Chapter 377: 246 Becoming a Landlady, Wuye’s Flirtatious Confession (Two More Chapters)

Exiting Peach Garden as dusk fell, the setting sun filtered through the car window, casting a particularly gentle glow on everything.

The old lady removed her glasses, pinching the bridge of her nose with an exhausted expression, "Wanwan, when are you going back to Pingjiang?"

She also needed to return ahead of time to prepare for the engagement.

"In a few days."

Originally, she should have been at home dealing with the engagement matters. After all, they had to host the banquet in Pingjiang, and the family was full of elderly people who should not be constantly burdened. As soon as her work was done, she planned to head back as soon as possible.

Although it meant that she and Jiang Jinsang would be living apart, once the engagement was over and the marriage was scheduled, she wouldn’t care about this small span of time.

"The day after tomorrow," the old lady, clenching her glasses frame against the light, inspected the lenses, "is that child’s death anniversary. If you’re free, I’ll take you to see him. He used to dote on Xiaowu a lot. He would be happy to know about his engagement."

"He really was..."

"Xiaowu is frail and always faking sickness for sympathy. Even though we knew he was pretending, Jinsang was the only one in the family who went along with it. The child is just too kind-hearted. He was taken advantage of a few times. We’ve told him not to bother with Xiaowu, but whenever he got something delicious or fun, he would always think of him first."

Her voice choked up, and whenever she mentioned her grandson who had passed away too soon, her eyes would redden with tears. Tang Wan nodded in agreement, not inquiring any further.
