168 Chapter 168 New Year (4)

“Not really. You can go inside and chat with them, as just us being here will be enough.” Mrs. Guo turned her head and spoke with a smile.

Zhou Ying’s status was different from before. Mrs. Guo might need to ask her for assistance in the future, so she couldn’t order her around like before.

“Yes, yes, don’t worry about it. If there are too many people here, it will hinder our movement anyway.” Mrs. Sun quickly echoed.

“Alright, if you need anything, just call me.” Zhou Ying reminded them as she turned around and walked back to the living room.

“Ying, you’re here. Come and sit with Grandma.” As soon as Madam Qiao saw her come in, she immediately waved her hands.

Zhou Ying paused and sat next to Madam Qiao after greeting several other elders. She looked at the dark green top she was wearing and said, “Grandma, you look lovely in this color.”

“Really? I do quite like this color, and it’s all thanks to you.” When Madam Qiao said this, she sized her up and asked, “Why aren’t you wearing any new clothes during the new year?”

“I’m wearing new clothes too. As for my New Year’s clothes, I’m planning to wear them tomorrow, which is the actual day of the New Year.” She explained as she drew her Burgundy cloak.

“That’s lovely. You’re still young, so you should make more clothes to wear when you have the money. Otherwise, you’ll look like a bucket no matter what you wear when you’re old and out of shape. You won’t look good in them then.”

“I’ll do as you advise, then.”

“By the way, you’ve been married for more than three months. Are there any movements in your body?”

Her question stumped Zhou Ying. She quickly realized what she meant when she saw Madam Qiao’s eyes staring at her stomach.

“There’s no hurry. We’re still young and want to save up some money, so we’ll wait until things have completely stabilized before trying for one,” she said, smiling.

“That’s true. You wake up early and sleep late at night daily, so it’s not suitable for you to have one now.

“However, you have to do it while you’re still young. It’ll be hard for you to have children when you’re older.”

“I’ll take that to heart, Grandma.” Zhou Ying nodded.

Mrs. Liu sneered as she ate melon seeds while looking at them happily chatting, especially at Madam Qiao. How could she not know that this old hag disliked the poor and favored the rich?

If Madam Qiao had treated Zhou Ying like this back then, their family would be the ones getting wealthy.

However, since her son and her husband had repeatedly warned her, she only treated them as background noise and continued eating her melon seeds.

When Mrs. Yao saw this, she was happy about Mrs. Liu’s loss but also didn’t want to offend Zhou Ying again. Thus, she was happy enough to watch the drama between them.

Father Gu, Second Uncle Gu, and Gu Chengzhi were all reserved and quiet on the men’s side.

Only Gu Chengye and Gu Chengxi kept Gu Chengrui company and chatted with him about all kinds of topics, from mathematics to food.

Gu Chengxi thought of hotpot and smiled awkwardly. “Chengrui, I haven’t eaten hotpot before. When are you going to treat me to a meal? Father did say it’s delicious.

“I heard good things, especially about the tripe. “I heard it’s numbing, spicy, chewy, and that anyone who eats it will want to eat more.”

“Ahem.” Second Uncle Gu coughed and quipped, “If you want to eat it, just say you want to eat it. Don’t drag me into the conversation.”

Gu Chengxi secretly pouted. He had been taught to be honest, but in the end, the person who taught him didn’t do the same—the hypocrisy.

Seeing this, Gu Chengrui smirked internally and said, “There’s no problem if you want to eat a hotpot. How about we have lunch there tomorrow afternoon?”

“Really?” Gu Chengxi was overjoyed. Then, as if afraid Gu Chengrui would regret his decision, he quickly turned his head to his father. “Father, I’ll go to third brother’s house for lunch tomorrow. You don’t have to wait for me for lunch.”

“Go, but don’t cause trouble, understand?” Second Uncle Gu said it through gritted teeth.

At the same time, he cursed inwardly, “This little heartless brat. He isn’t even going to suggest bringing his father along with him for such a good opportunity.”
