Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

The third day of the holiday.

Ji Hancheng, Tang Junyao, Ji Xinyu, and Ji Jiale were waiting for the Lan family at the cemetery early in the morning.

They arrived early and pulled up all the weeds around the cemetery. The two children were also quite hardworking and helped out. Neither the son nor the daughter was idle.

Ji Jiale also wiped the tombstones of Grandpa Tang, Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Wu clean, wiping them again and again, until he reached out to touch them and there was no dust on his fingertips before he stopped.

"Lele, Xiaoyu, take a rest." Tang Junyao arranged the flowers and placed two prayer cushions in front of the tombstone.

A black tombstone appeared next to Grandpa Tang's tombstone. After Tang Xin died, it was she and Ji Hancheng who went to collect his ashes. After all, he was Grandpa's son, so Tang Junyao still buried Tang Xin a meter away from Grandpa.

Tang Junyan took Chen Lan's ashes and buried them in a place unknown to them. Every year, Tang Junyan would take his wife and daughter to sweep the grave, and they would also make a point of not coming to visit his grandfather's grave at the same time.

Tang Junyao understood her brother's actions; he didn't know what to say to his uncle, so he simply avoided visiting the graves at that time.

The disputes between elders are none of the children's business. "Come and pay your respects to Grandpa."

The two children responded, "Oh."

Neither child knelt down; they simply clasped their hands together in a bow and then turned back to their original positions.

A moment later, the sound of footsteps could be heard. Looking in the direction of the sound, it was indeed the Lan family. Tang Junyao stood up and called out to the people who came, "Uncle, Aunt, Brother, Sister-in-law, Xiao Yu has grown so much! It's only been a short time since we last met."

Tang Junyao smiled and patted Lan Zhiyu's shoulder, who was even taller than her.

The entire Lan family was dressed casually, looking exactly like they were there to sweep the tombs. With the development of the internet age, every year when people sweep the tombs, you can see many young people either listening to music with headphones, watching short videos, or playing games, and you can also see many people dressed up in a flamboyant way.

They don't seem to be here to sweep the tombs; they seem to be here to make their presence known at the cemetery, just going through the motions.

At this moment, Yan Na and Lan Yunchen were wearing the same style of hoodie and pants, as was Lan Zhiyu. Lan Zhiyu was the same height as Lan Yunchen, and her facial features resembled Yan Na's. The best features of the couple were all gathered in their child.

Lan Zhiyu's personality is similar to Lan Yunchen's; she doesn't talk much, has stable emotions, and usually prefers casual attire.

The children were all very polite, greeting their elders one by one. Then the three children huddled together to chat, with Ji Xinyu doing most of the talking and the other two listening.

Lan Chumu apologized, "We calculated the time carefully, but we still got stuck in traffic. It's really not something that can be predicted. We'll have to go earlier next year."

Ji Hancheng: We just arrived a little while ago.

Shen Muyun glanced around and knew that her son-in-law was lying. She guessed that he had arrived at least an hour early, and said softly, "We're just here to pay our respects. We haven't been able to help at all."

Tang Junyao: "Grandpa and godmothers are overjoyed to know that you came all this way to see them."

Yan Na squatted down to help, took the things from Yao Yao's hands and helped burn paper money together, leaning closer and whispering, "Lele is just a carbon copy of Ji Hancheng."

"Xiao Yu is just like my brother, handsome, and as tall as my brother."

Yan Na smiled. She couldn't find a single fault with her son; he had never caused her any worry since he was a child.

"Sister-in-law, you should have had another child back then."

"Your brother said one is enough. Don't let his gentle appearance fool you; he can be quite domineering in some ways, like when it comes to having children. But I also think one is fine, and I don't want your brother to worry too much."

Lan Yunchen squatted down, tapped his younger sister on the head, and said gently, "Are you trying to trick your sister-in-law into having a second child? I'm too old for that!"

Tang Junyao laughed, "No, I know what you're thinking. I was just joking with your sister-in-law."

The Lan couple watched with smiles as their son and sister played around. As long as the siblings have a good relationship, they can play around no matter how old they are.

