Chapter 12
Hurry Up, I Want My Great-grandson
In the study…
“Grandpa, when did you arrive?” Chu Liyuan was the first to speak.
“You brat, you still have the cheek to say that. You didn’t even tell me about such a big thing like marriage. The news would have made me very happy!” Chu Zhiyuan slapped Chu Liyuan’s head.
“I haven’t had the time,” Chu Liyuan retorted.
“No matter what, it’s a good thing that you’re married. It’s just that this la.s.s is a little young,” Chu Zhiyuan said bluntly.
“Grandpa, are you saying that I’m too old?” Chu Liyuan asked unhappily.
Why did even his own grandfather think he was old? Was he really that old?
He was really unhappy.
“Ahem, well… As long as your feelings for her are there, everything else will be a small problem. Moreover, after spending two days with this la.s.s, I really like her. You have to treat her well. Don’t always act like people have to maintain a distance from you. Girls have to be coaxed, especially young ones. Understand?” Chu Zhiyuan reminded.
He naturally knew very well what his grandson was like. He could not lose the granddaughter-in-law that he had finally obtained!
“And… that…”
“What?” Chu Liyuan looked at his grandfather’s secretive expression, as if he was afraid that others would overhear.
Chu Zhiyuan went up to Chu Liyuan and whispered, “That! Buck up!”
“What?” Chu Liyuan was confused.
Why was Grandpa still talking to him in riddles?
“What do you mean ‘what’? Of course it’s that! Let me tell you, I’m not young anymore. I want my great-grandson!”
Chu Zhiyuan was really disappointed that his silly grandson was not anxious at all—he should take a look at how old he already was.
Only then did Chu Liyuan understand that the “that” that his grandfather was referring to was…
“Grandpa, Jian Jian is still young!” Chu Liyuan said shyly.
Grandpa was too much. How long had it been since they got married?
Before he got married, he was urged to get married. Now that he was married, he was urged to have children.
It was endless.
“Jian Jian is young, but you’re not young anymore! Besides, the recovery period is shorter when women give birth at a younger age!… So, you better buck up!”
This brat was actually not in a hurry at all. He had been waiting for his great-grandson for donkey’s years.
“Li Garden is too deserted. It’ll be more lively with children running around the courtyard!”
If he did not spur this brat on, he did not know when he would be able to have a great-grandson.
“Alright, I won’t get in the way of the two of you… Hehe! I’ll go back today.”
When he got in the house and saw Jian Dan… “Little Jian! I’ll be returning to the family residence today. I won’t get in the way of you and Liyuan… The two of you…” As he spoke, he looked at Chu Liyuan—who had followed him—and gave him a knowing look!
“What?” Jian Dan looked at the two of them strangely and asked.
These two people looked so strange. There must be some unspeakable secret.
“Nothing! I’ll come and hang out with you when I have time.” Chu Zhiyuan whispered to Jian Dan. “I’m leaving. If you have time, bring Little Jian back to the family residence to visit me!”
“Don’t worry! I’ll definitely go there often!” Before Chu Liyuan could say anything, Jian Dan agreed.
The outcome of this afternoon’s compet.i.tion had yet to be decided; there must be a rematch.
“Alright, I’m leaving. You guys should hurry up and go eat! You still have things to do after dinner.” Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Liyuan meaningfully. Chu Liyuan subconsciously looked away. Chu Zhiyuan looked at his grandson’s innocent expression and laughed before leaving…
“Uncle, do you still have something to do tonight?” Jian Dan looked at Chu Liyuan and asked curiously.
“Cough cough…” Chu Liyuan coughed unnaturally. “Erm, let’s eat first!” Chu Liyuan walked around Jian Dan and sat at the dining table first.
Seeing this, Jian Dan also sat down… Looking at the table full of delicious food, Jian Dan ignored the question just now. “Wow… so much delicious food!” Jian Dan picked up her chopsticks and got a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs. Just as she was about to put it into her mouth, Chu Liyuan took it away.
“What was that for?”
She was about to put it in her mouth and it just disappeared just like that?
“You’ve just recovered. You can’t eat such greasy food! Have some porridge!” As he spoke, he scooped a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of Jian Dan.
Jian Dan looked at the bowl of porridge in front of her and looked at Chu Liyuan unhappily. “This porridge is so bland. My mouth is extremely bitter after taking the medicine!” Jian Dan pouted and complained.
Seeing Chu Liyuan’s indifferent expression, Jian Dan changed her tactic. “Uncle, I’ll just eat one piece, okay?” Jian Dan looked at Chu Liyuan with her big, doe eyes and wheedled.
For the sake of that piece of meat, Jian Dan was going all out.
Chu Liyuan looked into Jian Dan’s eyes and immediately felt that something was amiss. He quickly averted his gaze and recalled what his grandfather had said to him just now. His ears turned hot.
When Jian Dan saw Chu Liyuan’s expression, she felt that the effect of this move was not bad, so she struck while the iron was hot. “Okay? Uncle?” She even tugged at Chu Liyuan’s big hand.
This made Chu Liyuan a little overwhelmed. He immediately surrendered. “You’re only allowed to eat one piece!”
Why was he unable to resist this la.s.s at all?
“Okay!” Jian Dan returned to the dining table happily. She picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs and placed it in her mouth. “Mmm! It’s so yummy!”
Looking at Jian Dan’s satisfied expression, Chu Liyuan could not help but smile…
