Chapter 114 Dealing with the Opera Performers Invited Back Home
"Grandpa Yang, you're teasing Rou'er again. Rou'er is one in a million! Rou'er only wants to call you Grandpa forever!" A sweet female voice came out, and Du Ruoxia immediately thought the other person was quite good-looking.
She looked at Yang Zeyan, wanting to ask him something, but seeing his displeased expression, she immediately fell silent. This man was probably no ordinary person.
"Master, Comrade Zeyan is back!" Grandpa Li called out from behind them.
"Zeyan is back! Let him in quickly so I can see if he has contributed any arms or legs to the motherland!" A loud old woman's voice rang out again. Just from the voice, Du Ruoxia could tell that this person must have a very heroic personality.
Yang Zeyan pulled Du Ruoxia around the corner and appeared in front of everyone. Surprisingly, there were several people in front of them!
Wow, there are more people than Du Ruoxia imagined!
"Grandpa, Grandma, we're back!" Yang Zeyan said to the two elderly people sitting in the main seat, his expression changing from before.
Everyone was watching them, and they all looked shocked when they saw Du Ruoxia, whom she was holding hands with.
The old man's shrewd eyes swept over, scrutinizing Yang Zeyan and his intertwined hands, but his expression remained unchanged.
"We, you? You and this person?" The old lady looked at Du Ruoxia in confusion.
“Grandma, this is my wife, Du Ruoxia. Xiaxia, call her Grandma!” Yang Zeyan explained calmly.
Humor~
People at the scene gasped and stared wide-eyed at the two.
"What?! Wife?! Granddaughter-in-law?!"
The old lady immediately stood up. Ignoring everyone else present, she walked directly to Du Ruoxia.
"Old lady, slow down, let the brat explain slowly, what's the rush!" The old man reached out to pull the old woman away.
"What's there to explain? As long as she's my granddaughter-in-law, that's all that matters!" The old lady glared at the old man without any politeness.
The old man was silenced by the old woman's glare, while the others looked at them with varying expressions.
"Well, I've never heard of my nephew having a girlfriend before. Could this be just to appease the family's invited opera singers?" An awkward yet mellow voice rang out.
Du Ruoxia's attention was originally drawn to the old lady, but now she diverted her attention to the man. He had a crew cut and a square face, which was very much in line with the appearance of the current leader.
Du Ruoxia could tell that the man held a high-ranking official position. She was more concerned about the woman beside him, who was dressed exquisitely like a wealthy lady, yet still dignified and graceful.
"Opera performers?" The old lady stood up and had just walked up to Du Ruoxia when she immediately stopped and looked at Yang Zeyan and the other person with displeasure.
"You brat, you're getting more and more unruly, aren't you? Even your grandma is going to complain about you!" The old lady glared at Yang Zeyan and complained.
"Grandma, you don't believe what I'm saying, but why do you believe what other people say about Kongxu Laifeng? What, was I adopted?" Yang Zeyan's voice carried a hint of grievance, but it was also clear that he was tolerant of the old lady.
The old lady looked at Du Ruoxia suspiciously, "Are you really my brat's wife, or from the theater?"
Du Ruoxia suppressed her laughter, "Yes, Grandma, he handed in the marriage certificate."
Du Ruoxia remembered that after they got their marriage certificate, Yang Zeyan took it away from hers. When she asked him about it later, he said he had given it to his superior for safekeeping. At the time, she was very confused as to why her marriage certificate would be kept by his superior. Now it seems that it might have been for today.
After Du Ruoxia finished speaking, the old lady still waved her hand, "I don't believe it, I'll call and ask!"
The old man beside her pulled her back, saying, "Why are you hitting me? Do you think Xiao Song is your housekeeper?"
Everyone stared in disbelief at the old man's unusual behavior, while the middle-aged man who had spoken looked at the old woman with concern.
Sure enough, the situation changed drastically in less than three seconds.
The old lady grabbed the old man's ear and immediately shouted, "Yang Zhenting, are you trying to rebel? I'm going to call Xiao Song to ask what's going on, and you won't let me, are you hiding something?!"
Du Ruoxia's ears twitched involuntarily. This behavior was truly the style of a women's army!
Grandpa Li stepped forward anxiously to persuade her, "Grandma, please don't get agitated. Grandpa didn't mean that. He was saying that Shi Feng is busy because of the recent floods in Xilan City!"
Yang Zeyan watched calmly, showing no intention of making a sound. Du Ruoxia, unaware of the situation, stood properly.
The old lady still wouldn't give up, twisting the old man's ear harder, "He's got something to hide, he makes so many phone calls every day, and I haven't seen Wang Hu lately either, I wonder what kind of bad things he's been sent out to do!"
Du Ruoxia's eyes flickered subtly, and she said guiltily, "Um, Grandma, maybe I'm the one who did the bad thing."
As soon as Du Ruoxia spoke, the old lady's attention returned. She asked suspiciously, "You're the one who caused trouble? What trouble?"
Du Ruoxia awkwardly explained, "Wang Hu has been with me recently; we went to Xilan City together."
The old lady perked up after hearing this, "So he knew about your existence all along? He just wanted to keep it from me? Is that why you didn't dare let me contact Xiao Song?!"
It would have been better if Du Ruoxia hadn't explained; the more she spoke, the harder the old lady hit the old man. The old man, who had been tilting his head and hadn't changed his expression, now had a contorted face, and Du Ruoxia felt pain just looking at him.
She wanted to say something more, but couldn't find the right words. She also didn't know that Wang Hu wasn't hired by Yang Zeyan!
No one at the scene dared to plead for the old man, clearly indicating that this matter had become a matter of routine. Du Ruoxia looked to Yang Zeyan for help, and Yang Zeyan gave her a reassuring look.
"Old man, I've been giving you a break from drinking tea lately, haven't I? Now you dare to rebel!" The old lady grabbed the old man's ear and started to drag him upstairs.
"Grandma, that's enough." Yang Zeyan rarely spoke up.
The old lady stopped, turned around and looked at him and Du Ruoxia with a smile, "You two wait here for me, I'll be there in a bit!"
Yang Zeyan looked helpless, while Du Ruoxia was completely dumbfounded. This was the first time she had seen such a tough old lady. She was too strong!
After the two elderly people left, the square-faced man and the elegant woman beside him stood up.
Du Ruoxia then had time to look at the other people, who were not much older than her and looked somewhat familiar.
"Zeyan, did you bring this actress back just to appease the old lady? But you can't hurt my Rou'er's heart. You know she's always been devoted to you." The elegant woman spoke, her voice gentle yet tinged with slight reproach.
Du Ruoxia's alarm bells rang as she listened to the woman's words. So, who is the girl named Rou'er?
She looked at the others; three men were about the same age as Yang Zeyan, and there was a girl who kept her head down.
