Zhao Dong declined: "Clan leader, you're welcome. We can make our own arrangements for the evening."
The clan leader tried to persuade him a few more times, but Zhao Dong declined them all.
He didn't dare to go into details. After all, Zhao Dong's return this time was completely different from three years ago.
At that time, Zhao Dong was still a big-head soldier. Although he had sharp edges and corners, he had no power after all.
It's different now, Zhao Dong already has the demeanor of the head of the family.
Especially in this room in Tianzhou, everyone seemed to be dominated by him. No one would come out to object to anything Zhao Dong decided.
Of course, the clan leader is not afraid of Zhao Dong, he just doesn't want to offend him.
For example, today, when he arranged such a big battle to welcome Zhao Dong back to his hometown, he also wanted to give Zhao Dong some face.
Let Zhao Dongfeng come back in glory and leave smoothly without causing any trouble!
...
It was almost lunch time, and someone came late outside.
The patriarch greeted, "Hey, aunt is here, come in quickly!"
"I told you that it's true. When can't you be busy with work at home? Xiaodong just started talking about you."
Zhao Dong stood up hurriedly, and while speaking, his eyes were a little red, "Sister-in-law!"
Because Zhao's mother had been very strict with him since he was a child, Zhao Dong found something like a loving mother in his aunt, and the relationship between his aunt and nephew was relatively close.
Zhao Tong stood far away, almost daring to recognize him, "Are you really Xiaodong?"
It's not that Zhao Dong has changed a lot, but that his temperament is different.
Zhao Dong three years ago was even more sharp.
The Zhao Dong in front of her gave her an indescribable feeling, an earth-shaking change.
If they met outside, she would never dare to recognize him!
Zhao Dong smirked, "Sister-in-law, look at what you said, who else could it be if I weren't?"
"You forgot to dig out the bird's nest that year. I also trampled on the roof of the isolation house!"
"You were so reluctant to hit me that I lost an old hen!"
Zhao Tong opened his arms and hugged the person, "You bastard!"
His eyes turned red, and he couldn't help but lose control of his emotions.
The clan leader interrupted at the right time and scolded slightly: "It's rare for Xiaodong to come back, why are you crying?"
Zhao Tong's expression changed slightly when he heard the clan leader's words. He quickly wiped away his tears and soon returned to normal.
Zhao Dong didn't notice anything strange and hurriedly waved, "Xiao Fei, come here!"
Sophie had been standing aside obediently for a long time. When she heard Zhao Dong's greeting, she hurriedly stepped forward and said a little cautiously: "Auntie!"
Zhao Tong was stunned, "Is this...Xiao Fei?"
Zhao Dong said happily: "Yes, this is your niece-in-law!"
Zhao Tong almost didn't dare to recognize her. The first impression Sophie gave her was that she was beautiful. She was extremely delicate, which was like two extremes from Zhao Dong's rough and arrogant personality.
Especially Sophie's gaze, which was not sharp, her eyes were smiling and lifeless at all.
Perhaps because of Zhao Dong, Zhao Tong had an indescribable affection for her.
Pulling Sophie back, she couldn't help but tease, "You brat, are you lying to me?"
Zhao Dong also laughed, "Looking at what you said, am I not worthy of her?"
Zhao Tong smiled and said nothing, not because she doubted Zhao Dong's ability, but because such a girl could like Zhao Dong, it felt like a dream no matter how she thought about it.
Sophie was also looking at Zhao Tong at the same time. He had a face typical of the Zhao family, and his eyebrows were similar to Zhao Dong.
Although her clothes are simple, she doesn't look like an ordinary rural woman.
It can be seen that she must be a woman with a story.
Sophie looked away, with a bit more curiosity in her eyes!
...
The rest of the time was spent simply catching up on old times.
