Chapter 262: Chapter 194 A Two-in-One Mega Chapter Part 4

Old Lady Luan didn’t get her way, and grumbling under her breath, returned to her own room. Luan Qingshu sighed and tried to console his wife, "Baojuan, don’t take it to heart. You know how Mom can be."

"I know." Lin Baojuan smiled at her husband, "You’ll have to worry more these next few days since I won’t be home."

"What’s there to worry about? We have Xiaoxiang at home. Let her take a few days off work, stay home to feed the chickens and cook, otherwise Mom might just get more upset."

"Ah!" Lin Baojuan sighed, "Xiaoxiang is only a few months older than Chuxia, and Chuxia is already married. Xiaoxiang doesn’t even have a prospective husband’s family in sight, I wonder if she can marry someone to her liking."

"Let Xiaoxiang stay at home for two more years. I still think that Chuxia is getting married too early. She’s just barely eighteen, she hasn’t even had a chance to enjoy life yet, and now she’s off to become someone’s wife."

"Dad, Mom..." Luan Xiaoxiang came up to the couple, glanced at the scorching Luan Qingshu, then at Lin Baojuan who was busy making pancakes, smiled and said, "If I could marry a man who dotes on his wife like Dad does, I’d be content."

"Such a big girl you are, aren’t you shy?" Lin Baojuan playfully glared at her daughter, "Go comb your hair. If your grandparents see you like this, they are going to talk about you again."

Remembering how Old Master Lin and Old Lady Lin could go on and on, Luan Xiaoxiang quickly ran off to tidy herself up.

The family had just set the table for the meal when they heard the rumble of a car outside.

Lin Baojuan didn’t bother with the meal and ran outside. Luan Dajiang, catching Luan Xiaoxiang’s eye, also hurried out, "Brat, why are you running so fast?" Old Lady Luan seeing her grandson so eager to welcome the guests cursed, then noticed she was the only one left in the room, huffed, grabbed the only white bun available and hastened to stuff it into her mouth.

Zhou Mikang and Zhou Hanliang got out of the car, following Lin Baohe and his wife into the yard, when suddenly a shadow flashed in front of them, and Zhou Mikang found a man several centimeters taller than him charging straight towards him.

"You must have had a hard journey..." The man shook Zhou Mikang’s hand back and forth.

Zhou Mikang just looked at him, speechless.

"Are you here for the bridal pickup? Are you my brother-in-law’s comrade?" Luan Dajiang pointed at his own nose, "I’m Lin Chuxia’s older cousin. I want to report a situation to you..."

"Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, let’s go." Lin Baojuan had already caught a glimpse of her mother-in-law making a spectacle of herself and simply grabbed Zhao Yulan by the hand to leave.

Knowing his own mother’s temper, Luan Qingshu also quickly said, "Let’s not waste time. Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, please excuse us for not inviting you in to sit."

With both hosts speaking this way, Lin Baohe and Zhao Yulan knew there must be a reason not to enter, and without insisting, they shouted a loud greeting to Old Lady Luan inside, then turned and walked out.

After several people had stepped out, they saw Luan Dajiang still tugging on Zhou Mikang’s sleeve, gabbling on and on...

"Baojuan, Qingshu, that’s Chuxia’s husband-to-be, Xiao Zhou." Zhao Yulan whispered to the couple.

"That’s Chuxia’s husband-to-be?" Lin Baojuan was taken aback and immediately called out to her son, "Dajiang, what are you telling your brother-in-law?"

"About military service..." Luan Dajiang suddenly froze, staring at the young man whom he himself had kept from leaving, "You... You’re my brother-in-law?"

"Yes, you can call me that." Zhou Mikang nodded at him, "I’ve taken note of everything you mentioned. I’ll verify it. How about you join us for some celebratory drinks?"

"I..." Luan Dajiang’s face flushed bright red, unsure whether to accept or decline.

Luan Xiaoxiang then made eyes at Luan Dajiang, "Brother, you should go."

"Xiaoxiang and Dajiang can go together," Zhao Yulan said as she glanced at Lin Baojuan, "There’s not much work to be done now, so let your brother-in-law go with Dajiang and Xiaoxiang. The Old Lady Lin asked Laoer’s Home to help look after things."

...

Sitting on her own kang bed, Old Lady Luan was fuming with rage.

Everyone had been taken away, leaving her behind?

"Auntie, hello,"

Just as she was seething with anger, she heard someone greeting her. She looked up and saw Lin Baohai, Lin Baojuan’s Third Brother, only to sneer, "What are you doing here? Coming to laugh at this old woman’s expense?"

"Auntie, what’s wrong?" Lin Baohai forced a smile, struggling to be polite, "Where’s Baojuan?"

"Gone!"

"Gone?" Lin Baohai was startled, "How did she leave?"

"What are you playing dumb for?" Old Lady Luan’s eyes suddenly lit up, "Did they leave you behind too?"

"Leave behind what?"

"You didn’t get on the car, did you?" Old Lady Luan’s mood suddenly improved, realizing that there was someone else who, like her, hadn’t made it! Ha ha ha...

...

Watching his youngest son enter with a downcast look, Old Master Lin already knew the answer but still couldn’t help asking, "How did it go? Did you go to Baojuan’s place?"

"Went there, and then Baojuan left with Qingshu, Dajiang, and Xiaoxiang," Lin Baohai sat dejectedly on a stool, "We don’t have to wait anymore, no one is coming to pick us up."

"Luan Qingshu went too?" Old Lady Lin’s shrill voice made everyone in the room shudder in unison.

Lin Baohai nodded, "Yes, your son-in-law went too."

"I raised him for nothing..."

"Mom, can you calm down for a bit?" Lin Baohai interrupted her, "If it hadn’t been for you constantly meddling, would it have come to this?"

"Baohai, how can you talk to your mother like that?"

"Shut your mouth!" Lin Baohai glared at Second Grandma Lin, "If it weren’t for you coming up with these brilliant ideas, could my mom and dad have made such a foolish move? Now, great, no matter whether Chuxia’s husband is a high-ranking or low-ranking official, he won’t have us in his eyes anymore!"

"Exactly, it’s because of what you said and the assurances you gave that I believed it," Old Lady Lin also turned her anger towards Second Grandma Lin, "Now I see it clearly, you were just afraid that my eldest brother and I would benefit from their success, which made you uneasy just watching us live well!"

"Let’s go!" Second Grandma Lin stood up with a "woof" and pulled Second Grandpa Lin to leave, "If I ever set foot in this door again in my life, may I walk in headfirst!"

"Big brother..." Second Grandpa Lin sighed and followed Second Grandma Lin out the door. (To be continued.
