Reincarnation in the 60s: My Spatial Supermarket Brings Forth Wealth-Chapter 249: New Year’s Visit
Next up were the two brothers, they stood up together. Being boys, they weren’t as sentimental as the two sisters, so they toasted the eldest sister and then sat down.
When it was Lin Shuang’s turn, as soon as the little girl stood up, her eyes were already red.
"Eldest sister, to me, you are like someone who has given me a second life. If it weren’t for you bringing me home that day, giving me food, and providing me such a warm family, I might have died under that tree long ago. I still can’t forget how things were back then, and the taste of that steamed bun!" Lin Shuang said, choking up.
"Xiao Shuang, don’t cry during the New Year! Everything is our destiny! You should be part of our family! If our siblings love each other and respect our parents, and if we can achieve something, that’s the best repayment for the eldest sister!" Lin Xue was also moved; it’s rare for such a small child to understand gratitude. In addition, she lost her parents at a young age, wandered outside, was rejected by relatives, yet her heart didn’t become twisted, which was really admirable.
"Alright, Xiao Shuang, don’t cry, even the third sister is feeling bad for you. Hurry and sit down, with such a large table of delicious food made by the eldest sister, you still have the mood to cry? The third sister is truly impressed!" Lin Xia tried to ease the atmosphere after Xiao Shuang finished the toast, wondering what there is to cry about during the New Year.
"Indeed! Third sister’s cooking is delicious too! Your braised pork truly carries the eldest sister’s legacy!" Xiao Shuang quickly wiped her tears and said with a smile.
"Aren’t you still praising the eldest sister?" Lin Xia figured it out and the sisters burst into laughter.
At this moment, at the table of elders, Wang Yongsheng came over, pulled a chair and sat next to Lin Xue, pushing Lin Shan aside a bit.
"Xiao Xue, I also thank you. If it weren’t for you, without this job, your uncle’s marriage prospects would still be up in the air. Today, your uncle is about to become a father, all thanks to you! In the future, your uncle won’t forget your kindness!"
"Uncle, you’re being too polite. You are my dear uncle, my mom’s only brother, and my favorite uncle, so you’re family! Helping you was only right and proper! Besides, you and aunt were destined to be together, even without me, you’d surely end up together!" Lin Xue stood up and clinked glasses with Wang Yongsheng. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Finally, she went around the elders’ table to clink glasses. They weren’t drinking wine, and after Lin Xue made her rounds, almost everyone was drunk.
Lin Xue pretended to be drunk too, left the table, and returned to her room.
Leaving the little ones to clean up the aftermath, they had to take care of the drunk people, clear the table, and wash dishes, busy until late before they could rest.
However, none of them were in the mood to sleep; they gathered together to chat and play cards.
Lin Xue returned to her room, locked the door, and entered the space, where Zhang Yuan was already waiting.
The two sat together warmly, initially planning to have New Year’s dinner together, but Lin Xue was stuffed and Zhang Yuan hadn’t eaten less either, so they simply sat together, talking and chatting.
They almost got carried away in the end, although Lin Xue was willing, Zhang Yuan said he wanted to leave her a beautiful memory and wanted to wait until their wedding day.
He said he couldn’t wait anymore, the three-year promise was becoming too impatient.
Lin Xue protested it was still early, wanting to wait until she was in college.
And Zhang Yuan bit her on the neck, scaring her into finding a turtleneck sweater to put on.
Although they both knew this was done by the dog-like Zhang Yuan, others and even the little ones didn’t know!
If they saw it, what would they think? Would Xiao Shan write to tell Zhang Yuan? It would be quite a joke.
The two stayed in the space until dawn before leaving to sleep.
Lin Xue woke up around nine in the morning, still feeling a bit sleepy and dazed.
"Eldest sister, get up for breakfast! Everyone’s here, just waiting for you! Dad and uncle have already finished breakfast and went to work! You’re still asleep!" Lin Xia banged on the door.
"Alright, alright, stop knocking, I’m getting up!" Lin Xue shouted covering her ears, finally stopping Lin Xia’s knocking.
"You weren’t drunk, sleeping all alone secretly, are you missing your brother-in-law, and embarrassed to cry in front of us?" Lin Xia said maliciously with a teasing grin at the door.
"Say one more word and I’ll dig out your secret stash and divide it!" Lin Xue threw a pillow out threateningly.
"Okay, okay, I won’t say anything more, lest you get angry!" Lin Xia hurriedly ran away.
She ran off, leaving Lin Xue alone, blushing, dazing on the bed.
Thinking of Zhang Yuan’s audacity last night made her blush.
Though they said they would wait until marriage, he had seen and touched everything, leaving only one barrier for marriage.
This made her feel even more uncomfortable and shy, he even grabbed her hand to...
Can’t think can’t think, thinking about it makes her blood surge, it’s unbearable.
Hurry to get up, wash her face with cold water to sober up.
And sadly, Wang Cuihua saw it.
She kept asking if she had caught a cold? Had a fever, why was her face so red and hot? Why wash her face with cold water?
The questions drew everyone’s attention to her.
She finally found an excuse to brush it off and looked at the dumplings, congee, and pickles on the table.
Her appetite increased, breakfast like this was so delicious.
After last night’s feast, having a bowl of warm congee with pickles in the morning was truly delightful, and also with spicy cabbage.
The whole family ate with relish, and just after finishing, without having time to clear the table, the second uncle’s family arrived.
Bai Dajiang didn’t work today and brought his wife and kids to visit for New Year’s.
All five people were carrying something.
There were two cans, two bottles of alcohol, two packets of tea, and two packets of cookies, altogether four kinds of gifts.
Though in Lin Xue and her family’s eyes these gifts weren’t much, maybe the little ones were a bit fed up, but for the second uncle’s family, these were certainly the best gifts they could offer.
Although life had improved a lot since the second uncle started working, Grandma Bai couldn’t swindle from Lin Xue’s family anymore, so she targeted the second uncle’s family, trying every means to take things and money from them, they weren’t having an easy time either.
After inviting them in, Lin Xue went to make five cups of warm milk tea.
With the snow blocking the land, the cold was unbearable, though they borrowed an ox cart to come, it was still cold enough, drinking this warm milk tea was perfect.
It was milk tea powder she got from the supermarket, usually given to the little ones and even adults to drink.
The assistant could erase the packaging features, making it very convenient to serve.
"Second uncle, second aunt, Xiao Mei, Xiao Yue, Xiao Yang, quickly have some warm tea to warm up!" Lin Xue called to the family.
"Thank you, eldest sister!" Bai Ruyue sweetly thanked.
Bai Ruyang also followed with thanks, only Bai Rumei kept her head down, just nodding, without much expression.
It wasn’t coldness, it was a bit of detachment, the kind that isn’t interested in communicating with others.
"Xiao Xue, stop being busy, have a seat!" Second aunt Wu Zhaodi said, feeling a bit embarrassed, like her family was just causing trouble.
"Second sister-in-law! You also drink! Don’t be shy, Xiao Xue made this, it’s very tasty!" Wang Cuihua sat beside Wu Zhaodi, and seeing her mom start the conversation, Lin Xue found it easier since they were of similar age, so she didn’t interfere much, leading her sisters to prepare lunch.
