Chapter 440 Loyalty
There were no seats set up in the square, so everyone brought their own small stools to watch the puppet show.
When Bai Lu went out, she wasn't sure how long she would stay, so she didn't bring anything. Xiao Wei and Yu Xiaoling didn't bring anything either. Everyone sat on long benches that the neighbors in the square had brought out in advance.
I heard that Bai Lu would be coming to see the puppet show, so I specially brought out a seat for her. I didn't expect that Xiao Cheng, the aloof big boss who usually doesn't like to go into crowds, would also come out.
I sat on a long bench with Bailu to watch a puppet show.
The neighbors thoroughly enjoyed watching the two performances.
The extended family members thoroughly enjoyed gossiping about the down-to-earth boss couple.
Xiao Wei had already given up the best spot next to his sister-in-law to his older brother and went to sit on a long bench with Yu Xiaoling.
Yu Xiaoling lowered her head, seemingly texting someone, a pink smile spreading across her round face.
Xiao Wei had seen this smile before; it was during the time leading up to the college entrance examination last year when Bai Lu's smile was incredibly sweet.
The eldest brother would always secretly raise the corners of his mouth.
The whole house is filled with pink bubbles.
"Why aren't you playing cards anymore?" Bai Lu asked, watching the puppet show while eating the salted peanuts that Xiao Cheng had peeled.
She asked him curiously.
What she really wanted to ask was, "Did the brothers win all their red envelopes so quickly?"
Obviously not. Xiao Cheng said calmly, without any expression, "Chen Chunli has brought the child."
Chen Chunli is obsessed with money. She's fine if Wang Hao wins, but she definitely won't agree if he loses.
I suspect they'll try to sabotage things in a roundabout way again.
She was holding her child, and the group of men couldn't say anything harsh to her, let alone do anything to her.
During the Lunar New Year, if you don't want bad luck, you can only disperse.
Bai Lu guessed correctly. As soon as Li Jianfeng, Luo Shiliu, and Xiao Dazhuang arrived at the square, they immediately started complaining.
After she, Xiao Wei, and Yu Xiaoling went out, they played a few rounds of poker before switching to Texas Hold'em.
Chen Chunli also arrived with her child around that time.
In Texas Hold'em, betting and calling are more frequent than in poker, resulting in both higher wins and losses.
Chen Chunli was unhappy to see Wang Hao lose, so she held her child and openly watched the other people at the table play cards.
Li Jianfeng wouldn't let me see it, Luo Shiliu wouldn't let me see it, and Xiao Dazhuang wouldn't let me see it either.
Yes, that's right.
They are so hypocritical.
He wouldn't let anyone except his sister-in-law see the cards.
Chen Chunli became unhappy when she couldn't see the cards. She held the child and walked around, speaking sarcastically to Wang Hao. Her words made the child cry, but she didn't comfort him.
The sound of the child crying echoed throughout the octagonal pavilion, the entire courtyard, and the whole villa.
Wang Hao had to stop trading and bring his child over to comfort him, so as not to spoil everyone's fun.
Although it has already been scanned.
Everyone gave each other face and played one last round before disbanding.
After the guys finished complaining, Bai Lu comforted them and they finally calmed down.
Li Jianfeng waved his little hand and went to the river to fry fish. Bai Lu promised to make him fried small fish for dinner.
The bones are crispy and crunchy; he's going to fry up all the little fish in the river...
Luo Shiliu and Xiao Dazhuang didn't like watching puppet shows, so they left after watching for a while.
After buying sunflower seeds, I focused on eating them.
Bai Lu glanced at Xiao Dazhuang, who was staring intently at the puppet show but couldn't make heads or tails of it.
He asked casually, "Dazhuang, did you send Yaoyao a New Year's greeting?"
Xiao Dazhuang looked puzzled: "Do we send New Year's greetings? How do we send them?"
Bai Lu smiled: "Send a text message!"
"It's perfectly normal for friends to send each other New Year's greetings via text message."
