Chapter 371 Okay, Big Brother

Jiang Manyun smiled and introduced the two families: "Dad, this is Aunt Chen and her family who have always taken good care of us. Aunt Chen, Uncle Chen, this is my father-in-law, my third brother and his wife."

When Grandpa Gu arrived, the Chen family immediately became nervous, unsure of where to put their hands, and felt a strange sense of awe.

Chen Jianjun was so excited that he couldn't speak, his eyes filled with admiration and awe.

He instinctively stood at attention, his body ramrod straight, his face resolute, only his hands, pressed tightly against his trouser seams, trembled slightly, revealing his unsettled inner state.

Fortunately, Ma Xiulian and Chen Dazhu managed to keep up the atmosphere, smiling and saying, "Grandpa looks to be in great spirits!"

After all, their precious baby is a little dragon, they can't let her lose face!

Grandpa Gu laughed heartily and said cheerfully, "We're all from the same generation, not much different in age. You can just call me 'old brother'."

He learned from his grandson's letter that the baby was usually taken care of by his grandparents.

If someone can raise such a lovable child as Guabao, they must be quite good.

His smile softened his imposing aura, making him appear more approachable.

Seeing this, the Chen family members became a little less reserved.

Ma Xiulian wasn't one to mince words, and readily changed her tune, saying, "Alright, big brother!"

While the two elders were exchanging pleasantries, the younger generation was also sizing each other up.

When the Chen family saw that Gu Qingyun and his family of three were all dressed smartly and had an extraordinary air about them, and that both of them were wearing watches, they knew that they must be making a lot of money.

After all, he's a relative of Director Gu, and he's from the capital. How bad could he be?

Several women glanced at Song Wennuan's watch several times, feeling extremely envious.

The cheapest of these watches costs at least 100 yuan!

When the fourth brother was in the army, he earned the most salary in the family, but he still had to save up for several months' worth of wages to afford a watch, and that was the cheapest kind.

Gu Qingyun and Song Wenwen noticed that although the Chen family members were wearing old clothes, they were all clean and tidy, so their first impression was not bad.

Especially Chen Jianjun, whose eyes were clear and resolute, Gu Qingyun could tell at a glance that he had served in the army.

The elderly couple seemed to be reasonable, so they understood why the second brother and sister-in-law had associated with this family.

Song Wenwen was secretly amazed. This family didn't look fat or fair-skinned, and their appearance wasn't particularly outstanding. How did they raise such a chubby and beautiful little girl like Guaibao?

Seeing that the kitchen had started bringing out the dishes, Jiang Manyun called out, "The food is served, everyone please come and sit down."

Overwhelmed with emotion, Chen Jianjun could only watch helplessly as Grandpa Gu led the way inside, but he never had the courage to speak up, afraid that he wouldn't be able to utter a single word.

At the far end of the canteen are three large square tables made up of long tables joined together. Old Chen's family of about twenty people can easily fill two of them.

Apart from the elderly couple and their child sitting at one table with the Gu family, everyone else sat in two separate tables, otherwise they were afraid they wouldn't feel comfortable eating heartily.

After they sat down separately, the group finally relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

And they began to look forward to what dishes would be served.

Three people came out of the kitchen, each carrying a plate of braised fish, and served the dish to three different tables.

The braised fish, fresh out of the pot, was still steaming hot and had a wonderful aroma.

The group of people immediately stared intently at the braised fish on the table, their mouths watering at the aroma, wishing they could pick up their chopsticks and eat it right away!
