The elders invited him again and again, so Ji Luo couldn't refuse. He nodded to Bai Xuemei and taught the children: "This is Uncle Dongxu's mother. Say hello to grandma."

"Hello, grandma." A group of children called out in unison.

"Hello, kids."

Bai Xuemei smiled, her eyes also fell on Tang Tangguo, her eyes flickered slightly, and she smiled and invited: "Ji Luo, bring the child in and sit down."

There were other guests in the living room, and they had all gotten up long ago. Ji Luo led the children into the house. When he looked up, he saw that the three people standing by the coffee table were the two elders of the Bai family and Bai Zhenghao.

The expressions of the three members of the Bai family were indescribably complicated. Ji Luo was very calm when he saw them. He nodded at them and took the initiative to speak: "I am also studying in Country M. I am in the same city as Qin Dongxu, but not in the same school. We have seen each other frequently in the past three years. He sometimes comes to our house for dinner. This time when I graduated and returned to China, he asked me to bring some things to Uncle Qin and the others."

The two elders of the Bai family smiled stiffly and nodded. Father Bai politely invited them to sit down, "Take a seat, and bring the children to sit down."

Ji Luo nodded slightly and introduced them to the children: "These three are Uncle Dongxu's grandparents and uncle. You can call them Grandpa and Grandpa."

"Hello, Grandpa. Hello, Grandpa." Tuantuan led her two younger sisters to call for help.

"Hello."

All three of them responded, and three pairs of eyes fell on Tangtang Guoguo.

After Bai Xuemei arranged for them to sit on the sofa, she hurried to make tea and prepare candies and fruits. She washed a large basket of bayberries and said, "Children, try some bayberries."

The sisters Tangtang and Guoguo sat next to their mother. They both looked up at her. Guoguo said innocently, "Grandma, why do you look like my mother?"

The living room fell into deathly silence in an instant.

Bai Xuemei was frozen by her question and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Guoguo, all beautiful people look alike. Grandma is beautiful, and mom is also beautiful, so you think we look alike." Ji Luo quickly started to deceive.

Guoguo is smart and not so easy to fool. She wanted to say something, but Ren Yunqian spoke up for her mother first: "Guoguo, you are very beautiful, and Tangtang is also beautiful. You both look a lot like your mother."

"I understand, the beautiful ones all look alike." Guoguo was successfully led astray by her brother's words "You are very beautiful".

"Yes, Guoguo got it right."

Ji Luo was afraid that she would say more, so he immediately took some bayberries and gave them to them. "Grandpa Qin bought the black bayberries, which are the most delicious. You have never tasted them before, and they are not sold in Country M. Come and try them."

None of them had ever eaten bayberry, but the children were greedy and stuffed all the bayberries into their mouths.

The result is predictable, a row of children showed various expressions.

"Mom, it's sour."

"Aunt, it's so sour."

Ji Luo looked at them and smiled, "The first bite was slightly sour, but it won't be so sour the next time. This bayberry is authentic black bayberry, and it's delicious."

"Ji Luo, you eat too."

Qin Shao brought her some hot tea. The children each had a cup of soy milk. He changed the subject naturally: "You studied in Country M for the past three years. Did you bring all three children with you?"

“We brought them over the following year and they lived there for two years.”

Bai Xuemei moved two stools over and sat on them with the man. She had just adjusted her mood and asked with a faint smile, "Dongxu hasn't been back for three years. He asked someone to send a letter home the first year. We don't know much about his situation in the past two years. Is he doing well over there?"

"It's good. His school is not far from ours, about five kilometers away. I didn't know he got a government-sponsored study abroad quota before. I met him at an international student social event."

"He lived in the school dormitory, and I bought a house near the school and lived with my cousin. I often organized overseas students to come to my house for dinner, and he would come over. After I took the three children over, he basically came over every half a month."

Tangtang was just concentrating on eating bayberries. She liked them very much and had already eaten two. She tilted her head and asked her, "Mom, who are you talking about?"

"Uncle Dongxu."

Tangtang was busy eating, but now she remembered that the grandparents in front of her were Uncle Dongxu's parents. She grinned and said, "Grandpa, grandma, Uncle Dongxu bought skirts for Guoguo and me, and bought us chocolates and cakes. He also took us to ride bicycles and play ball."

"Really?" Bai Xuemei's smile deepened.

"Uncle Dongxu was shooting with my brother, and he lost to him, so he cooked hotpot for us." Guoguo also revealed the news.

Qin Shao smiled and looked at the silent Tuantuan. "Tuantuan, did you learn to shoot with your father when you were very young?"

Ren Yunqian grinned, a little proud: "Well, my father taught me, and my grandfather and uncle also taught me. I like shooting. My mother hired a coach in Country M to teach me. I am better than Uncle Dongxu. He can't beat me."

"Uncle Dongxu has never learned it before, and he is a little nearsighted, so he is not good at shooting."

Qin Shao had no other thoughts in his mind about the fact that his son got along well with them. He did not object to their interaction and felt that it was good to get along like friends without tearing off a certain veil.

"Grandpa, the fried rice made by Uncle Dongxu is delicious. It's my favorite." Guoguo also started talking.

"Dongxu has also cooked for you?"

Bai's mother interrupted, her mood was very complicated at the moment, and she was a little afraid to look at Ji Luo, and she didn't dare to look at her eyes that were full of wisdom and shrewdness.

"Uncle eats with us, mom, cousin, and Uncle Dongxu cook, and my brother and sister and I eat together. We cook a lot of delicious food."

"The adults cooked a lot of chili peppers for us to eat, but we didn't eat them. Uncle Dongxu made me fried rice with eggs, but without chili peppers. It was delicious."

"My brother ate two bowls, and my sister and I also ate two bowls."

"Uncle Dongxu also cooked noodles, pork, pork, pork intestine noodles. I said it was smelly, but he said it smelled good. He said that if you wash the pig shit clean, it won't stink anymore."

Guoguo became more and more excited as she spoke, her voice getting louder and louder. Ji Luo looked at her with a doting smile: "Ren Yunnuo, eat, don't talk about daddy."

"Hehe, Mom, it wasn't me who said that, it was Uncle Dongxu who said that." Guoguo grinned.

Qin Shao and the others were also laughing. He then asked, "Ji Luo, does Dongxu often go to your place for dinner?"

"Well, he also has a strong taste for spicy food. He doesn't like the Western food in the school cafeteria. They can't cook in the dormitory, and they rarely get Chinese food in restaurants outside. I asked him to come over to my house for dinner when he's free during the holidays."

"The house we bought is large, with land in the front and back yards. We brought a lot of seeds from China to grow vegetables, and asked an acquaintance to bring a lot of chili seasoning. He often buys vegetables and comes to eat with us."
