Chapter 242 The Secret Was Accidentally Exposed
Jiang Zhizhi never expected that the wine and snacks she gave to Jiang Zhenhua would reappear at Shang Shiying's house in less than two hours.
What's even more awkward is that the snacks were sent out by Shang Shiying.
Whether Shang Shiying didn't notice or didn't care, since these gifts often went around in circles and then went home, she warmly urged Fang Hua to sit down, and then looked at Jiang Zhizhi: "Zhizhi, is it cold outside? I see you're not dressed warmly enough."
Jiang Zhizhi grinned and said, "I thought we were so close, so I didn't wear a scarf." Then she greeted Jiang Zhenhua and Song Wanying and called out to her parents.
Shang Shiying's expression froze for a moment, then she quickly pulled Jiang Zhizhi to sit down and asked Fang Hua, "Sister-in-law, why didn't Brother Zhou and Xiao Chuan come over?"
Fang Hua nodded to Jiang Zhenhua and Song Wanying before answering Shang Shiying's question: "He'll be a little later. He'll come directly from the office. Xiao Chuan wasn't feeling well, so we didn't let him leave."
Jiang Zhizhi sat down, and coincidentally, she sat opposite Sun Xiaoyue.
Sun Xiaoyue greeted Fang Hua gently, "Hello, Aunt Zhou."
Fang Hua pretended not to hear, looked around and asked Shang Shiying, "Where's Si Min? And where are Xiao Yao and the others?"
Shang Shiying arranged for the nanny to come and pour tea, while explaining to Fang Hua with a smile: "Si Min is upstairs. He just came down to say hello and then went back up. I'll go call him now. As for Xiao Yao and the others, I told them to go to their uncle's house. It's too noisy at home."
Fang Hua quickly stopped her, looking at Jiang Zhizhi: "Didn't Zhizhi just say she wanted to ask Si Min a question? Just let her go upstairs to find Si Min."
Shang Shiying thought it was a good idea. In the past, when Jiang Zhenhua and Song Wanying were busy, Jiang Zhizhi was like someone who had grown up in her home, and she was very familiar with her family.
Thinking of certain connections, she couldn't help but smile more broadly: "Yes, Si Min is upstairs. Zhi Zhi, you're familiar with my house, so go find her yourself."
Jiang Zhizhi was stunned for a moment, but then she realized that Fang Hua didn't want her to face Sun Xiaoyue. She smiled, stood up, greeted Da Ji, and went upstairs to find Li Simin.
He didn't even glance at Sun Xiaoyue from beginning to end.
Sun Xiaoyue was furious. She greeted Fang Hua, but he completely ignored her!
In her previous life, she even considered remarrying Li Simin, another legendary figure in the courtyard, but Fang Hua refused to let her go to Li Simin.
He even told her very seriously that remarrying was impossible.
How come when you get to Jiang Zhizhi's place, you can go upstairs to find Li Simin, and a man and a woman alone in a room together, does Fang Hua not mind?
Thinking it over, she stood up and looked at Fang Hua and Shang Shiying: "Auntie, Auntie, I'll go upstairs to find Brother Simin too. It's not appropriate for them to be alone in a room, especially since Zhizhi is already married..."
Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Zhenhua's expression darkened, and he looked up at Sun Xiaoyue with displeasure.
Song Wanying also frowned; Sun Xiaoyue's words were very inappropriate.
Shang Shiying and Fang Hua's expressions changed.
Fang Hua wasn't going to tolerate her. He said coldly, "Only people with a bad heart see everything as dirty. They only think others are the same kind of people they are."
Shang Shiying was also very dissatisfied. Jiang Zhizhi and Li Simin had a good relationship before, not to mention that they now had another layer of relationship.
She invited both families over to express her gratitude and strengthen their relationship.
Wait for the right opportunity to let Jiang Zhizhi be recognized as her ancestor.
Moreover, Shang Shiyi repeatedly instructed her not to disturb Jiang Zhizhi or be overly affectionate, as now was not the time for them to acknowledge each other, lest someone with ulterior motives use this to their advantage, ultimately harming both Jiang Zhizhi and Zhou Xiye.
Shang Shiying frowned and said sternly, "Si Min and Zhi Zhi grew up together since they were little, like brothers. I'd like to see who dares to talk nonsense outside, and I'll rip their tongues out."
At the same time, they were very dissatisfied with this fake daughter who was not presentable.
Why are Jiang Zhenhua and Song Wanying still brought out?
Sun Xiaoyue was speechless after being rebuked, and quickly explained weakly, "No, I didn't mean that..."
Jiang Zhenhua frowned and called out to Sun Xiaoyue, "Xiaoyue, sit down!"
Song Wanying quickly pulled Sun Xiaoyue down to sit, then stood up and apologized to Fang Hua and Shang Shiying: "I'm sorry, Xiaoyue meant well..."
Fang Hua sneered: "This kindness is for you, do you want it or not?"
Song Wanying's face paled, and she couldn't bring herself to say a few more words.
Shang Shiying held back, after all, she was hosting the dinner at home, and she couldn't let it end badly: "Alright, don't talk nonsense in the future, after all, my Si Min isn't married yet."
When the topic changed, Fang Hua gave her face: "What kind of person is Si Min looking for? I'll keep an eye out for her and help introduce someone."
Shang Shiying sighed: "I don't have any particular thoughts, as long as the woman doesn't mind my Si Min's body."
Fang Hua waved his hand: "Don't be afraid. My Zhizhi is studying medicine now, and she will definitely be able to cure Si Min in the future. You don't know, do you? Zhizhi got second place in the class in this exam."
As he spoke, his eyes shone with light: "He was only two points behind the first place. The main reason is that this kid is lazy. He didn't want to write more words on the political and ideological test."
Shang Shiying was somewhat surprised: "Really? Zhizhi is so amazing now? I always said that Zhizhi would definitely be a late bloomer. Look at those eyes, they're so clever."
Fang Hua smiled proudly: "That's right, I never knew outsiders could talk such nonsense."
As she spoke, she suddenly looked at Sun Xiaoyue, but asked Song Wanying, "Wanying, I remember your daughter is in the same class as Zhizhi. How did she do on the exam? What score did she get?"
As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of melon seeds from the coffee table, ate them, and watched Song Wanying.
Song Wanying's face turned awkward: "No, Xiaoyue is not feeling well and couldn't take the exam this time."
Fang Hua clicked his tongue and said, "Is it because you're not healthy, or because you don't know how? Let me tell you, if your foundation is weak, you need to work on it quickly, otherwise you'll only learn the basics of medicine in the future. If a student like that graduates and becomes a doctor, do you think you'd dare to ask her to treat you?"
"Also, you'll definitely have to find her a good hospital, right? What if we find out later that the doctor who doesn't know anything is the daughter of the Jiang family? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
His expression was particularly genuine: "Really, this isn't like other things where you can fake it. Being a doctor is no joke."
Song Wanying felt a tightness in her chest, unable to go down or come up.
He could only force a smile: "Sister-in-law is right, I'll arrange it for Xiaoyue as soon as I get back."
Sun Xiaoyue sat beside her, her nails digging into her flesh, clenching her back teeth to keep her expression from getting out of control.
Upstairs, Li Simin and Jiang Zhizhi were leaning on the second-floor railing, listening to the voices of Fang Hua and the others downstairs.
Jiang Zhizhi couldn't help but want to go downstairs to cheer Fang Hua on; this mother-in-law's fighting spirit was truly formidable.
Li Simin was somewhat curious: "This Sun Xiaoyue, she visited our research institute a couple of days ago. She even knows Researcher Tan. How come her grades are so bad?"
