Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s-Chapter 774 Jubilant Events
Chapter 774: Chapter 774 Jubilant Events
Time flies so fast, yet another New Year’s Eve has come.
In the afternoon, Luo Daoren had already had his grandsons put up the couplets and hung the big red lanterns. He even strung some electric wires under the eaves of the third floor and hung a row of light bulbs wrapped in colored paper.
Luo Xuyan, admiring the lit-up decorations, said, "Grandpa, they’re beautiful, aren’t they?"
Luo Daoren looked up, his face all smiles, "Festive."
Luo Qiao put on her coat and headed outside. Second Brother Luo Xuyuan saw her and asked, "Qiaoqiao, where are you off to?"
"Big Brother and Sister-in-law should be arriving soon, I’m going out to meet them." freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"You go back, it’s bitterly cold outside. I’ll go greet them."
Luo Qiao glanced at the snowy sky, "Alright, you go then. I’ll go help Grandma and the others."
Luo Haotian and his brothers made a round around the house to tidy everything up. After coming into the courtyard and seeing the lights on, they all started smiling, "Xuyuan, good job."
Next to him, Luo Xuyan chuckled, "This year we did it on a whim. Next year, let’s prepare well in advance, buy more light bulbs, and hang a row on every level. It will definitely look amazing from a distance."
Zhou Guifang came out to get something and heard her grandson’s words, "You silly boy, think about how much that will cost in electricity. We have to live within our means, and all that prettiness isn’t going to pay the bills."
Luo Xuyan laughed, "We’ll just turn them on for a little while in the evening; it won’t use up much electricity. It’s all for a festive atmosphere."
Soon after, Luo Xuyuan brought Luo Siyan and Zhou Xiaomin back home, carrying lots of bags and prepared quite a few things.
In the courtyard, Luo Pengrui from the eldest grandson’s family ran around nonstop. Luo Siyan dropped his things and immediately guarded Zhou Xiaomin. Seeing this, Zhou Guifang laughed and said, "Is there some news about a baby?"
Zhou Xiaomin nodded shyly, feeling a bit embarrassed, "Just over a month."
Luo Siyan said, "Xiaomin’s been so busy at work recently, she forgot all about it. It wasn’t until she felt unwell at noon today that she went to the hospital for a check-up."
Zhou Guifang couldn’t stop smiling, "Quick, quick, come inside. What are you standing around for?"
Cousin-in-law Shang Jie gathered the few children in the yard, "Your Fifth Aunt is pregnant just like your Third Aunt, so you need to be careful. Don’t bump into anyone when you play, you hear me?"
The children nodded, "We understand."
With everyone gathered, the dinner was served, and Luo Daoren raised his glass, "Come on, we’ve had a continuous stream of good news this year, and work and studies have gone smoothly for everyone. Next year, our family is going to welcome new members. Let’s toast to the good days."
Luo Pengrui, the young grandchild, said, "Great-grandpa, does that mean I’ll have another brother or sister?"
Luo Daoren laughed, "Yes, after your Third Aunt and Fifth Aunt give birth next year, you’ll have two more brothers or sisters. And when they grow up, you, as the eldest brother, will have to take good care of them."
Luo Pengrui suddenly felt the weight of responsibility on his shoulders and nodded, "Okay, I’ll take care of them and make sure they don’t get into mischief."
Everyone at the table burst into laughter.
Luo Qiao smiled, "Look at that, our Xiao Pengrui truly has the makings of an older brother."
After the New Year’s Eve dinner, they helped clean up and then moved to the living room to talk about the interesting things in work and life during the year, and they also made plans for the future while preparing the dumplings for the next morning’s breakfast.
In laughter and joy, they welcomed the new year.
On the first day of the New Year, it was the same old routine. Luo Daoren took his grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-granddaughters out to wish the neighbors a Happy New Year, while Zhou Guifang was busy in the kitchen with her two daughters-in-law and the two granddaughters-in-law from the eldest branch of the family.
Luo Qiao, the big sister-in-law, and the third sister-in-law were supposed to help in the kitchen too, but the eldest aunt said the kitchen was no place for pregnant women with all the smoke and fire, so she sent Luo Qiao, the youngest aunt, to watch TV with them instead.
When the three women settled in the living room, Woo Yunmei looked at Zhou Xiaomin, "Xiaomin, come sit here."
Zhou Xiaomin looked at her sister-in-law’s belly, "Big sister-in-law, did you suffer a lot from morning sickness before?"
Woo Yunmei smiled, "A bit, but it wasn’t too severe. I had a colleague whose morning sickness was terrible; she couldn’t eat at all."
After saying that, she regretted it, fearing she might have frightened her younger sister-in-law. She quickly added, "Everyone’s body is different, and so is the situation. Don’t be scared by what I just said."
