After receiving a call from his son, Lao Qiao returned the hotel he had booked, and called his relatives and friends one by one to compensate him. He didn't blame his son, but in the summer, he already felt the gloom of late autumn.

This time, without the instructions of her parents, Jolene cleaned the house with a new look, posted a lot of double happiness, and was full of joy. She and her sister paid for a sea-view room for them at a well-known five-star hotel in Port City. It's a little more expensive, but getting married is a little extravagant. Now, all the prepaid room fees have been refunded, but Jolene is not happy at all.

Qiao Nan didn't know what would happen to this operation, so he didn't mention the operation to his parents, so he said that there was a task above him, and he couldn't go home. Old Qiao expressed his understanding, suppressed all his anger, and just told him to take care of his body.

As everyone knows, on the night when the wedding was decided to be canceled, Lao Qiao ran to the beach alone and cried profusely, and the two people thousands of miles away also stayed awake all night because of guilt.

As soon as the wedding was postponed, Jolene also had a lot of sorry people. In order to cooperate with Qiao Nan's wedding, Chen Yun specially took her son to buy a suit. As soon as Sun Ruiyang changed his clothes and came out, Qiao Lin looked straight.

It is said that people rely on clothes, and as soon as Sun Ruiyang put on a straight suit, the noble son's style came out. He usually likes to wear a T-shirt or a shirt over a T-shirt, which is just the most ordinary college student dress. So much so that Jolene often forgets that he is still an invisible rich N generation with strong family resources.

However, this young master is also miserable, and he was looking forward to being the best man for the first time, but the wedding was not held, and the newly bought suit was useless.

When Qiao Lin went to her boyfriend's house to explain the situation, she felt embarrassed, but fortunately, Aunt Chen was very open-minded, and spoke for Qiao Nan in turn: "I have a college classmate who married a naval officer, and the marriage date has been changed three or four times, and now I am quite happy." Your brother has never been free, and I can understand him. Good things are grinding, you comfort your parents more!"

Qiao Lin just thought that Aunt Chen was really the most gentle and considerate person she had ever met, and she spoke so well. But after thinking about it for a while, Chen Yun joked again: "You can't have such twists and turns for a wedding, you can set a certain day!"

Jolene blushed and fled.

Whether as the children's aunt or as Li Lanzhi's good friend, Chen Yun has taken her thoughtfulness to the extreme. She knew that Li Lanzhi felt very uncomfortable, so she often brought the baby over to accompany her.

Probably the day after receiving Qiao Nan's call, Chen Yun went to Qiao's house with snacks. In front of her good friends, Li Lanzhi didn't hold back her tears. As a result, the baby said: "I also think it's a pity, I can't eat all the sea cucumbers and abalone that I've been looking forward to for a long time." ”

It turns out that the three most indispensable dishes for Hong Kong people to hold wedding banquets are sea cucumber, abalone, and prawns. As soon as the baby complained, Chen Yun immediately laughed and scolded her for being a gluttonous cat, and Li Lanzhi was amused by her.

In fact, the baby is also very comforting, she also said, maybe the three children of the Qiao family can have a wedding together, then the Qiao family is three happiness, how many people in Hong Kong City can do it?

Qiao Lin hurriedly said: "It will be several years before I get married, and my brothers and sisters are in their thirties at that time, so I can't wait that long!"

"Then you should get married early!" The baby didn't think that marriage was a big deal at all: "My mother said that you are going to marry my brother after graduating from college, aren't you graduating this year?"

The villain is really hard to fool.

The reason why the baby knows that Jolene has graduated is because the wonton house has a new photo hanging up. In the photo, Jolene is wearing a bachelor's gown, holding several bouquets of flowers, and her older siblings are standing to her left and right, everyone smiling brightly.

The three children are all promising, and the youngest daughter has also graduated from college, so old Joe is not to mention how proud. He deliberately hung up this photo, and in the face of the praise of the diners, he just said politely, and his heart was already bubbling with beauty.

This summer, what should have been hung was a family photo taken at his son's wedding. He had fantasized countless times about how he would reply humbly and humbly if others praised their family. But all this was in vain, he was originally very busy, but he suddenly became idle, and he was surrounded by huge losses every day.

In order to organize Qiao Nan's wedding, Li Lanlan also made a lot of efforts, and it was through her appearance that Qiao's family got the friendly price of the hotel. After the wedding was canceled, she was also angry, but like Chen Yun, she also chose to speak for Qiao Nan: "Put on the military uniform, you can't help himself, what can we do?"

In Qiao Lin's opinion, although she is not related by blood, her aunt does love her brother very much. Maybe it's because my brother is really likable, or maybe it's because my aunt doesn't have a son, so as long as it's related to my brother, my aunt usually does her best to help. Qiao Lin made up for it, if she was the one who canceled the wedding, her aunt's anger would have jumped into the sky.

This time Jolene came home, and her aunt's attitude towards her was much better, probably ...... Can't underestimate a graduate student from a prestigious university?

After her brother's wedding was canceled, Jolene didn't have much interest in staying at home, so she wanted to go back to Beijing as soon as possible to work part-time. But seeing her parents' depressed appearance, she was reluctant to leave, so she stayed in the port city until the start of school.

