Chapter 68: Chapter 68: This Grandmother and Granddaughter Are Praising Each Other**

""You!""

""What do you mean, 'you'? It's early in the morning—what are you doing here?""

Xu Shuhua looked at Old Lady Wang impatiently. She just couldn't figure it out—every time this old woman came over, she got put in her place, yet she still showed up every single day.

Could it be she had some special hobby, like actually enjoying being scolded or something?!

Actually, Old Lady Wang wasn't here today for anything else—she just wanted to see where Xu Shuhua had planted that wild jujube tree.

It was too late yesterday, so she hadn't been able to follow and check it out. So here she was, first thing in the morning.

When she saw the jujube tree planted right in the yard, looking all healthy and thriving, Old Lady Wang's eyelid twitched. ""You really planted it, huh? What, you even want these sour jujubes? I thought you were hoping to sell them for money!""

""Well, you got that right! Maybe I really can sell them for money!"" Xu Shuhua raised her eyebrows proudly. ""I made it clear in front of everyone yesterday—the jujube tree is mine now. So when I sell the fruit and make money, don't come running to my door, all jealous, trying to snatch some for yourselves. If you do, don't blame me for giving you a good slap! Anyway, you lot are used to going back on your word and slapping your own faces, so I doubt you'd mind taking a few more hits.""

Hearing this, Old Lady Wang instinctively covered her face.

She really felt like Xu Shuhua had already slapped her.

But soon enough, Old Lady Wang regained her composure. ""Quit bragging! You think you can actually sell those sour jujubes? If you really manage to sell them, I'll get down on my knees, kowtow, and call you Grandma!""

Xu Shuhua waved her hands. ""No need for that! Look at all those wrinkles on your face—calling me Grandma? Even if you’re not embarrassed, I’d feel like it’d shorten my life!""

""You—!""

""Alright, enough! All you can say is 'you this' and 'you that.' If you can't talk properly, go home and learn from your grandson. Come back when you’ve figured it out.""

Xu Shuhua waved Old Lady Wang off impatiently, as if she were shooing away an annoying fly.

In the end, Old Lady Wang left.

What else could she do? She couldn’t win in a fight, and she couldn’t win with words either.

Old Lady Wang left, grinding her teeth in frustration. She just couldn't understand how Xu Shuhua’s mouth could be so sharp!

""Bah! No matter how good you are with words, you still won’t be able to sell those jujubes!""

——

As soon as Old Lady Wang left, Chen Qiaoqin hurried over to ask Xu Shuhua, ""Mom, can we really sell those wild jujubes? Will anyone actually buy them?""

Xu Shuhua laughed. ""Is she silly, and you’re silly too? If we sell them, we make money. If we can’t sell them, we just take them back—what do we have to lose?""

Chen Qiaoqin looked a bit dazed. She thought it over seriously, and then suddenly realized.

That’s right!

From start to finish, Xu Shuhua had never said anything about what would happen if they couldn’t sell them.

It was Old Lady Wang who kept talking about kneeling and calling her Grandma.

Tsk tsk!

No wonder people said Xu Shuhua was impressive!

Chen Qiaoqin was full of admiration. ""Mom, you’re amazing!""

Yu Nuannuan silently agreed in her heart: She really is amazing!

She had never met such a capable old lady before.

And this amazing old lady was her grandma!

Yu Nuannuan grinned up at Xu Shuhua, showing off her two tiny rice-grain baby teeth, sparkling like little lights.

Xu Shuhua was delighted. ""Our Nuannuan’s teeth are growing so well! So white!""

Gu Mo looked at Yu Nuannuan, then at Xu Shuhua.

Even though Yu Nuannuan hadn’t said a word the whole time, he still felt like this grandmother and granddaughter were just busy praising each other!"
