“No need, how could I possibly accept that? Knowing what brand of skincare she uses is enough. I can buy two sets myself to use. My age is different from Auntie’s, so the skincare products we use won’t be the same anyway.”
“Yes, that’s right. You two can chat properly later. I don’t know much about these things.”
What Zhan Yue said was also true.
He did not understand it in the past, but from now on, he would have to learn about it properly.
He wanted to make sure his future wife stayed soft, tender, and well-maintained.
“Xiaoya, you’re here. Come quickly, come and sit next to Grandma.”
The old lady smiled as she stood up and waved to Zeng Xiaoya.
Zeng Xiaoya followed Zhan Yue to stand in front of everyone and greeted them politely.
She had already met Zhan Yue’s brother and sister-in-law at the hospital, and she had also eaten with Haitong and her husband last time, so she was more familiar with them.
She was not very familiar with Ning Yun Chu, having only met her once at the hospital.
The third master of the Zhan family and his wife subtly sized up Zeng Xiaoya. Both of them had gentle smiles on their faces, and when Zeng Xiaoya greeted them, they returned her smile.
“Miss Zeng, please sit down quickly.”
The third madam invited Zeng Xiaoya to sit. “Come and sit next to the old lady. The old lady has been talking about you all morning.”
Zeng Xiaoya carried Beibei over and sat down beside the old lady. Haitong, who was next to her, took Beibei from her arms.
She smiled at Zeng Xiaoya. “Grandma really did talk about you all morning. She kept complaining that Old Eighth was unreliable. She asked him to pick someone up, but he took forever and there was no sign of him.”
Zeng Xiaoya said apologetically, “I’m really sorry. There were a lot of people at the clinic, so I only came with Zhan Yue after I finished. I made Grandma Zhan wait for a long time.”
She smiled and added, “This is my fault, it has nothing to do with Zhan Yue. Zhan Yue even helped dispense medicine. Grandma Zhan, please don’t blame Zhan Yue. Next time when I have an appointment with Grandma Zhan, I will come earlier.”
“Grandma Zhan can just send me the location, and I can drive over myself.”
That way, Zhan Yue would not need to come and pick her up.
The old lady said, “So that’s how it was. Helping patients is more important, of course. It’s fine, Grandma can wait.”
The third madam agreed, “If you’re busy, just ask Zhan Yue for help. No need to be polite with him.”
This girl had a very fortunate-looking face, round and full, with a healthy rosy complexion. She looked very healthy and pure.
She heard the girl was a doctor, and her whole family were doctors. That was excellent. Her Old Eighth really knew how to choose.
The third madam had a very good first impression of Zeng Xiaoya.
She had only found out today that her mother-in-law had used an excuse to get Old Eighth to pick up Doctor Zeng and bring her over to play.
Once she learned that Doctor Zeng was her future daughter-in-law, how could the third madam sit still? She immediately dragged her husband and rushed over in a hurry.
Privately, she even said that Big Brother and Big Sister-in-law were unfair for not telling her.
Tang Jun Ye felt a bit innocent. The four of them had only just returned from Yang City, so she knew about it just a little earlier than the third couple.
“Exactly. If there’s anything you need help with, you can ask Old Eighth.” Tang Jun Ye agreed, exchanging a glance with her sister-in-law, both meaning that this girl was very nice and a perfect match for Zhan Yue.
Zeng Xiaoya said, “How could I possibly do that? Zhan Yue is usually very busy with work too.”
“He’s not busy at all. He just goes to the company for a quick walk around twice a day and that’s it, he can leave work. Occasionally he attends a meeting, that’s all. He’s not busy in the slightest. If he were really busy, he wouldn’t be able to manage the house renovation himself.”
The old lady held Zeng Xiaoya’s hand affectionately and said, “In the future, you and Zhan Yue will be neighbours. As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbours. If you ever run into any difficulties or need anything at all, you can ask Zhan Yue for help.”
“You have also helped Zhan Yue a lot. He didn’t understand anything about house renovation, and you were the one he troubled for advice.”
“Xiaoya, to be honest, none of the children in our family understand those things. You were willing to help Zhan Yue, letting him learn and gain some life experience. We are truly very grateful.”
