Chapter 547: Chapter 547: Wishes and Solutions to Puzzles Chapter 547: Chapter 547: Wishes and Solutions to Puzzles Luo Daoren finished his drink and slowly said, “Your grandma and I managed to save some money over the years, and to be selfish, we really didn’t dare to touch it before.
In those years, taking care of Xuyan and Xuyuan, we just thought that if one day we met a good doctor, we could afford the medical expenses. Unfortunately, we never did find one, but now that the two of them are in good health, we can finally have peace of mind.
When Xu Dong and Xu Nan got married, our family contributed fifty, and now for your sister’s wedding, we’ll give a hundred. Don’t be jealous.
From now on, when our family’s boys get married, grandma and grandpa will subsidize fifty, and for the girls, they’ll get a hundred as a dowry. You all don’t have any objections, do you?”
Shang Jie, the eldest daughter-in-law, said, “Grandma and grandpa, please rest assured, even though you gave us fifty when we got married, we wouldn’t mind even if you didn’t give us anything. Really, we both have jobs, we can’t be taking money from our elders.
We’ve already discussed with Xu Nan before, we’ll also contribute fifty for our little sister-in-law’s marriage to lay a foundation, and we’ll buy some more things as a token of our affection as brothers and sisters, hoping Jialin can be confident when she marries and live her life well.”
Luo Jialin’s eyes reddened with emotion: “Thank you, big brother and sister-in-law, second brother and sister-in-law, thank you everyone.”
Luo Qiao, seeing the atmosphere in the room, warm yet somewhat melancholic, joked, “So touching.”
She then began to pretend to wipe away tears, her exaggerated actions making everyone laugh.
The cousin was also made to laugh by Luo Qiao, and with that, the topic was changed.
After cleaning up the dishes, they laid out seeds, peanuts, candies, and fruits, sat down, and each began to share their wishes. Astonishingly, Luo Xuyan’s four made a vow to earn money to support their sister, which brought a mix of laughter and tears to the room.
Later, it was Stone who cleared up their confusion, saying that the four brothers had been provoked by the Yuan Family, which added another stung person to the mix, Luo Haotian.
Luo Haotian, with a pitiful look, said, “Qiaoqiao, you are dad’s own precious daughter, all the money dad earns is yours, just don’t let anyone trick you away.”
Luo Qiao was about to respond when she heard Stone from the side say, “Sister, I will also earn money for you to spend in the future, don’t get tricked away.”
The room burst into laughter again, and Zhou Guifang laughed and scolded, “It’s good that the Yuan Family folks are fond of Qiaoqiao, look at you all being so sour.”
Approaching ten at night, Luo Qiao got up to leave, and Stone asked, “Sister, where are you going?”
Luo Qiao said while wrapping her scarf, “I’m going to the bathroom, it’s cold, you stay inside.”
Stone wanted to follow, but Luo Qiao forcefully kept him inside.
She had just arrived at Uncle Sun’s when a call came through, Luo Qiao didn’t wait for Uncle Sun to answer, she picked up, “Hello, happy new year.”
“Qiaoqiao, happy new year, I can give you the red envelope only when we meet.”
“Happy new year, thank you.”
Uncle Sun got up and went into the yard, and then Luo Qiao continued, “Where are you spending the new year?”
“At my grandpa’s, I’ll return to my dad’s for a visit tomorrow on the first day of the new year. Qiaoqiao, when should I e and visit you for the new year?”
“How many days off do you have from your office? Aren’t you visiting relatives?”
“Don’t you want me to e over?”
“I didn’t mean that, I’m just worried you won’t have enough time.”
“Then, how about I e over the day after tomorrow?”
“Sure, whenever you arrange.”
“Qiaoqiao, I miss you.”
“Where are you calling from? Isn’t there anyone beside you?”
“I’m in grandpa’s study, everyone else is in the living room.”
“Then you say hello to your family for me, I’m sending my new year wishes to them all.”
“Okay, what about me?”
“Then I’m also sending you new year’s greetings. Wishing you a new year that’s everything you wish for!”
“Thanks, Qiaoqiao. I also wish for everything to go your way in the new year!”
“Is that all? I should go back, I just said I needed to step out to take care of something, that’s why I came here, and Stone will probably be worried if I take too long, don’t want to stir up everyone.”
“Okay, then you better head back quickly, see you the day after tomorrow.”
On the first day of the new year, Zhou Guifang and the daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law were busy preparing food in the kitchen, while Luo Daoren took his sons, grandsons, granddaughters, great-grandsons, and great-granddaughters out to visit neighbors and wish them a happy new year.
Stone followed behind Luo Qiao, “Sister, it’s really lively with so many people.”
