Jiang Yue suddenly wanted to eat roast duck, so Gu Ye drove to an old Beijing restaurant. There were quite a lot of people buying roast duck, so they had to queue.
"Let's go together!" Jiang Yue took Ningning and Gu Ye to queue up.
Gu Ye held Ningning in his arms and used his tall body to protect Jiang Yue in his arms to prevent the cold wind from blowing on her.
Ningning was wearing a small fur hat and a scarf around her neck, with only a pair of eyes showing. The family of three was chatting and laughing, and soon it was their turn in the queue.
Gu Ye bought a whole roast duck. The chef sliced it, separated the duck meat and duck rack, and wrapped them in oil paper.
After buying the roast duck, the family of three walked towards the parking lot.
Just as she turned the corner, Jiang Yue saw Cao Qian and Shu Linlang again. The two of them started arguing about something and started blaming each other while standing on the street.
"Cao Qian, do you have any shame? It was you who dragged me to the department store to put on makeup. I said I didn't want to, but you insisted on dragging me along!"
"I don't care. We'll split the twenty-eight dollars in half. Give me fourteen dollars!" Shu Linlang held Cao Qian tightly and refused to let go.
Just now in the department store, she was so humiliated by the clerk's sarcasm and scolding that she had to take out all the money she had on her. In the end, she was still short of six dollars, so she asked Cao Qian to pay for it. Cao Qian refused to do so. In the end, Shu Linlang had no choice but to pawn the silver bracelet on her hand to the department store so that she could get away.
Now she was penniless and couldn't even take out five cents to take the bus home. Shu Linlang almost hated Cao Qian to death.
"Shu Linlang, you have no conscience when you say that! I took you to put on makeup, isn't it for your own good? You are almost thirty years old, look at your skin, it has become dark and yellow from being tanned in the countryside every day, without makeup, which man would be interested in you?"
"If I didn't sincerely want to help you, would I lick my face and rub that little bit of powder and rouge?"
Cao Qian was also furious, and turned to blame Shu Linlang, "You are so shameless. If I told them not to take the money, what else could they do to us?"
Seeing Cao Qian mocking her for being old and having dark skin, Shu Linlang was so angry that she almost cried. "You said you would help me, but I've been back for so many days and there's been no progress on my case! I don't care! Cao Qian, just give me the money back and I'll find a solution myself!"
Cao Qian's face changed when she heard what Shu Linlang said. She still had to rely on Shu Linlang to seduce Wei Ming tonight. If she had a falling out with Shu Linlang, what could she use to threaten Wei Ming? Then her room allocation would be even more impossible!
Thinking of this, Cao Qian immediately softened her tone and stepped forward to coax her: "Good Linlang, what can you think of? If you could think of a solution, you wouldn't have to go back to the capital to find connections, right!"
Without waiting for Shu Linlang to speak, Cao Qian quickly said, "Think about it, you're already at a big loss by marrying that country bumpkin. Look at the clothes you're wearing, they're all old, and that country bumpkin is reluctant to buy you a new one! You're the most beautiful girl in Beijing, how many male classmates chased you back then? The more this is the case, the more you should dress yourself up!"
"Wait till you divorce that peasant and come back to the capital. With your looks, you can marry a government official!"
Shu Linlang hesitated for a moment, and Cao Qian had already taken her arm, smiling and said, "Okay, okay, this powder and rouge looks so good on you. The New Year is coming soon, so just buy it as a New Year's gift to yourself!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yue and Gu Ye looked at each other, and without stopping, they crossed the road and walked towards the parking lot.
Shu Linlang turned her head out of habit and saw a man and a woman holding a little girl walking by. She looked at the woman's clothes and felt like she had seen them somewhere before, so she pulled Cao Qian and said, "Cao Qian, that woman looks like Gu Ye's wife!"
Cao Qian looked in the direction of Shu Linlang's finger, but she didn't take it seriously. "Did you see it wrong? It's covered so tightly, how can you tell who it is?"
Shu Linlang looked at the man next to the woman again. He was very tall and holding a child. She vaguely heard the child calling "Dad".
Maybe I really made a mistake!
"Okay, let's go! Let's go and see if Wei Ming has arrived!" Cao Qian was now determined to find Wei Ming to get things done. Although she had not given up on letting Shu Linlang seduce Gu Ye, she did not have Gu Ye's contact information. She asked Zhang Huadong and others for Gu Ye's phone number, but no one gave her the answer.
Now that the issue of dividing the house is imminent, Cao Qian can only start with Wei Ming first.
After getting in the car, Jiang Yue asked Gu Ye: "What on earth does Shu Linlang want to do? Why is she not going to turn hostile even after being tricked by Cao Qian like this?"
She was almost speechless after hearing the conversation between the two just now.
Gu Ye started the car and looked back. Ning Ning was sitting obediently in her seat. Some things were not convenient to say in front of Ning Ning, so Gu Ye said, "I'll tell you when I get home!"
After arriving home, it was just in time for dinner. Gu Ye gave the roast duck to the nanny to heat it up. Jiang Yue had a good appetite tonight and ate a lot.
After dinner, Rong Yin had to hold Jiang Yue's hand again and give her some instructions.
"Jiang Yue, don't worry about that batch of goods. I'll keep an eye on it for you and guarantee that it will be shipped to you before the delivery date!"
Rong Yin is now eager to do more to help Jiang Yue, so that her daughter-in-law doesn't have to worry and can focus on taking care of the baby.
"Thank you, mother-in-law!" Jiang Yue thanked her sweetly.
"Why be polite to your mother-in-law? We are all family!" The more Rong Yin looked at this daughter-in-law, the more she liked her.
While Rong Yin was chatting with Jiang Yue, Gu Ye was also called to the study by Gu Huaijing, and Gu Li was there too.
"You have made two achievements in a row this time, and the higher-ups are planning to promote you. However, considering that you have been promoted twice, your grandfather and I want you to keep your position unchanged for the time being!" Although Gu Huaijing and Gu Ye quarreled as soon as they met, he was still proud of his biological son after all, and his son was so outstanding.
