Soon the food was served, and since it was all family, there was no separate table; the whole family sat together around the table.
As for the younger children, Lin Jiujiu specially prepared a small table for them, with dishes suitable for children on it.
Liang Hua was already seven years old, which would be considered the eldest son in ancient times. Lin Jiujiu originally wanted to call him to the table for adults.
The little guy glanced at it, his eyes darted around, and finally, he quietly sat down next to the little bean.
He smiled sweetly at her.
"Second Aunt, I'd better sit at the same table as Brother Chen, so I can take care of my sister."
Lin Jiujiu was amused by him; if she hadn't just seen his bright, darting eyes, she would have almost believed him.
The little guy clearly felt uncomfortable because there were too many people at their table, especially since they were elders.
However, it's clear that Liang Hua is a smart kid.
If she is properly nurtured, her eldest sister might be able to enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren in the future.
Thinking this way, Lin Jiujiu didn't insist and nodded to him.
"Then I'll leave the little ones in your care."
Then he went back to the adults' table.
Only three children and a dog were left behind.
Liang Yu saw Xiao Douding pick up a little white dog and put it on the table, and even put food on its plate. The dog ate very politely, unlike other puppies that would shake their heads after taking a bite and drool everywhere.
Moreover, it only needs to glance at what it wants to eat, and then the little bean will pick it up and put it in its special little bowl. It will eat meat and spit out bones.
The little girl was fascinated and reached out to touch it, but Xiaobai nimbly dodged her.
Although it is a dog, or rather a fox, it doesn't let just anyone touch it.
As for the Lin family, they had no choice but to submit to her tyranny, since they couldn't beat her.
This little blonde girl, who seems to have appeared out of nowhere, wants to pet it? She's dreaming! Especially since it's eating, she can forget about it.
If it weren't for the fact that she's related to Little Bean, she would be terrified if she dared to disturb Grandpa Bai's meal.
Liang Yu watched as Xiao Bai dodged her hand, a look of disappointment flashing in her eyes, her little mouth pouting, as if she wanted to cry.
But the little girl was quite sensible; tears welled up in her eyes, but she didn't let them fall.
Seeing his little cousin, who was about the same age as him, in this state, the little boy quickly took out his handkerchief to wipe away her tears.
Then, she spoke to Xiaobai in a very polite tone.
"Xiaobai, can you let Xiaoyu touch you? I'll tell her I won't hurt you."
Little White rolled its eyes, thinking to itself that a little girl like her could hardly exert any strength, yet she had actually managed to hurt it.
It doesn't allow being touched simply because it doesn't like being touched by others.
Although it doesn't use a human body, it has human thoughts. What normal person would let someone touch them all the time?
But Xiaobai couldn't say it in front of so many people.
Its fur grows quickly; the fur that was shaved off has already grown back. Although it's not as fluffy as before, it's short and stands up, making it look round and cute.
After listening to Xiaodouding's words and glancing at the little girl who was trying her best to hold back her tears, Xiaobai finally relented and accepted her fate.
She jumped into Xiao Tou's arms and nuzzled against her with her head, which was almost as big as her body.
The little girl grinned as she looked at Xiaobai, who had thrown himself into her arms. However, the tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally spilled down her cheeks.
However, this was different from the tears of grievance she had shed just now; this time she was happy.
Liang Hua looked at his younger sister and gently shook his head.
Thinking to myself, kids really are kids, they just like this kind of thing.
However, despite what he was thinking, he still took advantage of everyone's inattention to give Xiaobai's big head a quick pat.
Then, pretending to be indifferent, he continued eating.
Lin Jiujiu took in the situation with the little ones and smiled silently.
It seems the little ones are getting along well, and the older sister's two children are also very well-behaved.
If we live together from now on, I won't worry about conflicts between the children.
She heard her older sister say "I do" very clearly just now; all she needs to do now is get the Liang family's approval.
At worst, her brother-in-law could go back and say that her father had found them a job, and he would pay a few hundred coins a month in wages. That way, they shouldn't have any complaints.
After all, their children and grandchildren would be raised by others, and they could also get money back. Unless the Liang family members were mentally unstable, they should all agree.
Thinking this, Lin Jiujiu stopped paying attention to that side and focused on eating.
Originally, she wanted to set up a separate table so that Baili Chenyuan and Tantai Yueming could eat in the study.
After all, they weren't familiar with these family members, and forcing them to get together would make everyone uncomfortable.
Little did she expect that Baili Chenyuan, who always had a stern face as if someone owed him money, would become a completely different person at her home.
He kept calling them "grandfather" and "grandmother," which made the two elders very happy.
In the end, her maternal grandfather pulled her to sit down next to him, and she couldn't even ask him to leave.
Without her second aunt's muddle-headed interference, the meal was a delightful one for both host and guests.
Lin Jiujiu originally wanted her maternal grandparents to stay for a few days.
My aunt also tried to persuade them, but the two elderly people were determined to leave.
Fearing that her daughter would be upset, Grandma Qiao patted her hand and said.
“Family matters still need to be dealt with. After we sort out the family affairs, your father and I will come and stay with you for a few days. Then you will feel at ease staying here.”
Lin's mother wanted to say something more, but Lin Jiujiu quietly tugged at her from behind, and Lin's mother ultimately didn't say anything more.
The oxcart that the Qiao family brought was driven away by Qiao's second uncle when he returned.
Mr. Lin hitched up his own car and drove his father-in-law, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law's family back home.
After seeing off her maternal grandfather's family, Lin's mother turned around, her face showing some distress.
But he still looked at Lin Jiujiu and asked.
"Jiujiu, don't you want your maternal grandfather and the others to live here?"
Lin Jiujiu knew that her mother had misunderstood.
Lin Jiujiu wasn't one of those talkative protagonists on TV; she didn't get angry at her mother's behavior.
He helped the person back into the house, laughing as he did so.
“Mom, what are you thinking? Not only can I ask Grandfather and the others to stay for a while, but I also have no objection to you bringing them here to live out their old age.”
She wasn't familiar with her maternal grandparents, didn't know what kind of people they were, and naturally couldn't say whether she liked or disliked them.
But in the end, they are Lin's mother's parents, and Lin Jiujiu will not find it difficult to fulfill her filial duties.
If they get along well, it would be even better if everyone could live happily together. If they can't, she can simply bring the little one to live in her own yard.
It really didn't affect her much.
Thinking this way, Lin Jiujiu said it as well.
“Mother, not only will I not stop you from taking in your maternal grandparents, but I also plan to talk to my sister-in-law about it. Aunt Hu is getting old and her health is not good. It is inconvenient for her to live alone.”
"My brother's yard isn't small either. If Aunt Hu doesn't mind, she can definitely live with them."
