Chapter 363: Finding Excuses to Visit the Old Jian Residence

You silly old woman, if our darling takes her college entrance exams ahead of time, she will have to go to university afterward! If she wants to attend a really good university, wouldnt she have to go to another city?

Oh, thats true! Grandma Jian suddenly realized.

That was a big deal!

Jian Yiling was studying locally for high school, however, she wouldnt necessarily study locally for university!

Initially, there would be still two and a half years before Jian Yiling went to university. However, that time frame had suddenly been shortened to six months!

Grandpa Jian continued to mutter unhappily: And youre still asking me why Ive been unhappy? She hasnt even stayed with us for a long time. And now, shes going to leave so soon. Why would you be happy about this?

After realizing this, Grandma Jian was indeed not happy anymore.

Then, Grandpa Jian suggested to Grandma Jian: Hey, old woman, why dont you suggest to Yiling to study at a local university? I think Hengyuan University is not bad. Its one of the best universities around here.

No, no. Youre being unreasonable. Shes grown up already. You cant restrain her like that.

Grandma Jian was determined to not do this.

She didnt want to keep her darling to herself. She wanted to support her granddaughter to do what she wanted to do. She didnt want to hold Yiling back.

As Grandma Jian and Grandpa Jian argued about Yilings future, Wen Nuan and Jian Yuncheng arrived at the Old Jian Residence.

Grandma Jian said in a bad mood: Can you guys stop coming over as soon as something happens? The excuses that you guys are finding are terrible.

As her motive got exposed by Grandma Jian, Wen Nuan retorted in a quiet voice: Then why dont you let us take Yiling back home? We wont have to find excuses to come to the Old Jian Residence anymore.

Wen Nuan felt a bit upset. However, she didnt have much confidence in her words.

No! That wont do! Since ancient times, its hard for a girl to come back once shes been sent out of the house! Grandma Jian replied with an unfriendly tone. Despite this, she still cared inside.

Either way, she wouldnt listen to their suggestion! They couldnt take Yiling away from her! Her darling had said that she wanted to stay with her!

Its still the Jian household though, Wen Nuan said in a hurry.

Grandma Jian turned her head to speak to Grandpa Jian: Grandpa Jian, our family has already split up, right? Our sons have all gone to live in their own homes, havent they? Doesnt that mean that were not in the same family anymore?

Yeah, weve split. We have nothing to do with them anymore.

Grandpa Jian waved his hand and had an expression of disdain on his face.

Then, Grandma Jian added: Besides, Yiling said that shes willing to live with us. Its useless for you to say anything else.

The old couple who had just been arguing about their darlings future were now united against the outsiders.

But youre still my parents-in-law. That means I can come back to visit you right? Cant I bring my other children to your house? Theres no rule that says that I, as a daughter-in-law, cant visit every day right?

Wen Nuan started to act shamelessly as well.

Even if she couldnt take Jian Yiling away with her, Wen Nuan refused to leave easily with just a few words from Grandma and Grandpa Jian.

She had found a good excuse today. And thus, she was determined to have dinner with her daughter before she went home.

Furthermore, she would find excuses to visit, tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that as well.

Nowadays, they felt that their daughter was becoming more and more distant from them. She had her own social circles that were completely separate from theirs.

The news of Jian Yilings involvement with the Huiling Medical Research Institution and Dr. F.S. meant that their daughter was quite capable and had good future prospects. However, at the same time, this meant that their daughter had become independent on her own.

The distance between them and her was growing.

If they didnt visit the Old Jian Residence more often, they might not have the chance to be close to their daughter in the future.

Wen Nuan felt incredibly sad as she thought about this.
