My Little Sweet Wife-Chapter 727 - Visiting The Qin Family IV
Chapter 727 - Visiting The Qin Family IV
Old Man Xian looked at everything in the house. He didn't know where Xing Jia had gone, but he knew he couldn't get in randomly. He sighed and said, "After all these years, she still doesn't want to see me."
Mrs. Qin acted as if she hadn't heard him and continued playing with Qin Wenqian. The Old Man stood in the middle of the living room, looking a little awkward. Qin Gengxin walked over and said, "Grandfather, please sit down first. I will go see grandmother."
Qin Gengxin helped the Old Man sat on the couch nearest to him. Mrs. Qin saw that the Old Man was sitting in her house and slightly frowned, but seeing that her son was helping him sit down, she said nothing. She just said casually, "Gengxin, you know your grandmother, don't force her."
"Mom, I know my limits." Qin Gengxin glanced at her and went upstairs.
Xian Guiying followed from behind. "I'll go with you."
Mrs. Qin immediately raised her head to look at Xian Guiying. She seemed to have a lot of things she wanted to convey to her daughter-in-law. After thinking for a moment, she said nothing.
Qin Gengxin glanced at the Old Man, indicating that he needed someone to accompany him. However, the Old Man suddenly waved his hand. "I'm fine. The Qin Family didn't welcome me, and I couldn't barge through either. You guys can do whatever you want to do. You don't have to accompany me."
Xian Guiying hesitated for a moment. In the end, she did not follow Qin Gengxin upstairs. Instead, she walked over to the Old Man and patted his shoulder gently. "Grandfather, grandmother will definitely meet you."
Old Man Xian, however, didn't speak.

Qin Gengxin walked up the stairs and looked around before going to his grandmother's room. The door closed and he stood outside the door. He tried to open it and it was not locked.
He pushed the door open and saw the Old Woman sitting in her favorite bamboo chair, holding a plastic bag containing her shoes.
"Grandmother." Qin Gengxin approached her quietly.
However, the Old Woman did not seem to hear him. She just stared at the plastic bag in her hand without blinking.
Qin Gengxin looked at her for a moment, then walked to her side and bent down slightly. He gently put his hand on her back and whispered, "Grandmother, could it be that I brought him here too suddenly?"
The Old Woman slowly raised her head, her eyes a little cold. She looked at him and said, "Ask him to leave."
She closed her eyes and there was no strength in her voice. "I don't want to see him."
Qin Gengxin gently hugged her shoulder and placed his chin on her shoulder like he was a spoiled child. He hugged her and said, "Grandmother, let me tell you, since Xian Tingfeng found out that I am your grandson, he has been thinking of coming to see you. I know that you don't want to forgive him for the rest of your life because of grandfather, but you're old. You don't want to see me so depressed every day, do you?"
"There's no point in you saying that." The Old Woman sighed, "Gengxin, I don't care what you know. In short, I don't want to see him. I'm already old, I don't want any emotional change anymore. I also want to live a peaceful life. When I die, I was able to go see your grandfather. He has been waiting for me for years and since I have suffered all my life, that's what I want to do now. You let him go back, okay?"
Qin Gengxin also knew that he couldn't force the issue. After all, it was his grandmother's wish.
He sighed and patted her shoulder. "But he can't fly right now. We're a long way from home and we can't drive without a break."
"Go! Leave now! Wherever you want to go, go! Even if you have to find a hotel to stay in, go! Don't let me see him!" The Old Woman frowned, her eyes filled with unbearable coldness. "Tomorrow is your grandfather's anniversary, so don't let him destroy my day with your grandfather! There's no need for you to pay respect to him. I'll burn the paper myself!"
"Grandmother, don't be angry …"
"I didn't say anything infuriating! Ask him to leave!" The Old Woman pushed Qin Gengxin's hand away impatiently. "If you don't let him leave immediately, I won't have a grandson like you!"
Seeing her say that, Qin Gengxin looked at her for a moment before smiling and putting his head on her shoulder again. "Alright, grandmother, calm down. This matter is your grandson's fault but do you really have the heart to chase your grandson away? I've only come back once with great difficulty, why are you in such a hurry to chase me away?"
"Who chased you away?" The Old Woman immediately glared at him. "Damn brat, I told you to chase the Old Man named Xian!"
"But he's Guiying's grandfather and Guiying is my wife. He's very old and Guiying can't be at ease letting him stay outside alone. She will definitely accompany him, so I'll definitely go too. Can you bear it?" He laughed.
The Old Woman frowned and looked at him as if she knew that he had intentionally done this, but she did not want to scold him.
"Alright, grandmother. If you really don't want to see him, then I won't force you." Qin Gengxin hugged the Old Woman and said, "Actually, the reason we brought him here, from our Qin Family's point of view, it really is not the right thing to do. However, from my personal point of view, I still hope you all can have a good conversation."
"Is it because of you and Xian Guiying?" The Old Woman asked coldly.
Qin Gengxin released her and sat on the bed. He said in a deep voice, "I know you always disagree with Guiying and me. By the time the news of our marriage reached you, you had become very ill and stayed in the hospital."
"But grandmother, she and I have been in love for over twelve years. Maybe everything we've done during these years can't be compared to your hatred of Xian Tingfeng. Even so, I still hope you'll accept her sincerely."
"Guiying and I …" Qin Gengxin smiled. "When I first saw her, she wasn't even eighteen yet."
An hour passed. Although Qin Gengxin's story for the past twelve years was short, he still told it for an hour.
The Old Woman looked at him silently. "You avoid her because of the stories I told you when you were young."
Because of the old grudge she had against the Xian Family, her grandson chose to avoid his wife. She had caused two people to be delayed for so many years.
"No, that's my problem. It's because I am not mature enough and my actions aren't decisive enough. Also, maybe it's because my courage is lacking, so I don't dare challenge this old grudge you've instigated so many times in my heart." Qin Gengxin said calmly.
The Old Woman nodded. "When your parents and I went to visit you in the United States, I found out that your relationship with Xian Guiying was not very good. I thought this woman used some method to conceive with your child, and I thought that's because you don't like her, then we might as well split you two up. After all, her surname is Xian and now that I think about it, it's all because of me."
"Your grudge isn't wrong. It's just that I shouldn't have met her. Back then, when Xian Zihao and I became brothers, I had thought about it, but he was really worth it. And Guiying is his sister, so sometimes I also think, maybe this is fate."
