Chapter 780 It’s Great to Wait for You to Come

In the main hall.

Qin Yao and his wife led Xu Wenqing's nephew and grandson into the house.

Everyone in the house hurriedly stood up to greet them. Because they didn't know the other party's true identity, they treated them as the children's elders and greeted them warmly.

Xu Jiajia also followed Si Niang around and called everyone.

Perhaps she had never seen a family like Qin Yao's, Xu Jiajia seemed very excited.

She had many questions.

Why are there so many people in the Liu family who are not surnamed Liu, but they are so gentle to their classmates like family members.

And Liu's uncle, who is so young, looks like a brother when he smiles, not an uncle.

However, the family taught etiquette well, so Xu Jiajia did not ask the question on the spot.

After Si Niang asked her parents and Grandma Xu for permission and got permission, she pulled Xu Jiajia to the gate.

The three brothers of Dalang followed closely behind.

The sound of firecrackers that had just been interrupted rang again, mixed with the cheers of the children from the neighbor's house.

Xu Jiajia's laughter was also among them. For the little girl, setting off firecrackers was a game that was her first time in her life. It was fun and exciting.

Xu Wenqing sat down in front of the stove, listening to the noise coming from outside the house. He looked at the window with gentle eyes and said:

"My two brothers from my mother's family, a niece, and two nephews all died on the battlefield. Now, in the third generation of my mother's family, only Jiajia was raised by me since she was a child and never went to the frontier, so she grew up."

As soon as these words were spoken, the lively atmosphere in the house changed instantly.

Everyone looked at Qin Yao and Liu Ji and his wife awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.

Qin Yao secretly waved her hand, signaling everyone to leave first.

Liu Ji had wanted to escape a long time ago, and with Qin Yao's instruction, he immediately led everyone away.

Qin Feng felt a little strange. His cheap brother-in-law's reaction to Xu's aunt was too intense. Even if he tried his best to hide it, the fear and awe in his eyes could not be concealed.

But Qin Feng also knew that it was not the time to ask, so he could only leave first and ask his sister after the other people left.

Soon, only Qin Yao and Xu Wenqing, who was still reminiscing, were left in the room.

Yin Le left hot milk tea and dried fruit cakes for the guests. Qin Yao poured a cup of hot milk tea, sprinkled a handful of dried fruit in it, put a silver spoon on it, and handed it to Xu Wenqing.

She looked back and looked at the mellow milk tea mixed with dried fruit. She was stunned for a long time before reaching out to take it.

Qin Yao thought she was on guard and deliberately said, "There is no poison in my house."

"Of course, there are no outsiders in the house now. If you are worried, just ask the secret guard to come out to test the poison. I don't mind." Qin Yao added.

After speaking, he scooped two large spoons of dried fruit soaked in milk tea into his mouth and chewed it with satisfaction.

Feeling that the taste was not rich enough, he took a small piece of egg cake and put it in his mouth, took a sip of fragrant milk tea, and leaned back comfortably.

Xu Wenqing didn't speak until this moment.

Following Qin Yao's example, she also took a quick egg cake and ate it, and then took a sip of milk tea.

As she ate, Xu Wenqing laughed, and looked at Qin Yao with some envy, "What else did you make?"

Qin Yao replied, "I also made some dumplings and so on. I'm too lazy to cook them. You can ask someone to make them for you when you go back."

Xu Wenqing looked at her speechlessly, and then shook his head and laughed, "You are not polite enough to invite me to dinner or something?"

"Do you have time?" Qin Yao raised her eyebrows and asked back.

Xu Wenqing was silent.

She really didn't have that much time, and she came here today only when she had time.

But she felt that it was worth coming today.

"What do you do on weekdays? Just eat and drink?" Xu Wenqing asked curiously.

Qin Yao smiled with her lips curled, and took out a few sketchbooks from the high table behind her and handed them over.

"What?" Xu Wenqing asked suspiciously. But he honestly put down the food and took the several books.

When I opened it, I saw a comic book with a picture of a little man.

And the story was very easy to understand. It was either a woman who loved a man or a man who loved a woman. After a few words of dialogue, they hugged each other directly.

Xu Wenqing looked at Qin Yao's proud expression in shock. I didn't expect you to be such a woman!

But the painter's brushwork was superb. Whether it was a man or a woman, they all looked as handsome and beautiful as gods.

However, not all books were so straightforward and hot. Some of them told folk stories about mountain spirits and monsters.

Xu Wenqing flipped through them all roughly. Maybe because she was old, she was not very interested.

"It's great."

She sighed when she returned the comic book to Qin Yao.

Qin Yao asked her what was good.

Xu Wenqing said, "It's great that I can still wait for you to come."

Because before she appeared, she was really lonely and lonely.

"Do you think you belong to this world?" Xu Wenqing asked curiously.

The reason she asked was because she never felt that she belonged to this world.

It has been fifty years since she was a baby. Looking back, it was like watching a role-playing game.

And she was just a character in the game, not the real her.

Qin Yao didn't think so deeply, "I think it's good to live in hope."

The scene of the end of the world, she always felt it was an unreal nightmare when she thought about it.

"It seems that you had a hard life in the past." Xu Wenqing said firmly.

Qin Yao shrugged, "It's okay, you'll get used to it."

The sound of firecrackers outside the house stopped at some point.

The four siblings led Xu Jiajia, who was still not satisfied, back to the main hall and found snacks on the table. Xu Jiajia winked at Si Niang.

Si Niang understood and gave her some of everything, letting her grill it over the fire and eat slowly.

Xu Wenqing asked with concern: "Is it cold?"

Xu Jiajia's cheeks bulged after eating, she shook her head and said vaguely: "It's not cold, it's interesting, it's fun."

The three Dalang brothers stood aside and smiled a little awkwardly.

Xu Wenqing looked at the three brothers and joked to Qin Yao: "None of them look like you, but they are all quite handsome."

"Handsome?" Xu Jiajia and Siniang both looked over and asked, "What is handsome?"

Qin Yao explained: "It means handsome and good-looking."

The two little girls said oh and learned a new word.

"Auntie, I'm full." Xu Jiajia patted the cake crumbs in her hands with a satisfied look on her face.

I didn’t forget to say to Qin Yao: “Aunt Qin, your food is so delicious, even better than the food in the imperial kitchen!”

After finishing speaking, he suddenly realized that he had let something slip. Like a frightened little squirrel, he glanced at Xu Wenqing in a panic, his brain was spinning rapidly, and he explained lamely:

"Aunt Qin, what I mean is that your food is very delicious. It should be better than the ones in the imperial dining room in the palace. Although I have never eaten in the imperial dining room, hehe~"

Sanlang laughed, "I thought you had eaten at the imperial dining room, and I was just about to ask you what delicious food there is in the imperial dining room."

The result is a mouthful.

Xu Jiajia hummed, "When I go, I'll tell you what's delicious."

He turned back to Si Niang and whispered, "Your third brother is so greedy."

Sanlang's eyes widened: "I heard you say I'm greedy!"

Xu Jiajia: "."
