Chapter 937: Three Women Gather at the Lantern Festival, a Unique Atmosphere_2

Xia Qin also nodded: “It’s good to check, the medical level in small counties is not great, often misdiagnosing and some problems may not be detected.”

“Modu is a big city, the medical level is top-notch nationwide, a thorough check can put your mind at ease.”

Xia Qin finished speaking, paused, and spoke up again with some concern.

“Old Li, Yuan said to prepare a few more pairs of chopsticks, he’ll bring Bai, Zhijin, and Tingyue over tonight, but for some reason, I’m a bit worried…”

Li Heng glanced at his wife with furrowed brows and asked, “What are you worried about?”

Xia Qin snorted: “Are you stupid? If all three of them come tonight, sit down to eat together, face to face, isn’t it awkward?”

Li Heng responded casually: “What’s the matter, let him handle it himself. If he dares to bring three girlfriends back, he naturally has discretion.”

Thinking about the current situation at home, Xia Qin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

As a woman, she was somewhat dissatisfied with her own son’s philandering behavior.

But from a mother’s perspective, she also felt that her son was quite capable to find three such beautiful girlfriends, who were all from prestigious universities; it felt very prestigious…

In the whole hometown, one could raise their head proudly.

Now, she truly experienced an old saying.

“Poor in the bustling city goes unnoticed, rich in the mountains has distant relatives.”

Once people have money and power, relatives once thought to be distant will come to visit for New Year.

Everyone, in person, will have friendly faces and be surrounded by good people…

“Unfortunately, Yuan and Bai are still young, after a few years, once they graduate from university and have a few children for our Old Li family, we can help look after the grandchildren, so it’s not so lonely!”

Li Heng was also moved, finding interest: “Yuan is only 19 and hasn’t reached the legal marriage age yet, we have to wait a few more years.”

“In our big family, only our family has fewer members, Yuan should have a few more children later.”

Xia Qin laughed heartily: “There won’t be few, Bai, Zhijin, Tingyue, if each person has one, that’s three children. If each has two, then it’s six.”

“As long as they are willing to give birth, we will raise them. Yuan has made so much money, not to mention six children, even sixty can be well taken care of.”

While the couple was imagining a future “full of children and grandchildren”…

Suddenly, the doorbell rang.

Xia Qin immediately got up to open the door.

She saw Xia Zhijin wearing a white down jacket, long boots, holding fruits in one hand and a plastic bag in the other, standing cutely at the door.

“Auntie!”

Seeing Xia Zhijin, Xia Qin’s face instantly lit up with smiles. She hadn’t seen Xia Zhijin for over half a month and missed this diligent, beautiful, gentle girl very much…

“Zhijin is here, hurry up and come inside, it’s so cold outside; why buy fruits when coming home.”

“Auntie, I brought some Shancheng specialties from home, like mahua, hot pot base, not sure if you like them.”

“Of course, of course, it’s cold outside, don’t stand at the door, come in quickly.”

“Mhm!”

Xia Zhijin shyly nodded, entered the house, and politely called out “Uncle” to Li Heng, then glanced inside…

Xia Qin held Xia Zhijin’s little hand and smiled: “Li Yuan and the others haven’t arrived yet. You sit and wait, Auntie is preparing dinner.”

Xia Zhijin didn’t go to the company today. After arriving in Modu last night, she spent a sweet night with Li Yuan, then went to the campus, bringing some Shancheng specialties for her roommates, and only then returned from school.

At this moment, when Li Zixia saw Xia Zhijin arrive, he promptly put down his guitar, ran over quickly, and affectionately held Xia Zhijin’s hand, speaking sweetly.

“Hehe, sis-in-law, haven’t seen you in ages, I missed you so much.”

“Did you miss me?”

Xia Zhijin smiled sweetly: “Yes I did! Ning mentioned you a lot.”

Li Zixia chuckled: “Haven’t seen Ning for a long time, it’d be great if he could also study in Modu.”

“Sis-in-law, let’s go back to Shancheng together again during the May Day holiday, okay? Shancheng has way more good food and fun places than Modu.”

“Ning and Grandma haven’t been to Modu yet, we can bring them to visit for a few days.”

Xia Zhijin: “Alright, let’s plan around the holiday when it comes.”

Li Zixia: “Haha, Ning probably hasn’t seen the ocean yet, we can take him to see it, ride a cruise, go surfing, it’ll be very exciting…”

“I heard my brother say a few days ago, when the weather warms up, he’ll rent a cruise and take our whole family traveling around the world…”

…

After a while, Zhong Tingyue, Li Yuan, and Bai Weixi also arrived at the house one after another.

The originally slightly empty room suddenly became bustling and lively.

Zhong Tingyue, Xia Zhijin, Bai Weixi, three uniquely charming beauties gathered together, looking a bit shy and apprehensive.

Although they had often come here with Li Yuan, like Xia Zhijin and Bai Weixi, who came many times to tutor Li Zixia.

Before the New Year, they also frequently appeared together at the villa in Xinghe Bay, quite familiar.

But coming here together and facing Li Yuan’s parents was a first.

With parents at home, especially in-laws, the feeling was naturally different, all of them were a bit nervous.

Li Yuan looked at his parents, his sister, and the three girlfriends sitting beside him, feeling a sudden sense of “contentment.”

If this were the previous life, it would be unimaginable even in dreams, but in this life, it has become a reality.

Each of his three girlfriends is perfect, finding faults is almost impossible.

Li Yuan often wondered about their inner thoughts and feelings about this situation, whether they genuinely agree.

But at this moment, on this special day, Lantern Festival, he felt the need to maintain good relationships with them, this is already nice…

Xia Qin initially felt nervous and anxious about having three “daughter-in-laws” together, fearing a quiet atmosphere or conflict.

However, seeing the three girls chatting and laughing, appearing to get along well, her worry eased.

With a glance at her flirtatious son, she secretly gave a thumbs up.

She sometimes couldn’t fathom whom her darling son takes after, why he’s so skilled at relationships, managing to chase three beautiful and outstanding girlfriends and even have them get along…

Whom does he take after?

Does he take after his dad?

Could it be, Old Li?

With this thought, Xia Qin glared fiercely at Li Heng.

“Hmm, the Old Li family genes must all be playboys.”

The glared-at Li Heng felt somewhat baffled.

With a full smile, Xia Qin hosted Zhong Tingyue and the other girls for the meal:

“Come, come, quickly have some food, try Auntie’s cooking skills?”

“Zhijin, here’s some braised pork Auntie made, eat more to nourish yourself, you’re too thin.”

“Bai, have some twice-cooked pork, Shancheng specialty, it’s quite tasty.”

“Tingyue, try this, wild chicken from our hometown, your uncle specially got a few, tastes really good.”

…

This special Lantern Festival dinner had a unique atmosphere. Li Yuan and his father Li Heng each drank half a bottle of white wine, their cheeks flush, with a dense alcohol blush.

Li Yuan looked at the house and smiled:

“Mom and Dad, while we’re all here, the house feels small, why not get a new one?”

“I bought a detached villa in Tianyu Residence, it’s over 1000 square meters, much more spacious, already furnished, we can move in directly.”
