Uncle Liang was about to say sothing more but was interrupted again.
"Alright, don’t overthink it. Isn’t it better to let things go naturally? The kids will be back soon, and what we need to do is prepare food for them so they feel at ho. Nannan doesn’t have her in-laws, so we are like her in-laws here. Shouldn’t we make her happy when she cos ho to us? I can see those two kids must have t, and maybe things are a bit tense between them. I don’t care what happened—I just hope these two kids I’ve watched grow can be harmonious, just like in the past."
Aunt Fu, being a woman who has lived to this age, is more mature in her thinking than many others. To her, the simplest solution to the problem is that since there aren’t many relatives around Nannan anymore, if Li Yan can let go of past obsessions, Nannan will have one more Brother, which is definitely a good thing.
Compared to his wife’s optimistic thinking, Uncle Liang felt less favorable and even had a bad feeling about the upcoming eting. As for where this bad feeling cos from, he couldn’t quite put his finger on it.
But the matter had already co to this point, and he understood well that even thinking too much wouldn’t help. They could only wait for this simple thing to arrive.
Following this train of thought, the subsequent developnts confird Uncle Liang’s inner thoughts.
An Nan stepped in as the servant opened the door and imdiately spotted the figure standing in the living room. Her expression turned unpleasant, and she sharply questioned, "An Liyang, why are you here?"
She didn’t even call him Brother.
This reality made soone’s heart very uncomfortable.
Simultaneously, the commotion in the living room alard Uncle Liang and Aunt Fu in the kitchen.
The couple exchanged a glance, quickly put down what they were doing, and rushed to the living room.
Each of the couple stood by one individual and began to diate.
Aunt Fu, tugging nervously at An Nan’s sleeve, expressed her confusion, "What’s wrong? Why such a temper? Isn’t this your Brother? The Brother you’ve longed for all these years. Why are you unhappy now that you’ve t him?"
Aunt Fu, being the respected elder she cherished, finally softened the anger on An Nan’s face, although the stubbornness in her eyes still clearly showed her displeasure.
Her evident displeasure was especially noticeable when her eyes fell on An Liyang.
Seeing her silent, Aunt Fu was at a loss and could only seek help from the Man nearby: "Mu Bai, what’s going on?"
Lin Mubai did not explain the reasons to his wife but simply pointed to the gifts on the sofa to change the subject: "Uncle Liang, Aunt Fu, these are so New Year gifts Nannan and I brought for you. We should have co yesterday, but there were too many people at ho."
"No problem, no problem. We knew there were many people at your house, so we didn’t call yesterday and ended up making you go for nothing."
Lin Mubai shook his head again: "No worries; we should have called when we went over this morning. Aunt Fu, Uncle Liang, Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year to you too."
