Chapter 374 The old lady was only pretending in front of the young master.



Jian Yixue nodded after hearing this.

"Grandma, where do you want me to take my cousin?"

You hear someone's voice before you see them.

Upon hearing the sound, both Jian Yixue and the old lady turned to look.

Before long, two handsome men with outstanding looks came into view, walking towards them one after the other.

Jian Yixue looked through Dongfang Yi at Ye Mohan behind him, her face full of affection.

Although the two had only been separated for a short while, she already missed him terribly.

Dongfang Yi's lips twitched when he saw that Jian Yixue ignored his gaze.

Ugh, he really is a third wheel.

It's best to avoid hanging out with those two in the future, lest his stomach suffer.

This is definitely excessive dog food.

Ye Mohan walked straight to Jian Yixue's side, leaned down slightly and whispered in her ear, "Wife, I missed you."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue's smile grew even sweeter.

"Me too."

The group was very close, so Dongfang Yi naturally heard their conversation.

I suddenly felt like shutting myself off.

You've only been apart for a little over an hour, and you're already thinking like that?

I don't understand!

As a single man, he really doesn't understand.

Unable to bear watching the two of them being so affectionate, Dongfang Yi turned to the old lady and asked.

"Grandma, where did you tell me to take my cousin?"

The old lady looked at Jian Yixue and the other woman with a warm, aunt-like smile. When she heard Dongfang Yi's words, she turned her head to look at them.

When she thought that Jian Yixue, who was the same age as her, was already married, while her older brother didn't even have a partner, she rolled her eyes at him without any attempt to hide it.

"You should learn from others."

However, the old lady also knew that ever since her daughter's incident, the old man had stopped interfering in the marriage of any member of the family.

She is the same.

However, seeing Jian Yixue and the other person, I couldn't help but want to say a few words.

Dongfang Yi received no reply and was instead urged about his life's most important matter, which was quite unfair.

Dongfang Yi turned to look at Ye Mohan, and was about to complain when he saw Ye Mohan's smug look.

Immediately, Dongfang Yi couldn't help but silently curse Ye Mohan in his heart.

Having a wife is nothing special!

He doesn't care.

The old lady didn't notice the two's rivalry. Thinking about the previous topic, she said, "After dinner, take Xue'er to visit her aunt's room."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yi immediately understood and nodded.

"Okay. Leave this to me."

Seeing this, the old lady looked at Jian Yixue and the other girl with a smile on her face, "It's almost noon, after you finish eating, I'll have Yi'er take you there."

Jian Yixue looked at the sky and realized it was indeed close to lunchtime; she was quite hungry.

Thinking that he had things to do when he got back, he nodded in agreement.

When the group arrived at the room, Grandma Su had already made all the necessary arrangements.

A table laden with local specialties, a truly abundant feast.

After everyone was seated, the old lady began to greet them.

"I don't know what you like to eat. These are all things I asked Grandma Su to bring from the clan's kitchen. Just have some."

Upon hearing the old woman's words, a look of surprise flashed across Dongfang Yi's face.

Others may not know, but he does.

This is the first time Grandma has served dishes in the family kitchen since she moved here.

This was also the first time he had ever seen such a wide variety of dishes here.

He could tell from the dishes on the table that his grandmother must have taken a portion of every dish in the kitchen.

This shows Jian Yixue's status in her grandmother's heart.

Even he, who was once the most favored by his grandmother, felt that his position was somewhat insecure.

Jian Yixue noticed the change in Dongfang Yi's expression and asked, "Why the expression?"

Dongfang Yi glanced at Jian Yixue with annoyance, "You have no idea, Grandma treats you much better than she treats me."

Normally when I come here, it's just simple food, but look at you, the table is full of delicious dishes. Wow... I'm so envious!

Jian Yixue was deeply moved after hearing this, but before she could speak, she was interrupted by the old lady.

"You little brat, Xue'er finally came back, and you still want to be jealous?"

You come here every day to freeload off this old woman, and you have the nerve to say that? Are you looking for a beating?

The old lady said, feigning fierceness.

After saying that, he raised his hand, making a gesture as if he wanted to hit someone.

Upon seeing this, Dongfang Yi immediately begged for forgiveness, "I was wrong, I was wrong, Grandma. I'm so old now, please don't do this in front of outsiders... I'll lose face."

In front of the old lady, Dongfang Yi showed no airs whatsoever, behaving like a dutiful grandson.

Upon hearing this, the old lady retorted, "There are no outsiders here. No matter how old you are, you are still my grandson."

In the old lady's eyes, everyone present was her family.

Although she was still sharp-tongued, the old lady lowered her raised hand.

"Okay, okay, it was my fault for using the wrong words," Dongfang Yi said obediently.

"Grandma, hurry up and eat, or the food will get cold."

Dongfang Yi pointed to the dishes on the table and said.

Hearing this, the old lady looked at Jian Yixue and Mo Han and said with a smile, "Xue'er, Mo Han, eat quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."

Watching the two interact, Jian Yixue couldn't help but smile knowingly.

My mother used to be very happy.

Then he nodded, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat the delicious food on the table.

She had eaten these dishes before.

Eating in such an atmosphere, she didn't know if it was because of her mood or the skill of the chef from the Dongfang family.

These dishes were exceptionally delicious compared to anything I'd had before.

Su Hui stood aside, watching the happy family, and a rare smile appeared on her face.

This is the happiest Mrs. has been since she moved here.

She had been by the lady's side for decades, and she knew that the lady had truly come back to life after this ordeal.

That's great, everything is moving in a positive direction.

Perhaps, before long, the young lady will really be able to come back.

Then...

Su Hui gazed at the scene before her, dreaming of the future.

...

After finishing their meal and resting for a while, the old lady asked Dongfang Yi to take Jian Yixue and the other woman to Dongfang Tinglan's residence.

The old woman watched the man leave, then prepared to return to her previous room to continue praying.

Su Hui understood the old lady's intention and immediately stepped forward to help her up.

He had barely touched the hem of the old lady's dress when she dodged away.

"No need, I can manage."

The old lady went straight to the room she had been in before.

She felt very energetic and didn't seem to need anyone to support her.

Su Hui was left standing there in a daze, watching the old lady ahead of her, who was agile and walked with great speed.

Su Hui rubbed her eyes, confirming that she had seen wrong, and was quite surprised.

Others were unaware of the old lady's true health condition, but she, as the old lady's closest person, was none other than her.

She knew very well that the old lady was only pretending in front of the young master.

Every time the young master came, the old lady would take painkillers so that she could barely get up and walk.
