Chapter 1127 Good things are coming
As the heat of summer gradually fades and autumn deepens, the Mid-Autumn Festival arrives quietly.
Zhou Ziwen brought his family back to the Zhou family to celebrate the festival with Zhou's parents.
Because they were closer, they arrived first.
Zhou's father and mother had already prepared everything in the yard. Second sister Zhou Yaqin and younger sister Zhou Xiaomei also got up early to help with housework and prepare holiday meals.
When Zhou's father and mother saw Zhou Ziwen and his family coming back, their faces were filled with happy smiles.
Mother Zhou was busy preparing a sumptuous meal, while Father Zhou and Zhou Ziwen were setting up tables and chairs in the yard to prepare a place for moon-viewing.
My second sister Zhou Yaqin was helping in the kitchen, and laughter could be heard from time to time.
Younger sister Zhou Xiaomei took Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan to play in the yard, and the children's laughter could be heard one after another.
As time went by, the eldest brother Zhou Jianhua and the second brother Zhou Guohua also returned to the Zhou family with their families.
The eldest sister-in-law Lin Xiaomei and the second sister-in-law Liu Huifang were carrying large and small bags, all of which were food and gifts prepared for the festival.
As soon as the nephews and nieces came in, they started playing with Yueyue and Xuanxuan, and the yard suddenly became lively.
When Mr. and Mrs. Zhou saw that all the family members were present, they smiled with satisfaction.
While directing everyone to set the table, Mother Zhou also reminded the children not to run too far.
Dad Zhou was busy placing the baked mooncakes and fruits on the table, preparing for the evening moon-viewing activity.
At dinner, the family sat around the table and shared the reunion meal.
The dining table was filled with a variety of dishes, including Zhou Ma's specialty braised pork, special snacks brought by second sister-in-law Liu Huifang, and special foods from other places brought back by eldest brother Zhou Jianhua.
Everyone enjoyed the food and chatted about family matters, creating a warm and lively atmosphere.
After dinner, the children excitedly chased and played in the yard, while the adults sat at the stone table, drinking tea and chatting.
Zhou's father and mother looked at this happy scene and felt very relieved.
Zhou Ziwen, together with his elder and second brothers, helped light the lanterns in the yard. The whole yard was illuminated by warm lights, adding a festive atmosphere.
As night falls and the moon hangs high in the sky, the family sits in the yard and admires the moon together.
Dad Zhou took out the fine wine he had treasured for a long time, and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate and wish their families good health, happiness and well-being.
The children were chasing fireflies, laughing and talking happily.
On the warm Mid-Autumn night, Zhou Ziwen looked at his happy family and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
He thought of his second sister Zhou Yaqin and Li Qiang who had been together for several years, so he took the opportunity to ask with concern:
"Second sister, you and Brother Qiang have been together for a few years? When are you planning to get married?"
Zhou Yaqin smiled happily and replied softly, "We've been together for over three years and have been discussing marriage recently. Li Qiang said we'll start planning the wedding after the Lunar New Year, as soon as his current project is finished."
After hearing this, Zhou Ziwen felt happy for his second sister. He smiled and said:
"That's great, second sister. Qiaoyi, Shiying, and I are all looking forward to drinking in your wedding wine. You must prepare well and make the wedding a lively one."
After hearing what Zhou Ziwen said, Zhou Yaqin blushed and smiled shyly:
"We must do it well. This is the only chance in our life, so we can't be careless. When the time comes, Ziwen, you must help your brother-in-law with some advice. He doesn't know much about these things yet."
At this time, sister-in-law Lin Xiaomei smiled and interrupted, "That's right, Ziwen is now the most knowledgeable person in our family. He runs such a successful factory and is also a graduate student. He will definitely come up with a lot of novel ideas for the wedding."
The second brother Zhou Guohua also nodded and said: "That's right, when the time comes, let Ziwen help with the wedding arrangements. It will definitely be a surprise for everyone."
Everyone was talking at once, which made Zhou Yaqin feel full of anticipation.
Chen Qiaoyi took Zhou Yaqin's hand and said:
"Don't worry, Second Sister, we will definitely help you with the wedding. Shiying and I can also help you with wedding dresses and wedding candies. We guarantee that you will be the most beautiful bride."
Zhou Ma listened from the side, her eyes narrowed into slits with laughter:
"Seeing you all so successful and having such good relationships, I'm so happy. Yaqin, when you get married, I'll prepare a generous dowry for you."
Father Zhou also smiled and said, "Yes, our daughter's wedding cannot be underestimated. The wedding venue and banquet must be grand and magnificent."
When Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan heard the adults talking about the wedding, they ran over to join in the fun.
Little Yueyue opened her eyes wide and asked, "Mom, what is a wedding?"
Chen Qiaoyi smiled and explained, "A wedding is a big happy event where your second aunt and her husband get together and everyone celebrates together. There will be lots of delicious food and beautiful flowers."
Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan's eyes lit up when they heard this. They clapped their hands excitedly and said, "Then we want to go too!"
Zhou Yaqin smiled and patted their heads, saying, "Of course you can. Then you can be the little flower girls and scatter flower petals for Second Aunt and Second Uncle, okay?"
The two children nodded happily, their faces full of anticipation.
Zhou Yaqin looked at the two adorable children with eyes full of doting, and continued, "When the time comes, little Yueyue will wear a pretty little dress, and little Xuanxuan will wear a handsome little suit. They will definitely be very cute."
After hearing this, Xiao Yueyue happily turned around on the spot, imagining what she would look like in a beautiful dress; Xiao Xuanxuan straightened his back and shook his hair in a cool manner, which made everyone laugh again.
The eldest brother Zhou Jianhua also smiled and said, "On the wedding day, we must decorate our house beautifully. We should hang up festive red silk, put up big wedding characters, and place rows of flowers to fill the whole yard with a joyous atmosphere."
Sister-in-law Lin Xiaomei quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes, we should hire a professional photographer to record such an important moment. When we look through the photo album later, it will be full of beautiful memories."
The second sister-in-law Liu Huifang was not to be outdone and said, "We can't miss any programs at the wedding. Find some friends who can sing and dance to perform. It will be lively and exciting."
Zhou Ziwen felt warm in his heart as he watched his family engaging in a heated discussion.
He knew that every member of the family was carefully planning for his second sister's wedding, and this family love and unity was priceless.
As the night deepens, the bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the lanterns in the yard sway gently in the breeze, casting a warm light and shadow.
The family members sat together and continued to discuss the details of the wedding. Laughter and joy echoed in the night sky, adding a special meaning to this Mid-Autumn night.
On this night full of love, Zhou Ziwen became more determined to make his family happy.