Xiao Dazhuang understood, and then looked at Xiao Cheng and said, "I didn't send Brother Cheng a New Year's greeting."
Xiao Cheng had white dew on his shoulders and looked at Xiao Dazhuang with disdain: "I don't need you to send it."
Xiao Dazhuang turned his head.
Luo Shiliu stuffed a handful of sunflower seeds into his mouth: "I don't need you to give me any."
The sunflower seeds were still unshelled, and Dazhuang crunched them loudly. Finally, he looked at Bailu and said, "Sister-in-law..."
"Sister-in-law thinks you can send it to Yao Yao."
Bai Lu smiled warmly: "Yao Yao lives in Bo City. When you send her a New Year's greeting, she can feel the care from her friend even from a great distance."
"She's spending the New Year at home with her parents, so why does she need her friends' concern?" Xiao Dazhuang asked, puzzled.
Xiao Cheng's arm was pinched, and he glanced at him coldly: "Just send it when I tell you to, stop talking so much nonsense."
"Oh, okay." Xiao Dazhuang was used to obeying his older brother's orders, so he obediently took out his phone.
Carefully edit and send New Year's greetings.
Bai Lu loosened her grip and instead hugged Xiao Cheng's arm, leaning on his shoulder to eat melon seeds.
In his previous life, compared to Wang Hao's indecisiveness, Xiao Dazhuang's loyalty to Xiao Cheng remained unchanged until death.
Xiao Dazhuang was just like the famous general Zhang Fei, loyal to Liu Bei and never betraying his elder brother.
From the day he joined Xiao Cheng, through fire and water, through gunfire and bullets, Xiao Dazhuang remained loyal for thirty years.
Even his final fate was to die fighting for his elder brother.
In his final memory, Xiao Cheng, wearing a white chrysanthemum on his chest, walks through the darkness to avenge his brother Xiao Dazhuang, who was murdered by business rivals and whose body was never recovered.
Xiao Dazhuang died because of Xiao Cheng in his previous life and didn't have a good ending. In this life, he should repay him.
When fate arrives, waiting passively is futile; going with the flow is the greatest respect for fate.
Seize the precious moments and strive to become better together; that is how we live up to our youth and our prime.
"Sixteen, do you have a girl you like?"
Luo Shiliu was almost choked to death by Bai Lu's sudden, unannounced greeting.
He coughed for a while before finally swallowing the sunflower seed shells, a nonchalant, roguish smile appearing on his twitching lips.
"Sister-in-law, are you kidding me? This kind of thing is obviously more suitable for Dazhuang!"
Bai Lu smiled and said, "A girl like you would be suitable for Da Zhuang as well. You're handsome and rich. Wouldn't it be better to settle down and build a career at the same time?"
The moment the words "You're handsome and rich" were uttered, Luo Shiliu was buried under a ton of cold knives.
"Sister-in-law, you're pushing me into a fire pit! I know I'm very handsome, dashing, charming, elegant, and debonair... I've made quite a bit of money with you and Brother Cheng this year, I'm a rich young master now."
"But I just want to enjoy the gossip, not the hate mail. You'd better get your taste back to Cheng Ge!"
Bai Lu's aesthetic judgment was spot on; Xiao Cheng's unparalleled beauty and divine looks were unmatched.
While other people's peach blossoms bloom one by one, Xiao Cheng's peach blossoms bloom on entire trees, and they even bloom from his past life to this life. Even the God of Love can't catch up with him.
Although there are outstanding examples before him, even the most beautiful jade will pale in comparison, but Luo Shiliu doesn't follow the usual path!
His roguish charm, the mischievous smile that curled at the corners of his mouth, and the captivating allure of his narrow eyes when he blinked—all of these made girls swoon.
Forget about dating; as long as Luo Shiliu asks, a long line of brides will be waiting for him to marry them, even without any dowry.
But this guy only flirts without taking responsibility; in modern terms, he's all about flirting and no commitment.
He doesn't date girls, nor does he string them along; he can win someone's heart with a single glance and then leave.
Three thousand young girls are left with only youthful dreams.
