Everyone looked surprised and began to ask, "What do you mean you know something? Why haven't I heard you tell me about it?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, she also twisted his body, specifically choosing the fleshy parts and twisting them with great force. Lai Minghua grimaced in pain.
Regardless of Lai Minghua's pain, Xiao Yu began to scold him mercilessly, "You knew why you didn't come back to tell your parents? Don't you know they are very concerned about your cousin? Others will hear about this, and you, as her cousin, must have known it first but didn't say it.
What if my cousin meets the wrong person? She is very smart but simple-minded. She doesn’t understand the ins and outs of the world. Handsome gay men are even more slick and deceptive.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu got angry. He liked his cousin Song Zhiyao very much. Every time she came to his house, he had to be very polite to her. He could tell what her personality was like after chatting with her.
He felt that his innocent cousin had been deceived, and now he wanted to take it out on Lai Minghua in a hurry.
When the others saw this scene, they lowered their heads and laughed, thinking that Lai Minghua deserved it. Why didn't he tell them if he knew about this?
Seeing his wife so excited, the expressions of the others were also as if that was how it should be. Lai Minghua had no words to express his grievances. After a while, he saw Xiao Yu calm down.
He explained with a joking smile, "I can be sure that my cousin has no relationship with that gay man. They are not a couple as you think. From what they call each other, they are senior and junior brothers and sisters.
That gay man is interested in my cousin, but Zhiyao didn't understand. She looked at him the same way she looked at other people. I think he is just an ordinary suitor here, and I didn't tell you."
After hearing what he said, everyone knew that they had wronged him. Xiao Yu looked even more embarrassed. He wanted to say something but didn't know where to start.
Fortunately, Lai Minghua was understanding and said, "Wife, you don't have to be embarrassed. You are also worried that your cousin will be cheated. It's also my fault that I didn't tell you in advance."
His words resolved the awkwardness. Lai Tingting also breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she was right to confront that person that day.
Huang Li patted her legs and said excitedly, "There must be a lot of gay men around our Zhiyao who are interested in her. Just because two people chat and laugh together doesn't mean they are in a relationship. Tingting, you were right that day.
Next time someone says this, you guys should fight back. Zhiyao didn't say she has a boyfriend, so that means she doesn't. This is not a feudal society where you can't talk and laugh with gay men."
Everyone agreed with what she said.
Lai Yanping also expressed his opinion at this time, "Zhiyao is a very independent girl. Don't ask her about this matter later. Just pretend you know nothing."
Asking would only make the atmosphere awkward. Even if Song Zhiyao really has a partner, she won't tell them. They will just think that they are worrying about nothing and like to meddle in her affairs.
In the past, men and women had to keep their distance when they came into contact, and they would be criticized if they talked or laughed. But now it is different. The times are different, and young people’s ideas are even more different. We can’t always impose our ideas on them.
Lai Yanling, as a mother, believes whatever Song Zhiyao says. Sometimes she wonders what kind of son-in-law her daughter will find. She felt a little excited when she heard Lai Tingting's words just now.
This time, after hearing the whole story, she calmed down. Her eldest brother's words made Lai Yanling have no other ideas. Let her eldest daughter make the decision herself.
Finally, they started talking about other things. Lai Tingting's parents-in-law just kept feeding everyone and didn't say any extra gossip.
It has been a long time since we sat down and chatted together, so it was nice to just chat about this and that. After they chatted for a while, Song Zhiyao and the others came back.
After they sat down, they began to greet their elders, and then started to eat. They were hungry after running for so long.
The same goes for Lai Wenjun and Deng Xiaowen. The two brothers would sit next to Song Zhiyao and eat whatever she was eating. Their follow-me-down actions made everyone laugh.
Even though they knew that they were being laughed at, they pretended not to notice and even competed for Song Zhiyao's attention and favor.
Lai Wenjun was a little older and had a better observation ability. He saw Song Zhiyao pick up some dried tofu several times. Whenever he saw dried tofu, he would put it in front of her and said, "Aunt, you eat it."
Song Zhiyao was also very surprised when she saw this. This little guy actually realized that she liked to eat dried tofu so quickly. She touched his head and said, "Wenjun is so good. Auntie can pick up the food and eat it by yourself."
Deng Xiaowen was not willing to be outdone, and quickly picked up the chicken gizzards beside him and said, "Aunt, eat!"
After finishing it, he looked as if he wanted to be praised, which made everyone laugh.
As her son was courting Song Zhiyao, Xiao Yu smiled and pretended to be jealous, "Oh, even a mother like me doesn't get this kind of treatment. Zhiyao really envies you."
Lai Wenjun thought his mother was really angry, so he quickly picked up a chicken foot and placed it next to her.

"Mom, eat your chicken feet!"
After that, the two little guys took turns picking up something and put it next to Song Zhiyao, and soon the place was filled with the things they had picked up.
Lai Tingting said directly, "Sister-in-law, our two sons were born in vain. They have never been so enthusiastic towards us. Every time they see Zhiyao, they like to squeeze next to her. Even if they don't see her at other times, they always talk about her."
Xiao Yu also nodded in agreement.
Lai Tingting said this without any jealousy, but she was still very emotional. These two children liked Song Zhiyao so much, which was something she had never expected.
Song Zhiyao also knew that her cousin had no intention of being jealous. Looking at the two little nephews beside her, the expression on her face was as gentle as water. Children's feelings are the most intuitive, and they will go to whoever they like.
What’s more important is that their cousin’s wife and cousin taught them very well. They just ran along with them for such a long distance and they were not spoiled. They knew they were not yet able to play with kites and they didn’t force them to play with them.
It's easy to bring them around, just talk to them. "Wenjun and Xiaowen are very well behaved. They know I'm their elder and they've never met me before, so they're naturally more enthusiastic. The most important thing is that my cousin's wife and cousin taught them well."
No one disagreed with Song Zhiyao's words. They were not bragging, but these two children were more sensible than other children of the same age. They were naughty and playful, but they were very polite when facing elders, whether they were familiar or not.
Afterwards, the two little guys were all laughing and playing funny.
Song Zhiyao and the others were enjoying a wonderful picnic. Qin Hanchen, who was far away in the capital, finally finished writing and sent the letter. He felt very nervous right after sending it and kept thinking about all sorts of things.
