Not giving Wang Wenfang a chance to continue to lose, Ji Wanqing took her arm affectionately, "Auntie Wang, I haven't seen Sister Rongrong for a long time. How is she now?"
"Sister Rongrong is two years older than you. She should be married, right?" Without waiting for her answer, Ji Wanqing said shyly, "You and your love have finally come to Wendong City. If Aunt Wang and Sister Rongrong are free, you can treat us to a gathering at the state-owned hotel, right?"
"Your lover is here too? He's the childhood sweetheart that Mr. Yu arranged for you. Didn't you dislike arranged marriages? Why did you marry him?" Wang Wenfang really spared no effort, and every sentence she said contained a hint of provocation.
"He's here on a business trip and is busy now." Ji Wanqing pursed her lips and smiled, looking shy, "Your grandpa is really something. If he had told you earlier that your fiancé is a 1-meter-tall, handsome, and only 15-year-old young deputy head, how could you reject him?"
"What? Deputy, deputy leader?"
"Yes." Ji Wanqing looked like she was nourished by love, and held out her white and delicate jade fingers as evidence, "My love has a good appearance and a good personality. He doesn't do any housework at home except cooking. He always said that my grandfather gave me to him, so he has the responsibility to make me happy for the rest of my life."
Ji Wanqing generally doesn't like to show off his affection for his boyfriend.
But when it comes to someone like Wang Wenfang, who is vicious and jealous, it would be fun only if the knife is stabbed into her heart.
As expected, Aunt Wang's face couldn't help but twist, like a rat in a gutter, with a dark light flashing in her mung eyes.
Wang Wenfang's family background, grades, work, and marriage are not as good as Yu Jing, who was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Later, the Yu family fell into decline, and she finally thought she could surpass her. Who knew that Mr. Yu was a man with a lot of things, and the family still maintained a high standard of living, which made her hate him so much that she wanted to.
Later, Yu Jing died. There was no point in competing again even if she won. Her jealousy was directed at their daughters.
One has a dead mother and no father who loves her, while the other has both parents alive and brothers to support her. Wang Wenfang feels that her daughter will definitely surpass Yu Jing's daughter in this life, and she finally feels that she has surpassed her.
However, she didn't expect that after two years, Yu Jing's daughter would come back with wealth and wealth, which severely shattered her delusion.
Does it mean that my family will never be as good as the Yu family in my entire life?
Ji Wanqing was very satisfied with the other party's jealous and defeated expression. He said a few more irrelevant words without leaving any trace, and then revealed his sympathy for their family in a subtle way. This set of smooth little tricks made Aunt Wang unable to keep up her fake smile.
The time is almost right. I guess Wang Wenfang will feel like she's been stabbed with needles and won't be able to sleep well for half a month.
Ji Wanqing raised her wrist in a pretentious manner and checked the time on her watch. "Oh, my lover is coming to pick me up. Aunt Wang, let's talk next time."
After saying this, he didn't even look back and ran away.
Just kidding, inviting her to dinner was just a casual thing. Even if she had more money than she could spend, she wouldn't spend it on someone like this.
After packing up the historical relics, Ji Wanqing was in a good mood. He took the tickets he had robbed in the morning and went to the Friendship Store to spend some money, and then returned to the guesthouse.
After strolling around Wendong City for two days, she found that the intelligence network of the gangsters in Wendong City was obviously more complete. Except for the first day, she never met any foolish people who came to commit crimes.
It was not until the third day, when Jiang Che took half a day off after finishing his official business, that the couple had time to go to the Yu family's hometown to pay tribute and sweep the graves.
Cars are not uncommon in the urban areas of big cities. Two people dressed in black were driving gradually from the urban area to the suburbs.
The Yu family is considered a large family in Wendong, but the family was wiped out in the war, and now no one knows how many members are still alive and where they are.
The graves of Yu Weian and Yu Jing are located near the Yu family ancestral tomb, a blessed place with mountains behind and water in front.
The two worked together to remove the weeds around the cemetery, and used stream water to wipe the tombstones and tomb platforms clean before lighting the incense candles for the two elders again.
"Mom, Grandpa, this is your husband Jiang Che. You are living a good life now, don't worry."
Jiang Che knelt on the ground and kowtowed to them, "Mom, Grandpa, please rest assured and leave Qingqing to me. I will treat her well for the rest of her life."
Meeting elders is a very important and serious matter, especially those whom Ji Wanqing calls his relatives, and they are lying here.
The two of them completed the entire process carefully and properly, and then found a kind-looking fellow villager nearby and gave him some money to help look after the child for a while.
He also left his number and asked him to call the military factory if he had any questions before returning to the city.
They had a simple lunch at the state-owned hotel at noon. Jiang Che was a little curious about how she got the food coupons from Wendong City. Ji Wanqing remained calm and told him that she asked the neighbors for money in exchange when she went home to pack up the tablets.
However, Jiang Che always believed what she said, so he didn't ask any more questions. He ordered a few dishes that Ji Wanqing liked, and the two of them ate and chatted.
"When are we going back?" Ji Wanqing asked.
"It's two o'clock in the afternoon. It's just right for us to go there after dinner."
"Then I'll buy some steamed buns as dry food on the road. I've just used up all my tickets."
"I'll do whatever you say."
Ji Wanqing whispered to Jiang Che that her grandfather had left her two pieces of land and a courtyard house in Beijing. "Will grandpa and mom and dad have any objections if we don't live at home during the New Year?"
Jiang Che shook his head. "How could that be? In previous years, I could only sleep in the living room when I went home. This year, I wanted to ask my mom and let my nephews and my eldest brother and his wife squeeze in."
It turned out that Jiang Che and his brother Jiang Tao were not at home all year round, and their rooms were allocated to their nephews and nieces.
Jiang Tao brought his wife and children back to celebrate the New Year, so naturally he couldn't sleep in the living room, so Jiang Che always slept in the living room.
After hearing this, Ji Wanqing frowned slightly.
It seems that this frail eldest brother of the Jiang family means a lot to Jiang's mother.
A son whom you see once a year is not as good as a grandson whom you see every day.
Ji Wanqing mentioned the address on the title deed. Coincidentally, it was just across an alley from the Jiang family, no more than five minutes’ walk away! It was so close!
She thought that her grandfather was analyzing the situation from a business perspective and wanted to set up a family settlement in the capital.
I didn't expect that everything from beginning to end was prepared for my granddaughter's future. I wanted her to have her own home after she gets married, and that the home should be neither too far nor too close to her husband's family so that they could take care of each other without being too close.
Jiang Che noticed his wife's sadness and nostalgia, and gently held her hand, "Grandpa has done so much for us, as long as you are happy, it won't be a waste."
"Um."
In fact, after experiencing the past life, Ji Wanqing is a somewhat cold-hearted person. At least she will not take the initiative to open her heart to her husband and reveal her weakness.
But it is hard not to be moved by the careful planning of the deceased elders during their lifetime, who showed her love little by little like a trickle of water in the long river of time!
"By the way, the business trip allowance is so high, why did your superiors assign you to go on a business trip?" Ji Wanqing changed the subject, not wanting to bring up the hurtful matter again.
Logically speaking, escorting is the easiest job among all the overseas assignments, so it is not the turn of Jiang Che, a new official, to take advantage of it.
