Chapter 431: Chapter 430: The Bold Young Girl
Jiang Mianmian had no such worries, and even thought the old man was going to lead her by hand, so she affectionately and proactively reached out to hold Elder Yu’s large hand: “Okay.”
Elder Yu didn’t expect her to be so bold, and after a mont of surprise, he took her small hand and walked toward the house.
Looking at the old and young hand in hand, anyone who didn’t know them would think Jiang Mianmian was Elder Yu’s own granddaughter.
Yu Cheng, the legitimate grandson, was instead left behind, walking slowly with his long legs.
After entering the house, Elder Yu took a seat on the sofa and said, “Co, Mianmian, sit here. Grandpa Yu has prepared candies, pastries, and fruits for you. Help yourself to whatever you like, and don’t be shy, just like it’s your own ho.”
“Thank you, Grandpa Yu.” Jiang Mianmian happily sat down next to him and began eating a slice of waterlon that had been cut into small pieces.
The waterlon had just been taken out of the refrigerator and was cool and thirst-quenching.
Yu Cheng sat down on a small sofa next to her, grabbed a slice of waterlon, and started eating it in big bites.
This ti, Elder Yu wasn’t surprised and kindly asked, “How long will you be staying in Capital City this ti?”
“Grandpa Yu, I can stay for more than ten days this ti.”
“Good. In these ten days, let Yu Cheng show you around. Go see the palace, the flag-raising ceremony. There’s also a lot of delicious food in Capital City—let Yu Cheng take you to try them all.”
“Mhm, okay, thank you, Grandpa Yu. I’ve seen the flag-raising ceremony in my textbooks, and I’ve longed to see it for a long ti,” said Jiang Mianmian with an innocent longing like a true child, very supportive.
After eating a piece of waterlon, Jiang Mianmian looked at the telephone placed beside the living room sofa and said, “Grandpa Yu, I want to call my dad to let him know I’m safe.”
Elder Yu then asked, “Do you rember the phone number?”
“I rember it, Grandpa Yu.”
“Go ahead, then.”
Jiang Mianmian picked up the phone and skillfully dialed the transportation factory’s number.
Once the call got through, Jiang Mianmian spoke very politely, “Hello, auntie, I’m Jiang Changhai’s daughter, Jiang Mianmian. Could you please find Jiang Changhai and ask him to co to the phone?”
“Alright, thank you.” After receiving a response, Jiang Mianmian politely expressed her thanks.
It didn’t take long for Jiang Changhai’s excited voice to co through the handset.
“Hello, my girl, have you arrived in Capital City? How is it? Are you tired? Was everything okay on the way?” Jiang Changhai asked in a flurry.
“Dad, I’ve already arrived at Grandpa Yu’s house. I’m not tired at all, and there were no problems on the way.”
“Ah, that’s good. Have a great ti, my girl, and don’t be stingy with money. Buy whatever you like; your dad is earning plenty,” he said.
“Mhm, okay,” Jiang Mianmian said, holding the phone with a happy expression on her face.
Elder Yu could vaguely hear Jiang Changhai’s voice from the phone, and watching this scene of fatherly love and filial piety, .
Jiang Mianmian talked with Jiang Changhai for a while before reluctantly hanging up the phone.
“Are you feeling hosick, Mianmian?” Elder Yu asked with a smile, seeing her sowhat downcast aspect.
“A little. I miss my mom and dad. This is the first ti I’ve been away from ho since I grew up,” Jiang Mianmian nodded and answered truthfully.
“Don’t worry, Mianmian, have a happy ti in Capital City for a few days, and in a few days, you can go ho and be with your parents,” Elder Yu said, patting Jiang Mianmian on the shoulder to comfort her.
“Yeah, I know, Grandpa Yu.”
Jiang Mianmian, not a real child, soon adjusted her mood.
Just then another call ca through, this one was for Elder Yu.
