Chapter 601: Wedding Sweets (Part 2)
Lian Tong didn't talk much, but Lian Qingzhi, Lian Qingling, and Lian Qingxuan called her "auntie" very naturally, with a hint of flattery in their words.
Even though Lian Tong was in her thirties and still unmarried, nobody dared to say a word about it.
After the birthday celebration, Lian Qingyang could not sit still for even a day, always thinking about going to Jing City, longing for Uncle Tang's cooking and comparing it to the meals at home. The food at home was made by a master chef, exquisite and delicious, but with the Old Sir Lian seated at the head of the table, everyone ate their meals in a strictly formal manner, not daring to utter a single word.
In the spacious dining room, despite the exquisite food, it lacked the warmth of a family.
In his midnight dreams, Lian Qingyang often thought of the time in Wangjiang County, in Tang Yue's home. The dining room wasn't big, and everyone squeezed together at a square table with only four or five dishes, which wasn't much, but everyone was talking and laughing, making him often envious.
Lian Qingyang took advantage of the moment when Lian Tong was about to go out to speak to Old Sir Lian: "Grandpa, I will go out with my aunt."
"Auntie, can we go too?" Lian Qingzhi and Lian Qingling looked at Lian Tong with eager faces, "We haven't started school yet, auntie, why don't you take us with you?"
"We're going to fight, you want to come too?" Lian Tong's lips curled into a smile.
Lian Qingzhi and Lian Qingling exchanged glances and quickly shook their heads in unison: "No, auntie, we don't want to fight. We thought you were going to Jing City. Next semester we are going to study in Jing City, so I thought we could take a look in advance."
Lian Qingzhi and Lian Qingling took turns speaking. This time, they both were admitted to universities in Jing City. Although not Jinghua University, it was the nearby Qingyuan University.
Originally, sisters Lian Qingzhi and Lian Qingling were supposed to go to Shanghai City University, but Lian Ping insisted they attend university in Jing City, ostensibly to get exposure to the capital of Hua Xia and see more of the world.
But the family understood Lian Ping's real intention was the hope that if they could get along well with Lian Qingyang at Jinghua University, it would be beneficial for the future.
"Auntie, we're off to fight," Lian Qingyang said with a smile, and he and Lian Tong headed out. Once they left the Lian Family house, Lian Qingyang wished he could fly straight to Jing City.
Lian Tong gave him a look: "What, got a girlfriend in Jing City?"o Mo Xiaolin. Now that she had money, Mo Xiaolin certainly wouldn't skimp.
"Good."
Tang Yue nodded her approval. Mo Xiaolin had great taste, and among the many wedding boxes, Tang Yue's favorite was also the one Mo Xiaolin was holding.
As for the types of wedding candies, there was the White Rabbit Creamy Candy, nougat, milk candy, pastry candy, fruit candy – she practically wanted to select every kind of candy.
They planned on putting ten pieces of candy in each box, symbolizing perfection and good fortune.
In Wangjiang County, having eight pieces of wedding candy was already considered quite good, and the variety wasn't as abundant as in Jing City.
"Mom, milk candy and White Rabbit Creamy Candy are both milk-based, let's switch one of them out, what do you say?" Tang Yue suggested, noting that the other candies had distinct flavors.
"What should we replace it with?" asked Mo Xiaolin.
"Chocolate." Tang Yue explained, "It's the chocolate that came with the perfume I brought for you last time. Those chocolates have wrapping paper, and they taste good too, right?"
