Chen Songbai said honestly, "Mom, I have to go home to eat. Qi Mei is waiting for me."
Liang Juying's smile vanished, her eyes welled up with tears, and she sighed, saying, "Then you should leave. Don't come back again."
I raised a son, and now he's become my daughter-in-law.
Chen Jianghu was extremely impressed with his son, and he was also very direct in his speech.
A stubborn idiot.
He knew that this fool wouldn't understand if he beat around the bush, so he said:
"Go and call your wife over. Let's have a meal together as a family."
Chen Songbai's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Seeing that his father didn't react, he looked at his mother.
Liang Juying glared at him and pouted, "I didn't say she couldn't come. Let her come if she wants."
Chen Songbai now understood what his parents meant.
"Okay, I'll go get Qi Mei right now."
He excitedly rushed out the door. Little Maodou was sitting in the yard playing when he saw him run out like lightning.
She pouted and looked at her grandfather, saying, "My third uncle won't play with me anymore."
Ever since his third uncle stopped living at home, he hasn't played with him anymore. He thought his third uncle had gone home, but it turns out he's gone again...
Chen Jianghu placed Xiao Maodou on his lap and comforted him, saying, "Your third uncle will be back soon, along with your third aunt."
"Third Aunt?"
"Okay, when I tell you to call for help, you have to call for help, understand?"
Little Maodou nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Little Maodou didn't know who his third aunt was, but when his third uncle arrived, his grandfather told him to greet him.
He then realized that "Third Aunt" was Qi Mei's older sister.
Chen Songbai told him, "From now on, don't call Qi Mei 'sister,' call her 'Third Aunt,' understand?"
"Okay, I understand, Third Aunt."
Qi Mei had always liked Xiao Maodou. When he called her, she quickly answered and even gave him a piece of candy.
The child was naturally happy and immediately asked his third uncle to open the candy for him to eat.
Finally, his mother said it was time to eat and the food had to be put away, and that's when the matter was dropped.
When Qi Mei saw Chen Jianghu and Liang Juying, she sincerely called out twice, "Father, Mother."
Chen Jianghu nodded: "Mm."
Liang Juying's eyes were red: "Yes, it's good that you're back."
Parents' hearts are always full of love and worry; how can parents possibly win against their children?
Although they didn't want Chen Songbai and Qi Mei to be together, now that they're married and living happily ever after, everyone who sees them says they're a match made in heaven.
Liang Juying gradually accepted it.
As a woman, she could understand Qi Mei's difficulties; she was getting old and didn't want to dwell on things anymore.
Qi Mei knew that this meant they had accepted her, and she happily took the cured duck and said, "I smoked this myself, and brought it over for an extra meal."
They are mountain people who love to store these things. Qi Mei is skilled at smoking cured meat and duck.
She also brought mushrooms that she had grown herself.
Liang Juying stewed the preserved duck and mushrooms together and served it on the table, saying to them:
"Qi Mei brought all of this. After this meal, we'll all be family."
The eldest and second eldest sons were both honest, and their wives both had their own agendas, but they didn't dare to disobey their elders, so they both agreed.
Little Maodou is too young to eat cured meat, so Qimei prepared some mushrooms for him.
The mushrooms soaked up the broth, and the edamame ate them happily.
"It's so good that Third Aunt is here."
Liang Juying pinched his cheek: "You're lucky you have something to eat."
Little Maodou, unaware that this was a joke, nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Auntie gave me something delicious. Hello, Auntie."
With a child to lighten the mood, the whole family enjoyed the meal.
The eldest and second sons' families were reunited because they ate meat, and the elderly couple were finally able to have their family together again.
Enjoy the happiness of family life.
After the meal, Qi Mei also told the elderly couple that she was pregnant.
The two elderly people were even happier.
The eldest child has only given birth to one, Maodou. The second child is still young and can only drink milk. Now Qimei is pregnant again.
The elderly love to have many children in the family, so they are even more satisfied with Qi Mei.
Liang Juying also warmly prepared a lot of food for her, even bringing out her treasured brown sugar.
Qi Mei was flattered and wanted to refuse, but looking at Liang Juying's sincere smile, she couldn't bear to.
The couple returned home carrying the heavy weight of their parents' love, and Qi Mei felt as if she were floating on clouds.
She said she never imagined that having a loving family member felt like this.
When they lived in the mountains, she and her sisters were slaves in the household.
I've always been the one doing the work.
She was only married into her ex-husband's family as a bride to bring him good luck, and her mother-in-law often tormented her.
It was only after she married Chen Songbai that she finally had a home of her own.
Now, they have been accepted by their in-laws.
Her mother-in-law was so good to her, giving her things like brown sugar and eggs.
Although she was thinking about the grandson in her belly, the benefits still fell on her.
Qi Mei doesn't dwell on things anymore; now she feels like she has a home and family.
Once the baby is born, their little family will consist of three people.
She could laugh out loud just thinking about it.
When Chen Songbai saw her suddenly smile, he asked her, "Honey, are you happy to see eggs and brown sugar? I'll make them for you when we get back."
Qi Mei nodded: "Yes, yes, I want to eat brown sugar eggs, please make them for me."
Chen Songbai naturally agreed.
He's going to be a father soon.
When the expectant father, Chen Songbai, got home, he immediately made brown sugar eggs for Qi Mei before leaving again with the finalized list.
All twenty people were extremely excited when they learned that they had passed.
