Chapter 626: Chapter 626 Old Fourth, Take a Good Look Chapter 626: Chapter 626 Old Fourth, Take a Good Look Luo Qiao and her group had not long arrived home when Big Brother and his wife, Woo Yunmei, returned as well. Woo Yunmei entered with a smiling face, greeting the family before heading upstairs to change her clothes, while Big Brother Luo Xuyan stayed on the first floor.
Luo Daoren asked, “Everything went well at your father-in-law’s today, didn’t it?”
Luo Xuyan, holding his coat and hanging it up, replied, “Grandpa, rest assured, all was well. Today, a lot of guests came to my father-in-law’s place, many of them celebrated figures from the music industry; my father-in-law introduced me to them, and it was quite fruitful.
“The tea Qiaoqiao prepared for today really stood out and received unanimous praise from the guests; because of this, my father-in-law got a bit drunk at noon.”
Zhou Guifang, who was sitting to the side, heard her grandson and asked, “If the tea was good, how did he end up drunk?”
Luo Xuyan burst into laughter, “It was all the guests flattering him, which made him drink more. And once he drank more, he got drunk.”
By now, Woo Yunmei had come downstairs after changing and, hearing Luo Xuyan’s words, laughed, “That’s right, what Xuyan said is all true. Today, Qiaoqiao’s tea really made my dad proud. He was so pleased that he gave away more than a whole jar. Just wait, when he sobers up tomorrow, he’s bound to regret it.”
After saying this, she too laughed.
Luo Qiao said with a smile, “As long as he likes it, I can send some more to Uncle when we have stock.”
Woo Yunmei replied, “If you have some, just sell it to my dad at cost price, there’s no need for gifts. After all, good tea isn’t cheap, and we can’t always expect you to give it away for free.”
Luo Xuyan chimed in, “Your sister-in-law is right. You have so many older brothers, if you give it all away for free, you’d go bankrupt, and that won’t do. As your eldest brother, I must set a good example.”
Luo Qiao chuckled, “Okay, then we’ll do as Big Sister-in-law suggested.”
Luo Daoren looked at his harmonious family with nothing but contentment in his heart.
Time flew rapidly to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, when once again, several families gathered together. Even the cousin and her husband joined them to celebrate the Lantern Festival. Learning that the cousin was pregnant, everyone burst into a round of congratulations.
For lunch, the women showcased their culinary skills in the kitchen, making dishes that were no less impressive than the New Year’s Eve dinner. With a son-in-law and daughter-in-law present, Zhou Guifang wished she could bring out all of her household treasures.
Luo Siyuan teased, “Grandma, you’re playing favorites—now that you have a sister-in-law and brother-in-law, you don’t care about us anymore.”
Zhou Guifang laughed and scolded, “Yes, grandma is biased. If you want to be taken seriously, hurry up and find someone to marry.”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Happy times always seem to pass quickly. After finishing the Lantern Festival meal, Luo Qiao bought a train ticket for the evening of the sixteenth day. Before leaving, she made a trip to her master’s place, presenting a pot of Magnolia liliflora and a pot of camellia, along with some food and drink.
The master and his wife were thrilled to see the two pots of flowers. Seeing their smiles, Luo Qiao also felt quite pleased.
Upon departing from her master’s, Luo Qiao made a trip to the Jing Family, fulfilling her promise to Old Master Jing by delivering a pot of Magnolia liliflora and a pot of Clivia. These flowers were pre-cultivated by Luo Qiao in her space and later nourished with her special ability to ensure they were robust, easy to care for, and had a long flowering period.
Of course, when she returned home, she didn’t forget to bring two pots for her own grandparents—a pot of Camellia and a pot of Magnolia liliflora. Unexpectedly, the happiest one wasn’t her grandparents, but her sister-in-law.
Since the Woo family were all flower enthusiasts, Big Sister-in-law Woo Yunmei said that she would take care of these two pots of flowers. After having an early dinner, Luo Qiao packed her luggage, said goodbye to her family, and prepared to head to the train station.
Luo Qiao didn’t want her family to see her off because it was late and the brothers would not have a bus back home, but her three older brothers insisted and firmly escorted Luo Qiao to the train station.
Unexpectedly, just as her three older brothers were reluctantly sending their sister onto the train, Lu Yichen appeared in Luo Qiao’s car and even arranged for a bunk with the train attendant.
As the train pulled out of the station, Luo Siyuan saw a familiar figure on the train, “Big Brother, Second Brother, I think I just saw Lu Yichen on the train.”
Luo Xuyan looked towards the departing train, “Little Fourth, are you sure?”
