Chapter 99: Chapter 98: Thawing the Old Grudges

Xu Niannian didn’t delay and immediately picked up the items to head to her second uncle’s house.

Since Yang Cuihua had relented, she was even less likely to hold onto these things.

When she arrived at her second uncle’s house, her grandma was in the yard feeding the chickens. Seeing her approach, the wrinkles on her face all turned into a smile.

"Baby Nian is here."

The old lady quickly threw the winnowing basket to the ground and ran excitedly toward Xu Niannian, as the old hens quickly ran into the basket to eat the beans.

The arrival of her granddaughter made the old lady even neglect her usually treasured old hens, which clearly showed what kind of place Xu Niannian held in her heart.

At the moment, Liu Guimei was in the kitchen. The old lady had spoken tonight; they could have noodle dumplings for dinner.

When going to the old lady’s room to get flour, Liu Guimei felt a complex mix of emotions seeing all the good things previously brought by Xu Niannian.

She was too petty, just like her husband said. Her mother-in-law had lost her husband early in life.

It was normal for her to miss her father-in-law, and out of the entire family, only Xu Niannian resembled her grandfather. It was natural for her to favor Niannian.

She had gotten used to it over the years, so why couldn’t she hold back that day?

Now, although the old lady didn’t say anything, she must certainly have had thoughts about her in her heart.

Moreover, Niannian was so clever. Last time she was here, her attitude toward Niannian wasn’t warm, and that girl definitely noticed.

It was just a few dollars, yet she had given the child a cold shoulder. In response, the girl brought back so many good things.

Even though she said it was for the old lady, wasn’t it also to help their family out?

The old lady and they lived and ate together, and someone deliberately buying so many good things was clearly thinking of their entire family.

While Liu Guimei was overwhelmed with guilt, Xu Niannian’s soft and sweet voice came from outside the door.

"Grandma, walk slowly, don’t hurry..." Xu Niannian said with amusement, helping the old lady into the house.

Her other hand was carrying items.

The old lady was so excited to see her granddaughter, and today she had heard from the village busybodies that Jin Yu had come to visit Baby Nian.

In others’ eyes, they felt her granddaughter had climbed up to a good family, but the old lady didn’t think so.

In her eyes, she felt her own granddaughter was extremely good, just as excellent as her grandfather, and deserved the best man.

Now that her granddaughter had come to see her, she guessed Jin Yu must have already left.

The old lady, pulling Xu Niannian into the house, said to her, "Grandma has made you a pair of pretty shoes."

The old lady loved Xu Niannian very much. Xu Sisi was still busy with homework, and when she saw Xu Niannian was here, she just smiled, lifted her head to shout "Sister Niannian," and then bowed her head to continue writing furiously.

Liu Guimei heard the voices and hurried out to greet them, smiling, "Niannian is here?"

"Yeah, I came to see Grandma and also brought some things over."

As she spoke, Xu Niannian handed the bag she was carrying to Liu Guimei.

Liu Guimei immediately spotted the Malt Extract and milk in the bag, as well as several large red apples.

"This..." Liu Guimei said, looking embarrassed, "Niannian, why have you brought more things? Didn’t you just bring a lot of stuff over the other day? What are you doing?"

"Second Aunt, don’t be so formal with me, we’re all family. Besides, I didn’t go out of my way to buy these. Jin Yu brought them over today. He brought too much, and we wouldn’t be able to finish it all at home. I thought about how Doudou and Sisi are still growing and need nutrition, so I brought it over."

Feeling Liu Guimei’s different attitude toward her today, Xu Niannian was relieved inside and chatty, sweet as a jujube just as Yang Cuihua would say.
