Chapter 414 Uncertain Return Date
Chapter 414 Uncertain Return Date
Mrs. Zhang was delighted and said, "So he might not come back?" If that was the case, her son Yuan would surely forget about that man after a while.
Zhang Siyuan's reaction was slower than that of ordinary people. Before he could fully appreciate and understand the meaning of Ling Chuan's words, he was misled by his grandmother's words. His eyes suddenly became wet and he looked like he was about to cry out of grievance.
"Is Yingying's wife going to abandon Siyuan and not come back? Did Siyuan do something wrong and make Yingying's wife unhappy?"
The more Zhang Siyuan thought about it, the sadder he became, and tears came readily.
Xia Mo and Ling Chuan: "..."
This is too out of context.
The two children were equally shocked that this man actually cried.
Tiedan pulled at his skirt and raised her head and said, "Why are you crying? Shame on you. Uncle Ling didn't say that Brother Yingying wouldn't come back. It's just temporary. He will come back in the future. Besides, Brother Yingying said that he would do business in the city in the future, so he will definitely come back."
"Is that so?" The joy on Mrs. Zhang's face cooled and faded. Alas, her happiness was in vain.
Zhang Siyuan, with tears in his eyes, took a long time to speak, "So Yingying's wife will come back, right?"
Xia Mo coughed lightly, glanced at Madam Zhang again, and then said, "Yes, but I don't know when I will be back."
Zhang Siyuan burst into laughter and wiped his eyes with the backs of his hands like a child.
"Wife Yingying is not not coming back. She is not abandoning Siyuan. Siyuan will be good and wait for Wife Yingying to come back."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhang felt mixed emotions.
"Since you know that Master Ying will be back, Yuan'er should just wait for him at home, okay?"
Zhang Siyuan frowned, as if thinking, and shook his head after a while, "No, Siyuan has to stay at Yingying's house. When he comes back, Siyuan can see Yingying right away, and Yingying can see Siyuan too."
Home? Do you mean his shop?
Xia Mo thought about it and looked at Zhang Siyuan who had coaxed her.
He was a stall owner in his previous life and a store owner in this life. This kind of stupid and foolish behavior really makes people hard to be cruel.
I heard from Brother Chuan that in her previous life, Yingying became a killer after she parted ways with him. Her personality was different from this life, but her attitude towards Zhang Siyuan softened in the end. If it wasn't for her going to save him, and if they were given some more time, perhaps the two of them could really have gotten together.
Seeing that he looked worthless, Mrs. Zhang had a headache. Although she wanted to persuade him a few more times, she gave up when she thought of the outsiders who were there. She thought she would talk to him again when she got back, so she changed her words and tried to persuade him to go home: "Yuan'er, I've asked you questions and heard the news. Why don't you go home with grandma first?"
"Going home? Grandma, Siyuan doesn't want to go back yet." Zhang Siyuan started to act like a spoiled child, his eyes rolling around and lowering his gaze to Tiedan and Xiao Anyu.
"Siyuan wants to play with them, grandma, play for a while longer." Zhang Siyuan grabbed Mrs. Zhang's arm and shook it. His movements were skillful, and it seemed that he had acted like a spoiled child many times in the past.
Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips, feeling that he had other intentions, but she couldn't figure out what he wanted to do. However, she had made it clear that she wanted to leave, so it would be a bit awkward to stay any longer.
Xia Mo had been watching them, so he naturally didn't miss the embarrassment that flashed across her eyes. He said at the right time, "It's rare that Mr. Zhang likes you. If Madam Zhang is not in a hurry, please stay a little longer at my humble abode. It's still early."
After that, he turned to Zhang Siyuan and said, "And Mr. Zhang, you don't have to stay at my shop all day when you go back. When Yingying comes back, I'll send someone to your house to inform you. How about that? If you wait like this, your grandparents will be worried about you."
"But……"
Zhang Siyuan wanted to say something, but was drowned out by Mrs. Zhang's voice.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Liu is right. Yuan'er, you see, Master Ying doesn't know when he will come back. You are just squatting there. It's cold and the wind is biting. What if your face gets scratched? And your ears and hands will look ugly if they get frozen."
Xia Mo and Ling Chuan thought the first part was nothing, but the second part... why did it feel a bit ridiculous? Could it be that Zhang Siyuan, a big fool, still cared about his appearance?
Zhang Siyuan's brows moved slightly.
The face is painted, which means it becomes ugly. Yingying's wife definitely doesn't like Siyuan who has become ugly. He doesn't want Yingying's wife to dislike him...
"Then Siyuan won't go there to wait for Yingying's wife. Liu Ze, you must remember to tell Siyuan when Yingying's wife comes back, otherwise Siyuan will be very angry and won't be with you anymore."
Madam Zhang: “…”
I really want to tell her that silly grandson that he has never been nice to you.
"Yes, of course." Xia Mo nodded, and looked at Madam Zhang with smiling eyes, "Madam Zhang, we have been standing and talking for so long, go sit down for a while."
"Okay, okay." Mrs. Zhang was very happy to see that her grandson, who had not been persuaded even by ten oxen, finally listened to advice. So she was very grateful to the person who helped her solve the problem and naturally would not refuse him.
Seeing that the adults finally stopped talking, Tiedan, who had been about to say something, asked Zhang Siyuan: "What do you want to play with us?"
Seeing that his uncles did not deny that he called Yingying brother their wife, Xiao Anyu took the initiative to include him in their group and no longer avoided him as before.
"I don't know... By the way! When you met Yingying's wife last time, did she mention Siyuan?" Zhang Siyuan looked at the two children with great anticipation.
Mrs. Zhang, who had just turned halfway, felt upset. This child, ah...
Mrs. Zhang didn't want to embarrass herself anymore, so she walked inside. Xia Mo told the child to be careful, and went in with Ling Chuan.
Guests are welcome, even if the tea is served late, it must be served eventually.
As soon as the three of them left, Zhang Siyuan angrily accused, "You haven't answered Siyuan yet."
Tiedan said: "No, Brother Yingying didn't mention you, but he was playing on the seesaw with Uncle Ling and the others that day. It's the one that I just played with my brother Xiao Anyu." After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed.
Zhang Siyuan, who had just turned his mouth down, looked over. Two seconds later, a frightening light flashed in his eyes. "Yingying's wife did it! Siyuan wants to play too!"
Then he walked past quickly.
"You're so big and heavy, how are you going to sit?" Tiedan said as he pulled Xiao Anyu to follow him.
Zhang Siyuan didn't care about this. His mind and eyes were filled with the seesaw made by Yingying's wife. He couldn't hear anything else. The two servants followed him, wondering whether one of them should get on it.
But Tiedan and Xiao Anyu didn't think so. In the end, Zhang Siyuan sat on one side, and Xiao Anyu and Tiedan sat on the other side.
But Zhang Siyuan is an adult, and the two children cannot support his weight alone, so he often lifts the two children up, and then Tiedan keeps directing him.
They were playing outside while Xia Mo and Ling Chuan were chatting with Mrs. Zhang inside.
For example, Mrs. Zhang was surprised that the shop turned out to be theirs, and she also heard Tiedan say that the sugar factory was about to open.
This was no secret. The two of them spoke the truth and talked about this and that. Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but ask them indirectly and tentatively about Yingying's return date.
Xia Mo still said the same thing, it's not certain. As for matchmaking, he didn't even mention it. If the two of them are destined to be together, they will get together.
Besides, if he said that, Mrs. Zhang would definitely be unhappy, so why bother?
