I relied on a system to prolong my life in ancient times.

Chapter 205 Xiao Qinian wants Grandma Lin's family to go to the capital.

After racking his brains for a long time, Xiao Qinian finally came up with an idea.

However, seeing that everyone in the room had calmed down, Xiao Qinian knew there was still plenty of time, so he wasn't in a hurry.

The third brother and sister-in-law of the Xiao family, along with Xiao's younger sister, comforted Xiao's eldest sister. Xiao's eldest sister felt a little better: "Eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, and younger sister, don't worry, I have let go of this matter. From now on, just pretend that I only gave birth to Le'an, my only son."

"Big sister, it's good that you think this way." Seeing that her eldest sister was no longer as sad as before, Aunt Xiao felt much relieved. She was afraid that her eldest sister was still thinking about that ungrateful wretch, and that her depression and sadness would harm her health.

“Yes, look at what a good boy Le’an is. Now he’s married and might even have a grandson soon. Your good days are yet to come, so you’d better take good care of yourself,” Aunt Xiao chimed in.

"That's right, Shuwen is such a good daughter-in-law, I'm so envious." This was the truth. His two sons were not young, but neither of them was married, and he didn't know when they would be able to find wives. His grandchildren were nowhere to be seen either.

"Haha, Second Sister-in-law, what are you envious of? Sizhe is so promising, he might even marry you a rich young lady in the future." Aunt Xiao was amused by Second Aunt Xiao's words and burst into laughter through her tears.

However, she also agreed in her heart that Le'an was a filial son, and Shuwen was someone she had personally chosen. Since marrying into the family, she had been very filial to them, which made her feel very comforted. Thinking of this, Aunt Xiao put aside her ungrateful son Su Lekang and chatted with her sister-in-law and brother and sister-in-law.

After having a meal at the Xiao family home, both Xiao Xiaogu and Xiao Dagu's families went home.

The next day, all the daughters-in-law in the family were going back to their parents' homes, and Xiao Qinian's family of four did the same.

However, they are not going to Dahe Village this time. Last year, Grandma Lin's family bought a house in the town and moved there.

Once they arrived in town, they found the Lin family's current residence.

Xiao Siyue looked around and saw that the location was not bad, not too far from their shop.

The gate was open, so Xiao Siyue and the others went straight in.

It's a traditional courtyard house with one entrance. The courtyard is decorated very warmly. Although it's not very big, it's more than enough for the Lin family to live in.

As soon as we entered the courtyard, Grandma Lin came out.

She was quite surprised to see the group, especially Xiao Qinian and his son, because she knew her son-in-law was busy with official duties and she didn't expect him to come back this year.

"Xiaoqin, son-in-law, you're back? Come in quickly." Grandma Lin had probably been busy and her hands were still wet. She had originally wanted to pull Lin Qin up, but after reaching out, she withdrew her hand, wiped it on her apron, and then took off her apron and placed it on the stool in the yard.

"Mother," Lin Qin and Xiao Qinian called out in unison.

Xiao Siyue and Xiao Siyu both called out "Grandma" to her.

Grandma Lin beamed with joy. Her eldest daughter's family lived nearby, and she could see them often, but her youngest daughter's family lived too far away, and she only saw them once every few years.

"Mother-in-law, where did my elder brother go?" Xiao Qinian asked.

"Your older brother has gone to the shop. I'll have Dandan go and call him." Grandma Lin said as she went outside and called Lin Dandan.

"Dandan, hurry up and go to the shop to call your dad and the others back. Your aunt's family is back."

"Ah, has Yue'er returned yet?" Lin Dandan was very happy to hear this and turned her head to look into the house.

"They're back, the whole family is back." Grandma Lin's voice was full of joy.

"Grandma, I'm going right now." Lin Dandan said and turned to leave.

After giving her instructions, Grandma Lin went back inside.

"Grandma, didn't Sister Dandan go to the shop to help?" Xiao Siyue remembered that Lin Dandan really liked going to the shop.

“No, your sister Dandan is fourteen years old now, and she stays at home learning needlework. Your uncle and the others are enough to manage things at the shop,” said Grandma Lin.

"I see." Xiao Siyue understood. Lin Dandan would be of marriageable age in another year, so it was no longer appropriate for her to appear in public.

Not long after, Uncle Lin returned.

Not only Uncle Lin, but the whole family came back.

"Brother, you're all back now. Who's managing the shop?" Did they hire a new employee?

"It's alright, the shop being closed for a day won't matter," Uncle Lin said nonchalantly.

My sister's family rarely comes back, so how much can we lose if the shop is closed for a day?

Lin Qin felt a little embarrassed. Had they delayed her brother's family from doing business?

However, since the shop was already closed, Lin Qin didn't say anything more.

"Why did you come back this time, brother-in-law?" After sitting down, Uncle Lin started chatting with Xiao Qinian.

After Xiao Qinian recounted the events, the Lin family fell silent for a moment.

After a while, Grandma Lin said, "This is a good thing. Who wouldn't want to go to the capital?"

Although Grandma Lin said this, there was a fleeting look of sadness in her eyes. Before, in Qianyuan County, they could only wait a long time for people to come back to see them. If they moved their family to the capital, would they ever come back?

Lin Qin naturally knew what her grandmother was thinking.

"Mother, don't worry, even if we go to the capital, we will come back. Have you forgotten that the Xiao family's roots are here? We come back every year to pay respects to our ancestors." Even if Xiao Qinian doesn't have time to come back, the others will. She will come back with them to visit.

"Oh right, how could I have forgotten about that?" Grandma Lin's face immediately broke into a smile.

"Besides, the capital isn't too far from us. I can bring you to the capital to take a tour."

"Can I go to the capital too?" Grandma Lin was very excited when she heard her daughter say this.

“Why can’t I do this? I’m your daughter,” Lin Qin said, somewhat speechless.

“Yes, Mother-in-law, you can go whenever you want. If you want to come to the capital, just send me a letter and I'll send someone to pick you up,” Xiao Qinian quickly added.

Grandma Lin's eyes lit up immediately. Compared to her daughter's words, her son-in-law's words carried more weight.

The other members of the Lin family also had their eyes sparkling. If their mother/grandmother went to the capital, could they go with her? Even if it meant dying once, they wanted to broaden their horizons and see what the capital was really like.

"Brother, have you ever thought about opening a shop in the capital and settling down here in the future?" Xiao Qinian didn't want his wife to travel so far to visit her parents' home. In the past few years, because of him, his wife had only been back to her parents' home twice, and he felt a little guilty.

"Is the capital city suitable for us?" Although Uncle Lin was tempted, he was still hesitant. Although he had never been to the capital, he knew that it was a place where every inch of land was extremely valuable.
