"That's good, at least she can eat our cooking again," Ruan Wanfu said with emotion.

Zhang Yufang and Ruan Yanyan acted as if nothing had happened, as if everything had returned to its original calm. Although they couldn't see Ruan Mumu in person, they could clearly sense her presence through the dwindling number of items in their home. It felt as if she had always been by their side, just unseen.

"Alright, Yan Yan, go call Grandma down for dinner!" Zhang Yufang gently instructed her youngest son as she set out the bowls and chopsticks. Ruan Yan Yan nodded happily and then dashed upstairs like a gust of wind.

Just then, the sound of a car came from outside. Without guessing, it was clear that Ruan Haohao and his wife had returned.

"Mom and Dad, we're back!" Liao Jiaqi called out loudly from outside the door before she even stepped inside. Immediately afterward, two figures slowly walked into the house.

Just then, the elevator doors opened, and an elderly woman with gray hair and a kind face was helped out by Ruan Yanyan. The old woman was wearing a loose blue cheongsam and comfortable cloth shoes. Her steps were slightly unsteady, but the joy and kindness in her eyes were heartwarming.

"Grandma..." Upon seeing the old lady, Liao Jiaqi's face immediately lit up with a bright smile. She sweetly rushed towards the old lady and gently hugged her. Her voice was clear and melodious, full of respect and love for the old lady.

The old lady smiled and responded to Liao Jiaqi's hug, her eyes sparkling with love and care. She said gently, "Qiqi! It's been so long since I've seen you. You've become more and more beautiful." The old lady was very pleased with Liao Jiaqi's affectionate gesture and gently patted Liao Jiaqi's back in return, expressing her fondness.

"Mom, come and eat!" Zhang Yufang stood by the dining table, smiling as she called to the old lady. Her voice carried a hint of concern and anticipation, hoping that the old lady could sit down as soon as possible and enjoy this warm dinner together.

The old lady nodded, indicating that she had heard Zhang Yufang's call. She slowly walked to the dining table and sat down in her designated spot. Due to her advanced age, the old lady's legs were a little weak, and her movements were somewhat slow. Liao Jiaqi quickly stepped forward to help the old lady sit down.

"Grandma, Mom and Dad, Qiqi has good news to announce!" As soon as the family sat down, Ruan Haohao eagerly announced to everyone. His expression was excited and thrilled, and his eyes sparkled with joy.

All eyes turned to Liao Jiaqi, their expressions filled with concern and anticipation. They waited quietly for Liao Jiaqi to reveal the answer, their hearts brimming with curiosity and excitement.

"Grandma, Mom and Dad, I'm going to be a mom too!" Liao Jiaqi excitedly announced the good news, her voice filled with happiness and joy. Although everyone had already guessed this outcome, the whole family was still immersed in joy and emotion when she said it herself.

"We've finally been waiting for our child, and I'm about to hold my little grandson in my arms. Qiqi, we all want to thank you. You're a great hero to our family." The old lady looked at her granddaughter-in-law with kindness, her eyes filled with gratitude and joy.

"Grandma, the doctor said they're twins!" Ruan Haohao added excitedly from the side. His voice revealed an undisguised joy.

"Really? Ah! Twins! Ah! They're actually twins! That's wonderful!" Zhang Yufang was so excited upon hearing that they were twins that she was almost incoherent. Her face was beaming with happiness, and she clasped her hands tightly together, as if she wanted to keep this joy in her heart forever.

"You little rascal, you've finally become a dad! Congratulations! Well done, and twins at that! Our Ruan family is truly thriving!" Ruan Wanfu said, patting Ruan Haohao on the shoulder. His tone was filled with relief and pride, and his eyes revealed his pride in his son's growth.

"It must be your sister's spirit protecting you from heaven..." The old lady began to ramble on again, tears welling up in her eyes. She thought of her deceased granddaughter, and an endless longing and emotion welled up in her heart.

“Mom…” Zhang Yufang interrupted the old lady, her face showing some worry. At this moment, she was torn about whether to tell the old lady about Ruan Mumu. She worried that the old lady would be too agitated after learning the truth, and might even faint.

Ruan Wanfu winked at Zhang Yufang, telling her not to mention Ruan Mumu's matter yet. The fact that Liao Jiaqi was pregnant with twins had already greatly upset the old lady. What if the old lady got too agitated and fainted?

"Mom, today is a very happy day for Qiqi, we should say something joyful!" Zhang Yufang put a piece of fish on the old lady's plate with a big smile.

“Yes, Grandma, this is a very happy occasion for my sister-in-law. If you want to make her happy, say something.” Ruan Yanyan also put a slice of meat on her grandmother’s plate.

"Qiqi, come on, eat more fish." Zhang Yufang put a piece of fish on Liao Jiaqi's plate.

"Ugh~" Liao Jiaqi smelled the fishy smell and suddenly couldn't help rushing to the bathroom. Ruan Haohao followed his wife and hurriedly went after her.

"Hehehe..." Zhang Yufang couldn't help but feel happy as she looked at the scene.

Ruan Haohao and Liao Jiaqi have been married for two years. They are both quite young, but since their marriage, they have always wanted a child. Unfortunately, despite all this time, they haven't been able to conceive.

Zhang Yufang didn't show much anxiety about this matter. After all, young people have plenty of time and opportunities in their lives. However, Liao Jiaqi herself felt increasingly uneasy.

She worried that not having children would upset her mother-in-law. At the same time, her own mother often urged her, telling her that it would be difficult for a woman to gain a foothold in her husband's family if she didn't have children.

These words put immense pressure on Liao Jiaqi, making her even more eager to get pregnant. But things often don't go as planned; the more anxious she became, the harder it was to achieve her wish.

Now she is pregnant with twins, just as she wished. Even with such strong pregnancy symptoms, Liao Jiaqi feels it is a sweet burden.
