Chapter 377: Chapter 377 The Beautiful Fifth Aunt

Yang Wuzhu nodded at Xiaoxiao’s greeting, then hurried towards the house, shouting as he walked, "Xiaofang, guess who’s here? My grandnephew Yang Ming is here."

Xiaoxiao glanced at her makeshift husband, puzzled as to why his arrival would make Uncle Wu so elated.

As the two followed behind, they hadn’t yet entered the inner room when they heard a clear female voice from inside, "Really? Yang Ming is here?"

"..." This left Xiaoxiao very perplexed. Why did Aunt Wu’s tone sound so thrilled too?

Upon entering the house, Xiaoxiao saw Aunt Wu, whom she had never met before. Aunt Wu’s refined and otherworldly appearance made Xiaoxiao think of a phrase, "Like a lotus flower rising pure from the water, untouched by the mud below."

Both Uncle and Aunt Wu’s good looks were too much, and Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but stare a bit.

"You must be tired from such a long journey, sit down and rest." Yang Wuzhu’s wife hurriedly moved a stool and urged them to sit.

Snapping back to reality at Aunt Wu’s warm invitation, Xiaoxiao quickly responded, "Aunt Wu, I’m not tired."

"You sit first, I’ll go pour some water for you. Even if you’re not tired, you must be thirsty."

Aunt Wu said and headed outside, which made Xiaoxiao feel quite embarrassed, as though she was imposing.

"Aunt Wu, this is what my wife prepared. Here is a piece of fabric for you, and the rest are some edibles. You can take them to the kitchen."

Seeing Aunt Wu about to go to the kitchen, Yang Ming quickly handed over the items.

"Child, if you’re coming, just come, why bring so many things? We’re all family, you can’t do this in the future." Aunt Wu accepted the items, speaking politely as she left.

Although she used the same polite language as the Village Chief’s wife, Xiaoxiao felt that Aunt Wu truly meant they shouldn’t bother doing this again.

After Aunt Wu left, Xiaoxiao, who sat there, started looking around. Simple tables and chairs, no superfluous decorations, but everything was tidy and clean.

But no matter what, it was a brick house. She presumed that Uncle and Aunt Wu were living well here. Xiawa Village wasn’t far from Yang Family Village, just a neighboring village. How could it be that she never saw Uncle even on major festival days?

As Xiaoxiao was mulling this over, on the other side, Uncle Wu had already started chatting with Yang Ming.

"Yang Ming, how have your studies been lately?"

"Uncle Wu needn’t worry, your nephew hasn’t forgotten to study."

"How is everything at home now?"

"Everything at home is fine now. Xiaoqiu has already returned home, and there’s also a lead on Xiaoxia."

These words startled Yang Wuzhu. Though he didn’t visit Yang Family Village, he often heard news from there. He knew about Xiaoqiu returning home, but having a clue about Xiaoxia was beyond his expectations.

He was genuinely happy for the family, feeling somewhat emotional, "That’s really wonderful news."

"And how about the others at home, how is my mother’s health?"

"Grandmother is still as quirky as ever, but she’s very fond of my wife and often asks her over for chats."

Hearing this, Yang Wuzhu felt a stir of emotion and glanced in Xiaoxiao’s direction.

He had heard quite a few rumors about Yang Ming’s new wife, from being notoriously infamous to now being fiercely competent, and then observing the way his nephew looked at her.

Perhaps she truly had something exceptional about her, having won over both his nephew and that eccentric old lady.

He thought to himself, wondering, should he ask for her help with that matter?
