Reborn as a Rich Woman in the Eighties-Chapter 770 - 769: Where Do You Think You’re Going!

After returning, Qin Zeming and the others went back to their rooms to rest, while Lin Xia and Lu Zheng drove Lin Chun and the other two to visit Auntie Zhao.

They didn’t return often, and they planned to take this opportunity to visit her while they had the time.

Lin Xia had previously asked over the phone for her specific address.

When they drove to that area with single-story houses, they found Auntie Zhao’s home without much effort.

By the time they arrived, the other members of Auntie Zhao’s family hadn’t come back from work yet, and only Auntie Zhao and her grandson, Xuewen, were at home.

Auntie Zhao was sitting on the kang in the house watching TV when she inadvertently saw several people with gifts coming in from outside.

At first, she was startled and then happily put on her shoes to greet them.

"Godmother! We’ve come to see you! Your home is just like you said, really easy to find!"

This was Lin Xia’s first visit to Auntie Zhao’s new home after they had moved due to the demolition. The living room was spacious and bright as she walked in and the bedrooms no longer had traditional kang beds.

Auntie Zhao had aged a bit, her hair was much whiter than before, and though her face had many wrinkles, her eyes were bright and she was spirited.

"Didn’t I say it was easy to find? I knew you’d be able to find it once you returned!" Auntie Zhao excitedly grabbed Lin Xia’s hand, "Lin Xia! When did you all come back? What brings you here all together?"

She guessed that they must have returned for some specific reason.

Lin Xia replied, "We just got back today! We came back to relocate our mother’s grave!"

"Ah!" Auntie Zhao’s expression changed slightly, not feeling it appropriate to ask more.

She warmly invited them in, "Then please, sit down! Xuewen! Hurry and call everyone! This is your aunt, your uncle, and those are your other aunts and uncles!"

Xuewen had grown quite a bit, his small frame sturdier than when he was younger, and his features had begun to develop.

Obediently, Xuewen greeted everyone.

Lin Xia noticed he was missing a front tooth and vaguely remembered what Xuewen looked like as a little boy; she liked to playfully ruffle his short hair, "Xuewen should be in primary school by now, right?"

Auntie Zhao replied with a smile, "Right! He’s in the second half of the school year now! He’ll be in the second grade once school starts again!"

"How are his studies?"

"Quite good!"

Auntie Zhao told Xuewen to continue diligently with his homework at the table while she busied herself pouring water and washing fruit for Lin Xia and the others.

Lin Xia tried to stop her, "Godmother! We’re not strangers! Please, don’t go to all this trouble! We just came to see how you were doing and we’ll leave after a short chat!"

All of them were very grateful for Auntie Zhao’s kindness. Since they rarely came back and happened to have the time, they couldn’t not come to visit.

As for Luo Xinyan, who lived in the city, Lin Xia and the others didn’t think they would have time to visit and would have to wait until the next time they returned.

"Leaving so soon? You’ve just arrived at my house and you’re already thinking of leaving!" Auntie Zhao said firmly, "You must at least stay for dinner before leaving! Your uncles will be back from work soon!

If you leave, I’ll be upset! From then on, no one is allowed to step into my home!"

Lin Xia chuckled and agreed to stay, "Alright, alright! We’ll eat at your place, okay? Godmother, you’re still so formidable!"

Auntie Zhao sat down and took Lin Xia’s hand to chat, "Lin Xia, your kids must be growing up well! You didn’t bring them along, did you?"

"We didn’t bring the kids! My mother-in-law is looking after them! They already started to crawl!" Lin Xia spoke of her two children with tenderness in her eyes.

Auntie Zhao sighed regretfully, "I really wanted to visit when you just had your babies! But I couldn’t leave home! I don’t even know what your children look like now!"

Lin Xia originally wanted to go to the provincial capital to breastfeed when she had her baby, but she really couldn’t get away from home, so in the end, she could only send some stuff by mail.

"Godmother! There are photos! I especially brought two back for you!" Lin Xia took out photos of Jingjing and Keke from her bag for Auntie Zhao.

Auntie Zhao specially got her reading glasses from the cupboard and put them on, holding the photos and clicking her tongue in delight, her tone filled with immense admiration, "These two kids are so handsome! Just look at them, they’re definitely blessed! Look at these big ears, Lin Xia, you really know how to have them! A son and a daughter, just perfect!"

Who wouldn’t be happy to hear their children being praised?

Not to mention Lin Xia, even Lu Zheng’s eyes revealed a strong smile.

He wasn’t unfamiliar with Jiang Mingyuan’s mother, but this was still his first visit to Jiang Mingyuan’s home, so he couldn’t help but be curious about Jiang Mingyuan’s situation.

However, he felt it wasn’t appropriate to ask directly, believing he would find out after a while.

As expected, after everyone had talked about the children for a while, Auntie Zhao also started talking about her family’s situation.

"Your second brother and Xiaoqing both have partners now!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xia and the others were quite happy for Auntie Zhao; they knew how she used to be so anxious about her children’s marriages, asking anyone she could to set them up with someone.

Lin Xia asked curiously, "Really? What do they do?"

"Xiaoqing’s partner is a colleague from her school, a pretty good fellow! But they have only been dating for a short time!

Your second brother’s partner works in the same company! The girl is good-looking and a nice person! She was introduced by a leader who frequents his restaurant!

She even came to our home to have dinner twice, looks pretty good, really nice!

If they don’t get married this year, they definitely will next year! They’re getting on in years now; we can’t put it off any longer! When I saw your children today, it made me even more eager!"

Lin Xia sincerely said, "When the time comes, you must tell us, and we’ll come back for the wedding feast!"

Godmother and second brother were kind to her; she would definitely attend his wedding.

"Of course! You are my goddaughter, and if your older brothers are too busy to come back, that’s okay, but you must come! It would be best if you could bring your children too, let me meet them!"

"Sure! I will definitely come back! And I’ll try to bring the kids too!"

Lin Xia and Lin Qiu helped Auntie Zhao cook, chopping and washing vegetables, lending a hand.

When Uncle Jiang and Jiang Mingzhi returned from work one after another and saw that Lin Xia and the others were visiting, they too showed great enthusiasm.

Uncle Jiang was drinking with Lu Zheng and the others at the table, and he didn’t forget to mention the sausages made by Lin Xia, "Xiaolin, it’s still your sausages that are the tastiest! Your godmother later tried to buy meat and ingredients to make some several times, but couldn’t capture the flavor you had!"

Lin Xia was very happy that the things she made were so popular, "Then when I go back, I’ll make some more and mail it to you guys!"

"That’s very kind of you! I won’t be polite with you then!"

"Why would you be polite with me!" Lin Xia felt Uncle Jiang had a particularly nice character and she really liked the atmosphere of his home.

Auntie Zhao helplessly rolled her eyes at her husband, "Aren’t you embarrassed, asking the child for food!"

Letting down his liquor cup, Uncle Jiang muttered, "What are you talking about, woman? Am I really in need of something to eat? Doesn’t our second son have all kinds of food at his restaurant? It’s just that I like the taste that Xiaolin makes!"

"Alright, alright! My mistake!" Auntie Zhao called out to Lin Xia and the others, "Come on, eat the dishes! Help yourselves more!"

After the meal, Auntie Zhao and her family accompanied Lin Xia and her group to the door.

As everyone was waving goodbye, a woman riding a lady’s bike arrived nearby.
