A vicious look flashed past Madam Li's eyes. She patted the back of Madam Xiao's hand lightly. She seemed to be comforting her good friend, but an unfathomable smile appeared on her face.
Xia Jinyuan knew that Madam Xiao was coming and was removing insects in the old madam's greenhouse. When he knew that Madam Xiao was here, his facial expressions turned pale. Even his gaze turned cold.
"Does she come over often to disturb you and Grandma?"
He put down the tweezers used to catch insects. His handsome eyes were cold. "How many times has she come? Most of the time, she comes to disturb Grandma, right?"
"I don't remember. I only know that she's too close to the Du family now. Every time she comes back, she'll be accompanied by the madam of the Li family. Every time she comes back, your Grandma will sigh for a few days.
"Little Six, your grandmother and I are on your side. Go and make things clear to her so that she'll give up on wanting to be close to you.
"It's been decades, and she finally remembers that she has a son. If she wants to acknowledge you as her son, she first has to get my permission!
"I definitely don't agree. Go over and tell her that the Xia family disapproves of her!"
The old master was a principled person. He had been a soldier his entire life. He was iron-blooded, so ordinary people wouldn't dare to be impudent in front of him.
Hence, every time Madam Xiao came over, she only dared to disturb the old madam and not cause trouble in front of the old master.
Xia Jinyuan, who grew up in his grandparents' house, had inherited everything from the old master. Ordinary people did not dare to provoke him either. At that time, children four or five years older than him could bully other children easily, but they never dared to bully Xia Jinyuan.
Everyone knew that Xia Jinyuan was not to be trifled with. If they angered him, no one would have a good life.
Madam Xiao had indeed crossed Xia Jinyuan's bottom line this time. He had told her not to disturb the two elders, but she didn't listen.
His gaze was cold as he turned off the water pipe. He walked to the washbasin and washed the sweat off his face. Even his eyelashes were wet with water droplets. He said to the old master, "I've made you worry about me. Leave this matter to me.
"It's already past three in the afternoon. You should go back to your room and rest for a while. I'll go and receive her. You and Grandma can rest."
"Okay, I'll return with your Grandma. She's the soft-hearted one. I have to let her stay in the house. I can't let your mother plead with her." Since his grandson was here to handle things, Old Master shook his old fan and stood up slowly.
Xia Jinyuan handed over the walking cane and helped the old master back to the house.
Before they walked out of the garden, a servant guarding outside ran over and brought Xia Jinyuan a… surprise.
"Quick, quick, please take a seat in the main hall!" The old master was the happiest. He didn't have the mood to go back to his room to rest anymore. However, he became a little worried. "That old man came over on such a hot day. Did something happen?"
What?
The little fox returned to Dangui Garden with the Demon King. The old man should be happy. How could he have encountered anything?
Xia Jinyuan held back his surprise and asked uncertainly, "Who accompanied the old man here?"
"The old man's granddaughter and grandson are accompanying him."
The servant's reply made Xia Jinyuan's cold and sharp eyes soften. He raised his eyebrows and said to the old master, "Your future granddaughter-in-law is here. You can meet her today."
His future granddaughter-in-law was here… The old master was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He said to Xia Jinyuan, "Hurry up and ask your grandmother to come out too. I'll go and accompany your Grandpa first. Hurry up! They came all the way over to visit us. We can't be rude."
