Su He didn't explain, just let her talk, knowing that she was worried about her, which warmed her heart.

After Grandma Su finished speaking, and seeing that the rest of the family had gathered around, she handed the pastries and candies she had brought back to her younger sister Su Miao, who was looking at her expectantly, "Take these and share them. Don't eat too much candy; save it for later."

Before Su Miao could even take it, it was snatched away by the old lady next to her.

“What does a little child like her know? We can’t give it to her; Grandma will share it.”

He opened the pastry and broke it into a few pieces, giving a little to each family member. As for the candies, he gave one small piece to each person and put the rest away.

"We've just eaten, so just have a taste to whet your appetite. Save the rest for later. You don't earn money easily, so don't buy it next time you come back."

Su He was both amused and exasperated by her actions, but she didn't argue. "Okay, Grandma."

Although they didn't get many candies, the family was still very happy, especially the younger ones, who skipped and jumped away with their candies.

Only then did Grandma Su have the opportunity to ask her about what had happened during this time.

"How's work? Is no one giving you a hard time at work?"

Su He shook her head. "No, Grandma, don't worry, my colleagues are all doing well."

Grandma Su looked at her carefully and found that she wasn't lying, so she was relieved. She then asked her about what had happened during this time, and Su He told her some interesting things that had happened in the kitchen, which amused Grandma Su.

After talking for a while, Su He remembered that something seemed off about the village aunt when she came back today, so she asked, "Did something happen at home while I was away?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent; even the children were unaware that they had stopped talking.

Something was definitely wrong. Su He frowned and asked again, "Grandma, what's been going on at home lately?"

Grandma Su subconsciously said, "It's nothing, nothing happened. By the way, how long will you be filling in for people in Beijing? Are you leaving again this time?"

Su He frowned upon hearing this; it was clearly an attempt to change the subject.

So, something did happen at home after all?

Thinking of this, she looked at the others, but her family members subconsciously looked away when they saw her gaze.

Seeing this, Su He frowned even more, and then, as if remembering something, said casually, "When I came back tonight, I ran into Zhihe's brother-in-law in town."

Grandma Su was startled by these words. "What? You ran into that Wang Chengcai? He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

Seeing how nervous she was, Su He felt a pang of anxiety. "No, he blocked me and tried to touch me inappropriately, but I kicked him down and he didn't succeed!"

Grandma Su breathed a sigh of relief, but soon gritted her teeth and said, "That damned toad dared to come looking for you! Next time I see him, I'll beat him to death!"

Seeing this, Su He asked, "Did Grandma know this Wang Chengcai before?"

Otherwise, why would they show no surprise other than worry, as if they had experienced it all before?

Seeing her like this, Grandma Su knew there was no way to hide it anymore, so she sighed and told her what had happened during this period.

It turned out that not long after Su He went to the capital to fill in for someone else, the Wang family came to propose marriage. Of course, Old Madam Su disagreed. Who was Wang Chengcai? How could he be worthy of Su He? So she directly refused.
