Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 231 Closeness

The second day of the new year.

Lin Jianshe and Lin Qingxuan went out early in the morning to pick up Aunt Lin and Aunt Lin II respectively. Lin Qingyan's other two uncles were notified yesterday to gather at their house today.

So many relatives came to the house, but Lin Sheng, the eldest son of Lin Jianshe, was still at his mother-in-law's house.

"Qingxuan, before you go to your second aunt's house, go to your sister-in-law's house and tell your brother and his family that relatives are coming to your house today and ask them to come back."

Before Lin Qingxuan went out, Liu Huizhen arranged for Lin Qingxuan to make another trip.

By the time Lin Qingyan's two uncles and two aunts arrived with their children, it was already noon and Lin Qingyan had cooked the meal.

Liu Huizhen didn't see Lin Sheng, so she pulled Lin Qingxuan aside and asked:

"Did you go to your sister-in-law's house and tell your brother?"

"I went there and told my brother about it."

"Then why didn't they come back?"

"My sister-in-law said that her family is going to visit relatives today, so my brother is accompanying them."

Liu Huizhen paused silently without saying anything.

As soon as I turned around, I saw Aunt Lin San asked Lin Qingyan: "Qingyan girl, why are your brother and sister-in-law not at home?"

"My brother and sister-in-law went to visit relatives."

"Don't they know we're coming today? With so many of us at his house, he's still visiting relatives?"

Aunt Lin's voice was sharp and loud, and sounded very harsh.

"His third aunt, Lin Sheng's mother-in-law had some matters at her home, so he went to help." Liu Huizhen explained with a serious face.

Aunt Lin San saw Liu Huizhen's sullen face and did not dare to shout anymore.

"Did you help? Why did I hear that you split up?"

Aunt Lin was unwilling to give in, so she still muttered something in a low voice. Although it was a low muttering, the sound was actually quite loud, and at least everyone who should have heard it heard it.

"Divide the family? When did it happen?" Aunt Lin Da and Aunt Lin Er asked Lin Jianshe in surprise.

"We are preparing to divide the family business, but it hasn't been completed yet." Lin Jianshe said truthfully when he saw his two younger sisters.

"Why split up when everything is going well?"

Aunt Lin was somewhat disapproving, as her eldest son was already married and went to his mother-in-law's house today, so he did not come along.

"The children are grown up and they are married. It would be more comfortable for both sides to live separately. Qingyan, bring the dishes and let's get ready to eat." Liu Huizhen took over the topic with a smile.

Aunt Lin wanted to ask more, but Aunt Lin pulled her sleeve. She frowned and said nothing.

There were more than 5 adults and children from families, and one table could not accommodate them all, so they divided the table into two, with the elders at one table and the younger generation sitting at a small table on the side.

When Lin Qingyan and Aunt Lin Er brought all the dishes to the table, Aunt Lin San exclaimed.

"Sister-in-law, your family is so well off. You have so much meat. Where did you buy it from? We didn't buy any meat during the Chinese New Year, and our children didn't get to eat meat."

Aunt Lin San hurriedly sat down and started picking up food with chopsticks. She even picked up several pieces of meat and put them in the bowl.

Liu Huizhen frowned, but still replied, "Qingyan's friend bought it for me."

"Qingyan is a friend? Qingyan, what kind of friend? Introduce her to Auntie next time, so that you can buy some meat for your cousin and his family to improve their meals."

Aunt Lin San was eating meat at the moment, staring at Lin Qingyan and asking.

"Aunt San, he's a friend of a friend. He's not usually in Liao City and only comes back during the Chinese New Year. You can't buy it at other times."

Lin Qingyan smiled and declined.

"Qingyan, you wouldn't deliberately not introduce her to Auntie San, right?"

Aunt Lin San asked sinisterly, and Aunt Lin also looked at Lin Qingyan.

"Aunt San, he's really not in Liao City. If he were, he would definitely not push the money away."

"If you ask me, we should not be too selfish. We should give those who didn't buy meat a chance to buy some meat. Otherwise, some families won't be able to finish the meat, and some families won't even have meat to eat."

Aunt Lin was eating but she was still not giving in. She said something sarcastic and asked Aunt Lin something.

"Sister, don't you think this is the truth?"

Aunt Lin looked at her sister-in-law with disdain. She had always looked down on her and didn't want to deal with them too much. When she heard Aunt Lin's question, she couldn't help but look at the dishes on the table.

The meals at my eldest brother's house are richer this year, with fish and meat.

Aunt Lin, who had been invisible all this time, looked up and said:

"Third Aunt, you've already had the meat, haven't you? And you didn't spend any money on it. It tastes better than if you bought it yourself. Look, most of the meat in front of you has gone into your bowl."

As soon as Aunt Lin's mind was drawn to the meat on the table,

Lin Jianshe originally wanted to take out the wine and drink it, but before he could say anything, he saw the dishes on the table disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I sighed and could only suppress my urge to drink and wait until I was alone at night to drink.

The meal was eaten very quickly, and everything in the pot and on the table was eaten up. Just as Lin Qingyan got up to clean up, she was held down by Lin Ergu.

"Qingyan, sit down and have a rest. I heard from your mom that you cooked all the meals today. You must be exhausted. Play with your brothers and sisters for a while. Your mom and I will clean up."

"Thank you for your hard work, Second Aunt." Lin Qingyan said to Second Aunt Lin with a smile.

Second Aunt Lin also stood up and went forward to help, only First Aunt Lin and Third Aunt Lin just sat there without moving.

Lin Jianshe was chatting with his two younger brothers, and Aunt Lin Da and Aunt Lin San were also whispering something.

Lin Qingyan looked around and then took Lin Qingxuan and several cousins ​​to play in the yard.

Lin Qingxuan was having fun with his brothers and sisters while holding the spinning top that Lin Qingyan gave him.

The door was suddenly pushed open and two people rushed in from outside.
