Xinyan and the others didnât stay here for long; they bought some things and headed back.
Because they only had a three-day holiday, they could stay another day tomorrow, but would have to leave the day after.
Granny Zhang mentioned that she was just accompanying Xinyan to the Capital, as she felt her health was good enough to take care of herself, and she just wanted to look around, stay for a short while, and then return.
Xinyan understood Granny Zhangâs thoughts, but she didnât want Granny Zhang to return to the town alone anymore; she was focused on repaying Granny Zhangâs kindness over the generations.
However, Granny Zhang insisted on her decision, and Xinyan had no choice but to compromise, otherwise Granny Zhang wouldnât come with them this time.
As they approached the house, they finally managed to reach an agreement.
They just noticed someone sitting in front of the house from a distance.
As they got closer, they could see clearly that the person was indeed Granny Gou.
Seeing Granny Zhang and the others return, Granny Gou stood up smiling, "Hey Aunt Zhang, where have you all been?"
While itâs hard not to be angry at what Granny Gouâs daughter-in-law said, itâs also not fair to hold it against her mother-in-law.
But Granny Zhang knew that the Gou familyâs intention to occupy her house was known by them all, so she calmly asked, "Gouâs sister-in-law, do you need something from me?"
Granny Gou awkwardly smiled, "Iâm aware my thoughtless daughter-in-law upset you, so as her mother-in-law, Iâm here to apologize on her behalf. Sheâs kind of foolish.
But Aunt Zhang, you know our familyâs situation. My little grandson has been dating his partner for quite some time, but he doesnât have a house to get married in. Weâre thinking of renting a house for the wedding.
As you understand, housing is tight in this area, and thatâs why we discussed it at home and thought to ask if you could rent us one of your rooms.
But unexpectedly, that thoughtless one messed things up and said something inappropriate, causing you annoyance. We sincerely apologize for that."
Having lived here for so long, Granny Zhang knew very well the circumstances and the character of each family, so she just listened without taking it seriously, "Gouâs sister-in-law, as an elder, I wouldnât hold grudges against a junior, donât worry.
However, I donât rent out my house. Xinyan wants me to live in the Capital long-term, but as you know, when we get older, we canât leave our own home.
I wouldnât want to dampen the childâs spirit; I also want to see the Capital, so I plan to stay with her for a short while, and then return. You know I enjoy peace, so my house is definitely not for rent, please find elsewhere."
With things said this clearly, Granny Gou had no reason to linger, and awkwardly replied, "Alright, Aunt Zhang, I understand. You take care; Iâll leave now."
Once she left, Granny Zhang finally said, "Canât start renting the house; Iâve already told Grandma Su that while Iâm away, sheâll occasionally come tidy up my house."
Since Granny Zhang had planned everything, Xinyan naturally had no objections.
Han Jingchen stepped out while Xinyan and the others were tidying up.
Unexpectedly, shortly after he left, the Yu Family came over. Because the gate wasnât closed, Yuâs mother walked right in, "Xinyan, Mom came to see you."
From He Jinxuanâs phone call, Xinyan knew the Yu Family would visit, but she didnât expect them to come so quickly.
