Chapter 147 Grandpa, is this Grandma?

New Year's Eve.

As in previous years, the Yang family gathered together to have New Year's Eve dinner.

However, there are three differences this year. The first is that Yang Mingzhi's family is far away in Jianningwei and cannot come back for a reunion.

The second is that Jiang He and Yang Yunyan's family stayed at the Yang family for the New Year.

The third is that the Yang family has one more person, Yu Qingyi.

That’s right, Yu Qingyi has become a regular at Yang Zhengshan’s house. Although Yang Zhengshan didn’t explain anything to anyone else, he invited Yu Qingyi to have New Year’s Eve dinner with him.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan's idea was very simple. It was New Year's Day, and Yu Qingyi lived alone in Yang's house. Wouldn't it be too inhumane to ask her to have the New Year's Eve dinner together?

His idea was good and there was nothing wrong with it, but he seemed to have overlooked one person, and that was Miss Yu Lu.

Yu Qingyi is a person, but Miss Yu Lu is also a person, but Yang Zhengshan has completely forgotten about them.

The Yang family's New Year's Eve dinner was naturally extremely sumptuous. Now that Yang Zhengshan was not short of money, the family's food and clothing expenses were relatively comfortable. What's more, it was New Year's Day, so Yang Mingcheng and Wang had prepared a large table of food.

But the atmosphere at the dinner table was a little weird.

Yang Zhengshan sat in the main seat and ate his meal calmly. Yu Qingyi sat on the left, her face flushed with shame and her head almost buried in the bowl. Yang Mingcheng and others also lowered their heads to eat, but they would look up at Yu Qingyi from time to time.

It should have been a lively New Year's Eve dinner, but it became silent and weird because of Yu Qingyi's presence.

Yang Yunxue looked at Yang Yunyan, "Sister, is Dad planning to remarry?"

Yang Yunyan ate the food in the bowl with no interest, and shook her head slightly, "Dad didn't tell me, how would I know!"

"But this woman is already at the table!"

"That's probably what Dad meant!"

"Hey, this guy seems to be a good person, but there is a saying that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. What if my father doesn't love me anymore?"

"..."

The two sisters exchanged glances and communicated silently.

At this moment, a voice suddenly broke the silence.

"Grandpa, is this grandma?"

Swish~~
Everyone's eyes turned towards the direction where the voices were being spoken, even Yang Zhengshan was no exception.

The person who spoke was none other than the little girl Yang Qingwan.

This little girl is the only one in the family who can say such things so unscrupulously.

Although Yang Chengye is tough, he is almost six years old after all and has begun to become sensible.

Wang Mingzhe never liked to talk much. He seldom interrupted others on weekdays, let alone at this time.

There is also my little grandson Jiang Ning, who has just learned to speak and speaks haltingly.

Hearing her daughter speaking without thinking, Wang shuddered with fear and quickly reached out to cover the little girl's mouth.

But the words had already come out, and she couldn't hide them even if she wanted to. She could only give Yang Zhengshan a silly smile.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the little girl helplessly.

In fact, he was regretting it just now.

Before, he only considered that it was the New Year and Yu Qingyi would be too lonely eating alone, but he ignored the fact that letting Yu Qingyi sit at the table to eat would make everyone feel awkward.

Originally, no one was talking, and the embarrassment was at least not shown on the surface. But the little girl's voice brought all the embarrassment to the surface.

Girl, if you weren’t so young, grandpa would definitely spank you!
Let you know what "trouble comes from the mouth" means.

Yang Zhengshan had no choice but to complain about the little girl in his heart.

“Hehe, Dad, Qingwan is full, I’ll take her back first!”

Seeing that Yang Zhengshan didn't look very good, Wang quickly picked up the little girl and ran out of the hall.

"Mom, I'm not full yet, I still want to eat barbecue!"

However, the little girl was really not full, and she still wanted to eat the delicious barbecue.

"Okay, okay, the girl isn't full yet, bring her back quickly!" What else could Yang Zhengshan say? He couldn't let the child starve on New Year's Day.

"Don't think too much. Sect Master Yu can't go back for some reason and can only live in our house. She is our guest. Don't think too much!"

Yang Zhengshan could only explain it.

Actually, he hasn't figured out what to do about this matter.

He had learned about Yu Qingyi's situation and knew that Yu Qingyi was not married.

He did have a little crush on Yu Qingyi, but he always felt that the crush was more physical than psychological.

Simply put, he just wants the other person's body, not that he really wants the person.

Yang Zhengshan really couldn't make up his mind whether to marry Yu Qingyi or not.

When Yu Qingyi, who was standing next to him, heard this, he paused and lowered his head even lower.

Yang Zhengshan hadn't thought it through, and her thoughts were very complicated.

With her status and age, it is not an easy thing for her to find a suitable husband.

Here, 28 years old is considered middle-aged. Moreover, she is the leader of Tianqing Sword Sect. If she really wants to get married, she must get the consent of the elders of Tianqing Sword Sect.

Before, she just wanted to please Yang Zhengshan, but Yang Zhengshan’s recent performance made her feel more expectant.

