Chapter 733: The More Children You Have, the Greater the Burden

In East Province, the He Family is packing their things, preparing to head to the Capital tomorrow by car.

Mother He looked at the items to be taken, "Old man, the Third has said, Xinyan’s biological father is a leader at work, and Xinyan’s mother has also returned from abroad. Do you think taking these things over there will even catch their eye?"

Mr. He looked at the things placed at the corner of the kang bed, "What we’re bringing shows our sincerity. They’ve seen everything. It’s already decided; we’re just going through the motions. Just be mindful of what you say, that’ll do."

Mother He thought the same, and Jinxuan also mentioned that it’s enough for their people to be present, and he would take care of the engagement ceremony himself.

After packing the things, she spoke, "His father, are you really not letting the Second Household come along?"

Mother He wanted to use He Jinxuan’s engagement as an opportunity to ease the relationship between the brothers.

Mr. He frowned upon hearing this, "The Third’s engagement is a joyous occasion. What if something goes wrong? Do you want the Third to hate us?

Moreover, even if you invite them, do they have the face to come?

Oh, perhaps the Second son’s wife might really have the nerve to come, but given her nature, can you guarantee she won’t cause trouble?"

Mother He fell silent for a moment.

Mr. He sighed, "Besides, the First and Second sons aren’t even speaking now. I can guarantee that if the Second couple follows, the First couple will definitely find an excuse not to come. They won’t consider it, so don’t waste your effort."

Mother He nodded, put the bag on the cabinet, and thought about the youngest daughter-in-law, "The wife of the Fifth is pregnant, and she insists on going too. She won’t listen no matter how we try to persuade her."

Mr. He looked out the window, "Just say less, she’s with the Fifth, and we don’t have much luggage anyway. Plus, it’s not too far. If she wants to go, let her. She’s pregnant, so don’t upset her."

Mother He was a bit unhappy that the old man always opposed her, "Having so many children is a burden."

Suddenly, she thought of something, "How about we take the Second son’s Jiahui along? The kid has been so gloomy these past few days, it makes my heart ache to see it."

Mr. He nodded without thinking much, "That’s fine."

He thought even if the First and Second were in disagreement, at least the First shouldn’t have any issue with a child.

Thus, on the night before departure, they added He Jiahui from the Second Household.

The next day, before dawn, the He Family bustled and prepared to set off.

Except for the slightly anxious He Family elders, everyone else was very excited. After all, it was their first time going to Beijing.

Once on the train, the little ones chattered non-stop; after all, it was their first long train journey.

He Yanqing sat opposite her parents, holding her over-one-year-old daughter, "With so many of us going to Beijing, the Han Family must see how much we value them, right?"

Mr. He looked up at his daughter, "When we get to Beijing, watch your words. Know what you can say and what you can’t. Weigh it yourself. Don’t go running your mouth and causing trouble."

He Yanqing was a bit upset to see her father not sparing her any dignity, "Dad, what did I say that made you say this to me?"

Mr. He glanced at the son-in-law next to him, "Watch her these days."

Cui Ziqiang saw his wife rolling her eyes and replied with a smile, "Dad, I know."

He Yanqing glared at her husband, "Why are you echoing him? Just stay out of it."

Cui Ziqiang wasn’t angry, "Come on, Dad is just looking out for you. After all, this Third Sister-in-law’s family isn’t simple. We absolutely can’t speak carelessly. Just remember that."
