"Jinbao! Oh! Auntie, I didn't recognize you. What a good boy! You've grown so tall all of a sudden! Wow, your shoulders are so strong! You've grown into an adult!"
Hearing the praise, Lin Jinbao scratched his head shyly: "Thanks to my sister, I learned all this from her and her husband."
"You still have some conscience!" Father Lin nodded in satisfaction after hearing his son say this. "Your sister has worked so hard on the island these years and done so many good things for the Women's Federation. Not only has she arranged blind dates for everyone, but I heard she also organized activities to respect the elderly. She's really worked so hard!"
"What? A blind date? And it's at the Women's Federation. Oh my, Jiaojiao is really capable!"
"That……"
"Of course not! My daughter Jiaojiao not only works at the Women's Federation, but also at a state-owned restaurant and the food factory. The snowy mooncakes we ate before were designed by my daughter. Oh, it's just too hard!"
“Isn’t this too amazing?”
"Jiaojiao, is this all true?!"
“That’s awesome!”
“No.”
"Okay, everyone, stop praising me. Look how embarrassed my daughter is. I didn't expect her to do these things at all. I just hoped she could marry a good man. Fortunately, she married the right person. My son-in-law is also amazing. He treats my daughter well. He also has such a good mother who takes good care of my daughter in this family. Now, she has a child, twins at once. This is such a happy event. My daughter's life is finally complete!"
"Old Lin is so lucky to have two little grandchildren at once. Now Jinbao is so successful too. Good days are ahead!"
Seeing the envious and jealous looks of the neighbors, Father Lin smiled from ear to ear: "Qiu Fen, why don't you take them upstairs quickly? They've been traveling all the way and need a good rest."
"Yes, everything is ready at home, come back soon, mother-in-law!"
Li Qiufen took Zhang Xiaoe and led the way.
Father Lin followed at the end.
The neighbors felt so jealous when they saw their family having so much fun.
"See?! Big bags and small bags! How many things have been brought back?"
"Not only that, just look at the clothes Lin Jiaojiao and her mother-in-law are wearing. They are made of such fine materials, we have never seen such a thing before!"
"Don't even mention them. Even the shoes those kids are wearing are the kind you only see in Shanghai. What are they called? They're famous brands! You can't even buy them with coupons!"
"This old Lin family is really prosperous!"
"Not only are they rich, but even Li Qiufen, who came later, is also benefiting from it. Did you see the silk scarf around her neck? That was also bought by my daughter!"
“…”
Father Lin felt even more proud as he listened to everyone's comments.
I haven't even drunk the wine yet, but I feel like I'm floating when I walk!
Lin Jiaojiao happened to catch a glimpse of his expression before she entered the room. Thinking of the irrelevant boasting just now, she couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth.
She suddenly felt that this face-conscious father Lin was actually quite cute!
The house was indeed tidy, and the tables and benches were wiped clean.
There are already some cold dishes on the table.
"The dishes are ready, just waiting for you to come back. Please sit down. I'll heat up the remaining dishes and they will be ready soon!" Li Qiufen said as she ran to the public kitchen.
Zhang Xiao'e was about to get up to help when Lin's father stopped her. "Don't worry, mother-in-law. She can do this job on her own. You're all tired from traveling so I asked for some water to be prepared. Just wash up. Living in a tube building is such a hassle. You have to run up and down the stairs all the time!"
"It's okay, I'm a farmer, I don't care about this!"
Several people were chatting happily.
The little ones were very curious when they arrived in a new environment for the first time.
Lin Jinbao took them on a tour.
I also took a look at the nest where Lin Jiaojiao used to live.
Xiaoxue and Xiaofeng looked at such a small house and the place where their mother lived, and their faces were filled with heartache.
"Mom, why do you live in such a small place?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin's father was embarrassed.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Lin Jiaojiao smiled and changed the subject: "Dad, how's work going?"
"It's okay. The factory is getting more and more crowded now. Luckily, your aunt and I are both elderly and haven't been affected. We were just worried about how you two were doing on the island. Now that we see you like this, we're relieved!"
"Come on, the food is on the table!"
Li Qiufen prepared a lot, including meat, vegetables, hot and cold dishes, a large table.
I also bought two bottles of good wine.
"Today it's just the two of us, no need to be polite to each other. When you got married before, his mother and I didn't make it. Now we have to have a good drink and a good chat!"
Father Lin poured the wine as he spoke, not giving Ji Huaian any chance to refuse.
When Lin Jinbao came back and saw them, he immediately became unhappy: "What do you mean by 'you two'? It should be the three of us. I'm not a child anymore and can drink. Let's drink together today!"
"How old are you? You've already learned to drink?"
"Mom is so happy today, I want to drink!"
After returning to his mother, Lin Jinbao became a little more willful.
Father Lin laughed and placed a cup in front of Lin Jinbao: "You're right, the first step to becoming a man is to learn to drink. Tonight, the three of us won't go home until we're drunk!"
"Okay! Brother-in-law, let me toast you first. In this world, besides my sister, the person I admire most is you!"
"I'll toast you a glass too. Seeing how well you've raised my daughter, and seeing your family happy, I'm really happy. Come on, let's drink together!"
The three of them drank it all in one gulp, and the atmosphere became extremely lively.
After Li Qiufen sat down, she pulled Lin Jiaojiao and Zhang Xiaoe and talked non-stop.
There was no longer any harsh look on his face, and he was full of concern and praise.
Seeing the atmosphere was just right, Zhang Xiao'e recalled her previous plan and took the initiative to mention it: "Actually, there's no need to feel so sorry. I've been preparing for this. I just want to find a time to hold a wedding for these two children at home."
"Is the mother-in-law real?"
"Of course, even though we don't live in the village anymore, we still have a lot of relatives there. Many people have watched Ji Huaian grow up, so holding a party is a good way for everyone to have some fun together!"
"This is a good thing!"
Father Lin agreed with a look of approval: "This way, we can also enjoy the warmth here. Don't worry, mother-in-law, the money will be paid by both families."
“…” Li Qiufen was stunned for a moment.
Why didn't this person discuss this with her?
Holding a wedding is not a small expense.
However, when he thought of Lin Jiaojiao and Ji Huaian's current status, he immediately smiled again: "Yes, such a great thing, our two families must discuss it together, and make it a lively and beautiful event!"
"Mom and Dad are going to get married again!"
