Chapter 611(1/2)
It was Mr. Ruan's seventieth birthday. Since Xiang Yisen came back early, Yu Qing thought that they would also go to the provincial capital a day or two in advance.
After arriving in the provincial capital, I need to rest for a day or two before I can feel energetic enough to attend Mr. Ruan’s birthday banquet.
I bought the train tickets for the afternoon and the whole family packed their luggage at home in the morning.
Yu Qing pulled Xiang Yisen into the studio. There were many packages next to the delivery basket in the warehouse. These were all gifts purchased online recently and were going to be taken to the provincial capital for their families.
"What should I do with these gifts? Should I check them in or take them out here in the provincial capital?" How to take out this large number of gifts is a headache.
Xiang Yisen thought for a while and said, "It's still early now. Let's drive to the train station to check in the goods at this time. These goods will arrive in the provincial capital almost tomorrow. Then I will take my uncle and the others to the train station and use the car to transport them."
go home."
Yu Qing checked the package: "If we want to consign it to the provincial capital, we don't need to dismantle these large items and take them directly to the train station for consignment. We dismantle all the small packages and put them together into a large carton for easy consignment."
"Okay, you go find a big cardboard box and leave it here to me." Xiang Yisen picked out all the small packages.
The various candies I bought were all in big bags, each bag weighing almost five kilograms. Fruit candies, milk candies, orange candies, brown sugar and white sugar were packed in a large carton.
In addition, some biscuits, milk powder, and other small items were packed in a cardboard box.
The last big package is a massage chair for Mr. Ruan.
In order not to make people suspicious, Xiang Yisen drove a small truck over to the factory and went to the train station with Yu Qing.
The staff of the shipping department of the railway station all know the couple, because every month they ship clothing, shoes, off-road vehicles and tractors to the provincial capital, and they are considered big customers of the shipping station.
It's easy to work with someone you know, and the shipping procedures will be completed quickly.
After leaving the train station, Yu Qing looked at the consignment note in her hand and said with a helpless smile: "Is this unnecessary for us?"
Xiang Yisen took her hand and walked to the parking lot: "For safety's sake, it's not a big deal to spend a little effort."
The train going north had plenty of seats for six adults and four children. In order to avoid trouble or encountering bad guys, Xiang Yisen directly booked eight beds in two sleeper compartments.
Zhou Yalun and Han Xue took Qiao Jun and Zhuzhu to occupy a cubicle, while Yu Qing, Xiang Yisen and two nannies took the twins to a private room.
The children were very interested in taking the train, and there was no noise along the way. The family of ten arrived in the provincial capital smoothly.
At the exit of the train station, Ruan Xiuhua and Ruan Zheng each drove a car to pick up their family.
With a small child in his arms and sitting on his lap, there is just enough room for a large family to sit in two cars.
Before the car started, Ruan Xiuhua asked with concern: "Qingqing, are you hungry after riding for so long? Let's go out for a late-night snack and then go back?"
Yu Qing took the train at four o'clock in the afternoon, and it was already early in the morning. It was impossible not to be hungry, but compared to being hungry, she wanted to sleep more.
She raised her wrist and looked at the time, "It's already past two o'clock in the morning. Is there a night market in the provincial capital so late?"
"Yes, the provincial capital is very lively now. If nothing else, the barbecue restaurant you taught your elder brother to open is very popular!" Ruan Xiuhua turned around and said, "Should we go to your elder brother's barbecue restaurant?"
Try the barbecue in his shop and see if it’s too wild?”
Yu Qing laughed and shook her head: "It's too late today. Several children are asleep. Let's go next time."
No big deal, go back and settle the children, they can cook some noodles at home and deal with it first and then go there tonight.
Ruan Xiuhua was quite sorry, but he also knew that it was unrealistic to take the children outside in the middle of the night.
After entering the manor, two off-road vehicles parked in front of the villa one behind the other.
Ruan Zheng and Ruan Xiuhua helped carry the luggage into the villa and placed it next to the shoe cabinet in the living room.
Ruan Xiuhua: "My mother-in-law, brother Zhou, Qingqing, and Yisen, we will not go in. Your grandma came with the nanny to clean up the house the day before yesterday. You can sleep peacefully tonight, and we will come to pick you up tomorrow."
Yu Qing knew it was getting late, so she didn't want to sleep tonight if she delayed any longer. "Okay, drive slower on the road and pay attention to safety."
Ruan Zheng was using Yu Qing's off-road vehicle when they were not in the provincial capital. Tonight, the vehicle was left in front of the villa, and Ruan Zheng took Ruan Xiuhua's car and left.
After sending Dad Ruan away, Yu Qing settled the children and went to bed with them.
Xiang Yisen was already hungry, so he asked the nanny to cook some midnight snacks for everyone. After everyone ate, they went back to rest.
It was Zhou Yalun's first time to come to the manor. When he was in Yicheng, he only heard from Han Xue that Xiang Yisen had a large manor in the provincial capital, but he did not expect that the villa alone was so big and luxurious.
He carried his luggage upstairs and walked around the second floor for a while, realizing that this villa cost a lot of money to build.
At this moment, he felt a little like he was married into the family. Otherwise, with his monthly salary of tens of yuan and less than one hundred yuan, he might not be able to live in such a luxurious villa in his lifetime.
