After packing up, Lin Fengmao parked an electric tricycle in front of the door. This was their transportation today.

He left on time at eight in the morning.

Although Lin Family Village and Zhang Family Village were next door, they were separated by a mountain. It was so steep that they could only take a detour.

It would already be an hour before they arrived at the Zhang Family Village.

When they arrived at Lin Lan's house, Lin Fengmao frowned. It was too quiet and there wasn't the slightest atmosphere of a happy occasion.

Guo Caiyun looked at the closed door and said uncertainly, "Boss, did Lan follow Yongping to that courtyard?"

Lin Fengmao wasn't sure, so he took out his phone and dialed.

Soon, a surprised voice came over the phone, "Bro, you're here?" Where are we? I'll get Yongping to pick you up. "

Lin Fengmao laughed, "You are already so old, and yet you are still so restless. We're already at your door. I see that your house is all closed. If all of you are in that courtyard, we'll head there too. "

The person on the other end of the phone stayed silent for a while before replying, "No need, bro. Yongping went to open the door for you." "I'm hanging up. Let's talk inside."

"Sigh …"

Lin Lan hung up without waiting for Lin Fengmao to continue asking.

Guo Caiyun asked, "Why do you look so bad? What's the matter?"

Just as Lin Fengmao was about to speak, he heard the door open. He gave Guo Caiyun a "we'll talk about it later" look.

The door creaked open and someone came out smiling. "Brother, sister-in-law, you're here. Come in quickly. Mom, Dad, and Lan are all waiting for you inside."

When she saw Chiang Kaiwen standing behind Guo Caiyun, she was stunned for a moment. She seemed to remember that it was her niece.

Sensing Zhang Yongping's hesitation, Chiang Kaiwen stepped forward, "Hello, uncle. I'm Chiang Kaiwen."

"Ah, hello …" "Come on in." Perhaps he misheard something, but this thought flashed through Zhang Yongping's mind and he welcomed them inside.

When they entered, Chiang Kaiwen's grandpa Lin De and his grandma Nie Caiju were standing in the living room, greeting their granddaughter. The two old men were feeling very complicated, but the moment they saw Chiang Kaiwen, all their doubts disappeared.

"Wen, my good grandson, why have you lost so much weight? "It must be those damnable Lin Family Member that are bullying me. Wuu, my good grandson, why are you so bitter?

His grandma hugged Chiang Kaiwen and started to wail without a care.

Although his daughter was an ungrateful person, she was still his daughter. How could he not feel pain? How could he not think about it? When he saw his granddaughter, who looked similar to his daughter, the pain that he had buried deep in his heart welled up again.

Chiang Kaiwen looked at Lin Fengmao embarrassedly.

Lin Fengmao didn't expect his mom to be so excited, nor did he ever see Chiang Kaiwen so flustered. He snickered on the inside, but still reached out his hand to pull Nie Caiju away.

Lin Fengmao advised, "Oh my god, today is my good day, don't cry here."

"Oh, good, I forgot." Only now did Nie Caiju remember that today was her youngest daughter's son-in-law's good day, so she couldn't cry.

Lin De turned around, "That's enough, don't stand outside anymore. Go in."

He was tall, and even though he was in his sixties, he was tall and straight. He had a stern expression on his face, but the red rims of his eyes exposed the restlessness in his heart.

When they entered the room, Lin Lan, who was sitting on the mattress, pursed her lips with a wronged expression. "I thought you had forgotten about us." "If you have a nephew, you'll forget about us."

Everyone knew that Lin Lan was pretending to be stupid in order to coax the old man.

Nie Caiju rolled her eyes at her. "What eldest nephew? This is your niece."

Lin Lan blinked and said, "Mom, what did you say?" Niece? This is definitely a nephew! "

Nie Caiju glared at her. "I told you that I can't play on the phone, but you refused to listen. Don't you see how bad your eyes are? Your previous life's experience is …" Nie Caiju looked at Chiang Kaiwen, who was bending over the brick bed and looking at the baby with gentle eyes.

Today, because of her relatives, Chiang Kaiwen wore a new set of clothes: a black-and-white long-sleeved T-shirt, a short blue jacket, black denim pants, and a pair of black sneakers.

At a glance, one would think that this was a handsome youth.

Nie Caiju's brain froze. She even started to suspect that she was really mistaken. Her daughter was born with a nephew, not a niece.

Seeing Grandma Lin like this, Lin Fengmao and Guo Caiyun looked at each other, feeling much better. They had been shocked when they found out the truth.

Lin De saw Chiang Kaiwen's sad expression and was also surprised for a moment. However, he quickly recovered and frowned, "Girls have to look like girls. Go back and quickly change back!"

Although Chiang Kaiwen had already known from her aunt and uncle that her grandpa was a serious and stubborn man, a part of the reason why Lin Mei didn't return home before was due to Lin De.

