She said earnestly, “Because of your father, the Du family and the Xia family are at odds with each other. You have to be careful.”

“Don’t worry about what’s happening outside. With us around, nothing will happen. You’re tired. I’ll accompany you back to your room to rest.”

“No, no. I want to chat with my granddaughter-in-law. You have good taste. I like young ladies like Little Ye who have firm gazes and opinions but are never domineering.

“Let her chat with me. I can be happy for a few days after that. It’s unfortunate that she has to leave tonight. If not, I really want her to sleep here.”

At the thought of her future granddaughter-in-law sitting in the back garden, the tiredness on the old madam’s face seemed to have been swept away. She teased, “You, work harder and marry Little Ye quickly.”

What happened just now didn’t seem to affect the old madam at all. It was like a small stone thrown into the sea. It didn’t even cause a small splash.

Ye Jian had already looked outside a few times. She was a little worried.

“Do you want me to accompany you to take a look?” Li Jinnian could tell that she was worried. He said softly, “The chess game won’t end immediately. Go over and take a look before coming back.”

Ye Jian really wanted to take a look, but she remembered that this was her first time here. It would be rude to run over rashly. Ye Jian pursed her lips and said softly, “No, let’s wait.”

She heard a servant from the Xia family coming over to tell the old madam something, but she couldn’t hear much. She only heard the servant mention Madam Xiao and the smile in the old madam’s eyes disappeared.

Now, it had been half an hour since the old madam left. Ye Jian couldn’t sit still.

The fact that the old madam and Captain Xia had yet to come back was most likely related to Madam Xiao.

Looking at the two elders who were focused on playing chess and not distracted by the outside world, Ye Jian took a few deep breaths in a row, trying to calm her heart.

The tea room was very simple. It was similar to Grandpa Fu’s tea room. There were two separate spaces separated by a frosted lattice sliding door. One was used for chess while the other was used for tea. Through the sliding door, one could only see the figures of the people in the rooms.

Even though she could only see figures, Ye Jian didn’t dare to move. She sat obediently and waited for Xia Jinyuan to come back.

After another five minutes, Xia Jinyuan came back with the old madam. The tea room instantly became lively. The old madam held Ye Jian’s hand. When she touched the calluses on Ye Jian’s hand, the old madam couldn’t help but tighten her grip.

The calluses on her granddaughter-in-law’s hand… were in the same spots as the calluses on Little Six’s hand.

She didn’t know which military unit Little Six served in. She didn’t know what hard work she did either. She only knew that it was dangerous to serve in the bordering town.

Her granddaughter-in-law had such thick calluses too. She must be having a hard time in the military school.

“Come to our house often when you’re free in the future. I’ll brew tonics for you to nourish your body. Today, we’ll serve soup that can nourish your energy. Drink a bowl of it tonight to nourish your body.

“Don’t be formal with me at home. We’re family. It’ll hurt our relationship if you’re too polite.

“Tell me all the things you want to eat. I’ll prepare everything for you. It’s said that good health is a prerequisite for work. If you take care of your body, you can be more loyal to the country.”
