Chapter 1040: Chapter 1045: Blushed
"I still need to breastfeed, so let’s toast with tea instead of alcohol!"
Qiao Duo’er didn’t answer directly, but her meaning couldn’t be clearer. 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
According to local customs, the first and second days of the Lunar New Year are for visiting relatives and friends to exchange New Year’s greetings. Luo Qingfeng doesn’t have many relatives, so he will definitely come here.
Lu Kejun nodded and drained the wine in her quilt-covered glass.
The fragrance of the green plum wine was refreshing and lingered, enough to make her forget all her sorrows.
The most she would do after bringing Luo Qingfeng back was to behave better and spend more time with her own parents.
"Madam, what are you talking about?" Qing Xin scratched her head.
It felt like solving a riddle, which she hadn’t understood at all.
Qiao Duo’er put down her glass, "What I mean is that you should all toast Ke-kun, wishing her that her wishes may come true next year."
The others raised their glasses and said in unison, "Miss Lu, may your wishes come true tomorrow, and may everything be as you desire."
Lu Kejun’s face turned slightly red, but it was everyone’s kindness, and she couldn’t refuse.
After draining the wine in her glass, she felt her face getting even hotter.
Done for, how could she have gotten like this?
"The wine today seems quite strong, it’s all gone to my face."
Lu Kejun fanned herself with her hand, which wasn’t very effective, but it made her cheeks feel a bit better.
Qing Xin suddenly blurted out, "I know now, Miss Lu will definitely find an ideal husband next year!"
Qing Yue quickly pulled at Qing Xin’s clothes; this girl had never been able to hold her tongue since she was young, and might one day get herself into trouble with it.
Ugh, as her older sister, I’m almost worried to death!
Lu Kejun placed a piece of meat into Qing Xin’s bowl with her chopsticks, "Even eating won’t shut you up. Be careful or I’ll get your master to sell you off!"
"Miss Lu, please don’t take it against me, I don’t know anything..."
Qing Xin quickly begged for mercy.
But in her mind, she was secretly guessing who Miss Lu’s beloved was, probably Luo Qingfeng whom she’d been mentioning these past few days.
"Miss here has a big heart, I’ll let it slide this time," Lu Kejun said generously.
She wasn’t a mean person by nature.
After everyone had their fill, Granny Su told the help to clear the dishes and brought out fruits and desserts.
Qiao Duo peeled an orange, "These were all previously stored in the cellar; they don’t look very appealing, but they taste pretty good."
"I’ll try some too."
Lu Kejun gained a new understanding of the Tan Family.
She used to think the Tan Family was just a bit richer than the average household, but now it was clear that they simply didn’t like to show off their wealth.
The Tan Family’s standard of living was much higher than that of the wealthiest families in town.
What’s most valuable is that even though they are wealthy, they still adhere to the purest and simplest way of life.
These are the final hours of the year, and there was much to talk about. The Green Group and Tangyuan also didn’t want to miss out on the fun and quickly joined in.
"Oo oo..."
Tangyuan kept gazing longingly up at Lu Kejun.
Melted by the cuteness, Lu Kejun could only pick up Tangyuan, the big and the small having a great time together.
Meanwhile, Green Group looked around curiously from within Tan Zhenghong’s embrace, especially interested in the freshly pasted paper-cut windows.
"Green Group, come to Mommy," Qiao Duo clapped her hands.
Green Group never resisted his own mother, and immediately stretched out his arms.
Lu Kejun said disdainfully, "You little stinker, only wanting your mother to hold you. Are you afraid that your future wife will get jealous?"
Every time she tried to hold him, the little guy would twist and turn, completely uncooperative.
But in his mother’s arms, he was so well-behaved. Wasn’t it blatantly bullying?
