Chapter 1368: Enlightenment
He felt a darkness in front of him, as if his body and soul had separated.
His mind was clear, aware that he was watching their warm scene, but why couldn’t his eyes see?
Yang Run Tai noticed his uncle’s loss of composure and quickly grabbed his wrist.
Yang Zhongyi turned his head in confusion to look at his nephew, who was a bit shorter than him.
"Uncle. You have to understand that what’s meant for you won’t escape, and what’s not is not worth forcing."
Wei Kaiyun also noticed them, but didn’t say anything. He was busy moving luggage with Lv Family father and son.
"He Run."
"Uncle, do you trust me?"
Yang Zhongyi nodded blankly.
"Then let it go."
"Jing Chu, I haven’t eaten yet."
"What do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine."
"There’s porridge at home."
Chaoyang pulled a bitter face, "Porridge won’t fill me up. Can you make something dry for me?"
"Alright, I’ll make you some pancakes."
Jing Chu didn’t realize how relaxed and comfortable she felt talking to Chaoyang.
This was also the reason why Yang Zhongyi felt so affected.
Shi Jing and Jianbin helped with the luggage. Jiang Xinyu walked over with a smile.
"Aunt Wei, the three of us siblings would like to stay at your place."
"Sure, there’s a room. But you and Zhenyu will share a room with Shi Jing and the others. Yujie will have her own room."
"Thank you, Aunt Wei. Sorry to bother you."
"Don’t be so polite. Zhongyi, come and sit inside." She also noticed that Yang Zhongyi was feeling very down.
The luggage was all moved in. Shi Xian ran over and hugged his mother’s leg.
"Mom, did you miss me?"
"I missed you. Have you been behaving?"
"Yes, yes, but I did make a mistake. I broke Uncle Li’s vase."
"Did you apologize?"
"Yes, I did."
"Good, did you realize your mistake?"
"Yes, I’ll be careful next time."
Tingting also ran over and hugged Jiang Xinyu’s other leg, looking up and smiling at her mother.
Li Yungui came over again. Li Xue was happy to see her relatives.
"Second uncle, is second aunt at home?"
"She’s in the fields, planting sorghum. Your second aunt said not to go into the fields, she’ll be back soon. Your sister-in-law is at home."
Lv Beiguang also came over smiling, talking to Li Yungui.
"Welcome, in-laws, from now on we can live together."
"Ha ha, yes, from now on this is my home too."
The group went inside. The women went to arrange the luggage, and the children also went to sort their things.
Yang Run Tai stayed by Yang Zhongyi’s side the whole time. He had never seen his uncle like this before. He was usually such a bright and cheerful person, but now he seemed lifeless. He was truly affected.
Since meeting Lv Jingchu, he realized that the pretty girl was very pure and, you could even say, a bit naive. She genuinely wasn’t interested in his uncle. It wasn’t because of any external reasons.
So there was no need for his uncle to try. But this was his uncle’s own matter; he would just provide some analysis. As for what to do, he didn’t have the right to say anything.
Feifei took Yang Yujie to the vacant room.
"Feifei, your family has so many people. Our family also has many, but they don’t live together."
"It’s lively like this. Shall we spread your luggage together?"
"Sure." After all, she’s the older sister. Although she hadn’t done this at home before, she couldn’t show fear in front of her little sister.
The two of them worked quite efficiently. After placing the bedding, they arranged the toiletries and put the clothes in the wardrobe.
Yang Yujie had quite a few clothes with her, as girls love beauty.
Once everything was done, "Feifei, let me help you."
Jiang Feifei nodded with a smile. As the hostess, it was her job to host the little guest girl.
"Feifei, your room is so pretty."
"Is it pretty? It’s just okay."
Their work was the same, but Feifei had more clothes, all the latest fashion from the Capital.
"Feifei, this dress is so beautiful."
"Uncle Han bought all of them. Do you like it? Want to try it on to see if it fits? I don’t like dresses, and I don’t have a place to wear them anyway."
Yang Yujie shook her head, "No, it was a gift from Uncle Han, how could I take it?"
"Big sister, if you don’t take it, it’ll just stay in the wardrobe."
"I can’t fit in it." While Feifei was only a head shorter than her, it was clear that the dress fit Feifei perfectly, and even if she wanted it, it wouldn’t look good.
After tidying up, they went outside to see if their brothers needed help.
Jianbin and the others had already organized their luggage. The boys didn’t have many accessories, but a lot of clothes, all newly bought by Han Xiangjun.
"You two are quite fast."
"Yeah. Do you need any help?"
The three boys shook their heads. "My big brother doesn’t let anyone touch his stuff, best let him handle it."
The five of them came out of the room. "Sister, do you want to go outside and see the land? Although there’s not much out there right now."
"Sure, let’s go play outside."
Jiang Feifei decided to be a good hostess, so they went to find Jiang Xinyu together.
"Mom, the five of us are going out to play, we won’t bring Shi Xian."
"Alright, just don’t go up the mountain and stay away from the riverbank."
Shi Xian happened to be away, otherwise, he would definitely want to join.
The five kids went out to play. Jiang Xinyu continued tidying up. It wasn’t a quick task.
The men went to Lv Beiguang’s house. "In-law, everything is set up, the furniture is the dowry from my big brother for Xue’er. We can’t have a lavish wedding, so this will have to do."
"We feel terribly embarrassed as it is." Lv Beiguang currently had two thousand yuan, and already owed Xinyu four thousand.
They would have to repay it slowly. After all, the house and wedding feast required a lot of money.
"Second Brother Li, this house is really nice."
"Yes, it’s very solid. Even the cellar is built with stones.
In-law, I’ve checked, and the furniture will be ready in a week. The house is quite damp now."
"Hmm, for now, we’ll stay at Xinyu’s place. In-law, how should we arrange the wedding feast?"
"My big brother’s idea is to have both the groom’s and bride’s sides together, and treat the whole village to a meal."
"No need, no need, we’ll handle it. It wouldn’t be right to have the bride’s side pay."
"Ha ha, once my big brother arrives, you can discuss it among yourselves. The village has pigs, chickens, and eggs. The rest, like vegetables and tofu, is easy to handle."
Wei Kaiyun, holding his son, took a walk around the yard and also thought the house was nice.
"Second Brother Li, how much does the masonry cost?"
"With labor and materials, it’s seven hundred fifty, plus fifty for the stones. The cellar wasn’t originally reinforced with walls. I thought it wouldn’t be sturdy enough, so I added a few truckloads of stones."
