“What’s the situation here? Don't you know me or haven't you seen me?” Yang Ruqing looked at Zhao Liuer, asking a little bewildered.

Zhao Liuer pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "How could you not see me? We're not invisible. You haven't been to the old house for a while, you don't know, now she not only pretended not to see us when she saw us, but she also pretended not to see everyone else from our Lao Yang family."

“The other day, Hong'er tripped and fell right at her feet, but she didn't even bother to help her up,” Zhao Liuer said.

"How could this be? What happened again?" Yang Ruqing continued to ask.

Zhao Liuer said: “Specifically, I don’t know very well either, but these days, they haven’t fought less.”

Sometimes I could hear them arguing in the middle of the night. At first, I guess they were trying to save face, both of them whispering angrily in bed.

"Later on, he just didn't care about face anymore, shouting in the middle of the night. I bet all the tea sets were smashed."

Upon hearing Zhao Liu'er's words, Yang Ruqing frowned.

Zhao Liuer continued, "This isn't even the most outrageous part."

"Sometimes, even though Big Brother had just returned from school, the two of them would laugh and chat while cooking in the kitchen."

"Suddenly, because of something her older brother said, or perhaps just an expression he made, she became unhappy."

“She tossed the spatula, and even though she had HIA stir-frying in the pot, she immediately turned around and went back to her room to go to sleep.” Zhao Liuer said.

"Is she asleep?" Yang Ruqing asked again.

Zhao Liuer said, "Whether or not you can sleep doesn't matter. The important thing is to sleep for Big Brother to see, so he gets worried."

"What about your older brother? How does he handle situations like this?" Yang Ruoheng asked curiously.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhao Liuer curled her lips and said, "It's usually coaxing, begging, like begging grandma or ancestors."

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

“After finally coaxing her, my elder brother had to go back to the kitchen and scrape off the burnt dish. Then he had to cook another one of her favorites. That's how we served her, yet we still argued every few days.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Ruqing couldn't help but shake her head.

"Oh my, I suddenly feel so bad for my big brother. How is he managing to live like this?" she said.

If I were a man, having such a woman as my daughter-in-law would drive me crazy.

“Originally, I thought my brother had given up on Ping'er, and Ping'er had also shed tears to sever the emotional ties. Being able to help my brother and Li Xiu's heart reunite would have been a good deed, at least preserving this marriage bond.”

"I didn't expect that they were still a couple of bitter enemies. They fight every day, and I don't know when it will end. Well, never mind, anyway, as long as my big brother can endure it, we just need to eat our turnips and worry less!" Yang Ruqing said finally.

"Well, then, Third Sister-in-law, I'll head out first. If you and Hong'er are free at night, come join us for dinner too!" she said.

Zhao Liuer shook her head with a smile, "Just let your third brother go. It's cold at night, and Hong'er and I won't go out. We'll just have two bowls of noodles at home, and put an egg for Hong'er. Perfect."

Yang Ruqing watched Hong'er, who was over two years old and following Zhao Liuer. The child had grown taller and her face rounder.

His facial features resemble his mother, Chen Jinhong. Chen Jinhong is quite beautiful, so this child will probably grow up to be a handsome man with elegant eyebrows and eyes.

“Third sister-in-law, Hong'er is over two years old now. You have been raising him all this time. Now the child considers you his real mother. He likes to be by your side wherever you go. It's so heartwarming!”

Yang Ruoqing said.

Zhao Liuer also lowered her head to look at Hong'er beside her leg, her eyes full of fondness. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“This child is so endearing. He sticks to me like glue at home, he doesn't even want to be with his own father. If I don't see him for two hours, I get anxious too.” she said.

Yang Ruqing said: "When someone else is a stepmother, they are cruel to the children left by their predecessor. What you do is kind from the heart, so sincerity is met with sincerity, and the children like you."

Zhao Liuer said, "Children are innocent. An adult shouldn't abuse a child; it's immoral."

Yang Ruqing reached out and grasped Zhao Liuer's hand, then felt her pulse at the wrist.

“What’s the matter? Why are you taking my pulse?” Zhao Liuer giggled as she retracted her hand. “I’m perfectly healthy, no pain or illness!”

Yang Ruqing said, “Hong'er is over two years old now. Haven't you and my third brother considered having a child of your own?”

Zhao Liuer was taken aback, and then she realized that Yang Ruqing had just been feeling her pulse to see if she was pregnant!

Zhao Liuer blushed slightly and said, "Next year, maybe. Next year, I should consider having another one. Your third brother wants a little sister."

Yang Ruqing covered her mouth and smiled: "My darling daughter is so thoughtful. Next year, I want a daughter, and the year after that, a son..."

Zhao Liu'er lightly pinched Yang Ruoqing, "Am I a sow? Stop talking, someone might hear and laugh at us."

"Haha, even if you listen to it, you won't be afraid," Yang Ruqing said, "Alright then, let's just say that for now. I'm going back first."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated! ?

Zhao Liuer pulled Hong'er and followed Yang Ruqing: "Come on, we'll see you to the door."

At night, all the men came. Luofeng Tang was busy greeting them. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Yang Ruqing was busy cooking with Ping'er, Cao Baimei, and Yang Rulan in the kitchen at the back.

"I told my third sister-in-law to leave a message for my elder brother. If he's willing to come, he'll be here soon. If he doesn't come, then it's definitely not possible. We don't need to wait, just start eating directly." Yang Ruqing said to them.

Ping'er didn't say a word. Cao Baimei said, "Let's make a bet. I bet Big Brother definitely won't be able to come tonight."

Yang Ruqing pouted, "I bet he won't come either."

Nobody bet he would come, because when they were cooking before, they had all heard about Li Xiu Xin from Yang Ru Qing.

>

Therefore, it is certain that Yang Yongxian will not be coming.

But when Cao Baimei carried a set of clean chopsticks and bowls to the front yard to set the table, she saw Yang Yongxian.

"Aiya, Qinger, we've lost the bet! Big Brother actually came!" Cao Baimei ran back to the kitchen in the backyard excitedly and told everyone.

Yang Ruqing and the others were also surprised.

Please provide me with the content you want to translate. I can only translate the text between the tags, not the tags themselves.

"Li Xiuxin let go?" Yang Ruqing asked.

Ping'er smiled a little strangely and said sarcastically, "She probably doesn't know I'm back. If she knew I was back, she definitely wouldn't let Elder Brother Yongxian come over."

>

When the dishes were served, Ping'er deliberately didn't want to go to the front yard.

Yang Ruqing said, “Don’t you remember what we talked about in your room before? Just forget it. Be straightforward and don’t have any worries in your heart, so you don’t need to be afraid of this and that.”

Ping'er nodded, took a deep breath, adjusted her state, held up the dish and followed Yang Ruohqing to the front yard.

In the front courtyard, men were already seated around a table.

Yang Yongxian and Yang Yongjin sat in a row. Compared to Yang Yongjin's animated conversation, Yang Yongxian's mood seemed much lower. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Although she occasionally smiled along with Yang Yongjin's jokes, her smile was absentminded, even with a hint of bitterness.
