"Evil enemy! Daya!" Old Mrs. Xu shouted these two words, and her voice couldn't help but choked with sobs.
Xu Ning quickly climbed down from the carriage and threw himself into Old Lady Xu's open arms.
"Grandma... I miss you so much!" Xu Ning forgot for a moment that he was a thirty-year-old soul, and he nestled in the arms of Grandma Xu and burst into tears.
The tears that Old Mrs. Xu had been suppressing with her reason suddenly flowed out.
"My dear, what a sin..."
The others couldn't help but feel touched when they saw the warmth between the grandparents and grandchildren.
Xu Feng also squeezed over with small steps. Old Lady Xu reached out her big hand and touched his little head. "Little treasure, go to your mother. Your mother misses you so much."
After Old Lady Xu finished speaking, she withdrew her big hand from Xu Feng's head, and the next moment she was already checking Xu Ning's body, "You've lost weight, your daughter has suffered a lot."
"Grandma, I miss you so much that I can't eat..."
The others stared and didn't dare to speak.
"My dear, whatever you want to eat, I'll go cook it now!" Old Mrs. Xu touched Xu Ning's dull and messy hair, smoothed her bangs and alopecia, and tucked them behind her ears.
"I want to eat braised pork made with milk! Braised pig's trotters! Braised prawns! And..."
"What else?"
"And I want to eat stewed beef brisket with radish..." Xu Ning had never eaten this dish cooked by Old Lady Xu. Mainly because Old Lady Xu "loved" her very much at the moment, and she just wanted to try it because she was craving it.
Old Mrs. Xu: ...
"Or, beef offal noodles will be fine too." Xu Ning suggested again without giving up.
Others: Just give up, they don’t sell beef in the South!
Old Lady Xu released the monkey from her arms and said, "Mei Niang, the eldest brother should be back from the market soon. You can watch him cook what he bought. I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to my room and rest for a while."
"Xiaobao, Daya, don't run around this time. You are not allowed to go anywhere except the bamboo forest before the New Year!" After saying that, Old Mrs. Xu turned around and walked into the house.
Xu Ning was dumbfounded. Where was the warmth she'd been promised? It hadn't even been half a day yet? Didn't other families start with a few days? Why was she fast-forwarding ten times faster?
"Grandma! Grandma! Wait for me! I bought a lot of things for you!"
"Oh, your dad is back. Tell him to move into my room." Old Mrs. Xu didn't stop. Xu Ning caught up with her and tugged at her sleeve, acting coquettishly. "Grandma, didn't you promise to cook braised pork for me?"
"You look like braised pork to me! Get out of here!" Old Mrs. Xu gently pushed Xu Ning away, but Xu Ning stuck back to her.
At the gate of the Xu family, Xu An had already asked people to put load-bearing wooden boards on the threshold, while Pei Chen and others pulled the carriage upwards.
The Grand Minister of Agriculture had been helped out of the carriage by Liu Li. He stood at the gate of the Xu family and looked at the courtyard that looked like a modern quadrangle courtyard, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Miss Pei, who is this old lady?" After expressing her longing for her youngest son, Zhang soon saw the Minister of Agriculture. Pei Jiao was still talking to Pei Ni. When she heard Zhang's voice and was about to introduce them, she saw Xu Ning hurriedly pulling Old Lady Xu back from the yard.
What a sin, I almost forgot about this person!
Old Mrs. Xu looked in the direction of the door towards the Minister of Agriculture Qin Wen. Surprise flashed in her eyes. Why did she feel like she had seen him somewhere before?
Grand Minister of Agriculture Qin Wen also met Old Lady Xu's gaze and felt a little familiar. He thought about it and always felt that he knew this old lady.
"Grandma, let me introduce you. This old man is Qin Wen, and he's also the Minister of Agriculture of our Daqing Dynasty!"
Minister of Agriculture? An official? Why was he coming to her house?!
No, it’s him!!!
"It's you!"
"Are you Xu Zhen?!"
The two spoke in unison, leaving the onlookers confused?
"What's going on?"
"Why? Do you two know each other?"
"Grandma, isn't your name Xu Chunhua?"
