Chapter 314 Meeting an Old Friend in a Foreign Land



They all happily agreed.

Han Jingru held one child in each hand, treating them as if they were precious treasures.

Looking at the lively atmosphere, Lin Tiancheng couldn't help but smile. "Alright, let's go back first. This isn't the place to talk. Let's chat slowly when we get home."

"Okay, let's go home." Han Jingru led the two children ahead.

Lin Tiancheng and his wife were both key technical personnel at the steel plant, so the house they were allocated was quite spacious.

It has two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom, and is about 80 square meters.

The house was spotless, and the balcony was filled with lush, vibrant flowers and plants.

Xiaoxue once said that Han Jingru and Lin Tiancheng both love flowers, and now it seems that this is indeed true.

Looking at the large spread of food at the dinner table, Su Nianxue smiled and said, "Mom, Uncle Lin, Xiaoxue, this is too lavish."

There are only a few of us, how can we possibly finish all that food?

"Sister, you have no idea how excited Mom and Dad have been since they found out you were coming. They haven't been able to sleep for several nights."

My parents talk about this every day; everyone in our apartment building knows about it.

"If I hadn't stopped them, there probably would have been more than this." Lin Xiaoxue glanced at the two eager people and laughed.

Su Nianxue glanced at them in surprise. No wonder so many people greeted them when they came back.

It turns out they had already spread the news.

Han Jingru gave her a reproachful look, "Why are you saying all this? Your sister rarely comes, so it's only right that we prepare more for her!"

“Actually, there’s no need to go to so much trouble. We’re all family, so just be casual.” She understood Han Jingru’s feelings and felt guilty towards her.

So, he was always trying to find ways to make it up to her.

Although they haven't met again over the years, they've never lost touch.

For more than ten years, their family has received several packages mailed from Luzhou every year.

The package contained the most popular snacks in Luzhou, as well as the latest clothing styles.

These things made the two children the most conspicuous presence in the village and even at school.

So even though the siblings had never met them, they knew that their maternal grandparents and aunt lived in a place called Luzhou.

Su Nianxue sighed softly. She had been very happy these past years and had long since let go of what had happened before.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have come to their house.

"Don't listen to Xiaoxue's nonsense."

Actually, we didn't do much; we just didn't know your tastes, so we prepared extra.

"You rarely come all this way, you should stay for at least a few more days this time," Lin Tiancheng replied with a smile.

"Yes, your Uncle Lin is right. You should stay for a few more days this time."

Your Uncle Lin and I will take you around to see the sights." Han Jingru meant the same thing.

Now that they are retired, I have plenty of time to spend with them.

She looked at her daughter's family and liked them very much.

How can we not let them stay for a while longer?

"I definitely want to go shopping."

However, staying a few more days is not an option.

As you all know, we have a lot of things to deal with at home. It's fine for us to get away for a few days, but if we stay any longer, people will start to complain.

Su Nianxue hadn't forgotten that Yang Hongxing had said that once they returned, the couple also wanted to see the outside world.

"We came to Luzhou City this time, firstly to send Xiaxia to school."

"I also came to visit you two, but staying too long is really not advisable," Gu Yanbai added, helping to explain.

Uncle Lin expressed his understanding, "That's true, you guys are all busy too."

Han Jingru was somewhat reluctant, but what the other person said made sense, so she had no choice but to give up.

Gu Yanbai glanced at the two children. "Who says otherwise?"

However, he won't be busy for many more years.

I plan to let my brother and sister take over our responsibilities after they finish their studies.

Then we'll just wash our hands of it and live our leisurely lives.

"Brother-in-law, you've worked hard for so many years to build this family business. Are you really willing to just hand over all that power?" Lin Xiaoxue teased.

Gu Yanbai waved his hand, his face full of humility, "What family business or not?"

It's just about making a living.

Your sister and I have been busy all our lives, and half of our lives have passed by just like that.

To be honest, your sister has been managing everything at home all these years; she's the one who's worked the hardest in our family.

I was thinking that when I have some free time, I must take her to travel and see the world.

Enjoy life to the fullest and live a leisurely life.

“That’s great! When you retire, come to Luzhou! Then our whole family can stay together, wouldn’t that be wonderful?” Lin Xiaoxue immediately took it to heart.

"It's not that easy."

The siblings are still in school. Even after they graduate, they can't just start working on it right away!

"So, this is a very long process." Lin Tiancheng couldn't help but pour cold water on her enthusiasm.

"Dad, can't you make me happy?"

"Your dad has always been too clear-headed!" Han Jingru said as well.

Although the mother and daughter said those words, they knew in their hearts that he was telling the truth.

Lin Xiaoxue picked up a piece of food for Xiaxia before saying, "Come over to our house whenever you have time."

School food can never compare to home-cooked meals.

Since your grandparents have nothing better to do anyway, let them cook you some more delicious food.

"Okay, thank you, Auntie, and thank you, Grandpa and Grandma. I'll come whenever I have time. Don't think I'm a nuisance then," Xiaxia said sweetly, melting the hearts of everyone at the table.
