Besides, Chiang Xiao had long known that Grandma Ge was difficult and unreasonable. Back when they lived together with Ge Dejunās family in Osmanthus Alley, she was already somewhat wary of Grandma Ge coming over, which would cause a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, during the time they lived in Peace Town, they managed to avoid Grandma Ge.
She was already grateful to be able to avoid such trouble from Grandma Ge, so why would she actively bring trouble upon herself?
If Grandma Ge saw her grandfather living well now, who knows what kind of trouble she would stir up?
For such nauseating relatives, itās best not to see them if possible.
Liu Pei also quickly opposed, "Why are you looking for her? Every time she comes, she turns our house upside down! If she finds out that brother-in-law is living well now, who knows what kind of chaos sheāll cause."
Ge Dejun felt a bit awkward.
"I didnāt think it through. I just wanted her to come and apologize to brother-in-law and Little, after all, it was too much. Fine, fine, letās not mention it, donāt let her know brother-in-law is back."
"Exactly." Liu Pei said irritably, "Last time she even asked about big sister, I mean, after ignoring us for so many years, and secretly doing that kind of thing back then, how can she still have the nerve to ask?"
Liu Pei was now living well and thriving, standing tall and not afraid of Grandma Ge at all.
Especially since Grandma Ge had once kicked her daughter and son-in-law out, she still couldnāt get over that anger.
Now she didnāt care about the old house of the Ge family, but she didnāt want Grandma Ge to come live with them either. Anyway, the house now belonged to Xu Linjiang and Ge Xiaotong, and she and Ge Dejun were just staying with their daughter and son-in-law, having nothing to do with Grandma Ge.
Ge Xiaotong had no affection for this grandmother either, naturally siding with Liu Pei.
"Right, donāt let her know that Little and the others are back."
Chiang Xiao said, "Weāll go back to the Capital City this afternoon. Iāve taken quite a few days off already and still owe the teacher several assignments."
Especially the competition He Jin signed her up for, she hadnāt submitted those three paintings yet. Fortunately, He Jin said they needed several days to process the application form over there.
But she couldnāt delay any longer and had to start working on the paintings as soon as she got back.
With this, her time was really quite limited.
"Auntie, when you have time, you should come visit the Capital City too." Chiang Xiao saw Little Bean Bun running around outside with something made of cow dung and mud and couldnāt help but smile.
In these times, there werenāt any electronic products, and children in the countryside had many homemade toys, which they played with happily and without fear of getting dirty.
Folding paper boxes, spinning iron hoops, playing with stones, everything could be shared with playmates.
Itās just that she never seemed to have played with any playmates.
Now seeing Little Bean Bun happily playing outside with two other kids, she also felt like playing, albeit just thinking about it.
Maybe she just didnāt have much childhood fun.
"We canāt get away now," Ge Xiaotong, seeing her continually watching Little Bean Bun outside, also smiled, "Look at that little rascal, how can we get away? And in the factory, Dad, Mom, and Linjiang are all busy, each with their tasks. Weāll estimate that by mid-next year everything will be on track, then weāll come to the Capital City to visit you for a few days. But at that time, you have to cover our food, accommodation, and play, you little rich lady."
Chiang Xiao laughed, "Thatās no problem at all."
