Chapter 1278: Chapter 1278: Stop Showing Off

Steven walked over and touched Emma’s hair: "Stop pouting, it’s time for us to leave."

Luo Qiao laughed again: "When can I have your wedding candies? If I go back to China after that, you guys will have to reimburse me for a round-trip flight."

Emma’s face turned red all of a sudden: "Who said we’re getting married?"

Luo Qiao watched her stubborn denial: "Fine, since you don’t like Steven, I can rest easy. I’ll introduce him to my roommate then; she always says Steven is handsome but never had a chance to meet him."

Emma pouted aggrievedly: "Luo, you’re really mean."

Luo Qiao looked at Emma with a mock-serious expression: "So, should I introduce Steven to her or not?"

Emma grabbed the braised meat Rong Daniang handed her, pulled Steven along, and turned to leave: "Don’t even think about it."

Luo Qiao burst into laughter behind them, really, these two needed a push to get going, so hesitant.

Professor Wilson came over with his share of braised meat and gave Luo Qiao a thumbs-up: "Your method is good."

Luo Qiao smiled: "Professor, you’ve noticed too?"

Professor Wilson looked at the two people who ran to the car: "Without your push, I bet they’d delay even longer."

Luo Qiao waved to Emma and Steven who got in the car and said to the professor: "It would be great if I could attend their wedding before I go back to China."

Professor Wilson smiled at Luo Qiao’s words: "The two families have been friends for generations, and the elders have been thinking about marriage between them; you’ve helped them a lot."

After saying that, he also said goodbye to everyone and got in the car.

Yusuf also drove his own car, thanked Luo Qiao for the braised meat, and then got into his car.

Watching the three cars leave together, she then turned back.

She looked at Zhang Jing and He Rui next to her: "You’re getting married when you go back to China, but how will He Rui handle her half-semester of classes?"

He Rui smiled: "I’ll go back to China to get married first, then come back later for the thesis defense."

When they were about to leave, Rong Daniang chased out of the house: "Take these with you, they’re all pickles and mushroom meat sauce I made myself. Take them back to ease your cravings.

Before we go back to China, if you miss Chinese food, just come over. I’ll cook for you. It’s not easy for all of us abroad. Meeting is fate, so don’t be shy."

Luo Qiao also smiled: "Exactly, meeting is fate, come over whenever you have time."

After sending them off and returning inside, Xia Shanmei was washing dishes in the kitchen with Mary and Hannah. Listening to Xia Shanmei chat with them in her broken English, Luo Qiao smiled. Taking this step was good.

Luo Qiao smiled and walked over, joining the cleanup crew, and gave Xia Shanmei an encouraging look.

After everyone had left, Luo Qiao asked: "Why didn’t Old Lady Qiao come over?"

Rong Daniang replied: "Qiao Hua took her on a business trip; they’re not in Boston."

Luo Qiao laughed: "He is dutiful, that’s good."

Rong Daniang was peeling oranges for the kids but said: "We are all lucky. She doesn’t get along with her son, but luckily she has a grandson who is very filial to her. We lost our son, but we have you guys."

Luo Qiao patted Rong Daniang’s shoulder: "You guys have worked hard these past few years."

Rong Daniang smiled: "Don’t say that. If it weren’t for Yichen bringing us to Capital City, who knows what our situation would be now. Don’t even want to think about it."

Luo Qiao hugged Rong Daniang: "That’s why we can’t do without each other; we are family."

Looking at the five little ones, she added: "You’re raising them young, but in the future, they’ll take care of you when you’re old. Of course, Yichen and I will be the main force."

Elder Rong just came back from the backyard, hearing Luo Qiao’s words, his eyes suddenly became moist. He understood in his heart that Yichen and his wife really treated them well, and they had never been worried about their old age. But hearing Luo Qiao say it out loud warmed his heart.

Their relatives back home were only interested in their property and didn’t genuinely treat them well. But here, it was different. Yichen and Luo Qiao were truly good to them, truly treating them with respect as elders.

Although they were abroad now for the kids, there would have been someone else without them.

And to think they could go abroad to see the world and even learn some broken foreign phrases, they could boast about it when they go back to Changzhou. Their son would probably be relieved to see that.

Having composed himself, he walked in: "This year is colder than usual, the greenhouse at the back will need straw mats at night."

Luo Qiao looked over: "We’re about to enter November, so it’s normal. He Qing and I will take care of the straw mats later; you don’t climb up and down anymore, otherwise we’d be worried."

Rong Daniang also chimed in: "You should listen to Qiaoqiao on this. It saves everyone concern."
