Chapter 394: Chu Zhe Is Back
He realized that he might have gotten into trouble.
The number of guests in front of the house only decreased after ten o’clock at night. Other than the blood relations of Chu Ning’s grandfather, the rest had left, leaving behind a floor covered with melon skin and fruit scraps to clean.
"Xiao Ning, go inside and rest for a while. I’ll clean up. You’ve been traveling all day; you must be tired," Mrs. Chu said with a haggard look.
"Mom, you’re the one who needs a good rest. You haven’t slept since yesterday afternoon. You and Dad should go and sleep for a while," Chu Ning said with her heart aching, looking at her mother’s swollen eyes.
"Mom, you should go rest. Xiao Zhang and I are also around," Chu Jing said softly after walking to Mrs. Chu’s side.
As for Chu Huan, he had long found a place to sleep.
Chu Ning’s father had been kneeling on the futon the entire time. He had to keep a vigil. Chu Ning’s grandmother had passed away from overwork before Chu Zhe was born.
"You’re really lucky. If Old Chu sees all of you gathered here, he’ll be able to die in peace." An old man looked at the Chu family before him and said with a complicated tone.
He was Chu Ning’s grandfather’s cousin. When he saw that his cousin’s descendants had grown up, other than feeling sorry for his cousin, he was also gratified.
"Uncle, it’s late. You should go back and rest," Mrs. Chu said to the old man.
