Chapter 1174: Chapter 1174: The Love I Didn’t Receive in My Past Life, I’ve Received Twice as Much in This One
Shen Guqing wasn’t polite with Xinyan; as soon as she heard the afternoon surgery was canceled, she quickly took leave to pack up and leave. Now, she was indeed a bit thirsty: "Little junior sister, you understand me well, I’m really thirsty."
Xinyan blinked and looked at Zhang Yueshan: "Uncle Shanzi, I have some things to take care of here. Could you please entertain my senior sister for me?"
Zhang Yueshan couldn’t hide the smile in his eyes: "Sure, you go ahead, I’ll take care of things here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Guqing was already heading towards the side chamber.
He turned around ready to catch up, thinking she was really thirsty.
Just as he looked up, he saw Mr. Du standing under the eaves, smiling at him, as if someone had seen through his thoughts, making his face suddenly warm up.
Shen Guqing had already walked up to Mr. Du: "Master, you’re finally willing to come back?"
Mr. Du smiled at her, but this smile made her feel a bit uneasy: "Master, you’d better stop smiling, it gives me the creeps."
As he wasn’t sure about it, he didn’t want to ask directly, so he restrained his smile and looked at the man approaching from behind his disciple, giving a light cough: "You two carry on, I’ll go have a chat with Mr. Gu."
Xinyan accompanied her grandmother to the kitchen for a round, and seeing that everything was almost ready, she returned to the front yard.
Seeing that everyone who should have come, was there, and those who hadn’t, probably couldn’t make it, there was no point in waiting any longer.
Everyone moved to the dining room in the back courtyard, where there were four tables, enough for everyone to sit without having to go into the small hall.
This was what Xinyan’s grandfather had specially gone out to buy during her days abroad, so everyone could fit when the family gathered.
They had lived too coldly abroad over the years, and just liked everyone sitting together in a lively atmosphere.
They chatted as they ate, some talked about work, others shared interesting things that had happened around them, and the atmosphere was indeed quite harmonious.
After drinking for a while, Mr. Gu brought up Xinyan’s wedding in a few days, assigning tasks to everyone to ensure they all fulfilled their roles on that day.
Once the tasks were arranged, he looked up at He Jinxuan: "Jinxuan, when is your family arriving?"
He Jinxuan smiled at the old man: "They will arrive two days before the wedding; the tickets are already purchased."
Thinking of something, he added: "My parents originally intended to come over in a few days to see if they could help with anything, but I told them everything here is already prepared, so there’s no need to buy such early tickets. This way, they can come with the rest of the family, which puts me more at ease."
Everyone understood He Jinxuan’s words, acknowledging that he didn’t have much emotional connection with his family. It’s better to have something to do together, as the elders might feel awkward if there was nothing to do.
Moreover, what He Jinxuan said was true. If the two elders were to travel alone, he would indeed worry. It’s better for them to travel with other family members.
At this time, Gu Wanqing spoke: "Yanyan, tomorrow go over to the wedding house and see if there’s anything you’re not satisfied with. It’ll be good to make any changes in these few days.
After that, just stay at home and organize your dowry."
The implication was clear: she shouldn’t wander around before the wedding, nor meet with He Jinxuan.
Xinyan smiled and replied: "I got it."
Then Han Jingchen spoke: "Yanyan, remember you’re getting married from the Han Family’s old house, Jinxuan, make sure you remember that."
That’s when Aunt Su Aihong joked; "Don’t worry, he’s more eager than anyone to bring the beauty home, he definitely won’t make a mistake."
Then Uncle Han Jingheng added: "I’ve already had the old house cleaned up, Yanyan, don’t worry, you can stay there without any concerns."
At this time, the pregnant Chu Zhenhua said: "Then I won’t return to the family compound these days, I’ll accompany Yanyan and stay at the old house."
Gu Wanqing laughed and responded: "That’s excellent."
Then Su Aihong chimed in: "I’ve recently hired a temporary helper, so you can comfortably stay at the old house. If you need anything, just let her know."
Xinyan didn’t expect her aunt to be so thoughtful: "Auntie, thank you."
Su Aihong pretended to be angry and said: "Thank you for what? I’ve always treated you as if you were my own daughter, doing these things is only right."
For a moment, Xinyan felt a pang in her nose, with the love she didn’t receive in her previous life now being given twice as much; she must cherish it well.
