38: Chapter 38 Warm Hearts, We are a Family_1 38: Chapter 38 Warm Hearts, We are a Family_1 …

As soon as Nanxi walked through the gate of the Liang Family’s residence, she heard her grandmother’s hearty and kind laughter.

Her grandmother was delighted!

The scent of cuisine wafted from the kitchen.

Someone was cooking – her uncle was in the kitchen himself!

Nanxi glanced towards Liang Qiaoqiao who stood beside her.

Qiaoqiao looked as usual, stepping in past Nanxi and kicking her high heels aside, replacing them with slippers to tread forward.

The sound of grandma came, “Qiaoqiao and Nanxi are back!”

After putting on her slippers as per house rules, Nanxi saw her grandma and a middle-aged woman in her forties chatting in the living room.

They held each other’s hands, appearing very affectionate.

Grandmother introduced them, “Nanxi, Qiaoqiao, come over, this is Aunt Xu.

I’ve specially invited her to our home for dinner today…”

The woman named Xu Mei was 42 this year.

She looked a bit older than her age.

She had a simple and unpretentious demeanor, with visible crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes.

She wore glasses, much like Nanxi’s uncle.

Her semi-long hair was curled slightly, likely done up specially for coming to the Liang Family home.

She wore a mild makeup, appearing modest and gentle.

Nanxi and Qiaoqiao greeted her, “Aunt Xu!”

Xu Mei smiled and after making polite conversation, she turned to grandma and said, “Just as you said, your granddaughters are like characters walked out from a painting.

Not a single flaw to point out!”

Nanxi blushed and lowered her head.

The meal was prepared by her uncle himself.

Nanxi noticed that he was quite nervous.

However, she thought, for her uncle to cook personally, it must mean he was satisfied with this woman.

At 54, a single man finding a single woman of 42 should be quite fulfilling for him.

At the dinner table, Uncle didn’t talk much, and neither did Qiaoqiao.
