"Ai!"
Zhou's father and mother were all smiles. They took the tea from Xu Qingluo and drank it without saying a word, then handed the red envelope to Xu Qingluo.
"Here, this is the red envelope your parents gave you."
"Thank you, Mom and Dad."
Xu Qingluo took the red envelopes from the two elders with a smile. The red envelopes given to her by the four elders were all quite thick, and one could tell that the amount was not small just by touching it.
After serving tea, Zhou's mother stood up, walked over, took her hand, and began to introduce her family members.
"Xiao Luo, let me introduce you."
"This is your second uncle and second aunt."
Uncle Zhou Er was the Army Secretary of the Kyoto Military Region, and Aunt Zhou Er was the Director of the Propaganda Department of the Kyoto Iron and Steel Plant. They had three sons and one daughter, and all four children have started their own families.
"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."
Uncle Zhou Er and Aunt Zhou Er smiled and nodded, then praised her a few times: "Sister-in-law, you are so lucky. Look how beautiful Xiao Luo is."
Zhou's aunt praised her son Zhou Er. Mother Zhou was so happy to hear her brother and sister-in-law praising her, but she still remained humble and polite on the surface.
"No, no, your three daughters-in-law are all filial children. You are the lucky one."
After hearing what Zhou's mother said, Aunt Zhou's mouth corners lowered. Although it was only for a second, Xu Qingluo still caught the expression that flashed across Aunt Zhou's face.
After Grandpa Zhou and Grandma Zhou's father and Uncle Zhou got married and started their own families, they gave their families to Father Zhou and Uncle Zhou. So Xu Qingluo had no idea what the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was like in Uncle Zhou's family.
After all, the people in the compound value their reputation very much, and unless something extremely serious will cause a big uproar, basically, some family matters will not be known to outsiders.
Mother Zhou then pulled her aside to introduce the four children of Uncle Zhou's family. In terms of age, Xu Qingluo was the youngest, but according to seniority, everyone had to call her cousin.
"This is your eldest cousin, Zhou Yuze, who works in the Guangzhou Municipal Army."
Zhou Yuze is Zhou Ershu's eldest son. He is 29 years old and serves as the deputy head of a certain army unit in Guangzhou. His wife is the daughter of his army leader.
"This is your eldest cousin's wife, Chen Xiangyan. These three children are your eldest cousin's children."
Chen Xiangyan's father was the brigade commander of Zhou Yuze's army. His ancestors were from Xiangcheng. Chen Xiangyan was an elementary school teacher in Guangshi Primary School and had a pretty appearance.
She and Zhou Yuze met through a blind date group and had two sons and a daughter after marriage.
The eldest son (Zhou Zhiyuan) is 7 years old this year, the second daughter (Zhou Zhijia) is 5 years old this year, and the youngest son (Zhou Zhitian) is 3 years old this year.
"Cousin, hello, cousin."
Xu Qingluo greeted her with a smile, and Zhou Yuze and Chen Xiangyan also smiled and called her, "Hello, cousin."
"This is your second cousin Zhou Yuyun, serving in the Northwest Army, and this is your second cousin Liang Meiqin."
Zhou Yuyun is Zhou Shushu's second son. He is 27 years old and serves as a battalion commander in the Northwest Army. His wife Liang Meiqin is from Kyoto, and his father is the director of the Kyoto Coal Factory.
After they got married, they gave birth to two sons. The eldest son (Zhou Zhiming) is 5 years old this year, and the younger son (Zhou Zhiyu) is 2 years old this year.
Liang Meiqin did not join the army after her marriage because the conditions in the Northwest were too remote.
She was not someone who could endure hardship. After marriage, she lived with her two sons in her mother-in-law's house and worked as a clerk in the logistics department of a coal factory.
"Second cousin, second cousin."
"Hello, cousin."
The two men greeted her with a smile. Liang Meiqin took a look at the dress she was wearing and recognized it at a glance as a new model released by the Overseas Chinese Store. The price was not cheap at all.
