The groom was kidnapped on the wedding day? Fine! I'll marry someone else.

Xu Jianping teased them deliberately: "Why don't you, Tangtang Guoguo, follow your uncle to our place? Your grandparents, dad, and mom will be here tomorrow anyway."

Tang Tangguo actually agreed: "Okay, okay!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Jianhua, who had always been particularly distressed and reluctant to leave them, suddenly said loudly: "No, no, your uncle can't take you there today."

After he finished speaking, he realized that his reaction was a bit exaggerated. Afraid that the adults would get suspicious, he quickly lowered his voice and said to them very gently, "Tangtang Guoguo, I have to go back to help prepare the New Year's Eve dinner. I won't have time to play with you. I'll pick you up very early tomorrow morning and take you to your second uncle's pig farm to see the pigs, okay?"

The two little ones were easy to coax. When their uncle said he was busy and couldn't play with them, they nodded and agreed, "Okay."

After everyone left, Huanhuan insisted on following Xu Jianhua and the others back home: "Every time Mom comes, I can't stay up with my brothers and them. This year, I want to stay up with them."

Doctor Chang coaxed her: "Huanhuan, we will go to Aunt Zhang's house tomorrow. Stay here with Mom tonight. Mom hasn't come for a few months. Don't you miss her?"

"No! I want to go with my brother."

As Huanhuan spoke, she became very emotional and actually started to cry.

Her reaction shocked everyone.

Zhang Hongmei was even more distressed and quickly picked her up and comforted her: "Huanhuan, don't cry. If you want to go back with me, then go back with me."

Everyone was busy coaxing her, and they all told Huanhuan to follow the Xu family.

Zhang Hongmei also asked Dr. Chang to follow her.

Doctor Chang felt embarrassed to do so, and thinking about having to take his daughter away on the third day of the junior high school entrance examination, he finally let her go tonight.

After the Xu family left, Dr. Hu shook his head and said worriedly, "Huanhuan and Jianhua get along so well. I don't know if she can adapt if we take her back."

Doctor Chang was also worried about this, but said, "I can't always leave her here. When Jianhua goes to elementary school, Huanhuan can go with him, and he can help take care of her. But when Jianhua goes to junior high school, Huanhuan will definitely not be able to keep up, and we will be in different places by then."

Especially since Xu Jianhua is older now, it would not be good for her to leave her daughter here, but she didn't say this out loud.

Dr. Hu thought about it and said nothing more.

Not long after, Uncle San and Jiang Jun came over to call Jiang Yi and the others.

A few days ago, everyone agreed that Xu Yu's family would go to their house for New Year's Eve dinner tonight, and at this time, the two families happened to go to visit their ancestors' graves.

This time, Tangtang Guoguo and Jiang Jun's son were also taken to the ancestral grave.

After returning from the provincial capital to treat his leg, Jiang Jun has been recuperating at home. However, in addition to recuperation, he is still doing wood carving.

Because he could stand on his feet, he worked much faster than before. He was particularly talented in this area and had a flexible mind. He even designed some wood carving patterns himself. When Xiao Tang and others came to collect the wood carvings, they all thought his designs were beautiful. When they went back and told Director Wu about it, Director Wu directly gave him extra design fees.

So he made a lot of money in the past few months.

He told them: "After the New Year, when my legs have recovered better, I will ask the furniture factory if they are hiring. I want to work there directly."

Xu Yu said, "You are a technical talent, the furniture factory will definitely want you."

Jiang Jun smiled shyly: "Hope."

As soon as the group of people arrived near the ancestral tomb, they saw Jiang Laoer and his family already waiting there.

When they saw Jiang Yi and the others, they immediately smiled ingratiatingly.

Jiang Lao Er even rubbed his hands and greeted Jiang Qingyun and the others: "Brother, Jiang Yi, Xiaoyu, you are here."

Jiang Gang and Jiang Lei also hurried to greet them.

Today, only the three uncles came to visit the grave.

The three of them stood there with their necks hunched, looking like three quails with their necks hunched.

After greeting Jiang Qingyun and the others, the three of them even politely greeted Jiang Laosan and Jiang Jun.

Even the three children laughed and teased them.

Tangtang Guoguo had never come into contact with Jiang Laoer's family, so she stood next to Xu Yu and Jiang Yi and looked at them curiously.

