Chapter 44
Jiang Zhe saw that she was unhappy, so he stretched out his fingers to gently smooth out the wrinkles on her brow, and said, "You should get well from your cold first, and I'll take you out to play when the weather gets better."
As soon as the topic of going out to play came up, Jiang Yu immediately became interested and asked, "Where do you want to take me to play?"
"Go see the ice lanterns?"
Jiang Yu thought it was a good idea: "Okay."
But she was a little worried: "Jiang Luoluo is so young, it's not suitable for her to go to such a cold place."
Jiang Zhe didn't care about the little guy next to him at all and said, "We won't take her with us then."
Jiang Yu looked at her mother who was hugging the little boy and coaxing him with a guilty look, and said, "It's not good for you to do this. If the two of us go out to play secretly, what will happen to the child?"
Jiang Zhe said: "Let Auntie, your parents and my mother take care of him."
Jiang Yu glanced at her mother again: "Mom."
I have to say, Jiang Yu was moved.
If her parents had agreed to hire two aunts, she wouldn't have felt so guilty about leaving her children behind to go out and play.
Although Zhu Zhi said that to them, she was indeed happy for the two of them to go out and play more often. After all, only when the relationship between parents is good can the children be well.
She waved her hands and said, "If you two want to go, go ahead. We will take care of the child. But before you leave, you have to let me recover from your illness."
Jiang Yu was very positive: "Okay, Mom."
After laughing, she continued to wipe her nose with a tissue.
Jiang Yu was not feeling well, but the little kid would not let her go. After being held by her grandmother for a while, she saw her mother and reached out for her mother to hold her. Jiang Yu was afraid that she would pass the illness on to her, so naturally she was unwilling and quickly hid in Jiang Zhe's study.
The little guy didn't get a hug from his mother, so he started crying outside.
Although Jiang Yu felt distressed when she heard this, she still did not get too close to the baby for the sake of her child.
Arriving at Jiang Zhe's study, Jiang Yu felt a little bored. He had some information to process. Jiang Yu looked at him working seriously, holding her cheek with her hand, and then watched him work.
The man was good-looking, wearing a white sweater and looking focused on his work. He was quiet, gentle, handsome, and had a soft profile.
Jiang Zhe felt someone was looking at him. He looked up and saw Jiang Yu, who was supposed to be reading a book, staring at him.
Jiang Zhe thought there was something on his face, but when he touched it, he felt nothing, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yu smiled faintly and said, "Jiang Zhe, has anyone ever told you that you look handsome when you work?"
Jiang Zhe didn't expect her to praise him, and was a little surprised. Then he said, "No."
Then he added: "You look very beautiful today, too."
Jiang Yu chuckled, then took her book and continued reading. After reading for a while, she suddenly had an idea: "I have an idea of what kind of store I want to open?"
Jiang Zhe looked at her.
Jiang Yu glanced at his computer, which was on, and asked, "If I tell you now, it won't affect your work, right?"
Jiang Zhe listened to her carefully and said, "It doesn't matter. The work I have on hand is not urgent."
He closed his computer.
Jiang Yu also closed the book and said, "I want to open a coffee shop. After the Chinese New Year, I will learn how to make coffee. What do you think? When I was working, I wanted to live like this. When I had nothing to do, I would drink coffee while looking at the scenery in the garden."
Jiang Zhe had no opinion.
"Can."
"I just happened to have a cold these days, let's go see if there are any suitable stores?"
Jiang Zhe naturally disagreed: "You have a cold. The most important thing now is to have a good rest."
Now that Jiang Yu had an idea in her mind, she was eager to do it. Jiang Zhe asked her to rest, but she was not happy. She said, "When you have time, let's go out together. I'll put on some more clothes. There's heating in the car, so it won't be cold when we get inside. We can go around and see if there's any suitable house. I'll just be idle at home anyway."
Jiang Yu immediately went over and hugged his arm, her eyes sparkling: "Jiang Zhe, thank you."
Jiang Zhe looked into her bright eyes and said, "Actually, I prefer you to call me husband."
Jiang Yu usually spoke fluently when she was joking in front of her mother, but now that Jiang Zhe asked her to call him that, she felt a little bit unable to do so in front of him.
After hesitating for a long time, she said, "I can't shout."
Jiang Zhe didn't mind. He moved slightly closer and pressed his lips against hers.
Then, just when the atmosphere was so gentle and beautiful, so beautiful that Jiang Yu wanted to deepen the kiss with him, her nose started to run again.
She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She ran away to get a tissue and wiped the snot from the side of her nose. She smiled a little embarrassedly: "Well, it wasn't intentional."
Jiang Zhe was also very good-tempered: "I know."
"So, shall we go out this afternoon?"
Jiang Zhe was a little helpless about her impulsive personality: "Tomorrow, wait until your cold is better tomorrow."
"Have another shot later."
Although it was an injection, in Jiang Yu's eyes, it was no different from medicine, and her face immediately fell: "Okay."
The next morning, Jiang Yu's cold felt much better, and Jiang Zhe drove her out.
It has not snowed in the past two days and the snow outside is melting. Although Jiang Yu is wearing very thick clothes, she still feels cold.
She didn't understand: "I'm wearing so much, why am I still feeling cold?"
Jiang Zhe knew this was the case, so he took out his coat and put it on her, saying helplessly, "You already have a cold, and the snow has been melting these past two days, so of course you feel cold. I just told you to put on more clothes, but you didn't listen to me."
