Chapter 683: Chapter 683 Debate
The aunts-in-law reserved a portion of the leftover food for dinner that evening and divided the rest among the helpful neighbors. These days, food doesn’t keep well, making it a perfect opportunity to return the favor.
Luo Qiao saw her elder aunt and younger aunt-in-law sending off the helpers and quickly brought over two cups of water, "Elder aunt, younger aunt-in-law, you’ve worked hard. Have some water first. I’m going to get some watermelon for you."
In fact, the aunties also wanted to help earlier, but were stopped by the elder aunt. Today was Luo Qiao’s engagement day, and the family from her mother’s side were guests; no matter what, they weren’t allowed to help.
After the elder brothers returned from delivering items, Luo Qiao also brought them watermelon, accompanied by a sweet smile and a word of gratitude, "Thank you for your hard work."
The sour mood of Luo Xuyan and his brothers was immediately cured.
While the siblings were joking around, Ning Hongbo, their second uncle, came over, "Siyan, about your marriage, should we tell your mom?"
At that moment, Ning Hongda also came over. He was worried his brother would say something inappropriate again and upset the nephews.
Then Luo Xuyan, the eldest brother, stood up, "If she wanted to come, nobody would stop her. If she doesn’t care, even an invitation won’t bring her here. Why trouble Siyan over this, second uncle?"
Feng Caiqin, nearly driven mad with anger, saw her husband walking towards the nephews and hurriedly got up and followed, worried he would make another foolish move. Sure enough, even though he knew it wasn’t the children’s fault, he couldn’t resist saying those words to test the waters. She really didn’t understand him.
Ning Hongbo said, "I know your mom is confused, but marriage is serious business. No matter how poorly she behaves, she’s still your mother. I hope you can go and tell her yourselves."
Luo Xuyuan then stood up, "Getting married is supposed to be a happy occasion. Even knowing she might cause trouble if she comes, do you still want us to invite her over, second uncle?"
Upon hearing his second nephew’s challenge, Ning Hongbo subconsciously replied, "She’s your mother. How could she intentionally cause trouble? I just don’t want her to have any regrets."
Luo Siyan didn’t want his second brother to continue arguing with their uncle, especially since today was their sister’s engagement day.
He thus spoke out, "Second uncle, I don’t know what my mom is thinking, but she’s aware of everything that’s happening here. Let’s not bother going to her personally. It’s not that we’re unfilial; she was the first to be unkind.
If she really cared, she would come over for a drink on the day of the celebration. If not, it’s better for everyone to remain at peace. I understand what you are trying to do, second uncle, but we’re living well now and we don’t want to stir up trouble. Please understand."
Feng Caiqin quickly tugged on her husband’s arm and whispered, "Hongbo, the children are right. Whether she comes or not is out of the children’s hands; it’s up to Xueling to decide.
Today is Qiaoqiao’s engagement. Can you please not be so impulsive? I know you care about your younger sister, but the children are not to blame. What are you doing?"
Zhang Yuehua was having a good conversation with Song Shiya when Ning Lingyu nudged her, "Mom, it’s getting late. We should go."
Zhang Yuehua instantly understood that her somewhat clueless uncle must have stirred up discomfort again. It’s alright to be fond of your sister, but it’s not right to force others.
So she said to Song Shiya, "Indeed, it’s getting late. We should leave."
Having said that, she stood up to greet Luo’s Elderly Couple, "Uncle, auntie, we have to go now. Someone in the family has a night shift and we need to go home to get ready."
Upon hearing the commotion, Ning Hongda saw that his family had already stood up and was preparing to leave, so he too said his farewells to those in the house and prepared to depart.
Luo Daoren asked them to wait a moment, took a few watermelons in a woven bag, and brought them out, "Don’t consider it trouble. These melons are grown by me, high-yielding and delicious. Take some home to enjoy."
Seeing that Ning Hongda had already packed them, he couldn’t refuse and took the melons with a smile, then led the Ning family to say goodbye and leave.
The Yang Family and the Yuan Family, realizing the time, also got up and prepared to take their leave. Luo Daoren treated everyone equally, sending them off with some of his home-grown watermelons.
Old Master Yuan originally wanted his grandson to escort the Old Couple Yang, but Luo Qiao said, "Grandpa Yuan, it’s alright, I can send them. I borrowed a car yesterday and it’s parked behind the house."
