Translator: 549690339
It has always been heard that the inhabitants of the wing room would go to the old house for the New Year’s Eve dinner, but never heard of the old house’s occupants coming to the wing room for it!
The one to suggest this must be affiliated with Ms. Wang’s manipulation, even without Liu Sisi present would know this for sure!
But this works out just fine!
She noticed that despite her father’s slightly angered expression, more of joy was mixed within.
Even the way he looked at her held a subtle plea. She had seen this pleading look also in her grandfather’s eyes in her previous life. It was when her parents had passed away, and those so-called relatives came to kick her while she was down, her grandpa had shown such a look!
This look often flashed in her mind during those midnight dreams. Seeing her father show such a look, Liu Sisi’s heart immediately softened.
“You should be the one to handle this!”
Di Yelei’s face was red, even his dark complexion couldn’t hide his embarrassment.
“Chuckles! You’re shrinking back like this, where’s the behavior of a man of the house?”
Liu Sisi was amused by him!
“I meant what I said earlier, no matter what, that’s your brother, and they are your family. Plus, guests have arrived, and who has the principle to shun them away? Isn’t the purpose for everyone to gather to celebrate reunion? Go ahead and greet them!”
Even while speaking, she gave him a gentle push.
Seeing Liu Sisi was serious, Di Yelei finally loosened up and showed a big smile.
“Good Sisi, you are truly my Di Yelei’s lucky star!”
He stretched out his arms to hug her. But when she glared back, he quickly let go and started laughing. He then turned around, calling out loudly to welcome everyone to their seats.
“Come on everyone! Come quickly and gather. First, let’s offer our respects to our Di ancestors, then we can start eating”
His voice was particularly loud and excited!
It was also filled with so much pride that it made Liu Sisi raise an eyebrow in surprise.
It turned out that such matters could make him so joyful!
Ms. Wang’s eyes were darting around. This matter was naturally her idea..
Hum! Who would let that damned elderly woman make such a nonsensical suggestion of having this year’s New Year’s Eve dinner at her place? Where she wouldn’t lift a hand and incessantly talk. Not to mention Di Ah-Bao, that lazy freeloader or the flirt that’s always promiscuous, she didn’t care for them, not one bit!
Procrastinating while the day was gradually growing darker, her stove hadn’t started burning, she was helplessly lamenting over the scarce meat. At this time, Di Yelei rushed into the courtyard.
Her eyes shifted, seizing the opportunity of that elderly woman always wanting to be by her father-in-law’s side. Sure enough, a few of her words provoked them, saving herself from wasting any meat and instead got to feast on a huge table of delicious food!
She couldn’t help but rub her hands together, with a snicker on her face. This Ms. Wang was truly visionary!
Elderly Mr. Di didn’t say a word, and sat down while lighting the incense to offer to their ancestors, inserted the incense, and burned some paper money, then lighting the firecrackers…
After completing a series of trivial and complex tasks, they started to worship the ancestors from the oldest to the youngest, from the largest to the smallest.
