Zhou Xiang held his forehead with his hand. This man was becoming more and more ill. It was time to see a doctor.
"I'm not sick!"
"Yes, yes, you're not sick. You've almost made me half-crippled from all the pain I've suffered. The age difference isn't a big deal."
Ling Ran wiped away the resentful look on his face and revived with full energy, "Wife, I like to pamper you like my own daughter. I am sure you will become more and more spoiled."
"Yes, yes, I will become more and more anxious." More and more anxious is almost the same.
Ling Ran didn't understand the hidden meaning in these words. He went upstairs, holding his wife's hand, and was about to go downstairs.
"Wait!" Senior Jiang stopped him, "What are you calling me? Is that how you call your fiancée wife?"
Ling Ran immediately hugged his wife in his arms and declared his sovereignty, "We are a married couple. We got our marriage certificate on August 2, 1995. We don't want to have a wedding, so we'll wait until things calm down."
Jiang Weihua's anger subsided when he heard the last sentence. It was all because of his father's greed.
I think Ling Ran also knows the whole thing, otherwise, he wouldn't say that. Since he can do this for his niece, what else can he say?
"Okay! When the time comes, I will definitely hold a luxurious wedding."
Ling Ran nodded, and Zhou in his arms wanted to withdraw from his arms, "Can I refuse luxury?"
"cannot!"
"cannot!"
It's rare for two men who have always disliked each other to speak with one voice. Zhou Xiang can only remain silent and talk about it later!
When they arrived at the dining room, A-Lian was still chopping vegetables. Jiang Weihua told her to get up and said, "Move aside, I'll do it. This is heavy work, you can't do it."
"Sir, you, you don't want to rest?"
Jiang Weihua paused, and Zhou wanted to pull A Lian up. "Let men do the heavy work, and women do the light housework."
"oh!"
Zhou Xiang took advantage of the situation and pulled her aside to sit down. "A-Lian, I've discussed this with Senior Jiang. It's not appropriate for you to recognize him as your uncle. It's better for you to recognize him as your brother!"
The first words made A-Lian's head droop lower and lower. After hearing the second words, A-Lian immediately raised her head and said, "Sir?"
Jiang Weihua controlled his emotions, smiled and nodded.
A-Lian looked at Zhou Xiang again, "Why?"
"Senior Jiang is only 10 years older than me and the same age as my eldest brother. I can't bring myself to call him uncle. I like calling him Senior Jiang the most. If you want to be related to him, it would be best to recognize him as your godson."
A-Lian thought for a moment and nodded, "Yes! The gentleman is too young, so calling him brother is more appropriate."
Jiang Weihua couldn't help grinning. He was still very young.
"Since both of you agree, then it's settled. At lunchtime, you two can have a drink together and that'll be considered your agreement."
A-Lian blinked. "Is there no ceremony?"
"The ceremony is a meal with relatives and friends. Aren't they all here? Do you need to ask your mother to come over?"
A-Lian shook her head. "No, Mom's doing odd jobs during the holidays!"
"That's all right, everyone will be here for lunch, so just call him brother."
"The names seem a bit confusing."
"It doesn't matter. Just call each other by their own names. Just you and him change your names, and leave the others alone for now."
"Okay!" A-Lian didn't find anything wrong with it, so she agreed.
Zhou's mother and the blind lady looked at each other, not understanding what Xiangxiang was up to. However, they did not want to get involved in young people's affairs.
Jiang Weihua started chopping the vegetables seriously, clinking them, clinking as if he had endless energy.
Zhu Hang and Jin Chao glanced at him and continued their slow pace.
It was time to make lunch. Zhou's mother entered the kitchen and called Zhou Xiang in, "Xiang Xiang, do you want more food for lunch?"
Zhou wanted to get up and walk into the kitchen, "Of course, it's a happy occasion to be recognized as a godparent!"
When her daughter came to her side, Zhou's mother couldn't help but ask her what she was doing?
Zhou Xiang chuckled, "A-Lian wanted to acknowledge Senior Jiang as her uncle, but Senior Jiang had other ideas. I persuaded him to agree to acknowledge her as his godparents, but only as brother and sister."
Mother Zhou took a long time to react before she lowered her voice and asked, "Your uncle likes you?"
"Yes! That's why he got angry just now. This time, his seniority has been determined, and he won't have to worry about gossip in the future. Isn't he just chopping vegetables again?"
"You child!" Mother Zhou smiled and nodded at her little girl. "That's good. We're finally one step closer. A-Lian is a simple girl. I just don't know if she can survive under that mother-in-law."
"Senior Jiang no longer listens to her, and it's even more impossible for him to continue to be controlled by her after marriage. He will definitely continue to live like this. Once he has a child, her attention will be diverted. In short, I agree."
"You approve, and she gets even angrier."
"That's good!"
At this point, the mother and daughter both turned to the dishes. Zhou Xiang ordered a lot of dishes, and Zhou's mother scolded him, "Are you eating out?"
"Oh! You prepare first. I'll call my dad and he'll be the chef."
"Go quickly."
Zhou wanted to go to the North Building to call for help, but Ling Ran quickly interrupted him, "I'll go run errands."
When Zhou's father heard that the noon banquet was for the family reunion, he immediately put on an apron and protective sleeves and said, "Okay! I'll be the chef."
Zhou wanted to push Ling Ran into the kitchen to help, but he was too clingy and he would accidentally step on his foot when he turned around.
At half past twelve, the meal was ready, the chopping of vegetables on the table was completed, and the table was cleared.
Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran brought out the dishes, set the table, and took out the wine and drinks.
Mother Zhou prepared the soup and Aunt Wang's meal, and Zhu Hang took them upstairs, and called Wu Haotian downstairs to eat.
Zhou Xiang also deliberately arranged for A Lian and Jiang Weihua to sit face to face so that they could clink glasses later.
After everyone was seated and the wine and drinks were poured, Zhou Xiang stood up and said, "There's an important event happening this afternoon. Senior Jiang and A-Lian are planning to become sworn siblings, so it's a good opportunity for everyone to be witnesses."
Everyone had different expressions, but they all applauded and congratulated.
Zhou wanted to ask A-Lian and Senior Jiang to raise their glasses, clink them, and just change their names. It wasn't that important for peers to recognize each other as relatives.
A-Lian stood up, raised her cup, and toasted to Jiang Weihua, "Brother, I like you very much. I feel like a family member."
Jiang Weihua also stood up and clinked his glass with A-Lian's. "Sister, I'll protect you from now on! If you have any grievances, just tell me."
"good!"
The two raised their glasses and drank, and Zhou Xiang led the applause. "Okay, the name has officially changed. Let's get closer from now on."
Although Wu Haotian didn't watch the first half, but the second half, coupled with Zhou Xiang's summary, what else did he not understand? Not only him, but all the young men present understood. Poor little white rabbit was fooled by Zhou Xiang.
There are only three people who don’t understand, no, four people, A-Lian herself, Zhou’s father and Jiankangkang.
Jiang Weihua was both worried and happy. This silly girl, A-Lian, was sold by her niece and could even help count the money. Fortunately, she was sold to him.
Wu Haotian quickly finished his meal and went upstairs. He was a little scared. Although Zhong Lan was not as naive and easy to deceive as A Lian, she was also a very real girl. He had to remind Zhong Lan.