Ji Jiale and Ji Xinyu knelt in front of the tombstone for more than ten minutes and bowed. After Lan Zhi met his older brother and sister and got up, he also knelt down and bowed.

When the Lan family members left, none of them offered incense to Tang Xin. They didn't even glance at him. Some people can forgive certain things, but others can't. As for the harm Tang Xin caused to his sister, framing her to death, Lan Chumu could not forgive him even in his coffin.

The child called Tang Xin "Grandpa." Tang Junyao and Ji Hancheng only lit an incense stick and didn't say anything, nor did they call him "Dad." Tang Junyao couldn't remember how she called Tang Xin "Dad" anymore; it was too far in the past.

An hour later, the group drove away to the Chiang family cemetery.

In the afternoon, the Lan family went to the Yan family's cemetery and were very busy without stopping for a moment.

Around 3 PM, at Beijing Capital International Airport.

The group saw off the Lan family, the Ji family, the Han family, and the Yan family.

A group of children said goodbye to Lan Zhiyu and invited her, Ji Xinyu, "Xiao Yu, come here during summer vacation."

Lan Zhiyu: "Okay." He had already mentioned to his father that he would come to the capital for a while during the summer vacation, and his parents had agreed.

Lan Yunchen smiled as he looked at the group of loving children. "It's mainly because Xiaoyu has to go to school tomorrow. Otherwise, he could stay here. There will be plenty of opportunities. You can also come to Lancheng to play during the summer vacation."

After saying that, he patted his son on the shoulder.

Lan Yunxi hugged Shen Muyun for a while, then hugged Lan Chumu for a while, very reluctant to part, "Goodbye, Daddy and Mommy."

The Lan couple were also reluctant to part with their daughter, so they tidied her hair and said, "Call your parents if you need anything."

Han's mother invited the Lan couple, "You two can come over during the summer vacation too. Old Han has been looking forward to playing chess with you for a long time."

Upon hearing this, the strict father snatched it away, saying, "This won't do. I talked to Chu Mu about playing chess this afternoon. You should go to the back. There has to be a first-come, first-served order. You should line up at the back."

The strict father said this to Han's father.

Everyone watched with amusement as the two people, whose combined age was over a hundred, bickered.

Mr. Han smiled broadly, showing great generosity. "Look how stingy you are. I'm a law-abiding citizen and I never cut in line, right, Nuonuo, Xiaochen?"

Han Yichen didn't answer, but shrugged, clearly disagreeing. Han Yinuo sweetly took her grandmother's arm and replied, "Yes, that's right."

Ji Hang: "I apologize for not taking good care of you this time, so please come to the Ji residence next time."

Yuan Shu smiled at Shen Muyun, which could be considered an invitation.

Lan Chumu instantly became a sought-after chess partner. "I'll definitely arrange it next time. Let's go, don't just stand there."

Han Yue put his arm around Lan Yunxi and said goodbye, "Mom and Dad, Big Brother, I will take good care of Xiaoxi."

Upon hearing this, the Lan family couple nodded, and Lan Yunxi smiled. Yan Na said, "Mom and Dad, you should go back now. The two children are still at home taking classes."

Feng Xiaoni didn't come. She had a three-day holiday, but she and Feifei stayed at their posts and continued to work hard, with endless things to do every day.

After saying goodbye for a few more minutes, the Lan family boarded the plane, followed by bodyguards. The plane took off and soared into the sky. The group only left the airport when the plane was out of sight.

In the parking lot, several cars were parked side by side. Ji Hang drove Yuan Shu home, waved to the others, and said, "We're leaving now."

Several elders nodded.

Yan's father raised an eyebrow at Han's father, "I'm leaving. There are still two heirs in the family who are working hard. I have to keep an eye on things for my little girl."

Mr. Han wasn't very confident at this moment, mainly because his grandson's grades were indeed not very good. "Alright, let's go then. Our Nuonuo doesn't need any tutoring at all. It saves money and he's still first in the grade."

If Han Yichen wasn't there, would the strict father ask if Xiaochen was also first in his grade? The child was somewhat respectful to his strict father, so he just smiled, ignored the boastful boy, got into the driver's seat, and drove away from the airport with his mother.

Han's mother glanced at the children, "Nuonuo, Xiaochen, are you going back with your grandparents or going to play with your older brothers and sisters?"

