Speaking of Mu Xianglan, actually, when Mu Yuanhe, Qu Wenting and Mu Chenlan returned to Beijing in the winter of the year before last, they could have followed them back, but Mu Xianglan had already married a local young man at that time. At that time, Mu Xianglan's in-laws did not stop Mu Xianglan and her husband from returning to Beijing with the Mu family, but the policy had changed at that time. Being in the south, Mu Xianglan and her husband Hu Jianguo decided to go directly to Guangdong Province to do business, so Mu Xianglan did not choose to return to Beijing.
In fact, Sun Yuqi often heard her aunt and grandmother talking about Mu Xianglan and his wife recently. Now Mu Xianglan and his wife are running a small business in a coastal city in Guangdong Province. I heard that they are doing well. Their son is five years old and is in his hometown in the southwest, being taken care of by his grandparents.
Mu Xianglan waited for Sun Yuqi to finish washing up before he walked out with the basin of water. As he left the house, he exclaimed softly, "It's snowing."
When Sun Yuqi heard Mu Xianglan's call, she also walked to the door and looked out. She saw goose feather-like snowflakes falling down. Many people were walking back and forth in the yard. The ground was already a little white. It seemed that it started snowing while she was washing up.
Reaching out her hand to catch the falling snowflakes, Sun Yuqi's lips curled slightly as she watched the snowflakes instantly turn into drops of water in her palm.
"Sister, have my brother and the others gone out to pick up the bride?"
Mu Xianglan put down the basin in his hand. "That's right. We've been walking for half an hour. You must be hungry. I'll bring you something to eat. Just stay inside. Don't come out. It just snowed and the roads are slippery."
Sun Yuqi stood obediently at the door. Snow was really no surprise to her as she had spent two years in Northeast China. During those two years, it snowed heavily there and she had to climb onto the roof to sweep the snow from time to time. It was not an easy job, so Sun Yuqi didn't like snow very much.
After dinner, Sun Yuqi slowly came to the main hall. No matter what, Sun Yuqi still needed to show up. It was impossible for her husband's cousin to get married while Sun Yuqi, as his sister-in-law, stayed in the house and didn't come out. As soon as she walked into the main hall, she heard her elder sister-in-law Mu Xianglan say angrily.
"You said you wanted to come over and called me, but you came over like this. You're due in over a month, so you have to be careful."
Sun Yuqi smiled and took Mu Xianglan's hand.
"My sister has been busy since early morning. I can't help her, but I can't make things worse! Besides, even though it's snowing, I'll just walk slower."
Grandma Mu, who was entertaining guests, said with a smile.
"Okay, both of you hurry up and sit down! Yuqi, did you have a good rest last night? I was thinking that we started working in the middle of the night, and with so many people coming and going, I was afraid that it would disturb your rest."
Sun Yuqi knew that Grandma Mu was worried and hurried to comfort her.
"Don't worry, grandma. I had a good rest last night. Look, I slept until dawn."
The neighbor next door said with a smile.
"Old Mu, you two are so lucky! Your grandson's wife is about to give birth, and your eldest grandson got married today. I guess you'll have a great-grandson by the end of the year!"
Grandpa Mu and Grandma Mu liked to hear this from their neighbor the most. When they heard the old neighbor say this, they immediately smiled and hurriedly complimented the neighbor. Sun Yuqi and Mu Xianglan, who were sitting next to them, smiled at each other. It is estimated that the elderly nowadays like to hear congratulations on having a large family.
It was past nine in the morning and Sun Yuqi felt a little tired. Her belly had grown bigger recently and she was approaching delivery, so she often felt tired. So Sun Yuqi sat for a while and then returned to her room accompanied by Mu Xianglan.
At about ten o'clock, Sun Yuqi heard a commotion coming from the yard. She knew that the bride must be being welcomed back. She hurriedly got up with the help of Mu Xianglan, walked to the door and looked outside. She just saw Mu Chenlan and the bride Qin Xiuzhi in a red dress walking into the yard surrounded by a crowd.
Although Sun Yuqi was very curious about other people's wedding scenes, she was pregnant, so for safety reasons she could only stay in her room. Standing at the door and looking, she saw that the room was full of people surrounding the main hall, and she couldn't see what the scene was like inside.
The noise in the main room lasted for more than half an hour before it died down. Sun Yuqi, supported by Mu Xianglan, returned to the bed and sat down. After a while, Mu Jingran walked in with a cold look on his face. Just as he was getting close to Sun Yuqi, he was pushed away by Mu Xianglan.
"Look at you, you're so old, but you're still so ignorant. You're so cold and yet you're trying to get close to Yuqi. Are you looking for a fight?"
Mu Jingran then realized that he had been stupid again and apologized with a smile.
"I'm teaching you that it was my brother who made the mistake. I will definitely change next time."
Mu Xianglan rolled her eyes at him and walked towards the door. "It's almost time! We still have to go to the restaurant! I have to go over and take a look. Don't waste time. Many guests have already left for the restaurant."
Looking at the figure hurriedly walking out the door, Sun Yuqi smiled at Mu Jingran.
"I didn't expect you to be so honest in front of me?"
Mu Jingran smiled awkwardly, touched his nose, and then said.
"I was beaten up by my elder sister many times when I was little, so I get nervous whenever I see her."
After hearing Mu Jingran's words, Sun Yuqi burst out laughing.
It was the first time she heard that Mu Jingran was afraid of his cousin, so she asked curiously. In order to please his wife, Mu Jingran told her some stories about his childhood. Sun Yuqi almost laughed to death. She really didn't expect that Mu Jingran was also very naughty when he was a child, and he was raised by his sister Mu Xianglan since he was a child.
Sun Yuqi heard that although Mu Jingran was complaining about his sister's punishment of him when he was a child, Sun Yuqi could hear from his words that he respected his sister. It turned out that Mu Jingran and Mu Xianglan were only two years apart in age. Because the eldest brother Mu Chenlan was much older than Mu Jingran, he didn't take care of Mu Jingran when he was a child. It was Mu Xianglan who took care of Mu Jingran, so the relationship between them was very deep.
It was almost eleven o'clock when Mu Jingran went out and told me when he came back.
"Hurry up and pack up, we need to go to the restaurant. Grandpa and grandma have already started to get ready. Don't worry, we will take a car there later. Son, the snow is getting heavier now."
Sun Yuqi knew that they had to go to the restaurant and had actually packed everything long ago, so after waiting for just over ten minutes, Mu Jingran took Sun Yuqi out of the house. They just went out with her grandparents and got in the car and drove towards the restaurant.
