A god-tier fishing spot, anglers lined up to give me money.

Upon arriving home, Su Guanyin parked her car on the cement ground in front of the door. As soon as she turned off the car, she stood curiously at the door.

Seeing the black car parked in front of his house, he first frowned, then curiously moved over.

inside the car,

Chen Zilu, only then noticing the old lady approaching and peering at her in the rearview mirror, tightened her grip on Yang Qi's arm and said nervously:

"Yang Qi, is that old woman your grandma?"

Yang Qi looked in the direction she pointed.

Seeing Su Guanyin's face, which looked more than ten years younger, he craned his neck to look and nodded: "Yes, she is my grandmother."

"I'm nervous..."

"It's okay, I'll go down first."

Yang Qi patted the back of her hand, took a deep breath, opened the car door, got out, stood in front of Su Guanyin, and forced a smile:

"Grandma, I'm back."

Su Guanyin turned her gaze from the car window to Yang Qi's face.

Upon recognizing her grandson, the old woman's face immediately fell: "You brat, you actually know how to come back? Why don't you just go live as a savage in the mountains!"

"Grandma, what will you do if I become a savage?" Yang Qi scratched his head.

"And Xiaojin and the others, you don't need to worry about them."

Su Guanyin gave him a curt look, then noticed someone else in the passenger seat and softened her tone, "Xiao Qi, who's in the car?"

Before Yang Qi could speak, the passenger door had already been opened.

Chen Zilu took a deep breath, got out of the car, straightened her clothes, and gave Su Guanyin a smile she tried to make as natural as possible:

"Hello, Grandma."

Su Guanyin's eyes widened instantly, her mouth slightly agape, her gaze darting back and forth between Chen Zilu and Yang Qi, as if she couldn't believe her eyes:

"You, you are...?"

Looking at the old lady's expression, Chen Zilu glanced at Yang Qi and mustered her courage to say, "Grandma, my name is Chen Zilu, and I'm Yang Qi's...girlfriend."

Upon hearing this, Su Guanyin was completely stunned. Her mouth opened and closed, and it took her a long time to react.

"Huh? Say it again, I didn't hear you..."

Although Chen Zilu was nervous, she calmly said, "I said, I am Yang Qi's girlfriend."

The next second, Su Guanyin's expression completely changed.

"Yang Qi's girlfriend?" Su Guanyin was still somewhat skeptical, but confirmed, "It really is."

"Uh-huh."

"Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay..."

The old lady excitedly kept saying "good!" and grabbed Chen Zilu's wrist, exclaiming, "The iron tree has blossomed! The iron tree has finally blossomed!"

As she spoke, she pulled Chen Zilu into the house, saying, "Come on in, come on in and sit down, it's cool inside!"

At the same time, he shouted into the house, "Xiaojin, Qinghui, Huizhang, come out quickly, we have guests."

Yang Qi stood there, watching the old woman pull Chen Zilu into the house without looking back, not even sparing him a glance, and remained silent for a moment.

Looking down at her empty hands, then up at her grandmother's overly enthusiastic back, she couldn't help but cover her face and mutter to herself:

"Grandma...have you forgotten about me?"

On the second floor, Yang Huizhang was sitting in a chair looking at his phone when he heard Su Guanyin's shout. He almost dropped his phone and jumped up.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Xiaojin came out of the kitchen with a spoon: "Grandma, who's here?"

Yang Qinghui was reading on the sofa when she heard the noise and quickly went downstairs.

Then, seeing Chen Zilu behind Su Guanyin, she exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Zilu, what brings you here?"

"Do you know each other?" Su Guanyin asked.

"Hmm." She leaned closer and asked, "Sister Zilu, you and Brother are back? Where is he?"

"Your brother, outside," Su Guanyin said irritably.

"Come, sit here!"

Su Guanyin helped Chen Zilu sit down in a chair, brewed tea, then sat down next to her, leaning forward and looking intently at her. "Girl, your name is Chen Zilu, right?"

"Yes, Grandma."

How old are you?

"Twenty-two."

What's your zodiac sign?

"Born in the Year of the Sheep."

How many people are in your family?

"A family of three: me, my mom, and my brother."

"What kind of work do you do?"

"We're also helping Yang Qi with his live-streaming e-commerce account."

"Oh, oh, oh!"

Su Guanyin became more and more satisfied as she listened. "Nice height, well-built, and beautiful. Xiao Qi is truly blessed to have found a girlfriend like you!"

"..." Yang Qi, who was standing at the door and hadn't entered yet, leaned against the door frame, listening to the conversation inside. His lips twitched, and he muttered to himself, "The good fortune I accumulated? Well, it seems that's not wrong."