Han Yinuo glanced at Han Yue, who nodded, and then asked his son, "Have you finished your homework?"

Han Yichen replied, "It's finished."

Lan Yunxi was a little skeptical of her son. Every time he said he had finished writing, the next day the teacher would give him an example in the group chat of him having missed something in his homework. She asked again, "Are you sure you checked it?"

The meaning behind these words was quite clear. Lan Yunxi even gave her son a look, implying that if he lied, his father would definitely be angry.

After much deliberation, Han Yichen said again, "It's really finished."

Seeing her grandson say this, Han's mother knew that the child was planning to go out and play. "We're leaving now."

Tang Junyao: "Goodbye, Uncle and Aunt."

Ji Xinyu: "Goodbye, Grandpa Han and Grandma Han."

The Han couple replied in unison, "Goodbye."

There were two cars left. Ji Hancheng glanced at his son, then at the cars, and asked, "Should I take you to your destination, or can you drive the cars?"

Ji Jiale, hands in his pockets, his trench coat billowing in the breeze, said nonchalantly, "You can drive off. I'll take a taxi with Xiaoyu and the others."

Han Yue chuckled, "Your dad's car is too old-fashioned. You can drive my car; just have your dad bring it back to me tomorrow."

Ji Hancheng glanced at Han Yue, extremely unwilling, "I'm not going to lend it out; you can come and get it yourself."

Han Yue shrugged, not bothering to argue with him. "Fine, I'll let Xiao Fei drive."

He tossed the car keys to Ji Jiale. He was driving a cool SUV, the one Xiao Xi liked, while Ji Hancheng was driving his recently acquired Bentley.

Ji Jiale caught the keys in mid-air, opened the driver's side door without ceremony, and got in. Ji Xinyu got into the passenger seat, while Han Yinuo and Han Yichen sat in the back.

Starting the car and driving away, Ji Jiale rolled down the window and said casually, "Mom, we won't be coming home for dinner."

Han Yue smiled, his tongue sticking out from the corner of his lips. "Same here as you. Let's go, Driver Ji." With that, he took Lan Yunxi's hand and opened the Bentley's door, getting in on his own.

Ji Hancheng laughed and scolded, "You brat, you're ignoring me? Don't you need to tell me?"

Tang Junyao laughed along, "At most, we'll let Lele call you 'Dad' a few more times when he comes back at night. Mom and I usually arrange the kids' dinners, so what's the big deal? Bye."

A man was pushed into the car. Once inside, Ji Hancheng glanced at the rearview mirror and asked his friend, who was lounging in the back playing with his wife's fingers, with a disdainful look, "The company?"

"Why would I need to ride in your car to get home?"

Both Lan Yunxi and Tang Junyao were already used to their way of getting along, and neither of them interrupted, just listening attentively.

Ji Hancheng: "It's free, so be nice. What kind of father are you? Keep flattering my Xu Mingkai. His wife is the homeroom teacher of Class 1, Grade 11."

Lan Yunxi and Han Yue showed no surprise, clearly having known all along. Han Yue scoffed, "Your information is outdated. I knew from the moment my son entered this class."

Upon hearing this, Ji Hancheng raised an eyebrow, not surprised at all. "So calm, are you really planning to let them roam free?"

When asked how he planned to raise Han Yue, he didn't answer, but simply offered his opinion: "Xu Mingkai's wife is too gentle, not fierce enough." She can't control his son.

Tang Junyao agreed with this. She had met Xu Mingkai's wife several times, and she always spoke softly and was incredibly gentle, so Xiao Chen really couldn't be afraid of her.

Lan Yunxi replied, "Brother-in-law, Yue Ge and I are already working on a rescue plan."

Tang Junyao: "........." Xiao Chen's good days are probably coming to an end.

Ji Hancheng just smiled and didn't ask how to save them.

Lan Yunxi was also quite worried about her son's grades. With Su Can's grades, he probably wouldn't be able to get into university this year. Su Yu and Guo Guo were already planning to have Su Can repeat a year.

She and Yue-ge didn't want Xiao-chen to follow Su-can's path, so they planned to save him in advance.
