Raising My Wife novel Chapter 57

"Come on, Molly. You like Lily so much." Shirley found that Molly was playing balls with Lily. "This is Molly's most precious ball! It seems that there is a good fate between Lily and Molly. "

Hearing that, Lily stood up. Seeing that, Molly ran over and rubbed against Shirley's leg, wagging its tail.

"I like Molly, too! Molly is so obedient! " Molly and Lily had been playing for a long time. Lily was not as nervous as before, and she began to chat with Shirley.

Shirley liked Lily, and she was very happy to see that Lily liked Molly so much. "That's good. Come and have dinner first, and then play with Molly."

James walked over. "Follow me." He looked at Lily's confused face and added, "wash your hands with me. You've just played with Molly for a long time. Why don't you wash your hands?"

It sounded like James was reproaching Lily. But the adults present all captured the love in his voice.

Lily didn't think too much and followed behind James. She went to wash her hands and was ready to eat.

Perhaps because they hadn't had dinner together for a long time, they felt a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, Shirley was active and said, "James, pick up food for Lily. Cleve, don't stand still, pick up food for Rachel, and Rachel has been busy with us this afternoon. "

"I'm just helping mom. How can I help her?" Rachel smiled sheepishly and looked humble.

Although there were only five or six persons eating, Shirley prepared a large table of dishes. Generally speaking, it was not ordinarily sumptuous. But many dishes were complicated in procedures and labor of efforts, and it took a long time to make them.

"We are a family. Our family seldom gather together in a year. This year, James won't go abroad and Cleve will come back. At the last day of the year, all the members of our family are together. How happy we are. So, I propose a toast for our gathering. "

Everyone in the room echoed her. Shirley always talked about family reunion, and now she was the happiest one among all the people. Of course, they didn't want to make her unhappy.

There had been no young people in the house since before, so the servant did not notice to pour the red wine into Lily's glass. James took a look at it and brought the glass over. Then he waved at the servant next to him, "go and make a glass of juice."

"Oh, I forgot! That's it! Please give Lily a glass of juice! " Shirley was surprised that her son should be so considerate, although he used to be indifferent to anything. After all, he was a "father" now.

After changing the juice, the episode was over.

Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate the reunion.

Jonathan picked up some food for his wife and said gently, "thank you."

"You don't have to do that. I can't be happier if we can unite as a family!" Thinking that Molly was the only one to accompany their old couple at ordinary time, watching the whole family sitting on a table for dinner, Shirley felt warm in her heart.

"By the way! Mom, won't those several cousins come this year! I don't want to upset myself. " The nightmares a few years ago flashed through Cleve's mind.

Everyone's face darkened except for Lily.

"Even if you don't want them to come, they still don't want to come!" Although Jonathan didn't like those young men, she was still the elder of the Ling Family. She couldn't say things so casually.
