Chapter 252 - 245: The Two Elders of the Qin Family



Grandpa and Grandma Qin were left behind when their eldest son and his family went out to do their own thing and the house was usually left empty. So, the old couple stayed home to watch the house instead of living with their family.

They would only visit occasionally, bringing some food. And whenever the elderly fell ill or felt unwell, their mum would come to take care of them, running between two houses.

Qin Yu was relieved that the old couple were in good health and rarely fell ill, otherwise their mum would really have a hard time.

“Alright, let’s go.” said Grandpa Qin as he locked the door and turned to his wife and Qin Yu.

“Grandma and Grandpa, please take your time and walk slowly.” Qin Yu seemed uneasy and warned them.

“Don’t worry about us, our legs are still sturdy, we can walk steadily.” Grandpa Qin replied with a chuckle.

“It’s just that I’m a bit worried.” Qin Yu admitted, though he knew he was being overcautious.

“There’s nothing to worry about, we’ve been using this road for decades.

We even recognize every rock on it.

So, stop worrying and get going.” Grandma Qin said heartily.

“Alright, then you guys take your time and don’t rush.” Qin Yu pondered and admitted they made a good point.

So, he followed them leisurely.

“How come this child acts like an old man at his young age?” Grandma Qin teased after seeing Qin Yu l s worried expression.

“Grandma, I’m just caring for you and here you are making fun of me.” Qin Yu looked at the kindly old woman.

“Who asked you to give me the chance to tease you?” Grandma Qin replied cheerfully.

“Grandpa, look at Grandma.” Qin Yu pleaded with his grandpa for help.

“Don’t call me, there’s nothing I can do.” Grandpa Qin chuckled, waving Qin Yu off while watching his wife’s merry behavior.

Qin Yu marvelled internally at the elderly couple’s childlike behavior.

He felt lucky to have been born into such a loving and understanding family.

Even though life at home was a bit tough, living in this sort of environment was his good fortune.

When they got home, Nangong Shulan was in the process of steaming rice with mugwort juice.

In this day and age, their home had no milling machine, so they would steam the rice until it was cooked and then put it into a stone mortar to make it mushy before wrapping it around the filling.

Another way to make green balls, is to grind the glutinous rice into powder and mix it with mugwort juice to make a dough, divide it into pieces, wrap the filling, and then steam it to eat.

Nangong Shulan saw Qin Yu bringing his grandparents home and hurriedly stood up to greet them.

“Dad, Mom, you’re here. Come in and have a seat. It’s smoky in here.” Nangong Shulan suggested her in-laws move to a different room.

The living room was brighter and more spacious; obviously sitting there was better than staying in the kitchen.

“Old man, you go first, I’ll stay here and help Shulan.” Grandma Qin was also a good cook.

She looked at all this, and thought about what Qin Yu had told her, about Qin Xue’s pregnancy.

All these foods were what Qin Xue enjoyed eating. They must be preparing it for her.

“No need, Mom please sit in the living room, I will finish up here soon.” Nangong Shulan couldn’t dare to let her mother-in-law help.

“What’s the harm, let me help you, it will be much quicker.” Grandma Qin thought that if she chipped in, they could finish the task much faster.

“Alright then, thank you, mum.” Nangong Shulan, seeing that she couldn’t refuse, stopped trying.

Indeed, an extra pair of hands made the work go faster. Once the glutinous rice was cooked, they asked Qin Yu and Mr. Qin to take it to the washed stone mortar to be ground.

While they, the mother and daughter-in-law, were responsible for cooking the meals.

The rice had already been steamed, so now they just needed to cook the dishes.

The fish soup was simmering deliciously, its aroma wafting around the courtyard, making everyone’s mouth water..
