Chapter 1171: Chapter 1171: How Have You Been Lately?
The three little ones are quite impressive; perhaps it’s because they are surrounded by familiar people that they have been very peaceful throughout the journey.
Luo Qiao would take one of the little rascals to the restroom every hour or two. Actually, once they were in the restroom, she just took them straight into the space. This allowed them some freedom and kept them from getting too tired.
After a twelve-hour flight, they finally landed safely in Capital City.
The weling party was really strong, with three cars arriving at once. Jing Mingrui drove one, carrying Yuan Jianing and Xu Yuqing.
Lu Yixuan drove another, with his wife Wang Xiaoxin and his aunt Gu Qianru, while Luo Xuyuan drove his own, pulling along Xiao Ya.
As soon as they came out, everyone swarmed up to greet them.
Gu Qianru was the first to pick up Gu Hongrui, the little kid: “Xiao Rui, auntie’s little darling, do you still remember your auntie?”
After she asked this, she saw Yanyan and Yueyue walking over: “Yanyan, Yueyue, have you missed your auntie?”
Yanyan ran over: “Yes, I have.”
Yueyue smiled lightly without saying a word.
Yuan Jianing rushed forward and took a child from Luo Qiao’s arms: “Qiaoqiao, which number is this one?”
Luo Qiao smiled: “This is number five, Lu Hongyu.”
Yuan Jianing couldn’t put him down and said admiringly: “You’re really something, giving birth to so many at once. It’s truly enviable.”
People around laughed.
Wang Xiaoxin, the big sister-in-law, also took the fourth child, Huang Hongye, from Lu Yichen’s arms: “So this is our little friend Huang Hongye?”
Lu Yichen nodded: “Yes, this is number four, Xiao Ye.”
Xu Yuqing approached Luo Qiao and they embraced gently: “More than a year without seeing you, you’ve bee even more beautiful.”
Luo Qiao patted Xu Yuqing’s back with a smile: “You too, you’ve bee even more charming. One look and it’s clear you’re living a good life.”
The group walked outside, and from time to time, passersby paid attention to them. The cars went directly back to the second courtyard, where everyone was waiting today.
There really was no choice; both the Luo Family and the Gu family wanted to take them in to stay, but in the end, they simply stopped arguing and let them arrange it themselves, so today everyone gathered in the second courtyard.
As soon as they arrived, many people ran out of the courtyard, and the five children were then held by different people and brought into the yard.
The courtyard was regularly maintained by people sent by Xu Yuqing, so it was very simple for Luo Xuyuan to have someone e over and clean it up. The main thing was to move the stuff inside the house out for airing, to make it more fortable for them.
The courtyard was full of people, with masters, mistresses, fathers from both sides, and all the people from the Luo Family except the children who were in school were present today.
Elder Gu also excitedly came over to hold a child: “Really well-grown, and this one has a rather large head.”
Gu Qianru joked: “You should see how tall their parents are; it’d be unlikely for the children to be short.”
Yanyan and Yueyue were fought over by several uncles, eager to hold and play with them, with the aunts trying but unable to snatch them up.
Because there were so many people, they didn’t go inside. It was cool under the trees in the courtyard.
The three little ones were held by everyone in turn, and it was only after this that they sat down to chat leisurely.
The meal was already prepared, with tables set up under the shade of trees in the courtyard, allowing everyone to eat and drink merrily.
Later, Yuan Jianing and Jing Mingrui got up to say goodbye, as they were getting married the day after tomorrow and needed to go back early.
Luo Qiao presented them with a wedding gift, the latest model digital camera, joking: “You can add this to the list of dowry.”
Yuan Jianing nodded: “That would be great.”
Luo Qiao saw them out, watched them get into the car, and promised Yuan Jianing that she would e over to see her tomorrow afternoon.
Everyone had taken half a day off, so they left one after another.
After the working people left, Gu Qianru saw that Luo Qiao had finished feeding the little ones, so she took the children to wash up, preparing to let them rest.
Luo Qiao walked over to the master and mistress: “Master, mistress, how have you been doing recently?”
Yang Jiancheng let out a sigh: “Well, not too bad.”
He was embarrassed to say that since his eldest son and daughter returned to Capital City, they hadn’t had a moment of peace.
He felt that he shouldn’t have made an impulsive decision just because of other people’s idle talk. His original intention was that since they wanted to make amends, he would let them e back, so that they wouldn’t be a burden to Qiaoqiao when they were old.
But now, with the families back, they had nearly driven the old couple insane.
