In fact, both Old Ladies had reached a consensus in their hearts and were just waiting for Yu Songyu to nod in agreement.
Yu Songyu was munching on a large radish, half-listening to their idle chatter when she suddenly found herself mentioned. Startled, the radish slipped from her hands and fell onto the kang.
“Huh? Oh, living together sounds lively and nice! Let’s make do tonight, and I’ll get Ox Cart to come over tomorrow to help with the luggage!”
As dusk approached, she thought there was no rush on this matter; she still wanted to plan a date with Yang Qinghe!
Indeed, our Xiao Yu is quite thoughtful!
“Yes, yes!”
The two Old Ladies unanimously praised Yu Songyu.
Yu Songyu silently picked up the radish, thinking, wasn’t this all decided among you two? Goodness, so I’m just a bystander in this arrangement, huh?
“Little Xiao Yu, if Aunt Wang leaves, then... then I...”
Zhao Lianzhi saw that the two Old Ladies were enjoying their conversation while she felt a mix of emotions. One was a grandmother, the other a grandmotherly figure; it made sense for them to live together. But she and Xiao He were outsiders—what should they do?
“Just come along! Life in town is definitely better than in the village. Plus, it’ll be easier for Xiao He to go to school in the future! As for you, just take care of them; it’s not too hard. You can earn some money each month to help Xiao He out later!”
With that, the house would be left just for herself. She could invite Li Xiuzhen over to keep her company. If convenient, Yang Qinghe and Wang Jianjun could also come over, but it was true that it might lead to gossip.
“Alright then, I’ll go along!”
Zhao Lianzhi felt tears welling up; she was genuinely afraid. After so many years of hardship, just when things were getting better for a few days, would she be abandoned? What would happen to her and Xiao He?
The employer was a good person who provided food and shelter and paid wages. That meant she and Xiao He would have some security in the future.
Wiping her eyes with her sleeve, Zhao Lianzhi managed a smile.
“Then I’ll cook!”
Watching Zhao Lianzhi’s retreating figure, Yu Songyu couldn’t help but think that giving someone fish was not as good as teaching them how to fish. Paying her wages was indeed meant to help her save a little for the future; perhaps this way, she could feel more at ease!
Just then, Yang Qinghe and Li Xiuzhen entered the room together.
"Are you done with work? Where's Jian Jun?"
Yu Songyu smiled sweetly at Yang Qinghe before turning to Li Xiuzhen.
"Oh, he got his Cotton Shoes wet and went back first! Oh? Grandma Wu, what brings you here?"
Li Xiuzhen had met Wu Grandma when she was in town with Yu Songyu last time.
"Ahem! Let me introduce everyone properly! This is my dear grandmother, and this is my dear maternal grandmother! This is my best friend, Ms. Li Xiuzhen, and this is Yang Qinghe!"
After hearing Yu Songyu's introduction, Yang Qinghe frowned. Why was he just a name in her introduction? Did that mean he was just a name in her heart?
"Hello, Grandma! Hello, Grandma!"
Yang Qinghe and Li Xiuzhen greeted the two elderly women along with Yu Songyu. It was easy to guess that this girl had made another connection.
"Xiao Yu, come out for a moment!"
"Oh!"
Yu Songyu didn't think much of it, put on her shoes, and followed Yang Qinghe into another room.
"Old Sister, that young man..."
Seeing how impressive Yang Qinghe looked, Grandma wanted to ask if she could match him up with her granddaughter.
Grandma's eyes narrowed as she exchanged a knowing glance with her mother-in-law and lowered her voice.
"Our Son-in-law!"
She spoke with such pride.
"What? Oh my, they really are a perfect match!"
The two grandmothers shared the same sentiment, their hands clasped together as they smiled widely.
