Chapter 907: 223: Retribution is here!_5
Dr. Jiang, Zheng Lingling, and Sun Wu were executed that day. Old Mrs. Zheng bought lots of joss paper, took it to the crossroad, and burned it, "Sister, brother-in-law, Lingling, I’ve wronged your family of three. It was my lack of discernment, fostering a tiger to invite trouble!"
"Today is the day that ungrateful family was shot. Sister, brother-in-law, Lingling, can you see this?"
Strangely enough, though it had been clear skies, rain began to fall in the afternoon.
The rain continued for two days.
By the second day, the weather cleared up.
With such a major incident in the Zheng Family, Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui feared that staying in the old Zheng house might be too emotionally painful for the two elderly, as every corner reminded them of Zheng Lingling, Sun Wu, and Zheng Xianjing.
Thus, they suggested that the elders move to Jinghua Village with them.
The roads to Jinghual Village had been fixed, making transportation convenient, and the village had fresh air. Plus, the Ni Family’s house was well renovated and more comfortable to live in.
Old Mr. Zheng and Old Mrs. Zheng were very willing.
That very day, they dismissed all the servants of the Zheng Family and moved to Jinghua Village.
Ni Cuihua and Shangguan Dehui had moved from Jinghua Village to the Zheng house in winter, and now, they were moving back in the summertime.
Learning that Ni Yang and the others had moved back, the villagers of Jinghua Village were very happy. Worried they might have nothing to eat upon just returning, each household brought over a lot of food.
Old Mrs. Zheng said with a smile, "The people here are really warm-hearted!"
Old Mr. Zheng nodded, "Indeed!"
Seeing that Old Mr. Zheng and Old Mrs. Zheng had moved over, Ni Yang said, "Why don’t we bring grandma over too?"
Ni Yang was referring to Old Mrs. Shangguan.
The Shangguan Family only had Old Mrs. Shangguan by herself, with Shangguan Xu and Shangguan Xi living outside. They usually only came back on weekends, and sometimes they didn’t return for weeks.
Although Shangguan Dehui, Ni Cuihua, and Ni Yang visited her every week, rain or shine, the old lady was inevitably lonely.
You get lonely when you’re old.
Isn’t it just about having some liveliness?
Since the Ni family had plenty of rooms with their house, even ten or eight more people could fit.
Hearing this, Ni Cuihua immediately nodded, "Yangyang really thinks of everything. I’ve been so busy I didn’t even consider it. Your dad and I will go and bring grandma over now."
Old Mrs. Zheng and Old Mr. Zheng also nodded in agreement, "That’s right, that’s right! Tingting, don’t busy yourself—hurry and go with Dehui to bring your in-laws over."
Ni Yang then said, "I can drive to pick her up; you both stay home and get things ready."
Ni Cuihua exclaimed in surprise, "Yangyang, when did you learn to drive?" She didn’t even know!
Ni Yang smiled and said, "Mo Qishen taught me." She had to bring up Mo Qishen to avoid her mother’s suspicion.
"Oh." Ni Cuihua didn’t suspect anything and continued, "Then drive slowly and be careful on the road."
"I will, don’t worry."
Old Mr. Zheng called out to Ni Yang, "Yangyang, wait a moment."
"What is it, Grandpa?" Ni Yang turned back to look at Old Mr. Zheng.
Old Mr. Zheng continued, "Yangyang, your grandma will be here soon. To avoid calling someone wrong in the future, you should call us Grandpa and Grandma from now on."
Old Mrs. Zheng nodded, "I think what Grandpa," no, "what your grandpa said makes sense.
Although the custom in Beijing is that children born to daughters with no sons in the house should call their grandparents ’Grandpa and Grandma,’ Old Mr. Zheng and Old Mrs. Zheng didn’t care about these things.
Grandpa and Grandma, Grandpa and Grandma, as long as there is kinship, it’s all the same!
"Okay, Grandpa and Grandma," Ni Yang quickly changed her way of addressing them.
Ni Yang didn’t buy a sedan.
This car belonged to the Zheng family.
Since both elders had moved in, it was inconvenient not to have a car.
Just as Ni Yang opened the car door, Goudan came running over from afar, "Sister Ni Yang! You’re back! Everyone just said you were back, and I didn’t believe it!"
"Goudan!" Ni Yang reached out and touched Goudan’s little head.
"Sister Ni Yang, is this your car?" Goudan asked.
Ni Yang shook her head, "No, it belongs to my Grandpa and Grandma."
Goudan laughed and said, "If it’s your Grandpa and Grandma’s, isn’t that just the same as yours! After all, you’re all family! Sister Ni Yang, you’re really silly!"
Ni Yang said, "Goudan, it’s not the same. Only things earned by one’s own effort can truly be considered one’s own. This car wasn’t bought by Sister Ni Yang herself, so it doesn’t belong to Sister Ni Yang."
