"Father, mother, you are here." Sun Bailian tried hard to force a smile when someone came to him. Seeing his mother's cold expression, he felt a little uncomfortable, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all, and said, "Father, mother, please come in quickly. The banquet has just started. Third uncle and fourth uncle are all inside."

Seeing that her husband brought people over, she thought that he had invited father and mother to come when he was not here just now. He didn't know what method her husband had to invite father and mother to come. Based on his understanding of his mother, it must have been difficult to invite people.

He thought that father and mother would not come, but he didn't expect that they would come. He was also very happy in his heart.

"Aru, let's go in. The third brother's family has built a big house now, which is also a happy thing." Sun Yancheng saw that his wife was unhappy. Knowing her stubborn temper, he hurriedly coaxed her to go inside.

The person with a cold face walked in, and never looked at the brother standing beside him.

Cao Gang reached out and took his wife's hand. The small hand in his palm was slightly cold, and he felt a little distressed.

Sun Bailian showed her husband a soothing smile, shook her head at him imperceptibly, and told her husband that he was fine. She pulled her hand out, walked to her father's side, and led her father and mother to sit there.

The dishes on the table had just been served, and the dishes were not finished yet. Everyone just sat down to eat.

"Yancheng, Aru, you are here, come and sit here."

"Just sit here, there is room for two more people, we just sat down."

When the people inside saw Sun Yancheng and Aru coming, they were all family members, and they hurriedly led them to their table. Many people present knew that Sun Bailian and his mother had a very good relationship, and when they saw his mother coming, they all enthusiastically helped Sun Bailian entertain his mother.

Sun Bailian, who was eating with a group of children at another table, also saw the two people coming. When he saw Sun Bailian standing there smiling, his eyes fell on his mother's cold face, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Seeing A Ning looking at him, he shook his head at him and said nothing.

Aning felt something strange in his heart. The child came here to play with his friends, and he didn't have to worry about eating. Seeing the child eating with big mouthfuls, he would put the dishes he liked into the child's bowl.

Qi Wanfeng lowered his head and said something to Kang Kang. Kang Kang's face was similar to his father's, and the child's silent eyes stared at that place without moving.

"Go, go to your mother." Qi Wanfeng patted Kang Kang on the back and urged him in a low voice.

Kang Kang stood up from his seat, got up his younger brother who still wanted to eat, and pulled him to his mother. Cao Gang noticed the child coming over, stretched out his hand to pull the child over, and patted his head.

"Dad, mother." The two children shouted in unison.

Sun Bailian saw two children approaching and asked them to shout, "Come here, Kang Kang, Grandpa, Grandma."

The two children stared at the two strangers and didn't call anyone, not even Kang Kang, who was usually sensible. Sun Bailian's face was a little embarrassed, and he said to his father and mother, "Father, mother, these are my two children. The older one is Cao Yikang, nicknamed Kang Kang, and the younger one is Cao Yijing, nicknamed Jingbao."

After he gave birth to two children, his father and mother never came to see the two children. When Kang Kang was born and the child was still young, he took the child back to his mother's house, and his mother closed the door in front of him. Later, he took the child to go a few times, but his mother didn't even let him in the door, and then he never took the child to go there again.

After having his second child, he went back to his mother's house less and less, and no one from there came to his house. It was not surprising that the two children were unfamiliar with their grandfather and grandmother, and Sun Bailian felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing that the children did not call for help, he could not blame them, but he looked a little embarrassed. When

the people at the same table saw A Ru's look, they also blamed him for being cruel as a grandmother. If it was his own brother who had made a fortune and took the initiative to make peace, they would have wanted to get close to him immediately, but A Ru was still putting on airs when she came.

"You are Kang Kang, right? This is Jing Bao? He looks so good." Sun Yancheng hurriedly tried to smooth things over, reaching out to pull the older boy into his arms, and he really liked these two grandchildren in his heart.

When the third brother insisted on marrying Cao Gang, he also disagreed, but he thought differently from his wife.

Some things had happened so many years ago, and he could let go of what he could let go of. Now their third brother's life is good. Among their three children, the third brother married in Caojia Village. If they get old, they still expect the third brother to support them. They are three boys, and the wife got sick after giving birth to the third brother, and she couldn't get pregnant anymore.

Kang Kang let people hold him, and he didn't struggle with a little face, but it was obvious that he didn't like it after all. Jing Bao hugged his mother's feet with both hands, for fear that the man would take him away too.

