Chapter 1019 [Xiangmi 1 Life 1 28]
The Qin family's old house, a simple and solemn building, stood there quietly. The sunlight sprinkled on the blue-gray tile roof, reflecting a faint light.
Youyou and Zhou Shengchen carried a bunch of things and slowly walked to the door of the old house. They knocked gently on the slightly old wooden door, and the door slowly opened, revealing the kind face of Mrs. Qin.
Old Mrs. Qin was lying leisurely on a recliner, enjoying the warm sunshine. Her face was filled with tranquility and satisfaction, as if time had slowed down here.
"Grandma, I'm here to see you." Zhou Shengchen's voice broke the tranquility of the old house, and his voice revealed his deep respect and love for Old Mrs. Qin.
When Mrs. Qin heard the voice, she slowly raised her head and her eyes fell on Zhou Shengchen and Youyou. When she saw Youyou, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. This should be her grandson's wife.
"Xiaochen is here. Is this my granddaughter-in-law?" Old Mrs. Qin's voice was full of kindness.
Youyou smiled shyly and said softly, "Hello, grandma. You can just call me Youyou."
"Okay, Youyou, come here and let grandma take a good look at you." Old Mrs. Qin greeted Youyou warmly. She stood up from the recliner, walked quickly towards Youyou and held her hand.
Youyou was infected by Old Lady Qin's enthusiasm and was no longer restrained. She followed Old Lady Qin into the inner room.
The layout of the inner room is simple and warm, with some old photos hanging on the wall, recording every detail of Mrs. Qin and her family. Mrs. Qin walked to a cabinet, opened the door, and took out a bunch of snacks from it.
"Youyou, this is Xiaochen's favorite snack when he was a child. Take a look, do you like it?" Old Mrs. Qin handed the snacks to Youyou, her eyes full of anticipation.
Youyou looked at the popping candies, figs, and spicy strips in her hands, which were her favorite snacks when she was a child, and she couldn't help but smile happily.
"I love it. Thank you, grandma." Youyou said. She felt the love and warmth from Grandma Qin.
"Eat more if you like. Grandma will take care of you." Old Mrs. Qin looked at Youyou with a smile on her face, her eyes full of love and care.
Youyou nodded happily, with a piece of popping candy in her mouth, and said incoherently: "Yeah, okay grandma."
Old Mrs. Qin turned and walked into the inner room, while Youyou couldn't wait to open the popping candy in her hand, poured out a few and put them into her mouth. The popping candy popped in her mouth, and the familiar taste instantly filled her mouth, making her feel like she was back in her childhood.
Zhou Shengchen watched Youyou eat with gusto, and couldn't help but smile, saying softly: "Your grandma gave it to you."
Youyou raised her head, the popping candy in her mouth still jumping happily. She smiled and replied, "Yes, grandma said you loved to eat it when you were a child."
Zhou Shengchen's thoughts were brought back to his childhood by Youyou's words. He recalled the days at his grandmother's house, and a happy smile appeared on his face. He said, "Yeah, when I was a child, I didn't get candy at home. Whenever I came to my grandmother's house, she would secretly give me candy, and she would prepare a lot for me every time."
After hearing what Zhou Shengchen said, Youyou couldn't help but find it a little funny and said jokingly, "I didn't realize that you were like this when you were a child, Chen."
At this moment, Mrs. Qin slowly walked out from the inner room, holding a box that looked quite simple and quaint in her hands. Although the appearance of the box was slightly old, it revealed a sense of vicissitudes of time.
Old Mrs. Qin smiled and looked at Youyou kindly, and said softly, "Youyou, come here."
When Youyou heard her grandmother's call, she hurried to the front of Mrs. Qin. Mrs. Qin carefully opened the box and saw a beautiful bracelet inside. The bracelet was emerald green and warm in color, as if emitting a faint fragrance.
Old Lady Qin gently took out the bracelet, put it on Youyou's wrist, and said, "This is a gift from grandma. I hope you like it."
Youyou looked down at the bracelet on her wrist and was touched. She said quickly, "Grandma, this gift is too expensive. I really can't accept it."
Old Mrs. Qin smiled and shook her head, saying, "Silly child, if you don't accept it, it means you don't like your grandma anymore."
Seeing this, Zhou Shengchen on the side also agreed, "Youyou, just accept it. This is grandma's dowry. It means a lot."
After listening to Zhou Shengchen's words, Youyou hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and said, "Thank you, grandma. I like this bracelet very much."
When Mrs. Qin saw Youyou accept the bracelet, her smile became even brighter. She continued with joy, "Youyou, grandma thinks you and Xiaochen are a good match. When are you two going to get married?"
Youyou smiled shyly and replied, "Grandma, we have to wait for my parents to come over. They are too busy with work recently and can't spare the time to come over."
Old Mrs. Qin nodded quickly to show her understanding, and then said enthusiastically: "Oh, so, there's no need to rush. You can stay at grandma's place for a few days. Grandma will prepare a clean and comfortable room for you so that you can live comfortably."
Youyou looked at Mrs. Qin gratefully and said with a smile, "Okay, grandma, thank you."
……
At the same time, in the living room of the Lin family, Lin's father, Lin's mother and other relatives were sitting together.
Uncle Lin spoke first, "Zhendong, Youyou seems to have developed a crush on the heir of the Zhou family. However, the Zhou family is very sophisticated! Although they are an old family, they are still far behind our Lin family. Although our Lin family does not value family background, the Zhou family is indeed not suitable for Youyou."
After hearing this, Father Lin nodded thoughtfully. At this time, Lin Junkai interrupted and said, "Dad, Zhou Shengchen is indeed quite good if we only look at other aspects. However, when it comes to the degree of matching with my younger sister, he is still a little inferior."
Then, Lin Chenyu also echoed: "Yes, Dad, look at our little sister, she is outstanding. Moreover, Zhou Shengchen, in addition to his own good conditions, the Zhou family is quite chaotic."
"I think Zhou Shengchen is a nice person. He treats our little sister very well." Lin Xinyu said with a smile, seeming to have a good impression of Zhou Shengchen.
Aunt Lin nodded thoughtfully, agreeing, "Well, Xinyu is right. Regardless of the Zhou family's situation, Zhou Shengchen is indeed someone worthy of trust."
Mother Lin also smiled and interrupted, "Besides, this child is also very handsome, with a good-looking appearance. He is likable just by looking at him. I accept this son-in-law!"
Hearing what Lin's mother said, Lin Zhendong on the side shouted helplessly: "Wife~"
Lin Junkai and Lin Xinyu also shouted in unison: "Mom~"
