Chapter 1312 - 1312 Harmony
1312 Harmony
w.a.n.g Yunzhong didnt stop what he was doing. He turned to look at the old lady and said, Hes not coming.
What do you mean? The old ladys expression turned cold. She elbowed w.a.n.g Yunzhong and frowned. Didnt I ask you to call him? Why cant you call him back?
Its New Years Day today. If he doesnt come back, where will he go?
w.a.n.g Yunzhong couldnt help but sigh. If hes not coming back, he must be staying at Chunfens for the holidays. Where else can he go? I called him, but he said he didnt want to come back.
Only then did the old lady understand w.a.n.g Yunzhongs words. Her grandson must have lived at Jiang Chunfens place for a long time and became distant from them.
Otherwise, why would he not come back for such an important festival?
Look, I told you not to let Zichen move over back then, but you didnt listen. Now, hes not even coming home! The old lady felt uncomfortable and muttered.
w.a.n.g Yunzhong knew that the old lady missed her grandson. It was mainly because w.a.n.g Zichen rarely came back during this period. Old people had many thoughts, especially someone like the old lady, who could be more crooked than others in everything.
Mom, Chunfens house is also Zichens home, w.a.n.g Yunzhong explained. Besides, Zichen said he would come back to see Grandpa and Grandma tomorrow. He just feels that the holidays are too cold for Chunfen and Zimeng. Theres nothing wrong with feeling heartache for his mother.
How could the old lady listen? Even if her two daughters-in-law were pregnant now, who knew if they would give birth to a boy or a girl? w.a.n.g Zichen was the only grandson in the w.a.n.g family, so she naturally had to treasure him.
Especially since they were not living together now, she was afraid that Jiang Chunfen would say something unpleasant in front of w.a.n.g Zichen. When the time came, he would not have his own opinions. If he believed everything the adults said, what would happen?
Youre the only one whos not anxious and angry. When you dont have your son anymore, lets see who you want him from! the old lady muttered fiercely.
w.a.n.g Yunzhong snorted indifferently. How can I lose my son? Even if hes been living outside, hes still my son. Alright, hell be back tomorrow. He didnt say that he wouldnt be back.
With that, w.a.n.g Yunzhong carried the tea set out of the kitchen. The old lady glared at w.a.n.g Yunzhong from behind and muttered to herself, Everyone in the family is heartless. No wonder Zichen isnt willing to come back.
At Jiang Chunfens house
w.a.n.g Zichen was reading a novel on the sofa in the living room while w.a.n.g Zimeng was playing Lego on the floor.
Brother, Dad didnt call you to ask you to go back? w.a.n.g Zimeng suddenly looked up at w.a.n.g Zichen and said.
w.a.n.g Zichen answered without looking up, Why should I go back?
w.a.n.g Zimeng: Its a festival today. Didnt Dad ask you?
w.a.n.g Zichen pursed his lips and said casually, He did. Called me early in the morning, but I said I wouldnt go visit today. Ill go back tomorrow.
w.a.n.g Zimeng raised her eyebrows. Grandma will be angry.
Anyway, I dont want to go back. w.a.n.g Zichen sat up and looked at w.a.n.g Zimeng. It must be boring at home this year. If both aunts wont go, only Uncles family is left. I only saw the wife he married once at the wedding and havent seen her since. And that Qianqian. Im annoyed just by looking at her. If I can avoid going back, I dont even want to go back tomorrow.
w.a.n.g Zimeng smiled and nodded. I understand you. Moreover, you have so much freedom with Mom. At least she wont force you to study all the time. At least you have some time of your own.
Thats right. w.a.n.g Zichen snorted. This way, my results will improve instead. Before, Dad, Grandpa, and Grandma forced me to study. My results didnt improve at all.
As soon as he finished speaking, w.a.n.g Zichen looked at the time. It was almost noon. He couldnt help but shout into the kitchen, Mom! Why isnt Uncle Qiao here yet?
When Jiang Chunfen heard the commotion, she poked her head out of the kitchen and looked at the two children. Dont be anxious. He said that he would be here before noon, so he will be. Lets wait a while longer.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the doorbell rang.
w.a.n.g Zichen and w.a.n.g Zimengs eyes lit up. They knew that Qiao Yuan was there and stood up to open the door.
Seeing this, Jiang Chunfen couldnt help but smile helplessly and come out of the kitchen.
Uncle Qiao, happy New Years Day!
It was Qiao Yuan. He was wearing a black woolen coat. As soon as he entered, he brought in a cold aura. However, the smile on Qiao Yuans face was exceptionally warm. He was holding gifts in his hands and handed them to the two children. Happy New Years Day. Its a gift from Uncle Qiao.
Thank you, Uncle Qiao. The two of them smiled and thanked him in unison.
Seeing this, Jiang Chunfen couldnt help but look at Qiao Yuan and say, Just spoil them. You always find an excuse to buy things for them.
Qiao Yuan naturally took off his coat and hung it at the side. When he heard this, he smiled and said, As long as the children are happy. Besides, today is New Years Day. I cant come empty-handed. There have to be New Years gifts.
You have too many excuses. Do you have to give them something for the Spring Festival as well then? Jiang Chunfen asked.
The smile on Qiao Yuans face deepened. I wont give them gifts for the Spring Festival. I have to give red packets instead.
Qiao Yuan had successfully infiltrated Jiang Chunfens inner circle, it seemed. Putting aside the fact that w.a.n.g Zimeng was sensible, w.a.n.g Zichen had already completely accepted him.
Of course, this was directly related to his efforts. He did not completely treat the two children as children. Most of the time, he interacted as a friend.
As a result, w.a.n.g Zichen didnt tell Jiang Chunfen some things, but he was willing to tell Qiao Yuan.
He had his system of interacting with w.a.n.g Zichen and w.a.n.g Zimeng. He would not cross the line too much, but he was closely related to them.
Compared to this, Xu Qianqian was on a completely different level.
This way, Jiang Chunfens deepest concerns were dispelled. At first, she was most worried that w.a.n.g Zichen would object to her finding someone else. Now, seeing that he was so intimate with Qiao Yuan, Jiang Chunfen could finally devote herself to her relations.h.i.+p with Qiao Yuan with no worries.
Bai Zhous apartment was probably the liveliest place on New Years Day today.
The few people who did not know about the New Years Day culinary compet.i.tion were also forced to take part.
Bai Zhou initially thought that after the number of people increased, he would gain some advantage. Unexpectedly, these people knew how to cook.
After this period of hard work, the two dishes you trained hard for can barely be eaten! Chi Lian teased Bai Zhou.
Bai Zhou stared at Xiao Zhen and asked tentatively, Xiao Zhen, you can make those two dishes simply even with your feet. They shouldnt be bad, right?
Xiao Zhen was strict. When he heard this, he only glanced at Bai Zhou and answered calmly, Even if its not delicious, it shouldnt be worse than yours. I heard that Chi Lian tried your dishes and almost left this beautiful world.
