Chapter 295 "While we are all here today, I don't mind revealing your true identity."
He looks a bit like Nie Can when he was a child.
Zhang Mingming only knew that Jiang Yi had been married, and didn't know that Jiang Yi was Lu Yunxiao's ex-wife. She looked at Xiao Guozi with warm eyes and took out a red envelope from her handbag, "Here, this is for you."
"Thank you, and wish you great prosperity." Little Fruit smiled sweetly.
Zhang Mingming's voice was very pleasant, "Good boy."
She stood up and looked at Jiang Yi and Nie Can.
"Oh, Mrs. Fu is here?" Nie Can asked lazily.
There is no warmth in his eyes.
Jiang Yi really wanted to pinch him on the back, but she held back.
"Hello." She said stiffly and respectfully when meeting Nie's mother's gaze.
I was thinking that Nie Can's mother is well maintained. Last night I heard Nie Can say that his mother started dating Nie's father when she was 19 years old, and gave birth to him when she was 20 years old. She is 47 years old now, but looks like 37.
She had an oval face, delicate features, and a slender figure. She was wearing a moon-white cheongsam, which made her look tall and well-proportioned. She had an elegant temperament and a little bit of pampering. She was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman Jiang Yi had ever seen.
Jiang Yi looked at Nie Can again. No wonder he was so handsome, his eyes and eyebrows resembled his father, and he also had the best qualities of his mother.
Zhang Mingming was already accustomed to Nie Can's attitude and was not angry.
Grandma Nie glanced at her grandson and said, "You are so unruly."
Zhang Mingming asked with a smile: "Why don't you introduce yourself?"
I just heard from Old Mrs. Nie that Jiang Yi is a remarried woman with a child.
She didn't look down on him because she was married for the second time.
This girl looked younger than expected, and her brightness revealed a sense of tolerance and peace, which was a very strange feeling.
"My wife, Jiang Yi." Nie Can was determined to be unruly to the end.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but hit him on the back. Nie Can glanced at her, "Did I say something wrong?" He interlocked his fingers with hers and raised his hand, "You've already put on the ring but you still don't admit it."
Jiang Yi glared at him.
Zhang Mingming's eyes fell on their faces. She felt both relieved and a little sad. She was relieved that her son had found someone he liked, but she felt sad that they hadn't told her they were engaged.
If Old Nie hadn't called, Nie Can might not have let her know.
But she had no right to be angry.
Over the years, she has been avoiding and ignoring him.
Her expression softened again, and she took out two red envelopes, handed one to Jiang Yi and one to Nie Can, and looked at him, "We're engaged, it's time to have sex."
Nie Can's lips curled slightly, with a twisted look, "Mrs. Fu never celebrated my birthday. Maybe she forgot. I'm twenty-seven this year."
Zhang Mingming curled his fingers slightly.
Jiang Yi quickly said, "Thank you." Is giving red envelopes a tradition in their family?
At this time, Nie Xinghua came.
Everyone was stunned.
Today, Old Nie was wearing a black Zhongshan suit, with broad shoulders and long legs. His hair was well-groomed. He had some gray hair on his temples before, but now it has all been dyed black.
The sharp and distinct facial features have lost their edges and corners over the years, gaining a more calm and restrained temperament.
Jiang Yi, who became his fan in later generations, brightened her eyes.
The next moment, she felt a pain in her shoulder. Nie Vinegar glanced at her, "More handsome than me?"
"Indeed." Jiang Yi said with a smile. Boss Nie narrowed his eyes in anger.
Old Mrs. Nie almost didn't recognize her son. "You've regained your youth?"
Nie Xinghua looked a little unnatural and glanced at Zhang Mingming, "You're here?"
"Yeah." Zhang Mingming's attitude suddenly became somewhat distant.
The atmosphere around seemed to be quiet for a moment.
It was Nie Xinghua who spoke first, "Go in."
As he entered the restaurant, his eyes never left his ex-wife's face.
The last time they met was after Nie Can ignored his advice and accepted a dangerous mission and was injured. He felt distressed, depressed, worried, and afraid of losing his son and almost collapsed, so he called her to come and see her son.
She came to accompany him through that chaotic day.
I never saw him again after that.
She hadn't changed much.
"What a coincidence, you guys are eating here too?"
Just as everyone walked into Haiyan Tower, a voice suddenly sounded outside.
Nie Xinghua and Zhang Mingming turned their heads first and met Chen Jue's smiling face.
Chen Jue walked over leisurely, "Xinghua, why didn't you tell me that Miss Zhang was here? After all, we knew each other before."
It's more than just acquaintance.
