The back garden of the old residence was not big. In the past, there was a small pavilion used to admire flowers. Later, when the pavilion was gone, a tea room was built. Sometimes, Old Master would play chess and chat with his good friends in the tea room.
"Alright. Follow me out to greet them first. Then, you can ask your Grandma to come out. Be quick and don't drag your feet."
The old master walked very quickly with his walking cane. The sound of footsteps approached from afar. Ye Jian, who was sitting in the main hall, straightened her back when she heard this.
Grandpa Xia was promoted to the founding lieutenant general in the 50s to 60s. He was also the youngest lieutenant general at that time. As a soldier, she had a natural fear of the founding lieutenant general.
Ye Jian couldn't help but stand up when she heard the powerful sounds.
She was very nervous. Even though she had a good mentality, when she suddenly came to see her boyfriend's grandpa and grandma… her mentality weakened. It seemed to shatter into pieces with the gentlest touch.
"Don't be nervous. The old general is very kind. He's not that scary." Li Jinnian saw that she was so nervous that she stood up and couldn't help but accompany her. "Just call him Grandpa Xia when you see him."
"Okay." Ye Jian nodded slightly and stiffly. She wanted to smile, but she realized that her skin and nerves seemed to be frozen. She was so stiff that she couldn't squeeze out a smile!
She had to be calm. She couldn't lose face.
The sound of footsteps got closer and closer. Ye Jian realized that she was so nervous that she was clenching her fists. She opened her palms, which were filled with sweat.
She wiped them on her pants silently and took deep breaths continuously. She adjusted her mentality again. She didn't hope to calm down, but she hoped that her face wouldn't be so stiff.
When Grandpa Xia walked over, even though he was dressed simply and even held an old fan in his hand, his aura made Ye Jian stand at attention and salute.
"Old Chief."
A clear and sharp voice filled with the might of a soldier was heard. It was Ye Jian's voice.
Her restrained voice immediately attracted Grandpa Xia's attention.
He saw a young lady in a military uniform with clear eyes. She stood straight and looked straight ahead at the side of the main hall. Her clear eyes made the old master, who had been a soldier for his entire life, have a good impression of her.
This young lady was not bad!
Xia Jinyuan saw that his girlfriend, who came to the old residence for the first time, was nervous. She was so nervous that she subconsciously saluted. His handsome eyes were filled with a gentle smile.
He had always wanted to bring her back to the old residence to see his grandpa and grandma, but he didn't put it into action. He kept dragging it out until today. Today, he wasn't even the one who brought the little fox over. It was Grandpa Fu and the Demon King who brought her along.
The old man didn't bring her here specially to visit. Instead, she was just accompanying the old man out to visit his friend. She didn't come to the old residence as his girlfriend either. Instead, she came as the old man's granddaughter.
Although the meaning was different, it was the same as his original intention. He could let his grandpa and grandma see the little fox and make the old madam feel more at ease.
Grandpa Xia was really relieved now!
Grandpa Xia, who came to see his good friend and his future granddaughter-in-law, laughed loudly. "Little Ye, right? Hahaha, there's no need to be so polite. I'm not a chief anymore. You can just call me 'Grandpa' like what Little Six calls me.
"Grandpa sounds so amiable. I prefer you call me that."