Yang Xiaojin was the first to react. Feeling sad that her brother hadn't come home last night, she quickly walked over and called out to Chen Zilu, "Hello, sister-in-law!"

Chen Zilu's face flushed instantly at his shout, her fingers unconsciously twisting the hem of her clothes: "It's...it hasn't come to that yet..."

"It was bound to happen sooner or later," Yang Huizhang agreed. "Hello, sister-in-law, you've come at the perfect time. We'll have to add a few more dishes today, right, Brother Xiaojin!"

"Yes, yes, Huizhang, come help."

"Okay."

"I'll join too," Yang Qinghui chimed in.

Su Guanyin turned back to Chen Zilu: "Daughter, do you eat spicy food at home? Are there any dietary restrictions? Don't be shy, make yourself at home!"

"If you've been wronged, tell Grandma." Saying this, she glared at Yang Qi, who was standing in the doorway, and scolded, "Standing there like a door god, come here and keep my daughter company."

"Daughter, you're already calling me your daughter after just one meeting? Could this preferential treatment be any more obvious?"

Yang Qi complained, walked over, and sat down on the other side of Chen Zilu.

Seeing Yang Qi sitting next to her, Chen Zilu felt a little less flustered.

"Where have you two gotten to?"

"I..." Chen Zilu lowered her head.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Yang Qi immediately stepped in to smooth things over, "Grandma, that's enough, don't ask. Zilu came back with me alone, so take it easy."

Su Guanyin realized she had been too hasty and apologized, "It's Grandma who's anxious, Zilu, don't take it to heart. I'll go to the kitchen to help."

She glared at Yang Qi and said, "Stay with her properly. If you dare to bully her, don't forget about me, your grandmother."

"I know, I'm not that stupid."

After Su Guanyin left, Chen Zilu looked up, reached out and pinched Yang Qi's cheek, "You're clearly a fool, but you insist you're not. Aren't you ashamed?"

"Hehehe, I'm stupid, I'm stupid. In front of you, I'm a complete fool."

"Pfft...you big idiot."

……

An hour later, the table was piled high with food.

Stir-fried cured pork with garlic sprouts, braised grass carp, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried water spinach, stewed pork ribs with corn...

Su Guanyin sat next to Chen Zilu, her chopsticks never stopping as she kept putting food into Chen's bowl, muttering, "Eat more, eat more..."

Chen Zilu's bowl was piled high with food, and she didn't know where to start eating with her chopsticks.

"Zilu,"

Su Guanyin placed a piece of pork rib in her bowl. "How did you and Xiao Qi meet?"

"My parents knew Uncle Yang and his family before. They had eaten together and met a few times." Chen Zilu blushed when asked the question and lowered her head to eat a mouthful of rice.

"Oh, so you've known each other for a long time!"

Su Guanyin smiled from ear to ear, "This child, you kept it from me for so long! From now on, just tell Grandma what you want to eat."

Turning to Yang Xiaojin, he said, "Xiaojin, starting tomorrow, you should stew more soup for Zilu to nourish her."

"Okay," Yang Xiaojin replied with a smile.

Yang Huizhang, gnawing on a rib, interjected, "Grandma, remember to call me when you're making soup. Sister-in-law, you eat up."

Chen Zilu blushed again at being called "sister-in-law," and said, "We're not that close yet. If you don't mind, just call me Sister Zilu..."

"Okay, sister-in-law." Yang Huizhang laughed, "Sister-in-law, I've been telling you that my second brother is really amazing. He opened a fishing pond despite the doubts of the whole family, and he succeeded."

"He's my idol, I'll follow my second brother from now on."

Upon hearing this, Yang Qi, who was drinking soup, choked on his soup.

Su Guanyin interjected:

"Xiao Qi isn't as exaggerated as he makes it out to be. He's been slow-witted since he was little, not good at talking or dealing with people. Zi Lu, don't dislike him. If he bullies you in the future, just tell Grandma, and I'll deal with him!"

Hearing this, Chen Zilu smiled and glanced at Yang Qi, inwardly agreeing with his assessment. She thought, "He's such a big idiot..."

Yang Qi put down his bowl and silently looked at the people in front of him.

His grandmother held Chen Zilu's hand and asked her about her well-being, while his brother and cousin kept calling her "sister-in-law."

His sister also started chatting with Chen Zilu.

Surrounded by them, Chen Zilu gradually relaxed from her initial tension and was even occasionally amused.

He himself became completely invisible, shaking his head helplessly.

Sigh, this differential treatment is so unfair, it's making me so upset...
