CHAPTER 793: CHAPTER 795: DID YOU ADMIT IT?

"How did you know?" Ji Ying was somewhat surprised.

Xu Nianhua smiled, but did not explain.

In front of her, Hu Aihong had already said such things about Liu Sanmei. She couldn’t believe Liu Sanmei had such thick skin.

As for the second uncle and aunt, because Dad had not helped Xu Zhihao, and now Xu Zhihao had run away from home and his whereabouts were unknown, he certainly would not set foot in their house again.

At noon, sure enough, it was just Grandpa Xu Zhong who came over.

Standing at the door, he was still reflecting on how the son he used to worry least about, had now become the most successful one, and Xu Qingjiang...

In his heart, Xu Zhong sighed deeply because of Xu Zhihao’s behavior; he still held a grudge.

"Grandpa," Xu Nianhua greeted him proactively.

"Nianhua, you’re back."

Xu Zhong looked at Xu Nianhua somewhat awkwardly. Initially, because of the year Xu Nianhua took her college entrance exams and got sick from bad food, and later, was not allowed to study, she was now a university student, even scoring full marks in English.

Sometimes, when he heard others admiringly mention Xu Nianhua, he often wondered if everything would have been different if he had not been so adamant that only one of the Xu siblings could study.

"Yes, Grandpa, please come in," Xu Nianhua said with a gentle smile on her face.

"Ok."

Xu Zhong moved his lips, wanting to say more but not knowing how to start.

Just then, Xu Qinghe and Xu Yuchun came in together, easing the awkwardness.

Du Chang and Xu Nian’an arrived around eleven-thirty. Du Chang brought a specially prepared medicinal wine tailored for Xu Qinghe’s health.

"Dr. Du, this is really good stuff!" Xu Qinghe’s eyes lit up seeing the medicinal wine. Last time, after drinking it for a while, his health had clearly improved.

"Good stuff, but don’t consume too much of it."

With a smile, Du Chang said that he would soon be Yicheng’s father-in-law, and if his health was good, it would also lighten Yicheng’s load, allowing the young couple to rest easy, wouldn’t it?

Lunch was particularly lively, with a full table of people, and very lively indeed.

Xu Nianhua also learned the details about Xu Zhihao from Ji Ying’s casual conversation. It turned out, after being forced to divorce, Xu Zhihao could hardly move around the village and had secretly left the village, disappearing without a trace.

"Little sister, are you actually going to send the master back, or are you just calling Yicheng?"

As Xu Nian’an and Xu Nianhua accompanied Du Chang back home, Xu Nian’an asked on their way leaving.

"Both," Xu Nianhua answered frankly. Since she got home yesterday, she hadn’t even been able to make a call to check in. It’s just so expensive to install a phone nowadays; the initial installation costs five to six thousand, and you need to know someone; otherwise, they won’t even install it!

She envied Pei Yining having a telephone at home. Fortunately, this spring, they had gotten electricity in the village, or else it would have been pitch black at night, not even a light.

"You really have no shame," Xu Nian’an teased as he eyed Xu Nianhua, who seemed to have grown an even thicker skin since she started dating Pei Yicheng.

"I’m going to tell Mom you like a girl from our school so much you couldn’t take your eyes off her," Xu Nianhua said teasingly, with a mischievous look.

Xu Nian’an immediately said, "Don’t, please don’t tell her."

He looked at Xu Nianhua anxiously and said, "If Mom finds out, she’ll persistently inquire to the very end, and I won’t get a moment’s peace."

"Brother, are you admitting you like Su Xi?" Xu Nianhua grinned like a little fox.

Xu Nian’an: "..."

Could he take his words back now?
