Chapter 389: Chapter 388: (3 more updates)

Xu Wentian and Gao Lihong discussed the matter right in front of Xu Niannian.

Seeing the two elders looking like they wanted to make decisions on her behalf, as if she had already been bullied, Xu Niannian hurriedly said, "Grandma, actually there’s no need to go through all this trouble, nobody is bullying me."

The usually compliant grandmother was not heeding Xu Niannian’s words at this moment.

"Baby Nian, don’t be afraid, your grandfather has your back. From now on, let’s see who dares to talk behind your back," the grandmother said excitedly.

Xu Niannian: "..."

So far, she really hadn’t heard any gossip.

Of course, it might also be because she hardly met other people in the large courtyard besides Jin family members.

Every time she went out, it was the Jin family’s driver who drove her.

However, seeing the two elders so determined to make decisions on her behalf, Xu Niannian did not continue to stop them.

This time she came over, apart from visiting the old master and grandmother, mainly it was to bring the diluted spring water for Xu Sisi.

The scars on her face had not completely healed, so she must continue to administer it.

She even brought several bottles of it.

A tiny drop of spring water was diluted in almost a full bottle of water.

When Xu Sisi came downstairs and saw Xu Niannian in the living room chatting with the grandmother, she happily ran down: "Sister Niannian, when did you come?"

"You lazy pig, how can you sleep so long?" Xu Niannian asked her with a laugh.

Xu Sisi stretched lazily with a grin: "Uh, didn’t sleep well last night."

It was mainly because she was too excited.

Xu Niannian handed her the diluted water: "Here, take it."

"What’s this?" Xu Sisi took it, looking puzzled and fiddling with the water bottle.

Xu Niannian tapped her finger on her face, and Xu Sisi immediately had an epiphany, smiling joyfully, "Thank you, Sister Niannian."

Before, Xu Niannian had told Xu Sisi she would bring her some beauty-enhancing Beauty Water for skincare.

Xu Niannian definitely couldn’t tell her this water had magical effects.

She simply told Xu Sisi it was something she had developed that could whiten the skin.

The spring water was milky white, so even after adding water, it still had a faint white color, and Xu Niannian also added some watermelon juice to it.

It looked somewhat like ordinary fruit juice.

So even someone as astute as the grandmother didn’t suspect anything.

But even if she had suspicions, Xu Niannian wasn’t worried. After all, the spring water only worked on those who shared her bloodline.

Xu Sisi cherished the item and took it back to her room.

The grandmother glanced at the cheerful figure of Xu Sisi, and while Xu Wentian was currently away, she quickly pulled Xu Niannian over.

She looked around to check that no one else was there before she whispered into Xu Niannian’s ear, asking a question she was seriously concerned about.

"Baby Nian, be honest with grandma, what’s really going on between you and Xiao Jin? How come you’re not pregnant yet?"

Xu Niannian had been married to Jin Yu for almost four and a half months, yet there was no sign of a baby bump.

When the grandmother married Xu Wentian, she had a strong fertility and became pregnant within a month.

Her two daughters-in-law and the girl Xu Sanya had also gotten pregnant rather quickly.

So seeing Xu Niannian married for four months without a sign of pregnancy, the grandmother immediately became anxious.

She was particularly concerned that Jin Yu might have a problem.

After all, for such a prestigious family to have chosen their rural family so directly, showing no disdain and acting so positively, it made the grandmother suspect ulterior motives.

Although she also felt that her precious granddaughter was better than anyone and more than suitable for anyone.

But that was in her eyes; in others’ eyes, it wasn’t so.

At that time, before Niannian became a big boss and was betrothed to the Jin family, who in the village didn’t say that her Niannian had clung to a higher branch?

If that Jin family boy had no issues, why would he agree so readily?

The more the grandmother thought about it, the more she felt something was off.

Once again being reminded by an elder about the matter of pregnancy, Xu Niannian almost burst into tears of frustration.

It hadn’t been long, yet why was everyone asking her this question?

Since it was her own grandmother, Xu Niannian naturally knew the grandmother was just concerned about her.

She said with a mixture of laughter and helplessness, "Grandma, it’s still early for that."

Although Xu Niannian had now come to terms with the idea and thought that having a child with Jin Yu might not be such a bad idea,

it wasn’t happening that quickly.

Upon hearing this, the grandmother abruptly frowned. "Still early? You and Xiao Jin have been married for over four months. There’s still no sign of anything. Have you been to the hospital for a check-up?" she asked.

The grandmother, unlike most rural people, didn’t automatically assume it was the woman’s fault if a couple couldn’t conceive.

After all, there were such cases in the village.

Previously, one of the village families had a marital conflict because the wife couldn’t fall pregnant for several years. Believing it was the wife’s fault, she was forced to divorce by her mother-in-law.

That wife then remarried soon after, and it wasn’t long before she was pregnant.

Meanwhile, that same local family with the new wife still could not conceive.

Therefore, the grandmother was especially worried that Jin Yu might be the one with the issue.

It wasn’t that she was biased toward her own granddaughter. It was that now, thinking back, the grandmother felt it was too odd how the Jin family had initially chosen their rural family so directly.

Hearing her grandmother’s words, Xu Niannian almost laughed: "Grandma, I’ve already been examined, no problem. Jin Yu has been examined too; there’s no problem with either of us."
