Su Yayan smiled as well. “My mother thinks that newborn babies are all the same. Since they are hard to tell apart, their clothes can be mixed together. When my brother
was young, my mother even bought him a dress to wear!”
Brother Su, whose dark history had been dug out, “…” Can you not talk about such an embarra.s.sing matter? Don’t I want my face?
When Qin Xueru heard Su Yayan’s words, she tried to imagine how Su Yuxuan would look in a dress and was amused once again.
“Alright, I’ll call them later to thank them.”
“Sure.” Su Yayan helped Qin Xueru into the hall. She looked around and asked softly, “Where’s Grandpa? Why don’t I see him?”
“He’s fis.h.i.+ng in the backyard. I heard him arguing with his old friends in the backyard just now. I heard from the servants nearby that they were almost fighting.”
“Fighting?” Huo Chenhuan was a little surprised. He wasn’t surprised that Old Master Cheng had quarreled with someone, but he was surprised that he had almost fought
with someone in the backyard. Why was his family so calm and even smiling?
As if Su Yayan could read Huo Chenhuan’s mind, she couldn’t help but laugh. “Those who were invited by my grandfather to go fis.h.i.+ng in the backyard are mostly elderly
people around here. They’ve been friends with my grandfather for decades. It’s normal for them to quarrel, but they won’t really fight.”
Su Yayan then turned to Qin Xueru and asked, “Why did they quarrel again today?”
Qin Xueru looked back and inched closer to Su Yayan. “They were fis.h.i.+ng all morning. The rest of them caught one or two, except Old Master.”
Su Yayan understood right away. Among Old Master Cheng’s old friends, there was Grandpa Li who had known him the longest and loved to argue with him the most.
Usually, he would argue with him.
The Old Master had not caught a single fish this morning, so this old man must have poked fun at her grandfather.
Her grandfather had a bad temper. Wouldn’t he start quarreling with him with this?
As the two of them were talking, they heard a loud voice from the backyard. “No need! Am I lacking in food here? Do I need to care about a thumb-sized fish like yours?”
“Old Cheng, you can’t say that. Didn’t you say this morning that your precious granddaughter is coming back and that you wanted to catch a big fish to nourish her body? I
only wanted to share one with you because you didn’t catch a fish for the whole morning. Don’t be ungrateful.”
“Get lost! How could I not know what kind of person you are? Those two little fish are not enough to make a fish soup. I don’t care about it!”
After another minute or two, Old Master Cheng ran back from the backyard angrily with a fis.h.i.+ng rod in his hand.
The old master’s expression froze when he saw Su Yayan and the rest standing in the hall. He cleared his throat and asked, “W-When… did you arrive?”
“| just arrived.” Su Yayan reacted quickly and grinned. “Grandfather, did you go fis.h.i.+ng again?”
Old Master Cheng subconsciously tightened his grip on his fis.h.i.+ng rod and looked embarra.s.sed. “I thought that since it’s rare for you guys to come back, I would go to the
small pond in our backyard to catch some fish to add to your meals. Who knew that my luck today was not good…”
Old Master Cheng paused. He felt that it wasn’t that he was unlucky today, but that the fish in his pond had been fished out by his old friends, so he couldn’t add food for his
precious granddaughter!
He regretted it as soon as he thought about it. If he had known that this would happen, he would have fished alone. Perhaps he would have fished until the bucket was full..
