"Grandpa, Grandpa, Uncle wrote a letter! He's coming back!"
Bai Yajing excitedly held the letter as she went home.
Her joy was infectious, especially for the old man, whose eyes welled up with tears.
"Good lad! No wonder you're Old Xu and his wife's son! Well done!"
Ever since he adopted the child, he has kept him by his side, even taking him with him when he goes abroad to do business.
This was the first time the father and son had been separated for several years, and it would be a lie to say they didn't miss each other.
"Grandpa, that's your son too! A son who's even closer than your own son!"
"Actually, I had a feeling when I saw the newspaper last year that the country had developed a missile destroyer."
At that time, it was not certain whether it was the project that my uncle was researching.
But after receiving the letter today, I'm certain it's the result of my uncle's research! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to come back.”
Although she admired Dean Xu and his wife, her uncle was indeed raised and nurtured by her grandfather.
The father and son had a better relationship than even biological parents.
Grandpa Bai knew she was standing up for him, so he affectionately ruffled her hair.
"Hehehe, your uncle is very filial. My dear, what did the letter say?"
Bai Yajing slightly raised the corners of her mouth, opened the letter, and read it to them word by word.
"Zhan Xin'an... Is everything alright at home?... The research was successful, and I'll be able to come home this year..."
After the letter was read, everyone had a smile on their face.
"Great, great! We should be able to have a family reunion this year! Hehehe..."
Bai Yajing was also happy.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is it? Coming!"
Grandpa happened to be sitting in the courtyard, so he got up to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, Aunt Li was seen standing at the door with a bitter face.
Bai Yajing followed along.
"Aunt Li? Come in quickly!" It was obvious that something had happened.
Aunt Li quickly followed her inside.
When the grandparents saw this, they knew that Bai Yajing had something urgent to discuss, and it was almost time for dinner.
Grandma took Grandpa to the kitchen. Grandpa went to the vegetable garden to pick vegetables.
The two little buns went to the Xiao family's house, and now only a few of them are at home.
Bai Yajing led Aunt Li into the living room and poured her a glass of water.
"Aunt Li, have a glass of water."
"Thank you." Aunt Li quickly got up and took it.
She took a sip of water, her expression somewhat conflicted.
Bai Yajing coughed lightly. "Aunt Li, did you need something from me? What's our relationship? Just tell me what you need, maybe I can help!"
Her wife's diplomacy was mostly handled by Aunt Li, who now has a very good network of connections in Kyoto.
Aunt Li sighed and placed the cup on the table.
