Jiang Laiwang curled his lip, looking disdainful: "That doesn't mean you can do what you do, eavesdropping on young couples in the middle of the night."

Zhou Meixia said unhappily, "You're a grown man, what do you know! Besides, didn't you listen?"

"Yes, yes, only a big old woman like you would know."

Jiang Laiwang was too lazy to argue with Zhou Meixia.

Zhou Meixia was too lazy to argue with Jiang Laiwang.

But she couldn't stand Jiang Laiwang's attitude that he thought her concern for Jiang Zao was unnecessary.

"Anyway, I know more than you. What do you know? All you do all day is arrange donkeys for people. Have you ever cared about Zao'er's marriage prospects? If it weren't for my help..."

"Alright, alright, stop talking!" Jiang Laiwang interrupted Zhou Meixia impatiently. "You're going on about that assistance again. If anything had gone wrong with that assistance, Zao'er would have been ruined!"

In fact, Jiang Laiwang felt terrified every time he thought about it.

So even if nothing went wrong, he didn't want to listen to Zhou Meixia nagging about those things.

Zhou Meixia knew that Jiang Laiwang harbored resentment.

I won't provoke him anymore.

"Forget it, let's not say anything more, let's go inside and sleep."

The elderly couple entered the house one after the other.

The noise from the two woke up Jiang Guo, who was not sleeping soundly.

She opened her eyes groggily and saw her parents standing under the bed.

He was still wearing clothes.

Jiang Guo yawned and asked sleepily, "Mom and Dad, where did you go?"

"I'm going to relieve myself, go to sleep." Zhou Meixia said casually and crawled into bed.

"Oh." Jiang Guo turned over and went back to sleep.

Jiang Laiwang also went into his own bed and went to sleep.

The room was quiet for a while.

Zhou Meixia suddenly spoke up: "Dad, I just remembered that Zao'er said she's leaving tomorrow afternoon."

Jiang Laiwang initially didn't want to talk to Zhou Meixia, but upon hearing this, he still asked, "So soon? Didn't you say you'd be staying home for a while?"

“Our son-in-law is worried about Zao’er and wants to bring her home to recuperate as soon as possible. It’s closer to the hospital there, so he can take care of her promptly if anything happens to her,” Zhou Meixia replied.

Jiang Laiwang nodded understandingly, "That's true. Zao'er is quite heavy, so it's not very convenient for her to stay at home. She can go back tomorrow."

The tone was somewhat disappointed.

His daughter, whom he had raised for over twenty years, suddenly became someone else's family.

He was completely unprepared to become a grandfather.

The daughter only stayed at her parents' home for one day before feeling uncomfortable.

Zhou Meixia sensed the emotion in Jiang Laiwang's words.

Rarely able to empathize with him, she comforted Jiang Laiwang: "A daughter is not meant to stay at home once she grows up. We should have been prepared for this a long time ago. Zao'er is getting married to live a better life. What good is it to stay at home? Think about it on the bright side. Zao'er's child will be a city person from birth and will have a bright future."

Although Zhou Meixia's words made a lot of sense, Jiang Laiwang still felt extremely disappointed.

He sighed and said, "I don't expect Zao'er to have a bright future; I just hope she can have a safe delivery."

Zhou Meixia said, "Of course, our Zao'er is so lucky."

"Mom and Dad, you're making too much noise." Jiang Guo was woken up by her parents' conversation.

"I'm not going to talk anymore, I'm going to sleep." Zhou Meixia covered Jiang Guo with the blanket and then fell silent.

The next morning, Jiang Zao was sound asleep when she heard rustling voices outside the door.

The sound wasn't loud, but it was annoying.

Jiangzao was woken up by the annoyance.

She opened her eyes to see who was talking outside and disturbing her sleep.

"woke up?"

As soon as Jiang Zao woke up, she heard Lu Yanxun's deep voice.

"Who's talking outside?" Jiang Zao was in a bad mood when she woke up, her voice filled with annoyance. "It's so noisy, tell them to shut up!"

The sound was neither too loud nor too soft, just enough to reach the ears of the person outside the door.

The outside world suddenly fell silent.

"It seems like we have some relatives visiting," Lu Yanxun replied.

Jiang Zao lifted the covers and remembered, and Lu Yanxun saw this and immediately went over to help her sit up.

What relatives do I have?

Jiang Zao's tone softened considerably after saying that.

Although her aunt and cousin, whom she didn't like, came yesterday, it didn't diminish her curiosity about the other relatives.

After all, she still had quite a few good relatives in her memories.

Furthermore, even though they may never have had it, Jiangzao has a very strong bias towards the word "relatives."

Unless they are particularly unpleasant relatives, she generally doesn't harbor hostility towards them.

"I don't know, it's a woman." Lu Yanxun shook his head.

He woke up and stayed inside the room without going out.

He had heard the noise outside the door a long time ago, but Jiang Zao hadn't woken up, so he didn't pay any attention to it.

"Is Zao'er awake?" Zhou Meixia knocked on the door.

"I'm awake, Mom," Jiang Zao replied. "Come in."

Zhou Meixia pushed open the door, but instead of coming in, she stuck her head out and said, "Your aunt is here. She came to see you specially. She's been here for a while, but seeing that you weren't awake, she didn't come in to disturb you."

"Auntie?" Jiang Zao's mind went blank for a moment.

My uncle and aunt came yesterday, and today my aunt came too.

Jiang Zao quickly found memories of her aunt in her mind.

Her aunt seemed to be a good person; she was only eight years older than her and was her mother's youngest sister.

She not only has a good relationship with her mother, but she has also had a very good relationship with her since childhood.

“Yes, your aunt was worried that if you went home early, she wouldn’t be able to find you if she came late, so she came very early this morning,” Zhou Meixia said with a smile.

"Mom, please let Auntie in."

"Little Jujube?" Jiang Jujube's aunt, Zhou Meixiang, stood at the door and smiled at Jiang Jujube. "Did I disturb you just now? I heard you talking."

"Auntie!" Jiang Zao greeted Zhou Meixiang with a smile. "I didn't disturb you. Why didn't you call me earlier when you arrived?"

Zhou Meixiang walked in: "I didn't call you because I was afraid of disturbing your sleep, but I still disturbed your sleep."

"No." Jiang Zao shook her head and beckoned her aunt to sit by the bed.

Zhou Meixiang sat down by the bed, staring at Jiang Zao's face for a long time before sighing, "She's even fairer than before. Our little Zao'er is getting prettier and prettier."

"And this belly, it's much bigger than last time I saw it." Zhou Meixiang happily touched Jiang Zao's belly and joked, "Little Zao, you're so capable. You've made your aunt a great-aunt so quickly. But when the child calls me great-aunt, she'll make me sound old."

Jiang Zao smiled and held Zhou Meixiang's hand, "What are you saying, Auntie? Even if you become an aunt, you'll still be the youngest and most beautiful aunt."

As Jiang Zao talked to Zhou Meixiang, she reminisced about her aunt.

She and her aunt grew up together and have a very good relationship.

My aunt married into the village next door, and her child is only five years old this year.

Before Jiang Zao got married, I often went to her house to play.

After dropping out of junior high school, I took care of her child for two years.

The bond between them is much stronger than that between ordinary relatives.

"Auntie, where's Huanhuan? Didn't she come with you?" Jiang Zao asked her little cousin.

Zhou Meixiang: "She's still sleeping at home, she hasn't gotten up yet, so I didn't bring her. I'll bring her to see you when you give birth."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Lu Yanxun and greeted him, "My nephew-in-law is here too."
