Dreaming of Lion Rock: Recipe in Hand

Chapter 139 Grandson-in-law

The sudden recognition activity made Old Master Chu and the other two stunned. How come the granddaughter they just recognized already has a partner, and she is still so young. Well, she is not young anymore, she is 24, and she is over the marriageable age.

It was Old Lady Chu who reacted first. She kicked the old man and finally woke him up.

Old Mrs. Chu: Oh my god, I thought he had a stroke due to his old age!

Old Master Chu: Why did this damn old woman kick me? But he also knew that this was not the time to pursue the matter of kicking him, so he looked this person up and down.

OK, 180cm tall, not too short, the guy has a decent body, pretty strong. Well, the face is okay, thick eyebrows and big eyes. How can this grown man have two dimples on his face, and he smiles, but his smile is too frivolous, immature... I need to investigate him further!

Old Master Chu raised his chin proudly, "Sit down and eat with us! Sit wherever you want."

He Yanqing had already had lunch, but since this was the first time his father-in-law invited him to dinner, he could have three more bowls even if he was full!

It was just that Xiaochan came to serve the dishes, and Mrs. Chu hurriedly invited He Yanqing to eat. She also asked where He Yanqing lived, where he worked, what position he held, and whether he had a house or savings...

He Yanqing was sweating all over his forehead after the questioning. Afterwards, He Yanqing said to Chunni, "What a kind old lady she is. She asked very practical questions. She almost asked about my entire ancestry, but she made me sweat. I was trembling with fear, treading on thin ice, afraid that if I said something wrong, she would oppose us being together!"

After finally finishing his meal, He Yanqing said goodbye and left. He had to go to work in the afternoon! He had never loved work so deeply before! But before leaving, he told Chunni that he would come to visit his grandparents in a few days after he had a rest.

Afterwards, Chunni and her friends returned to Lion Rock.

"Nier, your place is really nice, with beautiful mountains and clear waters."

“It must be cool in the summer.”

"scenery is beautiful."

Grandpa and grandma are very grateful to Lion Rock, the land that raised their daughter. Thinking that they will live here for a long time in the future, they love Lion Rock even more.

"Chun Ni, I heard you went to the capital! Why are you back?"

"Chun Ni, are these three your relatives?"

"These are my grandparents and my aunt."

"Chun Ni, my rabbits are about to be sold. Will you take them in?"

"Chun Ni, do you need any help in your store? Let's see what my boy is like."

We greeted each other along the way and arrived at Chunni's house. Chunni opened the gate of the courtyard. There were white walls and black tiles. There were some flowers in full bloom in the courtyard, and there were also some newly grown banana and walnut trees...

"Grandpa and grandma, we're home, come in quickly."

Mrs. Chu thought that she would not be able to get used to living in the countryside with Chunni. Unexpectedly, although Lion Mountain is remote, it has a pleasant climate and beautiful scenery. What is even more surprising is that Chunni's yard is a large one with two courtyards in front and back. The house is also spacious and bright. The living environment is better than in the imperial capital.

Old Mrs. Chu was very satisfied. She was prepared to endure hardships in the countryside. She was not afraid of hardship for the sake of Da Niuniu's children. But it would of course be better to have a more comfortable living environment now.

"Grandpa and grandma, come with me. This room belongs to Xia Zhi. He's in the army and won't be back for a while, so you can stay here for the time being. This is the study, this is the bedroom, and there's a toilet inside."

Old Master Chu looked around and was very satisfied with the house, and the toilet was the most satisfying. You know, their house in the capital didn't have a toilet, and they had to go to a public toilet far away to use it. Not to mention the distance, they had to queue up, and if they got diarrhea, it would be so painful...don't even mention it!

"Not bad, not bad. We'll stay here."

"Aunt, you can just live in Qiuguo's room."

Chu Hua hesitated, "Then Qiu Guo won't come back?"

"She's studying very hard. She only comes back for two days a month and she can live with me then."

Seeing that Chunni made the arrangements quickly, Chu Hua readily agreed.

The Chu family's old couple were old after all, and after sitting on the train for several days, they were a little tired. Chunni and her aunt hurriedly helped them clean up the house and let them have a good rest.

As soon as Chunni went out, she met Wang Lamei who had just come in.

"Chun Ni, I thought it was Qiu Guo. It's only Thursday. I was wondering, shouldn't she be in school? Turns out it was you."

When Chunni saw the newcomer, she hurriedly introduced Chu Hua, "Aunt, this is my uncle's cousin."

"Sister-in-law, this is my aunt."

"Oh, there are visitors at your house! Why didn't you tell me earlier? I'll go tell mom later." When Wang Lamei reached the gate of the courtyard, she remembered Xue Shaohong's instructions again. She said, "Chun Ni, you just went to the capital for two days, and Comrade Xue received a phone call and hurried back to the south."

"I thought she was out having fun again! OK, I'll go to the post office and call her when I'm free."

After saying that, Wang Lamei went home. Chunni could hear her loud voice in the yard! "Mom, mom, Chunni is back! And she brought guests with her!"

Chunni...

"Aunt, let's wait. My aunt will come to my house soon."

Chu Hua met many loud-voiced women when she went to the countryside. They were hardworking, straightforward, and could hold up half the sky. She didn't dislike them, but rather liked their temperaments. How simple and kind!

"In fact, my sister-in-law was very gentle and polite when she first got married, but I don't know how she became like this later."

Chu Hua nodded in understanding.

It was only a moment, less than a few minutes, before the old lady arrived. Chunni introduced the two to her family first. When the old lady saw the two of them, she rolled up her sleeves and helped to clean up the house, and reminded her daughter-in-law, "Lamei, An'an and Pingping should be waking up soon, go back and take care of them." An'an is Wang Lamei's son, and Pingping is her little daughter who is only a few months old.

After helping Chunni clean up, the aunt went back home. Before leaving, she said, "Chunni, bring your grandparents and aunt to my house for dinner tonight!"

Chunni agreed when she thought of the empty kitchen.

That night, Mr. and Mrs. Chu met Mr. Yang whom they had not seen for thirty years. They had a great chat and recalled the old times.

"Big brother, I want to thank you for three things. The first is that you saved my eldest daughter and let her grow up safely." Old Master Chu said sadly, holding up his wine glass. "The second is that you let my second son marry my eldest daughter and have children. The third is that you are willing to take care of the children after my eldest daughter left. I toast you a glass."

"Uncle Chu, I'm so sorry! I... didn't take good care of sister Chu Ying. I was also sad when the second brother passed away, so I didn't pay attention to Yingzi. I didn't expect... Hey! I treated Yingzi as my own sister. I won't say more, it will only bring tears. Uncle, I respect you!"

The two glasses of wine represent a remembrance of the past thirty years, as well as a release from past sorrows. The dead are gone, but people must always move forward.
