"Hey, Qinghe, my dear brother, we could let the two kids get engaged first, to at least have a formal agreent." Du Chang, fearful that his future granddaughter-in-law might slip away, took the opportunity to speak eagerly.
Xu Qinghe had drunk quite a bit, but he was becoming more alert. He quickly shook his head and said, "Uncle Du, let’s let the two kids get to know each other first. I’ve heard that Yicheng has a dad, right?"
Xu Qinghe was an honest man, but that didn’t an he was foolish. Over the past two years of dealing with the Du Family, he hadn’t seen Pei Yicheng’s father once, even though Nianhua and Yicheng had been seeing each other for almost a year. This absence made him feel unsatisfied.
In his heart, his daughter was the best and most wonderful. If Pei Yicheng’s father didn’t like her, he wasn’t willing to let his daughter marry out.
If it weren’t for the fact that Pei Yicheng treated his daughter well, and furthermore, helped the Xu Family, the most important reason being that his daughter liked him, Xu Qinghe wouldn’t be able to suppress his idea of kicking Pei Yicheng out.
"My dad has been urging to bring Nianhua ho."
Pei Yicheng, at this mont, certainly couldn’t hinder his grandfather Du Chang. If it weren’t for Xu Nianhua being in school, he would have taken her to get the marriage certificate right away.
"Look, Nianhua is so outstanding. My son-in-law must be blind to dislike her!" Du Chang, upon hearing Pei Yicheng’s words, was imdiately delighted and explained to Xu Qinghe, "My son-in-law is busy."
Du Chang ant to say that Pei Guozhong had a large business that in the future could provide so support to the young couple.
Who knew, before he could finish speaking, Xu Qinghe said, "Uncle Du, you tell , no matter how busy he is, can he not care about his son’s life-long event?"
Du Chang: "..."
Xu Qinghe successfully stalled this topic, even with Pei Yicheng’s reassurance, but Xu Qinghe stuck to his one argunt: Nianhua is still in school, let them spend more ti together.
Night fell, the sky was dark outside, and the road was long, so Du Chang and the others were left to rest at the house. The Xu Family had built a new house with plenty of rooms. Pei Yicheng and Ling Dong slept in a guest room on the second floor, and Du Chang slept in a guest room downstairs.
"Yicheng, what you said earlier—was it true?" Xu Nianhua stealthily asked while making the bed.
"It’s true."
Pei Yicheng thought about it and said, "Yining told he wanted to et you, but since you ca ho, I didn’t ntion it to you. Maybe we could et after the New Year?"
"But doesn’t he dislike ?" Xu Nianhua raised an eyebrow.
"How could my Nianhua not be liked?" Pei Yicheng was worried Xu Nianhua might misunderstand, so he said, "My relationship with him isn’t great. What Uncle said today is correct; if he doesn’t make an appearance, it might seem like he’s ashad to et you. Don’t worry, he’ll definitely see how good you are."
Xu Nianhua bead a smile, scanning Pei Yicheng’s face, she asked, "Yicheng, are you hiding sothing from ?"
Xu Nianhua folded her arms across her chest. She knew Pei Yicheng’s father previously didn’t like her. Even after she saved Yining once, his attitude was clear; he was grateful for her life-saving act, but nothing more.
His father suddenly changed his attitude, so sothing unknown must have happened.
"Maybe, he thought it through after being ill?" Pei Yicheng said uncertainly, seeing Xu Nianhua’s inquisitive stance, he explained, "Just a few days ago, he suddenly had high blood pressure, nearly had a stroke. Fortunately, he was rescued in ti and is still in the hospital recovering."
"Was it just two days before we ca back?"
