外公要结婚

Wàigōng Yào Jiéhūn

Grandpa's Getting Married

Five years after Grandma died, Xiaoxi's grandpa announces at Sunday dinner that he's marrying Auntie Qin, a retired bus driver from his calligraphy class -- and Xiaoxi's mum walks out of the restaurant. Twenty chapters: a worried uncle, the other family's objections, a night in hospital, a letter Grandma left behind, a wedding dress at sixty-five, and a wedding on the Xiang River.

HSK 320 chapters
