She Lives without Regret in This Life

Chapter 1786: Chapter 1863: Calling for Reinforcements

When she was young, she hoped for a daughter, but in the end, she gave birth to another rascal. And this rascal is even more troublesome than his father. Now, finally, there’s a well-behaved granddaughter, who melts her heart.

"Grandma..." The little boy squatted on the ground playing with a toy car, and when he saw grandma looking at him, he lifted his head with a cheeky smile. His fair face and big, bright eyes were absolutely adorable.

"Good grandson!" Zhao Lanzi smiled sweeter than honey. She was wrong; she loves both her granddaughter and grandson.

Oh! Such a charming and lovable grandson, it’s hard for her not to like him.

"Then let’s get ready!" Shen Luhua was also thinking of An’an, wondering how that girl was doing. She indeed should go back to check on her. "I’ll go back, and call Lao San and Xianxiong together, see if the crops in the field are tended to enough to leave."

Until now, Xu Xianxiong has not returned home, and has been living with Mr. Sheng as pushed by Zhao Lanzi!

As they were talking, the phone inside the room rang. Ever since the phone was installed, only Ningning calls on it. Hearing the sound, Shen Luhua stayed to watch the children while Zhao Lanzi eagerly went to answer the call.

"Ningning?"

After three seconds of silence, Xu Qigang’s deep voice came through, "Mom, it’s me."

"..." Zhao Lanzi was stunned for a long while before she reacted, "You rascal, finally calling the house? Do you know how long it’s been since you’ve called? You haven’t even written a letter, you’re too careless."

No, he’s overly carefree, carefree to the point she worries.

Ningning is still more thoughtful.

"Sorry mom, the rescue team has been busy."

"Hmph! I knew it, you’re always busy, not coming home for the New Year was one thing, but you don’t even call." Zhao Lanzi was still a bit discontented.

Her son went away when he was a teenager, and for years, hasn’t spent New Year at home. Even his wedding was interrupted after three days. She feels like raising him was for nothing.

Although she often complains about her son, saying she isn’t worried at heart is a lie.

"Let me tell you Qigang, it’s fine if you’re busy, but you should take good care of Ningning. She’s much younger than you and has to manage two kids. As a husband, you should be more considerate. Even though the rescue team is important, family is important too! Do you want to be single forever?"

"Mom." The tough and cool man’s voice had a hint of grievance.

Zhao Lanzi’s brows furrowed, "What’s wrong?"

"Mom, you’re right, I might really be single forever."

"Ah? Don’t scare me, what’s going on? Did you argue with Ningning?"

"Yes!" Xu Qigang’s voice was filled with guilt, "It’s my fault, I upset Ningning, she hasn’t talked to me for a long time."

"Did you apologize?"

"I did, but it didn’t work."

"True enough." Zhao Lanzi agreed, "If apologies worked, why would we need laws?"

"..." Is this really his mother?

"Have you decided on the little guy’s full name?" Xu Qigang pulled himself together, deciding not to show his vulnerability to others.

"Not yet! I still think you’re better at it, given your dad’s personality, I’m afraid the little guy would be frustrated when he grows up." She’s not hopeful about Xu Xianxiong’s literacy level.
