Haotian looked at Dawang and the others in surprise, never expecting that they would go against the old lady for Lin Lan.
Although they didn’t say anything directly, everyone could tell at a glance that these children were supporting their mother.
Thinking that Haotian turned 16 years old after the new years, every time he saw the old lady scolding his mother, he always felt uncomfortable. Even though he wanted to say something about it, for some reason, he was never able to.
Always feeling that his throat was locked up, those words of rebuttal firmly remained imprisoned, but he never managed to get it out.
After all, his grandfather and grandmother treated him fairly well all the time, so he really couldn’t say anything to contradict them.
But since it was Chinese New Year, he also felt very uncomfortable to see his grandmother being so disrespectful to his mother.
Seeing Dawang and the others supporting Lin Lan now, he felt even more uneasy.
“It’s time to eat,” Old Lady Han felt that she would be pissed off if she continued, so she walked into the east room and asked the Eldest Sister-in-law to serve the dishes.
Eldest Sister-in-law Han brought the rice to the table as Lin Lan also helped.
The Eldest Sister-in-law said, “Third Aunt, you can go and sit on the northern kang, I will do it.”
This kind of small house already couldn’t fit a tall person like Han Qingsong, let alone so many adults and children.
Fortunately, the beams and purlins were connected. Although the house was small, it was deep and large, which led to the southern kang and the northern kang being separated.
The table on the south kang seated the old couple, Han Jinyu and the three sons, whereas the other table on the north kang hosted the remaining women and children.
The problem was just that there were too many children. There were five in Lin Lan’s family alone. The eldest daughter of the First Family was wedded off the year before last, but there was still the eldest son Haotian and the youngest daughter Gumi in the family. Then there were Dafu, Xiaofu and Gaoliang as well. Adding the three wives, there was practically not enough space on the kang to fit everyone.
The north kang was originally small, so it was impossible to squeeze ten children and three adults into such a cramped area.
When Second Sister-in-law Han saw Lin Lan coming, she immediately climbed onto the kang and beat her legs, “Oh, I’m so exhausted, I can’t move because I cooked and served food. Third Family, how lucky you are to come directly and eat; you should try running around for once.”
Gaoliang immediately climbed onto the kang and sat inside, “Mother, I’ll massage your legs.”
Xiaofu had been staying on the kang for a long time as the three mothers occupied most of the kang. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚
The Second Sister-in-law gave Dafu a wink and told him to go to the other side quickly.
Dafu looked at Haotian and the eldest two of Lin Lan’s children, noticing that they were all standing.
Second Sister-in-law Han gave him a wink before he proceeded to climb up, “Then I’ll sit down for a while.”
On the other side, Old Man Han said, “Haotian, come to this table and eat.”
Haotian said, “No need for that, Grandfather. I can just eat a few bites here with my siblings.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Han said to Lin Lan, “Dawang’s mother, come here. Let’s eat in the main room, so don’t go to the table.”
