Chapter 420 - If This Is Grandpa’s Wish, How Can I, As His Grandson, Dare To Disobey (1/2)
By the end of the month, it was already mid-summer. At this time of year, some relatives and friends of the elderly would come from Beijing to H City to visit Old Man Xian.
Nanny Cheng and the others carried trays of fruit and drinks as they moved back and forth under the awning. Jiang Ruolan accompanied Zhan An inside, while Old Man Xian, Xian Jian, Xian Zihao, and Jiang Yijun chatted with the Old Man's friends who came one by one outside. At this moment, the Xian Residence was more lively than the Spring Festival.
”Ruolan, the watermelon on the kitchen table has not been taken out yet. Go and bring the plate to our guests.” Zhan An said before turning away to do something else.
Jiang Ruolan walked out with a tray and happened to see another car parked outside the yard. An old man who looked familiar entered. Old Man Xian smiled as he stood to greet him.
”Aiya, Old Man Xian. It's been a long time since we met. It's rare that you invite everyone here for a gathering this year. You also invited me! Coincidentally my son's club just happened to be renovated and I'm not too busy, so I took this advantage to go for a walk. Aiya, the place that your Xian Residence is built is really good. It is indeed a good place to recuperate!”
Old Man Xian also smiled and said, ”Old Huang, you have seen a lot of people in your son's Aerial Club, aren't you getting more and more courteous with your words? Where did the wildness go? No matter how good my place is, it can't compare to your Aerial Club. Haha, I am old now. Otherwise, I will definitely visit your son's place often.”
Jiang Ruolan put the tray in her hand onto the tea table and looked at the old man who had entered.
Uncle Huang?
Wasn't he an old man in charge of Aerial Club's Farm in F City? So he and Old Man Xian were old friends.
Jiang Ruolan looked in that direction, and she didn't know if it was a good idea for her to go over and greet him. Before she could leave, Uncle Huang's eyes swept around the area, and after greeting a few of the old people, he seemed to notice Jiang Ruolan, who was standing in front of the table.
Uncle Huang smiled and waved at her, ”Miss Jiang, are you still thinking of the fruits in our garden? I brought some for you. I picked it up this morning, and it's still fresh. I will ask someone to bring it for you later!”
When Old Man Xian heard this, he immediately turned to look at Jiang Ruolan with a smile. ”Ruolan, you know Senior Huang?”
Jiang Ruolan felt awkward. She couldn't tell Old Man Xian that Xian Zihao went to F City to look for her and they end up reconciling at Aerial Club. She could only nod her head lightly.
After that, she walked closer and smiled politely at Uncle Huang. ”Uncle Huang, you still remembered that I like to eat fruits in your garden. You make me so embarrassed.”
”Eh? What are you saying? You are the beloved wife of our President Xian, the beloved granddaughter-in-law of Old Man Xian, and we had chatted before. How can I not give you something when I'm here?” After Uncle Huang had finished speaking, he called for someone from the car to bring a bag of fresh fruit and pushed it into her hand.
Jiang Ruolan smiled gratefully. Zhan An suddenly called her from inside. After saying thank you, she turned around and went back to the kitchen.
At least thirty people were invited to Xian Residence today, so the Xian Family's servant set up three tables full of dishes and let Old Man Xian chat with these old friends to his heart's content.
”Old Man Xian is like a child now. Not only did he find a grandson who had moved away from home, but the child in his grandson's wife's womb would also be born soon. Aiya, I am so jealous of him!”
