MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 562 reunion night
“Is the news accurate?”
"Of course, when I heard it, I thought it was a bit exaggerated and I went to Osmanthus Alley to have a look. Now the people in your room have long since disappeared. The people who come out are all unfamiliar faces. They must be new households. .”
The Ling family's father looked serious when he said this. They knew Shang Qiniang's origins very well, so they paid special attention to it on weekdays.
But it was the New Year, and there were already a lot of things going on, so by the time they found out, the fifth house had long been gone, and their whereabouts were unknown, so the Ling family's father hurried back to tell her the news.
I don’t know why, Shang Qiniang felt a little scared.
Firstly, she was afraid that her identity would be exposed and cause unnecessary trouble. Secondly, she was afraid that someone was behind Wufang's disappearance. If that person wanted to eradicate the root cause, wouldn't she be in danger?
So, I held my daughter in my arms and said with some anxiety.
“Father, let’s go outside and find some capable people to look after the home and take care of the home, just in case anything happens.”
After hearing what she said, the father of the Ling family felt that it made sense and hurried out the door.
It’s not easy to find people at the end of the year, so the price is naturally more expensive, but it’s not a big deal. As long as Qiniang and Baoer can be protected well, the Ling family will have a steady stream of money. He will still be calculating in this idea of buying and selling. of.
It’s New Year’s Eve again.
The General's Mansion is a bit deserted this year, but the Du family is lively.
Of course, Gu Shaoyu had not returned from Wangzhou, so Du Jingyi took his children back to Du's house to celebrate the New Year. The two elders of the He family in Pingzhou also arrived. Since the new house still needed some repairs, they stayed at Du's house temporarily.
He Shilin today is different from when Du Jingyi saw him two or three months ago. His whole person seemed to have been reborn, exuding a sense of prosperity.
He returned from Xuanzhou in a snowstorm. This time he could have half a month's leave, and after that he would go back to take up his post. He originally thought that Du Jingxiang would go with him, but his wife was pregnant, so he had to go back alone.
But even so, he was happy from the bottom of his heart.
When people reach middle age, happy events come one after another, which can refresh anyone's mind, so Du Jingyi said jokingly.
“Brother-in-law looks a few years younger now, and his complexion is much better. It seems that the errand in Xuanzhou is really good.”
"I have to thank my sister and brother Xing Zhao for helping me with the work. My colleagues in Xuanzhou are very kind and polite, and they are also people who do practical things, so I learned a lot from them. Naturally, people also have to It’s better to be humble.”
After hearing this, the two elders of the He family sincerely wanted to thank Du Jingyi.
After all, they have been active in Pingzhou for many years and have given away a lot of money, but their son's future can still be seen at a glance, especially the master of the He family, said with a sigh.
"It's all because of our short-sightedness. We always thought about letting Shilin go back to Pingzhou so that everyone could take care of us. Unexpectedly, it delayed the child's future. If the couple hadn't come back with the child this time, I'm afraid they would still be there. There is no such good opportunity.”
After speaking, he raised the wine glass in front of him and toasted to the Du family and Du Jingyi.
"We, the He family, are able to marry you because we were blessed in our previous life. If this child Shilin dares to be unfilial to you in the future, I will punish him with a big stick!"
"Oh, what did the father-in-law say when he was having a big festival? Besides, how could Shilin be unfilial? He was kind to us. It is right for a family to live together and help each other."
The parents on both sides are open-minded people, so after a few glasses of warm wine, the taste of the New Year's Eve dinner becomes even more delicious. There are six children in total, so we opened a separate table next to them.
They are all half-year-old children. They eat in a well-behaved manner without making any noise. Their meals are specially prepared according to the children's tastes and include everything they like.
From time to time, Brother Tai would think of serving food to everyone, and he was considered a careful person. Brother Wen ate more roughly, but he was originally the tallest among the three brothers, so he ate more and also normal.
After dinner, the year is already half over, and the children are waiting to kowtow to the elderly and get lucky money.
According to age, the first-class people stood up. The two elders of the Du family and the two elders of the He family sat at the head. Du Jingxiang and his wife and Du Jingyi sat on both sides. The children kowtowed in turn, and soon received a full red envelope.
Wen Geer has a festive appearance and looks similar to Mr. Du. Now that he has received the New Year's money, he smiles just like Mr. Du. Naturally, Mrs. Du couldn't help but pinch his chubby cheeks. Then he said.
“Sometimes I wonder what the master looked like when he was a child. Now I can tell by looking at Brother Wen, but he must not have been as fat as Brother Wen when he was a child!”
Mr. Du looked up and down and nodded kindly.
But when Brother Wen heard this, he was a little unhappy, so he came to Mrs. Du and said.
“Grandma is wrong, Brother Wen is not fat, he is strong, thick and healthy!”
His childish talk made everyone present laugh, so Mrs. Du took him into her arms and said.
“Okay, okay, you’re right!”
The family had a lively and comfortable New Year.
Thousands of miles away, Wangzhou.
In the Huben Army camp, Huotou Army arranged a dumpling banquet for everyone today. They set up more than a dozen large pots in the army. The dumplings went down and floated up after a while.
They are all strong men and naturally have good appetites.
So the gang members were making a steady stream of dumplings while making them, and the whole military camp was very lively.
After an absence of many years, Xing Zhao once again celebrated the Chinese New Year in the military camp. He was indescribably excited. Therefore, he was like a monkey wandering around, looking here and there. There was no trace that he was past his thirties. The men are just like those new recruits who just entered the military camp.
Ni Yang saw it and said to Gu Shaoyu.
"General, you should take care of this kid Xing Zhao. I originally asked Lao Xue to practice for him, but he cried. Who knows what kind of steel and iron bones he has become? The more he practices, the more energetic he becomes, and he is even faster than when he first came here." , even the new recruits also practiced like crazy with him, and they turned out to be scarier than Xiao Mu and the others before."
Gu Shaoyu picked up the wine bowl and drank a bowl. His whole body became hot. No matter how heavy the wind and snow in Wangzhou seemed to be, it didn't matter at this moment.
“He is much smarter than you. Look how much these recruits admire him now. Just watch, he will definitely get the most heads when the army is divided in March next year.”
Ni Yang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and when he looked at Xing Zhao, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth!
