Reborn as a Superpower Girl in the 80s-Chapter 778 Awkward Situation

Luo Qiao comforted the master and his wife, organized the things she brought, prepared dinner in the kitchen, and had a meal with the master and his wife. Seeing that they had calmed down, she then left.

Some might not understand, why can’t they simply start afresh and embrace a happy life surrounded by children and grandchildren now that the incident is in the past, and the younger ones have admitted their wrongs?

When the old couple first arrived at the farm, Yang Jiancheng’s left leg had been broken by someone, and Feng Shumin was so ill, she nearly passed away. If it weren’t for Old Master Yuan secretly sending them some herbal medicines to save their lives, they might have been buried by now.

If at first it was due to being exploited or instigated by others, what about the decade and more they spent on the farm, with not a single child enquiring after them, or sending them even the smallest gift? Could it not chill one’s heart?

Besides, there were also the actions of the three families after they returned to the Capital. Now, the old couple are more open-minded; they have been re-employed at their unit to do what they can, and they will have several apprentices looking after them in the future. They won’t lack for anything.

After Luo Qiao left, Yang Jiancheng spoke up, "Shumin, let’s look for a suitable apartment to buy and put it under Qiaoqiao’s name; this apartment can’t be left for the future."

Feng Shumin knew exactly what her husband was thinking and nodded, "I’ll follow your lead."

The next day, Luo Qiao and her brother and sisters-in-law made a trip to their uncle’s house since the sisters-in-law had to return to their maternal home, hence they arrived at their uncle’s place quite early.

From her cousin Ning Lingyu, she learned that she had confirmed her relationship with Yuan Jiaming, who had already told his family about it. However, since Yuan Family’s eldest grandson, Yuan Jiahui, also had a partner in the army,

and considering Yuan Jiaming was still studying, and she herself was preparing for the college entrance examination in July, the Yuan Family thought to arrange their engagement after Yuan Jiahui’s wedding.

Luo Qiao, hearing this, did not think much of it.

The uncle and aunt were overjoyed upon learning that the third sister-in-law Zhou Xiaomin was pregnant. The great aunt Zhang Yuehua instructed them on various matters to pay attention to for quite a while, and then inquired about Woo Yunmei’s due date, even discussing how Ning Lingxuan and Ning Lingyu, her second and third cousins, also had partners and would confirm their engagement next month.

Luo Siyuan laughed and said, "Great aunt, surely the second and third cousins won’t get married on the same day? They were born on the same day; if they marry on the same day, perhaps their wives will even give birth on the same day and hold the full-month celebration together."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Ning Hongda, the eldest uncle, said with a laugh, "That’s not entirely impossible."

Not long after, Ning Lingshan, the eldest cousin from the second uncle’s family, also arrived with her husband and son. Luo Qiao stood to greet them, "Eldest cousin, cousin-in-law."

Upon seeing the little boy on the back seat of the bicycle, "This must be Chaochao; he’s grown so much?"

After more pleasantries upon entering the house, and having asked Luo Xuyan for several favors before, Luo Qiao gave more generous red envelopes to her little cousin, nephew, and grand-nephew than the year before.

Ning Hongbo, the second uncle, also said, "This year, our family has quite a few joyous occasions. Ling Rui’s partner is eager to get married too; they said they would come to propose in the next few days."

The great aunt Zhang Yuehua said with a smile, "Well, we need to coordinate that; we can’t have everyone’s dates clashing."

After more conversation, Luo Xuyan suggested leaving. Although the great aunt wanted to keep Luo Qiao, Luo Xuyuan and Luo Siyuan for lunch, they all excused themselves for having affairs to attend to and prepared to leave together.

As they stepped out the door, they unexpectedly bumped into Ning Xueling who had returned with the Wei Family, making the scene somewhat awkward all of a sudden.

Luo Xuyan, Luo Xuyuan, and Luo Qiao were all silent, leaving Luo Siyan with no choice but to say, "Mom, happy New Year."

Ning Xueling’s gaze drifted to the visibly pregnant Woo Yunmei and Zhou Xiaomin beside Luo Xuyan. Luo Siyuan stepped forward and pointed at Woo Yunmei, "Mom, this is my eldest sister-in-law Woo Yunmei."

He then pointed to Zhou Xiaomin, "And this is my third sister-in-law Zhou Xiaomin."

Both women could only follow by calling out, "Mom."

Hearing the two daughters-in-law call her ’mom,’ Ning Xueling snapped out of her daze and, slightly flustered, took out two Big Unity banknotes from her pocket and handed one to each daughter-in-law.

The two women, unsure of what to do with the money in their hands, turned to look at their husbands at the same time; the money felt burning hot to the touch.
