Chapter 243: Finally someone shows up]

"Xiang Hong, your luck at playing cards is so good today, isn't it?"

Qin Erhua took out some change and handed it to Ye Xiang Hong, and said in surprise: "You won three games in a row!"

After that, she said to Lu Aiguo in a tone of disappointment: "Aiguo, you haven't been back in these few years, and your card playing level has declined a lot. You've fed us so many cards. Two of the three games that Xiang Hong won were played by you!"

"I haven't played for too long, I don't know how to play anymore."

Lu Aiguo said lightly: "Let someone else play with you."

As he said that, he took the opportunity to get up and wanted to leave, but was held down by Qin Erhua.

"Besides you, who else here knows how to play? We can't ask the old lady to give us someone from the table, can we?"

Although Qin Erhua disliked Lu Aiguo's bad card playing today, she thought that since there was no one else around, they could just join in.

Lu Aiguo: "..." He missed the chance to escape.

"Aunt Qin, Uncle Lu, Aunt, Mother, drink something to warm up first."

Ye Qingyue came over with a cup and placed it next to them.

While giving Lu Aiguo a hot drink, Ye Qingyue's eyes swept over him and she noticed that Lu Aiguo seemed to be peeking at her mother.

Ye Qingyue: "?"

Hiss...

She took a breath of coolness in her heart. Something was wrong, something was a little wrong.

"This rock sugar and snow pear is so sweet and delicious!"

Qin Erhua took a long breath and urged everyone to continue playing cards.

With a lot of questions in her mind, Ye Qingyue went to serve hot drinks to others.

After finishing her work, Ye Qingyue grabbed Ye Mei who was about to return to the kitchen and whispered, "Sister, I found something."

She told her about Lu Aiguo deliberately feeding cards to their mother and peeking at her.

"Feeding cards on purpose?"

After thinking about it for a while, Ye Mei came to the conclusion, "He actually just didn't want to play cards, so he deliberately lost and wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, right?"

"But he peeked at our mother." Ye Qingyue said.

"Nine times out of ten, he accidentally glanced over and you just happened to see it."

Ye Mei waved her hands, looking like an experienced person, and said, "Think about it, if he really likes our mother, he must have nailed his butt to the bench and sat with our mother to play cards for an afternoon to enhance their relationship. Who would deliberately avoid their loved one?"

"This..."

Ye Qingyue was a little convinced by Ye Mei.

"What's more, Aunt Qin and our grandmother also said that Uncle Lu has someone in his heart. He didn't marry for more than ten years because of that girl. How could he change his mind just after meeting our mother?"

Ye Mei said, "You think too much."

"It seems... that's the reason?" The

more Ye Qingyue listened, the more it seemed to be the case. She was really overthinking... right?

However, this little episode made Ye Qingyue couldn't help but care about it and secretly remember it in her heart.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Ye Qingyue's family also moved back to their own home from Jiang's house.

"A golden nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse!" Ye Qingyue sighed.

"You dare to call such a big house a doghouse? It's really outrageous."

As soon as Ye Mei entered the door, she picked up a broom and began to sweep the snow piled in the yard, making a path for people to walk.

The neighbors helped to shovel the snow outside the house.

Neighbors these days are still quite enthusiastic. They would not just sweep the snow in front of their own houses. Perhaps they found that no one was at Ye Qingyue's house these days, so they helped to clean it up. When

Ye Xianghong came back and saw that the door of the house was so clean, she went into the kitchen to pack some fried dumplings and peach cakes, and went to knock on the door of the neighbor next door to thank him.

Several children quickly swept out the bluestone road in the yard, and as for the rest, they would do it after packing their luggage.

The family had just finished their work when a deep voice came from outside, "Doctor Ye, are you home?"

This voice...

Ye Qingyue raised her eyebrows, finally she was waiting for someone.

She shouted, "Mr. Hong, I'm here!"

As she said that, she walked towards the gate.

"Qingyue, who is this?"

