CHAPTER 1060: CHAPTER 1062: NIGHT HAS FALLEN

"Second brother is right; you can’t generalize like that. There are still good women, like Auntie, my mom, my sister-in-law. They are all great." Xu Nianhua chimed in, worried that Cai Shuxue might lose faith in love and marriage because of Jian Mengyu’s situation.

"Anyway, right now I just want to make money; I don’t want to get married." Cai Shuxue didn’t want to talk more about this topic. After finishing a conversation with Xu Nian’an, he asked, "Nian’an, Nianhua, my parents invited you home for dinner today. Are you coming later?"

"I can’t. I’m too busy today. Look, the shop is still in a mess." Xu Nian’an shrugged helplessly. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go; he couldn’t leave. He couldn’t dump all the tasks on Ban Lin.

A young girl like her was already very diligent. You shouldn’t pass all the work to her just because she’s hardworking.

"Alright, how about next weekend?" Cai Shuxue asked again.

"We’re all family; we don’t need to stand on ceremony. Just tell my uncle and aunt we appreciate their kindness, but we won’t be going to eat." Xu Nian’an said, running upstairs to get a bag of items and said, "These are homemade snacks my mom sent."

"Aunt’s snacks are always especially delicious." Cai Shuxue’s eyes lit up when he saw the crispy meat. Aunt’s crispy meat was crunchy and fragrant, exceptionally tasty.

"Well, I’ll come by next week. You can’t be busy all the time, right?"

Before leaving, Cai Shuxue reminded them that they must gather for a meal, to bring everyone together.

"Uncle and Aunt have changed quite a bit." Xu Nian’an said with a sigh, watching Cai Shuxue’s departing figure.

"Changing for the better, that’s great."

Xu Nianhua was optimistic. If only their family was wealthy, she wouldn’t be sure about the relationship between Mom and Auntie in the future. But at least, since Aunt was willing to pay money for Grandpa’s treatment, she wanted to help Uncle’s family.

As everyone became wealthier, relationships grew closer. Looking at Aunt now, seeing all the gifts they brought home, you could tell.

In the evening, Su Jinrong appeared at the boutique, and Xu Nianhua was a bit surprised. "Dad, how did you find the place?"

"I asked Yicheng. It’s getting dark, so I came to take you home for dinner." Su Jinrong looked at Xu Nianhua with affectionate eyes. She was wearing a purple short-sleeve top and light-colored jeans, her ponytail tied high, looking vibrant and youthful. Her busy figure made Su Jinrong feel a pang in his heart.

"Your mom already made dinner at home, including your favorite spicy stir-fried beef and shrimp dumplings." Su Jinrong stepped forward, wanting to help but not knowing where to start.

"Dad, I can handle it." Xu Nianhua placed the items into a small drawer, saying, "Mom’s health isn’t good; she should rest more."

"She’s happy to cook for you; it won’t tire her out." Su Jinrong smiled at Xu Nianhua, then turned to Xu Nian’an, "Nian’an, come over for dinner; I’ll take you to school tomorrow."

"Uncle Su, no need; I still have work to do today. Nianhua, you should head back. The shop is almost tidy now. You can focus on school tomorrow without worrying about the shop. Just manage the translation studio well." Xu Nian’an urged Xu Nianhua to return home. Uncle Su specially came to pick up his little sister, clearly showing how much he cared. He noticed Uncle Su’s concern when he saw her working hard.
