Listening to the voices, it seemed like there were more than one person outside.
Ni Yang put away the money and went outside with Ni Chenggui, saying, "We're home."
Ni Cuihua also came out from inside carrying a child in her arms.
As soon as they opened the courtyard gate, they saw a crowd of people standing outside.
If it were someone else, seeing a crowd of people outside would certainly perplex them. But not Ni Yang. She immediately welcomed them warmly, saying, "Uncle Liu, Aunt Wang, Aunt Ling, Grandpa Shi, please come in and have a seat."
Uncle Liu was the one who suggested last time that he would help Ni Yang's family apply for a residential plot (homestead).
Uncle Liu's family was known to be extremely frugal. People usually couldn't even get a sip of tap water from their house. However, his family had never been stingy with Ni Yang.
His wife often brought Ni Yang vegetables and eggs, and even helped Ni Cuihua look after her child.
