Third person POV
Lin Yingyue: " How are you doing, my dear student?"
Hong er was too confused by all of this revelation, her head became dizzy and she staggered. Lan Mingzhu caught her and worriedly asked Hong er.
Lan Mingzhu: " Are you okay, my child?"
Hong er looked at her worried face and calmed down. Hong er put her hand on Lan Mingzhu's hand.
Hong er: " I'm fine, thank you for helping me beautiful sister."
Lan Mingzhu was ecstatic, Hong er called her beautiful and on top of that Hong er called her sister too. After she gave birth to two sons and one baby in her stomach, she didn't feel youthful anymore. But after being called sister, she felt that youth had came back to her.
Lan Mingzhu: " Oh my, oh my. You are such a good speaker. I am so jealous of your daughter Huiqing ah."
Bai Huiqing: " Ahahaha."
Lan Mingzhu: " You didn't even deny it."
Xu Yingjie walked towards Hong er, he put his hand on Hong er's head.
Xu Yingjie: " Please bear with her behavior, she always wanted a daughter."
Hong er looked up to Xu Yingjie and nodded her head.
Xu Tingfeng: " Now line up everybody, so Hong er can easily remember you."
All of them line up in front of Hong er into 2 rows, Xu Yingjie and Xu Yongzheng stood in front of each line as they were the head of their family.
Xu Tingfeng: " Hong er, This is father's eldest brother, Xu Yingjie, he is your Bo Bo. ( father's elder brother) And his wife, Lan Mingzhu, you have to call her Shen Shen ( Father's brother's wife). The tall boy there is Xu Zhiqiang, he is 15 years old now. And his little brother beside him is Xu Zihao, he is 13 years old now."
Hong er: " Greeting to Bo Bo, greeting to Shen Shen, greeting to eldest Tang brother, greeting to second eldest Tang brother." ( Tang xiong= Tang brother= cousin from paternal side.)
Hong er bowed to them and smiled brightly but she suddenly remembered something. She stuttered and suspiciously looked at Lan Mingzhu.
Hong er: " T-then Shen shen( Lan Mingzhu) is Lan laoshi's younger sister?"
Lan Mingzhu: " Yes! Wow, she is so sharp!"
Xu Tingfeng: " Now the next one, He is father's younger brother, Xu Yongzheng, he is your Shu shu ( father's younger brother) and as you had met her many times, she is Lin Yingyue. She is your mother's bestfriend's little sister. The little twin that stand behind her are Xu Yongliang and Xu Yongrui, both of them are 5 years old. And the baby boy there is Xu Zhaoyu, he is 2 years old."
Hong er: " Greeting to Shu shu, greeting to…"
Lin Yingyue: " Just call me like usual."
Hong er: " Greeting to Lin laoshi. Hi, Yongliang and Yongrui, nice to meet you."
Hong er smiled sweetly at both of them.
Xu Zhaoyu: " Abuu!"
Xu Zhaoyu stretched out his little hands towards Hong er, he cutely looked at Hong er with his big golden eyes. Hong er stretched out her hands to hold Xu Zhaoyu, Lin Yingyue passed Xu Zhaoyu over to Hong er. Lin Yingyue was surprised by Hong er holding Xu Zhaoyu in her embrace.
Xu Zhaoyu squealed, Hong er kissed his cheek and pinched his nose lightly. Xu Zhaoyu looked at his 4 elder brothers and smirked, he ignored their glares and kept playing with Hong er. As for Xu Yongliang and Xu Yongrui were still young, they couldn't held back their jealousy. They didn't slept as they got news that their older cousin sister was coming. But their little brother took all of her attention. They went to Hong er and tugged both of her sleeves. They looked at her with their big puppy eyes.
Xu Yongliang: " Hong jiejie, can you play with us too?"
Xu Yongrui: " Pretty please~"
Hong er's heart was squeezed by their cuteness. She kissed both of their cheeks and smiled at them.
Hong er: " Of course I will play with you two, but now you need to rest. The sky is still dark, little kids should get enough sleep so they can grow up well."
Xu Yongliang & Xu Yongrui: " B-but-"
Hong er: " No buts. I will visit you tomorrow, okay?"
Xu Yongliang & Xu Yongrui: " Ok"
They dejectedly replied, Hong er felt guilty for disappointing them. She kissed their cheeks again and she noticed 2 boys stood behind them. Their faces were gloomy, they looked at Hong er with anticipation in their eyes. Hong er was puzzled by their approach, she tilted her head and look at them.
Hong er: " What's wrong, eldest Tang brother, second eldest Tang brother?"
Xu Zhiqiang: " Call me Qiang ge."
Xu Zhiqiang solemnly said.
Hong er: " Qiang ge?"
Xu Zhiqiang nodded but his face didn't change. Xu Zihao stepped up and expressionlessly said to Hong er.
Xu Zihao: " Me too."
Hong er: " Hao ge?"
Xu Zihao: " Uhm, good."
Xu Zihao patted her head but his hand was slapped by Xu Zhiqiang. Xu Zihao glared at Xu Zhiqiang but Xu Zhiqiang ignored him and just kept staring at Hong er.
Xu Zhiqiang: " You do it to them but not to us?"
Hong er: " Hm?"
Hong er was really clueless, ' What is it?!' Hong er kept thinking in her head. Xu Tingfeng knew that they will fall for his daughter's charm, he sheepishly smiled. He waved his hand vigorously and Hong er noticed Xu Tingfeng's call, Xu Tingfeng pointed at his own cheek. Finally Hong er's brain clicked, ' Oh~ that~'
Hong er stepped forward and signal Xu Zhiqiang and Xu Zihao to bend down. She tiptoed and kissed both of their cheeks. She showed her dazzling smile to them, but she never thought that the shine of her smile would blind everyone. Xu Yongzheng, Xu Yingjie, Xu Tingfeng, Lan Mingzhu, Bai Huiqing, and Lin Yingyue lined up to get their kiss too.
