Lin Wanwan's face stiffened.
Clearly, they hadn't expected Lin Xiaoxiao to arrive at this time.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Qin Jinye could only speak up, "The eldest son's wife is here? Please have a seat."
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced around the living room; all the sofas and chairs were occupied. Where could she sit?
Upon seeing this, a hint of ill intent flashed in Yao Huixian's eyes.
There were a lot of people here today, and she had to borrow some of the chairs from next door, counting the number of people to borrow them, but she wouldn't leave one extra for Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Wanwan touched her belly, which wasn't showing yet, and looked at Lin Xiaoxiao with schadenfreude. "Sorry, little sister, it seems there are no seats left."
Qin Jinye then realized the problem and quickly got up to offer Lin Xiaoxiao his seat.
To his surprise, Lin Xiaoxiao stopped him, saying, "Dad, sit down."
Lin Xiaoxiao's indifference didn't mean Qin Jinye was without resentment. When no one was looking, he gave Yao Huixian a cold look.
She thought to herself that Huai Jun and Lu Xue'er's relationship had probably made her heart flutter.
To be honest, he didn't think much of this marriage.
What are you doing?
Just as Qin Jinye was lost in thought, Qin Huaijun's voice, barely containing his anger, rang out in the living room.
"Get out of the way." Lin Xiaoxiao kicked his ankle, her attitude extremely arrogant. "I'm your sister-in-law, give me your seat."
Everyone: "......"
That's so damn arrogant.
Lu Xue'er suddenly stood up, her face contorted, "Are you sick in the head?"
Lin Xiaoxiao ignored her and kicked her again, "Will you move or not? Otherwise I'm going to beat someone up. Your mom makes me unhappy, so I'll make all of you unhappy too."
As he spoke, he hummed, looking like he was about to cause trouble.
Qin Jinye: "......"
My bad, he actually thought his eldest daughter-in-law wouldn't mind.
However, Lin Xiao is right. Yao Huixian was in the wrong. She was six months pregnant. Wasn't she deliberately torturing her?
"Huaijun." Qin Jinye's expression was calm, but his words carried a particularly intimidating force. "Didn't you see your sister-in-law is pregnant?"
Qin Huaijun, who was kicked twice, felt no pain, but it was still embarrassing.
In front of the Lu family, he could only force a smile and offer his seat, saying, "Sister-in-law, please sit down."
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced around, took a cushion, placed it on her back, and sat down. She also had a soft pillow behind her back and comfortably rubbed her belly.
You can't let yourself suffer if you lose out to anyone else.
She felt more comfortable throughout the whole process than at home, while others could only curse her shamelessness in their hearts.
After Lin Xiaoxiao sat down, she said to Qin Huaijun, "If you don't want to laugh, then don't. You look like a ghost when you laugh, it's awful."
The smile froze on Qin Huaijun's face.
Lu Xue'er, who was sitting next to Lin Xiaoxiao, was very unhappy with Lin Xiaoxiao's smug look and reached out to push her.
"Try moving it?" Lin Xiaoxiao seemed to know what she was going to do, turned her head, looked at her outstretched hand, and curled up a cold smile.
"You..." Lu Xue'er was furious, and withdrew her hand. "I'm doing what I want, what's it to you?"
Ever since she was dismissed from the military arts troupe, she has harbored a deep hatred for Lin Xiaoxiao.
The moment I see her, I can't suppress the anger in my heart.
Lin Xiaoxiao said seriously, "It's okay to move, what's scary is not being able to control your hands and doing something stupid everywhere. If you get interrupted, you can only blame yourself."
Her words showed absolutely no respect for the Lu family.
Yao Huixian wanted to stand up for her future daughter-in-law to show the Lu family her stance, but Qin Jinye scared her off with just a look.
"It's getting late, let's eat." Qin Jinye said with a laugh, seeing the unpleasant expressions on the Lu family's faces.
The elders sit at one table, and the younger generation sits at another.
Lin Xiaoxiao came to the banquet, so naturally she wouldn't forget to eat.
Putting everything else aside, Yao Huixian put in a lot of effort for this meal. She somehow managed to get some beef and made a dish like braised beef brisket with potatoes and braised beef shank, just like in a private restaurant.
There were more meat dishes than vegetable dishes on the table, which was incredibly convenient for Lin Xiaoxiao, who loves meat.
“Now that the two children are engaged, we should start looking at wedding dates so we can prepare in advance,” Lu Hua said to Qin Jinye after they had a drink together at the dinner table.
Qin Jinye nodded, "That makes sense. I plan to have someone calculate an auspicious date."
With things having come to this point, Qin Jinye had no choice but to comply with Qin Huaijun's wishes.
Old Master Qin, who hadn't said much until now, said, "I've checked, and the 18th two months from now is an auspicious day, suitable for weddings. There won't be a better day than that in the next three months."
Two months later, it was the start of the second half of the year.
This doesn't conflict with Qin Huaijun and Lu Xueer's plan to get married in the second half of the year.
The old man came prepared.
Qin Jinye glanced at his elderly father, but smiled without saying a word.
Yao Huixian was not satisfied with the date the old man had suggested. "Dad, you shouldn't get involved. We should find a professional to calculate such an important matter."
Huaiyi made a mistake and was exiled to the Northwest. That's probably how her life will be for the rest of her days.
She placed all her hopes on Huaijun. After marrying Lu Xueer, Huaijun would surely soar to great heights in his career, so Yao Huixian attached great importance to her son's marriage.
Old Master Qin glanced at Yao Huixian and cursed her inwardly as an idiot.
"Let's have someone calculate it. If the date the old man mentioned is good, then we can choose that date." Lu Hua and Li Yuan said that they were fine with any auspicious date.
Qin Huaijun was very satisfied; getting married sooner would have more advantages.
But Lu Xue'er wasn't very satisfied, and this dissatisfaction was directed solely at Qin Huaijun.
She still liked Qin Yushen, after all, Qin Yushen was good-looking and had a bright future, and might even surpass her brother in the future.
After meeting more outstanding men, she could no longer like Qin Huaijun, a man who had no other redeeming qualities besides his pleasant voice.
But she's reached a certain age, so it's impossible for her not to get married.
Just then, Qin Huaijun appeared in front of her. He was Qin Yushen's younger brother. Although they were half-brothers, they still shared the same genes.
Lu Xue'er also felt like she had gone mad, that she would choose to marry Qin Yushen's younger brother just to get closer to him.
But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter who I marry.
After brainwashing herself for a while, Lu Xue'er accepted it with a smile.
Lu Yunzhang and Lu Yunzhang, who were just there to go through the motions, didn't say anything; these kinds of things should be decided by the elders.
Lin Wanwan, however, insisted on highlighting herself at this moment, saying, "From now on, Xue'er and my sister will be sisters-in-law. What a wonderful coincidence!"
Li Yuan snorted, "My Xue'er has a gentle personality. I just hope she won't be bullied."
This alludes to Lin Xiaoxiao's arrogant and domineering personality.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Wanwan as if she had heard something amusing, "Lu Xue'er has a soft personality? Didn't you tell Qin Huaijun that she was in the military region before...?"
"Shut up!" Lu Hua and Li Yuan said in unison.
Lu Xue'er's face turned as white as a ghost in an instant, and she glared fiercely at Lin Xiaoxiao.
Lin Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow and continued eating, "You can't even talk about what you've done? Your Lu family is really domineering."
