CHAPTER 1022: CHAPTER 1024: HERE TO MAKE HER THEIR GODDAUGHTER?

"Welcome, please come in." Zhou He stepped aside, making room. You don’t hit people with smiling faces, and Su Xi looked around the same age as Xu Nianhua. Zhou He smiled and said, "But unfortunately, Nianhua went out and isn’t home."

Zhou He still didn’t know why Su Xi and her group were visiting, and since they weren’t familiar, she naturally wouldn’t say that early in the morning, Xu Nianhua had gone out with Pei Yicheng, and her mother-in-law kept reminding them to have fun, even if they couldn’t make it back for dinner.

After the incident with the Gu Family, her mother-in-law was very concerned about Xu Nianhua’s mood and kept finding ways to encourage her to take a break.

"It’s okay, I didn’t let Nianhua know when I came, so Nianhua is unaware." Su Xi explained with a smile, walking into the yard. Both sides of the yard were planted with flowers and plants, looking lively. Compared to the Su Family’s villa, the Xu Family’s house seemed smaller, but once inside, it felt clean, tidy, and cozy.

In the living room, there was a family portrait. Xu Qinghe and Ji Ying sat in their new home’s yard, Xu Nianji and Zhou He held their child on the far left, with Xu Nianhua in the middle and Xu Nian’an on the far right. Behind them was the brand-new building, and the family in the photo looked particularly happy.

Jiang Wanru looked at the family portrait and couldn’t help but get teary-eyed.

Zhou He had just finished pouring hot water for them and saw Jiang Wanru standing peculiarly in front of the photo, feeling a bit strange.

"Grandma, find grandma." Zhuangzhuang followed Zhou He like a little tail, tugging at her clothes, looking up with big eyes as if asking: Aren’t we here to find Grandma?

"Zhuangzhuang, wait for a bit, we have guests. We’ll go find Grandma later, okay?" Zhou He held Zhuangzhuang’s hand, answering softly.

"Aunt."

Su Hong’en also noticed the family portrait, pointing at Xu Nianhua and calling out, "Aunt."

Zhou He: "..."

Why was this child calling Nianhua "aunt?"

Just as Zhou He was unsure how to go about fetching her mother-in-law back, Ji Ying returned, and not only Ji Ying came back, but Xu Qinghe also came back.

Aunt Hu watched as Su Xi’s family went to find the Xu Family. She thought it over, and since the incident with the Gu Family hadn’t been long ago, Aunt Hu went to the riverside to search for Ji Ying, who was washing vegetables.

Xu Qinghe’s factory was nearby, and he quickly learned that they had visitors, so he immediately headed home, conveniently meeting Ji Ying there.

"Dad, Mom, you’re back!" Zhou He saw Xu Qinghe and Ji Ying like seeing her saviors, quickly introducing Su Xi, saying, "This young lady is Nianhua’s classmate from Beining University."

"Hello Uncle and Aunt, I’m Su Xi, a classmate of Nianhua’s from Beining University." Su Xi proactively introduced herself and then further added, "This is my big uncle and aunt. Last year, Nianhua hosted foreign guests at their house, and he’s my cousin and his wife, and this is my nephew, Hong’en."

Su Xi introduced them all at once.

"You must be the Aunt Jiang Nianhua mentioned, right?" Ji Ying looked at Jiang Wanru, feeling she looked familiar as she listened to Su Xi’s introduction, and happily said, "Welcome to our home. Nianhua always talked about how you took great care of her in Ningbei and wanted to thank you."

She wondered to herself, it seems the Su Family really liked Nianhua, maybe they came today to make her their goddaughter?
