On the highway, President Jiang called.

Jiang Yu, who got off work a little earlier today, didn't see Chen Cixiu come home. She assumed he was still working overtime, so she decided to go home and cook a meal herself.

They haven't cooked for themselves for almost half a month, except for breakfast.

But when she got home, it was already 9 p.m. and she still hadn't seen Chen Cixiu come back. She sent him a WeChat message, but he didn't reply. She thought he might be too busy at the company to see the message.

After all, she knew that Haochi Media was going to hold a New Year's Eve party tomorrow, and she had even received an invitation.

Whether she goes or not is up to her.

Knowing that Haochi Media was going to hold a company New Year's Eve party, she didn't urge them.

But it's already nine o'clock, which is quite late. Even if I'm busy, I should probably reply to myself by now.

Fortunately, President Jiang was working while waiting, and unexpectedly, it was already nine o'clock.

Looking at the food that had gone cold, a hint of disappointment appeared on Jiang Yu's lips, which led to this phone call.

"Hey? Where are you? Are you coming back?"

Jiang Yu inquired.

Chen Cixiu had just turned on his phone when Jiang Yu sent him a message. He was about to reply when he received a call from Ms. Liu Xian, who asked him to look for Jiang Yu's childhood photo album when he went to Luotan Village. They had been looking for that album for a long time but hadn't found it. She asked him to see if he could find it.

They talked a lot about their engagement, and in the middle of the conversation, Chen Cixiu forgot to reply to Jiang Yu's message.

He thought he had replied to her message, so he didn't pay attention to it, left his phone in the car, and headed straight for Luotan Village.

My phone happened to be out of battery again, and I forgot to charge it, so I quickly plugged in the charging cable, and now it's turned on perfectly.

I received a call from Jiang Yu as soon as I turned on my phone.

After receiving the call, Chen Cixiu quickly apologized, "Honey, I just realized I didn't reply to your message. I thought I had. Here's the thing, I have to go out of town now and won't be back until tomorrow. I'm so sorry for keeping you busy for so long. I haven't even been able to have a meal with you yet. Don't worry, I'll definitely cook you a delicious meal when I get back tomorrow. You can order and I'll cook. If I don't know how, I'll just learn."

Pfft!

Jiang Yu's frustration vanished instantly. "I don't want you to learn on the spot. If you do, you're just using me as a guinea pig. Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Send me a message when you get there. Drive safely, okay?"

"Okay, I got it. Go to bed early and don't stay up late."

Jiang Yu agreed, hung up the phone to avoid disturbing him while he was driving, looked at the delicious food in front of her, took a deep breath, and then, as if remembering something, called Gu Qianqian.

I was planning to invite Gu Qianqian over for dinner, but she said she was too busy.

She glanced at her WeChat Moments, thought for a moment, and decided against it. It was the weekend, so she wouldn't take away Lin Xiaoxiao's happy weekend time.

As for Tan Jing...

If Tan Jing comes out, she'll probably have to bring her child along, not because her husband doesn't take care of the child.

On the contrary, Tan Jing's husband loves taking care of his child, but Tan Jing believes that if her husband continues to do so, her child will be in danger, so she has been trying to communicate with him recently.

So she had to eat by herself, and she didn't keep the leftovers overnight.

After all, meat doesn't taste good after being left overnight.

Chen Cixiu drove until 11 o'clock before arriving at Luotan Village.

His aunt asked him when he arrived, so she specially saved some food for him, all of it hot.

He was indeed hungry, and he ate rather quickly. His aunt looked at her nephew-in-law with a kind expression.

She really liked this child, which shows that Yu Yu's judgment was correct. When her old man passed away, this child was busy taking care of things. Although the other children in the family also helped, they only did so under the watchful eyes of the adults. This wasn't because they were unfilial; it was just that some of the children were experiencing this for the first time, and they were also very sad inside, so they seemed a bit dull.

She wouldn't blame her own family's children, but she genuinely liked Chen Cixiu.

I am genuinely happy that Yu Yu has a good husband.

"How is it? Is it delicious?"

Auntie asked with a smile.

"It's delicious, Auntie. Your cooking is my favorite thing to eat when I come to your house."

Chen Cixiu praised.

His aunt smiled happily, then waved to him while leaning on her cane.

"Child, come here."

At this time of day, no one from the Jiang family is home; they've all gone to work. Auntie doesn't want them to take care of her; she often says that she's still healthy and it's not her children's place to take care of her.

They also refused to hire a caregiver.

She also refused to hire a nanny.

As long as Auntie is willing, the Jiang family can find a nanny and a housekeeper even in the village.

When my uncle was alive, there were nannies and housekeepers. After he passed away, my aunt asked Mr. Jiang to take all the nannies and housekeepers away, leaving my aunt alone in the house. She said she wanted to be alone and have some peace and quiet and didn't want it to be too noisy.

Chen Cixiu followed his aunt to the dressing room.

Aunt opened the wardrobe.

The closet is full of wedding dresses.

"Yu Yu didn't tell you that her uncle was a tailor when he was young, did she?" Auntie asked with a smile.

Chen Cixiu really didn't know this, so he shook his head.

"Your aunt asked you to come back today mainly so that you can take this wedding dress with you."

This is a red wedding dress, and Chen Cixiu could tell at a glance that it was ridiculously expensive.

Moreover, the handcrafting is excellent.

Auntie explained, "This wedding dress was made by Yu Yu's uncle when she came of age. He said he hoped Yu Yu would wear this wedding dress when she got married."

"Then these."

Chen Cixiu pointed to the other wedding dresses.

His aunt told him about the origins of these wedding clothes.

It turns out that the eldest uncle would personally make a wedding dress for each of the Jiang family's children when they came of age.

Even President Jiang's wedding attire was made by his uncle.

Jiang Yu's set was the last one her uncle made.

Chen Cixiu stroked the wedding dress, feeling the old man's love for the child.

He even felt a promise weighing heavily on his heart, as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Suddenly, as he stroked his wedding dress, he touched a square object.

Chen Cixiu lifted it up and took a look.

It turned out to be a photo album.

"Huh? How did this photo album end up here?"

"My aunt said in surprise."

Chen Cixiu asked, "Aunt, what is this?"

"This is Yu Yu's childhood photo album. It was originally placed here by the old man to hold the waist of her wedding dress in place."

Aunt nodded repeatedly, becoming more and more satisfied with Chen Cixiu.

If Chen Cixiu hadn't been asked to come back today to get his wedding dress, we might not have found this photo album in a long time.

Chen Cixiu opened the photo album, and a pretty girl in the album came into view.

It turns out that Jiang Yu really has been beautiful since she was a child.
