you can't catch them, just look at them."
"Okay, Uncle Ba, we're going out to play."
Su Meng grabbed the baby and ran off. Zeng Xiaoya watched the two children's happy figures and said, "Childhood is so wonderful, carefree and joyful. Sometimes I really envy children."
"When we were young, we longed to grow up quickly, but now that we're grown up, we realize that the carefree days of childhood were much better."
"Childhood should be a time of joy. We were quite wild when we were kids. We would climb up and down in the resort, and we would also run to the foot of the resort to play with the workers' children."
Their childhood playmates, those who were capable, have already started working for the Zhan Group, while those who were of average ability stayed at the resort to work, helping to manage the fruit orchards or the flower fields at the foot of the resort.
“In the past, Brother Su Nan would often come to my house, and now his son does too. The two kids grew up together and are best friends. I hope their friendship lasts, just like my brother and Brother Su Nan.”
"Yes, we grew up together and are like family. We have a deep bond."
"Xiaoya, why don't we go out for a walk and watch the two little ones climb the tree and raid the bird's nest?"
Zeng Xiaoya stood up. "Let's go."
The two of them then went out and headed towards the backyard.
Su Meng and his companion actually climbed up the tree to look at the bird's nest.
"Baby, are there baby birds in the nest?" Zhan Yue walked to the bottom of the tree and looked up to ask his nephew.
The baby replied, "There are no baby birds yet, but there are two eggs. When we climbed up, there were still birds in the nest, but they flew away when they saw us."
"Uncle Ba, will the parent birds fly back? Meng and I have been waiting here for quite a while, but we haven't seen them come back. Don't they want their eggs anymore?"
Zhan Yue chuckled and said, "If you're up in the tree, how dare they come back? Come down quickly, or your parents will beat you if they find out you climbed a tree."
The two children said "Oh," and slid down the tree with ease. Their skillful movements and speed showed that they were experienced tree climbers who often secretly climbed trees.
Then they went to swing on the swings, and after swinging, they wanted to have a contest of foot-raising skills, and Zhan Yue let them compete.
Since they both started learning kung fu on the same day and progressed at the same pace, it just came down to who was stronger.
Zhan Yue let Zeng Xiaoya sit on the swing and gently pushed it.
"They're having a competition, aren't you afraid they'll get hurt?"
"What's the big deal about getting a little injured in the competition? They're still so young and their strength is limited. Even if they get a little injured, it'll just be a superficial wound. They can just apply some ointment tonight and they'll be fine."
"They study together, practice martial arts together, and learn music, chess, poetry, and painting together. Let them compete; they won't stop for a moment."
Zeng Xiaoya looked at the two children who were fighting fiercely. She had never learned martial arts and didn't know, so she asked Zhan Yue, "Who will win?"
