Everyone turned around and saw Xiao Xiuer angrily running to the stone table.

"Who are you? How dare you eat my good food!"

She put her hands on her hips, striking a pose as if she were about to fight a bull.

She imitated the way her neighbors cursed in the street, but she hasn't yet mastered the skill of cursing while jumping.

Liu Meifen and Chang Kun were both filled with helplessness. This little Xiuer didn't learn anything good and brought shame to the country.

Chang Kun quickly pulled Xiu'er aside and pointed to Hongxia and Zixia, saying, "These two are older sisters, this one is called Auntie, and this is Uncle..."

Xiuer listened to her elder brother's words. Seeing so many strangers in the courtyard, she clung tightly to Chang Kun's side.

"Auntie, Uncle... Sister..."

"Hey, dear sister!"

Seeing Xiuer with her two pigtails and chubby little face, Wang Hongxia couldn't help but reach out and pull her to her side.

Speaking of this Xiuer, her personality is somewhat like Wang Hongxia's; they're both fierce and bold.

"Xiuer, do you want to share the good food with your two older sisters?" Chang Kun knew that Xiuer was generous. No matter how much she quarreled with Xiao Qing and the others, she would still share the good things.

"Oh well!"

Xiuer leaned on the stone table, looked at Xiao Zixia who was only slightly older than her, and asked curiously, "What's your name?"

"My name is Zixia, what's yours?"

"I'm Xiuer, are you my older sister?"

Little Zixia nodded excitedly. She was the youngest in her family before, and now that she's become the older sister, she's especially happy.

"Okay, then I'll share some treats with you. My brother said this is called QQ candy, it's soft and sweet, and it's really delicious!"

The two girls chattered away, sharing their food. Wang Hongxia put on a rabbit ear headband, looked around, and ran to the mirror by the wall to admire herself.

"Hey, I made the right choice in acknowledging this brother; I've never seen anything like it before!"

Now that Chang Kun is my cousin, my mother doesn't need to introduce me to any blind dates anymore. This is a really good result!

The sisters Liu Meifen and Liu Meiling huddled together, whispering to each other, sometimes crying out, sometimes laughing.

Minister Wang and Chang Kun smoked and remarked that they never expected their child's mother would be able to find her family in her lifetime.

In the chaos of war, so many people lost their families and lives. To be able to find one's relatives after being separated is truly a blessing from God.

Chang Kun was also very happy. He had never heard his mother mention that she had a younger sister before. He figured his mother didn't want to talk about such sad things, so as not to upset the family.

At this moment, Cheng Min led Xiao Qing and the others into the courtyard. They were taken aback by the lively scene inside.

"Xiaomin, come here quickly," Liu Meifen called out.

"This is Chang Kun's girlfriend, they're getting married soon..."

"Xiaomin, this is your uncle, your aunt, this is your sister Hongxia, and this is your sister Zixia..."

After the introduction, Cheng Min was a little surprised. Aunt Liu Meifen only had one younger brother, so how come she had a younger sister?

After listening to Liu Meifen recount how the family had been separated and how they had coincidentally reunited, Cheng Min felt a deep sense of sorrow.

She then thought of her own mother, who had also been separated from her during the war and had not been heard from since.

I remember Chang Kun saying he had a way to help me find my mother, but I don't know if that still counts.

Thinking of this, her eyes involuntarily turned to Chang Kun.

Chang Kun smiled slightly, knowing what Cheng Min was thinking at that moment, and nodded gently to her.

He thought that after the two of them got married, they could travel together legitimately and go to the south to see how Cheng Min's mother and younger brother were doing.

Xiaoqing and the others seemed to understand but not quite, but they were all overjoyed to know that they had gained two more sisters.

"Are you Little Zixia? Are you Sister Hongxia?"

Several little girls huddled together playing, while the adults chatted amongst themselves.

Decades have passed since they last met, and their appearances have aged, but the bond between the Liu sisters has only grown stronger.

After chatting for a few minutes, Cheng Min took the initiative to go to the kitchen to get busy.

She knew that on such a big family reunion, the two sisters would never run out of things to say, and given Liu Meifen's personality, she would definitely invite the whole family to stay for dinner.

Seeing this, Chang Kun also went into the kitchen to help.

Seeing her eldest daughter, Wang Hongxia, standing there like a statue, Liu Meiling glared at her impatiently: "Didn't you see your brother and sister-in-law are busy? Don't you have any common sense?"

She had so much to say to her sister, and she didn't stand on ceremony. She decided to have dinner here that night and would replenish her sister's food supplies later.

These days, everyone's food rations are fixed.

Even when eating at your own parents' or son's house, you have to bring your own food ration coupons, otherwise if one person eats more, the others will go hungry.

"Where were we? Oh, didn't Xiao Kun save Zixia twice? I thought he was a good young man, and I was even thinking of bringing Hongxia to see him..."

Liu Meifen laughed and said, "The blood of our Liu family can't be bad! What's wrong with Hongxia? She's still not engaged?"

"Hmph! Always acting like a tomboy, running around here and there, walking the cat and playing with the dog, even imitating boys fighting... Sigh..."

Liu Meifen glanced at Wang Hongxia: "Hongxia is so much better, tall and pretty, how could she be as bad as you say?!"

Liu Meiling poured out her grievances: "You have no idea, Hongxia is the eldest child in her family. I've raised her like a boy since she was little, and as a result... I can't change it now!"

"But now it's all good. With Chang Kun as her nephew, he's practically her son. Hongxia can go with her as she pleases. Just don't regret it when she becomes an old maid."

Wang Hongxia, annoyed by her mother's harsh words, wandered off to ride her little donkey.

"See, see, I told you she looks like a tomboy... What kind of girl is this old and still riding a donkey?!"

Liu Meiling glared at her eldest daughter a few times. She had just met with her sister today, so she decided to save face for her and teach her a lesson when they got home.

"Hey bro, where are you going?"

Riding on the back of the little donkey, Wang Hongxia looked very happy. Seeing Chang Kun walking towards the door, she became a little curious.

Chang Kun chuckled and ignored her.

He overheard his aunt and mother's conversation and found that his aunt was right; his second sister really was a bit of a tomboy.

When the other girls saw Wang Hongxia riding away on her little donkey, they all shouted in unison, "I want to ride it too!"

"Second sister, it's my turn!"

"Line up from oldest to youngest!"

For children, things they steal taste the best, and things they steal to play with are the most fun.

Wang Hongxia rode on a donkey with her back straight and her posture majestic, which made the other girls extremely envious.

Xiao Qing and the others, who were tired of riding donkeys all the time, wanted to ride on their backs again.

Chang Kun took the opportunity to slip out the door and pulled out a large sack from his spatial storage.

Prawns, mantis shrimp, blue crabs, grouper, conch, yellow croaker, sea cucumbers—these seafood items were stuffed into sacks like they were free.

As a minister, my aunt's husband certainly doesn't lack meat at home. Even if he took out roast suckling pig, mutton, wild donkey meat, or even bear paws from his spatial storage, it would probably be just an ordinary thing for him.

But these fresh seafood items in the space are extremely rare in the capital at this time.

The reason why Yang Guifei's lychees were so expensive was simply because they were difficult to transport and store.

Finally, he took out a treasured tiger meat medicinal dish from his spatial storage. Even his uncle, who was a minister, probably rarely saw such a thing.
