Grandma Fu was very happy and proudly raised her eyebrows at Grandpa Fu: "See? I told you to pick this one! Even Yuan'er said it was this one."
Grandpa Fu was very unhappy. Although he was old, he was still Grandma Fu's husband!
Does this old woman think he's getting old and his eyesight is failing?
Jiang Wanning stared at the chicken for a moment, and Fu Chenyuan winked at her.
Jiang Wanning thought Fu Chenyuan was too wicked.
She didn't touch it, of course if she had, she would have won.
This is too obvious. Jiang Wanning was too embarrassed to follow Fu Chenyuan's advice and trick the old lady.
When she drew her tiles, she drew a "One of Bamboo" tile and won by self-draw.
Grandma Fu realized what was happening and glared at Fu Chenyuan: "You brat!"
Fu Chenyuan still acted self-righteously: "Wanwan is just waiting for the One of Bamboo. Grandma, anyway, you can't win with the One of Bamboo, so it doesn't matter if it comes out."
Jiang Wanning felt a little embarrassed. Couldn't this person tone down his favoritism towards her in front of his family?
Unexpectedly, not only was Grandma Fu not angry, but she was overjoyed.
"Shuxiang, listen to this, your mistress is something else, she knows how to coax and pamper her wife."
After chatting and laughing for a while, it got late, so everyone went upstairs to rest.
Jiang Wanning had lived in this room in the old house for a while, but the feeling of living here today was completely different from before.
As soon as Jiang Wanning entered the room, Fu Chenyuan closed the door, then pinned her against the doorframe, looking down at Jiang Wanning's smiling face.
Are you happy?
"Yes, that's right. I really like your family."
Jiang Wanning recalled that Fu Chenyuan had said before that if she had met his family, she might marry him out of respect for them.
Fu Chenyuan's eyes seemed to hold a hint of jealousy: "But you're marrying me, not my family."
"Of course I know. But Mr. Fu, a good family can be a plus in a marriage!"
The Fu family is warm and welcoming, yet they are very tactful and never overstep boundaries or make anyone feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Wanning smiled playfully: "Honey, you're not jealous, are you?"
The last word rose in pitch, and a sly smile played in her eyes.
Fu Chenyuan lowered his head and kissed Jiang Wanning's lips directly.
He showed Jiang Wanning through his actions that he was jealous, and therefore, he desperately needed Mingyue's comfort.
...
The next day, Fu Chenyuan and Jiang Wanning returned to their parents' home.
Jiang Wanning was somewhat dumbfounded.
Isn't this gift too much and too expensive?
The trunk of one suitcase wasn't enough; the trunk of the accompanying bodyguard's car was also filled to the brim.
As if she could read Jiang Wanning's mind, Old Madam Fu stepped forward and said with a smile, "These are all material possessions. Your parents gave our family their most precious things, and we have no way to repay them."
Ye Shuxiang also came over, took Jiang Wanning's hand, and said very affectionately, "Yes, Xiaoning, please accept everything the elders have given you. Besides, these are for your parents. You are the most precious treasure. You should come home to stay often in the future."
Yesterday, after Jiang Wanning fell asleep, they discussed with Fu Chenyuan whether they should stay at the old house, as it would be more lively. However, Fu Chenyuan refused without even thinking about it.
Ye Shuxiang sulked, all she did was worry about disturbing their time together.
Living together in the old house, each with their own courtyard, how could that be considered a disturbance?
We can have dinner together tonight.
However, since her son was unwilling, she naturally did not force him.
She's a very open-minded mother.
Jiang Wanning agreed.
Ye Shuxiang raised an eyebrow at Fu Chenyuan triumphantly.
Back at the Jiang family home, Jiang Xinkai and Xia Rushan were already waiting for them, along with Xu Ying.
Xu Ying has been spending the last few days with Xia Rushan, and the two sisters' relationship has progressed rapidly, as if they had never been apart.
Jiang Wanning couldn't help but smile when she saw Xia Rushan.
She looks great and seems to be recovering well.
"Dad, Mom, Auntie."
Xu Ying smiled and agreed.
Fu Chenyuan stayed at the Jiang family's house for lunch, and afterwards he went to the company, as did Jiang Xinkai.
Jiang Xinkai's company is currently in its initial stage, but it is growing rapidly.
He used to work in this industry. Although he went bankrupt, he paid off all his debts and had a good reputation. His former partners were still willing to work with him.
Xu Ying brought up the plan to have Jiang Wanning paint.
“I’ve seen some of your work, Xiao Ning. You’re talented, and you work very hard. I believe you will become a famous painter. There’s not much I can teach you, but I will do my best. Starting tomorrow, you can come to my studio.”
"Auntie, if it's convenient, I'd like to go over this afternoon."
Jiang Wanning didn't want to waste any more time.
"Okay, then we'll leave after 2 o'clock."
Xia Rushan also reserved a room for Xu Ying. Xu Ying went to take a nap, while Xia Rushan and her daughter Jiang Wanning chatted together.
Xia Rushan could tell from the gifts brought by the Fu family that the Fu family valued Jiang Wanning very much, at least in terms of etiquette.
"Ningning, how are they to you? Shen Yuan is also very good to you, isn't he?"
"Yes, Mom, the Fu family is all very nice, and A-Yuan is very nice too. Mom, don't worry, I'll be fine. They're good to me, and I won't be arrogant. You never know what the future holds, but don't worry, even if I'm alone, I'll live a good life."
She survived the Zhao family's circumstances, so what else is there for her to fear?
Seeing the determined look in Jiang Wanning's eyes, Xia Rushan smiled as well.
She affectionately patted Jiang Wanning's head: "Ningning, you are really great. I will get better soon and then work hard with your dad again. Yes, I will not give up either. In the end, you can only rely on yourself. Just like your dad and I have been a loving couple for so many years, but if he changes his mind in the future, I will have a way out and will leave without hesitation, without begging or pleading."
Jiang Wanning nodded.
Will she and Fu Chenyuan ever meet like that? Will Fu Chenyuan change his mind?
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Wanning felt a little sad, but she quickly suppressed the feeling.
There's no need to speculate about things that haven't happened yet.
Living well in the present is taking responsibility for the future.
"Mom, don't worry, I know what to do. No one can bully me except myself. Not even A-Yuan. I won't let myself be wronged."
*
In the afternoon, Jiang Wanning and Xu Ying arrived at the studio.
I didn't expect the studio to be located in a bustling downtown area, a relatively prosperous commercial district.
The studio is large and fully equipped, including several multi-functional art studios, a gym, an indoor cinema, and a lounge.
Xu Ying showed Jiang Wanning around: "Sometimes I also need to watch movies to find inspiration. I also use the gym all the time. Because for us, who do mental work for long periods of time sitting, a healthy body is essential for our creative potential."
