Spring River Chasing the Moon
Chapter 145 Old House
When Nan Qiuyue knew she was going to Xu Zhiye's house, it was already the day of the dinner party.
If Nanzhou Yue and Zhu Yuying hadn't been there, Nan Qiuyue would have almost screamed with excitement.
Originally, Chen Lili was supposed to go together, but the school had some temporary arrangements, so Chen Lili had no choice but to ask her parents-in-law to explain the reason to the Xu family on her behalf.
Moreover, although Nan Youzhao asked his parents-in-law not to tell her about the previous incident in the northern suburbs, she still heard some of the situation from his teammates when she went to the northern suburbs some time ago.
The incident passed, but Chen Lili always felt a little embarrassed when she went to Xu's house. She was not good at socializing, and the school incident gave her a legitimate reason to refuse to go to Xu's house.
Nan Qiuyue had no idea that there was such a thing going on between the two families. She was just happy that she could go to Xu Zhiye's house.
Recently, because she started elementary school, she can no longer just pretend like she did in kindergarten. She wants to combine her learning experience in her previous life, strive to become a person with excellent grades, make her family happy, and make herself better in this life, so she spends most of her time studying.
In addition, Xu Zhiye's daily schedule was also very tightly controlled by his grandfather, so they hadn't seen each other for a long time.
As soon as Nan Qiuyue got out of school, she took Luo Luo and walked quickly back home. Since she couldn't bring Luo Luo to the dinner party today, Aunt Nan took on the task of taking care of Luo Luo's dinner.
Zhu Yuying changed Nan Qiuyue's clothes and went downstairs. Nanzhou Yue was standing in the yard, waiting for them to get in the car together.
The driver was ready early. After seeing Nanzhou Yue and the others leave, he immediately opened the car door and waited for them to get in.
"Have you put away all the presents?"
Before setting off, Nanzhou Yue asked the driver.
"It's all in the trunk."
Since you are visiting someone's home, there is no reason to go empty-handed.
"Grandma, is Brother Zhiye's home far away?"
Nan Qiuyue asked Zhu Yuying curiously.
"Today we are going to Zhiye's family's old house, which is quite far away. If Qiyue feels sleepy, you can take a nap first."
After Nan Qiuyue started elementary school, she suddenly felt that she had much less sleep. There were too many people in the classroom during lunch break, and her classmates were very noisy. She couldn't sleep well at all, and she felt sleepy when doing her homework every day when she got home.
I couldn't help but think back to my past life. It seemed like I was like this when I was a child. I was more energetic than anyone else during lunch break. It wasn't until high school that I found that I could never get enough sleep.
But she is not sleepy today, she is too excited to even think about it.
Along the way, Nan Qiuyue watched the grass and trees in the south city rush by. The sky gradually darkened, and there were fewer and fewer vehicles outside. Nan Qiuyue clearly felt that the speed of the cars had slowed down.
The scenery outside the car window at this time was completely different from what we had just seen in the city.
This is a mountain road. On the quiet road, only the street lamps every few meters are dimly lit. When the car slowly stopped, an antique house appeared in Nan Qiuyue's sight.
She didn't expect that there was such a unique old house halfway up the mountain. Looking at the two lit lanterns at the door, if you didn't know, you would think that you were not reborn, but traveled through time.
Nanzhou Yue looked at the dazed Nan Qiuyue, thinking that the environment here was too quiet and she was a little scared, so he went over and held her hand.
"This is your Grandpa Xu's old house. Don't be afraid, your grandparents are here."
Nanzhou Yue and Zhu Yuying each held one of Nan Qiuyue's hands and walked towards the Xu family's gate.
"You are here, please come in."
The person who spoke was the Xu family's housekeeper, Old Zhao.
The butler respectfully invited the three of them in and led them to the dining room.
After entering the gate, Nan Qiuyue discovered the hidden world inside the Xu family's old house.
Entering from the porch, the entire outer courtyard is elegant and graceful, with green bamboo and moonlight complementing each other, and the hazy night seems to cover the place with a thin layer of mist.
