Luo Ziling's family landed at Yiwu Airport by plane and then arrived in Yuezhou by car.
Although Yiwu is a small place, there are two to three flights from Yanjing to here every day, so the ticket supply is relatively less tight.
Moreover, Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan did not want more people to know their itinerary, so they did not choose to land at Xiaoshan Airport, but chose Yiwu, which was relatively far away but more convenient.
The flight was not delayed and arrived about twenty minutes early.
Although Wu Yue did not follow, she had already arranged the itinerary for them.
A car met them at the airport.
The airport is very close to the entrance of the expressway. They took the expressway directly from the airport and headed to Yuezhou.
They arrived in Yuezhou three and a half hours after leaving Yanjing.
The group of people did not enter the city, but left the expressway directly from the Lanting exit and headed for the Luo family's old house.
Luo Linsheng originally did not plan to go back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year. The last time Luo Ziling passed by Yuezhou, he had asked him to worship his ancestors.
Going back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year was actually Ling Ruonan's suggestion.
The reason why Ling Ruonan proposed to go back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year was because she knew that according to southern customs, a married woman could not celebrate the New Year at her parents' house.
There is a saying in many places in the south that a married daughter cannot spend the winter solstice and New Year in her parents' home. "If you die in the winter, you will die as a father, and in the new year, you will die as a father (this father refers to the father)."
When people reach a certain age, they will be particular and start to care about these traditions that are almost nonsense.
Ling Ruonan didn't want Luo Linsheng to be concerned, so she took the initiative to go back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year. Last year, she had not registered her marriage with Luo Xusheng, so it was not officially married. She was still the unmarried daughter of the Ling family, so there was no need to pay attention to this.
Ling Ruonan suggested returning to Yuezhou for the New Year, and Luo Liansheng was naturally overjoyed.
After knowing Ling Ruonan's thoughts, he was even more pleased that his daughter-in-law was considerate and sensible.
Luo Yuqing was also willing to go back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year, and he was in an even better mood.
She talked the most along the way, and Luo Ziling ignored Luo Yuqing. Luo Yuqing was so depressed that she had to talk to her grandfather.
"If it snows, sitting under the eaves and watching the snow and catching birds will be quite different." When the car drove off the highway, Luo Liansheng chuckled and said to Luo Yuqing: "Simmering the stove and roasting the birds, it tastes very good when you think about it.
good."
Luo Liansheng actually still has such a childlike innocence, Luo Ziling sitting next to him was a little dumbfounded.
"Grandpa, if it really snows, I will accompany you to hunt birds, and we will enjoy the snow and eat barbecue by the stove." Luo Ziling immediately took Luo Liansheng's words and said with a smile: "The plum blossoms and wintersweet in the garden must be in full bloom.
It’s got a subtle aroma, and it’s definitely going to taste good when you’re eating barbecue.”
Luo Yuqing also responded immediately: "Haha, if that's really the case, it would be so unique."
"How about we eat like this for today's New Year's Eve dinner?" When Luo Liansheng said this, he glanced at Ling Ruonan who was sitting in the same car.
"Dad, you can do whatever you want, as long as you are interested." Ling Ruonan was even more reluctant to flirt with Luo Liansheng, "How about we just sit on the edge of the yard and eat hot pot and barbecue today?"
"Okay!" Luo Xusheng also nodded in agreement.
Just as the car drove to the door of the old house, Luo Ziling got a call from Xu Chen.
"Ziling, your family has returned to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year?" Xu Chen looked a little excited, "Is it true?"
"Of course it's true. We have arrived in Yuezhou. When you called, the car just stopped in front of the old house." Luo Ziling smiled and asked Xu Chen if he was also going back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year.
"Yes, we are also planning to go back to Yuezhou to celebrate the New Year this year." Xu Chen became even more happy, "I wonder if it would be convenient for me to come to your house to wish you a happy New Year after the New Year's Eve dinner?"
"Why don't we come over for New Year's Eve dinner together?" Luo Ziling extended the invitation.
But Xu Chen refused, saying that she still had to go back to her husband's hometown for the New Year's Eve dinner. After all, he had promised his parents-in-law to go back and have the New Year's Eve dinner with them.
"Then after you finish your meal, come over later and have a cup of tea!" Luo Ziling also obeyed Xu Chen's wishes.
"Then we'll come over around nine o'clock in the evening."
"You have to come empty-handed, don't bring gifts!" Luo Ziling reminded.
"How is that possible? It's not in line with etiquette to not bring a gift to greet the New Year." Xu Chen reassured Luo Ziling that she would not bring any expensive gifts to the door. "I will bring some home-brewed local specialties and won't spend money to buy them."
What an expensive gift, it’s just a matter of words.”
"Okay then!" Luo Ziling also agreed.
The two chatted for a while, agreed to meet up in the evening and then hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Luo Ziling also told Ling Ruonan about Xu Chen's plan to come over to pay New Year's greetings in the evening.
Ling Ruonan actually didn't want to receive guests on New Year's Eve, but Luo Ziling agreed to Xu Chen, so she couldn't say anything.
But she still asked Luo Ziling that if anyone else wanted to come over to pay New Year's greetings on New Year's Eve, they would all refuse.
Luo Ziling also agreed and conveyed his intention to Xu Chen.
Xu Chen immediately replied to Luo Ziling, saying that she would give instructions and not allow officials from Yuezhou to come and disturb their family's peace.
The Luo family's old house was still very clean, so tidy that Luo Liansheng was surprised.
The news that the family had returned to their old home spread quickly, and many people came to join in the fun. Ling Ruonan suddenly became a very qualified daughter-in-law, receiving them warmly and distributing the gifts brought from Yanjing.
Red envelopes were distributed to them, elders and children.
This made Luo Liansheng very satisfied.
Unfortunately, it didn't snow on New Year's Eve, and Luo Liansheng's wish to have a barbecue around the stove and enjoy the snow did not come true.
However, the family still sat under the eaves at the edge of the yard and had a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner.
The New Year's Eve dinner was prepared by Ling Ruonan herself, with several stir-fried dishes and a large pot.
Luo Yuqing naturally went to help very diligently.
Ling Ruonan invited Shi Yidan, Zhu Yijun and other security personnel who had followed them to Yuezhou for the New Year to the table and asked them to have New Year's Eve dinner with them. Although Shi Yidan, Zhu Yijun and others were used to the intimacy treated by Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling,
It's not very exciting, but sitting with Luo Liansheng and Luo Xusheng, the two heads of the Luo family, I'm still quite nervous.
They did not sit for a long time. After eating and drinking, they stood up so as not to disturb the Luo family's conversation and discussion.
After Shi Yidan, Zhu Yijun and others left the table, Luo Yuqing, who was a little drunk, asked Ling Ruonan with the strength of her wine: "Aunt Ling, why do you still dare to leave Yanjing now?"
"It's the New Year, you have to relax." Ling Ruonan frowned slightly, feeling that Luo Yuqing's words were a bit embarrassing, but she still answered patiently: "You should always give yourself a holiday during the New Year, right?"
"If someone wants to cause trouble during the Chinese New Year, wouldn't it be impossible for you to deal with it in time if you are not in Yanjing?" Luo Yuqing burped and said impulsively: "If I were your opponent, then I
I must do something during the Chinese New Year so that you don’t have time to respond."
"Yuqing, what are you talking about?" Luo Xusheng frowned, "How can you assume this?"
Ling Ruonan looked at Luo Yuqing seriously, and then said solemnly: "You worry too much, and you can't be my opponent!"
Luo Liansheng, Luo Xusheng, and Luo Ziling all changed their expressions.
