"Grandma, this is my heartfelt gift. If you don't accept it, I can't take the chicken. Besides, I used to eat at your house a lot when I was little."
Jiang Xuening handed the red envelope to the old woman again, her eyes full of love, showing that she truly respected the old woman.
"Okay, then Grandma will accept it. Ningning has grown up and become more sensible. She knows how to care for Grandma now."
Seeing that she could no longer refuse, the old woman accepted the red envelope and couldn't help but praise Jiang Xuening.
In her heart, Jiang Xuening has been very sensible since she was a child, and she is even more so now. Her grandmother is also very satisfied with her.
"Hehe, Grandma, I'll come back to see you again when I have time."
Seeing that the old lady had accepted the red envelope, she felt much better and breathed a sigh of relief. Now that she was all grown up, she couldn't just eat and take things for free at the old lady's house.
What's more, she even helped him with his work for quite a while.
"Okay, then you go ahead and do your thing."
The old woman smiled as she saw Jiang Xuening and Yan Yuze off, her eyes filled with reluctance. She didn't know when she would see Jiang Xuening again.
Goodbye, Grandma!
Jiang Xuening and Yan Yuze said goodbye to the old lady together and then got into the car.
"You can't bear to part with Grandma?"
As soon as the car started, Jiang Xuening's tears fell onto her cheeks.
"Mmm... Grandma took good care of me when I was little... Every time I came back to see her, I felt so sad when I left."
Jiang Xuening nodded frantically. Of course... When she was little, she often ate at her grandma's house because no one took care of her... Her parents were both very busy with work.
"Then let's come back and visit Grandma again next time we have time."
Yan Yuze understood Jiang Xuening's feelings; they had a deep bond.
"good."
Jiang Xuening took out a tissue and wiped away her tears, gazing out the window at the village, feeling both familiar and strange...
It feels familiar because I lived here when I was a child, but strange because the village has changed a lot, and many of the people who used to live here are no longer here...
Things have changed...
This village holds memories of her and her mother…

Yan Family Villa
"Why isn't Luo Luo awake yet? She usually wakes up very early at home. Isn't my darling daughter hungry?"
Li Shuwen waited and waited, but Yan Xiluo did not reply to her message.
"Mom, maybe my sister is having back pain and can't sleep well at night, so she might wake up later?"
Yan Yinran suddenly remembered what Yan Xiluo had told her last night and quickly tried to smooth things over, saying that she still didn't know whether Yan Xiluo had gone home or not.
She could only postpone it as long as possible, waiting until Yan Xiluo appeared before making a decision...
"Yes, yes, that's true. How come I didn't think of that? Physical pain can definitely affect sleep quality."
Upon hearing this, Li Shuwen felt it made a lot of sense and immediately dispelled her doubts. She realized that minor aches and pains could indeed affect her sleep, so it seemed she had been worrying too much.
"Then let Luo Luo sleep a little longer."
Yan Youting spoke slowly, looking at the newspaper. Reading the morning paper every day was his habit.
"Yes, yes, I'll cook with Mom later, and she can teach me how to make soup, okay?"
Yan Yinran tried to find a way to divert Li Shuwen's attention so that she wouldn't keep talking about Yan Xiluo.
If they fail to hold on and Li Shuwen and Yan Youting discover that Yan Xiluo ran away with injuries, the family will probably be in chaos.
"Ranran wants to learn how to make soup? That's great, but Mom has never let you do any housework since you were little..."
Li Shuwen had these doubts: Could Yan Yinran really do these things? Her hands were clearly unused to manual labor.
If Yan Xiluo had been with her since childhood, she wouldn't have let Yan Xiluo do any chores...
Hands are a woman's second face...
"Mom, I'll need a family eventually, you know. I can't just go to my husband's family and not know anything, can I?"
Yan Yinran said in a coquettish tone, feeling that it was unacceptable not to know how to make soup, something as simple as that...
“If your in-laws are willing to let you work, your mother won’t let you marry into one of their families and suffer hardship. What? You’re used to being pampered in our Yan family just to go work in another family? Your father wouldn’t agree to that.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Youting immediately closed the newspaper in his hand, seemingly somewhat unhappy. Their daughter should marry into a better family, not necessarily a perfect match, but at least so that she wouldn't be a housewife.
He could leave Yan Xiluo with peace of mind. The Lan family was more powerful than the Yan family, and they would never wrong Yan Xiluo. In addition, Yan Xiluo herself was very capable at a young age, and she was not the kind of person who would let him suffer.
Yan Yinran is still undecided, which does make him a little worried. Fortunately, he's not in a rush to get married yet, there's still plenty of time.
"Your father is right about that, but if you learn this, you can still take care of yourself in the future."
Li Shuwen chuckled. It was true that the Yan family was a doting father; they had always favored their daughters more.
"Hehe, my mom and dad are so good to me."
Yan Yinran was deeply moved by what she heard; she hadn't realized how important she was to her parents...
I feel a warm feeling in my heart.
“Silly child, you and your sister are both our children. Even if we are not related by blood, our family has loved you for so many years. As long as you are well and do not do anything wrong, the Yan family will always be your family.”
Yan Youting sighed, thinking that it was wonderful to have his whole family together, all of them.
"Yes, of course I know that. My parents didn't neglect me because my sister came back, so I know how much they love me and don't treat me like an outsider."
Yan Yinran was certainly not stupid; Yan Youting was both comforting her and subtly hinting at something.
"Then come with Mom? To learn how to make soup?"
Li Shuwen felt that no matter how long she cooked the soup, it would take time, and she hoped that Yan Xiluo could drink it as soon as she woke up.
"Okay, Mom!"
Yan Yinran quickly took Li Shuwen's hand and went into the kitchen together, leaving Yan Youting alone in the living room reading the newspaper.

Yan's Group
"Hey, Minister Mu, come to my office."
Yan Mingxuan suddenly remembered that he hadn't told Mu Ran about taking her home last night, so he immediately made a call to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs via internal line.
Mu Ran is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, so if a call comes to her office, she will naturally answer it.
"Okay, Mr. Yan."
Mu Ran chuckled. Was he going to use this trick to lure her to his office again?
She shook her head helplessly.
Mu Ran soon appeared at the door of Yan Mingxuan's office.
Knock knock knock!
"Please come in!"
Yan Mingxuan's loud voice came from inside.
"Speak, what brings you up here this time?"
Mu Ran pushed open the door and went in, locking it behind her; she was already used to doing this.
"Of course I miss you..."
Yan Mingxuan stood up and hugged Mu Ran, resting his chin on her shoulder and inhaling the fragrance of her hair.
"You can't keep calling me during work hours! I have work to do! Is this how a CEO should act?"
Mu Ran complained a little... "Couldn't they have been a little more restrained?"
