Chapter 304 Door-to-Door Visit
And the dissatisfaction that Shao's father mentioned must also be felt by Old Master Shao.
However, this displeasure stemmed from his own son.
But even though I was unhappy, I couldn't say it out loud.
After all, her son hadn't done anything wrong, so she could only put up with it.
"..." After hearing what Old Master Shao said, Mr. Shao was even more confused.
The old man said he was happy, but why doesn't he believe it?
Someone with a gloomy face, looking at you with obvious displeasure, says they're happy?
"Do you have something else to say? If not, don't stand there blocking my light!" Old Master Shao waved his hand dismissively as he looked at his son standing there dumbfounded.
When Mr. Shao heard his father say that, he was both amused and exasperated.
But this is his own father. Even if he is disliked, what can he do?
He had no choice but to obediently stand up and prepare to go back inside.
Just then, someone knocked on the courtyard gate.
Before the housekeeper could open the door, Old Master Shao hurriedly walked towards the courtyard gate, leaning on his cane.
"Oh dear! Dad! Slow down, let me do it, let me open the door..."
Mr. Shao dared not trouble his father to open the door, and immediately tried to open it himself.
"Go back inside and stop getting in the way!" How could Old Master Shao possibly let him open the door?
What if Yi Rou sees that it is this unfilial son who opens the door and leaves?
Mr. Shao was dumbfounded. What on earth was going on?
They wouldn't even let him open the door.
Grandpa Shao opened the door first.
Then they saw Su Xiangwan and Gu Yanfei standing outside the door: "Grandpa Shao!"
"Sigh!" His expression darkened, and his forlorn eyes swept around. When he saw Xu Yirou standing behind Su Xiangwan and the others, his eyes immediately lit up with surprise.
“Grandpa.” Xu Yirou saw the changes in Grandpa Shao’s expression and felt her heart’s softest spot touched.
It turns out that the love that truly and wholeheartedly cherishes one's family cannot be hidden.
"Yi Rou...Quick! Xiang Wan, Yan Fei, come in quickly!"
Grandpa Shao quickly stepped aside, gesturing for the group to enter.
Like a child who had made a mistake, Shao's father stood in the corner, watching his old man warmly and attentively welcome the three little girls into the house.
After gesturing for them to sit down, he pushed the prepared fruit slices and pastries in front of them.
"Come on, have a taste. I had someone buy these early this morning, they're all very fresh! Try them and see if there's anything you like."
Su Xiangwan, Gu Yanfei, and Xu Yirou all thanked her.
"Grandpa Shao, are you feeling better?" Su Xiangwan noticed that Xu Yirou seemed a little distracted because of Shao's father's presence, so she decided to start the conversation herself.
"Much better! Much better!"
Grandpa Shao's face was full of happy smiles, and then he said meaningfully, "You young people should come and visit this old man more often, and I will have no worries at all."
Hearing him say that, Xu Yirou smiled and said, "Grandpa Shao, don't worry. From now on, we'll come to see you every weekend if we have nothing else to do."
Grandpa Shao?
That's not right!
Why is Yi Rou calling him Grandpa Shao again?
As Old Master Shao was thinking, he glanced over and saw his son standing to the side.
He was immediately furious.
"What are you still standing there for? Go do what you're supposed to be doing. What are you doing in the way?"
No wonder his granddaughter doesn't call him grandpa anymore.
It's all because of this good-for-nothing son.
Just then, Shao's mother came downstairs.
Upon seeing this, Su Xiangwan and the other two stood up in unison and greeted Shao's mother, "Auntie."
When Shao's mother saw Su Xiangwan and the other two, she was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Oh! It's Xiangwan, Yan Fei is here! And... daughter, if I remember correctly, your name is Yi Rou, right? May I call you that?"
Shao's mother also had a very deep impression of Xu Yirou.
After all, she was the object of Wu Yong'an's affections, the son-in-law she had chosen.
Originally, Shao's mother was quite disappointed that Wu Yong'an had not taken a liking to Shao Ziyu.
But after seeing Xu Yirou, she suddenly felt relieved.
It has to be said that, in every aspect, Xu Yirou is much better than Shao Ziyu.
Wu Yong'an's choice to date Xu Yirou was a wise one.
Xu Yirou was surprised that Shao's mother would take the initiative to talk to her about these things. She was especially taken aback when she heard her mother call her "daughter". She then quickly bowed to Shao's mother and said, "Auntie, if you remember correctly, just call me Yirou."
Heaven knows, although she knew that her mother's use of the term "daughter" was meant to show affection, it almost made her lose herself in that one word.
"Please sit down. Come here and feel at home. There's no need to be shy."
Looking at her three beautiful, well-behaved, and clever little girls, Mrs. Shao sighed helplessly.
Looking at the three people in front of me, I couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
If any one of these three were my own daughter, how wonderful that would be!
If her own daughter were this beautiful and outstanding, she would be overjoyed.
After Shao's mother sat down on the sofa, Su Xiangwan and the other two sat down as well.
Grandpa Shao watched his daughter-in-law talking to Xu Yirou.
He was well aware of his daughter-in-law's character.
The Shao family doesn't have any arrogant or domineering people.
They had initially thought Shao Ziyu was an exception, but now it seemed that he was not an exception at all; he was clearly not a member of the Shao family.
Originally, Grandpa Shao was planning to send his son away.
But now, seeing her daughter-in-law sit down as well, Xu Yirou tried her best to hide the emotions in her eyes.
Grandpa Shao changed his mind and gestured for his son to come and sit down.
Mr. Shao, who was originally planning to leave, was stunned when he heard his grandfather's words.
What does this mean?
Weren't you just in a hurry to get rid of me?
Why are you making me sit down again?
However, since the old man had said so, he naturally wouldn't refute it, and instead sat down as instructed.
For some reason, after seeing Xu Yirou, he inexplicably wanted to spend more time with this well-behaved and likable girl.
Under Old Master Shao's deliberate lead, the group gradually opened up and started chatting, moving away from the initial awkwardness and politeness.
Furthermore, under Su Xiangwan's deliberate guidance, the topic was repeatedly shifted to Xu Yirou, giving her multiple opportunities to interact with Shao's father and mother.
This increased mutual understanding between the two parties.
It was at this time that Shao's father and mother discovered that they and Xu Yirou actually had many similar hobbies.
They even share remarkably similar views on many issues.
