Among all those voices, the voice of Xiao Yu'er acting like a spoiled child to her grandfather stood out the most. Mrs. Luo laughed dumbly and said, "Xiao Yu'er is still young, so she can be as noisy as she wants. When she grows up, she must be sent to her mother and disciplined. Otherwise, if she continues to be spoiled like this, it will be difficult for her to find a husband."
Wang smiled and said, "Xiao Yu'er has a good family background, good looks, and is smart. When the time comes, she will be sought after by hundreds of families."
At noon, Wang cooked herself and fried some green pepper and bean curd, some sweet corn, some stir-fried mushrooms, and some scrambled eggs with chives. She smiled at Luo Yun and said, "I only know how to cook farm-style dishes, don't look down on me, Sister Luo."
Luo Yun smiled and said, "Sister Wang, you are too polite. I think it smells really good."
As soon as the food was placed on the table, Yu Ge'er and Xiao Yu'er came, clamoring to eat with grandma and grandma. The maid who came with them also brought a dish and a soup, pine tree monkey head mushroom and Longjing bamboo fungus, saying that the old man asked for more dishes.
Luo Yun and Wang were overjoyed and quickly carried the little brother and sister onto the kang.
After dinner, Luo Yun took the brother and sister back to Tangyuan for lunch.
The gate of Fuyuan was still open, and Yu Ge'er shouted to Chu Guangche who was standing in the yard, "Grandpa, grandma and I are going to Tangyuan to rest for a while."
Chu Guangche walked out the door and smiled to Luo Yun, "Mother-in-law has returned to Tang Garden." He then said to Yu Ge'er, "Don't be naughty and don't tire grandma out."
Xiao Yuer quickly expressed her opinion, "Xiao Yuer, be good and don't tire grandma out."
Yu Ge'er agreed, and was led forward by Luo Yun, who lowered his head. After walking for a while, Yu Ge'er complained, "Grandpa cares about grandma, why does he always talk about Yu Ge'er?"
Luo Yun didn't say anything. Xiao Yu'er giggled and said, "Brother, you don't have Xiao Yu'er and grandma to ask grandpa to be adored."
Luo Yun blushed and said angrily, "Xiao Yu'er, don't talk nonsense."
Yu Ge'er pursed his lips and said generously, "Brother is a boy, I won't be jealous of you."
In the blink of an eye, it was August 15th. Wang came to Tangyuan early in the morning and said that she would like to invite Old Lady Luo and Luo Yun to have dinner at Luyuan, and also invited Old Master Chu, Yu Ge'er and Xiao Yu'er.
Old Lady Luo happily accepted the invitation and said with a smile, "Even though I am not feeling well, I love visiting other people's homes the most."
Wang went home with a smile and led people to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner.
The Luyuan dinner party was suggested by the old Marquis Chu to Chen Ming and Wang. He said that this was the first Mid-Autumn Festival after Luo Yun returned to secular life, and he wanted her to have some fun. As for her not wanting to see him, he would not go. He also had people send over a lot of food for the vegetarian feast, and asked two cooks to help. He also hinted in a shy way that Luo Yun was particular about the dishes and bowls, and wanted to use good ones.
Chen Ming and Wang were of course very willing to do so. They also hoped that Luo Yun could get over his emotional issues and reconcile with old Marquis Chu. This was what their daughter's family was always thinking about.
Wang once said to Chen Ming privately, "Maybe Sister Luo has read too many books, so she thinks too much about many things and is sentimental. If she were simpler, thought less, and only saw the good in Chu, the two of them would not be as miserable as they are now. In fact, Chu is such a good man. He seems to be wronged, but he is still thinking about Sister Luo."
Chen Ming was even more of a believer, and said with a smile, "That's why they say that women are virtuous even if they are not talented. Women who read too many books tend to daydream. Look, you and Ah Fu haven't read much, but you are both good wives and good mothers."
Wang disagreed and said, "I really have little education and know little. Ah Fu is very smart. Even if he has not read much, he knows more than others."
"That's true." Chen Ming nodded.
There were no classes today because it was a holiday, so Yu Ge'er and Xiao Yu'er took the animals to play in the Yiran courtyard. The old lady and Luo Yun sat under a tree in the courtyard to bask in the sun, watching the children playing with great pleasure.
The children had lunch in Tangyuan, and the old lady asked someone to invite the old man to come for dinner.
Although Luo Yun was unwilling to accept Chu Guangche again, he was still as filial to the old man as ever.
In the evening, Mrs. Luo took her family to Lu Garden. When they passed by Fu Garden, Xiao Yuer shouted loudly, "Grandpa, Grandpa, let's go to my grandma's house for dinner."
"Oh, here I come, here I come." The old man responded repeatedly, and then someone came out.
Xiao Yuer and Yuger were quite disappointed when they didn't see their grandfather come out.
Yu Ge'er pouted and said, "Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and the whole family is going to be together. How can we be together without grandpa?"
The little girl was smart and knew the reason after thinking about it. Grandma didn't want to see Grandpa, so Grandpa couldn't go to celebrate the festival with everyone.
She pulled Luo Yun's collar and said, "Grandma, Grandpa is spending the holiday alone. He must be so lonely and pitiful. Xiao Yuer can't bear it." She looked at everyone and said, "Great Grandpa, Great Grandma, and Brother can't bear it either."
Luo Yun felt very sad. He opened his mouth but still said nothing.
The old man didn't want Luo Yun to be embarrassed, so he laughed a few times and said meaningfully, "Your grandfather won't be lonely. When there is someone in your heart, no matter how far away you are, there is no distance. Besides, your grandfather is in Fuyuan, he can hear our conversation and smell the aroma of our wine."
Old Lady Luo said, "Guangche is a good boy."
Xiao Yuer was disheveled again and asked, "Great-grandmother, my grandfather is an elder, he has white hair and a white beard, he is not a child."
Old Lady Luo smiled and said, "No matter how old you are, you are still our children."
Luo Yun's heart skipped a beat. Not only his hair had turned white, but even his beard had turned white?
The meal was eaten in the living room. Steward Luo also sat at the table and drank with the old master and Chen Ming. Luo Yun and Chen Ming's family were very courteous to Steward Luo, and he could usually eat at the same table with his master. Wang also had someone send a table to Fuyuan to invite Chu Guangche to eat.
The old lady also drank a glass of wine. She urged Luo Yun, "Yun'er, you should drink some too. This wine tastes good."
The old man also said, "Xuan'er's mother, this wine is a gift from Xuan'er's wife. It is not only delicious, but also good for your health and beauty. Haven't you seen that my cousin is getting younger and younger?"
His words made everyone laugh. Luo Yun smiled but still shook his head and refused to drink.
After a good meal, everyone went to the yard to enjoy the moon. There were many fruits, dried fruits and snacks on the table.
Looking up at the sky, the stars are shining brightly, setting off a full moon. The fragrance of osmanthus drifts into Lu Garden with the evening breeze, which is very comfortable.
There are no osmanthus trees in Lu Garden, but the osmanthus trees in Fu Garden are planted right next to the wall, and the rich fragrance of the flowers drifts over with the evening breeze.
Everyone was talking and laughing. Of course, the old man and Xiao Yu'er were the main speakers, followed by the old lady and Yu'er, and Chen Ming would chime in. Luo Yun spoke very little, but would say a few words occasionally.
Those gentle words and chuckles made Chu Guangche feel happy and sad under the osmanthus tree. How many years has it been since I heard this laughter? I just don't know how long I have to wait for this laughter to come to me again!
He thought to himself that things were much better now than before. He could hear her laughter with his own ears, and was getting closer step by step...
