I'm back in 1990

Chapter 459: Granny Liu Enters the Grand View Garden

Mai Guangde didn't say much to Huang Erhe along the way, because he knew that his boss didn't like others talking too much.

Fortunately, Huang Erhe didn't ask him anything, and he escorted the family of three to the front of the garden villa where the boss used to live, where the boss's parents now lived.

After getting off the bus, Huang Erhe looked at the grand mansion in disbelief and pointed to the old house, asking Mai Guangde, "My parents and my younger brother live here?"

Mai Guangde nodded: "Yes, I'll ring the doorbell for you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mai Guangde rang the doorbell. A dog barked inside, and then someone scolded the barking dog. The door opened, but it was a woman in her forties who opened it.

Upon seeing the family of three holding their child, the woman exclaimed with delight towards the courtyard, "Sister Zeng, your second son and his family are here!"

Seeing that someone had come to pick up Huang Erhe's family, Mai Guangde greeted Huang Erhe and left first.

At this moment, Zeng Lijuan came out of the house to greet them. Seeing her second son's family standing at the gate of the yard, hesitant to come in, she quickly called out, "Erhe, come in quickly! We're home!"

Upon seeing his elderly mother, Huang Erhe quickly called out, "Mom!"

Then he urged Fan Yingrong and Maowa, "Quickly greet her! Maowa, this is your grandma, the grandma who often sends you things!"

Fan Yingrong then called out, "Mom!"

Maowa glanced shyly at Zeng Lijuan a few times before weakly calling out "Grandma," then snuggled back into Fan Yingrong's arms. Zeng Lijuan had been listening intently, waiting for Maowa to call her that. When she heard "Grandma," Zeng Lijuan's heart melted, and she immediately took Maowa from Fan Yingrong's arms and held him in her own.

"Oh! My dearest grandma!"

Then he quickly called to his son and daughter-in-law, "Erhe, Yingrong, let's go home!"

Huang Erhe carried his luggage and followed his elderly mother into the courtyard, holding Fan Yingrong's hand with his other hand.

The couple were stunned by what they saw. This courtyard was so beautiful!

It was May, and the courtyard was full of spring, with all kinds of flowers blooming. In particular, the rose wall on the pavilion not far away was covered with brightly colored roses, which was breathtakingly beautiful!

Moreover, there was a small pond in the middle of the courtyard, which was filled with a large group of koi, each one plump and large. You should know that water is quite precious in Shanxi Province, and even wealthy families in the past did not have such a pond.

The short distance of just over thirty meters from the gate to the house shocked the couple. Looking at the yard and then at the house, Huang Erhe turned to look at Fan Yingrong, who shared the same expression.

The couple was once again amazed upon entering the house. The house was beyond beautiful; the decor and furnishings made it feel incredibly comfortable.

Just then, Old Huang came downstairs. Huang Erhe quickly pulled Fan Yingrong's hand and shouted to Old Huang, "Dad!"

Fan Yingrong also called out, "Dad!"

Old Huang nodded: "We're home. Order whatever you like, put your things down quickly, and sit down to rest!"

Huang Erhe put down his luggage and looked around, trying to find a place to put it.

At this moment, the woman in her forties took the luggage from Huang Erhe's hands: "Give me the things!"

And so, without Huang Erhe's knowledge, the woman took his luggage.

When Old Huang saw the baby in Zeng Lijuan's arms, his eyes lit up. He approached the baby with a kind expression, clapped his hands, and said, "Baby! I'm your grandpa. Can grandpa hold you?"

It was the first time Maowa had met Lao Huang. Because of the unfamiliar environment, he was a little scared, so he didn't respond to Lao Huang. Instead, he leaned out from Zeng Lijuan, reached out his hands, and looked aggrieved, asking Fan Yingrong to hug him.

"Mommy, hug me!"

Zeng Lijuan had no choice but to hand her grandson over to her daughter-in-law. After all, he hadn't grown up by her side, so it was normal for him to feel a sense of unfamiliarity. In her opinion, he was just a child, and he would get used to it in a few days.

Zeng Lijuan gestured for her second son and his family of three to sit down quickly.

