70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 396: Urged to Marry by Grandma
Arriving at this small courtyard, Madam Chen and Old Xu were amazed again. Is this the small courtyard Mumu often talks about? It’s so big, much bigger than the house back home.
"This house is really big. Is it really where you guys live?" Madam Chen exclaimed excitedly.
"It’s okay, the house isn’t that big. If you like it, grandma, you can stay here with us instead of going back." Yin Yang closed the car door and looked at Madam Chen with a smile.
"Not going back is not an option. We’re just here to play for a while." Old Xu waved his hand with a smile, still a bit uneasy. This place is better than expected. They came partly to see Professor Song and partly to see how Xu Mumu is doing here.
Judging by their situation now, they are certainly living well.
Xu Mumu put the little brother on the ground, letting Madam Chen hold him, and together with Yin Yang, they carried these things into the courtyard.
The door of the courtyard opened, and two dogs ran out from inside.
The enthusiastic appearance of the two dogs scared the little guy, and he hid behind Madam Chen.
"Grandma, dogs." The little one was talking in bursts of a few words at a time.
"Don’t be afraid, they won’t bite. Do you want to touch them?" Xu Mumu said with a smile, holding the big dog in front of the little one.
The little guy was quite brave and reached out to touch the dog directly. Realizing the dog wouldn’t bite, he immediately showed a big smile.
With Xu Mumu around, the two dogs naturally wouldn’t bite. Usually, when Xu Mumu and the others are there, the dogs at most bark twice, but they never bite.
"I’ll help carry things." Mrs. Liu saw Xu Mumu and the others return, put down the clothes she was washing, and immediately came over to help them with the things.
"Thank you, Mrs. Liu." Xu Mumu said with a smile, not refusing the help.
"You’re welcome." Mrs. Liu waved her hand with a smile. This job is excellent for her; the hosts are great, and the pay is high. Without this job, she, as a widow, couldn’t raise two children.
Madam Chen looked Mrs. Liu up and down but didn’t say much. Her first impression of this person was acceptable. The courtyard was very clean, and she was washing clothes, showing she was diligent. According to Xu Mumu, she cooked very well, with many merits.
Mrs. Liu helped move the things inside, and Xu Mumu put all of them in the room allocated for them.
Professor Jian was teaching, so only Professor Song was laying on the bed and wasn’t able to come out.
Once Xu Mumu had settled the things, Yin Yang had already brought the elderly couple into their room and was talking with Professor Song.
Professor Song had a gentle smile, "If you’re not comfortable living here, just let Yin Yang know, and he’ll take care of it."
"Why wouldn’t we be comfortable? The house is so big here, and we don’t have to worry about food and drinks." Madam Chen spoke genuinely. It’s true. Ever since their granddaughter entered college, their life couldn’t be better. This was everything she ever dreamed of.
"That’s true." Professor Song paused slightly. This kind of life is indeed quite good, much better than the times when it was hard to get a hot meal during the countryside visits.
Old Xu was chatting with Professor Song, while Madam Chen took the little guy around the courtyard, exploring. The little guy was endlessly curious about everything here.
"I’ll go help with the cooking; you keep an eye on the little brother and don’t let him break anything." Xu Mumu said to Yin Yang with a smile.
"Don’t worry, I’m here." Yin Yang nodded with a smile. He couldn’t help much in the kitchen; his cooking was worse than Xu Mumu’s, so he better not create more chaos.
In the kitchen, plenty of ingredients had been bought earlier.
In the courtyard, the little guy was joyfully chasing the two dogs, while Madam Chen was asking Yin Yang various questions about this place.
Yin Yang didn’t hide anything from Madam Chen and explained the situation here in detail.
Madam Chen listened to Yin Yang while nodding, becoming increasingly satisfied with him.
"Yin Yang, you and Mumu aren’t young anymore. When are you planning to get married?" Madam Chen asked while sipping the honey water Yin Yang had brought her. Such a good grandson-in-law should be seized promptly. This girl is really laid-back, having been with him for over a year now; it’s time to get married.
"Grandma, Mumu and I plan to get married during the New Year. Since you’re here now and my grandpa has nothing to do, we might as well settle the wedding plans." Yin Yang’s eyes lit up instantly. He was more eager than Madam Chen, wanting sooner to have his beloved girl snuggled in the arms.
"That sounds great; it indeed needs to be discussed. You young ones don’t understand the traditions, so we have to handle these things." Madam Chen was instantly satisfied with Yin Yang’s words.
"Grandma is right." Yin Yang chimed in, smiling. Oh, his girlfriend’s grandma was so thoughtful; soon she would be his own grandma.
When Professor Jian returned from class, he saw Madam Chen and the others, along with the little one running around the courtyard.
Professor Jian greeted the elderly couple with a smile and went to check on the injured Professor Song.
"People who read a lot really seem different from others," Madam Chen said with some sentiment, watching Professor Jian go into a room to place books. Educated people truly differ greatly from those doing labor in the countryside.
Yin Yang didn’t respond. The Old Xu Family came from a long line of poor farmers; real education started when Xu Mumu joined and urged the family to begin studying, which really differed from families with profound academic roots.
Professor Jian had studied overseas before; his knowledge was outstanding, and after years of labor, his aura naturally became more remarkable.
"Yin Yang, when are you and Mumu on vacation? Mumu mentioned there are lots of fun things in Imperial City." Madam Chen was extremely curious about everything here in Imperial City.
"We have three more days until vacation. Once we’re off, Mumu and I will take you to explore all of Imperial City." Yin Yang said seriously.
When Professor Jian came out, Madam Chen was still asking Yin Yang about the fun places in Imperial City.
Professor Jian joined the conversation, having lived in Imperial City before and naturally knowing the area well.
When Xu Mumu and the others finished preparing the food, the discussion was lively, debating over which place was the most fun to visit first.
Xu Mumu smiled softly. The aroma caught the little guy, who had already run into the kitchen, eagerly watching his sister, conveying just one wish: he wanted to eat, hungry.
Xu Mumu gave him a chicken claw to gnaw on himself. The little guy finally left the kitchen, a tiny bundle. Xu Mumu was really worried that she might accidentally bump or step on him.
