Grandma Yu went to Grandma Li's house first. When Grandma Li saw her coming in with a big bag of things, she said with a hint of annoyance, "Why are you being so polite when you come to my house?"
"I'm not being polite to you. You didn't even look at what I have in my hand before you blame me. That's not good of you, and I have to say something to you," Grandma Yu said irritably.
"Then what are you holding in your hand?" As she got older, her eyesight wasn't very good, and when Grandma Li got closer, she noticed that Grandma Yu was holding candy.
"Is it candy? It's still a long way from the New Year..." Grandma Li suddenly paused, remembering what they had said at the dinner table last night.
She blinked, somewhat surprised, and asked, "It can't be what I'm thinking, can it?"
Grandma Yu found a chair and sat down, teasingly asking, "What do you think?"
Grandma Li still doesn't know what kind of person her best friend is.
She raised her hand and smacked her: "Alright, what are you pretending for? I already know."
"What do you know?" Grandma Yu asked with a smile when she saw that Grandma Li had already reached out her hand without any politeness.
Grandma Li: "Why are you talking so much nonsense to me? You don't want to go to someone else's house, do you? What else could it be? It's that Gu Zixiao got married to Lan Yao."
As Grandma Li finished speaking, she peeled off a piece of candy wrapper, put the candy inside into her mouth, and said it was orange-flavored, more sweet than sour, and it was a hard candy, which she found just okay.
However, they just got their marriage certificate today, so there's no need to buy extra candy. They might buy it on their wedding day.
"The young couple wanted to buy something nice, like White Rabbit candy, but I didn't allow it," Grandma Yu explained.
Grandma Li clicked her tongue lightly: "So you agree now? Didn't you vehemently oppose it before?"
Grandma Yu didn't explain why she agreed; she just told Grandma Li what had happened that day.
After Grandma Li finished speaking, she gave Grandma a thumbs up, "Lan's taste is truly impeccable. The man she found is top-notch."
Grandma Yu agreed with this point, saying, "That's right. Judging from his appearance, he'll definitely treat Lan'er well in the future."
Grandma Li: "Of course. Alright, you don't need to stay at my house anymore, I'll go with you to deliver the candy."
Next, Grandma Li and Grandma Yu, two elderly ladies, went together to deliver candy to several families with whom they had a good relationship.
When everyone heard that Gu Zixiao and Lan Yao got married, they sincerely offered their blessings.
Gu Zixiao and Lan Yao, those two young people, are always inseparable and have a very good relationship. It's definitely time for them to get married.
The reason the two hadn't registered their marriage before was because Grandma Yu felt that Lan Yao was still young and there was no rush.
Besides this, she also wanted to test Gu Zixiao to see if he could wait patiently.
Of course, besides this point, there are other points we want to test.
So far, it seems that Gu Zixiao has passed Grandma Yu's test.
If the other party wasn't qualified, Grandma Yu wouldn't allow the young couple to get married.
Someone who was on good terms with Grandma Yu said, "Old Yu, it was a worthwhile decision to recognize this granddaughter of yours."
Is it not worth it?
To be honest, Lan Yao is truly devoted to her grandmother.
Of course, Grandma Yu had nothing to say to Lan Yao, since she treated her with sincerity.
When Grandma Yu heard this, she frowned and looked displeased. "My Lanyao is also very good to me."
Many people laughed good-naturedly upon hearing this.
"Nobody said she was mean to you."
"you do not say."
"Just by looking at your clothes and your rosy complexion, I can tell you're doing very well."
"That's right. Lao Yu, you're in high spirits because of a happy occasion. You look much younger than before."
"I noticed it too. I think Lao Yu's gray hair seems to have less than before."
"Yes, yes, yes. Now that you mention it, it does seem to be true."
"Old Yu and Old Li are good friends. I think Old Li's gray hair seems to have decreased quite a bit."
"Hey Lao Yu, Lao Li, are you two hiding some kind of secret recipe?"
Grandma Yu rolled her eyes: "What secret recipe could I possibly be hiding? You all have such sharp eyes, if I really did hide something, wouldn't you all be able to tell?"
Grandma Yu wasn't afraid at all; what she said was the truth.
Everyone was just joking around; the reality was just as Grandma Yu said—these days, it's really difficult for anyone to hide anything.
Grandma Li rolled her eyes at them and then took Grandma Yu home.
When Grandma Yu and Grandma Li returned, Gu Zixiao had already cleaned out the several pieces of pork intestines they had bought.
He was expressionless, and although his technique wasn't very skillful, it was slow yet fast.
Lan Yao watched from the sidelines, occasionally snacking on small treats; they seemed to be having a great time.
After Gu Zixiao finished cleaning up, Lan Yao quickly stood up and fed him some diluted spiritual spring water.
Even diluted, the spring water in the teacup is sweet and delicious; drinking it makes you feel as if you've been elevated.
Lan Yao gently touched Gu Zixiao's cheek with the back of her hand. "My darling is amazing! I didn't expect you to be so good at it, processing the intestines so quickly. I was thinking of doing it myself."
Sure enough, my darling really dotes on me; I'm nowhere near as capable as her.
Gu Zixiao gradually lost himself amidst Lan Yao's constant praise.
Gu Zixiao said smugly, "You really can't live without me. So you can't mention divorce again, understand?"
Gu Zixiao is a bit petty, so he brought up the old issue again.
Lan Yao smiled and said, "Yes, yes, I know, I know. I swear I'll never mention it again."
How could I dare to mention it? My darling is so capable. If I were to leave you, where would I find someone even more capable than my beloved?
I doubt you could find them anywhere on Earth. So, someone like me who can't handle hardship and toil naturally can't leave my beloved family.
So, darling, don't worry. You should be completely at ease.
Gu Zixiao's last bit of dissatisfaction vanished completely.
His lips were curled up so high that even AK couldn't suppress them.
Grandma Yu and Grandma Li stood not far away, watching the young couple. Hmm... how to put it? Were they lovey-dovey? Or was it a case of one willing to give and the other willing to receive? Or perhaps one was scheming, and the other was willing to endure the scheming?
They're a match made in heaven, and there's no way to change that.
Grandma Yu smiled at Grandma Li and whispered to her, "I'd better go to your house for a while first."
Grandma Li was very understanding and pulled Grandma Yu towards the door, saying, "Okay, let's go. We can't keep the newlyweds waiting."
