Chapter 247

247 Uncle Is Back

To everyone’s surprise, at night, the Zhao family’s two families actually returned.

When Zhao Long and Zhao Liang saw their eldest sister appear at home, their eyes turned red.

“Sister, why didn’t you tell us you were coming back?! If others hadn’t asked me about your return, we wouldn’t have known!”

As they spoke, the two brothers hugged Zhao Xiu.

!!

The other two women stood and looked over with smiles, giving the siblings some space.

“You guys are already grown ups. Why are you guys still acting the same as when you guys were young?! You guys are already fathers now. You guys can’t act like this!” Zhao Xiu looked at her two younger brothers and teased them with red eyes.

“No matter how old we are, we’re still your younger brothers!” Zhao Long said.

“That’s right! Big Sister, why haven’t you come back to visit for so many years?! I’ve wanted to visit you for a long time, but there were so many things going on at home that we didn’t have the time! We originally planned to visit you after the new year, but we didn’t expect you to actually bring your family back!” Zhao Liang said.

“Sigh, some things have happened in the past few years. I’ll tell you guys in detail later! Let me take a look at my sisters-in-law, nephews, and nieces first!” Zhao Xiu felt that this wasn’t the time to talk about these things, so she walked in the direction of her two sisters-in-law.

“Sister!” Jin Xiaojing and Tan Wan smiled and shouted.

“I’m really sorry. You girls returned to your maiden families, but had to came back again!” Zhao Xiu said apologetically.

“Sister, what are you saying? We can go back to our parents’ house anytime, but it’s rare for you to come back. It’s only right for us to come back to see you!” Jin Xiaojing replied with a smile.

Jin Xiaojing was quiet and spoke gently.

However, if others thought Jin Xiaojing was easy to bully because of this, they would be wrong.

Jin Xiaojing was calm and quick-witted. She had many ways to deal with others, so no one could bully her.

“That’s right! Big Sister, Second Sister-in-law is right. It’s rare for you guys to come back, so we naturally have to come back and get closer to you!” Tan Wan was a little feisty, but she was straightforward and didn’t have any ill intentions.

Therefore, the sisters-in-law got along very well without any awkwardness.

At that time, when others bullied the Zhao family, the two of them would work together and were unrivaled in the village.

Therefore, the two brothers of the Zhao family had a good relationship. They helped each other, and their lives kept improving.

“The two of you are such sweet talkers!” As Zhao Xiu spoke, she waved at her children.

“Xiaoran, Little Qing, Luo Cheng, come and meet your uncles and aunts!”

On the other hand, Jin Xiaojing and Tan Wan also called their children over. Everyone was introduced to each other.

Li Xiaoran looked at the people in the courtyard and spent a lot of effort to remember them.

It had to be said that her two uncles had large families!

Li Xiaoran’s second uncle had two sons and two daughters, while her third uncle had two sons and a daughter.

Other than her eldest cousin, who had gotten married and given birth, the other children were all there.

For a moment, as the group of people were introduced, Li Xiaoran felt at a loss.

After the introductions, everyone got busy.

The Zhao family still had a lot of ingredients stored. In addition, Luo Cheng and the others had brought so many food, so there were a total of two tables of food.

Men at one table, women at another.

After dinner, everyone chatted amicably as they cleared the dining table. Then, they took a shower and went to bed early.

Fortunately, the Zhao family’s residence was spacious. The third son, Zhao Liang, had even built a new residence not far away, so Zhao Xiu and his family had a place to stay.

Fortunately, the Zhao family’s residence was spacious. The third son, Zhao Liang, had even built a new residence not far away, so Zhao Xiu and his family had a place to stay.

Therefore, Zhao Xiu slept in a large room with her two daughters.

Luo Cheng and Li Shun each slept on a small bed.

It had been a long day. As the moon appeared in the sky, everyone fell asleep.

The two eagle chicks that were following Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran also left before the sky turned dark.

Zhao Huaishan had said that the eagle would return to its nest to rest after dark, so Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran were not worried.

Early the next morning, Li Xiaoran heard the commotion outside and opened his eyes.

It had to be said that the air in Eagle Village was really good!

Most importantly, it was very quiet here. There wasn’t even the sound of a dog barking at night, so Li Xiaoran slept soundly.

When Li Xiaoran woke up, her two aunts were already busy making breakfast in the kitchen.

Seeing that Xiaoran had woken up, Jin Xiaojing smiled and said, “Did your third aunt and I disturb you?”

“No. I usually wake up at the same time! After I wake up, I can’t fall asleep anymore, so I just get up!” Li Xiaoran hurriedly explained, “Second Aunt, what are you cooking? It smells so good!”

“The rice noodles are being stir-fried in the pot. We’ll cook them later! The rice noodles your second aunt makes are superb. I guarantee that you’ll want to eat them again after you try them!” Tan Wan praised as she washed the peas.

“You just keep praising me! It’ll be embarrassing if it doesn’t taste good later!” Jin Xiaojing said with a smile.

“Sister-in-law, I’m confident in your skills. It will definitely taste good!” Tan Wan said with a smile.

“Rice noodles?” Li Xiaoran suddenly thought of something.

The people here actually liked rice noodles very much. Apart from rice noodles, they also liked sour and spicy noodles.

Speaking of which, Li Xiaoran hadn’t eaten rice noodles for a long time.

“Then we’re in luck! You’re making me drool!”

“Why are you drooling?” Li Xiaoqing ran out and asked when she heard them.

“Second Aunt is going to make us rice noodles! I’m drooling just by smelling this aroma!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile when she saw that her sister had come.

“Then let me help! Second Aunt, just cook more. I have a big appetite now. I have to eat a lot to fill my stomach!” Li Xiaoqing said bluntly.

Jin Xiaojing liked how direct Li Xiaoqing was. She opened the pot and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll soak them in water until they’re full! Teenagers like you eat the most! Not to mention you, even those kids at home eat a lot. If we don’t prepare more, we really won’t be able to fill their stomachs!”

Li Xiaoran was shocked to see a large pot of rice noodles soaked in it.

But on second thought, there were many children at home, so they ate a lot. No wonder they had to prepare so much.

“Then Xiao Qing and I will help! These onions and ginger have to be washed!” As Li Xiaoran spoke, she started to help.

Li Xiaoqing naturally didn’t stay idle and came over to help too.
