Uncle Zhang does not favor boys over girls and is quite nice to Aunt Fan. He feels sorry for her contribution to the family, but he handles the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law very poorly.
He Chi built a wine cabinet at home, which contains his collection of red wine.
Zhang Qiao and Aunt Fan both liked to drink red wine. Jiang Yining casually took out a bottle from the wine cabinet. She didn't know much about red wine, so she asked Zhang Qiao, "Is this bottle okay?"
After Zhang Qiao saw the red wine in Jiang Yining's hand, she didn't know what to say for a moment. She opened her mouth and hesitated before saying, "Ningning, how about we drink juice?"
"What's wrong? Is this wine bad?"
Zhang Qiao said, "The wine is top-notch. Why don't you ask He Chi first?"
Jiang Yining took a photo and sent it to He Chi, then asked, "Can I open this bottle of red wine? I want to open it for them."
He Chi had just come out of the company and was about to go to Old Mrs. He's place. After he fastened his seat belt, he saw the message from Jiang Yining.
He replied: [Of course, you are the mistress of the house, and you are in charge of everything in the house.]
He Chi put down his phone, but only for a second before he picked it up again and added: [Including me.]
Seeing her shy look, Zhang Qiao stood up, glanced at her, and said in a changing tone, "Including me~"
"Oh, I thought He Chi was a rough and straight guy, but I didn't expect him to be quite capable, wow."
Jiang Yining almost blushed at what she said, and she put her phone away without showing it to Zhang Qiao.
He Chi waited in the car for a few minutes, but there was no reply from Jiang Yining.
He Chi almost doubted his life.
Does Jiang Yining not like him talking like this?
Another minute passed before Jiang Yining replied to his message.
It's an emoticon pack that shows someone nodding and saying "Hmm~".
He Chi suddenly grinned. When he thought of Jiang Yining making this little expression, he thought his wife was quite cute.
He replied: [I just got off work and was going to my grandma’s house.]
Jiang Yining quickly replied: [We are ready to eat, please drive slowly and be careful.]
He Chi: [Okay, you guys eat first.]
After Jiang Yining finished replying, Zhang Qiao asked, "Are you sure you want to open this bottle?"
"The average price of Leroy Musigny is 300,000. The bottle you picked up might cost 600,000 or 700,000."
Jiang Yining: “…”
She finally understood why Zhang Qiao had that expression.
Jiang Yining went to the wine cabinet again and saw several bottles of the same red wine. She looked for the bottle opener and said, "There's more in the wine cabinet. He Chi said it's ready to drink. Let's drink it."
To be honest, Zhang Qiao couldn't even imagine what a bottle of red wine that cost six or seven hundred thousand yuan would taste like.
Jiang Yining brought over three high-heeled glasses and a decanter, they poured the wine, and Fan Peihua also came back.
Zhang Qiao handed her one of the cups and said, "Mom, try it."
Fan Peihua took a sip and said, "This wine is really good. Ningning, where did you buy it? I want to buy a bottle too."
Zhang Qiao smiled and said, "Just buy one bottle. If you like drinking, drink more tonight."
She savored it carefully and said with emotion, "The taste of money."
When Jiang Yining lived in Zhang Qiao's house, she would occasionally have a drink with her, but she had a poor alcohol tolerance and she was still taking medicine, so she didn't drink. She poured herself a glass of juice squeezed by Aunt Fan.
Fan Peihua went home after dinner.
Jiang Yining and Zhang Qiao sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Across the river was Lincheng's CBD. The night was dark, but the lights over there were bright, describing the prosperity of Lincheng.
Since there was no one else here, Zhang Qiao didn't ask politely, "Do you and He Chi sleep in separate rooms?"
Jiang Yining hummed, "Give each other some time to adjust, but we slept together last night." This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
