Chapter 1215: Marrying in the Name of Stepsister
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chu's expression froze, and she made up an excuse and said:
"I came in a hurry and a gold lock fell off, and I didn't have time to buy a new one.
Your grandfather's birthday is coming up soon, I will make it up to Mian Mian after I finish my work."
Chu Qi knew that she was just talking and would definitely not make it up to her.
She was so distracted even when dealing with her son and daughter, which made Chu Qi feel very sad.
She felt particularly uncomfortable hugging Mianmian, while Mrs. Chu kept teasing Song Jinyu.
I hardly looked at Song Mianmian.
Even Jiang Wan, an outsider, felt a little suffocated. No wonder Chu Qi and Mrs. Chu always couldn't agree with each other.
"By the way, I have picked out a few girls for Ge'er. See who is suitable to marry Ge'er."
Mrs. Chu gave the maid a look, and the maid brought over a few portraits and introduced them carefully.
Chu Qi said calmly, "Mom, you shouldn't ask me this. You should see what Ge'er thinks."
"You are his sister, so what's wrong with helping him?"
Mrs. Chu was embarrassed because Jiang Wan was present, otherwise her tone would have been even more unpleasant.
"Mom, my sister-in-law and I still have something to discuss. I'll come visit you in person later when I'm done."
Chu Qi really didn't want to stay with Mrs. Chu for long, and she felt very embarrassed when her daughter drove her away.
However, in front of Jiang Wan, she endured it again and again, "Okay, take good care of the child."
After Mrs. Chu left, Chu Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief and said to Jiang Wan apologetically:
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law. It was too uncomfortable for me to stay with her, so I pulled you out."
"It's okay. I understand you."
Jiang Wan gently hugged Chu Qi to comfort her, "If you feel uncomfortable, give Mianmian a gold lock yourself.
If a child grows up and feels that her grandmother doesn’t like her, she will feel uncomfortable.”
"Thank you for the reminder, sister-in-law."
Chu Qi also thought so. In fact, she knew that her mother loved her, otherwise she would not be so good to Yu'er.
But mother loves boys more.
"We are a family, why should we be so polite?"
Before Jiang Wan left, she told Chu Qi, "When Mr. Chu holds his birthday party, I will go with you.
It's up to you whether you want to take Mianmian with you when the time comes."
"Even if she doesn't like Mianmian, I will still take her with me."
Chu Qi smiled and said, "Grandfather also likes Mianmian. He used to treat me and Ge'er the same way."
"It's good that you can let it go. As an aunt, I like Mianmian and Xinxin more."
Jiang Wan chuckled and touched Mianmian's little face, and Mianmian smiled at Jiang Wan.
Although it hasn't grown teeth yet, its adorable appearance can instantly melt people's hearts.
After Chu Qi settled the children, he went to the front yard to see his father and grandfather.
Jiang Wan didn't go. When she was returning to her own courtyard, she passed by Song Jiuli's courtyard.
Song Jiuli's happy voice came from inside, and Jiang Wan was a little curious for a moment.
Considering that Song Jiuli was still in confinement after giving birth, she must be quite bored staying at home, so I decided to go in and take a look.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Sheng Yi holding his daughter with a smile on his face. Although Song Jiuli still had an awkward look on her face, she was obviously smiling.
"Sister-in-law."
Song Jiuli was very happy to see Jiang Wan, but Jiang Wan was busy trying to stop her.
"Don't move. I heard your laughter outside. What makes you so happy?"
"I've decided what to name my child, what if I call him Shengcan?"
Song Jiuli tilted her head and smiled innocently: "I hope her life will be extremely brilliant."
She had been raised carefree since she was a child, so naturally she hoped her children would be the same.
“It sounds good.”
Jiang Wan looked at Cancan. The child had been well taken care of in the womb and was now fair and tender.
Although her eyes couldn't focus yet, it was obvious that she was very strong.
At this moment, he was waving his little fists and staring wide-eyed, trying to get a closer look at Jiang Wan.
"Sister-in-law thinks it sounds good too, right?"
Song Jiuli was quite proud, "I like this name too, but someone thinks it's not good."
She was naturally talking about Sheng Yi. Meeting Song Jiuli's eyes, Sheng Yi had no choice but to compromise.
"Okay then, let's call you Cancan."
He had thought of several names, but Li'er was not at all impatient to listen.
After all, I was still angry about Susu.
"It would have been better if it had been like this earlier."
Song Jiuli snorted lightly, and seeing that Cancan was drowsy, Sheng Yi handed the child to the wet nurse.
In front of Jiang Wan, Sheng Yi said hesitantly: "Sister-in-law, there is something I want to discuss with Li'er first. Sister-in-law, please listen too."
"you say."
Jiang Wan listened attentively and even went forward to help Song Jiuli who was trying to get out of bed.
"Sister-in-law, I'm fine. You are a good doctor and I will recover quickly."
Song Jiuli chuckled, but she was still a little afraid of giving birth.
I never want to suffer this again.
“Susu was ignorant before and offended me a lot, but she has realized her mistakes.
She also personally clarified the rumors. I agreed to her marriage and thought of marrying her off as my stepsister.
Let her marry from the Sheng Mansion. The dowry doesn't need to be much. I can take some out of my salary."
Seeing that Jiang Wan and Song Jiuli were silent, he quickly assured: "Li'er, I don't have any other thoughts.
But since I have already acknowledged her as my sister, it would also be better to clarify the matter of her previously living in our house.
Letting her marry out of our house can also be used to silence the gossips. Besides, Lieutenant General Zhou is very loyal.
If Su Su really wants to live a good life with him in the future, she will inevitably have to come into contact with them."
"Sister-in-law, what do you think?"
Song Jiuli couldn't make up her mind. She looked at Jiang Wan for advice. It was unlikely that she had no grudge against Su Su.
but……
It's not easy to get her to forgive her.
Jiang Wan pondered for a moment, then smiled and said to Song Jiuli, "This matter depends on your attitude.
If you feel unhappy, let Sheng Yi handle it himself."
Confirming the relationship with her as a stepsister can indeed shut up those who talk nonsense behind her back.
Song Jiuli heard the hidden meaning in Jiang Wan's words, raised his chin slightly and said:
"Forget it, Susu is also a poor person, let's do as you say."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. Thank you, Li'er."
Sheng Yi's face was filled with joy, and he considerately left space for the two of them to chat.
He left quickly to inform Deputy General Zhou of the good news.
Seeing how happy he was, Song Jiuli felt very depressed, "Sister-in-law, why did you ask me to agree to him?"
"Silly girl, if you don't agree to him, he will always feel guilty towards Su Su and Deputy General Zhou. It's better to be generous on the surface."
Jiang Wan gently poked her forehead and said, "As for the so-called dowry, you can help take care of it when the time comes.
It all depends on you, and you will be Susu's family in the future.
Not only does she not dare to target you, she also has to maintain good relationships with her natal family, so as not to be looked down upon by her in-laws.
Later, when you can control her."
