When she was done changing her clothes, Dong Huang stood in front of her mother and asked, "Mother, do I look good?"
Lu Jueyu nodded and said, "Xiao Huang is as cute as usual. Co, let Mother help you braid your hair."
"Okay!"
While the mother and daughter were grooming themselves in the room, Dong Li was busy setting up the temporary roof, tables, and chairs in the yard.
Fortunately, his friends ca over today to help, so they were able to finish setting up everything before the sun rose to three poles high.
Just after he was done, he saw his sister running over, wearing new clothes. Seeing her, Dong Li said, "Xiao Huang, don’t run. Be careful of falling."
Hearing her brother’s words, Dong Huang slowed down and said, "Brother, Mother told you to wash up and change your clothes. Today is the first family banquet with our younger siblings, so we should wear new clothes."
Dong Li wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded, "Okay."
At eight o’clock, the relatives and guests arrived one after another.
With the Li family and the Lu family receiving the guests, they directed the n to the living room to enjoy tea and snacks. As for the wonfolk, they went to visit the babies and send their gifts.
When the clock hit nine o’clock in the morning, Lu Jueyu, Li Chenmo, and Dong Li finally carried the babies out for everyone to see. The mont the Li family’s elders saw the plump, fair babies, they couldn’t help but praise them over and over.
After a round of praising and teasing the babies, the Granduncle finally took out the Li family’s genealogy book and said, "Now that everyone is present, let’s add the babies into our family’s genealogy book."
Hearing this, Father Li nodded, and said, "Uncle, we will leave this matter to you."
The Granduncle nodded and asked, "Out of these three, who’s older and who’s younger?"
Lu Jueyu stepped forward and said, "Granduncle, this is the eldest of the three. His na is Li Jingyan. Jing as in ’scenery,’ and Yan as in ’colorful.’"
When they heard this, everyone nodded, and the Granduncle said, "It’s a good na."
After he recorded Li Jingyan’s na under Li Chenmo, Dong Li stepped forward and said, "Great-granduncle, this is my third brother, Li Jingxin. Jing as in ’scenery,’ and Xin as in ’day spring.’"
The Granduncle nodded again and recorded Li Jingxin’s na beside his brother’s na. Afterward, he turned to the baby girl and said, "So, my little great-grandniece is the youngest in the family."
Li Chenmo nodded and said, "Granduncle, this is my daughter, Li Jinghe. Jing as in ’scenery,’ and He as in ’crane.’"
Everyone nodded when they heard the babies’ nas. Compared to their family’s children’s nas, the nas given to their uncle’s grandchildren were nice. This might be the difference between educated and uneducated people when giving children nas.
After the registration was complete, everyone was invited to have lunch together. The banquet lasted until the afternoon before the guests left with a small bag of candies.
With the help of everyone, they finished cleaning up the house and returned the borrowed tables and chairs before sunset.
While sending off the villagers and relatives who ca to help them, Lu Jueyu gave them the leftover food and added a basket of fresh vegetables and a small bag of candies.
Standing at the gate, she said, "Thank you for coming, everyone."
Hearing her polite words, Aunt Lin waved her hand and said, "Jueyu, there is no need to be so polite with us. You always help us out. Now that you need help, it’s a given for us to co and help out."
"Sister-in-law is right. Jueyu, ah, if you need help, just let us know. We will definitely co if we are able to," a middle-aged woman added.
Lu Jueyu let out a chuckle when she heard this and replied, "Then I won’t be polite with everyone. I will surely ask for help when I need it."
"Good!"
"Alright, it’s not early anymore. We should go back so Jueyu can take a rest," Aunt Su said.
Hearing this, everyone said their goodbyes and left one after another, together with the Lu family and the Li family mbers.
Lu Jueyu stood at the entrance and saw them off. After everyone finally left, she let out a sigh of relief and raised her head.
She looked at the horizon and realized for the first ti that the sky in this world was no less beautiful than in her previous world.
While she was lost in thought, she felt a pair of arms circling her waist from behind. Feeling her husband’s warm embrace, she leaned on him and said, "Husband, today’s sunset is so beautiful."
Hearing this, Li Chenmo glanced at the sunset before he lowered his head and looked at the woman in his arms. After a mont of silence, he let out a low hum and replied, "Yes, it’s very beautiful."
With his beloved woman and his children with him, he had nothing more to ask for.
Under the warm sunset, Lu Jueyu raised her head and t her husband’s gentle gaze. Reaching out, she caressed his chin and said, "Yi Yan, thank you for finding ."
Li Chenmo was stunned by her words. But before he could react, he felt his wife’s soft lips touching his.
At this mont, he was no longer trapped in his past life’s regret and guilt. Lowering his head, he deepened the kiss before he replied gently, "Yu’er, I love you."
After so many lifetis, he finally found her.
After so many lifetis, she finally waited for him.
In this life, he was finally able to spend his lifeti with her.
In this life, she was finally able to untie the regrets in his heart.
As the sun slowly set in the western horizon, it marked the beginning of their lifeti love story and the continuation of their fates.
