Chapter 206 Chat
Jiang Li blinked as she looked at the large and small bags that had been packed up at the door.
I don't think I took anything, so how come the floor is already covered?
Jiang Li thought it over and over but couldn't find anything unnecessary, so she simply brought everything with her.
Ye Jingmo reheated the cornbread he hadn't finished eating that morning, while Jiang Li took out a box of shredded green peppers and pork that she had packed earlier from her spatial storage.
The two of them simply wrapped green peppers and shredded pork in corn tortillas and had a hasty lunch.
The Liang family next door also got busy early, cleaning their living room spotless from the start of the day, afraid of neglecting their guests.
Liangzi was worried that the table at home was too small to seat so many people, so he specially brought out the table that he had previously moved over and put in the storage room.
Two tables were put together to form a long table.
"Dad, chair."
A childish voice sounded.
Liangzi watched as his daughter pushed the stool to the table, her little face flushed. He quickly went over to help her push the stool to the table.
"Xiao An, just sit quietly on the sofa. Dad will do these chores."
Liangzi rubbed his daughter's head. Her sparse, dry hair was not as smooth as before, but Liangzi did not show the slightest disgust.
“An’an also wants to help.”
"Okay, then An'an, you can help Mommy get the spoons and chopsticks and put them on the table. Daddy can do the work of moving the chairs, okay?"
After arranging some work for his daughter, Liangzi got busy again.
The firewood in the stove was almost gone, so Liangzi took five pieces from the pile of firewood next to him and put them into the fire. He poked at them with fire tongs, and the flames started to rise.
Feeling that the temperature inside the room wasn't too cold, Liangzi put down the fire tongs.
I wonder if the captain and the others have arrived yet?
Liangzi thought to himself.
On the other side, Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo left carrying large and small bags.
However, the two split up. Ye Jingmo went to Liang Zi's house first with the things, while Jiang Li went to Qin's house to go with them.
Ye Jingmo had just arrived at Liang Zi's house when Jiang Li, Qin Yu, and Qin Yue arrived shortly after.
"Captain, you've arrived!"
"An'an, come quickly and call for help."
An'an hadn't seen so many people at home in a long time, and she hid behind Liangzi's legs in fear, cautiously peeking out half of her head.
"Hello, brother and sister."
The baby's sweet, childlike voice made everyone laugh.
"An'an, you should call him uncle."
Otherwise, he'd be from a different generation than your father.
Jiang Li couldn't help but chuckle at the thought, her smile impossible to hide.
Ye Jingmo couldn't help but give her a look.
"Everyone, come inside to talk. It's quite cold outside, but warmer inside."
Liangzi's wife, Lin Panpan, urged Jiang Li and his group to hurry inside, worried that they might catch a cold outside.
Lin Panpan had prepared hot water in the kitchen early on. After everyone came in, she poured hot water into each person's cup to warm them up and ward off the cold.
"Why did you bring so much stuff? We also prepared things here, you didn't need to bring so much."
Seeing that Ye Jingmo and Qin Yu were carrying large and small bags, Liangzi immediately spoke up.
Qin Yu smiled and said kindly:
“It’s not appropriate for the three of us to have New Year’s Eve dinner together, with only your family providing the ingredients. Besides, I heard from Brother Ye that you just moved here, so it’s a housewarming dinner and it’s not excessive to make it a bit more grand.”
Ye Jingmo shared the same thought. Not wanting to waste words, he nodded in agreement, indicating his opinion.
Thinking that there was still plenty of time, the group of people started chatting, talking about this and that, and soon they became familiar with each other.
