Chapter 232 Extra - Perfect Ending
"Make sure you don't mix up these two desserts when they're served."
The cook, who had worked for the Nian family for over twenty years, couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this: "Madam, isn't today the day the two young ladies bring their sons-in-law home to meet everyone? You didn't give them a single word of advice about their tastes."
Upon hearing this, Madam Nian also smiled.
"They're already calling him my son-in-law, so of course they have to eat whatever my daughter likes. Do you expect my daughter to cater to them?"
The aunt nodded repeatedly, "That's true, that's true."
Mrs. Nian looked around again to make sure everything in the kitchen was almost done before nodding and saying, "Then you all keep busy here. I'll go check on how the dining room is decorated."
After saying that, she walked out.
The new young maid, who was standing nearby assisting the servants, looked on with envy and whispered, "Madam really dotes on her daughter."
Upon hearing this, the aunt smiled and replied, "That's for sure."
The young maid asked curiously, "But I've never quite understood. Why does the family always say there are two young ladies? So who's the older sister and who's the younger sister?"
Upon hearing this, the aunt laughed even harder.
"Yes, yes!"
As she worked efficiently, the aunt recounted her past in detail.
These were all interesting stories.
These two daughters are considered to be the youngest daughters of the Nian family.
At that time, the eldest child was pursuing a master's degree and the second child had gone to university. The elderly couple rarely had time to enjoy each other's company at home, and their old feelings rekindled, so they spent every day together.
As a result, while they were enjoying their time together, before they knew it, another baby was born.
First of all, they are a pair of daughters.
She lowered her voice slightly, but her excitement was palpable: "As for the birth order, it's because on the day the two girls were born, the husband was overjoyed and kept running around, causing a lot of trouble for the nurses, and even messed up the children's wristbands. Later, they couldn't tell which one came out first and which one came out later. Mrs. Nian could only make the decision—"
If you can't tell the difference, then don't. They're probably all the same size.
The young maid chuckled, "Oh, I see. But they all look different, so I thought..."
One of them was brought in from outside.
She quickly shook her head, suppressing the thought of the plot of a certain fruit novel that was welling up in her mind.
"Fraternal twins, you know," the older woman replied casually while chopping vegetables. "But you know what, the two young ladies do have very different tastes. From the things they liked since childhood, from colors and flavors to clothing, they were all different. But to say they were completely different wouldn't be entirely true."
"They both love horseback riding, are excellent archers, and have strong tempers."
As soon as the aunt said this, she quickly looked up at the doorway. Seeing that no one had come in, she breathed a sigh of relief and continued in a low voice:
"The difference is that Miss Shilan looks older, while Miss Yanzhi, despite her gentle and quiet demeanor, can make you cry if you really encounter trouble. Miss Shilan might scold you a couple of times, but Miss Yanzhi can make you cry without being able to cry."
"If I had to pinpoint their biggest similarity—"
The aunt paused for a moment, then her smile softened slightly.
"Even if they are all filial, they all love to cling to their parents."
"They don't even want to go to university in other places, for fear of being too far from home. Unlike many young people nowadays, who will run away as soon as they have the chance, wishing they could be 800 miles away from home, and that coming back once a year is considered fulfilling their filial duty."
As soon as she finished speaking, a series of voices came from the hall outside.
The person has arrived.
They quickly stopped chatting and sped up their work.
"Hello uncles and aunts, hello brothers, I am Yin Wu, please take care of me in the future."
The young man standing next to Yan Zhi spoke first, with a cheerful smile and bright eyes. He spoke with a natural sense of closeness, not at all distant.
Zhang Yun, standing next to Shi Lan, appeared much more composed.
He was handsome and had a generous and proper demeanor, but since it was his first time visiting someone's home in a proper manner, there was still a hint of restraint and caution between his brows.
"I am Zhang Yun. Zhang is composed of the radical 'bow' and the character 'day'. Hello, uncles and aunts, and brothers."
Nian Xiyao, the eldest brother of the Nian family, stood by the sofa, adjusted his glasses, and nodded slightly, his expression revealing neither joy nor anger.
Meanwhile, the second brother, Nian Gengyao, crossed his arms and scanned the two men with an extremely unfriendly gaze.
Upon seeing his expression, Shilan immediately frowned: "Second Brother, what's with that look on your face? If you don't want to eat properly, then get out."
Nian Gengyao's lips twitched, and he was about to speak when Madam Nian strode out from the other end of the dining room, her face full of smiles: "Alright, what are you all standing there for? It's rare for the children to come back together, so sit down and talk."
As she spoke, her gaze fell on her two daughters' faces, and her heart softened.
One is bright and beautiful, the other is gentle and graceful.
They look completely different and have very different personalities, yet when they stand together, you can immediately sense an inexplicable closeness between them.
She suddenly realized that the greatest blessing in her life was that both of her children were alive, well, and willing to bring their loved ones home to meet her.
Father also came out of the study. When he saw the people in the room, he smiled and greeted them for a few words, then invited the two of them to sit down.
Yin Wu was not intimidated at all. After sitting down, she warmed up the atmosphere with just a few words, and even her usually stern older brother relaxed his brow a little.
Zhang Yun was quieter, and her answers were very measured.
But whenever Shilan raised an eyebrow or opened her mouth, his gaze would involuntarily fall on her, his nervousness mixed with an undisguised indulgence.
Nian Gengyao witnessed all of this, and his face grew even uglier.
Mrs. Nian became happier and happier as she looked at the food, and urged the aunt to serve the dishes quickly.
The hall was brightly lit, and the aroma of food wafted out. The sounds of conversation, laughter, and Nian Gengyao's occasional displeased groans all blended together, making one feel that the most perfect thing in the world could not be more perfect than this.
Shilan and Yanzhi sat there, and when their eyes met occasionally, they would unconsciously smile.
It felt like an eternity had passed, and finally, in this lifetime, it truly came to fruition.
All the love, hate, and resentment of the past are long gone.
Before me now are lights, family, and nagging.
They finally all had a place to come from.
They all found their way home.
