Grandpa Qi couldn’t wait anymore. Ever since Zhenbai said he had a wife, he wanted to see what kind of granddaughter-in-law she was.
This was the wife Zhenbai had chosen himself, so Grandpa Qi already had a good impression of her. Because of the spirit rice, Grandpa Qi was now even more fond of this granddaughter-in-law whom he had never seen before. Him personally coming out to welcome them was proof of this. Of course, thinking that Zhenbai’s wife might be nervous, Grandpa Qi thought about it and didn’t bring any of the adults out with him. Instead, he brought Qi Hao, Yunxuan and Yunchuang out to welcome her.
This way, Zhenbai’s wife wouldn’t be under too much pressure.
Chi Shuyan didn’t know that before she came, Qi Hao had already been telling Grandpa Qi and Qi Yunxuan or sorts of good things about her. With every sentence, he didn’t forget to say, “My sister-in-law is amazing,” “My sister-in-law is so good,” “If you guys treat my sister-in-law badly, you’ll suffer,” and “My sister-in-law is the most awesome in the world.”
His chatter and bragging made the old man even more amused and curious. He knew that Haozi was usually pampered by his second son and his wife, so he was extremely picky.
He had never seen him like and defend someone like this before.
It was a good thing Chi Shuyan didn’t know that Qi Hao had talked her up to the heavens. Otherwise, she really wouldn’t have the face to get out of the car at that moment.
Seeing Qi Zhenbai get out of the car, Chi Shuyan followed the man out without delay.
Grandpa Qi had a good look at Zhenbai’s wife. His first impression was that the child was young. She was too young. He completely suspected this kid, Zhenbai, of eating young grass.
But apart from being too young, Zhenbai’s wife was extraordinarily beautiful. She had an oval face and distinct facial features which were classic and exquisite.
It fitted the smooth and round face type which old people liked, since they thought it was good luck to have a round chin. This was what Grandpa Zhou had thought before.
Grandpa Qi had virtually the same thought, and his impression of Chi Shuyan was even better.
No matter how he looked at her, he found the granddaughter-in-law whom Zhenbai had brought with him very pleasing to the eye.
And with Zhenbai’s looks, moreover, they truly weren’t an ordinary match. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, and they had extremely outstanding features. They were eye-catching and pleasing to the eye, and their future children wouldn’t look any worse.
The more Grandpa Qi thought about it, the happier he felt.
As the old man’s mind wandered, Qi Zhenbai brought his wife over and saw the old man’s joyful and excited face.
Qi Zhenbai took the lead and called out, “Grandpa!”
On the way here, Chi Shuyan also struggled with how to address him. She didn’t ask the man beside her, because if she did, he would probably say to follow him. Since this was their first meeting, however, she couldn’t use anything that was too intimate nor too distant. After thinking about it, Chi Shuyan said, “Elder Qi!”
“Call Grandpa!” Qi Zhenbai was displeased with his wife’s address.
“Grandpa Qi!” Chi Shuyan wasn’t stubborn, and thoughtfully compromised.
Qi Zhenbai still wasn’t satisfied that his wife had added “Qi.”
When Grandpa Qi heard Zhenbai’s wife call him “Grandpa Qi,” he was so excited and happy that he grinned from ear to ear and his brow creased with delight and excitement.
He never thought that Zhenbai would really bring his wife home and call him ‘Grandpa’ in his lifetime.
The old man praised happily and repeatedly, “Good… Good, good, good! Good child! Really good!”
