Translator: 549690339
Grandpa Qin got to thinking that Qin Yu and Qin Xue were twins, and since Qin Xue was married and had children, it was about time for Qin Yu to get married, right?
“Yeah, can’t believe it’s been 20 years, just like yesterday when Shulan first came to our village.” Grandpa Qin sighed at the passing of time.
“Indeed, when we took Shulan in, we had no idea she was pregnant at the time.
We decided to marry her to Qin Lei only because we felt sorry for her, and to prevent the village from sneering at the unborn child.
When Qin Xue and Qin Yu were born, we even told the villagers that the children were premature.
Now, in the blink of an eye, the children are married and have their own children, it does remind us how old we are getting!” Grandma Qin also sighed at the merciless progress of time.
“My dear, let’s not talk about these old stories anymore, Xiao Yu is still here, we don’t want him to overhear.
Otherwise, who knows what this lad might think.” Grandpa Qin quietly reminded Grandma Qin.
“Husband, I know, aren’t we speaking quietly about this?
Xiao Yu has always thought of himself as our biological grandson. If he found out he’s not, he would certainly overthink it.
So we need to be careful in this matter.” Grandma Qin also understood her husband’s meaning.
What the old couple didn’t know was that Qin Yu had heard every single word they said.
It would be a lie to say he wasn’t shocked, as Qin Yu really believed that he and his sister were the children of the Qins.
Because he had never seen anyone treat people not of their own blood so kindly.
Therefore, he never doubted their identities.
He was not expecting to hear such amazing news today, even the villagers thought they were children of the Qins.
But it turns out they were not, but it’s because the Qins were genuinely good to his mother and them that he never even thought about it, maybe that’s why the villagers never doubted it either?
Just because the Qins genuinely treated them well, even if Qin Yu heard the truth, he would pretend that he didn’t.
He couldn’t hurt these simple and kind people.
Especially the man who treated him as his own son, and these two kind old people.
Qin Yu quietly turned back and retreated without letting the two old people notice.
The fish was supposed to be eaten tomorrow, and he was going to ask the old couple if they wanted to marinate it or fry it.
But he didn’t expect to hear their conversation as soon as he stepped out of the kitchen.
He hid at the kitchen door and listened to their entire conversation.
Qin Yu returned to the kitchen, lit the fire, and fried the fish. He put it in a bowl and saved it for his grandparents to make soup tomorrow. Otherwise, it would be a shame if it went off in the heat.
“Grandma and Grandpa, it’s hot outside, and I’m worried it’ll spoil, so I’ve fried the fish and put it in the bowl cabinet. Tomorrow, you can take it out and make a soup or reheat it and make red-cooked fish.” Qin Yu explained.
“Good boy, thank you, Xiao Yu!” Grandma Qin’s eyes crinkled in a smile, she did indeed dote on this grandson.
“Grandma, I’m your grandson. Why are you so polite with me?” Qin Yu said with a laugh.
“Alright, I won’t be polite with you, Xiao Yu.” Grandma Qin replied smoothly.
“Okay, let’s go now.” Qin Yu looked at the sky and thought that their dinner should be ready at home.
“Alright, I’ll get the keys and lock the door.” Grandpa Qin got up to get the keys.
“Grandma, shall we wait for Grandpa outside the door?” Qin Yu asked as he helped Grandma Qin.
“No need to help me, I can walk.” Grandma Qin was quite nimble on her feet.
“I know Grandma is nimble, but I just want to be a bit closer to you.
You two didn’t agree to move in with us.
Instead, you insist on living here alone. We’re usually too busy to come and accompany you.” Qin Yu helplessly replied..
