Chapter 872: Happiness Report, All Members
The 1.1 incident was extremely terrible, with 4 deaths and 3 injuries. It has been reported in the news. At Lu's request, Cao Shuang was reported prominently in the media to highlight his heroic deeds of saving people, hoping that this would allow his mother to retain some comfort in her heart.
But everyone knows that no amount of comfort can bring the person back. This is an irreparable regret.
The only thing the Lu and Bai families could do was to entertain Li Guizhi with the utmost sincerity and meet all her needs.
Dinner was had at Bai Qingxia's house. Lu Tian, Su Xiaoya, and Lu Yido all came, and Ruan Yueru also stayed.
Perhaps noticing the silence of everyone else at the table, Li Guizhi put down her chopsticks and said sincerely, smiling at the two families and Ruan Yueru, "Actually, I'm quite proud. That kid...did something that even surprised his mother. I think he's great."
"It's been almost a month since this happened. In a few days it will be New Year's Eve. It's time to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new. After this meal, let's move on and stop being sad."
Lu Tian stirred when he heard that and continued with a smile, "Yes, from now on our family will be together forever. Being happy is more important than anything else! Everyone, look forward, look forward!"
"Come on, come on, eat some food. This fish has been stewed for a long time. Lao Bai and I cooked it together today. Even if you don't give Lao Bai face, you have to give me face."
Bai Songzhe pointed at him and smiled.
"Come here, girl, eat fish." Lu Tian enthusiastically served Ruan Yueru a bowl of fish soup.
"Thank you, uncle." Ruan Yueru reached out to take it.
"Hey, what are you thanking me for? And you, what are you doing just standing there? You look down on the food your father cooks, right?" Lu Tian poked Lu Yido on the head.
Lu Yidong complained quietly: "I clearly saw that the dishes were all made by Uncle Bai, you were just passing things around..."
"Hahaha!"
"Hahaha!"
Lu Tian was frustrated and patted his daughter on the shoulder: "Silly girl."
Su Xiaoya frowned and tapped him on the head: "What are you talking about on New Year's Day!"
"Yes, yes, yes! My mouth is so stinky! Why did I say that word on New Year's Day!" Lu Tian raised his hand and slapped his mouth.
"Everyone, get moving. The weather is cold and the food is getting cold. Come, Sister Guizhi, try this soup too. It's very delicious." Lu Tian stood up and served a bowl to Li Guizhi.
Li Guizhi was not able to stand up, so Lu Yuanqiu quickly stood up, took it, and carefully placed it in front of Li Guizhi.
Li Guizhi smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Lu. I'll try your cooking."
"Hey, it still needs to be corrected appropriately. I did it, I did it." Bai Songzhe raised his hand to explain, not giving Lu Tian any face at all.
Zhang Ru and Su Xiaoya laughed out loud.
Bai Qingxia took out her phone and took a picture of the lively scene before her. As soon as she put the phone down, Lu Yuanqiu stood up and said, "Well... I'm done eating. I'm going back to my room to catch up on some sleep. Aunt Zhi, take your time."
Lu Tian looked up: "This child, just eat whatever you want..."
Li Guizhi nodded: "Okay, okay, Xiaoqiu, go and have a rest. You've been busy all day."
Lu Yuanqiu walked to the entrance, changed his shoes, opened the door and walked out. He took the elevator and went to the 17th floor.
The house was empty. Lu Yuanqiu changed his shoes and walked into the bedroom, closed the door, and lay on his side on the bed, covered with a quilt.
He had planned to take a nap, but he couldn't help but flip through the photo album on his phone until he came across the group wedding photo. Looking at Cao Shuang who was also wearing a wedding dress, Lu Yuanqiu was stunned.
He turned off the screen of his mobile phone and closed his eyes. He seemed to hear the sound of the door opening in a daze. After a moment, he turned over and looked behind him, and saw Bai Qingxia sitting on the ground with her back against his bed and hugging her legs.
Noticing the movement on the bed, Bai Qingxia turned her head and gave Lu Yuanqiu a gentle smile.
"You go to sleep, I'll sit here with you and not disturb you."
Lu Yuanqiu just stared at her sideways for a long time. Suddenly, his nose felt sore and he burst into tears. This was the first time he had cried out loud in nearly a month.
Bai Qingxia stood up and walked forward immediately with red eyes. She leaned against the head of the bed, held Lu Yuanqiu's head in her arms, and gently stroked his cheek with her palm.
"Cry, cry, my Yuanqiu, it's okay to cry. It's just the two of us here, you don't have to act strong..."
"You always act like an adult in front of me, but now you can't act like one anymore, right?"
She lowered her head, tears streaming down her face, but with a smile on her face, she gently patted Lu Yuanqiu's shoulder, comforting him softly as she patted him: "Let's not be sad anymore starting tomorrow, okay? New Year's Eve is coming soon. Aunt Zhi said that on New Year's Eve, we should say goodbye to the old and welcome the new..."
Her voice was soft and gentle, as pleasant as singing. Lu Yuanqiu felt the warmth in her arms, and gradually he became exhausted from crying and fell asleep.
…
Five days later, on January 30, 2014, New Year's Eve, everyone came to Lu Yuanqiu's house.
On the 17th floor of Xingfuli, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia, wearing festive red sweaters, stood at the door and warmly welcomed their relatives and friends in.
"I'm here to send my blessings."
Lu Douqing, wrapped in a thick down jacket, followed her parents to the door. She reached into her sleeve to take something out, but it was a little difficult. Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia were watching her performance with tense brows.
Uncle San thought she was taking too long, so he just pulled his wife inside.
"Hey."
Lu Douqing finally took out something red from her sleeve. She unfolded it with her hands and found it was a wrinkled Fu.
"Wow, is this magic? It's so amazing~" Lu Yuanqiu said in surprise.
Bai Qingxia was holding back her laughter.
"Come in."
"Wait a minute, there's more." After saying that, Lu Douqing turned Fu around and stood upside down.
She explained proudly: "This is a blessing."
Lu Yuanqiu clapped his hands: "Oh my God! Third sister, you are a genius!"
This wave of emotional value made the third sister a little drunk, and she was still smiling foolishly when she walked in.
She plans to do the same thing next year.
Lu Yuanqiu glanced at his watch and said to Bai Qingxia, "Is Liu Wangchun coming yet?"
"No, she sneaked out and was caught by her father and brought back home."
"That's right. How can you spend New Year's Eve at someone else's house? Uncle Liu really raised her for nothing."
Bai Qingxia smiled. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. Looking at the caller ID, she said to Lu Yuanqiu, "It's Sister Li."
"Sister Li should be back home. You can pick up the phone. Then come find me and take pictures."
"good."
Lu Yuanqiu closed the door and walked into the living room.
He took out his phone and went to the original "Marriage Wars" group chat. Now the group chat has been officially renamed "Remembering the Good Times of the Past" with the same name as the comic.

Zhong Jincheng was the first to post a photo. In the photo, he and Luo Wei were standing together. Luo Wei was holding a child in her arms. Both of them had smiles on their faces. The background wall showed the figure of Zhong's father busy in the kitchen.
