Chapter 546: Chapter 546: Satisfied Just by Seeing You Chapter 546: Chapter 546: Satisfied Just by Seeing You Luo Qiao asked, “Then why are you standing here?”
Lu Yichen smiled and said, “I had called earlier and knew you were out today, so I’ve been waiting here the whole ti.”
Luo Qiao thought to herself that only soone in love would do sothing like this. On such a cold day, even Uncle Sun’s doorstep had no one hanging around for a chat, only this fool was persistently waiting here, which ward her heart.
Luo Qiao said, “Won’t you co in and sit for a while?”
Lu Yichen laughed, “Today is New Year’s Eve; I won’t co in and disturb you all. Just seeing you is enough for , I’ll carry the stuff to the gate and leave.”
As he was speaking, he took a large package out of the trunk. Luo Qiao noticed that the package hadn’t even been opened yet. She couldn’t selfishly keep it all to herself.
She asked, “Do you have a bag in the car? Take so back for your family to try. I can’t take it all back with .”
Lu Yichen found a kraft paper bag in the trunk, and after Luo Qiao poured out a small portion, Lu Yichen wouldn’t let her pour out any more.
Luo Qiao left one of the roast ducks for him and said, “You don’t need to walk to the gate. It’s not very heavy. Better hurry ho, and just call tonight.”
Lu Yichen smiled, “Alright, I’ll call you at ten tonight. Wear more clothes later; it’s unpredictable, it might start snowing.”
Lu Yichen had wanted to watch Luo Qiao go inside before leaving, but Luo Qiao insisted on seeing him leave first. With no other choice, he had to get in the car and drive away.
Luo Qiao thought, she had to let him leave first, otherwise how would she continue to take stuff out? Watching his car disappear in the distance, Luo Qiao then turned back and entered the alley.
As it was the New Year, delicious food was prepared at ho, and because the weather was extrely cold, there weren’t many people out and about at this ti. Luo Qiao entered the alley, and at a turn by a coal bin, she took out the things she had prepared ahead of ti.
With so many items stored in that space and her not often in Capital City, she had to make good use of her days in Capital City to provide well for her family, after all, her family had been really good to her.
Carrying the items to her ho’s entrance, she shouted into the courtyard, “Soone co out and help with these.”
Stone was the first to rush out, “Sister, you’re back. Is it cold?”
Luo Qiao smiled, “It’s fine. Stone, go call soone to help your sister with the things.”
She had barely finished speaking when several older brothers and male cousins ca over and took the items inside without a word.
Zhou Guifang had now grown accustod to her granddaughter bringing things ho occasionally and knew that Luo Qiao had a sense of asure. A child being filial was always sothing to appreciate.
As usual, Luo Qiao took over and made several main dishes for today’s New Year’s Eve dinner. After three rounds of drinks at the table, her elder uncle Luo Haoxuan said, “After the Chinese New Year, Jialin’s wedding proceedings will officially take place, and the wedding date won’t be too far away after that.”
Everyone congratulated their cousin, whose face turned red from the teasing.
Auntie Song Shiya said, “Once the engagent date is set, I will inform everyone in advance. At that ti, we all must go and show our support for Jialin.”
Gu Hongjuan said, “That’s for sure. Our family only has three girls, each one precious. By that ti, we definitely won’t let Jialin lose face.”
Zhou Guifang said, “Ti really flies. It feels like just yesterday when Jialin was a little girl asking for candies. In a few months, she’ll be getting married. Grandma really doesn’t want to part with our Jialin.”
Song Shiya’s eyes reddened, “The groom’s family has good values, and Jialin’s fiancé’s workplace will be allocating housing soon. They might not get anything too big, but his na is on the list.”
“Even though the groom’s family has several sons, it won’t be long after their marriage before they can live independently. With our support, their life should not be too tough.”
Luo Daoren said, “The dowry shouldn’t be modest. Take all the bride price with you, and your grandmother and I will give you an extra hundred as a contribution to your trousseau. Jialin, buy anything you like ahead of ti.”
Luo Jialin quickly said, “Grandpa, you and Grandma don’t need to chip in. I haven’t even properly taken care of you yet; how can I spend your money.”
