Chapter 165 Meeting Grandma

Grandma lives in a small bungalow with a large garden in front.

It can be seen that grandma should be a very leisurely person, and she takes good care of the flowers and plants.

When Gu Lanting and Yuan Xiao got off the car, grandma was watering the flowers.

Seeing them coming, she did not stop her work.

"You go in and sit first, I will go in after I finish here."

Yuan Xiao heard it and smiled, "Grandma, we will just chat with you here."

Grandma really doesn't look like Bai Hua at all.

Bai Hua has a sense of superiority brought to her by her family and a wealthy life, while grandma is more peaceful, cold and distant.

Even to Gu Lanting, she did not show the intimacy that ordinary grandparents have.

It is more like a jade that has been deposited for many years, warm to the touch.

Grandma had no objection, "If you are willing to wait, then wait."

Yuan Xiao originally thought about whether to ask for help, but she was not good at tending to flowers and plants.

After a while, as if she knew what she was thinking, grandma said, "I thought you would ask for help."

Yuan Xiao chuckled a few times, "I would like to, but I can't."

Grandma chuckled, "You are honest."

Grandma's hair was gray, combed neatly, and tied behind her. The serious old lady smiled like this, and she became a little more friendly.

"I heard that you are studying at the Agricultural University?"

"Yes, in the Agricultural College."

Grandma looked at her sideways, "Where is old man Wen?"

Yuan Xiao seemed to have a common topic with her, "Do you know my teacher?"

"Teacher? He hasn't accepted any students in more than ten years."

Grandma nodded and glanced at Yuan Xiao again, "He values ​​you,

that's right." Gu Lanting was quite proud, "Of course."

Grandma rolled her eyes at him, "I'm not flattering you."

"Several of my old sisters told me that Bai Hua doesn't like you."

Yuan Xiao paused, not knowing how to answer.

"But you don't have to worry about it. The Gu family doesn't have such strict rules, and there is no such thing as elders interfering in the marriage of the younger generation. But Lanting, since you have made the choice, you must take responsibility."

Gu Lanting said seriously, "Yes."

Grandma threw down the bucket and clapped her hands, "Let's go, I have something for you, take it and go."

Gu Lanting led Yuanxiao in.

Grandma took out a wooden box from the room, which looked quite old.

There were also a few calligraphy and paintings.

She threw the calligraphy and paintings to Gu Lanting, "These are said to be antiques, I don't understand this stuff, your grandfather insisted on leaving them with me when he was alive, it's just right for you to take it back."

She put another box in front of Yuanxiao.

"This is for you."

Yuanxiao felt that this box should be an antique, and the carvings on it were very delicate.

"Can I open it and take a look?" She didn't dare to accept it without seeing what the gift was.

Grandma sneered, "Open it, it's all yours anyway."

After Yuan Xiao opened it, she felt embarrassed.

It was full of jewelry, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, gold, silver and jade, everything.

No wonder grandma had the confidence to divorce grandpa, she is really rich.

"Grandma, although I really want to accept this, I can't..."

Grandma smiled even more happily, "Why not?"

"What if I'm not with Gu Lanting in the future, wouldn't this thing be given to me in vain?"

Gu Lanting squeezed Yuan Xiao's hand heavily and looked at her fiercely.

What do you mean by not being together?

Yuan Xiao smiled flatteringly, "I mean, just in case, just in case!"

"Nothing can happen."

"Okay, okay, no in case, even if nothing happens, this is too expensive."

Grandma folded her hands on her knees, "What's so expensive, I have a lot."

Yuan Xiao shuddered, people are so annoying when they compare themselves to others.

She has made money for so long, but she probably doesn't have as much as grandma's box of jewelry.

"Okay, take it and leave."

Yuan Xiao knew that she had to accept this thing today, and hurriedly picked up the rose nougat that she made and put it on the table.

"Grandma, this is the food I made myself, you should like it. But don't eat too much sweet, one a day is just right, and you have to brush your teeth after eating."

Grandma drove them both away, thinking I was a child.

After leaving grandma's house, Yuan Xiao's mood had not yet calmed down.

She flipped through the things in the box and played with them over and over again.

Seeing her money-obsessed look, Gu Lanting loved her more and more.

"You like these things?"

It should be a woman's nature to love jewelry, right? Yuan Xiao thought so.

"If I had known you liked it, I would have more."

Gu Lanting didn't like these, but he wouldn't give them all away. He put them all in the bank safe.

He thought about giving the key to Yuan Xiao some time.

He sent Yuan Xiao home and didn't stay for long, but returned to the army.

Yuan Xiao returned to her yard with the things in her arms. Before she went in, she heard Qin Qin crying.

She quickened her pace and ran in.

When she went in, she saw a man with his back to Yuan Xiao.

Bai Yan was holding Qin Qin and didn't want to look at him.

Yuan Xiao thought, this should be Pei Yaoqing, right?

"Is this Uncle Pei?"

Pei Yaoqing turned around and was stunned when he saw Yuan Xiao.

He had seen this girl before in the place where Tan Yanan went to the countryside.

So, was Qin Qin so close to him at that time?

Yuan Xiao also recognized him. It turned out that this man was Qin Qin's father.

When Qin Qin saw Yuan Xiao, she opened her arms for her to hug.

Yuan Xiao took Qin Qin and said, "She's just shy. It's okay."

Pei Yaoqing looked dejected. "Yuan Xiao, thank you very much for saving Qin Qin."

Yuan Xiao glanced at Bai Yan and said, "It's my duty."

"I want to take Qin Qin home."

Yuan Xiao objected subconsciously when she heard Pei Yaoqing's words, "Impossible."

After she finished speaking, she felt that her words were a little unclear, so she added, "After the Pei family's affairs are resolved, if Qin Qin is willing, she can go back with you. But now, it's impossible!"

Pei Yaoqing looked tired and felt cold in his heart.

"It's not that I don't want to solve it, I just need time..."

Yuan Xiao pulled the corner of his lips, "Gu Lanting has already obtained all the evidence, and they just need to go to the Public Security Bureau to file a case for investigation. Uncle Pei only needs to make sure that the Pei family will not interfere with the Public Security Bureau's investigation. The truth will soon be revealed and it won't take much time."

Pei Yaoqing was even more embarrassed when he heard that Gu Lanting already had evidence.

I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Pei family to interfere in this matter.

Yuan Xiao only wanted to think about the problem from Qinqin's perspective, and didn't want to think about the shame of the Pei family that should not be exposed.

He only thought about how embarrassed he was, but didn't think about how much Qinqin had suffered.

"Uncle Pei, go back, I will take good care of my aunt and Qinqin."

Pei Yaoqing smiled bitterly, wiped his face, and touched Qinqin's little fat face, "Baby, Daddy will go back first."

Qinqin buried her face in Yuan Xiao's neck and snorted.
