Chapter 1168: You’ve been hiding it from me

Xinyan noticed the change in her grandmother’s face: “Grandma, what’s wrong?”

Mrs. Gu didn't even hang up the phone with trembling hands. She pointed outside anxiously, but she couldn't speak.

This startled Xinyan, and she hurriedly shouted to where her grandpa and the others were standing: "Grandpa, come here quickly."

Mr. Gu was talking to He Jinxuan when he looked up and saw something was wrong with his wife: "Shuqing, what's wrong with you?"

He walked to the old wife’s side in a few steps, and hurriedly helped the person to sit down first. He saw the phone that had been hung up: “Who called just now?”

Mrs. Gu stared at the old man’s eyes: “Have you been hiding this from me?”

Mr. Gu immediately understood the meaning of this and quickly explained: "No, I'm just not sure yet. I want to wait until I have the exact news before I tell you. I don't want you to be disappointed again."

Mrs. Gu burst into tears instantly and said, "But you clearly know how much I want to know about the two of you."

Mr. Gu sighed and helped his wife caress her back: "It's my fault, I shouldn't hide it from you."

Xinyan understood now that there was news about her second uncle.

Seeing that her expression softened, she was anxious to ask about life and death and could only resign herself to her fate: "Grandpa, is there any news about your second uncle?"

Mr. Gu nodded lightly: "I haven't found the person yet, so I didn't say anything. I was afraid that if the news was wrong, your grandma wouldn't be able to bear it."

Xinyan can naturally understand her grandfather's good intentions, but she is afraid that if she gives hope and ends up disappointed, it would be better to not know about it all the time.

Mrs. Gu said excitedly: "The person over there said that the person who sent the photos is already on the way, and he will probably arrive in the next few days."

Mr. Gu did not dare to say anything to throw cold water at this moment: "You know your body well, but you must not be impatient."

Mrs. Gu knew it very well, but she still could not suppress the excitement in her heart: "I know, I know, I will take good care of myself and wait for our Yize to come back."

Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "That's not possible. As for the treat, I informed them after knowing that the date for your return to China has been decided. How can you set another date because of me?"

Besides, Aunt Li and the others have ordered the ingredients this morning, and they started preparing it in the morning. Don’t worry, grandma will be fine after a while. It’s a good thing to have news, and I should be happy. " Xinyan felt a little sorry for her grandmother and squatted in front of her: "Grandma, if you want to cry, just cry. It will make you feel better if you cry. "

Mrs. Gu stretched out her arms and hugged Xinyan: "When things happened one after another at home, my grandma shed all her tears. At that time, I understood that tears are the most useless thing."

Patted Xinyan's shoulders: "Don't worry, grandma is fine. Just take a moment and you'll be fine."

Xinyan was still worried, so she sent the person back to the bedroom, watched the person fall asleep, and then came out.

He Jinxuan knew that Xinyan had something to say to Mr. Gu, so he took his brother-in-law from the old man's hand: "I'll take Junjun out for a walk."

Xinyan smiled at the considerate He Jinxuan: "Don't go too far."

The little guy Junjun didn’t want to stay at home, but when he heard that he was about to go out, his little hand kept pointing outside, and he almost said ‘go’.

It’s a pity that I can’t say it, so I can only say ‘ah, ah’ to the outside.

Xinyan helped the little guy put on his hat, pinched his little face and said, "You are such a heartless little kid, he just knows how to go out."

Watching the two people go out, Xinyan asked: "Grandpa, is the news reliable?"

Mr. Gu sighed: "You can only be sure if you find someone.

The person who sent the message only said that someone had seen your second uncle in Sichuan Province and found an old photo from another house, but they didn't know the specific whereabouts of the person. "

Xinyan finally understood, but she still had to look for the needle in the haystack. However, the scope of the haystack had shrunk, but after so many years, it was unknown whether her second uncle was still in Sichuan Province.

Mr. Gu exhaled and said, "It just so happens that we also have to take a trip."

Xinyan then remembered that they had indeed agreed to visit the Gu family's treasure trove: "That place is actually in Sichuan Province?"

Mr. Gu nodded slightly: "I have only heard my grandfather and father mention it several times. Naturally, eggs cannot be put in the same basket."
