2807 Good Things Came In Pairs
“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll go now. Walk slowly.” Ye Jian’s arrival made Xia Jinyuan so happy that his heart was flying. He didn’t expect the little fox to accompany the old man to the Xia family’s old residence.
Grandpa Xia didn’t hate his grandson when he saw him sucking up to him. Instead, he felt that he was being sincere.
It was a good thing that his grandson liked the granddaughter of the Fu family. He valued her, doted on her, and kept her in his heart. He would surely grow attached to her and love her well.
His grandson didn’t hide his feelings for the young lady at all. At least in terms of feelings, his grandson, whom he was proud of, was a man who could take responsibility. He was a real man!
“Grandpa Fu only has one granddaughter, and it wasn’t easy for him to get her back. Before he could even dote on her for a few years, you took advantage of the situation and brought her into the Xia family to become the daughter-in-law of the Xia family.
“In the future, even her family will be the Xia family. The Fu family can only be considered her maternal family. Little Six, you won her over before she even graduated from senior high. Until now, you’re the only person in her heart. You can’t treat her badly.
“You have to treat her well so that she can treat you better. That way, the two of you can be together for a long time and become husband and wife.
“When you meet Grandpa Fu, greet him respectfully. Be more mature and restrain your temper. When the time is right, bow down to the young lady and yield to her. Only then will Grandpa Fu feel more at ease. Do you understand?”
Grandpa Xia was reasonable. He knew that his old friend’s family was small. He only came to know of the existence of his only granddaughter after 20 years. Fortunately, she was back. If not, the Fu family would really have no successor.
He was worried because Xia Jinyuan was still young. Sometimes, he would use the arrogance of a young man to make Ye Jian sad. Hence, he reprimanded Xia Jinyuan in advance to prevent them from arguing in the future.
“You’re right. I was the one who pulled her along the same path as me. I’ll hold her hand, and I don’t plan on letting go halfway. I’ll only hold her hand for the rest of my life. No one else can take her position.
“We will love each other for a long time. We won’t make you and Grandpa Fu sad. We will definitely make you happy.”
Xia Jinyuan’s reply was sincere.
Some families were afraid that their sons would forget their mothers after marrying, but the Xia family was not afraid. The men of the Xia family were all sentimental. No matter how dazzling the world outside was, they would only dote on their wives. They would be together for the rest of their lives.
There was no conflict between marrying a wife and being filial to one’s elders. As for those men who forgot their mothers after marrying, it could only be said that there was a problem with their character.
Some in-laws couldn’t let their daughters-in-law have a sense of belonging in the family. Some daughters-in-law couldn’t be filial to their mothers-in-law. Such families were scattered. If the family members weren’t united, how could the family thrive?
Hence, the elders of the Xia family were never worried that their descendants would forget about them after getting married. They believed in their descendants’ judgment and believed that such a day would not come.
After walking out of the vegetable garden, the main hall was on the left and the backyard was on the right. Xia Jinyuan wanted to go to the backyard to invite the old madam out. He had just taken two steps when he turned back around.
“Madam Xiao is here too. Why don’t you accompany Grandpa Fu to our back garden first? I’ll go over and greet Grandpa Fu first before asking Grandma to come out.”
Grandpa Xia patted his forehead lightly with his old fan and smiled. “Look at me. I almost forgot that there are other guests.”