Although Jiang Jun's son Chuanchuan had seen them before, he had a bad impression of them and thought they were going to steal their things again. He immediately grabbed Jiang Jun's hand with a frightened look on his face.

The father and his two sons were immediately embarrassed.

It was Jiang Qingyun who said, "Let's go to the grave."

Then, under his leadership, everyone put out the food and drinks they brought, and burned paper and offered incense.

After setting off firecrackers and collecting food and drinks, Jiang Laoer saw that his eldest and third brothers were about to leave, so he quickly called out to them, "Brother, third brother, please come to our house tonight for the New Year reunion. The three of us brothers haven't gotten together in years. We've all made some money this year, so we have the means..."

Jiang Qingyun interrupted him: "Let's eat at Lao San's house tonight."

The smile on Jiang Er's face was a little faltering. He stole a glance at Jiang Yi and Xu Yu. His main purpose in suggesting that everyone get together was to get them to help his two sons, so he thought quickly and said, "Let's go to the third brother's house for dinner. We can go and cook together."

Except for his two sons and three children, everyone else looked at him with a look of "How can you be so shameless?"

Jiang Lao Er pretended not to notice their expressions and said with a look of remorse: "Brother, we were wrong before. We know we were wrong. Can you give us a chance to make amends?"

"Don't worry, you are our eldest brother, and Jiang Yi is the eldest brother of their generation. From now on, we will listen to whatever you say and will never do anything rash."

"If you don't like Cuihua, I'll tell her not to appear in front of you in the future."

Xu Yu and the others watched their second uncle performing without saying a word.

Jiang Qingyun waited until he finished speaking before speaking: "When life was tough for everyone, you didn't treat me like your elder brother. Now that life is better, it's all good for everyone."

Hearing this, Xu Yu silently gave his father-in-law a thumbs up in his heart.

Uncle Jiang was about to say something when Jiang Yi spoke up, "Let's go."

After saying that, he picked up Tang Tangguo, signaled Xu Yu with his eyes, and then left first.

Jiang Qingyun took the food and drinks he had brought and followed him.

"Big brother..."

Jiang Lao Er wanted to catch up.

At this moment, Jiang Jun suddenly said, "Isn't it too late for Second Uncle to curry favor with Uncle and the others at this time?"

Jiang Lao Er turned around and glared at him unhappily, about to yell at him.

Jiang Jun just took Chuanchuan away and ignored him completely.

He was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and finally stared at Uncle Jiang.

Thinking that the two were brothers, as the younger brother, he couldn't just sit there and watch his brother suffer, but he was used to acting like an older brother in front of the third child, and he said to him directly:

"Third brother, don't forget that we are brothers. We didn't treat you that badly back then. Now that your family is doing well, do you really not care about your brother's life or death? Don't forget that our parents are still with us. If we hadn't supported them, how could you have lived a good life without any burden?"

"If you don't help our family, then we'll let Mom and Dad live in your house for their retirement. Also, let's calculate how much our family has spent on Mom and Dad over the years, and we must share the cost equally."

Uncle Jiang looked up at his second brother and opened his mouth. He wanted to say that even if Mom and Dad lived with you, we wouldn't lose a cent of what we owed them, but he didn't think it was necessary to argue with his second brother. He still had to rush back to prepare New Year's Eve dinner for his eldest brother and his family. So, seeing the smug look on Jiang Laoer's face that said, "I don't want you to be bullied," he said, "Okay, we'll take turns taking care of Mom and Dad."

Jiang Lao Er: "..."

……

Not long after Xu Yu's family went to his third uncle's house, his grandparents came.

The two old people were also interesting. As soon as they arrived, they gave the candies in their pockets to Tangtang Guoguo to eat.

He kept calling his great-grandchildren, as if he loved them very much.

The candies were too unfamiliar to them, and the two little ones were the best at observing people, so they knew who was really good to them. When they saw them giving them candies and smiling at them, the two little ones ran directly to Jiang Yi and Xu Yu and pulled their pants.

Guoguo even said to Xu Yu: "Mom, those two people look like Grandma Wolf."

Recently, Xu Yu's bedtime story happened to be Little Red Riding Hood and Grandma Wolf. Guoguo remembered it most clearly. She pouted and said, "They also gave candy to my brother and me. There must be poison in the candy."

Tangtang said with a stern face, "They look bad at first glance. My sister and I ignore them."
