Zhuang Zhimeng walked forward with her lover.
"Grandpa, Grandma, this is your grandson-in-law."
"So, isn't he a handsome young man?"
An Qingbai also greeted his maternal grandparents.
"Grandpa and Grandma, it's great to finally meet you both."
Hao Chengtiao burst into laughter.
"Haha, our Yaya has great taste."
Xiao Bai and our Ya Ya are a perfect match!
"Hehe, that's a must. If he weren't good-looking, I wouldn't be interested in him."
An Qingbai just looked at his wife and smiled indulgently.
Bai Junya smiled and took her granddaughter's hand.
"We all know that you have good taste, Yaya."
"Hurry inside, the children are tired."
Zhuang Zhimeng called to the children.
"Come over here and greet them. This is Great-Grandpa, and this is Great-Grandma."
The children all said in unison.
"Great-grandfather, great-grandmother."
"Hey, hello everyone, come inside and let's get to know each other properly."
Bai Junya ushered everyone into the villa.
Fearing that everyone would feel uncomfortable, Du Yunshi took the initiative to explain.
"Don't worry, my grandfather doesn't live here. It's just us living in this house."
Hao Caiyun was clearly relieved.
"I was just thinking about what to call Yunshi's grandfather if we meet him."
"It's okay, sister. My grandfather usually doesn't come over."
Large families have troubles in every aspect; even a visit here means being watched closely.
"What if it's a holiday? Will you go and keep them company?"
“Sometimes we would only go when my grandfather sent someone to call us.”
"That's quite troublesome."
"Indeed, we've gotten used to it over the years."
Hao Hanyu pursed his lips.
Hao Caiyun saw it, but didn't ask about it at the moment. She planned to ask her younger brother privately.
Hao Hanyu led his sister and her group up to the third floor.
"Sister, feel free to use any of the rooms on the third floor."
There are ten rooms in total, and you will all be staying on this floor.
"Okay, let's choose ourselves."
What about my other nephews and nieces?
“All three of them are away on business and won’t be back until September.”
"It seems the three of them can all stand on their own now?"
"It's alright, they might stay here if we go back to China."
"They agreed too?"
"I haven't asked yet, but Qiqi has made it clear that she wants to stay."
We plan to have Qiqi's second and third older brothers stay and keep her company.
"That works too. The children are older now, so we should support their ideas if possible."
Hao Hanyu nodded and looked at his niece.
"Ya Ya, do you want to come over? Your uncle will help you with the arrangements."
Zhuang Zhimeng shook her head.
"No, thank you, Uncle, but I prefer life in China."
Hao Hanyu smiled, noticing his wife wasn't there, and secretly made a gesture.
“Good, that’s ambitious. Actually, your uncle doesn’t like staying abroad either.”
Zhuang Zhimeng understood immediately and covered her mouth to chuckle.
Hao Hanyu glanced at his watch.
"Sis, you guys pack up first, then come downstairs for dinner."
"Okay, Hanyu, go ahead and do your thing."
Du Yunshi had already taken her son back to their room.
"Jiujiu, what are your thoughts? The exchange program ends in a year."
"Of course I'll stay in China."
I've already found my aunt, and besides, my cousin is good to me, so I'm going to stay with my aunt.
"Are you really sure?"
"I've thought it through, and I won't regret it."
"Okay, as long as you don't regret it, Mom has no objection."
"Lucis, do you really not like it?"
Hao Jiuhe's rebellious nature suddenly erupted.
I don't like it.
I feel like a puppet; I can't even control my own money.
I'd have to beg Lucy, why should I like her?
For the first time, Du Yunshi looked at her youngest son seriously.
"Fine, Mom will take back Lucy's control over your money tomorrow."
You're all grown up now, you can manage your own money.
As for your relationship, that's up to you two; Mom won't interfere anymore.
Hao Jiuhe could hardly believe what he was hearing.
"Mom, are you alright?"
"Hehe, do I look like something's wrong to your mom?"
This is because your dad and I had a fight recently.
It's my fault for being too strict with you.
After reflecting on my actions, I decided to mend my ways.
I've increased your dad's allowance quite a bit, otherwise he would have been really angry.
"No wonder, haha, you finally made the right decision."
Du Yunshi smiled.
"Alright, go downstairs and keep Grandpa and Grandma company. They miss you too."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
When Hao Jiuhe went downstairs, his cousins were already there.
"Cousin, my mom let me manage my money as I see fit."
Zhuang Zhimeng was genuinely happy for her cousin.
"That's great, Jiu Jiu can manage her own money now."
Du Yunshi was quite curious when she heard this.
"Ya Ya, what do you mean?"
"Besides Jiu Jiu, did you all manage your own money when you were Jiu Jiu's age?"
Zhuang Zhiwen, Wang Xiaoman, and An Qingbai all nodded.
"Auntie, did you see that?"
My older brother, sister-in-law, and my husband are all like this.
Let alone me.
By the time we turned eighteen, we all had quite a bit of money.
"They're so pitiful, they have to beg for money even when they need it."
"Okay, thankfully Auntie knows her mistake and corrects it. From now on, Auntie won't bother with Jiu Jiu anymore."
"Don't worry, Jiu Jiu is a fairly self-controlled child."
You can completely trust that he is capable of managing his own money well.
Hao Chengtiao echoed his granddaughter.
“Indeed, Yunshi should trust the children; they are all very capable.”
