Chapter 835: Chapter 835 Grandparent and Grandchild Meet 2

"As far as I know, you don’t just eat there, you always pack some to take away too," He Nan said.

"That’s my granddaughter-in-law’s filial piety," Grandfather He retorted.

Hearing him repeatedly mention granddaughter-in-law, He Nan felt particularly pleased, but he said, "Don’t keep calling her your granddaughter-in-law. She might not necessarily become your granddaughter-in-law."

Upon hearing this, Grandfather He’s face suddenly darkened. "You little rascal, I’ve already decided she is my granddaughter-in-law. Dating without the intention of marriage is just fooling around. If you dare to fool around, I’ll be the first one to call the police and get you arrested."

"It’s not my problem. Mianmian is an orphan, and since you know where she is, you must have investigated everything about her. She’s from the countryside of Licheng, and your daughter-in-law doesn’t seem too pleased with her," He Nan said calmly.

His daughter-in-law isn’t pleased?

Grandfather He frowned. "I know Xiaohua’s temperament. The reason she’s not pleased is that she hasn’t interacted with Mianmian and is too fond of that girl Xining, so she’s biased against Mianmian."

He pondered for a moment, then added, "You don’t need to worry about Xiaohua; leave her to me. What era are we living in now? The Great Qing has long collapsed. If an old man like me can understand this, your mother certainly can too. It’s time to work on her mindset."

A hint of amusement flickered in He Nan’s eyes. "Grandpa, then I’ll leave this matter entirely up to you."

"Mm." Grandfather He nodded solemnly. "You just keep getting along well with the girl Mianmian. I’ve noticed this boy, Lu Siyuan, seems to have feelings for Mianmian, and the two of them are classmates. Be careful, if you get your girl stolen, don’t come crying to me for help. I won’t acknowledge you as my grandson."

"Don’t worry," He Nan replied briefly.

Seeing the confident look on He Nan’s face, Grandfather He suddenly realized he might have been duped, but being shrewd all his life, he was not ready to admit he’d been outmaneuvered by his grandson.

"I have invited those two girls over for a meal next week. You should come too. We’ve kept it from her for so long; it’s time she knew who I am. Otherwise, this girl will keep thinking your family doesn’t approve of her, feeling insecure and unsupported when she’s out," Grandfather He said.

This invitation for Shen Mianmian to come for a meal was precisely to let her know he was very pleased with her.

"Alright," He Nan nodded again.

Thinking it over, Grandfather He added, "Let’s not tell Xiaohua about Mianmian’s visit just yet. If Xiaohua gives her a cold look the first time she comes over, Mianmian will feel very uncomfortable."

He Nan naturally had no objections, thinking along the same lines as Grandfather He.

Originally, everything was going according to his plan. He would have Mianmian meet his mother after she graduated or, alternatively, after Grandpa had successfully worked on her mindset.

But he hadn’t expected...

"Mr. He, it’s time for dinner," the butler said softly, approaching them.

Grandfather He always had his meals punctually, dinner at 5:30 PM.

"Mm."

Grandfather He responded and stood up, then said to He Nan, "It’s getting late, you should head back soon!"

After saying this, he headed to the kitchen.

Instead of leaving, He Nan followed Grandfather He into the kitchen. "I’ll stay and have dinner with you before I go."

Upon hearing this, Grandfather He’s eyes suddenly widened. He Nan ignored his reaction, and the butler seeing that he was staying for dinner, hurriedly added another set of bowl and chopsticks.

The table had three side dishes, a soup, plain porridge, and fried egg pancakes. He Nan directly picked up a piece of egg pancake, placing it in his bowl and started eating. Grandfather He’s eyes immediately widened again.
