Chapter 496: Chapter 495: Something is Wrong (1 Update)

Zuo Qing was eventually taken back by Ye Shaoting in his arms.

On her umpteenth attempt to tirelessly cover his eyes, Ye Shaoting decided to forcibly trap her small hands as well.

Along the way, she even cried incessantly.

When Ye Shaoting carried her back, they were met with several dubious glances from Gao Lihong and Xu Wentian.

There were quite a few onlookers on the Wedding Night, with many people wanting to tease and play pranks in the bridal room, but none dared to make a move because Yang Cuihua was watching over the scene; anyone who tried was immediately chased out.

In Yang Cuihua’s words, she was still waiting to hold her granddaughter.

This was a mother who spoiled her daughter to no end.

Harboring only thoughts of holding a granddaughter in her arms, she showed no interest in grandsons whatsoever.

The next morning, Xu Niannian slept in until past nine before getting up.

When she woke up, Jin Yu was no longer in the room.

Xu Niannian groggily rubbed her head.

Her head hurt so much.

What happened?

Could it be she caught a cold in the middle of the night?

Xu Niannian could not for the life of her think that she had actually gotten drunk on a few bowls of non-alcoholic sweet wine.

Not to mention, she was still unaware that her two treasures were still intoxicated at the moment.

After getting dressed, Xu Niannian planned to go downstairs to find Jin Yu.

No sooner had she walked out of her room than she saw Xu Erhong and Jin Nanxi standing at the end of the corridor, which made Xu Niannian raise her eyebrows in surprise.

What on earth was her second uncle up to?

"Uncle Xu, do you need me for something?" Jin Nanxi asked amiably.

Xu Erhong scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, "It’s nothing much, just wanted to talk to you about my Sisi and that boy Jin Ruiyang."

After the events of the previous night, Xu Erhong had a conscience awakening; he felt he could not just trap someone for the sake of his daughter’s happiness.

Hearing him bring up this matter, Jin Nanxi smiled and covered her mouth, "Uncle Xu, rest assured, I’ve already talked to Ruiyang’s mother about this. If it can happen, Ruiyang won’t dare to oppose."

Xu Erhong, who was planning to decline: "...Really? Ruiyang agrees?"

"It’s settled, don’t worry. Let’s consider this matter concluded."

So, it’s just settled like that.

Xu Erhong had prepared a lot to say, but now, he suddenly found himself not wanting to say any of it.

If the future in-laws said it could happen, then his Sisi’s sentiments weren’t completely unrequited.

With this thought, Xu Erhong’s mind started churning with little schemes again.

His daughter was, after all, his own flesh and blood, cough cough, and finding such a good young man was something Xu Erhong was happy to see. Now that their parents have given the go-ahead, he couldn’t be blamed.

It wasn’t his coercion, he was innocent.

With that thought, the smidgen of guilt Xu Erhong had towards Jin Ruiyang vanished without a trace.

In the end, not even a speck remained.

Having overheard what the two of them were discussing, Xu Niannian didn’t feel like poking her nose into the excitement any longer.

She patted her belly with a smile, touched it lovingly and said, "Good babies, let’s go find your dad."

She had no idea where Jin Yu had gone off to.

Chen Xiaorou was especially virtuous, having prepared breakfast for the entire family early in the morning. Even when Yang Cuihua suggested she take a rest, she refused.

Now married, Chen Xiaorou’s hair was pinned up, and Xu Niannian noticed she had a touch more femininity in her features.

But... she seemed to walk quite normally.

There were no signs of discomfort.

Because of Xu Zhiqiang’s personality that’s so direct it made people want to criticize, Xu Niannian couldn’t help but suspect, he didn’t touch Xiao Rou last night at all, did he?

Yang Cuihua, with her seasoned experience, could tell at a glance that there had been no substantial progress between Chen Xiaorou and Xu Zhiqiang.

She was all smiles to their faces, but as soon as they turned away, she immediately dragged Xu Niannian back to the room.

Her face grew long at once, "What’s with Zhiqiang, that boy?"

"What about Zhiqiang?" Xu Niannian asked, puzzled.

Yang Cuihua angrily placed her hands on her hips, "He didn’t touch Xiao Rou last night."

Xu Niannian had only been suspicious at first, but upon hearing Yang Cuihua say this, she couldn’t help but ask, "Mom, how do you know?"

Yang Cuihua, fuming, sat down on Xu Niannian’s bed to scold, "How could I not know? I was listening at the door all night, didn’t hear a peep, and this morning, Xiao Rou even got up earlier than me."

Xu Niannian: "...Mom, why were you eavesdropping?"

Yang Cuihua thought to herself, could she not eavesdrop? It’s all because her son lacks discernment.

"What on earth is Zhiqiang thinking? Xiao Rou’s such a good girl, and he’s not holding onto her while she’s still warm."

Yang Cuihua was anxious in her heart as she saw the matter unfold before her eyes.

Now that the family had money, Yang Cuihua was afraid that Xu Zhiqiang might bring home some improper women.

Xiao Rou had been by her side the longest, so Yang Cuihua felt more at ease with her.

"Mom, I’ll talk to Zhiqiang later," Xu Niannian said with a laugh as she patted her back to comfort her.

Yang Cuihua saw her own treasured Niannian with her pregnant belly and felt a bit better, her eyes smiling in a flash.

"My granddaughter is so good."

Xu Niannian: "..."

Great, she had guessed it was a granddaughter again.

Setting aside Xu Zhiqiang’s issues, Xu Sanya, as Zhiqiang’s Young Aunt, was bound to come over and help out with his wedding.

In the countryside, it’s customary to have banquets for three days, and they still had to invite the villagers for meals today.

However, early this morning, Xu Sanya was called back by someone from the town.

It was said that Xu Sanya’s neighbor happened to visit a village next to Qingshan Village, so they went out of their way to tell Xu Sanya.

It turned out that Xu Sanya’s husband was sick and had been hospitalized.

Xu Sanya, left with no choice, hurried back in haste.

Xu Niannian didn’t hear about this until after breakfast.

The family sat at the dining table, eating happily, except for the old lady whose expression was off.

After breakfast, the old lady said to Xu Niannian, "Baby Nian, you go with Xiao Jin later to see your Young Aunt. Your Little Uncle is sick, and we can’t leave here, so go and have a look."

The old lady spoke with her eyes downcast, in a focused manner.

Xu Niannian agreed with an okay.

From the old lady’s attitude, Xu Niannian vaguely felt there might be some problem, or else she wouldn’t have asked her and Jin Yu to go.

She was pregnant now, and the old lady was reluctant to let her run around, so since she actively asked her to go, there must be some hidden issues.

Indeed, when Jin Yu went to drive the car, the old lady’s expression was very grim.

She pulled Xu Niannian aside and said earnestly, "Girl, you’re the sharpest among the younger ones in our family. When you go to see your Young Aunt, try to find out what Du Zhiwen has been up to lately."

The old lady only said these words, nothing superfluous, and the reason she didn’t look good was that last night, while chatting and reminiscing with some village women, she overheard some gossip.

Recently, it was said that Sanya’s husband had been seen in the neighboring city, getting cosy with a young woman.

No matter how much the old lady complained about her own child, it was only verbal complaints; she didn’t truly despise him.

Hearing that Du Zhiwen might have an inappropriate relationship with another woman, the old lady couldn’t keep still.

But whether this was just rumors or something more serious had yet to be verified.
