Lin Ying was so shocked by what Jiang Juecheng took out that her mouth dropped open. Her head was pounding as if she had been drinking, and she had no idea what day it was.

She looked up at Jiang Juecheng, then at the cookie box, and then suddenly reached out to pinch Jiang Juecheng.

Jiang Juecheng let out a howl as he was being pinched.

Lin Ying smiled. So this wasn't a dream after all.

Lin Ying slept with the cookie box in her arms that night, and no matter how much Jiang Juecheng tried to persuade her, it was no use.

That evening, Xu Xinning was also talking to Mu Jingheng about Jiang Juecheng and his wife.

Mu Jingheng never expected Jiang Juecheng to be so unreliable. He had taught Jiang to frequently surprise his wife to keep their love and marriage fresh, but this idiot was constantly creating surprises. Unfortunately, he had never shown them to Lin Ying, let alone told her what his surprises were.

I can't carry it, I really can't carry it.

I wonder if his brother, Mu Jinghuai, will be as dazed as Jiang Juecheng.

Xu Xinning: "You have no idea, after I told Lin Ying, Lin Ying was terrified."

Mu Jingheng was puzzled. Shouldn't he be overjoyed? Why was he so frightened?

Although he felt that Jiang Juecheng had not conveyed his philosophy on keeping the relationship fresh, a surprise is a surprise, so why was he so frightened?

Although Mu Jingheng was reborn, he had seen many secrets about keeping love fresh from young men in later generations, but this was his first time trying them out, so he had no experience to speak of.

Therefore, he couldn't understand why Xu Xinning said she was terrified.

Mu Jingheng: "What happened?"

Xu Xinning smiled and said, "I just told Lin Ying that Jiang Juecheng had bought several courtyard houses, and she was shocked. She said she knew better than anyone how much income Jiang Juecheng had, and besides, Jiang Juecheng always handed over 100 yuan every month when he got his salary. Lin Ying did the math and realized that Jiang Juecheng couldn't possibly have that much money even if he sold it, so she suspected that Jiang Juecheng might have made a mistake."

Mu Jingheng was completely bewildered: "Make a mistake?"

Xu Xinning suppressed a laugh and nodded, saying, "She thinks Jiang Juecheng made an economic mistake, hahaha..."

Mu Jingheng finally understood and laughed along, saying, "It's amazing that she came up with this!"

Xu Xinning: "It's no wonder she's worried. If Jiang Juecheng hadn't worked with you, how could he possibly have a side business? Without a side business, how would he have the money to buy a courtyard house? Lin Ying knows Jiang Juecheng very well, which is why she has this concern."

Mu Jingheng thought to himself, "They are a perfect match!"

Mu Jingheng has a special feeling for the Jiang family, so he always takes Jiang Juecheng with him no matter what he does. If it weren't for the protection and support of Old Master Jiang in his previous life, he wouldn't have been able to live to clear his family's name and avenge them, let alone climb to such a high position at such a young age.

In his past life, Grandpa Jiang was not only helping Mu Jingheng, but also helping himself. The death of Jiang Juecheng was a blow to him that could not be expressed in words. It can be said that his later help to Mu Jingheng was also a way of transferring the same grandfatherly affection he had for Jiang Juecheng onto Mu Jingheng. Mu Jingheng was his salvation and a continuation of his grandfatherly affection for Jiang Juecheng.

In this life, Mu Jingheng's actions towards the Jiang family are out of gratitude.

The next morning, the Jiang family of seven arrived again, bringing their own food. Lin Ying mainly wanted to share her excitement from the previous night with Xu Xinning. If Jiang Juecheng hadn't stopped her, she would have wanted to share it with Xu Xinning last night.

She's a rich woman now, one of those people the leaders were talking about who got rich first, a millionaire! She's a millionaire, how long would it take her to count all her assets if they were converted into cash?

Who can understand the feeling of suddenly becoming rich overnight?

How could she not be excited?

When her adrenaline surged, she wanted to show off to someone, and Xu Xinning was the perfect target. Showing off to her would satisfy her vanity and was also the safest option.

In this day and age, people with ten thousand yuan are not common, especially those of their status. They have to keep a low profile, otherwise it would be bad if someone used this to attack them.

In fact, the world is never short of rich people, no matter what era it is, it's just that many of them live a low-key life.

In the early 1980s, during the reform and opening up period, people with 10,000 yuan in assets were publicized and used as role models. But who were the truly wealthy and powerful people who were publicized?

Overcome with excitement, Lin Ying disregarded all taboos and got up before dawn to buy a lot of breakfasts that Grandpa Jiang, Grandpa Mu, and the children liked. She didn't care about whether they were healthy or not; her main goal today was to eat comfortably.

I'll buy douzhi (fermented mung bean juice)!

Western breakfast, buy it!

Steamed buns, buy them!

Dumplings and wontons, buy them!

Congee and fried dough sticks, I'll buy them!

Buy whatever you see. We're rich, we're millionaires. What's wrong with eating what we want?

If you don't like it, then buy it yourself!

Hehe, too bad you guys aren't millionaires!

At this moment, Lin Ying had the mentality of a nouveau riche who had become rich from a poor background, and she was getting carried away.

Jiang Juecheng hadn't slept well all night, and then he was dragged out of bed early this morning to buy breakfast. The level of exhaustion was comparable to going on a mission.

The aunt was stunned when she came over and saw the table full of breakfast.

What's going on?

Are we just going to give up on life?

Xu Xinning was also forced to get up early today, but seeing Jiang Juecheng's dark circles made her feel better.

Although Xu Xinning was a princess in her previous life and was used to grand occasions, she was still stunned for a while when she saw the breakfast Lin Ying bought.

Did they buy breakfast from every single breakfast stall on the street?

It must have been hard for them to make so many trips.

In this era, breakfast wasn't packaged like it would be in later times; people bought it in their own containers and carried it home.

With so many different breakfast options, you can imagine how much effort Jiang Juecheng put in!

I estimate that I exceeded my exercise limit this morning.

The aunt immediately came over when she saw Xu Xinning and asked softly, "What happened?"

Xu Xinning glanced at Lin Ying not far away with amusement and said, "The Jiang family has good news, Lin Ying is happy."

The aunt blurted out, "Is Xiaoying pregnant with a girl?"

Xu Xinning was amused by her aunt's words, "Auntie! They already have two children, having another one would be a matter of mindset."

The aunt patted her mouth a few times; how could she have forgotten about this?

Hsu Hsin-ning: "If she's happy to buy it, we'll happily eat it. Who cares what's going on with her?"

After hearing what Xu Xinning said, the aunt felt relieved.

These are all capable people; they must have something good going on.

The aunt's mindset has changed after spending a lot of time with young people.

She used to be unable to tolerate any extravagance or waste, and she would be very frugal when making food. Even when she wanted to increase the nutrition of the old leader, she would think and think again and again, always trying to use the fewest ingredients to make them exert the greatest energy. She would turn fish bones, fish scales, melon peels, fruit peels, and internal organs into a nutritious and delicious dish.

But things are different now. Conditions are better, and people pay attention to nutritional balance and nutrition. They no longer rack their brains over what to eat.