By the end of August, the wind in the port city was cool. Before Qiao Lin went to report for duty, her mother also bought her a few autumn clothes and a lot of fat crabs, all of which she ate alone.

It seems that it's good that my brother and sister are not at home, at least my parents' thoughts are on me. Although she is still not used to her mother's kindness to her, she always feels flattered, but she is still very happy to become close to her mother.

In recent years, Jolene has obviously felt that her mother has softened a lot, and she often says some soft words. Especially after experiencing the twists and turns of the wedding, my mother is even more vulnerable, and often says to Jolene - it's good to have you with us, otherwise we will be pitiful.

Jolene's mouth was not forgiving at all: "Then you still sent me away back then?"

Whenever Qiao Lin asked like this, Lao Qiao always jumped out first to play a round: "The thing that your mother and I regret the most is that we haven't been able to keep you by our side since childhood." It's been a lot of years, so don't talk about it. ”

Jolene didn't want to worry about these things, but she always had a little pimple in her heart, and her parents also had a knot in their hearts that couldn't be untied.

Although she occasionally complains about her parents, Jolene is always grateful to her grandmother who raised her as an adult. In order to attend Qiao Nan's wedding, her grandmother specially bought a new dress (although the two daughters had already prepared it for her), and she also wanted to sew a new bedding for the couple as their wedding gift.

When Jolene was a child, almost all of her clothes were made by her grandmother, and the old man did needlework very neatly. But the years are not forgiving, in the past six months, her eyes have been bad, her hands are shaking, and the bedding can be sewn up in the New Year. I heard my aunt say that my grandmother teased herself in front of people that she was old and useless, but when no one was around, she secretly wiped many tears.

Qiao Lin went back to her hometown for a week, although her grandmother was very happy, her memory became worse and worse, she forgot what she said in a blink of an eye, and often fell into a burst of pessimism: "Nan Nan's wedding has been postponed again, does God deliberately not want me to participate?"

It wasn't until Jolene was scared to cry that Grandma stopped talking.

This holiday, Baoqing went to the northwest to participate in the school's volunteer teaching activities. He had planned to come back from leave when his cousin got married, but it turned out to be ...... He told his family to try for Eleven to come back and reunite with them.

After the college entrance examination, Baoqing has been sought after a lot. Introverted by nature, he doesn't want to show off, but after going to college, his deeds are still circulating. Of course, there are all kinds of voices, some appreciative, some mocking, and some pouring cold water.

But Baoqing blocked the voices of the outside world and devoted himself to studying. During a vacation in high school, he once told Qiao Lin that after going to college, he would donate 500 yuan to Project Hope every semester to bring hope to a child in a poor mountainous area.

He also said that since he was a child, although he has experienced a lot of warmth and coldness, he is lucky that he has always had someone to help him. The aunt and sister-in-law have fiery personalities, but they are both good teachers and have helped many students. When those students reciprocated to them, they invariably said that the best reward was not to give money to the teacher, but to pass on kindness to others.

Baoqing didn't say anything, but he kept it all in his heart. Like his cousin back then, he was reluctant to spend the monthly allowance from the military academy, and if he saved enough one or two thousand, he sent it home. Then I save a little bit every month so that I can give it to my love.

"Sister, if I keep doing this, God will bless my dad with good health, right?"

“…… Definitely!"

"Sister, I only tell you, and Zhao Leilei...... None of the others said...... Mom, Dad, Grandma, Auntie, they don't know. ”

"You're doing a good deed, why don't you let others know?"

"I'm still used to living quietly. Bao Qing smiled honestly: "If others knew, there would definitely be all kinds of theories...... I can't bear to praise me for being kind, and I don't like to listen to those who laugh at me for being stupid. ”

Baoqing doesn't like to talk, his parents don't know what he's thinking, and his two aunts are even more worried about his stupidity, for fear that he will be looked down upon or bullied when he goes to college. But Jolene was extremely reassuring of this cousin, who was very open-minded and had great wisdom in his mind. The longer he grows, the more he looks like his father, gentle and firm.

Bao Qingyuan went to college in Xi'an, and he didn't necessarily go home during the holidays, and his grandmother thought that he couldn't think about it, and often cried when she looked at his photos. When Qiao Lin got home, her grandmother showed a little smile, and she was reluctant to let her go: "Your brother, as well as Baoqing, have become disobedient." Only Linlin is still grandma's good baby. ”

In the past two years, my uncle's health has recovered well, and my grandmother doesn't have to stay by his side to take care of him all the time. My aunt kept asking my grandmother to live at her house for a while, but my grandmother only stayed for two or three days at a time and then left in a hurry. In the summer of 2012, my grandmother also went back to live with Qiao Lin for two days, but she couldn't rest assured that her uncle was going back, and she had to go back to make quilts, but there was no way, so everyone had to let her go back.

After Grandma left, Qiao Lin lost her temper at her mother: "Aren't you able to manage people? You can take care of Grandma! She is so old, and she is still immersed in making quilts, and people are aging fast!"

"You know what? If you don't let your grandma do anything, she'll age faster. Li Lanzhi said: "If she finds something to do, she finds the value of existence, or she thinks about it all day long, and counts how many days she can live." ”

"Alright, okay, don't talk about it!" Jolene eagerly skipped the topic for fear of discussing life and death.
