Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 500

Han Chunxue was truly grateful to Granny Zhang: "Aunt Zhang, I’ve heard from my second brother about Xinyan’s situation. I’m really grateful to you."

Granny Zhang looked at Han Chunxue, whose eyes were slightly red, and was a bit puzzled: "Xinyan is a good child. I didn’t do much; she’s been the one taking care of me."

Han Chunxue was about to say more when she heard her husband Sun Baowei’s voice: "Chunxue, the dishes are almost all served, let’s have Aunt Zhang sit down and eat first."

Han Chunxue slapped her forehead: "Look at me, I’m really forgetful."

The Han Family kept the chief seat for Granny Zhang. Although she wasn’t worldly, she understood these customs: "I’ll just sit next to Yanyan."

But the Han Family wouldn’t agree to that no matter what.

Han Jingchen said, "Aunt, today’s place belongs to you and no one else."

With things said this far, it would be socially unaware to refuse further.

After everyone settled down, Han Jingchen raised a glass and said, "Today we’re gathered together to welcome Granny Zhang. I’ve previously shared Xinyan’s situation with everyone.

If it weren’t for Granny Zhang’s help, Xinyan wouldn’t have been able to attend high school, and she certainly wouldn’t have had the chance to get into such a top-tier university today. We’ll remember Granny Zhang’s kindness for a lifetime."

He didn’t dare think about what his daughter would have faced if she had dropped out of school and returned home without Granny Zhang’s aid.

Even though the Yu Family ultimately couldn’t let Xinyan finish her studies, without that one and a half years of high school learning, it wouldn’t have been so easy for her to get into college.

Taking a deep breath: "Come, everyone, raise your glasses. Let’s thank Aunt Zhang for everything she’s done for Xinyan. I won’t say more; everything is in this toast."

Everyone raised their glasses one after another: "Cheers."

The room occasionally filled with laughter, a joyous and harmonious atmosphere.

Su Aihong was seated next to Granny Zhang, and after putting down her glass, she kept using public chopsticks to serve Granny Zhang dishes: "Aunt, Sister Chen’s cooking is really excellent. Try this fish; the flavor is superb."

Granny Zhang was initially a bit embarrassed, but the two hit it off splendidly and chatted happily. She was no longer reserved: "This dish is really delicious."

Sister Chen, who had just brought the soup, happened to hear this, her face filled with smiles.

The meal was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

No need to mention Granny Zhang; even Wu Shengfang and Chu Zhenhua were completely full. The dishes were just too good, even better than what they’d tasted at state-owned restaurants.

After the meal, everyone sat together to chat once more.

At this time, Sun Zhenling also joined in, squeezing into the conversation between Xinyan and the two prospective sisters-in-law.

Why was Chu Zhenhua called a prospective sister-in-law now? Because earlier at the dining table, the eldest aunt mentioned meeting the parents.

Chu Zhenhua wasn’t shy and accepted directly.

Earlier, Chu Zhenhua had said her second uncle and second aunt would come over by then, and she would call her father in advance. No one would oppose this; not to mention the Han Family was extraordinary, even if they were ordinary people, her stepmother wouldn’t interfere.

Because she had long wanted to marry her off, her grandfather had said that half of the monthly salary wasn’t just saved until she turned eighteen but until she got married.

Currently, her father earns forty-eight yuan a month, and every year she doesn’t marry, she has to take half of that. Over the years, her stepmother has probably had enough of it.

Fortunately, her stepmother wasn’t lucky with children; after marrying in, she only had one daughter. If she had given birth to a son, it would have been a mess long ago. How could it have waited until now?

Moreover, even though her grandfather was no longer around, her second uncle had a strong stance and a much higher position than her father, so her stepmother had to swallow her grievances and not dare cause trouble or stop contributing to the savings. However, once she turned eighteen, she started pushing her to find someone and get married.

While they were chatting, sister-in-law Wu Shengfang spaced out a few times, caught right by Xinyan.

But, she could probably guess what her sister-in-law was thinking?

Chu Zhenhua’s savings book had money deposited into it since she was a child. Even if her father’s salary wasn’t as high before, by the year’s end, it was still a considerable amount. Moreover, it had been saved for so many years, which was all Chu Zhenhua’s dowry, so it wasn’t false to say she was envious.
