In the afternoon, just before dinner time, Song Lili suddenly noticed that Zhang Aiai was frequently looking at Fang Yaoqing, and she knew in her heart that it was coming soon.
They were finally about to reveal the reason for their visit that afternoon.
After thinking for a moment, Song Lili stood up before Zhang Aiai could speak and said, "Big Sister, I'll go prepare dinner."
"Let Ai'ai and the others stay for dinner tonight, as a farewell dinner, since we're leaving in a few days."
"Okay, okay, okay," Zhang Shengtian said happily, nodding repeatedly. "Okay, let's do it this way. Today, the whole family can get together and have a good meal."
"We don't know when we'll be back next time, so let's just treat today as a good get-together."
Zhang Shengtian was genuinely happy. His daughter had been very well-behaved all afternoon, without any worries, anxieties, or anger.
How could he not be happy?
"Big brother, I'll go help my sister-in-law." Lin Xue stood up right after her.
Although she didn't understand it, Lin Xue knew that Song Lili wouldn't suddenly leave without a reason.
There must be something going on with her leaving.
Lin Xue couldn't understand it, but she knew in her heart that Song Lili was smarter than her and thought about some things much more deeply than she did.
Follow her instructions, and you'll have no problem at all.
Even if it's just to cook dinner, it's fine; it's just helping out and it's not tiring.
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you two sisters-in-law today. Cook a nice meal so everyone can have a good time."
Zhang Shengtian readily agreed, and the fact that his two daughters-in-law valued his daughter made him even happier.
This shows that his daughter-in-law still respects him and treats his daughter as family.
Which elderly person wouldn't be happy about that?
Little did he know that his two daughters-in-law did not treat their daughter as family at all; they were trying to escape and did not want to get involved in this mess.
"Okay, let's go." Song Lili glanced at Lin Xue, who was smiling at her, before turning and leaving.
Song Lili wondered if Lin Xue had also figured something out, or if she simply wanted to help.
Whatever the reason, if she wants to follow, then let her follow.
After Song Lili and Lin Xue left, Zhang Aiai visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
In my heart, I always felt like I was facing a formidable enemy when I looked at Song Lili. I was just wary of her, or rather, somewhat afraid of her.
It's good that we're going out now; it'll be even better if Song Lili can't hear what we're going to talk about later.
Otherwise, she would definitely jump out and stop it.
For some reason, Zhang Aiai had this premonition.
Zhang Shengtian, unaware of his daughter's thoughts, looked at Zhang Aiai with a smile and said, "Spend some quality time with this old man today."
"I haven't seen you for several years. From now on, you must live a good life with Yaoqing and not act like a child."
"A husband and wife should take care of and be tolerant of each other. Only in this way can their life last a long time and be prosperous."
Harmony in the family brings prosperity in all things. This is not just a slogan, but a summary of the wisdom of many predecessors.
As long as he has a harmonious family, Zhang Shengtian believes that anything can be resolved.
This is a father's earnest teaching to his daughter, containing his love and hope for her.
However, whether the person in front of them can listen to what they're saying... remains to be seen.
However, Zhang Aiai certainly didn't listen; she and Fang Yaoqing were exchanging glances at each other.
He mumbled incoherently, "I know, I know, don't worry." He agreed to everything, no matter what, because he figured it couldn't be wrong.
"It's good that you know." Zhang Shengtian was genuinely relieved and believed that his daughter could keep her word.
"Yes, don't worry, sir." After receiving a wink from Fang Yaoqing, Zhang Aiai smiled and nodded again.
"Okay, I'm relieved now that you understand." Zhang Shengtian genuinely thought she had taken his advice.
"Big Brother, how's your job going?" Zhang Aiai asked tentatively.
"Your older brother's job? I don't know much about it, but it should be good." Zhang Qinghua rarely talked about work at home, so Zhang Shengtian wasn't very clear about it either.
"And what about Second Brother? How is he?" Zhang Aiai continued to ask, a hint of excitement in her eyes.
"Your second brother? He should be doing pretty well too. I heard he works well at the factory and is quite good at his job. Your brother likes him a lot."
Zhang Qingguo talked about it more often, so Zhang Shengtian knew more about it.
"Is that so?" Zhang Aiai and her husband both looked thoughtful. "Then... they must be quite good."
Zhang Shengtian nodded, "It's pretty good, anyway, I think it's great." Coming from this poor rural area, the fact that he can cook like this now is really quite impressive.
However, Zhang Aiai misunderstood Zhang Shengtian's meaning, thinking that what Zhang Shengtian said was quite right, that his two older brothers were doing quite well now.
The light in his eyes shone even brighter, and he felt very confident.
"Then... Uncle, can... can they help me?" Zhang Aiai gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and looked pitiful.
"Help you? What's wrong?" Zhang Shengtian asked, puzzled. Had something happened to the Fang family? Why hadn't Ai'ai mentioned it?
I immediately felt anxious; when something happens to your children, you're the one who's most worried.
"I'm fine, I'm fine." Seeing that Zhang Shengtian was anxious, Zhang Aiai quickly tried to calm him down.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, I just want my two older brothers to help me out." As she spoke, she glanced at Zhang Shengtian, thinking about how to say it.
"Hey, why is Ai'ai back again?" At this moment, Zhang Qingguo suddenly returned.
After Zhang Aiai left, he felt depressed, so he went outside to walk around the fields to clear his mind.
I finally managed to convince myself and feel better, but then I saw my sister again as soon as I walked in the door.
However, he was still pleasantly surprised and happy.
My sister's presence here means she's not angry anymore, which makes me very happy.
"Second Brother is back?" Zhang Aiai stood up happily, looking at Zhang Qingguo with great enthusiasm, but her smile seemed a little fake.
Zhang Qingguo didn't notice the fakery. He just felt that his sister was being a little too enthusiastic.
He didn't think much of it, but was just happy and immediately responded enthusiastically, "Yes, you're back."
“Let’s have dinner here tonight and have a good talk between my brother and me,” Zhang Qingguo said.
Zhang Aiai's smile deepened. "Okay, I also want to have a good talk with my second brother. We haven't seen each other for several years."
“Yes, it’s so far away, it’s hard to even see each other. Who knows when we’ll meet again?” Zhang Qingguo sighed.
Their family left, leaving my younger sister here. Sometimes when I think about it, I feel really sad.
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let my sister get married so early. Maybe she would be gone now.