Ye Xianghong poked her head out of the kitchen. "Are you coming to see me again during the Chinese New Year?"

"No."

Ye Qingyue explained, "His wife was a patient I cured before, and they agreed to come and pay New Year's greetings."

After a pause, she added, "The 30,000 yuan we used to buy the house was given by him."

Ye Xianghong heard this and said, "Then let's invite him to dinner."

Ye Qingyue also had the same idea and nodded, "Okay."

She went to open the door, and Hong Tiansheng's family was standing outside.

The weather was too cold, and Hong Tiansheng was worried that Luo Youfu would fall, so he got a wheelchair and wrapped her in a thick coat, a woolen hat and a scarf, wrapping her up tightly.

Hong Xin was standing aside, holding some New Year gifts in her hands. When she saw Ye Qingyue, she smiled, "Doctor Ye, Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year."

Ye Qingyue welcomed them in with a smile, "You came at the right time. I just returned home. I stayed at my grandmother's house for the past few days."

She added, "It's almost noon. My mother said to keep you at home for a simple meal. Are there any dietary restrictions?"

"How can I say that?"

Hong Tiansheng exchanged a few

polite words with Ye Qingyue, then nodded in agreement, "Except for Youfu who has to pay attention to his diet, Xinxin and I are not picky." "I'll go talk to my mother and ask her to make some light dishes."

Ye Qingyue welcomed them into the house and asked Ye Feng to make tea. She went to the kitchen and said a few words to Ye Xianghong and Ye Mei.

"Okay, we have ready-made ingredients at home, it's easy."

When Ye Xianghong came back, Li Qi was reluctant to leave, and asked her family to pack a lot of vegetables and fresh meat for them, which was just right for entertaining Hong Tiansheng's family.

After giving her mother a few words of advice, Ye Qingyue returned to the living room.

Luo Youfu was talking to Ye Feng. Hearing that Ye Feng used to study at home due to his frail health, and only recently recovered his health and was able to go to school at the beginning of the year, he couldn't help but sigh: "I have lived for most of my life before I realized that health is more important than anything else. You have suffered so much at such a young age..."

"But there is an old saying that goes, the bitterness and sweetness of a person's life are predetermined. If you had too much sweetness before, you will inevitably suffer in the future."

Luo Youfu changed the subject and said to Ye Feng with a smile: "You have suffered too much in the past, and in the future, you will finally get sweetness."

"Thank you, Grandma Luo."

Ye Feng said softly, "You will also get sweetness after suffering."

"Oh, this child is really sweet-mouthed, and what he says is pleasant to hear."

Luo Youfu smiled and took out a red envelope from his arms and stuffed it into Ye Feng's hand.

Ye Feng was embarrassed to accept it, so she pretended to be weak and said something like "Don't push my hand, I feel uncomfortable". Taking advantage of Ye Feng's fear of pulling her hand away, she stuffed the red envelope into Ye Feng's pocket.

Seeing that her younger brother was being teased by Luo Youfu, Ye Qingyue stepped forward and smiled and asked Ye Feng to say thank you to Luo Youfu.

As a result, she turned around and was shoved in front of her by Luo Youfu's thick red envelope.

"Everyone who sees it gets a share."

Luo Youfu stuffed the red envelope into Ye Qingyue's hand.

Ye Qingyue was caught off guard and had no time to refuse. She simply accepted it and said, "Thank you, Grandma Luo."

After she finished speaking, another red envelope was handed over. She looked up and saw Hong Xin's eyes under the gauze scarf, with a smile, "I have one here too."

Ye Qingyue was stunned, hiding the complexity in her heart, and took it with a smile, "Thank you, Aunt Hong."

"I remember that Dr. Ye, your family has three children?"

Hong Xin asked, "What about the other one?"

"My eldest sister? She's helping in the kitchen."

Ye Qingyue said, "They will be busy there for a while, and there is nothing to do sitting in the house. How about I take you around the house?"
