Chapter 16: Barely worthy



Du Wanying looked towards the door and saw a boy about eighteen or nineteen years old walking in with a lunch box. The boy had two big dark circles under his eyes and looked very haggard.

But he didn't look in a good mood. He walked to Grandma Xu's bedside with an air of wanting to take credit, "Grandma, I brought you some sweet and sour fish. I spent three days studying day and night to learn how to make it!"

Under normal circumstances, Grandma Xu would definitely praise her grandson! But today! Now! Not only did she not want to praise Xu Wenhan, but she wanted to scold him!

Grandma Xu didn't even look at Xu Wenhan, for fear of being pissed off! She was just trying to match Du Wanying with this brat.

"Sister Du, please continue talking and ignore this brat."

"No, that's not important! You're such a filial grandson. Look at those two big dark circles under your eyes. You can tell you've worked hard to learn. Lao Xu, why don't you try it?"

Grandma Du was so happy that she wanted her granddaughter to pay for Lao Xu's three meals a day. Of course, she still had to pay for it! But now it seems that it is not necessary.

Grandma Du's words made Grandma Xu even angrier. She wanted to beat up Xu Wenhan, the bad boy! But she was powerless. She was old and didn't have the physical strength anymore!

Grandma Xu glared at Xu Wenhan fiercely, then looked at Grandma Du and said, "Sister Du, although you didn't finish what you said just now, I think I understood. Are you going to let Yingying pay for my three meals a day? Don't worry about the money. I will definitely not let Yingying's hard work be in vain."

Grandma Du got furious when she heard what Lao Xu said. She thought that Lao Xu had no one to take care of her and no one to bring her food. Plus, she had just said such hurtful words, so she wanted to compensate Lao Xu!

Grandma Du hadn't seen anyone come to accompany her these past two days, and no one had brought Lao Xu food! Now that someone was bringing Lao Xu food and caring about her, Grandma Du didn't want to burden her granddaughter.

"You're talking nonsense! When did I say that? How can you prove it? Besides, your grandson is so filial. He spent several days learning how to make sweet and sour fish for you! Why do you need my granddaughter to cook for you?"

When Old Xu heard what Old Du said, she became anxious. She was afraid that she would not be able to eat the meal cooked by others after eating one meal cooked by Du Wanying.

"Sister Du, you can't cheat! You were about to tell me what you were saying just now. If that brat hadn't interrupted you, then Yingying would have cooked for me!"

"How am I being lazy? Who can prove that what you said is true?"

“I…I…”

Lao Xu was speechless. There were only her and Lao Du in this ward. All the people in the room just now were members of the Du family. Who could prove it for her?

Grandma Xu became angry when she saw Xu Wenhan standing next to her, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got!

"Hmph, go back and don't bother me in the hospital anymore!"

At this moment, Grandma Xu was like a child throwing a tantrum. No wonder people call her an old child.

Xu Wenhan has been a little confused since he entered the ward. In the past, his grandmother would be so happy to see him, not to mention that he specially learned to make sweet and sour fish for his grandmother!

Now when Xu Wenhan heard that his grandmother asked him to leave and forbade him to visit her in the future, he was so anxious that he was like an ant in a hot pot!

The key point is that Xu Wenhan doesn't even know what he did wrong! Why does he feel that he is more wronged than Dou E?

"Grandma! My dad, uncle, and aunt are really busy! That's why they don't have time to come and see you, but they really care about you.

Now that you won't let me come to the hospital, who will take care of you in the future? "

Xu Wenhan complained aggrievedly, like a well-behaved puppy. If his father knew that grandma didn't let him come to the hospital, he would definitely not let him go when he got home! So even if he died, he wanted to know how he had offended grandma, right?

"Busy, busy, busy, all they do every day! They don't even care about me, an old woman. If I die one day, will they be too busy with work to send an old woman off? Tell me, what's the point of me supporting them?"

Grandma Xu was already very sad to see the loving mother and filial son of the Du family, and now her grandson is hurting her heart again! Only her three children are busy, so aren’t the Du family’s sons, sons, and grandchildren busy too?

Whose family isn't busy? Who has nothing to do every day? Didn't you see that the Du family didn't come to the hospital to visit Lao Du?

"Grandma, don't be angry. I'm here even though they're not here. I've even learned how to make sweet and sour fish. How about I take it out and give it to you to try?"

"snort!"

Grandma Xu thought her grandson was right! Besides, he even learned how to make sweet and sour fish just for her, so she couldn't be too proud.

When Xu Wenhan saw his grandmother's reaction, he quickly took out the sweet and sour fish. His mother said that when his grandmother gets old, she is like a child and needs to be coaxed. He always keeps this in mind!

"Grandma, please try it. If it's not good, I'll go back and study it again!"

Grandma Xu picked up a piece of sweet and sour fish with chopsticks. She had to say that Xu Wenhan’s cooking was quite delicious, but definitely not as delicious as Du Wanying’s!

However, her grandson studied for her for several days and nights and finally learned it with dark circles under his eyes. She couldn't help but appreciate his kindness.

Only after she finished a whole plate of sweet and sour fish did Grandma Xu pat her stomach and ask for water. Xu Wenhan quickly picked up a glass of water and handed it to Grandma Xu.

"That's right! You're more filial than your father and the others. Go back and tell your father that since he's busy, please come to the hospital to see me! From now on, you have to deliver my three meals a day to me! Also, tell your uncle that I don't need the food he brings, and ask him not to send it anymore."

"Okay, grandma, I've taken note of everything you said." Xu Wenhan gave a flattering smile. There was nothing he could do. His grandma was no different from a child, and he had to coax her.

"Sister Du, let me introduce this to you. This is my little grandson, my youngest son's son." Grandma Xu said, looking at Xu Wenhan and said, "Call someone!"

"Hello, Grandma Du."

"Oh, good, good." Grandma Du said, looking at Lao Xu, "Your grandson is good, very handsome."

"Right, he's my favorite of the Xu family. So, is my grandson just barely worthy of your Yingying?"

Apparently, Grandma Xu hadn't given up on her previous idea and continued to introduce it enthusiastically.

Xu Wenhan, standing by, was shocked when he heard his grandmother say, "He's barely a good match for Yingying? Barely? Is he really that bad?"

As soon as Xu Wenhan entered the ward, his eyes were fixed on his grandmother, and he really didn't look at other people in the ward.

He turned his head to look at Grandma Du, and saw a middle-aged man sitting behind Grandma Du's bed. This should be Grandma Du's son.

There was also a boy about his age sitting next to a girl. When Xu Wenhan saw Du Wanying, his eyes widened in surprise!

I didn't expect there was such a beautiful girl in Huairen County? She's so beautiful! It's not an exaggeration to say she's a fairy. He really is barely worthy of her!
