Once reborn, Su Jiaojiao returned to the year she was forced into marriage. This time, she no longer escapes; she calls off the engagement, fights against scoundrels, earns money herself when broke...
Chapter 567: Second Uncle and His Family Arrive
Around May Day, many neighbors moved into Lakeside Villa one after another, and the community suddenly became lively.
There were originally only two supermarkets, but several more appeared in just a few days. In addition, the large children's playground in the community was officially opened on Children's Day, attracting many parents from the surrounding area to bring their children to play.
After Lu Chengyi got familiar with Chen Guilan and Song Na, he was no longer as clingy to Su Jiaojiao as before. He became easier and easier to take care of, spending more and more time at home and rarely going to the company with her.
Chen Guilan said that the RV was just sitting idle and accused them of wasting money. Su Jiaojiao didn't think it was a waste of money and said that it was still necessary for them to return to their hometown in the future.
"Why go back to my hometown? Apart from your second uncle and his family, I have nothing to worry about." Chen Guilan now thinks of those things and people in her hometown, and they seem so far away. Sometimes when she thinks about it, she can hardly believe that she really experienced such an unbearable past.
"Mom, do you miss my second uncle and the others?" Su Jiaojiao had already called Chen Juan and invited them to stay in the capital for a few days. Chen Juan said that Xiao Suisui could come over after her summer vacation.
"They are all doing well, so I feel relieved." Chen Guilan often talks to Chen Guisheng and others on the phone. Xu Yue'e's condition has been stable, Xiao Suisui is in the first grade of elementary school, Chen Juan still runs a garment factory in the village, Zhao Shunfa and Chen Guisheng farm when they are busy and go to sea when they are free, and they live a fulfilling life.
They are too far apart, so how can they meet each other whenever they want? Besides, they have their own things to do.
"Mom, I asked Sister Juan, and they said that Xiao Suisui will come to see us after summer vacation." Su Jiaojiao understood Chen Guilan. No matter how good the living conditions here were, she still needed to slowly integrate into the family. Her mother had done so much for her, so she also had to consider her mother and make her mother happier.
"So, they're coming next month?" Chen Guilan was very surprised. "Your second uncle didn't tell me about this. I guess you guys are hiding it from me."
"I'm not hiding it from you. I'm just worried you'd be anxious." Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "They just decided to come yesterday. It's not too late for me to tell you now. There's still a month, plenty of time for you to clean up the room."
"Your second uncle's knees aren't very good, so climbing stairs isn't an option for him. Just let them stay on the first floor." Chen Guilan was very excited when she heard this. "I'll prepare a room for them tomorrow. I know their preferences."
Since they moved in, Mr. and Mrs. Lu, Lu Jia and Lin Manli only came once, had a meal and left, without staying overnight.
They didn't even stay in the room originally reserved for them.
This time, Chen Guisheng and his family happened to live on the first floor, which made it convenient for them to go in and out.
Lu Jingyou was also very willing to have Chen Guisheng and his family stay at Lakeside Villa for a while, considering that Qingyuan Airport was far from Jiao County and they had to take a bus to Guomao, and then they had to transfer to another bus to go home.
Lu Jingyou decided to let Wang Hua drive the RV to Jiao County to pick them up. Wang Hua and Zhao Shunfa took turns driving and they arrived in one day.
Wang Hua drove the RV into Wutong Village, attracting a lot of onlookers. The village had seen small cars in the past two years, but this was the first time they had seen such a large car.
Especially the car that came with a bed and a sofa. Amidst the envious gazes of everyone, Chen Guisheng and his family got on the RV and happily went to the imperial capital.
The news that Su Jiaojiao got married and had children in the imperial capital gradually spread and soon spread throughout the village.
Xu Yuxiang felt very uncomfortable after hearing this.
It was obviously the Su family who should have taken the RV to the capital to see Su Jiaojiao, but who knew that the Chen family would steal the limelight. The people of the Chen family are too shameless.
For this reason, she even called Su Houli and said, "You raised this daughter for the Chen family. Look, Chen Guilan brought the Chen family to the capital to enjoy a good life, but she never mentioned our family."
"Mom, they're deliberately distancing themselves from us. They didn't even let us go to their engagement and wedding. It's clear they don't want to have anything to do with us anymore." Su Houli was already disheartened. "I heard a long time ago that Jiaojiao gave birth to a son and moved into a big villa, and Chen Guilan is enjoying the good life with them."
The mother and daughter deliberately ignored him and did not take him seriously.
Chen Guilan looks like an honest person, but in fact she is scheming. Not only did she occupy the houses in the village, she also occupied the family's land, leaving him with no benefits at all.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and he wanted to go to the capital to confront her.
"Why should Chen Guilan enjoy the good life while you don't?" Xu Yuxiang became more and more unwilling to accept it. "You are Jiaojiao's father. She can't just ignore you. Go to the capital and find her. Tell her in person that she will take care of you in your old age."
"Mom, don't tell me about this kind of thing in the future." Su Houli hung up the phone angrily.
Chen Guilan and her daughter ignored him, Gao Meifeng was also sarcastic about him, saying that he was picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons, and that he brought it upon himself. Xue Yuxin was even more indifferent to him, saying that she was not his biological daughter and that he didn't care about her.
None of his efforts were rewarded, and he had had enough.
From then on, he thought about nothing else except work.
The person who was most happy about the arrival of Chen Guisheng's family was Chen Guilan. She couldn't wait to share everything about her life in the capital with her family, and took them for a walk in the community and to see Moon Lake.
Lu Jingyou and Su Jiaojiao also rested for several days, eating, playing and chatting together.
Su Jiaojiao and Chen Juan also have many common topics because of their children. The two sisters have been chatting since they were young and have continued to chat until now, and they have endless things to talk about every day.
Lu Jingyou and Zhao Shunfa were no strangers to each other. Men communicate differently from women. After staying at home for a few days, Lu Jingyou took Zhao Shunfa to visit the project department of the film and television city, and also made an appointment with Qi Heng and He Siyu to have a drink together.
Chen Guilan also accompanied Chen Guisheng and Xu Yue'e all day long. Xiao Suisui was in the first grade and was an elementary school student. She did not need special care from adults. She ran up and down the stairs and found everything new to her.
Chen Guisheng and Xu Yue'e both praised the house, saying that with so many people living upstairs and downstairs, especially with someone at home who cooks and takes care of the children, it was just like the life on TV.
Who would have thought that Chen Guilan and Su Jiaojiao would live such a life? How much they suffered in the past, how much happiness they enjoy now.
Chen Guisheng and Xu Yue'e were both happy for the mother and daughter. After living there for a few days, they couldn't stay idle, so they asked Lu Jingyou to go to the supermarket to buy a hoe and rapeseed, and started to plant vegetables in the open space in the backyard.
Su Jiaojiao and Chen Guilan were both happy.
A diligent person is diligent wherever he goes. My second uncle's family started working after only living there for three or four days. Zhao Shunfa also divided the vegetable garden into several pieces with cement, saying that they would not have to worry about the garden being flooded on rainy days in the future, and it would also be convenient to pick vegetables.
Lu Jingyou also joined in with great interest, busy mixing cement, following Zhao Shunfa to learn how to use cement to plaster the ground, and by the way, asked Zhao Shunfa to help him build a mobile fish pond in the front yard.
This attracted Qi Heng and He Siyu to come over and see it. They said that if it looked good, they would go back and make one too.
