Chapter 335: Have a Fat New Year
Is it a coincidence?
Li Rong had a crazy idea that Wan Wan did it on purpose, but she knew nothing about it, so how could she help her get revenge?
"Is that so? Then I'll help you find a doctor." Cheng Sile stood up and said to Ai Yuanyi before leaving, "I'll make a phone call and be back soon."
"Aunt Rong, Aunt Rong?"
Ai Yuanyi called out several times, but Li Rong didn't respond. She smiled and pulled Li Rong's hand, and Li Rong finally responded, "What's wrong?"
Ai Yuanyi asked her to sit down: "Don't just stand next to me, sit down and rest if you are tired."
Li Rong shook her head: "I can just stand."
"Aunt Rong is not a servant, nor an outsider. She is someone who treats me better than my mother. Without Aunt Rong, there would be no me. I have told you many times, don't be so polite to me."
Ai Yuanyi looked at Li Rong with admiration in his eyes, without the slight sense of distance he had with other people.
Li Rong's expression remained calm: "I'll be fine right here."
Ai Yuanyi could only sigh. She smiled and said, "Why am I not Aunt Rong's child? It must be very happy to be Aunt Rong's daughter."
Li Rong lowered her eyes. No, she was not happy.
She couldn't even protect her own children.
Ai Yuanyi and the others were arrogant and rarely said bad things about anyone. She talked to Li Rong about everything: "Aunt Rong, you just heard what Jiang Lian said. Do you think Jiang Wanwan is too much? How could she hit her mother?"
"After all, she was the one who gave birth to her."
"I have disliked Jiang Wanwan since I was a child. She didn't look like a good girl. I didn't expect that she would not even recognize her own mother when she grew up."
Li Rong's eyes flashed with displeasure, mixed with a hint of hatred: "Yuan Yi, don't talk about others behind their backs."
Wanwan is a very good person, no one is better than her daughter.
Ai Yuanyi didn't want Li Rong to be unhappy, so he shut up immediately.
Cheng Sile helped Jiang Lian find a doctor, and quickly ran back to continue talking about Jiang Jun with Ai Yuanyi.
Li Rong was distracted frequently. Was Wan Wan helping her... to get revenge?
She must have been overthinking it.
After the Laba Festival, it is New Year’s Eve in a blink of an eye.
Jiang Wanwan has to count the days she stays here on her fingers.
The day before New Year's Eve, Shen Xingjiang took her to the department store and bought her a red sweater, a black long skirt, and black leather boots. He also bought himself a dark red one. On New Year's Eve, they changed into new clothes. Jiang Wanwan had fair skin, and the red one did not make her look darker at all. Instead, it made her skin look more transparent.
She also wore a wide red headband, gold hoop earrings, a sweater with a long black skirt, and a black belt, which was fashionable and stylish.
This kind of dressing is popular in Hong Kong, and you can see similar styles walking on the streets.
After she changed her clothes, Shen Xingjiang hugged her from behind, his eyes burning: "Wan Wan is prettier than the girl in the picture magazine. I am very lucky to marry you home."
Even though they had done many intimate things before, Jiang Wanwan still blushed when she was praised.
"Your mouth was never this sweet before."
Jiang Wanwan blushed and pulled his hand away, turned around and hugged his neck, stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips hard. It was cool, like the temperature of the first snow. Jiang Wanwan wanted to taste it again, with desire in her eyes. Shen Xingjiang hugged her waist and brought her to him, kissing her deeply.
On the morning of New Year's Eve, some people were already setting off firecrackers, and the crackling sound was extremely lively.
Amid the sound of firecrackers, Jiang Wanwan was kissed until she was breathless. It took her a long time before she pushed Shen Xingjiang away: "Tonight."
"I'm going to go to Jiu Ye's house to do some work first."
We had already made an appointment to celebrate the New Year together at Jiu Ye's house. It would be boring to celebrate the New Year with just Jiu Ye and Ping Shan Ge. They don't often live in Beijing, so their home lacks some people. Going to Jiu Ye's house makes it lively and more humane.
