Upon receiving the news that Xiao Biyun was pregnant, Lu Yuan was eager to return home.
No one knows how envious Yu Shaoheng was when he heard that his mother was going to have a younger brother or sister for him.
His experience as an orphan in his past life made him crave family affection from a young age.
When the children in the village fought chickens, walked dogs, or got into brawls, they all had brothers and sisters together. But he was always all alone. Back then, he longed to have brothers and sisters, even more than he longed to have parents.
He is about to have his own younger brother or sister, and this experience is both novel and exciting.
"Honey, let's pack our things. We'll go home after Dongzi and Yuanchao arrive and rest for the night."
“Okay,” Wen Moxue replied.
Hearing that Lu Yuan and his wife were leaving, the Zhong brothers from the textile factory sent them two bags of local specialties from Hangzhou and also mentioned that they wanted some New Year's goods.
With two months to go before the Lunar New Year, Lu Yuan didn't immediately agree, saying he would see how things went after he returned home.
After seeing off the Zhong brothers, three unexpected guests arrived.
"Deputy Director Yan, what brings you here? Please come in!"
Yan Keqin was also carrying two large bags of Hangzhou specialties.
“I ran into your uncle today and heard that you’re going back to your hometown soon, so Tingting went to buy some local specialties for you to take back to your family to try.”
"You're too kind, you've gone to so much trouble."
Lu Yuan knew that their main purpose in coming was definitely not to bring local specialties, but to get his wife to show them her good looks.
Before anyone could even bring it up, he took the initiative to call her "wife".
Wen Moxue examined her face and said with a smile, "Yuting's face has improved a lot. She should still have the scar removal cream, right? Keep applying it, and it should be completely healed by the New Year."
The Yan family of three were very happy. Although Wen Moxue had told them before that they could recover, they felt uneasy until they came to confirm it.
After expressing their deepest gratitude, the family of three left. Before leaving, Yan Yuting asked Wen Moxue for her contact information. She was very grateful to Wen Moxue and admired her greatly, hoping to stay in touch in the future.
Wen Muxue had a good impression of her and gave her her address and phone number.
Two days later, Xu Dong and Lu Yuanchao arrived in Hangzhou. Lu Yuan told them to stay in the small courtyard, but they went to the family compound to find someone only after they had settled in at the guesthouse.
Since they had already settled in, Lu Yuan didn't insist.
Is everything alright at home?
"Everything's great, Brother Yuan, several pieces of good news!" Lu Yuanchao said, glancing at Xu Dong with a teasing look.
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow. He knew his mother was pregnant, but what other happy event was there?
"Several happy events?"
This indicates that there are more than one or two items.
Lu Yuanchao grinned, "I won't go into what happened to my aunt, you probably already know. Also, He Shenghua is going to be a father."
"Wow, that's fast! You're going to be a father just two months after getting married. That's definitely a happy occasion. What else?"
"Also, our brigade's pig farm has been built, and we're just waiting for you to go back and get the feed so the piglets can be put into the pens."
"Yes, this is a great event for the village."
"There's one last piece of good news..."
At this point, Lu Yuanchao deliberately dragged out the last syllable, looking at Xu Dong with a smile, "I think Dongzi should tell you this last piece of great news himself."
Lu Yuan smiled and looked at Xu Dong, "So this last piece of good news is related to Dongzi?"
Xu Dong coughed lightly, a little embarrassed, and scratched his head. "Brother Yuan, whether this is a happy occasion or not depends on you."
"Oh? How did this involve me?" Lu Yuan asked, puzzled.
Xu Dong: "Well, I want to date Xiaoqin. She said she needs to ask for your opinion first. If you don't object, she'll agree."
"What? You and Lu Xiaoqin?"
Lu Yuan was genuinely surprised. When did Xu Dong and Lu Xiaoqin start their relationship? How come he hadn't noticed anything amiss?
"No, if you two want to be a couple, why do you need my permission?"
"Didn't Xiaoqin say you're her older brother? There aren't any other elders in the family, so as her older brother, you have to keep an eye on things for her."
Lu Yuan shrugged. "This is your own business. As long as you like it, that's fine. Besides, Lu Xiaoqin is an adult now, and she can decide her own affairs."
Another point is that although Lu Yuan takes good care of Lu Xiaoqin and her brother, he doesn't really treat them as his own siblings. He treats them better than others only because he thinks that they grew up under the same roof, and the key is that they are not like their parents, so there is still hope.
"Brother Yuan, you don't have any objections to saying this?"
Lu Yuan chuckled, "What opinion could I possibly have? As long as you like it."
Xu Dong grinned foolishly!
Lu Yuan said, "You still haven't told me how you two fell for each other."
It's not just women who love gossip; men are curious too.
“During the time my grandma was injured, she was the one who helped deliver meals and take care of her. My grandma praised her to me every day, and I also think she is capable. It would be great to have such a virtuous daughter-in-law in the family.”
Lu Yuan: "..."
Is this about finding a nanny or a wife, or is this just how love is in this day and age?
Lu Yuanchao nudged Xu Dong with his shoulder and teased, "Brother Yuan, don't listen to his nice words. Actually, he's just captivated by Xiaoqin's growing beauty."
Xu Dong blushed and stammered, "Xiao, Xiao Qin is pretty, but, but she's also capable."
Seeing how innocent he was, Lu Yuan laughed so hard he bent over.
"Haha, yes, yes, when looking for a wife, you should find one who is beautiful and capable."
Seeing Lu Yuan smiling so happily, Xu Dong was completely relieved. Brother Yuan really didn't mind him dating Xiao Qin.
Lu Yuan invited the two to stay at his home for dinner. That evening, Uncle Mo's family brought a lot of good meat and vegetables to the courtyard to bid them farewell, and also bought several large bags of local specialties for them, including some for Xu Dong and Lu Yuanchao.
