Xie Xuning went to the yard. A corner was filled with various ingredients, and these would be handed over to the cook.
Grandmother took Xie Xuning with her to invite all the families in town to have lunch and dinner at their home tomorrow.
Over the years, because Ye Linlang came back to Jiameng Town pregnant, there had been some rumors circulating throughout the town.
These rumors had tormented Ye Tianxin since childhood. That’s why her grandmother wanted to make a grand announcement to everyone.
Her Tianxin had a father.
Ye Tianxin’s father was Xie Xuning.
Although Grandmother had no idea what kind of soldier Xie Xuning was, she wouldn’t want anything to do with Xie Xuning’s power and influence.
She just wanted everyone to know that the Ye family had a successor, and her daughter wasn’t the kind of woman who would sleep around.
Other people might misunderstand Grandmother’s temperament because she didn’t have a son. In the past, it wasn’t that no one had suggested that she adopt a son.
For the sake of her assets, Ye Guoliang and Zhu Dongmei had done outrageous things that would infuriate both humans and the gods.
“Brother Liu, come to my house for lunch and dinner tomorrow,” Grandmother invited the man excitedly. Our house has been newly renovated. You must all come to join the celebration and meet my son-in-law at the same time.”
“Sister Su, if you’re free tomorrow, bring your whole family to my house. Ah, who is this?” Grandmother placed a hand on Xie Xuning’s shoulder and smiled. “This is my son-in-law, Xie Xuning, Linlang’s husband.”
Xie Xuning followed Grandmother obediently. When he met the women and children, he gave them a handful of fruit candies, while he gave packs of cigarettes to the men.
“Old woman, your son-in-law is a nobleman,” an old man commented while smoking a cigarette.
Grandmother replied modestly, “What nobleman? Noble or not, he is my son-in-law. Come on, Xuning.”
Xie Xuning often appeared in the news. Although his appearances were brief, he was still recognized.
Some people who regularly watched the news recognized him at a glance.
However, they were a little unsure and hesitated to approach him. After all, famous people were far too removed from the daily lives of ordinary folks.
After inviting the guests, Xie Xuning and Ye Tianxin weren’t idle. Xie Xuning had good handwriting, so he wrote some characters on the decorations. He dipped the brush in black ink and used much force to write. Each stroke was carefully done, and he wrote impressive characters.
“Dad, your calligraphy is worth a lot of money!” Ye Tianxin exclaimed. She couldn’t believe how great Xie Xuning’s calligraphy was. “These characters are better than those of the members of the Calligraphy Association.”
Ye Tianxin stood aside while holding the written couplet. She then put it under the eaves to dry.
“Silly girl, our Xie family doesn’t lack money,” Xie Xuning replied, smiling. “When I take you back to the imperial capital, let’s go to Lang Garden. There are many good treasures there.”
Ye Tianxin sat down and propped up her chin, then asked Xie Xuning, “Dad, if you and Mom meet again, will you want to have another child?”
“I think it’s better for me to wait for a grandson,” Xie Xuning answered, raising an eyebrow. He looked at Ye Tianxin, awaiting her reaction.
With Li Qingcang’s obsession with Ye Tianxin, he probably wanted to abduct Ye Tianxin and take her to the Li family’s house a long time ago.
Ye Tianxin blushed, and she couldn’t stop thinking of Xiao Jin.
Strictly speaking, Xiao Jin was Xie Xuning’s grandson.
“Dad, I mean if…” Ye Tianxin sat beside Xie Xuning and spoke softly, “If I hadn’t met Brother Li, then I would have been just an ordinary young woman. I would have taken the college entrance examinations like a regular student. Maybe I will join the entertainment industry. If I were to appear on TV, would you suspect that I’m your daughter?”