Jiang Yu stuck out her tongue at him.
Jiang Zhe shook his head and drove towards the city.
After walking around the pedestrian street, although there were many shops for rent there, Jiang Yu was still a little dissatisfied. She described to Jiang Zhe: "I want one, preferably one with a yard."
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Zhe who was driving next to her and said, "Can you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Zhe nodded, parked the car on the side of the road, and then made a phone call. After a while, he said, "There seems to be a place next to our company that suits your requirements. It used to be a hotel, but it was recently transferred."
Jiang Yu felt a little uncomfortable when she heard that they were near their company: "Near your company, isn't it a bit too close? What if someone from your company saw us? How embarrassing it would be."
Jiang Zhe said: "If it happens to suit your requirements, it doesn't matter."
Jiang Yu was a little worried: "I'm afraid of embarrassment."
Jiang Zhe didn't expect Jiang Yu to be so thin-skinned at this time. He said in a tone of voice: "Making money is making money, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. You can go and see if the store is suitable first, and then make a decision."
"Okay, let's go take a look first."
When they arrived, a young man was waiting for them at the door. Jiang Yu didn't know him. When she heard him calling her "the boss's wife", she realized that he was a colleague of Jiang Zhe's company named Xiao He.
A young boy looked at them, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and explained, "This is my aunt's store. Her child is in junior high school, so she wants to move to my uncle's place. You guys sit down first, she will be here soon."
Jiang Yu had no mood to sit still. She looked around and became more and more satisfied. This yard was perfect for growing flowers. She could drink coffee and eat desserts on the terrace. She was very satisfied.
Xiao He's aunt came over soon. When she heard that they were planning to open a coffee shop, she took them inside and took a look at the terrace above. After that, Jiang Zhe followed them and kept a distance from them and asked, "How is it? Do you like it?"
Jiang Yu hesitated a little: "I like this place very much, but I need to think about it."
Xiao He's aunt was very cheerful and said with a smile, "Sure, give me your answer when you've made up your mind."
"OK."
After saying goodbye to them, they went back. On the way back, Jiang Yu was silent for half of the journey before she said to Jiang Zhe, "I am quite satisfied with the store there, but if she sells it, we can't use the equipment there. We need new ones, and I think the rent is a bit expensive."
The store belongs to Xiao He's aunt. She has already given them a discount because they are Xiao He's colleagues, but Jiang Yu still thinks it is a bit expensive.
Jiang Zhe counseled her, "The rent in other places is not cheap either, and there are not places that big. I think you can consider it. You don't have to worry about the money."
Jiang Yu: "It's not just about the money. I'm worried that I'll lose money. Then..."
Jiang Zhe said: "There is no such thing as a sure thing in business. I am willing to support you, so don't worry about failure."
"Besides, I have a selfish motive." Jiang Zhe said after thinking carefully.
Jiang Yu didn't expect that he also had an idea, so she asked, "What do you think?"
Jiang Zhe held the steering wheel for a while before he said, "Wei Cheng wants to expand the company. I may have to come to work more often in the future. If you stay closer to me, I can come to see you when I am free. Moreover, I can also see here from the upper floor of the company."
Jiang Yu's breathing stagnated, and she said, "Then I can't refuse."
Jiang Zhe: "No, if you don't like it here, we can look for something else. This is just my selfish desire, but it's your own business, you decide for yourself."
Jiang Yu said with regret: "But I think this place is pretty good. Since you trust me so much, then choose this place."
Jiang Zhe's throat rolled: "Okay."
After a few days, Jiang Yu's cold was completely cured, and Jiang Zhe's promise to take her to see the ice lanterns was also put on the agenda. Thinking of leaving the baby to go out to play, Jiang Yu felt a little guilty. When packing her things, she was still a little reluctant and asked her mother: "Mom, is it not good for the two of us to go out to play secretly?"
Jiang Yu and Jiang Zhe had a cold relationship for a while after they had their child. It was not easy for them to have a good relationship recently. Jiang's mother naturally hoped that the two children would have a chance to develop a relationship. Having a child is indeed a challenge to the relationship between husband and wife. When she saw her daughter's hesitation, she immediately became dissatisfied and said, "Your father, her mother, and the aunt are here. What are you worried about? Are you afraid that we can't take good care of her? Really, we have more experience in raising children than you do. I'm glad that you're not at home and don't cause any trouble."
Jiang Zhe also put a lot of effort into raising the child, so the one her mother was talking about as causing trouble could only be herself.
Jiang Yu felt that she was being implicated, and said a little dissatisfiedly: "Mom, the way you act makes me feel that I am not the child's biological mother, but you are."
Zhu Zhi glared at her: "You know what the relationship between generations is? Your mother now looks at your daughter more fondly than you do."
Jiang Yu was hurt. When she went out, she saw her father. She looked for her father to seek justice. Her father patted her head lovingly and said, "Your mother is right."
Jiang Yu: ...
She then went to find Jiang Zhe again, and Jiang Zhe also touched her head. Jiang Yu's eyes immediately showed vigilance, and she asked, "You don't think what my parents said makes sense, do you?"
Jiang Zhe whispered, "No, since they are so willing to take us, let's play for a few more days."
Jiang Yu nodded and said provocatively, "Yes, let's play for a few more days before coming back."
Her mother was unmoved by the talk and was so happy holding her granddaughter: "Sure, it's okay if you don't come back for the New Year. We will take your daughter with us for the New Year."
Jiang Yu was tired: "There is really no love left."
