Chapter 504: Chapter 504: A Guest Cos Calling Chapter 504: Chapter 504: A Guest Cos Calling Zhou Guifang, having listened to her husband’s words, said to Luo Qiao, “You can’t do this again in the future. I’ll reimburse you for the money later.”
Luo Qiao replied, “Let’s talk about this later, Grandma. We have important business to attend to today.”
Zhou Guifang quickly told her grandsons to put the things in the storage room of the kitchen first, and then take out what was needed for the day. She worried what people might think if they saw all of it.
Using Uncle Sun’s tricycle, Grandpa brought back vegetables picked from the forest. After returning the tricycle, Luo Qiao thanked Uncle Sun and pulled out a handful of fruit candies from her pocket for Uncle Sun’s little grandson.
Auntie Sun hurried over to help catch them, “Qiaoqiao, you’re too polite.” Her face bead with a smile she couldn’t hide.
Luo Qiao then said, “I should go now. Uncle Sun, Auntie Sun, co over earlier at noon.”
Auntie Sun smiled as she saw Luo Qiao out, “We’ll co over in a bit to help, to share in the joy.”
As Luo Qiao turned into the alley, soone called from behind, “Qiaoqiao, wait for , Fourth Brother!”
She turned around to see her fourth brother running towards her with two large bags, “Fourth Brother, take it easy, what’s all this?”
Luo Siyuan said, “It’s seeds, peanuts, and candies that Dad had soone set aside a few days ago. I just went to pick these up and was on my way over. Dad will co later.”
Luo Qiao reached out to take one of the bags, but Luo Siyuan quickly dodged, “No need, Fourth Brother can carry it, it’s not heavy.”
The Luo Family’s courtyard soon beca bustling with activity. Neighbors ca over to help; the eldest uncle’s family and the younger uncle’s family returned soon after, and even the third brother, who was in the army, arrived shortly after they entered.
Relatives and friends who were invited also arrived one after another, all with words of praise and congratulations.
Before long, Grandma Zhou Guifang took Luo Qiao out as well to introduce her to relatives and friends, “This is the second son’s daughter, Luo Qiao.”
Luo Qiao greeted everyone with a smile.
Soone comnted, “Look how pretty this girl is.”
Another person added, “The children of the Luo family are all good-looking. Those two boys from Haoxuan’s family, I was thinking of setting them up with soone, but I was always one step behind; they had already found their match.”
And they laughed after saying this.
But the statent was indeed true. The grandsons and granddaughters of the Luo family were all handso and exquisite, Luo Xudong and Luo Xunan had suitors knocking on their door early, and the brothers both married young.
The third household’s kids were still young, and now many people were inquiring about the second household’s children, subtly hinting at the intention of forming marriage ties, but the Luo’s elderly couple had not engaged in such discussions.
They only said the focus should be on studies right now, and besides, they supported free love. They were old and just waiting to enjoy their twilight years; they could not manage their grandchildren’s affairs.
While they were talking, Luo Qiao saw her eldest and second uncles’ families coming. She hurriedly went to greet them. Although they disliked their biological mother, the uncles were quite enlightened. She wondered how her birth mother could be so foolish.
Luo Qiao called her brothers to hurry over, “Uncles, Aunties, cousins, co in.”
Ning Hongda, seeing his nephews, had tears welling up in his eyes: “Xuyuan, congratulations, good child.”
Ning Lingyu squeezed forward, holding Luo Qiao’s hand, “Qiaoqiao, why didn’t you co to see when you returned to the Capital? Are you disowning us because of your aunt?”
Luo Qiao laughed, “Nonsense, she is her, and you are you. You and my brothers will always be family.”
Ning Hongda, hearing this, thought that Xueling might never receive the children’s forgiveness in her lifeti. She was being foolish!
He knew the kind of life his sister was leading because a man from the neighboring household of Ning Xueling worked at the sa place and would often et him in the canteen for lunch. He would always ask about her well-being.
Based on what that man said, he suspected she had enjoyed too much of the good life and had gone to the Wei Family to seek misery, bringing it upon herself.
The Luo’s elderly couple, seeing the Ning Family arrive, felt a bit uncomfortable but guests were guests, especially considering these were the uncles of the second household’s children. They could not be neglected.
They hurried over to welco them, “The uncles, aunties, co inside, please co in.”
