Chapter 318: The New Year

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

They had heard everything that these people had said just now. All of them had ideas about their family and even wanted to make things difficult for Grandma Liu. Why did Big Brother tell them everything? This was not like his usual personality.

Aunt Liu was listening at the side and didn’t have any intention of interrupting.

Qin Qingyan was a child with his own ideas, and she believed that he must have his reasons for doing so.

After hearing Qin Qingyan’s words, everyone present revealed a look of envy and jealousy, but at the same time, they also had a trace of expectation.

If their relationship with the Qin family got better in the future, would they be able to be like Madam Liu and get some good things from Madam Qin every three to five days?

“Aiyo, it’s really not bad. In our village, your family is the first to have the most sumptuous New Year’s Eve dinner. Aunt Liu and her husband are really lucky! I just don’t know if we’ll have the fortune to enjoy the New Year’s celebration.”

The aunt who had spoken the most directly just now walked forward and “flipped” the ingredients in the two baskets over and over again, wishing she could directly snatch the baskets over.

The meat was easy to get, but it was rare to get to eat a fish on a normal day, not to mention that there was a year-long festive event today.

“Aunt, you can ask my mother directly. I only brought my brother here to help Grandma Liu with her work. All the guests in our house were invited by Mother.”

Qin Qingyan’s words had kicked the ball to Mo Ruyue’s side, but none of the women present dared to say this to her.

All they could do was smile awkwardly, not knowing how to continue the conversation.

“Do you all want to stay and help? Our time is tight. It’s best to have the reunion dinner at night so that we can set off the firecrackers.”

Qin Qingyan looked like he wanted to keep them, but he was actually driving them away. When the other ladies heard this, their faces turned even uglier.

“Hehe, Qingyan, we just saw that Aunt Liu’s family only has two old people, and it’s quite lonely, so we came over to chat with her. If you have anything else to do, we’ll take our leave.”

They had also come to beg Madam Liu with thick skin, but now that they had hit two rejections from her and Qin Qingyan, no matter how unwilling they were, they could only leave temporarily.

“Then, aunts, please go. Qinghao and I won’t see you out.”

Although Qin Qingyan said that, he really stood still and had no intention of sending them off.

“Don’t send me off, don’t send me off. We all live in the same village. There’s no need to send me off. Let’s hurry up and leave. We’ll be busy when we get home.”

The few of them spoke in unison, but in the end, they still left resentfully.

“Qingyan, why are you here with Qinghao? Didn’t you say that Tang Tang was here?”

Madam Liu didn’t ask about how Qin Qingyan had told everything to those village women. She was more concerned about why the people who had come had suddenly changed.

“Tang Tang is here. Those prostitutes in your room just now are even more unwilling to leave. They might even bring her back to our house.”

Qin Qingyan couldn’t figure it out at first. His mother knew that he was not good at cooking. On the contrary, Tang Tang’s cooking skills were ranked behind his mother and Qinghao, so she should be the one to help. But now that he thought about it, he seemed to understand why his mother had made such an arrangement.

However, how did Mother know that such a thing would happen in Grandma Liu’s house? Could it be that she had super hearing and heard everything?

Qin Qingyan only thought about it for a moment before he quickly shook his head and got rid of this ridiculous thought.

Aunt Liu didn’t tell Mo Ruyue about this matter and Mo Ruyue didn’t take the initiative to ask.

By the time night had completely fallen, Mo Ruyue’s table was already filled with plates and bowls of all sizes. Dishes that looked, smelled, and tasted good were stacked on top of each other, dazzling people to the point where they didn’t know where to start.

Mo Ruyue had also specially prepared two kinds of wine for tonight. One was the white wine that she and the Liu couple drank together, and the other was fruit wine for the babies.

Although it was called fruit wine, it had actually reduced the alcohol content to the minimum after fermentation. It was just a new kind of fermented drink that tasted sour and sweet. Even the youngest Qin Qingwan could drink a small cup.

The Liu couple were allowed to sit on Mo Ruyue’s left and right. Uncle Liu sat on the right and Aunt Liu sat on the left.

The two of them were in the first and second guest seats. Clearly, Mo Ruyue was treating them as distinguished guests.

“Lady Qin, look at this. How can this be good? how can we sit here?” Aunt Liu said, a little embarrassed.

Although it wasn’t the first time the two of them had a meal with Mo Ruyue’s family, it was still the first time that they had a formal and important festival like the Spring Festival, and the meaning it represented was different.

“Why can’t you sit here?”

Mo Ruyue laughed and asked in return. She was the first to raise his glass and say, “This year, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu have helped me a lot to take care of the family and the babies. It’s only right for me to invite the two of you to sit at the head of the table.”

“I’ll first offer you a cup of wine to express my respect.”

“Lady Qin, you’re too polite. We’re neighbors, so we should take care of each other. Besides, we’ve also received a lot of care from you, so I don’t know how to thank you.”

The Liu couple also raised their glasses and replied with a smile. Then, the three of them drank the wine in one gulp.

“Come, come, come. Let’s eat. It’s the new year today, so we must all be happy. Next year will also be a healthy, happy, and peaceful year.”

Mo Ruyue raised her chopsticks and called for everyone to start eating. This sumptuous reunion dinner officially kicked off.

After a few glasses of wine, the Liu couple had completely integrated into the atmosphere of the family and no longer appeared so restrained.

The bowls in front of them were always full. The few babies were using the male chopsticks to serve them food, taking care of them even more carefully than Mo Ruyue.

“Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, I’m sincere about what I’ve mentioned to you before. The babies are also looking forward to your agreement, so I hope that you can consider it carefully.

Mo Ruyue picked up the wine pot again and filled the Liu couple’s glasses with wine. She also filled her own glass.

Even though she hadn’t even finished a single pot of wine, she was already feeling slightly tipsy. It was truly somewhat inconceivable.

“Lady Qin, for the future of the babies, you will definitely leave this small mountain village. But the two of us are already very old. If we go with you, we will only be able to help less and less. I’m afraid we will have to trouble you in the future.”

When Aunt Liu spoke, her eyes could not help but glance at Uncle Liu. Her expression was a little sad. It seemed that the couple had discussed it, but the conclusion they reached might not be sincere.

“If you two say so, then I won’t dare to trouble you with anything in the future. Aren’t we a family now? Why are you still talking like this?”

As Mo Ruyue spoke, she secretly gave her babies a look.