"Then, Dad and Mom, you guys eat first, everyone eat, I'll take the two kids over there and eat with them." Sun Bailian reached out and touched the second kid's head, reached out to take Kang Kang back, and the smile on her face was a little forced.

"Agang, Bailian, you guys sit down and eat together." "

Fourth uncle, you guys eat first, we'll be here soon."

A pair of eyes behind him silently stared at the person who left, then looked away, pursed his lips, and there was an extra piece of meat in the bowl. His husband whispered, "Eat." He picked up the chopsticks, lowered his head, and his eyes were a little wet.

Sun Bailian brought the two children to Qi Wanfeng. When he met Qi Wanfeng's eyes, he shook his head and said to the children, "You guys eat here obediently. Mom will be here soon, okay? Kang Kang, you look after brother."

Kang Kang nodded. He was already sensible enough. He could sensitively feel the emotions of adults and could feel who liked him and who didn't. He had never seen his grandparents come to see him since he was a child. Now that those two were his grandparents, he was unwilling to call them.

The younger Jingbao followed his brother. He would call when his brother called, and would not call when his brother didn't.

"Wanfeng, help me keep an eye on Jingbao, I'll go to the kitchen."

"Okay."

After enduring for a long time outside, Sun Bailian took a deep breath in the kitchen, suppressed the discomfort in her heart, and said to her husband with a smile, "Thank you."

"If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. What's the point of saying thank you or not between us? It's my duty to do something for you. I just want you to be happy." Cao Gang reached out and touched the corner of the mouth of the person who smiled at him with his thumb. He didn't like this person smiling at him like this.

He didn't know whether it was right or wrong for him to invite people over. Now he felt that it was better for people not to come.

"Yeah." Sun Bailian really laughed this time, knowing that her husband was really good to him.

Cao Xiangnan, who was still directing the serving of dishes in the kitchen, saw Cao Gang and Sun Bailian coming in, but he didn't notice anything. Seeing the two people coming into the kitchen again, he said, "There's nothing to do here, you can go out and eat."

"I'll see if there's anything I can help with." Sun Bailian felt a little embarrassed that Cao Xiangnan was the one who did everything for him during the banquet at his own home. "

Well, take these dishes out together, we'll serve them all, and those who come in a while can sit down and eat."

"Okay."

There was another table of people coming in from the back. When they saw that Cao Silang and Cao Gang were very polite to them, their identities and status were different now, and some things had also changed subtly. The remaining table was where Cao Xiangnan and his group, who were the last to finish, sat down to eat. They were all family members.

There were eight dishes on the table, five meats, three vegetables, and one soup. The portions were very generous. This was already a very good banquet. The children's mouths were full of oil, and the adults were also very satisfied. Everyone was hungry at this time, and almost all the dishes on the table were eaten.

People from the first few tables that sat down to eat got up one after another. After the children were full, they ran out to play. When it was time to go home, a few children who didn't want to go home were pulled away by their mother.

"Take your time, come and play when you have time."

"Okay, okay."

Cao Gang, who was still eating, also stood up from his seat and walked over to see the guests off with Sun Bailian.

"Father, mother, come often when you are free." Sun Bailian said as he sent his father and mother out.

"Okay, okay, you and Gang don't have to send them off. I and your mother will go back." Sun Yanshan said with a wave of his hand.

Seeing his father and mother leave, Sun Bailian blinked away the moisture in his eyes, and his heart felt like something was blocking it. Kang Kang noticed that his mother was unhappy, and looked at her seriously with a small face, calling out, "Mom."

"Mom, it's okay, go in." Sun Bailian pulled the two children in. After all, someone was coming, wasn't it? Cao

Gang followed his wife and children in, walked to Cao Xiangnan's place, and sat down in the seat he had just taken. Cao Xiangnan also met Cao Gang's mother-in-law. He sighed in his heart. She was much more difficult to deal with than he had imagined. He picked up the wine glass on the table and said without saying anything, "Come on, have a drink."

The two clinked their glasses and Cao Gang raised his head and drank it all.

There was still a faint red sun in the west, half hanging on the top of the mountain. The tables in the yard were already being cleared, and only their table was left.

Cao Xiangnan, Cao Gang, Cao Dapeng and others were still sitting there, eating and drinking slowly. "It's a pity that Sun Ji is not here. When Sun Ji comes back, we can sit down and have a good drink." He said.

I think Sun Ji will be back in half a month, and the batch of cotton-padded clothes will be ready by then. They will take the batch of cotton-padded clothes to Nanyang. Maybe he will also go to Nanyang to take a look.

"Okay." Cao Gang nodded, slowly drank the wine in the glass, his face calm.
