Mrs. Liu was not convinced by Mrs. Sun's words. She immediately raised her head and retorted to Mrs. Sun: "Sister-in-law, you are wrong! It's not a pair of chopsticks, but two pairs!"
"Ah?" Mrs. Sun was stunned, "How can we do that? It's just Mei'er's pair!"
Mrs. Liu corrected again: "It's two pairs of chopsticks. Not only two pairs of chopsticks, but also a spoon!"
This time, Mrs. Sun reacted.
Everyone else in the kitchen also came to their senses.
Everyone had weird smiles, and they were all so affected by Liu's "open-minded" mind that they didn't know what to say.
Yang Ruoqing even directly criticized Mrs. Liu: "I mean, Fourth Aunt, what's the big deal? How old is Zhuangzhuang? How much can you eat if you open it up?"
"Stop fussing with your children and making people laugh!"
Ms. Liu stamped her feet and said in an anxious tone that was a little disappointed with Yang Ruoqing: "It's not me who cares. I'm just saving money for your parents!"
You Qing'er, why can't you understand what I mean? I'm on your parents' side!
But Liu was embarrassed to say these ventriloquism, but she hoped Yang Ruoqing could understand.
That's right, Yang Ruoqing does understand Liu's intentions and wants to please her!
However, it seems too petty to use such trivial things to please.
It is impossible for Mrs. Sun to accept such flattery from Mrs. Liu, because Mrs. Sun is not that kind of person in essence.
It is impossible for Yang Ruoqing to accept Liu's flattery, because Yang Ruoqing is not that kind of person.
So Liu's flattery this time is destined to be slapped on the horse's legs!
"Fourth Aunt, don't worry, my parents can still afford this money, so I will accept your kindness on my parents' behalf!"
Although she does not accept Liu's flattery, Yang Ruoqing cannot disparage Liu in public. After all, Liu is an elder and her starting point is to show goodwill...
After a moment of trying to save Ms. Liu's respect, Yang Ruoqing turned to Ms. Sun and said, "Mom, I'll bring two bowls of rice over later, and Auntie and I won't be coming over."
"Okay, okay!" Mrs. Sun nodded repeatedly.
In this way, Yang Ruoqing finally returned to the Luo family after explaining the matter.
In the afternoon, Blacksmith Luo woke up, and the three adults and two children came to Yang Huazhong's house next door for dinner.
Yang Ruoqing left the two children in the main room and asked Wang Cuilian and Luo Blacksmith Yang Huazhong to take care of them, while she went to the backyard kitchen to help Sun.
Seeing the dishes left on the pot table, Yang Ruoqing was stunned, "Why are there so many left? We didn't have anything to eat at noon!"
Mrs. Sun smiled bitterly: "They all say they are not hungry and have no appetite."
Yang Ruoqing smiled awkwardly, how could she not be hungry? To put it bluntly, I was disgusted by what happened to my second uncle Yang Hualin, and I had a psychological shadow, so I lost the desire to eat.
Yang Ruoqing didn't say much. While helping Sun's hot dishes, she talked about the interesting things that happened after the reunion was over.
Mrs. Sun was also smiling when she heard the interesting stories about the two children. As they went back and forth, they talked about the affairs of Yang Huamei's family at noon.
Sun said to Yang Ruoqing: "Dabai and Xiaohei are really ignorant. They didn't even go home to burn incense during the Ghost Festival, which made your aunt very angry."
Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, "Dabai didn't even reply?"
Xiao Hei didn't come back, but Yang Ruoqing could still accept it, because Xiao Hei was a bad guy.
And if Baymax doesn't come back, it's a bit unreasonable.
After all, during this period of time, whenever Xiao Hei was acting stupidly, Dabai tried his best to play a sensible role, and now Dabai is indeed the financial backbone of Lao Wang's family.
Not coming back for the Hungry Ghost Festival?
"Business can be done all year round, but there is only one day during the Ghost Festival," Yang Ruoqing said.
"No matter how busy the business is, it's okay to take a day off today. It really doesn't make sense not to come back to offer sacrifices to our ancestors like this!"
So this time, it’s not the fault of Yang Huamei being annoyed, other people would also be annoyed by this matter.
"Maybe he came back later in the afternoon. After all, my aunt didn't come over in the afternoon, so everything is subject to change."
However, Yang Ruoqing's words were quickly slapped in the face.
Because when the dinner was served, Yang Huamei came over again, looking downcast and disgraced.
I came here alone this time, without Zhuangzhuang.
At night, Mrs. Tan didn't come over for dinner, only Lao Yang was there.
Seeing Yang Huamei's appearance, the old man was surprised.
"Why did you come here alone at night? Did something happen again?" he asked.
Yang Huamei shook her head, "It's okay, it's okay."
He said it was okay, but when he shook his head, tears were thrown out of his eyes, like rain!
Lao Yang suddenly became anxious and put down his chopsticks.
"What's going on? You tell me, weren't you fine when you left at noon?" Old Yangtou asked again.
At this time, everyone else at the table also turned their attention to Yang Huamei.
Mrs. Sun even came over to support Yang Huamei, "You haven't had dinner yet. Come, sit down and eat together. We have just used chopsticks."
Yang Huamei shook her head and said to Mrs. Sun: "Third sister-in-law, you can eat. I can't eat. I'll sit down for a while."
Sun supported Yang Huamei and looked at the other people at the table with some embarrassment.
With Yang Huamei looking like this, how can anyone else be in the mood to eat it?
Yang Ruoqing and Wang Cuilian were both busy feeding Tuan Yuan Yuan and eating egg custard. After hearing Yang Huamei's words, Yang Ruoqing raised her head and looked over.
"Auntie, just tell me what's wrong. You don't even eat, don't say anything, just sit aside and wipe your tears. How do you want us all to swallow it? Hurry up!"
Yang Huamei felt a little embarrassed when she was urged by Yang Ruoqing so forcefully.
But she turned her attention to Lao Yangtou and Yang Huazhong, and found that they had indeed stopped holding the chopsticks in their hands and looked here.
The same goes for Blacksmith Luo and Wang Cuilian.
"Qing'er is right. There are no outsiders here. Just say whatever you want. After we finish talking, we have to continue eating!" Yang Huazhong was really fed up with Yang Huamei's behavior. He went back to his parents' house in tears, but nothing happened when he came back. If I don’t tell you, it’s a bit annoying to have others keep asking questions!
Yang Huamei raised her sleeves, wiped the tears from her face, and said in a hoarse voice: "When the sun set earlier, Dabai came back. He brought incense candles and toilet paper and other things, and went with me to the river dam at the entrance of the village. Burn some incense."
Hearing that Dabai was back, Yang Ruoqing and Sun exchanged glances subconsciously.
Both women saw the same surprise in each other's eyes. It turned out that their misunderstanding was revealed? Is Dabai really back?
"It'll be good when you come back. Even if you don't go to the grave, you can just burn it by the river when your heart is ready." Old Yangtou is the most senior person here, so the effect is best if he says this, and no one else can. Possible rebuttal.
Sure enough, everyone else nodded.
Yang Huazhong even smiled with relief: "Originally, we heard that none of Big White and Little Black came back, and we were all a little annoyed."
