Sure, here’s the translation:

Sitting quietly waiting for the dishes, the atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Miao Lishan finally asked a question, "What is this child’s name? How many children does Xiao Li have?"

Jiang Jiangyu’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and quickly replied, "Xiao Li is currently three months pregnant. Besides this girl, there’s a son a little over two years old. This girl’s official name is Ma Weihong, named by her grandfather, but she has several nicknames, eventually her dad kept calling her Little Treasure, which became a nickname."

The little girl immediately boasted to the twins, "My younger brother Little Bump is so well-behaved. My grandma really likes him." After speaking, seeing the twins weren’t looking at her, she angrily widened her eyes, "My grandma said, when Little Bump grows up he can become a great general."

Liu Yi sneakily glanced at the chatting Miao Lishan and Jiang Jiangyu, and whispered back to her, "Idiot."

Little Ping’an glanced at the unrestrained Zhou Jiao, a nice arc curled at his lips, sitting there sternly like his grandfather Zhou Xiaozheng.

May 1st couldn’t resist adding, "Your grandma doesn’t like you."

This startled Zhou Jiao. She suddenly realized her youngest son had a sharp tongue. This wouldn’t do! Harsh words easily offend people.

"Lies! My grandma doesn’t care for Sister Da Ya, she just likes Little Treasure." The little girl pouted, "My grandmother said our family has two grandfathers, everyone must like me."

There was a hint of a sarcastic smile in Zhou Jiao’s eyes.

True to Jiang Jiangyu, nobody has better family discipline!

Next to her, May 1st saw both older brothers silent, turned his bright round eyes around, clapped his chubby little hands, and giggled, "Your grandma likes your two grandfathers."

Zhou Jiao quickly, softly forbade it, though children’s words are innocent, she didn’t like her kids getting too involved with these people. If her mom hadn’t spoken, she would have definitely made the other party tactfully leave.

However, she glanced again at Jiang Jiangyu. She knew how to read the room, find topics, constantly revealing family embarrassments, keeping her mom completely attentive.

After eating, they each separated on the way home, night had already fallen, and there were quite a few pedestrians strolling out to cool off.

Miao Lishan was still digesting the news of Lin Xuelin’s passing. Ping’an was already grumbling discontentedly to her, "Grandma, she was an enemy who hurt my mom."

"Sigh... Grandma could never forget. Just thinking of her as a child... sigh... leaving so young, it’s such a shame."

Ping’an knew his grandmother was acting up again, if his grandfather heard this, he would be so angry. Originally a good meal, all he heard was bad news unrelated to the family, which completely ruined his appetite.

Thinking about this, he turned his head towards Zhou Jiao, "Mom, how much did you pay just now?"

Zhou Jiao amusingly glanced at him, "Twenty-two bucks and a bit."

Ping’an quietly calculated how much those outsiders ate, and held his chest in distress, "How much do you earn at work every day? We can’t invite outsiders in the future. That little girl alone ordered two portions of ice cream and two cakes, and ate a lot of other dishes, Liu Yi and May 1st didn’t eat much."

Zhou Jiao was quite helpless!

"What can you do when people don’t leave? You can’t exactly drive them away."

Ping’an’s eyes flashed mischievous laughter, "Next time we meet those who can’t count, we’ll order more meat dishes, and not pay afterward. Let’s see who dares to approach."

Miao Lishan chuckled as she heard and touched his head.

"You and my grandma just care about appearances. Look at that person who said she would treat, but when it was time to pay, she kept patting her pockets and couldn’t find the money? I was worried she’d wear out the pockets of her pants."

Miao Lishan knew the character of the former second sister-in-law, and laughed heartily as she listened.

"Grandma, don’t underestimate this matter. If people intentionally do this, wherever we go in the future, once she knows and follows, this trick will surely work against her."

"Liu Yi, May 1st, big brother teaches you something."

Seeing Ping’an talking to his younger brothers, the twins nodded repeatedly and blinked at him.

"If you meet someone being unreasonable, we must be more unreasonable than them. Cry if you need to cry, make a fuss if you need to make a fuss. You say that little girl is stupid? But she was full."

Little Ping’an shook his head as he spoke, "So you were really stupid today too. When mom was paying, you should have grabbed mom and grandma, crying and making a fuss to leave."

"Me, stupid?" Liu Yi asked himself, looked at Zhou Jiao and her daughters, and then at May 1st next to him. Everyone always praised him for being smart.

"Oh?" May 1st widened his big eyes, looked at Liu Yi, then at Ping’an, paused for a moment, "Brother’s stupid, brother doesn’t cry."

"Your brother’s older, crying will get laughed at. You and Liu Yi are just kids, crying won’t get you laughed at and they’ll say you’re smart."

Upon hearing that, Zhou Jiao smiled. She really couldn’t understand the children’s world.

She spent the next day with the kids all day, and by evening, as she looked at her three sons, Zhou Jiao mentioned she’d be going on a business trip tomorrow.

Once Ping’an heard, he immediately asked, "Mom, is it dangerous?"

Her son’s words warmed her heart, "No, there’s a batch of imported machines arriving, Mom and colleagues will go inspect and return once done."

"Does my grandfather know?"

Zhou Jiao nodded with a smile, but felt uneasy inside. She then carefully instructed, "Mom isn’t home, accompany your brothers more, don’t leave the Big Courtyard, don’t let kids in the courtyard bully them. Of course, if someone provokes you, don’t hesitate to fight back."

Little Ping’an earnestly said, "What you and my grandfather taught, all remembered. As long as we have reason, won’t cause death, fight if we must."

Liu Yi looked at the conversation between Zhou Jiao and Ping’an, nudged his fluffy little head towards her arms, and as May 1st saw, he quickly pulled his arm, and squeezed himself into her arms.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiao hurriedly hugged her two younger sons, "Do you not want Mommy to go on a business trip?"

"I want to sleep with Mom when it’s dark."

"I like Mom too."

Zhou Jiao sighed softly, then looked at Ping’an’s eyes which showed reluctance, and smiled comfortingly, "Mommy will be away for at most a week, which is at most six nights."

"Think quickly, you three brothers, what do you want for gifts?"

May 1st looked up and pouted at her, "Don’t want gifts, Mommy come home early."

"I miss Grandpa, miss Dad."

Zhou Jiao certainly understood what Liu Yi meant. Before, when she wasn’t home, her dad and Zhang Guoqing spent nights at home with the kids.

Little Ping’an looked at his saddened mother, patted his two younger brothers, "Grandpa and Dad will be home soon. Big brother will also accompany you at home. Once us three brothers learn well, Mom won’t need to work anymore."

Liu Yi waved his chubby little arms like lotus roots, "Brother, I want to grow up fast, I want to practice horse stance."

May 1st, unwilling to be outdone, raised his voice, "Brother, I want to learn to hunt and earn money too."

Listening to the childish words of her three sons, Zhou Jiao’s sorrow disappeared with a smile. She intentionally touched the twins’ chubby little legs, thinking they’ll need them to practice horse stance.
