Chapter 837: I was featured in the newspaper in Chapter 837
The next morning, after breakfast, the Luo Family’s courtyard returned to its usual quietness as those catching trains, going to work, or heading to school had all left.
Lu Yichen, carrying two bottles of Moutai, two cartons of Zhonghua cigarettes, two tins of tea leaves, two cans of milk powder, two cans of Mai Ru Jing, two roast ducks, six pounds of pork, and six pounds of sugar, prepared beforehand, accompanied Luo Qiao to a home visit, a gesture that was definitely considered generous by current standards.
Luo Qiao, on the other hand, was holding a small handbag filled with a change of clothes, "Grandpa, Aunt, we’re leaving."
Old Master Gu nodded, "Go ahead, take care of yourself out there."
Lu Yichen put the items in the car, then opened the passenger door for Luo Qiao, "Get in."
As he spoke, he placed his hand above her to prevent her from bumping her head.
Upon arriving at the Luo Family home, Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen received a warm welcome. Everyone had taken time off to wait for them, especially knowing that she would be departing with her school’s exchange group to Shanghai in the afternoon, so preparations began early to avoid delaying her trip to catch the train.
Zhou Guifang had already told her family that lunch would be moved up to 11:30 that day.
As soon as she sat down, Luo Xuyuan handed her a newspaper. Luo Qiao asked, puzzled, "Why are you giving me a newspaper?"
Luo Xuyuan pointed to the newspaper.
To her surprise, it featured a photo of her from the book signing event the previous day. Not only did it cover the grand occasion but also lavished praise on her professionalism. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
After reading the full article and looking at the picture of her signing on the paper, she said, "I’ll keep this newspaper as a memento; the photo looks good."
Zhou Xiaomin laughed, "Qiaoqiao, come on, let us see it too."
Luo Daoren laughed, "This is a matter of family honor; I will need to drink a few more glasses later."
Luo Haotian had a smile on his face, "Sure, we’ll drink a few more glasses with you later."
The children in the courtyard were also clapping and shouting with joy, "Oh, our cousin is in the newspaper, in the newspaper."
Lu Yichen’s eyes never left Luo Qiao, the two occasionally exchanging glances, making everyone around them feel happy for them.
Luo Qiao reached over to take her little niece from her sister-in-law Zhou Xiaomin, "Zitong, my little treasure, come, let your aunt hold you."
Zhou Xiaomin smiled, "Let Auntie hold you. Auntie is going on a long trip, tell Auntie that Zitong will miss her."
Luo Qiao held her little niece in her arms and kissed the child on the face, "When auntie comes back, shall I bring you a pretty dress, okay?"
Soon Yang Jiancheng and his wife, along with Yuan Weihan and his wife, arrived. After talking about the newspaper feature, they advised Luo Qiao to be careful while traveling.
Seeing that it was about time, Luo Daoren called everyone to the table, not wanting to delay his granddaughter’s train and recalling how honorable it was for her to go with the school’s exchange group while attending university.
They made merry, toasting and eating at the homecoming feast. Luo Qiao then freshened up her makeup before picking up her handbag to say goodbye to everyone and head to the train station.
Meeting with many neighbors at the alley, they warmly greeted the Luo family. Someone said, "Aunt Luo, we saw Luo Qiao in the paper, truly remarkable. Our whole neighborhood feels honored by association."
Zhou Guifang smiled, "Thank you all. Come over and visit when you have time. Qiaoqiao needs to catch her train, so we won’t stay long."
Luo Qiao smiled and waved to everyone before getting into the car. Watching the car drive away, the neighbors started asking questions.
Learning that Luo Qiao was to accompany the school’s exchange group to Shanghai, they couldn’t help but feel envious, wondering why such a child couldn’t be from their own family, endlessly offering their compliments.
After arriving at the train station, Lu Yichen took a bag from the trunk and whispered in Luo Qiao’s ear, "You didn’t get a good rest last night, sleep on the train to catch up. Here are some snacks I prepared for you. Take care of yourself out there, and come back early."
After locking the car, he escorted Luo Qiao inside the terminal, where someone was waving at them, "Luo Qiao, here, over here!"
Luo Qiao knew the girl was Ge Tiantian, one of the people responsible for the logistics of the exchange group. Luo Qiao approached, "Am I late?"
Ge Tiantian laughed, "No, no, we’ve just arrived and haven’t started checking tickets yet."
Luo Qiao greeted everyone and introduced Lu Yichen to them.
Lu Yichen took out a bag of candies and distributed them, "This is our wedding candy, wishing you all happiness. Please take good care of Luo Qiao for us while we’re apart."
The exchange group members all accepted with a smile, and Ge Tiantian jokingly assured, "Don’t worry, we’ll take very good care of her."
Lu Yichen stayed until Luo Qiao was settled on the train before stepping off. Waiting on the platform, he watched the train slowly leave the station until it was out of sight, then turned and left, feeling it was tough to be separated so soon after starting their marriage.
But as reluctant as he was, he knew he must support her work. He glanced once more in the direction of the departing train and quickly exited the station. He had tasks from his wife to take care of.