Shen Xingjiang took her hand instead: “Let’s go.”
Qin Botang and Jiang Jun also got up early and waited outside. Qin Xiao also called out several times, asking Qin Botang to go to their place. Cheng Wenyuan and Cheng Hanzhang also asked them to go to the Cheng family. Neither Shen Xingjiang nor Qin Botang wanted to go. The Cheng family was rich, so they preferred to spend the New Year at the Su family.
When Master Su Jiu found out that the children did not go to Cheng's house but came to his house instead, he was so happy that his beard was about to stand on end. He had already prepared the ingredients for the New Year long ago.
When Jiang Wanwan and her friends went out, the alley was littered with broken firecrackers, snow was hanging on the persimmon tree, and two birds were pecking at the yellow persimmons together.
The Su family members had been sent back. Master Su Jiu cleaned the house yesterday. When he saw Jiang Wanwan and the others coming, he went out to greet them enthusiastically: "Come on, what are you carrying?"
Of course you can't come empty-handed when you visit someone's house to celebrate the New Year. When Jiang Wanwan and Shen Xingjiang went to the department store, they bought pork and New Year's biscuits and pastries, spending more than 30 yuan, as well as two bottles of white wine.
Jiang Wanwan: "I've already brought it here, can you still throw it away?"
Master Su Jiu was helpless and had no choice but to say, "Come in, come in."
In the morning, Master Su Jiu made dumplings with celery and pork stuffing and was about to wrap them. He put everything on the table. The dumpling stuffing was in an enamel basin and there were half-made dumpling skins on the panel, which he was about to wrap.
Jiang Wanwan washed her hands and helped make dumplings.
Shen Xingjiang put the things on the combination cabinet and went over to help.
Qin Botang and Jiang Jun ran to the black and white TV to study it, turned it on and found a channel to watch.
Su Pingshan came back from outside, holding a few candied haws in his hand: "Xiaoyuan, do you want to eat candied haws?"
"Your Ninth Master bought hawthorns a few days ago and made this especially for you with the syrup boiled with yellow rock sugar. I dug out the seeds from the candied haws and made it secretly. I put it on the roof and froze it. I didn't dare let the family see it."
Jiang Wanwan had just washed her hands, wiped them, and took the red candied haws.
Seven or eight candied haws are strung together, wrapped in crystal clear sugar coating. When two of them collide with each other, they make a crisp knocking sound. They are rosy and shiny, like red agate.
Jiang Wanwan was instantly greedy: "The candied haws made by Jiu Ye are even better than those made by my dad."
Su Pingshan brought in four sticks, Jiang Wanwan took two and gave one to Shen Xingjiang: "Try it too."
Afraid that Chen Xingjiang wouldn't eat it, Jiang Wanwan kept recommending it to him: "It's delicious, definitely not greasy, you'll regret it if you don't eat it."
How could Shen Xingjiang bear to refuse what she gave him? He took it and took a bite. His teeth bit through the hard sugar coating, which shattered. The sugar melted in his mouth. It was sweet on the outside and sour on the inside. The mixture of sweet and sour was very appetizing.
Shen Xingjiang took another bite: “It’s really not greasy.”
Jiang Jun gave the remaining two to Qin Botang to share. The four of them couldn't stop eating, taking a bite to the left and the right, and all they could hear was the crunching sound.
Master Su Jiu brought in a bowl of noodles from the kitchen, and after hearing what Shen Xingjiang said, he proudly introduced his skills in making candied haws.
"It must be delicious. From boiling the soup to measuring the sugar and coating the syrup, every step must be done accurately and without error. Only then will the candied haws taste good. You guys are all blessed to be able to eat the candied haws made by your Ninth Master."
Hearing his father bragging again, Su Pingshan shook his head helplessly and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, I found a buyer for the Peng family's jade."
