Chapter 2266: Not Beautiful
Yang Huaming, the fourth son of the Yang family who remained silent at the table: "Lao Si, you and Lao Wu have been following your third brother since childhood. That winter when you fell into the ic...The Sun family's home was also decorated with lanterns and banners, bustling with activity.
Seeing Yang Huazhong's large family come to pay New Year's greetings, Lao Sun and his family were overjoyed. They were busy greeting the adults and welcoming the children.
Da Sun took out a wicker basket filled with thread and needles, and inside the basket was a stack of red envelopes.
“Come, come, come! Starting with Qinger and Tang'ya, everyone gets a red envelope for the Lunar New Year. Wishing you all good luck and prosperity in the new year!”
Da Sun smiled and stuffed the red envelope toward Yang Ruqing and her companions.
Yang Ruqing was startled, then quickly put the red envelope back.
"Aunty, I'm a mother myself now, so why do you still need to give me red envelopes It's not right!" she said.
"Yes, yes," said Da Sun.
Then, he grabbed the red envelope and stuffed it back into Yang Ruqing's hand.
Of course, Yang Ruqing wouldn't agree. The two of them pushed and shoved each other away.

On this side of the warm tub, Grandma Lao, holding Baby Luò, spoke up.
“Qing'er, this lucky money is from your grandpa and me.”
"As long as the two of us old folks are still around, you youngsters owe it to accept the red envelopes we give you. It's tradition, don't you dare break the tradition," Granny Sun said.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Yang Ruqing said, "But, Granny..."
Mrs. Sun immediately interrupted Yang Ruqing's words:
“It’s nothing much, Jie and Xiaojie, I gave both of them, everyone has some, more or less, a little bit of thoughtfulness. Just keep going obediently.”
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Yang Ruqing had no choice but to accept the lucky money, then she, along with Luofeng Tang and Dayan, knelt on the cushion before her parents and paid their New Year's greetings, bowing their heads.
"Very good, very good. All get up and come over for some tea and refreshments," Grandma Sun called out.

Then, Mrs. Da Sun pulled Yang Ruoqing and the others up, and they all sat around the table, drinking tea and eating snacks, chatting casually.
The children then went out to the courtyard and started setting off fireworks.
In a while, footsteps and laughter came from outside again.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Grandsun said, "There's no need to guess; it must be Yongjin and Eighth Sister who came over."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Yang Yongjin walked in with Xiu Xiu in his arms, followed by Cao Baimei who was big with child.
"Goodness, you're so heavily pregnant! You shouldn't be coming over on such a late night. It's the same to come and pay New Year's greetings tomorrow in broad daylight!"
Dà Sūn shì welcomed her forward and supported Cáo bā mèi.
Caobaimei glanced at the room full of people and laughed, "I knew it would be lively here. If you didn't let me come, I would have suffocated staying home alone!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, Big Sister, do you think before you speak" Mrs. DaSun glared at Cao Eight and quickly added.
Cao Baimei was stunned for a moment, then blushed slightly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
There, Granny Sun said, "Children speak their minds freely. If this old woman says there's nothing wrong, then there's nothing wrong. Everything will be fine."
Everyone laughed, tacitly brushing the little mistake aside.

There, under the encouragement and teasing of the crowd, XioXio went around to greet her elders, wishing them well in a childish voice.
The elders all praise that this little girl has received many red envelopes again naturally.
Caobaimei righteously took the red envelope from Xiuxi, and then sent her to play in the outer courtyard.
“With such a big belly, you shouldn't be standing around all the time. Come over here and sit with us.” Yang Ruqing beckoned Cao Baimei over.
Cao Baimei walked over, and Sun Laotai said: "Come, put your feet into the warm bucket, don't get cold."
The men were gathered around the table drinking tea, smoking, and chatting.
The women huddled together in the two warm tubs, shelling melon seeds and chatting.
The topic somehow turned to the big meal at Lao Yang's main house.
"Eight Sister, this is the first year your main family's all getting together for Chinese New Year. Tell us, how did you make such a delicious meal Who cooked it"
Tai Sun gently nudged Cao Baimei's arm and eagerly asked,
Mrs. Sun said, "Sister, there's no need to ask! Since we're celebrating the New Year together, it's definitely the three daughters-in-law cooking together, and then bringing the eldest sister-in-law over to join everyone from the main house for a meal."
Then, Big Sun nodded and grabbed Cao Baimei's arm before asking, "I just want to know who's in charge here"
Cao Baimei said: "It's the third sister-in-law who is in charge of cooking. I'm watching the stove, and elder sister-in-law is helping the third sister-in-law."
> Da Sun was surprised, “How could it be Zhao Liu'er in charge Logically speaking, it should be Elder Sister-in-Law Li Xiu Xin, right What’s going on”
On the side, Old Madam Sun and Mrs. Sun both expressed astonishment.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Yang Ruqing glanced at Gaga, her mother, and her aunt's reactions, not surprised at all.
Because this big meal, who is in charge of cooking it, concerns a relationship of seniority and order.
Women have unwritten rules in the kitchen, and if they were put in men's place, it would be the same.
Before a big meal, incense would be burned in front of Yang Hu'an's memorial tablet. Yang Yongxian, the eldest son, would always stand at the front, representing all his other brothers.
Of course, there are exceptions to the rule of authority in the kitchen sometimes.
For example, before the Yang family split up, elder sister-in-law Jin was incapable of shouldering the burden. Second sister-in-law Yang was lazy and ruined everything, so it could only be third daughter-in-law Sun who took charge.
My wandering thoughts were pulled back by Cao Baimei's voice.
“Well, this story is a bit long to tell.” Cao Eight Sister said,
"Because these few days, my sister-in-law seems to be unwell, and her spirits are not very high."
“The last few times I let her cook, she either forgot to add salt or made it too salty.”
"When cooking, I always get soy sauce and vinegar mixed up, and when cooking rice, it's either undercooked or burnt."
“Recently, I cooked egg noodles for my grandpa. The poached eggs were still runny.”
"I ate so much that I ran to the toilet three times. Grandma was upset and said no more big meals cooked by my sister-in-law. Since I was heavily pregnant, Grandma gave the job of cooking the big meal to my third sister-in-law instead." Cao Baimei said.
>
"Huh So there's such a thing" Grand-aunt Dai was flabbergasted.
"Didn't you always say that this Yongxian's wife is the one Qingerna likes best"
"How come just after entering the door for a few days, it seems like I've fallen out of favor What's going on" Big Sun continued to ask.
Cao Baimei shook her head. She really didn't know the answer to that question.
Here, Mrs. Sun and Yang Ruqing glanced at each other, both mother and daughter tacitly understanding what was going on.
Yes, it's about how there was no bloodstain on Li Xiu Xin's red handkerchief.
Although the eldest brother went to live with Grandma and Grandpa, he took responsibility for himself and even said that he was not good enough.
But, for such private matters, grandparents can't go and personally verify anything.
So, regarding what Elder Brother Yongxian said, it's likely that he maintained a half-believing and half-skeptical attitude.
Even, one might even feel that this could be a fabrication by Yang Yongxian to protect Li Xiu Xin.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
So, before the truth came out, Li Xiu's heart would definitely not be favored by Tan Shi. Therefore, life in the Yang family's backyard was probably not going to be very beautiful either!
