Chapter 112: Chapter 112: Sounds Sowhat Familiar
Yu Cheng slightly raised his eyebrows. He was still a well-behaved student.
Jiang Dashan, seeing that his manners were thorough and proper, had an even better impression of him. “Kid, what’s your na? How did you fall into the icy river?”
“Grandpa, my na is Yu Cheng. I didn’t know the river wasn’t frozen solid, so when I walked halfway across, the ice cracked and I fell in,” Yu Cheng answered each question.
Sun Lixia, who had found it difficult to interject, imdiately showed concern upon hearing this. “Then you mustn’t be so reckless in the future. Even if the rivers here are frozen solid, they can’t bear the weight of a person.”
Yu Cheng responded with a faint “Hmm,” not fond of this kind of calculating concern.
Jiang Mianmian, however, tilted her head slightly, finding the na “Yu Cheng” sowhat familiar.
...
She should have heard it sowhere since there aren’t many with the surna “Yu,” but she just couldn’t rember.
At this mont, Jiang Changhai, while picking his teeth, said, “Kid, our family na is Jiang. You can just call Uncle Jiang. Where do you live? I’ll send you back later.”
“I ca from the Capital City to find relatives,” Yu Cheng said in a low voice.
From the Capital City?!
That sentence got all the Jiang family mbers collectively excited, their gazes turning fervent as they looked at him.
Jiang Dashan reassessed Yu Cheng, no wonder his manners and actions were so proper. Such a child clearly could not be raised by just any ordinary family.
Sun Lixia was internally frustrated, wondering why it wasn’t her family who had saved him!
What kind of dumb luck had this lazy Jiang Changhai stumbled on?
No, she couldn’t let this opportunity slip by. A person from the Capital City, even just a bit of association, would surely benefit them for quite so ti!
She must treat him better, hopefully, allowing Zhiwen and Zhiwu to beco good friends with him, so they could always bask in his reflected glory.
Zhang Guihua wasn’t as upset anymore about the food Yu Cheng had eaten, as he was a compatriot from the Capital City and deserved a proper welco.
anwhile, Jiang Changhe and Zhao Xiaojuan had no other ulterior motives, simply curious about a fellow from the Capital City, wondering if they got to eat at and rice every day.
Jiang Changhai was very pleased with himself, feeling that his daughter had great fortune.
To randomly co across a young master from the Capital City who had fallen into the water was just incredibly lucky.
So, in high spirits, he asked, “Where are your relatives? I’ll take you to them later.”
“I haven’t found them yet,” Yu Cheng pursed his lips, his gaze showing a barely noticeable trace of desolation.
The straight-talking Jiang Changhai, of course, failed to notice and asked again, “What about the people who ca with you? Where are they?”
“I ca by myself; there’s nobody else.”
Yu Cheng spoke lightly, but he shocked Jiang Changhai, “You ca here from the Capital City all by yourself? You’re really brave, how old are you? Do your parents know?”
The Jiang family was equally incredulous; even taking a train from the Capital City here would probably take several days!
Hearing Jiang Changhai ntion his family, Yu Cheng sneered inwardly, but outwardly remained as calm as a gentle breeze. “I’m twelve years old. My family knows I’ve co.”
“Twelve years old?”
The eyes of the Jiang family mbers widened even more. Such a young child, what were his family thinking?!
To let him travel such a long distance all by himself!
And he must be close to 1.7 ters tall, right?
Especially the old lady and Zhao Xiaojuan, who had helped change his clothes yesterday, knew that although the boy was thin, he was very sturdy.
