Chapter 1864: Chapter 1864: If you dare not let me go back, see how I’ll deal with you!
Xue Ganggang touched her nose, “Was my acting really that bad?”
Xue Shi rolled his eyes again, “I think you didn’t even try to act. Last time Grandma and the others were asking me why you were so happy every day. It was lucky that me and Xue Bai helped you bluff your way past it, otherwise Grandma and the rest would have definitely asked you by now. They all noticed, how could we not?”
“Cough cough,” Xue Ganggang quickly acted spoiled, “Bro, don’t be mad.”
“I’m not mad. I just don’t understand, why do you have to hide it? There must be a reason, so tell me, what’s the reason?” Xue Shi crossed his arms and looked at her.
Xue Ganggang, “There’s no special reason. Remember I told you before that he’s not from this town? His home is quite far away, and he was in a hurry to go back to deal with some issues. We agreed that once he’s settled everything, moves over, we would tell the family. Now that he’s already transferred his household registration here and bought a house in the county, you see, I told you guys immediately! I’m planning to bring him home tomorrow!”
Xue Bai was very happy, “He moved to the county?”
“Yeah,” Xue Ganggang immediately nodded.
However, Xue Shi was puzzled, “Why did he move to the county, did his family agree to him moving?”
Xue Ganggang, “His parents passed away a long time ago. He’s the eldest son, with two younger brothers. The brothers are doing business all over the place and hardly ever come home, so that house is pretty much an empty shell. Besides, his two brothers plan to do business near Peace Town later on, and now that he is together with me, he simply decided to move here and picked the county as his foothold.”
“Okay then, I won’t have to worry about you marrying far away and never seeing you,” Xue Shi finally looked happy too.
Xue Ganggang breathed a huge sigh of relief inside.
Unable to resist, Xue Shi asked, “Since you’re bringing him home, you two must be planning to get married, right?”
“He’s just settled in the county, his foundation there isn’t stable yet, and he doesn’t want to marry me in a hurry. Both he and I want to get engaged first. There definitely won’t be a wedding this year, the earliest would be next year,” said Xue Ganggang.
Xue Shi nodded, “Judging by his actions, he seems quite reliable. If he had just settled down and was in a hurry to marry you, I definitely wouldn’t approve of him.”
Then, “Bro, tomorrow when he comes to our house, you and Xue Bai will come home too, won’t you?” Xue Ganggang seized the opportunity.
“Isn’t that obvious? If you bring someone home, can Xue Bai and I not go back? If you dare not let me return, see how I deal with you! Uncle will definitely go back too. You don’t worry. Ningzhi and the others, I’ll tell them to go back as well. You don’t have to worry about these things, just bring him home,” he said.
“Bro, you’re always so good to me.”
“Stop flattery. By the way, how old is Bai Xing? He seems to be about the same age as uncle,” Xue Shi asked.
Xue Ganggang said, “He’s a year older than uncle.”
Xue Shi felt a bit complicated, “You guys don’t have a generation gap?”
“No, not at all,” Xue Ganggang felt it was absurd. As far as she could recall, there was indeed no generation gap.
“Well, that’s good,” Xue Shi was also reassured.
Xue Ningzhi and Xue Qiansheng, who were at the academy, heard about this and didn’t even wait for the next day. They rode back home in a carriage that very night, planning to skip class tomorrow.
Xue Sifu didn’t mind them, and even went back with them.
Xue Shi, who was always impatient, didn’t bother going home to wait. Instead, he stayed in town with Xue Bai, having already arranged with Xue Ganggang to meet when she passed by the main shop with Bai Xing, so they could go back together.
