Chapter 518: Chapter 520: Easier Said Than Sung

"Comfortable, how is it, does it look good?" Ji Xinghua adjusted his clothes, his smile so wide that his lips wouldn’t close.

Ji Shuyuan didn’t just give a perfunctory glance but seriously looked him over before nodding and saying, "It looks good, Grandpa. You look especially vibrant, like you’ve shed a few years."

"You, always so sweet-talking." Ji Xinghua’s eyes crinkled with his smile, and he secretly slipped a bag into Ji Shuyuan’s pocket, saying, "Shuyuan, Grandpa supports you."

"Grandpa, I can’t." Ji Shuyuan started to take it out.

Ji Xinghua hastily stopped him, "I’m not short on money. Your second uncle and aunt have given plenty before and after the New Year, especially your aunt’s family; they really gave quite a lot. You use it first, pay me back when you’ve made some money."

"Don’t worry, your aunt’s family is doing well. They won’t stop caring about us just because they’re making money now," Ji Xinghua spoke earnestly and with deep feeling, "Nianji and Nian’an, those brothers are good ones. You, try to stay in touch with them more, it’s always right."

Yesterday, Ji Xinghua hadn’t spoken up because he didn’t want to start an argument with his daughter-in-law. He was well aware of what his own daughter’s family was like.

Why did Xu Nian’an want to partner with Ji Shuyuan?

Wasn’t it because he wanted to help Shuyuan? He wanted to support their home.

"Grandpa, I understand," Ji Shuyuan said sensibly, nodding his head.

After taking the money, Ji Shuyuan found that Grandpa had contributed one hundred, Dad had given fifty, and he himself had thirty.

No, he had fifty.

Ji Shuyuan thought, he could still sell toys for a few more days.

Ji Shuyuan went out early, and at the same time, handed over all the money to Xu Nian’an saying, "Two hundred for the goods, whatever amount that gets us, let’s take it."

"I’m still short twenty. When you go to Ningbei, I’ll give it to you then," Ji Shuyuan said seriously.

Xu Nian’an looked at the stack of money, didn’t count it, and just tucked it away.

"Aren’t you going to count it?" Ji Shuyuan had already counted it himself. Loose change was too much trouble to count.

"You are my cousin, I trust you," Xu Nian’an said with a grin, "I should be going to Ningbei on the sixth. I’ll find you then."

He didn’t say anything about not wanting the money, because if he had, Ji Shuyuan definitely would have preferred not to stock up rather than agree.

"Alright."

Ji Shuyuan heaved a sigh of relief, worried Xu Nian’an might refuse to take the money.

...

Uncle Ji Lin came with his whole family.

Aunt Cai Jianhong looked very shrewd, skilled in calculations, clad in a red fur coat as if afraid others wouldn’t know she was wealthy.

As soon as the couple entered the house, they greeted Ji Xinghua very warmly and also greeted Ji Ying and the others.

"Yingzi, Nianhua and Nian’an are both studying in Ningbei, aren’t they? You tell me, why so formal? We’re in Ningbei too; why not let them come to us? I and their uncle can host them, save them from being strangers in a new place without somewhere to stay," Cai Jianhong rattled on.

Listening to this, Xu Nianhua couldn’t help but purse his lips. This aunt really knew how to talk a good game; inviting people over while not even providing a phone number or address.

Ningbei is so big, was she expecting them to search house by house?

"They are there to study; finding the university is enough," Ji Ying responded with a smile. She used to be very easy to talk to, but that didn’t mean she was foolish.

"Why didn’t they stay in South City and instead went to university in Ningbei?" Cai Jianhong looked puzzledly at Xu Nianhua and Xu Nian’an. The siblings were extremely good-looking, and thinking of her own two sons who idled their days away, she felt uneasy by the comparison.
