Spring River Chasing the Moon

The next morning.

Nan Younian and Zhou Xining were sleeping when they were awakened by the crowing of a rooster in the yard.

And the crowing sounds were heard one after another. It was not just the Luo family, almost every household in the village raised chickens and ducks.

Zhou Xinning hadn't gotten a good rest to begin with, and her mood became even worse after being woken up.

She got out of bed angrily, opened the window and said, "It's so noisy."

Not caring whether anyone heard it or not, he lay back on the bed, hugged Nan Yinbei and prepared to take a nap.

When Nan Younian heard Zhou Xining getting out of bed, he thought she was going to get up, but he didn't expect her to do this.

Seeing Zhou Xinning returning to the bed in a rage, Nan Younian found it somewhat amusing. He had never seen Zhou Xinning so childish before.

Nan Younian turned around and hugged her from behind, helping her cover her ears, "Sleep a little longer."

This time I took a nap and it was already noon.

The three of them finally made it downstairs before lunch. "Oh, you finally made it downstairs."

The speaker was Luo Tian's wife, Meng Ru.

She didn't have a good impression of Nan Younian's family. Nan Youmin took money from their house yesterday. She felt that it was all because Nan Younian didn't speak well of the Luo family. Otherwise, with their family background, they wouldn't have to care about that little money at all.

"Hello."

Nan Younian didn't notice the sour tone in Meng Ru's voice, and greeted her politely.

But Zhou Xinning heard it, especially the look in Meng Ru's eyes, that kind of contempt and disdain. As a woman herself, Zhou Xinning knew it too well.

She held Nan Younian's hand and told him not to go any further.

"If you don't welcome us, we can leave." Zhou Xinning's voice was neither loud nor soft, and Yang Qian heard it clearly.

She hurried over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Zhou Xining's unhappy face, and then looking at her eldest daughter-in-law sitting in front of her, she guessed that Meng Ru must have said something to offend Zhou Xining.

"Come here." Yang Qian said to Meng Ru.

When Luo Zhong was at home, Yang Qian doted on Luo Tian's family. Meng Ru knew that her mother-in-law was partial to her husband, so she had no scruples.

She thought Nan Younian would be as unpopular as Luo Zhong, so she wanted to mock them.

"Mom, look at her attitude." Meng Ru thought that Yang Qian would still stand on their side as before, so she immediately walked up to Yang Qian and complained first.

But she didn't expect Yang Qian to pull her directly in front of Zhou Xinning and said, "Apologize to Xinning."

Meng Ru was stunned. She didn't expect that Yang Qian would ask her to apologize to Zhou Xinning.

She looked at Yang Qian, puzzled, "Mom, why should I apologize to her? I don't want to."

Seeing that Yang Qian was about to get angry, Nan Younian quickly stopped her.

"Okay, it's no big deal, no need to apologize."

Seeing Nan Younian trying to mediate, Meng Ru became even angrier. He pushed Yang Qian's hand away and said, "I want you to pretend to be a good person." Then he went to his room upstairs, and Luo Tian followed him.

Yang Qian looked at Meng Ru's expression, and looked at Nan Younian and Zhou Xinning apologetically.

"Don't be offended, that's just her personality. She speaks a little directly."

Nan Younian nodded to show his understanding.

However, Zhou Xining was not satisfied with Nan Younian's behavior. She was too lazy to say anything more and just took Nan Yinbei to the dining table and fed her without caring whether others wanted to eat or not.

For the first time, Nan Younian felt that there really were irreconcilable conflicts between the husband's family and the daughter-in-law.

He thought of Zhu Yuying. When Zhou Xining was at the Nan family, she never had any conflicts with Zhu Yuying and her elder sister and sister-in-law. The family lived in harmony.

Suddenly, Nan Younian's thoughts seemed to return to the Nan family, the place where he had lived since he was a child.

When he was young, Nanzhou Yue and Nan Youmin spent most of their time in the study, where they often played chess and drank tea. Nan Qingqing would practice calligraphy in the living room, and for a while she was particularly obsessed with flower arranging.

He would accompany Zhu Yuying, occasionally taking walks in the courtyard, listening to music, and watching plays.

Every time it’s mealtime, the aunt at home would call them to eat one by one.

They will come out from every corner of the house to enjoy the food.

The meals cooked by the aunt at home are delicious and nutritious.

“Years…years…”

Yang Qian saw Nan Younian staring at the dining table without moving, and pushed his arm.

Nan Younian came back to his senses and looked at everything in the Luo family. The feeling he had just had at the Nan family was like a dream and disappeared completely.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

As Yang Qian was about to reach out to measure the temperature of his forehead, Nan Younian immediately dodged.

Perhaps feeling that his actions were too embarrassing, Nan Younian explained to Yang Qian.

"I'm fine, I was just thinking."

Yang Qian understood that he was not used to it yet, so she didn't take his dodging to heart.

She believed in blood ties, and that one day Nan Younian would know her love and devotion to him.

"We didn't formally introduce them yesterday. Your eldest brother Luo Tian, and that person just now was your sister-in-law Meng Ru. They both work in sales at the mall."

"They have a son, Luo Xin. He's a bit of a mischievous kid, and he's at his grandparents' house during the summer vacation. His uncle took a bunch of the kids hiking in the mountains today, so he didn't come."

Luo Jiasheng stood aside, watching Nan Younian's condition. Although he knew that he was absent-minded and perhaps still thinking about his previous life, the situation was now a foregone conclusion and he still had to integrate into this family as soon as possible, so he began to introduce the members of the Luo family.

"And there's our eldest sister, Luo Meng. She's a dance teacher at a training class and is quite busy, so she doesn't come back home often. She and your brother-in-law also have a son, Ding Yi."

"I've been working in the army and don't have much time to stay home on vacation. I have to go back right after dinner today. If you have any problems, you can talk to your family. If you feel uncomfortable or uncomfortable, please tell us. Don't be embarrassed."

"I know that your life in South City will definitely be much better than this family. All we can do is do our best to give you the best life. After all, we...we are a family. We hope that you will be happy and comfortable in this home."

Luo Jiasheng's words were sincere. He sincerely hoped that Nan Younian could accept them as soon as possible and become a real family.

It would be a lie for Nan Younian to say that he was not moved. He began to realize that the man in front of him was his biological father. He was not like Nan Zhouyue, who always had a serious expression on his face, which sometimes made people feel difficult to approach.

The man in front of him looked at him without reservation, and Nan Younian was a little touched.

"We will, don't worry."

"You will return to the troops later. Be careful on the road."

After thinking about it, Nan Younian still said a word of concern, which made Luo Jiasheng very happy.

He looked at Nan Younian, his eyes brightened a lot, and he immediately nodded and said.

"Okay, okay, I'll be careful."

It was a rare occasion that the atmosphere between the two of them was not so awkward. Yang Qian was also happy watching from behind, but Zhou Xining was the only one who rolled her eyes silently.
