"Fortunately, my uncle rushed over after hearing the news. Now, everyone has been brought to us with gifts."
"My uncle told me privately that I should come to the backyard and tell you about the situation," he said.
"I understand what uncle means," Yang Ruoqing said.
"Today is a special and good day. I don't want to hit the smiling person. I still have some grace." She said.
"To give my uncle some face, and to give us some face, let's go to the front yard to say hello to our aunt and cousin."
"Wait for me for a moment, and I'll go back to the kitchen to explain."
Yang Ruoqing turned back to the kitchen and came out soon.
"Let's go!"
The young couple soon came to the small garden, and at a glance they saw Blacksmith Luo arranging the four members of Luo Daye's family on a table.
At the same table as Luo Daye and the others were the village matchmaker Zhou's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Matchmaker Zhou's natal family is in Zhoujia Village, and the man who died with Luo Daye was a relative of her family.
When it comes to seniority, Luo Daye has to call Matchmaker Zhou an aunt.
So now Blacksmith Luo arranged them on a table, and Luo Da'e and Matchmaker Zhou were chatting happily!
Zhou Wang sat aside, drinking tea and eating melon seeds.
Zhou Xia sat there, holding a small and exquisite Xiangfei fan in her hand, fanning it carelessly.
The breeze gently floated a thin layer of air bangs on the forehead, and a pair of graceful eyes looked at the garden with ripples of light.
Suddenly, when his eyes caught sight of a pair of figures approaching, he paused slightly.
After something strange flashed across her eyes, Zhou Xia half covered her pretty face with her fan, her eyebrows were lowered, and she looked as supple as water.
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang had also come to the table. Blacksmith Luo was very happy to see them coming together.
He stood up hurriedly and said: "Qing'er, your aunt is too polite. She even came here to give me a birthday gift. Look at this..."
Yang Ruoqing looked at Luo Da'e with a smile, and gave a gentle salute in front of everyone.
"Auntie, you are considerate, thank you very much," she said.
Luo Da'e stopped talking to Matchmaker Zhou and turned to face Yang Ruoqing. The smile on Luo Da'e's face was much less.
"Niece-in-law, it's not me, the aunt, who wants to talk to you. What you did in this matter is really unreasonable!" Luo Da'e said.
As soon as these words came out, Blacksmith Luo's expression changed.
But then Luo Da'e's voice sounded again: "You said your uncle, my brother, is celebrating his forty-eighth birthday. For such a big event, you should send a message to our Zhoujia Village, right?"
"It was just done in such a muffled tone. If your cousin Xia'er hadn't been careful and kept her uncle's birthday in mind, we might have missed it!" Luo Da'e said again.
Hearing this, Yang Ruoqing smiled and said, "Auntie, I don't dare to accept your scolding."
"My uncle has been diligent and thrifty all his life, and he is very low-key in his life and work. This time he is hosting a few banquets and inviting everyone to come over and have a few drinks. He doesn't plan to make it a big deal."
"So, naturally I don't want to alarm you, aunt."
"Because Tang Yazi and I both know that my aunt's family has a lot of things to do now, and we can't share much, so naturally we are embarrassed to burden you, aunt," Yang Ruoqing said.
On the side, Wang Cuilian also said quickly: "Yes, I mean the same thing as Qing'er."
"Da'e, your Xia'er is back. Now you are going to be a grandma again. You have a lot of things at hand. Our relatives don't have to worry about these things," she said.
Luo Daye said: "Sister-in-law, niece-in-law, if you want to say this, I will really not be happy about it."
"I, Luo Da'e, am just such a dear brother. He is celebrating his birthday. No matter how busy or tired I am, I have to find time to come over, otherwise others will poke my spine."
Luo Da'e spoke so hard that she was spitting, as if she had taken the moral high ground.
Yang Ruoqing smiled.
"Haha, why is my aunt so cowardly now? When my uncle was thirty-six years old, he didn't even have a boiled egg, and no one dared to poke your spine!"
"Auntie, your spine and bones are so strong, you're not afraid of being poked!" she said.
The sentence was almost a joke and immediately blocked Luo Da'e.
Luo Da'e turned her eyes and said: "Oh, everyone was having a hard time at that time. We ate every meal but didn't finish our meal. I can't even remember Xia'er and Wang'er's birthdays!"
"By the way, speaking of coming here to give birthday gifts today, it's all thanks to our Xia'er!"
Luo Da'e continued: "If she hadn't remembered, I would have had my spine poked again this time, Xia'er, don't you think so?"
Having said this, Zhou Xia stood up slowly and smiled shyly at Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing.
"My mother's words are serious. I just used to light a wishing lamp for my uncle when I was practicing in the temple."
"So I just wanted to remember my uncle's birthday and other things more firmly. I didn't expect that it would come in handy this time, haha..." Zhou Xia said.
Light a wishing lantern?
Is this throwing information eggs to the onlookers including Blacksmith Luo?
Is this to express how much her niece respects her uncle?
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang glanced at each other quietly, and they both saw the same thing in each other's eyes.
Damn this Zhou Xia, any word she says is a drama!
The most amazing movie queen!
Look, Blacksmith Luo, who was slightly dissatisfied with Luo Da'e's shameless accusations before, is looking at Zhou Xia blankly at this moment. The man's face is full of emotion!
"Xia'er, it's hard for you to treat my uncle like this!" Blacksmith Luo said.
Zhou Xia smiled more meekly, "Respecting my uncle means respecting my mother. It is Xia'er's duty as a junior."
Luo Daye grabbed the conversation and said, "Brother, you don't know. Our Xia'er often tells me."
"She said, Mom, my uncle only has a cousin on his knees. My cousin is a man, so there are some things that girls are not as considerate and thoughtful about."
"Besides, my cousin is married and has his own career to pursue."
"As a niece, she is more than half of your daughter."
"Come here this time. We have packed our clothes and plan to stay with you for a few more days. Brother, do you agree?" Luo Da'e asked.
"Ah? What?"
Blacksmith Luo was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Luo Daye said.
Beside, Wang Cuilian was already a little dissatisfied.
"Da'e said, come here now and won't go back. I will stay to keep you company. I feel sorry for your loneliness!" said the woman.
She is now his wife and stays with him day and night.
Is it possible that I want you, a girl who has been married for more than 20 years, to come back to accompany your brother?
