Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space

Chapter 1117: Chapter 1117: Have You Set a Date for the Wedding?

Xinyan brought them back to the small courtyard.

Granny Zhang was picking vegetables and saw her come in: "Why are you back early today?"

Just as she finished speaking, she saw the people following in behind: "Who are these?"

Xinyan smiled and said, "This is Jinxuan’s sister’s family."

Pointing at the people, she introduced: "This is Jinxuan’s fourth sister, He Yanqing, and that is her brother-in-law, Nie Ziqiang."

He Jinxuan had confirmed this before and had told Xinyan, seeing that their family returned to Beijing, she knew they had been recognized back by the Nie Family.

He Yanqing pulled her two children over: "This is my son, Nie Daming, and my daughter, Nie Xiaoyu."

Xinyan looked at the two children she introduced: "This is Granny Zhang."

He Yanqing knew a bit about Xinyan’s situation, and she had also heard about this Granny Zhang, knowing that she had supported her third sister-in-law through high school.

Warmly stepping forward, she called: "Granny Zhang, sorry for disturbing you today."

Granny Zhang smiled and let them into the house: "You’re not disturbing at all, the more the merrier."

He Yanqing recounted what had happened: "We’ve just settled in the past few days. Since Ziqiang has a day off today, we wanted to come see you, but my third brother wasn’t at work, so we came straight over."

Their family stayed for lunch at Xinyan’s before leaving.

Xinyan accompanied them to the bus stop outside: "Now you know the place, if anything happens and your third brother isn’t around, you can come find me."

He Yanqing felt a warmth in her heart hearing this: "Okay, I understand."

Watching their family leave, Xinyan thought of Ye Liyan and his two kids. Since the research project over there wasn’t finished yet, they were likely to be delayed in coming back.

Having not seen them for such a long time, she really missed those two little guys.

After checking her watch, she quickly walked towards the phone booth and dialed a number: "Hello, could you please find Ye Liyan for me?"

"May I ask who’s calling?"

Xinyan originally wanted to say a friend, but fearing misunderstanding, said: "I’m his cousin-in-law."

Hearing it was his cousin-in-law, the other side’s tone softened considerably: "Just a moment."

She heard footsteps leaving, and shortly, someone returned.

Liyan’s voice came through the receiver: "Hello, is that Xinyan?"

Xinyan chuckled softly: "You’re quite smart."

Liyan said: "You’re the only cousin-in-law I have, so I guessed it was you."

Xinyan didn’t chatter on: "How are those two little guys doing over there?"

Liyan asked upon hearing about the kids: "They’re nearly going wild here, met a lot of new friends."

Xinyan wasn’t surprised: "So when are you coming back to Beijing?"

Liyan didn’t answer directly, instead asking: "Have you set a date for your wedding?"

Xinyan hadn’t expected him to say that: "No, why do you ask?"

Liyan laughed: "A few days ago, your husband called me, and I just happened to ask."

He added: "Rest assured, if you set a wedding date, even if I have to take leave, I’ll come back to attend."

Xinyan joked: "With you saying that, should I feel touched?"

Liyan laughed: "It should still be some time over here, but it won’t be too long, the two little guys will definitely be back in Beijing for the next term."

Having gotten the information she wanted, there wasn’t more to discuss, so they exchanged a few rushed words and hung up.

Back at school, just downstairs from the dormitory, she ran into Jiang Peiqin and the others.

Jiang Peiqin said: "We saw you from upstairs, timed it, and came down to save you the trip up."

Xinyan turned her head to her: "Go ahead, what’s your intention with this nice treatment today?"

Jiang Peiqin hadn’t expected Xinyan to guess right away and blinked as she leaned into Xinyan’s ear: "Our wedding is set for the sixth of next month, which is a weekend."

Xinyan’s eyes lit up, about to speak, but Jiang Peiqin stopped her, whispering: "I haven’t told anyone else yet."

Xinyan teased: "This is a big happy event, the date is set, surely it’s okay to share it."

Jiang Peiqin, a bit embarrassed, said: "I originally wanted to set it during summer break, but Ling Wenhao insisted on scheduling it for next month."

Xinyan laughed: "Ling Wenhao is still spooked from last time and just wants to hurry up and marry you."

Seeing Jiang Peiqin’s embarrassed face, Xinyan stopped teasing: "So, what do you need me to do?"

Jiang Peiqin leaned in again: "Be with me that day, okay?"

Xinyan took her books from Jiang Peiqin’s embrace: "No problem, a good sister getting married, of course, I’ll be there with you."

As they were talking, Gu Yingying’s voice came from behind them: "Yingying, are you really inviting us to the dance?"
