“Me too, Uncle!” Liuli exclaimed loudly, as if playing a prank.
With a smile on her face, she made her way home.
Tang Moxi stood there, watching Liuli run off with a smile.
He continued to gaze in her direction until she vanished from sight. After a moment, he got into the car and drove away.
He pressed the Bluetooth button and called Tang Yunxi.
“Are you really not going home tonight?” Tang Moxi asked.
“No, I’m not going home tonight. I’m worried that Grandpa Tang will be angry. He’ll be in a better mood when you and Liuli get married tomorrow.”
…..
“Will you forgive me? I’ll be back then,” Tang Yunxi replied from the other end of the phone.
“Grandpa Tang has forgiven you, but he’s struggling to express it,” Tang Moxi explained.
“Just go home and console Grandpa Tang,” he advised.
“I understand. It’s my fault, not Grandpa Tang’s. 1’11 be home tomorrow.”
“When that time comes, no matter how Grandpa treats me, I’ll apologize to him and to
Yanxi.”
“Yunxi, it’s ail in the past now.”
“I know.”
“Brother, congratulations!” Tang Yunxi said with emotion in her voice.
“Thank you!”
“Brother, can I ask you something?”
“Ask me anything, what wouldn’t you want to ask your brother!”
“Did you really choose this path yourself?” Tang Yunxi asked.
“What do you mean, my marriage with Liuli?” Tang Moxi replied.
“Yeah, Brother, I’m being straightforward.”
“Liuli is too young for you.”
“1 heard that it was Grandpa Tang’s idea to marry Liuli?”
“Yunxi, it’s not as serious as you think.”
“I like Liuli.”
“She might be young…”
“All the other conveniences are good.”
“She doesn’t even complain about me being old.”
“Don’t blame her for being too young,” Tang Moxi said, half-jokingly.
“I’m glad you think so.”
“I was worried you’d make yourself suffer.”
“As long as there was one person in the family who needed to take care of everything.”
��We don’t need the whole family to be like this!”
“Yunxi, I just told you…”
“Don’t take it to heart, let bygones be bygones.”
“I got it, Brother.”
“That would never happen again.”
“Alright, this sister-in-law is not bad either.”
“The red braised pork is a little hard, but it’s still fragrant!”
“Good that you know what your sister-in-law is like.”
“Also, don’t call her little sister-in-law, just sister-in-law.”
“1 got it, brother, you are so annoying!”
“Your husband is going to be even more annoying!”
“I don’t have this bad luck, okay.”
“You are driving right? I am not talking with you any more.”
“I will be home tomorrow!”
“Okay, I will be back soon.”
“You can stay in the apartment alone, take a break and go home to help tomorrow.”
“Brother, you are getting married tomorrow and you will be very busy. I may not be able to take care of you!”
“1 got it, I will take care of myself.”
“What you need to do is become the most handsome bridegroom!”
“Good night!”
“Good night!”
Tang Moxi ended the call, feeling a mix of emotions.
Liuli struggled to make her way back to the yard.
Before she reached the back door, she heard her mother’s surprised voice.
“Liuli, what are you doing here? Aren’t you sleeping?”
Startled, Liuli turned around and saw her mother, who was about to walk out of the room. She responded with a smile.
“I felt a bit stuffy after waking up, so I came down for some fresh air. Mom, where are you going?”
“I’m going to send some stuff to your granduncle. I’ll be back soon.”
“Go and eat something. Your Second Aunt has made some dishes. Have them before they get cold,” Lin Yu advised and then headed towards the door.
“Okay!” Liuli replied, her voice filled with a sense of slowness.
Her heart almost skipped a beat.
Then she patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief. Good that her secret had not been found!
It was getting dark, and her mom did not notice that she was carrying a bag.
Otherwise she would not have believed what she said.
She could not help but take a deep breath, feeling that she was very lucky.
Liuli went upstairs, took a bath, got changed and went downstairs for dinner.
Although she had eaten one bowl at Mr. Tang’s apartment…
She was still starving!
She had some relatives who were helping her with her wedding the following day.
In comparison, Liuli felt that she was the least burdened person in the whole world.
“Liuli, your mother said that you were sleeping, so she did not go up to wake you.”
“I have made soup for you, drink it when it is hot.” Lin Yu’s sister Lin Yin came out with the kettle and said.
“Thank you, Second Aunt!” Liuli thanked her.
Liuli could not help but drool at the smell of the soup.
She felt so embarrassed to show off at Mr. Tang’s apartment with her terrible culinary skills.
She wondered if she had left a bad impression on her future sister-in-law!
…..
Liuli thought of Tang Yunxi and what Tang Moxi once said…
“My two sisters are still young.”
But Tang Yunxi seemed to look older than she was!
Alright, maybe Tang Yunxi looked older than her age.
Liuli explained to herself.
After dinner, she had a chat with her relatives in the living room.
Then her mom made her go to bed again.
Liuli really wanted to say something about it..
