When Shen Mingquan and his wife, He Peiyin, rushed back to their old home from the county town, they first went to their second son's house at the village entrance. After waiting for a moment, he was the first to leave.
After all, it was his daughter-in-law who had just given birth. Unlike his wife, He Peiyin, who could enter the bedroom without any reservations, he, as the father-in-law, hadn't even caught a glimpse of his new granddaughter.
After leaving his son's house, Shen Mingquan went to see his parents. By then, Mr. Shen and his wife had already heard the good news and were overjoyed at the arrival of their youngest son.
"Quick, get on the kang and warm yourself up."
There probably aren't any parents in the world who don't dote on their youngest son. Even Old Mrs. Shen made sure to tell him to take off his shoes and get on the kang to warm up before saying another word.
