35-year-old Jiang Li was unmarried and childless, running her own small company with an annual income of several million, living a wonderful life.
19-year-old Jiang Li was pretty but brainles...
Jiang Li looked at the two bracelets on her hands, one on the left and one on the right. She frowned and was so surprised that she couldn't speak.
Jiang Li found that the two bracelets were almost the same in color and size.
Strictly speaking, the bracelet my grandma gave me is more lustrous and looks of better texture.
These two bracelets are clearly a pair, but my mother-in-law can only own one bracelet, so how can she have a pair?
"These two bracelets were originally a pair. I originally planned to give the one I'm wearing to your mother-in-law after I was a hundred years old."
"But you also know that your mother-in-law and I don't get along. We can't eat together or talk to each other. I feel unwilling to give her my most beloved bracelet after a hundred years."
"But you are different, little girl. We get along very well. I like your personality, I like eating what you cook, and I like listening to what you say even more."
"Instead of giving this table to your mother-in-law, why not give it to you? Who wouldn't like such a beautiful, smart and well-behaved girl?"
Grandma looked at Jiang Li with a smile and told her her true feelings from the bottom of her heart.
"Grandma, thank you for your love for me, but this bracelet must be very important to you, right? I'm afraid it's inappropriate to give it to me casually like this."
Jiang Li wanted to return the bracelet, but her grandmother held her hand, preventing her from taking any further action.
"Just take what grandma gave you. Grandma gave you things because she likes you. I would not give you a cent if I didn't like you!"
Grandma patted Jiang Li's shoulder and spoke earnestly.
Jiang Li thought about it and felt that what grandma said made sense.
She looked up and saw the earnest look in her grandmother's eyes, and she couldn't say no no matter what.
"Thank you for your love, grandma. I also like your personality. I think she is very cute. I wish I had such a nice grandma."
Jiang Li's grandmother died when she was very young, and she has never received love from her elders.
Among all the relatives in her family, the only one who treated her best was her uncle, who was a dozen years older than her.
"Silly child, you and Chang'an already have a child, and you're going to get married soon. I'm Chang'an's grandmother, so I'm your grandmother, right?"
Grandma coaxed Jiang Li gently like she was coaxing a child. Her words were warm and thoughtful, and Jiang Li felt warm inside.
"Grandma, you are really the best grandma."
The two of them huddled together and talked about some personal matters, and Yuying carefully took out the water for washing the child's buttocks.
She took advantage of this time to take a quick bath. After the two grandmothers and grandchildren finished talking, she still had to help the old lady take a bath and change clothes.
At 8 o'clock the next morning, Jiang Li had just finished breakfast when there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Li listened to Shen Changan's words and kept the door open waiting. He didn't expect that the person Shen Changan invited was so reliable and came on time at 8 o'clock.
Jiang Li quickly opened the door and saw two middle-aged women in plain clothes standing at the door a little awkwardly.
"Excuse me, is this Jiang Li's house? We're here to help with some work, so we shouldn't be in the wrong place, right?"
As they were talking, they looked up and stared at the door number for a while, and only felt relieved after confirming that it was this place.
"I'm Jiang Li. Please come in. There's a lot of work waiting for you to do."
Jiang Li decided to make carrot cake first, so he asked them to wash the carrots and then peel them.
Jiang Li gave each of them a basket of radishes and a basin.
"The radish skin must be peeled cleanly, especially both ends."
Jiang Li took a radish to demonstrate and also negotiated the price with them.
As expected of the people chosen by Shen Changan, these two aunts look simple and honest, and they work very efficiently.
While they were busy, Jiang Li was not idle either. She started to do some preparatory work.
Yuying followed the old lady upstairs to take care of the children, but what she wanted to do most was to make pastries with Jiang Li.
The food made by Jiang Li has a very unique taste. It is not only delicious but also makes people feel refreshed after eating it.
The most obvious example is the old lady. Some time ago, the old lady was in poor health and was always sleepy during the day.
Ever since she came to Jiang Li's place, she has been eating the delicious food made by Jiang Li every day, and her body has become stronger and stronger.
During this period, she was full of energy during the day, and even if she took a short nap in the afternoon, it wouldn't be too long.
Although her rest time was shorter, her mental state was getting better and better.
People who couldn’t even finish half a bowl of rice before now eat a big bowl of rice every day. The rice is not enough, and they also want some pastries from time to time.
If she continued to eat like this, her stomach would definitely not be able to handle it after a long time.
But I didn't expect that she could not only handle it, but also brought many effects.
These days, when she combed the old lady's hair, she found that there were a few black hairs mixed in with her silver hair.
You know, she has been with the old lady for more than 20 years, and she has watched Shen Changan grow up.
The old lady's hair had turned completely white five years ago. No matter how much food and medicine she took, there was no improvement at all.
It may be because she was in a good mood during this period, and the food Jiang Li prepared for her was delicious and a good combination of meat and vegetables, which made her look younger.
Yuying guessed in her heart that she was a little absent-minded when taking care of the children.
The old lady is of her age and has experienced many ups and downs.
Yuying has been with her for many years and she has long understood her personality.
She looked so distracted at the moment that even if she was forced to stay and take care of the child, it would probably only have the opposite effect.
"If you want to help make the pastries, then go ahead."
"But these two children?"
The old lady saw what she was thinking, and Yuying felt a little embarrassed. She wanted to go but was worried about her two children.
After all, the old lady is old and needs someone to take care of her. It is unacceptable for an 80-year-old woman to take care of her great-grandson.
"It's okay. They're quite obedient and can play on their own even at their age. Besides, you're just downstairs. If anything happens, I'll just shout at the stairs and you can just come up."
When Yuying heard what the old lady said, she felt that what she said made sense. She had been thinking about making pastries, and she felt that it would be difficult to do the work if she stayed here, so she simply went downstairs.
Yuying came to the kitchen and saw Jiang Li washing glutinous rice, so she hurried forward to help.
"Jiang Li, let me do these small things, you can just do the other things."
"Aunt Yuying, why don't you take care of the children with the old lady?"
Jiang Li was a little surprised that Yuying suddenly came to help.
Yuying smiled and repeated what she had said to the old lady.
"I thought you had to make so many pastries and it would be too much for you to handle it all by yourself, so I wanted to come and help you."
