1883: Being An Auntie

Being An Auntie

1"I have to lose weight. I still have to be a star. Who has ever seen a fat celebrity?" Lu Xiaoxiao shook her head violently.1

"Yes, I remember a fat comedian."

Mrs. Lu said, "Her TV shows are all comedies. I think it's quite interesting."

Lu Xiaoxiao knew who Mrs. Lu was talking about, but when she thought about how she would become like that in the future, she felt hopeless.

Lu Xiaoxiao temporarily stopped worrying about losing weight. When she thought about Jiang Yao's pregnancy, she was delighted.

That piqued Lu Xiaoxiao's interest.

"I'll be an auntie."

Unsurprisingly, Second Uncle Lu punched Lu Xiaoxiao lightly, and the whole family laughed.

Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang arrived at that time. They were there for a wedding. They were happy to hear laughter from inside the house.

"Yaoyao's parents are here."

As soon as Mrs. Lu saw them, she immediately called for Mr. Lu to welcome them at the door. "Congratulations. You are going to be grandparents soon! "

"Same here. You're going to be grandparents too." Mr. Jiang had many wrinkles on his face. Even though he was about the same age as Mr. Lu, Mr. Jiang worked in the fields all year round, and he looked a few years older than Mr. Lu.

"We brought some vegetables from home. We grow them ourselves. We don't use pesticides." Mrs. Jiang brought the vegetables to Mrs. Lu in the kitchen.

Mrs. Lu thanked them for bringing more delicious vegetables for them. Then, she took Mrs. Jiang and led her to the living room.

"Mom!"

Jiang Yao had just greeted her father when she saw Mrs. Jiang. She immediately switched to Mrs. Jiang's side and hugged her arm. She did not let her go. "What delicious food did you bring me?"

"The watermelons your dad planted this year are really sweet! I brought a few, and some cucumbers too. Didn't you use to like eating cucumbers with white sugar? This year, the cucumbers are crisp and tender. You will definitely love them." The Jiang family did not usually have any good things at home. News of Jiang Yao's pregnancy was too sudden, so they did not have time to prepare anything.

Most daughters from the countryside would not get such treatment from their families, but the Jiang family indulged Jiang Yao.

"My father and mother are so nice!" After Jiang Yao said that, she let Mrs. Lu touch her belly, and with a cheeky smile, she said, "Mom, come and touch your grandson. Next year, you'll need to bring more watermelons. I love it so much that my child will definitely love to eat it too."

Jiang Yao's words made everyone burst into laughter.

Lu Xiaoxiao teased her. "Wives usually bring things back to their family, but your family is always bringing you things like watermelons."

"You're really good at teasing people."

Mrs. Lu reached out and tapped Lu Xiaoxiao's head. Then, she asked Mrs. Jiang, "Have you told Yaoyao's brother? Shall we invite him and his wife here for a meal at noon?"

Jiang Yao's sister-in-law was also pregnant. However, Jiang Jie was not very busy with his work, so the couple still stayed in town. They thought it would be convenient to go to the county hospital if something happened.

"Okay, I'll let them know."

Mrs. Jiang knew Mrs. Lu's personality. She was always sincere, so she did not refuse her invitation.