In her previous life, Nan Qiuyue had also visited many old houses in Haicheng and the surrounding areas. The style was quite different from this one. Although they were equally exquisite and elegant, they were also grand and bright.
They passed through the flower wall of the outer courtyard, walked along the square stone path, and passed through a long corridor before arriving at the Xu family's restaurant.
As soon as they arrived at the door, Xu Wen and his wife He Jingjing came out to greet the three of them.
"Brother, I am truly ashamed that you can give me this face."
Xu Wen held Nanzhou Yue's hand and felt ashamed when he thought about how he had been hiding from Nanzhou Yue for a long time because of Gu Yan'an's matter.
He just wanted to let the matter take its course, fearing that he wouldn't know what to say when they met. It was his lover who kept reminding him that he couldn't evade the issue like this, and that anything should be said face to face, so that both families wouldn't have any grudges in their hearts.
Xu Wen knew this, but he was indeed a little embarrassed at first. It was not until he taught that brat Gu Yan'an a lesson and sent him to the northwest region, not allowed to return to Nancheng for ten years, intending to temper his temper. After arranging all this, Xu Wen finally had the nerve to invite Nanzhou Yue and others over.
"Come in quickly, why are you holding me outside?"
He Jingjing couldn't stand it anymore when she saw Xu Wen pulling Nanzhou Yue and not inviting him in, so she spoke up to remind him.
"Yes, yes, please take a seat. It's just the few of us here today. It's been a while since we two brothers sat down and had a good chat."
Xu Wen quickly brought Nanzhou Yue Zhuyuying and Nan Qiuyue into the restaurant.
After taking his seat, Xu Wen pulled Nanzhou Yue aside to apologize, saying that he had not dealt with Gu Yan'an well and that he absolutely did not have the face to see Nanzhou Yue again.
Xu Wen handled this matter quite secretly, and Nanzhou Yue didn't hear any news at first. That is, before coming here today, Xu Wen probably wanted the Nan family to know his sincerity, so he released some information to let him know.
Nanzhou Yue was not surprised by Xu Wen's arrangement for Gu Yan'an. He always believed that Xu Wen would never be a person who would show favoritism.
So Nanzhou Yue immediately asked him to deal with the matter together. If Xu Wen was someone who would cover up, he would not have handed Gu Yan'an over to Xu Wen and let them deal with it themselves.
"Let the past be the past and don't mention it again."
Nanzhou Yue is satisfied with Gu Yan'an's current arrangement. As for whether he won't return to Nancheng for ten or twenty years, this is all controllable. He doesn't want Gu Yan'an to return to Nancheng again, and he has plenty of ways to make him stay there.
"This is Qiyue, right?"
When Xu Wen and Nanzhou Yue were talking excitedly, He Jingjing turned her gaze to Nan Qiuyue.
This was the first time she saw the little granddaughter that the Nan family had just adopted. The little girl sat aside, eating her food quietly, and was very well-behaved.
Hearing her name, Nan Qiuyue looked up at He Jingjing, nodded with a smile, and then lowered her head to chew again.
Nan Qiuyue was a little depressed. She didn't expect Xu Zhi was not here either. She could only try her best to be invisible and eat desperately.
"This child usually talks the most, but he might be a little shy today."
Zhu Yuying looked at Nan Qiuyue, who was more silent than usual, and explained for her. He Jingjing smiled and said it was okay.
The child looks good eating with big mouthfuls. Seeing Nan Qiuyue eating, He Jingjing's appetite improved a lot.
Nan Qiuyue was not shy. The people in front of her were Xu Zhiye's grandparents. Thinking about how high their expectations of Xu Zhiye were, Nan Qiuyue was afraid that she would do something inappropriate or say something that would leave a bad impression on them. It would be most reliable to just lower her head and eat. It would never go wrong to eat quietly.
Just as Nan Qiuyue was concentrating on eating, footsteps were heard at the restaurant door.
The person Nan Qiuyue wanted to see was standing right in front of her.
"Grandpa, grandma, here I come."
