Chapter 062: [Call from the Magic City]

When he got home, Xu Ning had already put the last dish out of the pot.

"Mom is back and it's time to have a meal."

"Thank you for your hard work, my baby daughter, I've been so busy that morning."

When Xu Ning heard this, his heart suddenly felt a "kick".

"Is something wrong?" she asked pretending to be calm.

"It's nothing. It's summer vacation. Many people call the village children to go to their relatives' houses to play." Qin Xuejuan washed her hands and came in to help Xu Ning serve the dishes.

Seeing that it was not called by the Qin family in the Demon City, Xu Ning felt relieved, of course this was only temporary.

After lunch, everyone in the family took lunch breaks one after another. Xu Ning lay on the kang and couldn't sleep for a while. If he had something to do in his heart, how could he calm down?

I had no choice but to sit up and continue to do my homework.

After three o'clock in the afternoon, she put down her pen and came to the kitchen to make dumplings.

Cut the cabbage into pieces and add salt to the side. Turn around and cut two pounds of pork belly into minced meat. After that, prepare various seasonings. Here, I roll out the dumpling skin and make dumplings.

When Yu Chunhua came back, Xu Ning had already booked almost half of it.

"Why don't you wait for me?" She came in and picked up the rolling pin to roll out dumplings for Xu Ning. Looking at Xu Ning's craftsmanship, she felt very satisfied.

"Where has grandma been?" Xu Ning asked casually.

"You are embroidered insoles at your grandma Gao's house, and you are anxious when you come back when you see the time."

"I'm fine with it alone."

In the evening, Gao Xiulan had just finished cooking and served it on the table when she saw Xu Ning coming in with a tray.

"Grandma Gao, I'll send you dumplings while they're hot." As soon as I entered the door, Xu Ning saw that they were ready for dinner, "I'm coming a little late."

"You guys can eat at home, and you can give it to us." Gao Xiulan got off the kang and found two large plates in the kitchen, and came to free up the sea bowls. "Give us so much, is your family enough to eat?"

"Enough, I've bought a lot." Xu Ning smiled, "Brother Zheng helped me tutor me every night these days, this little thing is nothing."

Xie Zheng sat cross-legged in the kang. When he heard Xu Ning's words, a intoxicating smile appeared in his eyes.

"I'll go back and bring you some garlic paste." Xu Ning suddenly came to his senses. He was just spending time delivering dumplings, but he forgot about this.

Gao Xiulan was so happy that she was very happy, "What kind of garlic paste is given? If you have green onions at home, Ningning will not go there, so eat here."

These two big bowls are quite large, and the three of them will definitely not finish them. When they see that the old Xu family is really human.

Xu Ning looked up at Xie Zheng, "Brother Zheng, do you want garlic paste?"

Xie Zheng shook his head with a smile, "No, just raw garlic."

"Oh." Xu Ning nodded obediently, "Then Grandpa Jiang, Grandma Jiang, I'm going home and waiting for me to have a meal."

"Don't you eat here?"

"No need, I have to eat dumplings for you, it's so good." Xu Ning held the tray and stepped into the house with Gao Xiulan insisting on sending her to the door.

Xie Zheng picked up a dumpling here and stuffed it into his mouth. The taste made him very satisfied.

That little girl, don't think that a meal of dumplings will be dismissed.

"Ningning is a child with great skills." As soon as Gao Xiulan came back, she heard her husband's words.

After she went to the kang and ate one, she nodded and said, "It's better than the ones made in spring flowers."

Then he glared at his grandson, "Hey, I really don't know that this good boy will take advantage of that brat in the future."

When Mr. Jiang heard this, he looked at his grandson calmly, then withdrew his gaze as if he didn't know that the old woman had said this for several years.

Xie Zheng slightly raised the corners of his beautiful eyes and eyebrows, and did not respond to his grandmother's unremarkable intentions at all.

Who took advantage of that girl!

Who knows?

Thinking of this in my heart, the smile in my eyes almost overflowed.

After Xie Zheng was on vacation, Xu Ning had already finished all his summer homework.

Zhang Meng came over that morning and learned about this, she lay directly on the table.

"Xu Ning, do you need to do this? I have two subjects left." When I left yesterday, there were still some, but now I have finished writing them all.

"I still have a weekly diary, but I haven't written it." Xu Ning comforted.

"Weekly diary is not considered homework." He complained, but his body was very honest. The pen in his hand was already busy. "I will also strive to end today. I will ask my dad to send me to my grandma's house tomorrow. I will bring you clams and oysters."

"Okay, I'll wait at home."

At the dinner table two days later, Qin Xuejuan suddenly said something serious.

"I received a call from my mother today. She told me that my grandfather was seriously ill and asked me to go back and see."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of bowls and chopsticks in the room stopped instantly, and there was a silence like death.

Xu Jianjun's expression was contemplative, while Yu Chunhua simply became extremely solemn.

"What disease!" she asked.

Seeing her mother-in-law's expression, Qin Xuejuan knew what she was worried about. In the past, she would never mention the devil capital, but her grandfather was the person she respected the most. Now that her grandfather is seriously ill, she has to go back to visit her.

She understood her mother-in-law, so she never contacted the Qin family in recent years after marriage. Even if the country called on educated youth to return to the city in the later period, she did not speak out.

According to normal circumstances, they should go to the Demon City to see their elders during the New Year. Even if the distance is too far and cannot go back easily, it is always okay to make a phone call, but none of these are there. Although Xu Jianjun mentioned it several times, Qin Xuejuan did not agree.

If my mother-in-law said she would not allow her to go back today, Qin Xuejuan felt that she might not be able to suppress her. She liked Xu Jianjun and married him, instead of selling herself into the Xu family, they had no reason to stop her from visiting relatives.

"It's said that the elderly are sick." Qin Xuejuan suddenly became calm.

Xu Ning's hand holding the chopsticks trembled uncontrollably. She knew that this should not be done, but the fear in her heart could not be suppressed.

"Mom, I'll go with you, Dad, let's go and have a look." Xu Ning spoke uncontrollably. She felt that her voice was a little sharp, perhaps it was an illusion.

Qin Xuejuan suddenly smiled, "I originally planned to go there with our family, and this time I will bring my mother with me."

Because of her words, the serious atmosphere in the room seemed to disappear suddenly.

It’s not that Yu Chunhua trusted this daughter-in-law, but she really didn’t know her parents’ family. If her daughter-in-law returns this time and she wants to come back later, can her parents’ family agree?

However, when she heard that her son and granddaughter were going to go, and even brought her with her, her face calmed down.

"I won't follow you, you'll have to go there." She's so old that she can't stand a long journey. "I'm looking for the house, you can stay for a longer time in the past, and Ningning is on vacation."
