After everyone got acquainted, as it wasn’t yet ti for the al, they sat down to chat.
"Are you overwheld by so many people? Our Cheng family is big, but this isn’t really a lot. Your third brother went to the United States for an academic exchange these past few days, so you can’t et him. Last ti you ca, you didn’t et everyone, so this ti I called everyone together to put faces to nas and have a al!" Old Master Cheng explained with a smile the reason for so many people.
"I’m not overwheld; rather, I’m quite happy. Old Master, you have so many grandchildren; I’m happy for you," Cheng Su replied with a smile. "As for introductions, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future; there’s no rush!"
"Yes, yes, yes, that’s what I think too," Old Master Cheng chuckled. "You guys are welco to visit often, we don’t have many girls in our family."
Cheng Su pursed her lips and chuckled. Indeed, in this room, except for those who married in, they were all n, and there wasn’t a single girl, a testant to the Cheng family’s flourishing offspring.
"Many families would be envious of that!" Cheng Su said with a laugh.
"I just wanted a granddaughter; granddaughters are so obedient. These little rascals don’t listen!" Old Master Cheng huffed lightly.
Everyone protested.
"Dad, then you’ll have to hope for Yaozu!" Cheng Yaoguang’s wife said with a smile.
Cheng Yaozu was tossing an apple up and down, saying, "Sister-in-law, don’t be like this. I promise, I really didn’t escape from the last blind date. I sat obediently and drank two cups of tea; it was just the girl being picky!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Ying Xiaoya also laughed; this person was truly amusing.
"Next ti, I’ll find soone for you to et properly!" Madam Cheng said seriously.
"Don’t bother; nowadays, it’s all about free love. I’ll find soone myself!" Cheng Yaozu pouted.
Old Master Cheng said, "Counting on you, I don’t know when I’ll get to drink the bride’s tea."
As he spoke, his eyes turned towards Ning Ge, sitting properly, and asked, "Ning Boy, are you from Beijing?"
Ning Ge quickly replied, "Yes, Old Master, our Old Master has also ntioned you to us!"
"Oh?" Old Master Cheng beca interested, looking at him. The young man was handso, sitting upright. From what the eldest said, Xiao Su and the Beijing Ning family seed quite close, and that Ning family in Beijing was quite substantial. Was this the Ning family?
The Ning family, he was old, and his mory was not as sharp.
Cheng Su was a bit surprised, glancing at Ning Ge. Was he about to disclose his family background?
"However, what our Old Master said wasn’t too pleasant. He ntioned that now Old Red Army soldiers are scarce, and back then, our Old Master was also in the Red Army, just stationed in the north while you might have been in the south."
"Oh, who’s your Old Master?" Old Master Cheng asked.
"Ning Zhengguang."
"That’s a senior chief in the military district." As the party secretary, Cheng Yaoguang had no reason not to know the big figures above, his eyes twinkled, quite a significant background.
"Ah, it’s him. I’ve heard of him; your Old Master was indeed mighty back then. During the Anti-Japanese War, he single-handedly blew up a pillbox..." Old Master Cheng slapped his thigh. "Ah, truly, we’re family, yet we t and didn’t recognize each other!"
"Fate brings people together; now we know each other, don’t we?" Cheng Su said with a laugh.
"Yes, yes, it’s all thanks to you, the matchmaker," Old Master Cheng laughed, looking at Ning Ge with much more warmth.
"Speaking of which, our Old Master first knew Cheng Su, and that’s how our family got to know her," Ning Ge added. "In the eyes of our Old Master, none of us can compare to her!"
Cheng Su was a bit stunned—what did Ning Ge an by that, trying to elevate her?
Ning Ge glanced at her, winking mischievously.
