Chapter 2442: Chapter 2442: Agreed (Part 2)
When Guan Tongshi and her daughter arrived, the Yang Family was having dinner.
"Let them go to the living room." Yang Ruxin casually instructed, then continued eating slowly until she was full before heading to the living room.
"Xinxin!" Guan Tongshi was not fond of Yang Ruxin, but for her son’s sake, she forced a smile.
Guan Qingyue also stood up, but perhaps because she felt guilty, she didn’t dare to look up.
"Aunt Guan, it’s quite late for you to come over. Is there something you need?" Yang Ruxin asked with a gentle tone.
"Here’s the thing." Guan Tongshi quickly placed the eggs on the tea table, "I heard you’re pregnant, so here’s a small token of our care. Please don’t take offense."
Yang Ruxin chuckled, "Aunt, I prefer to be straightforward. We may not be enemies, but you’ve never liked me, and I don’t care for you much either, so let’s skip the pretense. What do you need?"
Guan Tongshi was slightly choked up and her expression turned a bit unpleasant.
"Yang Ruxin, why are you being so harsh?" Guan Qingyue couldn’t help but speak up, "We’re all neighbors, you..."
"Shut up!" Guan Tongshi suddenly shouted, "If you can’t behave, get back home."
Guan Qingyue pouted but didn’t sit down, "I’ll wait for you in the courtyard then." She stuck her tongue out at Yang Ruxin and ran outside.
"Xinxin, that girl has been spoiled by me." Guan Tongshi sheepishly smiled.
Yang Ruxin smiled without commenting.
"You’re right, bringing up past grudges now would be melodramatic." Guan Tongshi decided not to hide anymore, "I’m here today to ask a favor. You know, Qingshu is going to Beijing, but he’s alone without anyone to care for him, so..." She sighed, "I know you have a transport team going to Beijing, could you take him along? We’ll cover the expenses for food and lodging."
"If he’s not in a hurry, we’ll have a team heading to Beijing at the beginning of March." Yang Ruxin didn’t hesitate and nodded, "As you know, Xiaoxiang is getting married, so we’ll depart on the first of March. If Guan Jieyuan wants to join, he can come that day, and I’ll make sure they leave space for him."
"You’re... you’re agreeing?" Guan Tongshi was stunned.
"Why wouldn’t I agree?" Yang Ruxin smiled, "It’s just a small favor."
"Thank, thank you!" Guan Tongshi was rather flustered.
"You can take the eggs back; we don’t need them." Yang Ruxin stood up, indicating it was time for her to leave.
"It’s only right to give eggs as a courtesy since you’re pregnant and we’re neighbors." Guan Tongshi waved her hand, "I’ll head back then."
Guan Qingyue went into the courtyard, but nobody paid attention to her, so she wandered to the outer yard. The well was there, but before she got close, someone approached her, "What are you doing?"
"I... I’m just strolling around." Guan Qingyue glanced at the man standing there, pouting as she stepped back.
But she was really unwilling to give up; the well was right in front of her. If she just poured what’s in the bottle in, there would be no more Yang Ruxin.
Why isn’t he leaving?
"Uncle Hai." At this moment, Sini and a few others ran over, "Didn’t you say you’d make grasshoppers for us?"
"Alright." Wang Hai then followed the kids away.
Guan Qingyue was suddenly delighted; the heavens are helping me, she thought. She hurried to the well, but just as she pulled out the bottle, it felt like something stung her wrist, causing the bottle to fall to the ground and roll far away.
