Sister Liu's eyes reddened; to her, this gift was incredibly precious.
Thank you, Xiaoyu.
"We're all family, no need to thank me. Let's go downstairs for dinner." Old Guan couldn't bear to see tears, so he quickly made arrangements to go downstairs.
On the first floor, we prepared three tables today, and hired a chef to come and cook.
Old Man Guan raised his glass and said, "Thank you all for coming to my wedding with Xiao Liu. From now on, we'll all be living in the same courtyard again."
"That's right, all of us old guys have gathered together again," Grandpa Ge said with a smile, raising his glass.
"Happy wedding!" Everyone raised their glasses together.
There were no fancy words; a group of old neighbors happily ate a meal together. Sister Liu felt incredibly at ease. She didn't know what the future held, but at that moment, she felt that her decision was right.
Their place was warm and peaceful. Cao Jun and his wife pushed Liang Guangming to the courtyard where Sister Liu lived.
Several old ladies at the door were gossiping about Sister Liu when they saw Cao Jun pushing the old man over. Their eyes all shot towards Liang Guangming like laser beams.
Liang Guangming held six fingers on his left hand and seven on his right, his eyes glazed over, and drool dripping from the corner of his mouth.
Compared to him, Old Man Guan was simply a dragon among men and a Red Hare among horses.
Liang Lijun rolled her eyes at the group of old ladies; these were the people who had hit her a few days ago.
The old ladies didn't hold back either, and they scooped it back with all their might. Who do you think you are? You little hussy are no match for her in any way.
Cao Jun nodded politely to the elderly ladies. He explained that his father-in-law would be living here in the future, and his mother would need to ask the neighbors for help if she had any problems. He hoped that the relationship wouldn't become too strained.
The courtyard gate had a threshold, and the wheelchair had to be carried in. It took Cao Jun and Liang Lijun a lot of effort to carry the wheelchair and Liang Guangming into the courtyard.
Liang Lijun was panting heavily, cursing in her heart that the old ladies hadn't offered to lend a hand.
The old lady munched on sunflower seeds, watching the spectacle. She figured they'd be out the same way they got in, selling their child to buy a monkey—just watching them play.
Liang Lijun's suggestion to Cao Jun to "call your mother to come out and greet her" showed how much she valued her father.
Cao Jun nodded and jogged over to call Sister Liu, while Liang Lijun slowly pushed the wheelchair behind him.
"Mom, Mom, my father-in-law is here!" Cao Jun called out before even reaching the door.
When he got to the door, he found it was locked. He quickly called Sister Liu, but couldn't get through. He then ran towards the door.
"Where are you going? Where's your mother?" Liang Lijun asked.
Cao Jun: "She's not home. I'll go ask her where she went, maybe she went to buy groceries."
Liang Lijun was a little unhappy. She had been told to wait at home yesterday, but today she was running around. Couldn't she have gone out to buy groceries earlier?
"Auntie, my mom isn't home. Where did she go?" Cao Jun asked the old ladies at the door.
"Isn't your mom home? We didn't see her go out," the woman replied, cracking sunflower seeds.
Cao Jun… “Didn’t you see my mother today?”
"Why should we keep an eye on your mother every day? You didn't pay us to watch her," the neighbor lady rolled her eyes at Cao Jun.
"My mom isn't home, I was just asking, please don't get so angry, ma'am," Cao Jun said with a smile.
The woman said, "In this time, you could call your mother. She's always busy with her stall and other things. She's not as idle as us. She's so lucky to have such good children."
Cao Jun...
"Auntie, my phone is dead. Could you lend me your phones for a moment? I need to call my mom. We have some guests at home." Cao Jun reacted quickly.
"What kind of guest is that? Isn't that the paralyzed old man you found for your mother? Your wife's father, your father-in-law?" The aunties bluntly exposed him, saying he dared to do it but didn't dare to admit it, so why was he still trying to cover it up?