After practicing early the next morning and running around the manor, Zhou Yalun realized just how big the manor was, with its small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and pavilions. If the architectural style was more ancient, it would be a proper ancient garden, but it's a pity that the
Everything is a modern building.
When he ran to the back park, he found that there was a small door on the wall, which was open at the moment.
He trotted over and took a look outside the door, and found that there were several vegetable fields outside, and Xiang Yisen and Yu Qing were picking peppers and eggplants in the vegetable fields.
"Are there vegetables grown here?"
Xiang Yisen and Yu Qing turned around when they heard the noise.
Yu Qing straightened up, looked at him covered in sweat, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhou, don't run away, come over and help pick vegetables. My dad and several brothers bought the land here. They haven't started construction yet, so
Planting some vegetables appropriately can be considered as making the best use of everything.”
The Ruan family plowed the vegetable field and planted the vegetables. Mr. Ruan will celebrate his birthday tomorrow, and there must be many guests at home these days. They picked the vegetables and sent them all to the Ruan family later.
At noon, the family will go to Ruan's house for dinner.
Well, Yu Qing feels that she is a bit like a married woman who went back to her parents' home to enjoy the autumn breeze.
"Okay." Zhou Yalun wiped his sweat and joked: "They have to travel a long way to pick vegetables in the vegetable fields planted by the Ruan family, which is very convenient for you."
"Haha, Uncle Zhou, what you said is so right." Yu Qing laughed: "You said that if I am like this, does it count as returning to my parents' home to enjoy the autumn breeze?"
Zhou Yalun burst into laughter, pointed to the beans next to him and asked: "These beans have grown a lot, do you want to pick them?"
"Pick it, pick it. If you don't pick it for two days, you'll be old. We brought two big baskets over here. Filling these two baskets should be enough to feed the family for two days."
While picking beans, Zhou Aaron looked up at Xiang Yisen and said, "I think this manor you built is suitable for retirement living."
Xiang Yisen's lips curled up slightly: "How about Uncle Zhou and my mother stay here to take care of themselves?"
Zhou Yalun thought about it, but he still shook his head: "Retirement life is still too far away from me. There are too many things in Yicheng that I can't let go of. Retirement life is suitable for me, but I am not suitable for it!"
"Haha, Uncle Zhou, you really know how to joke."
The Ruan family really has a lot of guests today. Grandma Ruan’s nephew and grandnephew came to the provincial capital to prepare for Mr. Ruan’s birthday party tomorrow.
The Zhou family lives in the provincial capital and did not come over in advance, but the eldest aunt's parents and brothers came over.
In addition, there are some seven aunts and eight aunts from the Ruan family, and one or two comrades of Mr. Ruan who came from other places.
The Ruan family was full of guests, and Grandma Ruan, her two daughters-in-law, and the family nanny were all busy preparing tea for the guests.
When Yu Qing arrived at the Ruan family courtyard, she looked up and saw many people sitting in the courtyard, and there were noisy voices coming from the living room.
She secretly smacked her lips: "How many guests are here?"
"There must be a lot of people." Xiang Yisen parked the car, looked at the situation in the yard, and frowned slightly. He didn't like to join in such fun.
When he married Yu Qing, he was willing to do so, but if you asked him to go to such a noisy place, he would reject it from the bottom of his heart.
Zhou Aaron lifted two baskets of peppers, beans and other vegetables from the trunk.
People sitting in the courtyard looked over when they heard the movement at the entrance of the courtyard, wondering which relative this was, who could actually afford to drive a car in this era when bicycles were rare means of transportation.
Yu Qing didn't recognize the people sitting in the yard, and then she remembered that in the past few years since she recognized her relatives, she seemed to have rarely attended the banquets hosted by the Ruan family because she lived in Yicheng.
I have never even interacted with relatives and friends of the Ruan family.
Fortunately, Ruan Xiuhua noticed the movement outside the courtyard and came out of the villa, "My mother-in-law, you are here, come in and sit down."
Han Xue smiled at him and said, "My dear, I have disturbed you today."
"I didn't bother to mention it. It's too late for me to be happy that you can come."
Ruan Xiuhua then found the basket in Xiang Yisen's hand and asked again: "You guys picked vegetables?"
Yu Qing forced a smile: "Well, I know there are many guests here, so I picked two baskets of vegetables, which should be enough to eat."
Ruan Xiuhua's eyes swept across her face and comforted her: "There are a lot of people in the family today. It will be fine after tomorrow. Just bear with it."
Yu Qing nodded: "Do you need help in the kitchen?"
She has always liked quietness, and it was a bit difficult for Yu Qing to adapt to the sudden increase in so many people at home. She and Xiang Yisen were surprisingly consistent on this point.
"Ask your two nannies to go in and help, and I'll seal them a big red envelope later." Ruan Xiuhua said, glancing at Aunt Qiu and the others who were following behind and holding the child.
"Okay, I'll tell her later." Yu Qing nodded.
The group of people entered the living room while talking.
"Ouch! Xiuhua, is this your illegitimate daughter from outside?"
Depend on!
Who has such a loud voice?
This is a grudge against her!
The harsh voice made Yu Qing frown, and her displeased eyes swept towards the source of the sound.
A dark-skinned middle-aged woman walked over, her confused eyes glued to Yu Qing from the moment she walked in.
