“Young fellow, why are you so focused on figuring out who your sister is friends with? Didn’t you say that you came over to accompany me? Was that a lie?” Grandma Jian asked. She was deliberately teasing Jian Yujie.

Jian Yujie paused. For a moment, he looked like a deflated ball. He had to swallow down all of his questions and sit down.

He hadn’t said that he came over to accompany his grandma… He just wanted to see Yiling…

Yiling had knitted a sweater for him. He hadn’t yet gotten the opportunity to personally say thank you to her!

Finally, Jian Shuxing couldn’t help but say something, “Mother, where is Yiling? She has been living here for quite some time already. Has she gotten used to it? We came here today to see her.”

It was obvious that Jian Shuxing and the rest of them had put effort into talking to Jian Yunnao. As they talked about Jian Yiling, Jian Yunnao didn’t become angry or disgusted.

‘This should be considered an improvement right?’ Grandma Jian wondered to herself.

However, in actual fact, whilst persuasion had accounted for a small part of this, the larger part was due to the progression in finding a doctor to operate on his hand.

Once again, Grandma Jian replied slowly, “She’s gotten used to it. I know how to take care of children. If you’re doubting me, why don’t you look at you and your brothers?”

Grandma Jian wasn’t intentionally scolding the couple. However, to a certain extent, she wanted the couple to stop worrying about both children so much. If they did that, they would be incapable of taking care of even one child.

From the look on Wen Nuan’s face, Grandma Jian could tell that she hadn’t slept well in the past few days. She had been married into the family for almost thirty years. However, this was the first time that Grandma Jian had seen her so stressed.

“Mother, I didn’t mean that. I know that you can take good care of Yiling,” Jian Shuxing replied.

“Okay, okay. She’ll be back soon. We planned to have a BBQ today. She went to buy ingredients.” Grandma Jian answered. She finally stopped going in circles with her responses.

Jian Yujie was quite curious, “Grandma, why did you think of having a BBQ?”

His grandparents didn’t seem like people who would like to have an outdoor BBQ.

“What’s the matter? Am I not allowed to try something new?” Grandma Jian replied. She enjoyed teasing her grandson.

Although there were three grandsons in front of her, only Jian Yujie was fun to tease.

“Grandma, I’m not saying that. Don’t falsely accuse me.”

Jian Yujie desperately shook his head.

“Okay okay. This suggestion was proposed by Yu Xi. The Old Jian Residence and Yu Residence are right next to each other. As we don’t have many people living with us, we thought that it’d be boring to just have a normal meal. Therefore, Yu Xi proposed to come over and have a barbecue together. It would be fun to have everyone together. Your grandfather and I found this suggestion quite interesting. That’s why we asked them to go and prepare for it.”

‘Ahhh, so that’s what Grandma Jian had meant when she said that Jian Yiling had gone out with friends. It turned out that her friend was Yu Xi. They had both gone out to purchase fresh ingredients for the barbecue.’

Speaking of the devil.

Whilst Grandma Jian was speaking, Jian Yiling arrived home. There were two men that trailed behind her.

One of them wore light-colored leisure clothes and the other wore a black s.h.i.+rt with dark gray pants.

One was Yu Xi and the other was Zhai Yunsheng.

Jian Yiling had come back empty-handed. However, the two men that had followed her were carrying several bags of food.

It wasn’t surprising to see Yu Xi. However, most people in the room were a little shocked to see Zhai Yunsheng.

Even Grandma Jian didn’t know that Zhai Yunsheng had gone to buy ingredients with Jian Yiling and Yu Xi.

However, the focus of the Jian Shuxing family was on their daughter Jian Yiling.

Against the backdrop of two men that were both about 1.8 meters tall, she looked particularly small.

They could see her young face and clear eyes.

They hadn’t changed from back then… Back when she went to visit Jian Yunnao at the hospital. Just like back then, she remained quiet.
