Chapter 121 This is a living monkey

Mr. Jiang has a very clear understanding of himself. He is not completely selfish, but he definitely puts himself and his wife first.

Old Mrs. Jiang also agreed with her husband's words. After all, she was also a person who took care of herself and her old man first.

The four of them went to Donglaishun and ordered seven or eight hot pot dishes, including two kilograms of mutton, and four bottles of drinks. Jiang Hao was going to pay, but was stopped by Old Man Jiang.

"Lolo, this is the first time we're having dinner together. How can I let you pay? Besides, your grandma said earlier that we were treating. If she knew I asked you to pay, she'd definitely scold me. And don't you know us well enough? We're not the kind of people who would pay for a few meals."

When Jiang Hao heard what the old man said, and knowing that the old couple really didn't need this little money and tickets, he had no choice but to give up.

The old couple often come to Donglaishun to eat. The waiter is very familiar with them. While counting the money, he asked, "Is this your relative? Why haven't I seen him before?"

Mr. Jiang said, "My youngest son's child, my grandson, doesn't live in our Forbidden City, so you haven't seen him."

The waiter counted the money, glanced at the old man, and said jokingly, "I've never seen you bring anything here since you lived in our Forbidden City. But you brought this as soon as you arrived. You must be the grandson you love the most."

Mr. Jiang refused to admit it. "What? He's a living monkey. If you don't bring him here, he'll throw a tantrum and make a scene."

Jiang Hao smiled when he heard this and said, "They say the public has sharp eyes. Look, everyone can see that I am your most beloved grandson, but you are just stubborn and refuse to admit it."

The waiter looked at the two people and said with a smile, "Okay, the money is right, and the dishes are ready, you can go and eat quickly."

Mr. Jiang and his partner walked to the table where Mrs. Jiang was sitting and sat down.

Old Mrs. Jiang handed each of them a cup of large white pears and said with a smile, "This meal can be regarded as a welcome for you. You two must eat as much as you can, especially Luo Luo. Come, let's clink glasses."

"cheers"

"cheers"

"cheers"

Jiang Hao finished the drink in his cup, and seeing that the other three cups were empty, he filled them one by one.

As Mr. Jiang spoke, he put vegetables and meat into the copper pot, "Alright, let's eat."

After Shi Luo and Jiang Hao saw the two old people start eating, they also started to eat the hot pot dishes.

Jiang Hao picked up a piece of hot pot for Shi Luo and took a bite himself. "Oh, why don't you say the hot pot here is delicious? I feel like the ones I make at home just don't have the same flavor as those outside. Even this sesame paste, I think it tastes better here."

As Mrs. Jiang ate, she said, "It's not possible. There's no authentic copper pot hot pot back home. Here, whether it's the soup base or the dipping sauce, they all have recipes. You definitely can't make it taste this good yourself."

Mr. Jiang nodded in agreement. "This place is richer than our hometown, and there are more authentic snacks and specialties. By the way, how long do you plan to stay here?"

Jiang Hao: "It's less than two months. We plan to go back in mid-September."

Old Master Jiang glanced at Jiang Hao suspiciously and said in a low voice, "You chose this time to come here. You're not thinking of avoiding the autumn harvest under the guise of visiting me, are you?"

Jiang Hao gave the old man a thumbs up and said, "Yes, yes, old man, you still understand me."

Old Mrs. Jiang said, "If you don't work during the autumn harvest, won't your share of grain be less? Even if it's less, you'll still have to make up for it. Even if your parents don't object to this, your sisters-in-law will probably have no objections."

Jiang Hao: "My family split up this year. Whether it's a shortage of grain or money from the autumn harvest, it has nothing to do with my sisters-in-law. Why should they be unhappy?"

Mrs. Jiang paused for a moment as she picked up the food with her chopsticks. "We've split up. Your father didn't mention it in the letter. Is your eldest brother happy with your splitting up?"

Jiang Hao smiled brightly, "My dad probably didn't mention it because he was afraid you would worry.

My eldest brother is very happy about our family splitting up, but my eldest sister-in-law might not be so happy because even after the split, my eldest brother still sends me pocket money every month, hehe.

Old Master Jiang smiled and shook his head. "You little idiot, you just met a good brother. I don't know when your uncle's family split up. I can hear them quarreling every day even when I live in the backyard. I don't know why they have to live together."

Jiang Hao smiled slightly and said, "I know. My uncle didn't split up the family because Jiang Yinyin hasn't married yet, and the other reason must be because my aunt is not happy.

If they split up the family, my aunt would lose her authority and have less money. Then no one in the family would listen to her. She finally became a mother-in-law and a grandmother, so she should enjoy her power for a few more years.

Anyway, in my hometown, those who are unwilling to split up the family business all have this reason. How does that saying go? Oh, right, after being a daughter-in-law for many years and finally becoming a mother-in-law, you can’t just give up the power of the housekeeper easily.”

Mrs. Jiang looked at her with a face that was hard to describe. "You are a nagging mother, but you do have some truth in what you said.

"Ah, your aunt is just too stubborn. If she were like me and didn't care about anything, she would definitely be younger. You said that I, as a mother-in-law, have never made things difficult for your aunt, the daughter-in-law, so why does she still want to take money from her mother-in-law?"

Jiang Hao: "My grandma, do you think that if you don't care about my aunt, she will think of you well? If you don't care about anything and give her money, tickets, good food, drinks and clothes, then she will be satisfied."

Old Master Jiang laughed. "If your aunt really wants that, I don't think she'll ever remember our kindness in this lifetime. Your grandma and I are not stupid, so why should we sacrifice ourselves to fulfill her wish?"
