He agreed to pick her up tomorrow morning and take them to the department store, and then Lu Yichen would go back to the bureau to work.
He walked Luo Qiao to the gate, watched her go in, and then turned and left.
When Luo Qiao entered the yard, she saw her grandfather standing in the yard arranging things on the windowsill: "Grandpa, I'm back."
Luo Daoren put his things away and said with a smile, "Come into the house and warm up."
Zhou Guifang was just coming out when she heard Luo Qiao's words: "Qiaoqiao, you're back."
"Well, grandma, I'm back. Did my second brother call?"
Luo Xuyuan, who was being talked about by Luo Qiao, had just left the Xiao family. He did not live in Xiao Ya's house. When he left, he took the key given to him by Luo Qiao and lived in Luo Qiao's yard in Ji City. Luo Qiao called in advance and asked someone to pack up the house, so he could just move in with his luggage.
These past two days, he had been drinking with Xiao Ya's aunts and uncles every day. The enthusiasm of these relatives was a little overwhelming for him.
Fortunately, Xiao's parents relented today, and the two families will meet on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month. He plans to go to the public phone at the entrance of the alley and call home.
As soon as Luo Qiao finished asking, the phone rang. Luo Xuyan in the room picked up the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
"Brother, it's me, Xuyuan."
"Xuyuan, how about it, does Xiaoya's family agree?"
"It's OK, big brother. Where are grandpa and grandma?"
"Wait a minute."
Luo Xuyan put the phone down, stood up and walked to the door, shouting as he walked: "Grandpa, grandma, Xuyuan's call."
Zhou Guifang was the first to enter the living room and picked up the phone: "Hello, Xuyuan."
"Grandma, I'm here."
"How's it going? Is there any news from the Xiao family?"
"Grandma, the Xiao family said they would have the family come over for a meeting the day after tomorrow. How do you think we can arrange it?"
After hanging up the phone, Zhou Guifang told the whole story. The final result was that she would take the bus at around 4:00 p.m. tomorrow, prepare her things during the day, and have a good sleep at night.
After the matter was settled, he quickly called Luo Haotian and asked him to take a day off tomorrow and make the trip, so as to avoid letting the Xiao family think that they did not take it seriously enough.
When Luo Haotian received the call, he knew that his second son wanted to meet his parents, so he quickly agreed and agreed to meet at the train station tomorrow.
The eldest brother has already gone on vacation, and the eldest sister-in-law is helping to take care of the third sister-in-law and the twins, so there is no big problem. So Luo Qiao called her cousin-in-law and asked him to book four train tickets to Ji City at around 4 o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
The next day, after breakfast, Luo Xuyan went out at the repeated instructions of his grandparents to buy gifts to take to Ji City.
Luo Qiao left with Lu Yichen who came to pick her up, and promised that he would come back early to pick them up at the train station.
He went to Gu's house to pick up Shi Tou and Bai Taifeng, and walked to the department store together. After sending them off, Lu Yichen gave them a few words of instruction before leaving for work.
As soon as the department store opened, Luo Qiao took the two of them to buy some autumn clothes and autumn trousers. Shitou had grown taller recently, so he had to prepare two sets. Then they went to buy sweaters. Shitou was sensible and did not ask for more. He only bought one, saying that his previous ones could still be worn, so he just bought one to wear during the New Year.
Bai Taifeng felt a little embarrassed and thought about buying one set to swap, but Luo Qiao disagreed. She thought that she had to prepare two more sets to swap, and also bought two pairs of shoes. Luo Qiao thought that since she had taken the child back, she had to treat him well.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
After shopping, Luo Qiao took them to a newly opened cake shop not far from the department store and ordered a few cream cakes before preparing to take them back home.
But when they were leaving the cake shop, they passed by a couple. Shi Tou suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look at the man who had just entered, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
Luo Qiao noticed that something was wrong with Shitou: "Shitou, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, maybe I recognized the wrong person."
Luo Qiao turned around and glanced at the store, but didn't take it seriously. She just said, "Let's go home. Auntie said she would make delicious food to reward us today."
Ning Ziping inside seemed to sense something and looked out the door, only to see three figures walking away.
