Jiang He, who had returned shortly after, called out that dinner was ready, and the group then turned toward the new house.
When they saw Shui Qing again, the expressions on everyone's faces were a mixture of friendliness and admiration.
Shui Qing was completely bewildered and turned to look at Fan Jin in a daze.
The latter maintained his refined and gentle smile, without offering any explanation.
Shui Qing: ...Well, say it!
When I first arrived, apart from the old village chief, these elderly people weren't as friendly as they are now, let alone as respectful.
It must have been something Fan Jin said outside.
She was curious about how Fan Jin had changed the attitudes of these elderly people, since the older people get, the more stubborn they become, clinging to the belief that their own ideas are the most correct.
How much effort did Fan Jin actually put in to change their attitude?
But now is not the time to ask that...
"Great River, Great Lake, quickly take your people to their seats!"
"You kids, there's not enough room for us here, so you should go to the men's table!"
Fan He refused, saying, "Mother, there are so many people smoking pipes over there. I don't want to go. I want to sit with you!"
"I also want to sit at the same table with you, Mother and Eldest Sister!" Fan Jiang wasn't stupid.
The men's table was full of grandfathers, a bunch of old men who loved to lecture. If the younger ones went up there, they'd be scolded.
On the other hand, at my mother's table, all the women were kind-hearted aunties and grandmas. They were all smiles and caring, and they would even serve them food. How comforting!
Fan Hu stared longingly at Shui Qing, hoping his mother would soften her heart.
Ling Ran lowered his head, indifferent.
Shui Qing's heart was as cold and hard as a fish that had been killed more than ten years ago, and she disagreed in the slightest: "No way!"
Grandma Xu and the others didn't want to sit at that table either, so they all came to our side. Including the aunties and grandmas who had helped us before, there wasn't enough room for everyone!
"Go, all four of you, don't even think about coming over here!"
The village elders invited not only men but also women.
As a result, none of them wanted to sit at the same table as their husbands, preferring to squeeze in with them rather than go over there.
There was no other way but to temporarily change the large round table to be used by the women and the octagonal table to be used by the men.
It was already crowded, and these four little ones wanted to join in the fun? Absolutely not!
Fan He pouted, and seeing that his mother had no room for negotiation, he had no choice but to drag his legs toward the men's table.
Shui Qing: ......Heh, you look down on them now, but when they get old, even the young ones will look down on sitting at the same table with you.
After sending the four children away, Shuiqing happily closed the door and immersed herself in the lively atmosphere inside the house.
Facing five large bowls of generously portioned dishes, a group of elderly people unconsciously swallowed their saliva.
They tentatively reached out with their chopsticks and first picked up a piece of cabbage, only to find that most of it was fat.
There was more fat in the meat than in the cabbage!
They swallowed hard, thinking that Fan Jin's wife was indeed a magnanimous woman!
This is fatty meat.
Fatty meat with plenty of oil.
