The farming hustle and bustle here in Beijing is lively with the involvement of the old mischief Doctor Hu and the little genius Ping'an. Coupled with favorable weather this year, it's another bountiful harvest, and the village is filled with laughter and joy.
Meanwhile, in a small courtyard far away in the Northeast County, Zhang Guoqing's siblings have gathered after work, except for Zhang Guoqing's family.
In the living room, Mr. Zhang silently smokes a long pipe, while Mother Zhang picks up a letter from the cabinet and hands it to her youngest daughter, Zhang Meili, asking her to read it aloud to everyone.
As Zhang Meili softly finishes reading a letter from Zhang Guoqing. In the letter, her brother mentions Jiao Jiao is expecting twins and plans to have his parents take the village midwife to Beijing in May or June.
The four couples present paused, then burst into laughter, joyfully discussing this great news.