Back then, she and Zhang Mingming had both been in the art troupe of the Suicheng Military Region. To outsiders, they were like sisters. When Nie Xinghua and Zhang Mingming were in love, she often followed them around.
Zhang Mingming's eyes flashed with disgust as he glanced at Nie Xinghua.
The corners of his mouth curled up in mockery.
This look and action were exactly the same as her son's. Jiang Yi was stunned.
It turns out that Nie Can inherited his characteristics from his mother?
Mother Nie looks gentle on the surface, but she is actually a little naughty.
Nie Xinghua frowned slightly, but before he could speak, Old Lady Nie said, "I made an appointment with Miss Zhang today. I asked her to meet Xiao Can's fiancée."
What I mean is, it has nothing to do with you.
But Chen Jue was holding a lot of anger in her heart. She was about to explode, so she came over and pretended to meet him by chance. It would not be so easy for her to leave.
He smiled and said, "We are all old friends, Miss Zhang, you don't mind an extra pair of chopsticks, right?"
If it were an ordinary ex-wife, it would be difficult to refuse.
But this is Zhang Mingming.
Zhang Mingming smiled slightly, "I mind that pair of chopsticks. They have been there for more than 20 years. They have become spirits and are causing trouble now."
Her stubbornness hasn't changed over the years.
As for dealing with Chen Jue, she didn't need to be polite now.
Jiang Yi's eyes lit up when he looked at Ms. Zhang and he almost gave her a thumbs up.
No matter how thick-skinned Shen Jue was, his expression changed.
But she was also very capable. After a few seconds, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled again, "Okay, then I won't disturb your mother and son reunion. After all, it's not easy for you to reunite once. But before I leave, I want to tell you something. You don't know that Jiang Yi is Lu Yunxiao's ex-wife, right?"
Zhang Mingming was stunned for a moment.
Nie Xinghua had told her before about the feud between the Nie family and the Lu family. Not long after Xiaocan was born, Lu Yunxiao was also born. Lu Jianguo was still in the army, one rank lower than old Nie.
In other words, Jiang Yi is the ex-wife of Nie Can’s cousin?
Zhang Mingming glanced at Jiang Yi, which made her heart skip a beat. She thought he wouldn't dislike her, right?
But soon Zhang Mingming looked at Chen Jue again and laughed, "Then what do you want to say?"
This time it was Shen Jue's turn to be stunned.
She is not one to lose control easily.
If there is one person in this world who can easily make her lose control, it is Zhang Mingming.
The jealousy in Chen Jue's heart burst out, and he couldn't control it at all, "Your son married your brother's ex-wife, don't you feel disgusted?"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Nie's face changed.
Chen Jue knows the relationship between the Lu family and the Nie family?
Did Lao Shen or Nie Xinghua tell her?
But judging from Nie Xinghua's shocked expression, it wasn't him.
Nie Can smiled, still in that lazy look, but his eyes were like ice knives, "Chief Staff Officer Nie, do you have a spy around you?"
Nie Xinghua looked at Chen Jue, his eyes also tinged with frost, "What exactly are you going to do?"
Chen Jue's frequent misbehavior during this period was really beyond his expectations.
Chen Jue looked at him with a look in his eyes, feeling as if a needle pierced his heart. "What do you want to do when I ask you? Do you want to reconcile with your ex-wife? You are already old, aren't you ashamed?"
Look at what he is wearing today?
Chen Jue was extremely jealous.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Nie Xinghua's expression became even colder, "Old Xue, send Ms. Shen back."
"Chen Jue, stop causing trouble." Old Mrs. Nie also scolded.
Chen Jue covered his chest, "I am sabotaging? Yes, I am against Jiang Yi's marriage, but who am I doing this for? Isn't it for the Nie family, for Old Nie, and for Xiao Can? Xiao Can deserves better."
If you don’t know her, you might think she cares too much about her stepson.
"Really?" Zhang Mingming smiled, "Do you really care about Xiaocan?"
She has returned to the mainland to visit her relatives only a few times in recent years, but that doesn't mean she knows nothing.
For example, Chen Jue is childless.
For example, Nie Can seldom returned to Beicheng in recent years, and spent the New Year alone in Pengcheng.
For example, Shen Sini likes Nie Can and often goes to Nie Can's office, while Shen Jue wants to match his niece with Nie Can.
She knows all this.
And more than 20 years ago, she knew what kind of person Chen Jue was.
Is Chen Jue's starting point for Nie Can's happiness? I'm afraid it's the opposite.
"Chen Jue, do you still want to use the same tricks you used in the past on my son? Put away your dirty thoughts." Zhang Mingming's eyes were slightly cold, "While everyone is here today, I don't mind exposing your true face."
