Chapter 251 Who gave you this illusion?

Because Cen Yan brought back too many things, it was tiring to carry them around, so she simply told Qi Jingchuan that she would go to her maternal grandparents' house, the home of Zhao Gongqin and Su Xianhua, to give them the things she brought back first, and also to have a meal with them.

Knowing that Cen Yan had brought something for the two elders, Qi Jingchuan's smile lingered on his face for about two minutes.

Isn't this also a case of loving someone because of their loved ones?

If it weren't for him, out of respect for him, why would Cen Yan bring gifts to her maternal grandparents? In the end, it's because his wife still cares about him.

He was willing to treat his relatives as his own.

Cen Yan had no idea what the man was thinking. She was just glad that she had been careful and packed everything into her suitcase before disembarking. Otherwise, when Qi Jingchuan came to pick her up, she would have been empty-handed, and the next day she would have had to give him and his gifts.

Qi Jingchuan is like a fox; it's too difficult to fool his eyes.

At this time, Zhao Gongqin and Su Xianhua were both at home. They had just returned from inspecting the machinery factory on Dongming Island. Seeing Cen Yan and Qi Jingchuan carrying large and small bags of things, they hurriedly ran over to help.

"Oh dear, why didn't you two tell me you were coming? What are all these things? So many bags and so heavy." Su Xianhua stepped forward to lend a hand, but considering her physical condition, Cen Yan didn't let the old woman take them, and instead naturally handed them to Qi Jingchuan.

Qi Jingchuan was already carrying a lot of things in both hands, and now that his wife was handing him the bag, he had no choice but to bite it, like a loyal dog, expressionlessly holding the bag and standing obediently as a background figure, ignoring Zhao Gongqin's winks and glares.

Cen Yan took Su Xianhua's arm and walked inside. "I went to Lancheng to take the junior TCM doctor qualification exam these past few days. I stopped by the department store and bought you and Grandpa a couple of outfits. I was wondering if you had brought any winter clothes since it's so cold on Dongming Island."

“We two old folks are too old to buy new clothes. You’re young, though, so buy a few more outfits and dress up nicely. How much is it? Grandma will come inside and get it for you.” Su Xianhua really liked Cen Yan; she had saved her life and was so filial.

Cen Yan smiled and said, "Buying things for my elders is a way of showing my filial piety. If you want to talk to me about money, then I won't buy you anything anymore."

"You silly child..." Su Xianhua was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She took the clothes out of her bag and held them up against herself.

Zhao Gongqin laughed along, "You old woman, it's so cold, why are you gesturing like this? Let the child come inside first. I'll go find two honeycomb briquettes, we're having hot pot tonight. We'll have seafood hot pot, Yan'er's favorite!"

Seafood is cheap on Dongming Island and not exactly rare. But at this time of year, it's quite difficult to go out and buy seafood. Fortunately, Leng Feng sent over a few crabs a couple of days ago, saying he wanted to cook porridge for the two old folks. They didn't want to eat them all at once and kept a few. They won't die so quickly in this weather.

Chop up some crab, stir-fry it, add some cooked rehmannia root to make a soup base, then pick some greens from the garden in the yard, slice some meat, and it's ready to eat.

With the weather so cold, hot pot is the perfect choice.

Once inside, Zhao Gongqin went to cook.

Upon seeing this, Cen Yan quickly said, "Grandpa, please go inside and try on the clothes to see if they fit. Let Qi Jingchuan cook dinner. Qi Jingchuan, are you sure you can handle it?"

The man narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, and said, word by word, "Who gave you the misconception that I'm incapable?"
