There is strength in numbers, and with division of labor and cooperation, lunch was quickly served on the table.
When Luo Qiao arrived at the living room, she heard her aunt on the phone. It seemed like she was calling from her mother's family, and she felt a little embarrassed.
After putting down the things in her hands, she called her grandparents into the house and handed each of them a big red envelope: "Grandpa, grandma, this is a gift from your granddaughter to you, don't refuse it."
Zhou Guifang knew it was useless to refuse, so she smiled and said, "Grandma doesn't have a daughter, but she has the blessing of a granddaughter."
Luo Daoren looked at the red envelope in his hand and said, "We don't lack anything now. You have prepared everything for us. We can't spend this money even if we keep it in our hands."
Luo Qiao smiled and said, "Then save it. It will be useful in case something happens. I will be leaving in a few days, so I will feel at ease leaving some money for you to rely on."
Seeing that they had accepted it, she spoke again: "Grandpa, grandma, I've thought about it, and we should plan to come back on the third day of the New Year to get together. After all, there are only my cousins and I at home, but my aunt, my younger aunt, and my sisters-in-law are embarrassed to leave on the second day of the New Year. I just heard my aunt's family call."
The old couple looked at each other, and Zhou Guifang nodded: "Okay, I'll tell everyone later. This is what a family should do, tolerate each other."
After Zhou Guifang came out, she told Luo Jialin and Zheng Zhiyuan in advance. After they had no objection, she asked everyone to wash their hands and prepare for dinner.
After everyone was seated, Luo Daoren raised his glass first: "A new year has begun. I hope everyone can be safe and happy this year, and all their wishes will come true. Come on, cheers."
After everyone put down their cups, Zhou Guifang said, "I have something to tell you. Qiaoqiao just made a suggestion, saying that we should not let the two married girls, Jialin and her, affect the eldest aunt, younger aunt and sisters-in-law from returning to their parents' home on the second day of the New Year.
I just told Jialin and Zhiyuan that when Jiayue gets married in the future, she should also follow this rule and come back on the third day of the New Year to gather together, so that everyone can stagger their schedules. "
After hearing this, Song Shiya knew that her niece must have heard her phone call just now. She looked at Luo Qiao with gratitude and smiled.
There are many brothers and sisters in their family. In the past, she would go back to her parents' home on the second day of the Chinese New Year. After Jialin got married, she would go back to her parents' home with her on the second day of the Chinese New Year. But after her niece got married, it was not convenient for her to leave on the second day of the Chinese New Year.
Today, her younger sister called her and blamed her a little, which really made her feel embarrassed. She didn't expect that her niece could solve the problem so quickly. It really warmed her heart.
After finishing their meal and cleaning up, after their uncle and uncle's families left, the brothers and sisters drove to their uncle's house. Now it was just like a formality, and they always felt that the feelings had faded a little.
After coming out, the eldest brother and his wife took their little nephew back to their parents-in-law's house. The fourth brother and his wife also drove back to the compound to see Grandpa Geng. Luo Qiao drove the third sister-in-law and a pair of nephews and nieces to Zhou's house.
I went in and said hello before leaving. Of course, I didn't come empty-handed in the first month of the year. I brought two bags of premium tea that I had collected.
After leaving the third sister-in-law's parents' home, the family returned to the Gu family. The reason why Luo Qiao suggested to her grandmother that they go back to her parents' home on the third day of the New Year was so as not to affect her aunt, aunt, and sisters-in-law from returning to their parents' homes, and also so that she could receive her sister-in-law on the second day of the New Year.
Hello, I'm fine, everyone is fine.
Luo Qiao asked with a smile: "What did you say about us?"
The eldest sister-in-law, Wang Xiaoxin, came over from the backyard and answered, "He must be saying good things about you."
Everyone went into the living room laughing and joking.
Gu Kairong looked at Luo Qiao and said, "I heard from your grandpa that you will go abroad after the 15th?"
Luo Qiao nodded: "Yes, uncle."
Gu Kairong's face turned serious and he glanced at the old man.
Mr. Gu stood up from the sofa and said, "Yixuan, Yichen, Luo Qiao, come with your uncle."
Luo Qiao glanced at Lu Yichen and thought it must be because of the Jun family’s matter.
After they entered the study, Mr. Gu said, "Sit down."
Gu Kairong got straight to the point: "Luo Qiao, half of the reason you went there this time was because of the Jun family, right?"
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Luo Qiao nodded, and her expression became serious: "Yes, uncle, grandpa said before that revenge will never end, and we think it is right. It was the Jun family who wanted to kill for money, but the Jun family was not happy, and they also wanted to attack my child, which I cannot tolerate.
If I hadn't arranged people in advance, and if I hadn't been quite skilled in martial arts, my mother and I would have met each other in the underworld by now. So the Jun family must be eliminated. I don't want to leave any trouble for my daughters.
This was originally a matter between the Huang family and the Jun family, but it has turned into a matter between the Gu and Lu families and the Jun family. They should never have thought of hurting my child, so the Huang family’s revenge will be avenged by me, the granddaughter-in-law whom my grandmother has never met.”
Gu Kairong said, "Do you know how powerful the Jun family is overseas?"
Luo Qiao nodded: "Yi Chen has been having people investigate, and I have been reading the news. Uncle, I know what you are worried about, but the Jun family blamed us for Jun Zhenlin's incident. Of course, this is indeed related to us, and I don't deny it.
But if they hadn't planned it first, we wouldn't have been able to follow the clues. So it's not that I want to make this grudge, but they insist on it. We have no way out, and I must protect my child.
As the old saying goes, 'A thief can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can never be a thief for a thousand days. I don't want to take risks with my child, so I have no choice.'