After sitting down, Huang Erhe finally had a chance to ask the question that had been bothering him: "Mom, whose house is this?"

"Xiao Chuan's house was originally for your maternal grandmother, but she refused to live here and moved to live with your uncle. Such a big house can't be left empty, so your father and I moved here after we came to Shanghai."

"Xiao Chuan's house? When did he buy it? Didn't they say he had twins? Where are the two kids?" Huang Erhe looked around, but he didn't see the two children in the house. However, there were quite a few toys.

Zeng Lijuan explained to Huang Erhe: "Xiao Chuan and Yu Xiang don't live here. They live on Sinan Road with their children. It's close to the hospital where Yu Xiang works, just across the street. Xiao Duo and Xiao Dong are being taken care of by themselves."

Hearing his elderly mother's words, Huang Erhe mistakenly assumed that the house on Sinan Road was a welfare housing unit provided by Yu Xiang's work unit: "They have houses elsewhere? Is this a hospital in a big city? The benefits are so good, even Yu Xiang got a house?"

"It's not a house that was allocated."

Before Zeng Lijuan could finish speaking, Lao Huang interrupted the mother and daughter.

"Alright! This is never going to end. Come on, let's go upstairs. I'll take you to your room first, and you can tell your mom if you need anything!"

Zeng Lijuan also realized what was going on: "Yes, yes, go to your room first and see if you need anything. If you have any questions, you can ask Xiaochuan when he comes tonight."

The elderly couple led their second son's family upstairs to the bedroom, which was actually a suite, formerly the room of the aunt and uncle. It not only had a bathroom but also a large walk-in closet. The whole room looked very cozy, and there was a faint fragrance in the room that smelled very nice. It was the scent of agarwood, which helps to calm the mind.

Zeng Lijuan led Fan Yingrong into the bathroom: "Yingrong! There's hot water in the bathroom, you can take a shower anytime. You must be tired from the journey, right? Take a shower first to refresh yourself, then rest for a while before coming downstairs for dinner. Here are some bath towels and bathrobes. Put your clothes in this basket, the housekeeper will take them to wash."

Fan Yingrong felt like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden. She never imagined that her in-laws would live such a comfortable life in Shanghai. In her mind, she still remembered the house in the Qingjiang Transportation Bureau's family compound. Even after learning that her in-laws had come to Shanghai, she never thought they would live in such a house.

Isn't it said that people from Shanghai don't live in very spacious houses? Why does my mother-in-law's family live in such a big house?

In Fan Yingrong's mind, she always thought that Shanghai was a place suitable for shopping and having fun, but not for living. Movies, TV shows and novels always depicted Shanghai people living in attics and small rooms, while her own family lived in a small county town, but their home was so spacious!

I only learned today that not all of Shanghai is like that. Fan Yingrong quickly fell in love with this house and thought it was great from every angle.

After her in-laws finally left the room, leaving only the three of them, Fan Yingrong eagerly asked Huang Erhe, "Erhe, what's going on with this family?"

Huang Erhe was also somewhat confused. He had been away from home for many years and didn't know much more than Fan Yingrong.

"I heard my mom say before that my younger brother earned some money when he was in college, but I don't know exactly how much."

Fan Yingrong pointed to the house: "Did we make a little profit?"

Huang Erhe was also confused, and he didn't want to keep guessing: "Alright, take Maowa to take a bath first, and you'll know when you see my brother tonight!"

Fan Yingrong immediately objected: "You'll take Maowa for a bath later. He's a boy, don't always make me take him. Go find my change of clothes, I'm going to take a shower first!"

Fan Yingrong glanced at her son, who was intently playing with his toys, before finally going into the bathroom with peace of mind.

After taking a shower, while Huang Erhe was taking Maowa to bathe, Fan Yingrong carefully looked around the bedroom. She never expected her brother-in-law to be so rich.

Fan Yingrong regretted not attending her brother-in-law's wedding, but she thought it was still possible to mend the relationship. Her parents-in-law were very welcoming, and her brother-in-law even arranged for someone to pick her up from the train station.

With this in mind, Fan Yingrong had some ideas.
