The City's Strongest Son-in-law-Chapter 1057 - 1056: Professional Freeloader

"Grandpa, in a while, the Ye Family will have ancestral rites, and I want to push the schedule forward, so we can have a good New Year’s in Jiang City," Su Changfeng suggested.

Even if Su Changfeng didn’t suggest it, Ye Qingtian was planning the same. After all, he was very aware that in Su Changfeng’s heart, Jiang City was his home, and Beijing was just a place; there was nothing there worth being nostalgic for, and he didn’t have any good impressions of it. If Su Changfeng were to spend New Year’s in Beijing, it would surely be unhappy.

"I also planned to do this earlier. Since you have the same idea, let’s arrange the ancestral rites for tomorrow," Ye Qingtian said.

Su Changfeng felt that indeed they should go early and return early. After all, he was reluctant to go to Beijing, but as a descendant of the Ye Family, he had to go. Returning earlier from the ancestral rites would settle some worries, but going to Beijing tomorrow seemed a bit too rushed.

Because originally, Su Changfeng planned to properly arrange matters with Zhao Xiaona and Chen Qingqing in the next couple of days.

Zhao Xiaona’s husband unexpectedly passed away many years ago, so since then, she has remained in Jiang City. Even during New Year’s, she hasn’t gone back to her hometown, fearing gossip from people there.

This is why Zhao Xiaona hadn’t returned to her hometown for so many years. So while he was still around and it happened to be New Year’s, Su Changfeng wanted to go back and visit with Zhao Xiaona.

"Sister Zhao, what are your plans for New Year’s this year? Do you want to go back to your hometown?" Even though Su Changfeng was planning, it was ultimately Zhao Xiaona’s decision.

Return to her hometown?

Anxious at hearing the suggestion to return to her hometown, Zhao Xiaona’s expression changed instantly. She hadn’t been back for years, and she always wanted to, but even though Shen Hanxue didn’t want to face it, the time was right there, and she had to ask because she feared Su Changfeng might suddenly vanish.

"Maybe after New Year’s, I will have to leave," Su Changfeng sighed.

Though Shen Hanxue guessed it would be this time, hearing it from Su Changfeng’s mouth made her reluctant to accept it.

Actually, Shen Hanxue was very conflicted. On one hand, she kept telling herself that she shouldn’t affect Su Changfeng this way, that she must help take care of things back home so he wouldn’t be distracted; on the other hand, her heart was telling her not to let Su Changfeng go because he was deeply embedded in her life, and she felt she couldn’t be without him.

"Take good care of yourself, I will certainly take care of Ye Nianhai, don’t worry." Shen Hanxue said gently.

"With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for? Even if I burden the world, I will never burden you." Su Changfeng said solemnly.

With a slight nod from Shen Hanxue, the two just quietly leaned against each other. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The next day, when Su Changfeng and Shen Hanxue woke up, it was already noon, and they went downstairs to find lunch was ready.

The others were aware that Su Changfeng went out drinking last night and returned late, so they kept their movements light, not wanting to disturb him.

Though when Su Changfeng got out of bed, he was in a fairly good mood; once he went downstairs and saw Elder Wu at the dining table, he became a bit displeased.

"Old guy, what’s going on with you, coming to my house for food right when I wake up? If you’re really broke, I’ll give you the money." Su Changfeng said helplessly, looking at Elder Wu.

Elder Wu remained in place, unmoved by Su Changfeng’s words, and he didn’t get angry either. He completely ignored Changfeng, turning to Zhao Xiaona and said, "Where did you learn your cooking skills? These dishes are so delicious, better than those in big restaurants."

Zhao Xiaona felt awkward. She understood Elder Wu wanted to ignore Su Changfeng with such remarks, so she didn’t respond to Elder Wu.

"You’re an adult, calling yourself an elder. Aren’t you embarrassed by your thick skin?" Su Changfeng didn’t hold back even if Elder Wu ignored him, despite guessing Elder Wu’s real identity, his words were sharp.

"Isn’t New Year’s coming soon? Over the years, I’ve almost forgotten what New Year feels like; just let me experience it here with you, why not?" Elder Wu said.

"You experience what you want, but after lunch, don’t come to my house." Su Changfeng coldly replied.

Although Changfeng had set a deadline for Elder Wu, the latter remained indifferent, as if he hadn’t heard Su Changfeng’s words, and seemed set on freeloading.

By Elder Wu’s side, Yang Junming was filled with anxiety because at Tuo Shi, nobody dared act so recklessly before Elder Wu let alone how Su Changfeng would later join Tuo Shi and become Elder Wu’s disciple, yet he was so rude to Elder Wu now.
