Chapter 391 The Exquisite Courtyard
Jiang Ning never expected that the Jiang family would suddenly come to her door.
Shen Mo is a soldier.
In Jiang Haoan's view, soldiers were just roughnecks who were definitely not good at taking care of people.
But the moment he stepped into the courtyard, he realized that it was not quite what he had imagined.
The house, adorned with flowers, exudes exquisite charm in every detail.
When they passed by other houses on their way in, they saw that they were all ordinary tile-roofed houses, and most of them grew seasonal vegetables.
There's no one growing flowers at all.
Only his daughter's house has a lot of flowers planted in its yard.
Growing flowers is a delicate task that requires a lot of effort. You need to understand the characteristics and habits of the flowers you want to grow and use fertilizers to improve the quality of the soil.
Jiang Ning was previously reluctant to grow very precious flowers, and sometimes she was quite busy and didn't have much energy to take care of these delicate flowers.
She didn't have much energy, but she underestimated her man's energy.
Every day after training, Shen Mo would check on the growth of the flowers.
And then there's Zhiqi, this hardworking little bee. Whenever he sees something dirty in the house, he grabs a broom and sweeps the yard.
Shen Mo didn't know much about growing flowers at first, but he had a good memory and was willing to learn.
When Jiang Ning was taking care of these flowers, he would always be there to watch over her, perhaps handing her a pair of scissors or a small shovel.
As you watch and see more, you'll get the hang of it.
Seeing how capable her man was, Jiang Ning started to let herself go and give up.
While Shen Mo was working, she would obediently stand by and act as his cheerleader captain.
Shen Mo hadn't finished his training yet, and she couldn't very well turn the Jiang family away when they came to her door.
And they didn't seem like the type to leave after just a few words.
Jiang Ning had no choice but to bite the bullet and receive these strangers who were related to her by blood.
However, she didn't want to say much to the Jiang family. It was dinnertime, and knowing that Shen Mo was about to finish his training, she made an excuse to go to the kitchen.
Let them do as they please in the yard.
Jiang's mother, Wang Lihua, wanted to help in the kitchen, but Jiang Ning pushed her out.
But she was only looking to make amends, so she wasn't going to be kicked out so easily.
She picked up a green vegetable from the side and said, "Xiao Ning, let Mom help you pick the vegetables."
As he spoke, he squatted down on the ground and began to pick vegetables.
Since she was like this, Jiang Ning didn't feel comfortable kicking her out anymore, so she let her be.
Jiang's mother wanted to chat with Jiang Ning several times in the kitchen, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know what to say.
In the end, all they could do was silently pick vegetables.
And in the courtyard outside.
Jiang Haoan, however, was drawn to the two little ones in the yard.
Now, little Lezhi and Nanxing are already good at reading people's expressions. They could tell that their mother was not familiar with the person who appeared in front of them and claimed to be their 'grandfather'.
They only know 'grandparents', but who are their maternal grandparents?
The two little ones didn't react much to people their mother didn't like.
Lezhi frowned when she saw her 'grandfather' playing with her toys.
She said in a childish voice, "I don't like toys anymore."
Jiang Haoan was taken aback. He said, "If you don't like toys, what do you like? Grandpa will buy them for you."
Immediately afterwards, Lezhi ran into the house and took out a book.
Le knows, "I like reading."
Jiang Haoan looked at the book in her hand, examined it closely, and discovered that it was actually a medical book.
The contents are obscure and difficult to understand. How could a child who is only a few years old read such a book?
Shen Nanxing is a bit mischievous, but he's currently only interested in playing with his slingshot and isn't interested in the toys Jiang Haoan offered him.
Shen Mo knew his son played with slingshots, so he even set up a simple target at home.
Jiang Ting, on the other hand, was attracted by the flowers by the wall, and walked over to touch this one and that one.
They even stepped into the herb patch just to see the flowers inside.
Jiang Ning was preparing food in the kitchen when she heard a scream and quickly came out.
Then they saw Jiang Ting standing in the herb field, the branches of the herbs planted there bent over by her trampling.
Not far away, Nanxing was holding a slingshot and aiming it at Jiang Ting.
He threw pebbles at Jiang Ting one by one.
Although the boy wasn't interested in studying medicine, he had seen her carefully cultivating these herbs and teaching Yuezhi.
Know the importance of these herbs.
Although Nanxing's power is not great right now, Jiang Ting is pregnant after all.
She called out, "Nanxing, come here."
Just as Nanxing was about to launch another pebble, he heard his mother calling him. He immediately put away his slingshot and ran towards Jiang Ning.
He immediately hugged Jiang Ning's leg, raised his head and said, "Mom, I didn't flick her on purpose. This auntie stepped on your herbs and tried to pick flowers. You said herbs are for saving lives and shouldn't be stepped on, so I hit this auntie, but I didn't hit her hard."
Jiang Ning found it somewhat amusing; this kid even knew how to exonerate himself.
She had taught him before that his slingshot was not for hitting people.
Jiang Ning chuckled and flicked his forehead.
Jiang Ting ran over angrily, her face extremely grim.
She was furious and reached out to pinch Nanxing's face.
But Jiang Ning stopped her.
Jiang Ting was furious. Her face was full of anger as she said, "Jiang Ning, is this how you raise your child? Letting him shoot me with a slingshot?"
Jiang Ning said calmly, "You ruined the herbs I planted first."
Jiang Ting said, "It's just a few blades of grass. I stepped on it by accident."
Jiang Ning laughed, "Regardless of how many plants there are, this is my home. You stepped on my herb patch, shouldn't you apologize?"
Jiang Ting looked unwell; she had been hit by a stone and was now being asked to apologize.
She can't apologize!
At this moment, Mr. Jiang came over to smooth things over, saying, "We're all family, both sides are at fault. Let's just let this matter go and not hold a grudge."
Jiang Ning realized that the last part, "relentless pursuit," was directed at her.
Although Jiang Ting disliked the brat, her mood improved considerably when she heard her father clearly siding with her.
Jiang Ting hugged her father's arm and said, "Dad, I really didn't mean to step on the herbs. I just thought the flowers were pretty and wanted to take a look."
There were flowers outside the herb garden, but one flower inside was blooming particularly well, and she wanted to go in and pick it, which is why she stepped into the herb garden.
But before she could pick any flowers, she was hit by several stones.
Both are her own daughters, but Xiaoting clearly knows she was wrong after saying that. Jiang Haoan looked at Jiang Ning and said gently, "Xiao Ning, it's just some flowers and herbs. Sisters shouldn't be so petty about these things."