Yang Zhengshan's words made her feel sad and aggrieved, but she couldn't say it out loud.

In the underworld, her status is not low, but in front of Yang Zhengshan, she has no confidence at all.

This is the gap between officials and the people.

Yang Zhengshan noticed Yu Qingyi's mood changes, and knew that what he had just said was somewhat inappropriate to Yu Qingyi.

Although the two did not make any promises, he did do some out-of-the-ordinary things.

For example, holding someone’s hand.

If this happened in the previous life, it would not be a big deal at all, but here, it is out of the ordinary.

After thinking for a while, Yang Zhengshan picked up a piece of roe deer meat and handed it to Yu Qingyi's bowl, saying, "Don't feel restrained, just treat it as if you are at home!"

Yu Qingyi looked up in surprise, and their eyes met, and Yu Qingyi's face turned red.

The others stared at the scene in a daze.

Yang Mingcheng was confused. Didn't Dad say that Master Yu was a guest? But this behavior didn't look like treating a guest! Yang Minghao's eyes were full of gossip. It turned out that Dad was also saying one thing and thinking another. He told us not to think too much before, but aren't you just being reckless?

Wang narrowed her eyes and smiled, but held Yang Qingwan's hand and said, "Girl, don't talk nonsense anymore!"

Liang's eyes flickered, it turned out that her father also had such a gentle side.

Yunyan and Yunxue met each other and it seems that we are going to have a stepmother!

Yang Zhengshan took back his chopsticks, feeling even more helpless.

What a bunch of troublesome light bulbs!

I just want to have a simple relationship now, you can't pretend not to see it.

"Grandpa~~"

The little girl's voice rang out again, and the quiet and strange atmosphere was instantly broken.

Wow~~
Wang was so nervous that she dropped the dishes and chopsticks in front of her to the ground.

"Oh, my silly girl, can't you talk less!"

"..."

Yang Zhengshan was speechless.

My eldest daughter-in-law, can't you just talk less?

The little girl raised her head and looked at her mother, saying aggrievedly: "Mom, I'm full!"

"..."

Everyone was silent.

This girl must be really full, or she must be smart for once.

"Ahem, now that you're full, go play!"

Yang Zhengshan had to break the silence again.

The little girl looked at the meat in the bowl and walked out of the house reluctantly.

Woo woo, I’m not full, I just don’t dare to speak!

The girl felt aggrieved.

How can I not feel wronged if I am not allowed to speak?

The silent and awkward New Year's Eve dinner was quickly finished.

"Dad, I'm going to add some fodder to Hongyun so that it can celebrate the New Year!" Yang Mingcheng found a very clever excuse and ran away.

Afterwards, Wang also slipped away with Yang Chengye. She didn't even need to make an excuse. She just disappeared while cleaning up the dishes.

"Dad, I'm going to go see Mingzhen and the others!" Yang Minghao blinked and pulled Liang away.

But after a while, everyone found excuses to leave, leaving only Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi in the hall.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his long beard with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Just be embarrassed.

As long as I don't feel embarrassed, then they are the ones who are embarrassed.

Humph, I’m the boss, I can do whatever I want.

Thinking of this, he looked at Yu Qingyi, whose face was flushed.

She is already 28 years old but still so shy. This woman is really naive!

"Come on, read a book with me!"

It’s New Year’s Day and there are no entertainment activities. I can only read books to pass the time.

"Oh!" Yu Qingyi came back to her senses, quickly got up and followed Yang Zhengshan to the study.

……

There was no spring scenery in Xiuchun Garden, only a dim candlelight.

Yu Lu sat under the flickering candlelight, embroidering a handkerchief with a serious look on her face.

"Girl, the main courtyard has dispersed!"

The nanny next to her reminded softly.

"Let it go, what does it have to do with us?" Yu Lu said calmly.

The nanny hesitated for a long time before she said, "Young lady, don't forget what the master told you."

Yu Lu suddenly raised her head, her bright eyes filled with coldness.

"Just do your job well. I don't need you to teach me what to do!"

The nanny trembled all over, fell to her knees, raised her hand and slapped her mouth, "It is the old slave who spoke too much, please forgive me, young lady!"

Yu Lu looked at her coldly but did not stop her.

The two maids beside her lowered their heads and dared not even breathe.

It was not until the nanny's face was swollen from beating that Yu Lu said, "Back off!"

"Thank you, young lady!" The nanny kowtowed three times before leaving the room.

After she left, Yu Lu lowered her head and continued to embroider the handkerchief. After embroidering for a while, she let out a long sigh.

"When night rises in the curtains, the frosty moon is as clear as water. The jade dew is not round, and the strings of the precious zither are sadly broken."

She turned her head to look at the broken-string zither lying next to her.

There was no trace of a smile on that delicate face, only sadness that could not be dissolved or erased.

"Hey, get ready. We'll go pay our respects to the master tomorrow!"

She said quietly.

She has been in Yang's house for more than ten days and has never left the yard.

Yang Zhengshan didn't come to see her, and she didn't want to see Yang Zhengshan.

It was just a casual act, who would take it seriously?
