Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 654

Xinyan, who is being thought of by the two little guys, is busy tidying up the cotton clothes she’s made for them.

These clothes were all designed by Xinyan herself, with Granny Zhang helping her to make them.

Granny Zhang is folding the clothes: "Sili and Siyan will surely love these clothes. I’m afraid once they wear them out, others will follow suit."

This afternoon, there are only two classes. Yesterday, the master said he and his wife are going to attend an old friend’s birthday party tonight, so there’s no need to go over. Xinyan hasn’t seen the two little guys for a long time. She packed the clothes and food she prepared for the two children and brought them to school. After class, she’d go directly to the institute to surprise the two little guys.

Xinyan packed everything into a handbag: "The two little guys will definitely show off for several days again."

Placing the bag on the table: "Then no need to prepare dinner for me tonight. I’ll have dinner with them there before coming back."

Granny Zhang nodded: "Don’t be too late; it’s not safe on the road."

Xinyan smiled and said: "I’ll call Jinxuan in a while to have him pick me up."

Granny Zhang, hearing this, smiled broadly: "That would be great, then I won’t have to worry."

Xinyan took her bag, picked up the handbag, and was ready to leave, just as Grandma Tong entered the courtyard, seeing her carrying a large handbag: "Xinyan, where are you going?"

Xinyan glanced at the handbag in her hand: "Some time ago, I made several cotton clothes and pants for my partner’s nephews, preparing to deliver them after school this afternoon."

Grandma Tong frowned slightly, disapprovingly, although she knew she shouldn’t interfere, still said: "You haven’t even married, and you’re already worrying about his nephews?"

Granny Zhang, naturally knowing that Old Mrs. Tong was saying it for Xinyan’s good, quickly explained: "Those two children’s mom is gone, and their dad has always been very busy with work, inconvenient to take care of them. They used to live with their uncle, oh, that’s Xinyan’s partner.

Their dad worked hard to transfer his job back to the capital, got settled, and took the two kids over. It was said that every once in a while, they’d go see the kids. Xinyan, busy with her studies, has just found some time.

The weather has gotten cold, just convenient to deliver the cotton clothes and pants we made."

Old Mrs. Tong, hearing the explanation, felt a bit embarrassed: "Oh, then it’s right to visit."

Xinyan smiled and greeted, and then left.

Seeing Xinyan gone, Old Mrs. Tong then said: "Don’t be upset about what I said earlier, old sister."

Granny Zhang smiled and invited her inside: "You treat Yanyan like your own, that’s why you said it, why would I be upset?"

The two chatted for a while, then Old Mrs. Tong said: "You don’t know, the Chen family had another episode yesterday."

Granny Zhang, having gone out yesterday afternoon, didn’t know: "What was it about this time?"

Old Mrs. Tong sighed: "It’s still those sisters-in-law not getting along, whenever Old Mrs. Chen gives any good food to Manjuan’s two young ladies, those two daughters-in-law have sour expressions.

This morning, I ran into Manjuan’s child. She asked me to see if there’s any house for rent around here."

Granny Zhang, hearing this: "She wants to move out?"

Old Mrs. Tong tucked her hair behind her ear: "Manjuan’s child doesn’t want her mom stuck in the middle, moving out might calm the house down.

She wants to find a place not too far from us, so her mom can still come over to help if needed."

Granny Zhang suddenly remembered, a few days ago Xinyan mentioned that in the courtyard Jinxuan bought for her, a household said they wouldn’t rent anymore. She clapped her thigh: "I happen to know a suitable house, but I need to confirm first."

Old Mrs. Tong didn’t expect her casual mention to resolve the issue: "That would be wonderful, it’ll save me trouble."

After chatting awhile, Old Mrs. Tong left. Granny Zhang tidied up and went out too.

She’s been to Xinyan’s place a few times, and knows the household Xinyan mentioned. She thought, if that young couple really didn’t want to rent, with New Year coming, it might not be easy to rent out; if anyone wants to rent, it’s likely after the New Year.

If they’re sure not to rent, it would be better to rent it to the second young lady of the Chen family, so the house wouldn’t stay empty, and Manjuan is a good person, helping where possible.

Locked the door and headed to the courtyard.

Luckily, this courtyard isn’t far from here, just what Chen Manjuan wants. If it works out, it benefits everyone.

When Granny Zhang arrived, the young couple was packing, seeing Granny Zhang: "Why are you here, elder?"

Granny Zhang walked in with a smile: "Are you packing?"
