Chapter 232 Water Chestnut



On the second day, Ye Susu was awakened by the aroma coming from the kitchen. Yesterday, she and her grandmother had a heart-to-heart talk. Although Zeng Xingzhu was shocked, she was not as excited as last time. Ye Susu was relieved.

After she finished speaking, she felt as if a huge stone had been lifted from her heart, and she felt a lot more relaxed, so she slept until dawn.

When she woke up, she saw her grandmother busy in the kitchen. The air was filled with the aroma of preserved egg and lean meat porridge. Ye Susu stretched lazily, her voice still soft and glutinous, just waking up: "It smells so good."

Zeng Xingzhu looked at her granddaughter who had just stood up. Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail, her fair skin was flushed, and she looked like a dew-covered flower bud, fresh and charming.

She smiled and said, "Hurry up and wash up, dinner will be ready soon."

After yesterday's conversation, the relationship between the grandfather and grandson returned to the warmth of the past, without any grudges.

After Ye Susu finished her shower, she wiped her wet hair with a towel, walked to the dining table, and looked at the familiar century egg and lean meat porridge. She suddenly felt the long-lost happiness.

Perhaps hometown has this kind of magic that allows people to return to their childhood in an instant.

Ye Susu helped her grandmother to arrange the dishes. In addition to the preserved egg and lean meat porridge, Zeng Xingzhu also steamed corn and mixed some side dishes.

Ye Susu tied her hair up with a rubber band and slowly drank her porridge. Looking at the pickled radish on the table, she casually asked, "Why are there pickled radishes?"

Pickled radish is time-consuming and laborious to make. My grandma just came back yesterday, so it’s probably not made by her.

Zeng Xingzhu took a look and said, "It was sent by your Grandma Zheng."

"Oh." Ye Susu stopped talking after hearing that. Zeng Xingzhu brought up the topic: "Is school about to start for you?"

"Yeah." A lot of things happened this summer vacation, and it will be over in a flash.

"I don't plan to go back to Jiangcheng. You'll be busy with your studies after you go to school and won't have time to accompany me. It's better for you to stay in my hometown. You don't have to worry. Your uncle is still here and he won't ignore me. And your Grandma Zheng, it's nice for us two old sisters to chat and take a walk every day."

Ye Susu bit the tip of her chopsticks and suddenly felt that the rice in the bowl was no longer fragrant. Does grandma still not want to treat her illness?

She had thought that after yesterday's conversation, grandma had figured it out.

After a long silence, Ye Susu put down the bowl and said, "Let's go back to Jiangcheng. The medical level of Lancang's hospital is not as good as Jiangcheng. I am worried."

"What's there to worry about? Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God."

"Grandma!" Seeing Ye Susu's cold face, Zeng Xingzhu realized that she had said the wrong thing, and softened her tone again, saying: "This is the result of my thinking all night. Look, I'm back home, and I'm in good shape. Grandma didn't lie to you. It's more comfortable at home than in the hospital."

Zeng Xingzhu was truly heartbroken when she learned yesterday about the injustice her granddaughter had endured. She was a burden to her granddaughter and it would have been better for her to stay in her hometown.

Ye Susu was a little flustered. Although her grandmother was kind to her, she was stubborn. How could she convince her grandmother?

Just when the two were silent, a clear male voice came from the door: "Su Su, great-grandmother."

Zeng Xingzhu heard this and said, "Guan Qiao must have delivered something. You can go out and take a look."

Ye Susu pursed her lips and responded in a low voice.

The person at the door was indeed Guan Qiao, also Grandma Zheng’s grandson. He was only a few months older than Ye Susu and was currently studying at a university in Beijing.

He wore black-framed glasses and had the image of a typical academic master. When he saw Ye Susu, he smiled gently: "Susu, my grandma asked me to bring you some water chestnuts."

The two families had a good relationship, and it was common for them to send gifts to each other. Ye Susu didn't feel any burden and took the gift with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Guan Qiao."

Her smile was like a blooming rose. Guan Qiao blushed slightly and scratched his head: "You're welcome."

"Susu, my grandma said you came here last night. Did you take the high-speed train?"

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time, and Ye Susu greeted them patiently. At this time, a Maybach slowly drove into the alley and stopped not far from the two of them.

No one paid any attention to the car until a sharp horn sounded.

Ye Susu and Guan Qiao looked towards the direction of the car at the same time. This time, Ye Susu was stunned.

I saw a tall and handsome man get out of the car, but he didn't come closer. Instead, he leaned against the car door with a cigarette between his right index and middle fingers.

Guan Qiao saw Ye Susu staring at the man intently, and it was obvious that her mind was completely worried.

Ye Susu couldn't explain how she felt at the moment. She really didn't expect that Fu Jingchen would follow her to Lancang.

Guan Qiao was a little confused about the situation. His eyes passed over the Maybach and then fell on Fu Jingchen. The man in front of him was tall and handsome, wearing a well-tailored suit. His deep dark eyes fell on you. He seemed calm, but he could really put pressure on people.

This is not a simple man.

Especially Su Su's state. From the moment that man appeared, she was visibly confused. He lowered his head and asked Ye Su Su: "Do you know him?"

Ye Susu felt a little flustered and a little nervous. She said to Guan Qiao, "Well, Brother Guan Qiao, you should go back first. I...I have something to do."

While Guan Qiao was looking at Fu Jingchen, Fu Jingchen was also looking at Guan Qiao.

A young male college student.

He looked away and stopped looking.
