Tang Long, a man who was unemployed and had lost an eye, managed to find a girlfriend who was the bureau chief's daughter; he really knows how to get ahead.
A Lei said goodbye and left in the afternoon. Qin Xiaoyu guessed that he was just interested in hanging out with everyone for a while, but she was afraid that it would be too noisy with such a large family, so she ignored him.
Qi Si was worried about not having enough manpower, so he sent another helper from the store. Qin Xiaoyu didn't go to work, but she also ran around doing chores.
Tang Fengqin and Wang Lei came in the same car as Commander Wang and his wife. She changed her clothes and came over to help. Wang Lei's father had become familiar with everyone and was even more talkative than at home. He rolled up his sleeves and insisted on cooking one of his signature dishes.
Commander Zhou also came over with his hands behind his back to check, then went to the living room to play chess with Hanhan's grandfather. Hanhan and Xiaolisheng ran over to watch.
Zhou Yue was sitting on the sofa by the window, basking in the sun, when her fourth sister-in-law came over with a crochet hook and a ball of pink yarn, along with a half-finished sock. She had recently learned some crochet patterns and had crocheted a woolen sock for everyone in the family.
I'm showing this to Zhou Yue's child.
Sister-in-law Si kept her mouth busy in the kitchen, tasting everything from beginning to end, until Qi Si chased her out. She went back angrily to check if the two little ones had woken up from their afternoon nap.
"When will Godmother be back?" Qin Xiaoyu asked Qi Si when she had the chance.
Aunt Wang was taken to the detention center, which said she was going to perform a major religious ceremony and would need to stay for a few days.
"It should be soon. I took a look on the other day when I passed by, and the old lady has been fattened up quite a bit."
We were supposed to pick up my wife around dinnertime, but she arrived early, helped by Grandma Hanhan.
“Sitting for too long will get tiring. Go upstairs and rest for a while. My bed is warm.” Commander Wang walked over. Her family now lives in Building 4.
"I only came here to watch the excitement, Aunt Wang, you don't need to trouble yourself," the lady quickly stopped her.
"This big family is quite lively." Commander Wang sat down with a clove of garlic in his hand, peeling it while chatting with his wife.
"I used to dream of having a big family, and now it's right in front of me, but I still feel like it's a dream and I can't believe it." The wife raised her hand to wipe away a tear.
"It's truly a blessing from your wife; this is something most families don't get to see," Commander Wang remarked, looking up at the people inside and outside the room.
"Today, Longlong's girlfriend came to visit. I sensed that Longlong's father wanted Longlong to get married first. Aunt Wang, did he tell you about this?" the wife asked quietly.
"That won't do. We agreed to hold a wedding for Wang Lei and Feng Qin after the first month of the lunar calendar. We can't let that happen. We're counting on having a grandson." Commander Wang became anxious as soon as he heard this.
"Don't worry, I just heard it from them. It's nothing at all." The lady said this as a way of comforting her, but really she was just giving her a heads-up; she was still on Fengqin's side.
“With me in charge, no one dares to change the date,” Commander Wang said confidently.
Just then, there was a commotion at the door, and Xiao Si's wife came over with two nannies carrying Xiao Zhengxin and Xiao Zichen.
Fourth Sister-in-law and Grandma Hanhan went up to greet them, each taking one of them.
It's no secret in the Tang family that Xiao Zichen is Tang Wenwen's child. They love their own child dearly, and Grandma Hanhan snatched him away as soon as she saw him, refusing to give him to anyone else.
Grandpa Hanhan snatched it from her hands. The little boy had just grown two bottom teeth, and his smile was so cute it melted everyone's heart.
Zhou Xingma wanted to take Xiao Zhengxin to Commander Zhou's side, and the two of them started playing with him.
"You'll be holding your grandchildren soon too. I see Zhou Yue's belly is getting bigger and bigger, I'm afraid it might actually be twins," Fourth Sister-in-law said with a smile.
"We'll raise as many children as we want; we old folks are all just cheapskates," Zhou Xing's mother laughed.
"What time is the child coming?" Qin Xiaoyu asked as her cousin-in-law ran to the door.
"It's probably coming soon. I'll go back and take a look." My cousin-in-law opened the door and went out.
"Hey, they're here!" Zhou Yue, sitting by the window, saw them clearly and called out.
Qin Xiaoyu hadn't seen her face yet, and was very excited, so she ran to the door.
As soon as the door opened, my cousin's wife walked in, pulling a pretty girl along with her.
She wasn't as beautiful as Tang Fengqin, but she was still pretty and delicate, with an oval face and two deep dimples when she smiled, which were so sweet they were almost cloying.
Looking at Tang Long's doting gaze, Qin Xiaoyu knew that the young couple were deeply in love.
"This is my aunt. This is Xiaoli," Tang Long introduced Qin Xiaoyu first.
"Hello, Auntie," Xiaoli greeted shyly.
"Come on, let me introduce you to everyone. We're all family, so don't be shy." Qin Xiaoyu led Xiaoli around for a while, and finally helped her sit down next to Zhou Yue, thus completing her mission.
"What's wrong?" my cousin-in-law asked quietly.
"That's really nice, looks quite good, but seems to have a bit of a temper." Qin Xiaoyu has a good eye for people. Although this child is generous and well-mannered, judging from his eyebrows and eyes, he has been spoiled since childhood and has never been bullied.
"Who's that at the door looking for?" Zhou Yue asked, her eyes sharp. A tall, fat man kept peering inside.
"It's my brother," Xiaoli said hurriedly, and Tang Long ran over to open the door.
"Little Fatty?" Qin Xiaoyu was startled.
"Little Fish, what a coincidence! My sister is going to be your niece-in-law." Little Fatty seemed to know all the details.
"You little rascal, I owe you a lot for what happened last time." Qi Si came out of the kitchen and greeted him.
"Well, it's my fault. Everyone else uses fake invoices and nothing happens. I had no idea someone would specifically target us. If I handed in the real invoice, they fined me two hundred yuan and that was it," the chubby boy said with a grin.
"I don't know who reported it. This is something that officials won't investigate unless the people complain." Qin Xiaoyu is still in the dark.
"This matter should have been investigated by now, right? I remember someone surnamed Lei investigated it. Didn't he tell you?" Little Fatty asked, puzzled.
"A Lei found out? He didn't say." Qin Xiaoyu then realized she had been too trusting of A Lei. He said he didn't, so what? With his power, how could he not find out?
"If he won't say anything, I won't either. I'm afraid of this old man." The chubby boy stuck out his tongue and tried to slip away.
"It's okay, I'll go ask him myself." Qin Xiaoyu hadn't even had a chance to pick a fight with A Lei yet.
Just as dinner was starting, A Lei returned from outside with a bouquet of flowers. He walked around downstairs for a bit before going upstairs to change his clothes.
Qin Xiaoyu thought to herself, "This pretentious young master certainly lives a refined life. I'll definitely find a chance to pin him outside tonight and interrogate him properly about who got her into this detention center."
The meal was served at a long table pushed together, which filled over thirty people. Although Xiaoli was a woman of the world, she still broke out in a sweat from the large number of people talking at once.
Fortunately, Tang Long took good care of her and didn't make her suffer any grievances.
"I have an announcement to make: my Fengqin is going to be on stage!" Commander Wang clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention.
