Seeing everyone around her looking at her, Liu Guilan smiled and said, "It's because Xiaoshan and Xiaxia are getting older and are of school age. Weiwei and Lao San and his wife think that the schools in Kyoto have a better teaching quality and are more conducive to the children's success. That's why we're thinking of having everyone move there as soon as possible, all for the sake of the children."
Upon hearing this, everyone present in the village felt envious.
"Your family is really something! Just so your children can go to school, you're going to move to the city, to a big place like Kyoto!"
"Yes, that's really something else!"
"Didn't you all realize that they were definitely going to move away? It was just a matter of time."
"Why didn't my son marry such a wonderful wife as Ye Zhiqing back then! If only I had known..."
Aunt Zhou: "If I had known it would turn out like this, it wouldn't have been your family's fault! Ye Zhiqing has high standards; she only wants a young man like Huo Xiao. Otherwise, who else could be good enough for her?"
They have absolutely no sense of proportion!
He's dreaming in broad daylight, only thinking about good things!
Zhao Yue'e and Wu Xiuyue also came over, and almost burst out laughing when they heard what Aunt Zhou said.
Ever since Liu Guilan called to say she was moving her whole family to Kyoto, countless families in the village have begun to regret not having won over Ye Zhiqing sooner. Otherwise, the good thing of moving to Kyoto would have been theirs.
Aunt Zhou is absolutely right. All these people are thinking about is going to Kyoto to become city dwellers, without even considering their own family's circumstances!
In this village, which young man can be as outstanding as Huo Xiao? And who can be as open-minded as Liu Guilan, the mother-in-law, who truly treats her daughter-in-law like her own daughter?
Putting aside everything else, just take Sun Hongying back then. She caused trouble at home every few days and gave birth to three granddaughters in a row. Liu Guilan, as the mother-in-law, should have taken care of her during her postpartum period and doted on her granddaughters. What did she say?
To have a good mother-in-law like Liu Guilan is a blessing from eight lifetimes ago.
Liu Guilan's good fortune is all due to her own efforts.
Hearing the commotion in the yard, Xu Meijun couldn't help but give Ye Weiwei a thumbs up: "Your mother-in-law's methods of stirring up hatred are truly unparalleled."
Not to mention the villagers who were envious and jealous, even she felt a little sour after hearing what Liu Guilan had just said.
This is infuriating!
Ye Weiwei smiled, thinking to herself, "You don't know there's a word called 'Versailles'?"
Liu Guilan's words were just the beginning.
When she saw Aunt Zhang and Lu Xiaolan peeking in from outside the door, she once again demonstrated the art of language. Ye Weiwei wondered if her mother-in-law had been cooped up in Kyoto all this time, otherwise why would she turn into "Versailles Liu" as soon as she came back!
Actually, Liu Guilan just wanted to vent her anger.
She hadn't forgotten how Lu Xiaolan and her daughter had spread rumors and caused trouble for them in the village. As the saying goes, a gentleman takes revenge as soon as possible. How could she let such a good opportunity slip by!
Aunt Zhang was indeed so angry at "Versailles Liu" that she was speechless.
She realized that Liu Guilan was doing it on purpose, deliberately showing off in front of her, so she angrily dragged Lu Xiaolan and the two of them home.
"Mom, what are you doing? Why are you walking so fast! Slow down!"
Lu Xiaolan, clutching her belly, hurried along, barely managing to keep up with her mother, Aunt Zhang.
Aunt Zhang slowed down when she heard her daughter's voice. Her face turned ashen, and she said angrily, "You saw it, didn't you? You saw it, didn't you? Look at Liu Guilan's smug look! Bah! She's really got a big deal out of it! So what if she moved to the capital? How dare she act so arrogantly!"
Lu Xiaolan frowned. She hadn't expected that Ye Weiwei's family would move the whole family to Kyoto just for the New Year!
That's Kyoto!
That family really hit the jackpot!
A group of country bumpkins who used to toil in the fields have suddenly become city dwellers!
Despite her jealousy, she didn't forget the purpose of her visit to Ye Weiwei's house today.
Lu Xiaolan touched her already showing belly. "Mom, didn't you say we should go and ask Ye Weiwei about Zhao Mingzhe's family? And also ask her to pass on a message that I'm pregnant?"
It would be best to get them to find a way to bring her and Zhao Mingzhe back to the city as soon as possible. That way, maybe when the child in her belly is born, it will have a Beijing household registration and be a city person from birth, which is better than the Huo family, a bunch of country bumpkins who came to the city halfway!
Aunt Zhang then remembered this, and slapped her forehead. She had been so angry at Liu Guilan's sarcastic remarks that she had forgotten such an important thing.
But thinking about Liu Guilan's high-spirited appearance, she felt more and more disgusted. She frowned and said, "There were so many people there just now. With your big belly, what kind of behavior was it to squeeze in like that? Anyway, they're not leaving today. Let's wait two more days before asking."
Lu Xiaolan thought about how many people were in Ye Weiwei's house and didn't want to go over and make a fool of herself, so she had no choice but to go home with Aunt Zhang.
Liu Guilan spent most of the day telling the villagers who came to her house about the wonders of Kyoto. When she got tired of talking, she took out some sweets and snacks she had bought in Kyoto, distributed them to everyone, and sent them away.
Aunt Zhou, Aunt Lü, Zhao Yue'e, Wu Xiuyue, and others sat down for a while. Seeing that there was nothing to help tidy up, and knowing that the family had just returned and needed to rest, they all left with the others.
Xu Meijun spoke with Chen Jiali, Hou Zheng, Xie Ning, and a few others for a while before preparing to leave.
Ye Weiwei quickly called out to Hou Zheng and handed him a package: "This is something your family asked me to bring back."
After saying that, she looked at Xu Meijun meaningfully.
Xu Meijun glared at Ye Weiwei, embarrassed and annoyed: "You're bringing him something, why are you looking at me like that!"
Ye Weiwei deliberately cleared her throat and said to Hou Zheng, "Your family heard that you have a girlfriend here, so they specially asked me to bring this over and tell you that it is for your future daughter-in-law, so that you can take on the responsibilities of a man and the young couple can grow together."
Hou Zheng lived in a different compound than them. After asking around, she found her and learned that Hou Zheng hadn't gone home for the New Year, but had called his family to say that he was dating a fellow educated youth and would be spending the New Year with her.
His family was both happy and worried when they heard the news. They were happy that their son had finally come to his senses, but worried because they had never met the person from so far away and didn't know what kind of person he was. They were afraid that their son would be deceived.
Therefore, I asked Ye Weiwei for information.
