Chapter 276: Chapter 274: A Hall of Laughter
In these barren lands, common people naturally cared more about the County Magistrate than the heir when the two were put together.
Because the County Magistrate affected their vital interests.
On the other hand, the heirs and princesses were too far away from them, and they felt unreal.
Thus, everyone was careful to watch County Magistrate Su, while County Magistrate Su sat carefully at the lower end of the table, smiling without closing his mouth.
People were constantly trying to get close to County Magistrate Su and others, and since County Magistrate Su is a smooth talker, naturally, they all had great conversations.
Gan Miaoruo sat next to Nan Tianzong, constantly trying to talk to him. Nan Tianzong, however, was having a good time chatting with Heir Luo beside him, only sparing her a moment’s attention when he was really annoyed.
Gan Miaoruo became angrier and angrier with her mouth pouted, but couldn’t make any open moves because Madam Gan Senior was watching her. She could only glare at Nan Tianzong for a while before she couldn’t sit still any longer. She slipped out and went straight to play with YingEr.
YingEr was annoyed by all the people in the room, and as soon as she saw Gan Miaoruo coming, the two immediately hit it off.
After a while, laughter came from the small room.
Everyone continued to enjoy their gathering, with laughter and lively conversation. Various pastries and candies were offered, and it wasn’t until night fell that everyone had their fill, and they dispersed to their homes.
Seeing that it was getting late, Liu Sisi intended to let Heir Luo and his sister, Madam Gan Senior, Granny Xu, and the others stay the night, but they politely declined.
As soon as everyone left, they were all so tired that they were nearly paralyzed.
“Third Sister-in-law, the bowls and chopsticks and the stove have been cleaned up. It’s getting late, so I’ll head back first. I don’t know if Ah-Bao is back yet.”
Cui’er took off her apron and spoke.
“Wait! I’ll get some food for your little brother and mom. You just take it back!”
Liu Sisi hurried into the kitchen.
“Third Sister-in-law, it’s not necessary. We have food at home too. You don’t have to bother, Third Sister-in-law…” Cui’er hastily followed.
Liu Sisi continued her injured movements, “We’re all sister-in-laws, why talk to me in such a roundabout way? Am I not clear about the situation in the old house?”
These words made the smile on Ms. Xin’s face disappear.
“Actually, it’s not bad like this. For us women, all we want is a man who knows our needs. Although Di Ah-Bao is a bit wild, everyone can see that he genuinely likes you. You are now a decent daughter-in-law. It’s time to let go of some of your old thoughts!”
Liu Sisi swiftly packed a basket of cooked dishes, thought for a moment, and took out twenty red-shell eggs from the bowl cabinet. She covered them with a piece of cloth and handed the bamboo basket to Cui’er.
Cui’er looked up at Liu Sisi and took the basket, suddenly smiling.
“Third Sister-in-law, you can call me Ms. Xin in the future! Cui’er is dead. I’ll go back first.”
Ms. Xin finished speaking and left Di family with the bamboo basket in hand.
A fresh start! That’s really nice!
She raised her head, and a fine rain began to fall in the sky again. It seems tonight, it’s going to change again.