However, she didn't expect to be scolded after just a few minutes of meeting.

Chiang Kaiwen smiled at him. "You're right."

Lin De nodded in satisfaction. He didn't realize that Chiang Kaiwen's smile faded a little when she said that. What she said was' you're right ', but she didn't say' I'll change it when I get back '.

Chiang Kaiwen had never been someone who listened to what others said.

Lin Fengmao and Guo Caiyun, who had a certain understanding of her, felt a sense of unease.

The two of them wanted to persuade Chiang Kaiwen not to lower herself to the old man's level, but they were dragged by Lin Lan to look after the child. They could only bury their worries aside.

Guo Caiyun asked, "Lan, when we first came here, we thought there was a fork in the road. Why are you still not working at the table even at this time?"

Lin Lan let out a cold snort and picked up the crying child. She fed the child while saying, "Why didn't I do it? It's in the child's grandma's yard."

Guo Caiyun frowned, "Weren't you guys separated long ago? It should be done here. How can I go back to my mother's place? "

Lin Lan sneered incessantly, "People say that Yongping's brother was in his yard when he set up the table, and we can't be an exception. Why didn't they think about it? They still hadn't split up their family, and they were the ones who paid for their sister-in-law's hospitalization. When we got here, we paid for the hospitalization ourselves. Yuezi didn't serve her and still had to set up a table in their courtyard. Do you think I don't know what they are thinking? Isn't it just that they want a share of the money from the big guys? "

Lin Lan gritted her teeth in anger. "If it wasn't for Mom and Dad stopping me, I would have already gone to them for revenge." As he said that, he glared at Zhang Yongping, who was smiling apologetically.

Lin Fengmao was furious after hearing that. His brother-in-law had originally been rather pleasing to the eye, but now, no matter how he looked at it, he was annoyed.

Zhang Yongping also felt bitter in his heart. Of course, he was also very unhappy with his parents' way of doing things, but so what?

On one side was his parents, who had raised him, and on the other was his wife, who had shared hardships with him. Fortunately, even though his wife was good at talking, she understood his predicament and didn't force him to ask for money.

Of course, Nie Caiju could understand how difficult this was. However, she also knew that it would not be beneficial for her daughter to go against her father-in-law alone. A long period of time would also harm the relationship between him and his son-in-law. After all, they were the ones who were loyal to him. She could only persuade her daughter to bear with it. She could only bear with it until her son-in-law couldn't bear it any longer. Then, she would obtain victory.

Lin De was also angry, but he did not say anything. It was because his mother had treated Grandma Lin like this back then, but back then, he had only told Nie Caiju to be patient. If he were to stand up for his daughter now, it would mean that he had done something wrong. The only thing he could do was to make some delicious food for his daughter as compensation.

A few years ago, Lin De was a famous chef in the Eight Sects. In the past, anyone with a happy occasion would be willing to treat him to a banquet. However, although it was delicious, he had never cooked at home. This was the first time he cooked for Lin Lan.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Chiang Kaiwen smiled and placed a red packet under the baby's pillow, "I wish the baby a healthy growth."

Lin Lan didn't expect Chiang Kaiwen to give her child a red packet. Here, anyone who wasn't married wouldn't need to bother with gifts.

She shook her head, "No, Wen. You are still a child. My aunt cannot take your money. Zhang Yongping, what are you looking at? Hurry up and return the red packet to Wen. "

Zhang Yongping just couldn't react in time. After hearing his wife's words, he quickly went over to take out the red packet and stuffed it into Chiang Kaiwen's hands, "Wen, no need, really no need."

Chiang Kaiwen's agility made her easily get rid of Zhang Yongping. She smiled and said, "Aunt, Uncle, please accept it. I didn't take back what I gave her."

Chiang Kaiwen's voice was neither light nor loud, but her tone was firm and decisive, emitting a powerful aura which made everyone present submit to her subconsciously. At this moment, no one treated her as a child anymore.

After Lin Lan woke up, she couldn't help but sigh. The young people in the city these days were truly amazing. No wonder everyone wanted to go to the city.

She didn't know that Chiang Kaiwen was such a freak in the city.

At this moment, the baby in Lin Lan's embrace was full and no longer crying. Its big black eyes were rolling around.

Chiang Kaiwen felt an itch in her heart.

Lin Lan could see her desire. "Wen, don't you want to hug your brother?"

Chiang Kaiwen wanted to extend her hand but did not dare to. "Forget it."

Lin Lan just mischievously threw the child into Chiang Kaiwen's arms.

Chiang Kaiwen quickly reached out to hug him. When her soft body that was filled with the fragrance of milk entered her hands, her entire body froze.

She was too small and too soft. She only needed to use a little bit of strength to break the child. In order to prevent any accidents, she could only use her two arms to hold the child, not daring to move.

Lin Family Member did not expect that the niece who had a strong aura did not know what to do at that moment.
