Qin Boyan didn't go over. He sat next to his elder brother Qin Yanzheng and jokingly said in a low voice, "Well, actually he was praising how time hadn't left any marks on Song Lan's face."
"I think you're just asking for trouble!"
Even his older brother was making fun of him; how disrespectful!
Qin Yanzheng glanced at Qin Boyan and said softly, "Your sister-in-law seems to be only two or three years older than you. She is only in her early thirties now, and naturally she is still as beautiful as a flower."
"So, according to you, brother, when my sister-in-law gets old, she won't be a flower anymore?"
Qin Boyan looked at his elder brother Qin Yanzheng with great interest. Upon hearing this, Qin Yanzheng calmly said, "In my heart, your sister-in-law will always be the most beautiful flower. Even though her hair is white and her face is covered with wrinkles, she is still the most beautiful flower in the world and my most beloved wife!"
"She is also my most respected sister-in-law!"
Qin Boyan added a sentence.
"What's it to you?"
Qin Yanzheng rolled his eyes at the other party and said, "Your sister-in-law is mine..." Before he could finish speaking, Qin Boyan interrupted him: "Stop! My good brother, don't say that in front of my sister-in-law, otherwise, she will definitely make you pay."
"..."
Qin Yanzheng was completely confused.
Qin Boyan's lips twitched. He said, "What do you mean my sister-in-law is yours? Brother, listen carefully. My sister-in-law belongs to herself. She is not anyone's appendage. What you just said was disrespectful to my sister-in-law. Do you understand?"
"I did not mean that."
Qin Yanzheng tried to explain himself, but he did take Qin Boyan's words to heart, saying, "But I have learned something from what you said!"
Qin Boyan smiled and said, "We're brothers, so don't stand on ceremony with me."
The next day.
Around mid-afternoon, Qin Yaqing and Zhou Shiyang arrived at the Qin family home with their son, Zhou Zechuan. In Qin Yaqing's words, she hadn't been home to celebrate the New Year with her family since she got married. This time, the family was finally able to get together, so how could they leave out her family of three?!
When she said the family had finally managed to get together, she was actually referring to Qin Boyan's rare return home, especially since he had brought his wife back to their Beijing home. As the eldest sister, she naturally had to be there.
The New Year's Eve dinner was prepared by Song Lan and Qin Boyan's wives, as well as the three sisters Qin Yaqing, Qin Yaxin, and Qin Yaxuan.
With the combined efforts of the five sisters-in-law and aunts, the fragrant New Year's Eve dinner was served in no time.
After everyone was seated, Qin's father suppressed his emotions, looked around at his children and grandchildren, raised his wine glass and said a few auspicious words before urging everyone to start eating.
The Spring Festival Gala was playing on TV. Everyone, young and old, was having their New Year's Eve dinner. No one knew that Qin's father was thinking about his wife. Yes, he seemed to be having New Year's Eve dinner with everyone while watching the Gala, but in reality, he was remembering Qin's mother.
Mr. Qin thought to himself, how gratified his wife would be if she could see this scene...
The sound of firecrackers outside the window was incessant, and laughter filled the living room. Song Lan suddenly leaned closer to Qin Yanzheng and asked, "You're happy to see the whole family together, right?"
"Um."
Qin Yanzheng nodded.
"I'm very happy too!"
Song Lan said this, but her true feelings were quite different.
[Father, Mother, Second Brother, are you all doing well? I miss you all very much, but apart from not having you by my side, I'm actually quite happy! I have a loving husband and lovely, sensible children...]
