"Patriarch, I'll go and call Elder You over right away."
Ji Kong turned and left.
Ji Mingjing called out to him, "Come back! I don't need you."
You Song was performing acupuncture on behalf of Shangguan Wu and was temporarily staying at the Ji family's residence; he was not the Ji family's private physician.
However, Ji Kong was worried and looked at him with concern: "Patriarch, your health is the most important thing."
Ji Mingjing walked into the study and ordered in a low voice, "Have them redo the project plan for me."
The Zeng family has big ambitions; he can test them tonight.
"Yes, Master."
Ji Kong knew he couldn't persuade him otherwise, so he could only do what he was told.
After leaving the study, he contacted the group's vice president, relayed Ji Mingjing's orders, and then called Rongrong.
If there is anyone who can persuade the head of the family, that person must be Miss Rongrong.
"Hello."
"Miss Rongrong, I have a favor to ask of you, it concerns the head of the family, is that alright?"
Rongrong's expression changed slightly on the other end of the phone, but she forced herself to remain calm: "What is it?"
Ji Kong said, "The patriarch has just recovered from his injuries, and the doctor said he cannot be agitated. However, he must have been upset while eating in the ancestral hall this morning, so I would like to ask you to persuade him."
"He might not answer my call," Rongrong said with a self-deprecating laugh.
"Miss Rongrong, you have to try things to know if they'll work, right?"
"I'll give it a try."
Rongrong hung up the phone, found Ji Mingjing's number, dialed it, and waited for him to answer.
Unfortunately, no one answered.
Rongrong thought for a moment and sent him a text message: "Take care of yourself. Only with good health can you have the opportunity to do what you want to do."
I sat and waited for five minutes, but the message seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the ocean.
Rongrong turned her phone volume up to the highest setting before putting it in her pocket, making sure she could hear any incoming messages, before heading to the front yard.
Hua Rong Ju now employs three waiters.
Two girls and one boy.
The girls are waitresses, and the boys are responsible for carrying and delivering goods.
Most of the business at the flower shop comes from referrals from regular customers, because even a novice can grow flowers that bloom continuously thanks to Rongrong's care.
Many people enjoy growing flowers, but unfortunately, everything they try to grow dies.
But under Rongrong's guidance, I can see everything I grow bloom. The moment the flowers bloom, it's as if all the gloom instantly disappears, and my mood is easily healed. That sense of accomplishment is something that even shopping can't compare to.
Over time, many customers have come to Hua Rong Ju to learn how to grow flowers or to have afternoon tea.
Two more regular customers came today.
They got along very well with Rongrong.
I know Rongrong has a boyfriend.
Although I don't know him, I can tell from his demeanor that he is no ordinary person.
They hadn't seen him come to Hua Rong Ju for several days, so they asked him about it that day.
Rongrong just smiled and said, "We broke up."
Ji Mingjing doesn't even reply to her messages, and the two of them won't have any contact in the future, so it's okay for her to say that.
Neither of them expected that she would break up with him.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
"I know."
Rongrong interrupted her apology: "It's all over now."
She thought it was just a minor incident, but unexpectedly, her aunts or grandmothers started introducing her to potential partners.
Rongrong was both amused and exasperated. But there was no one else left; besides him, there was no room for anyone else.
???
On the day Yan Yirou returned to her parents' home, she got up early on purpose, partly because Gu Chenye only took her once that night and didn't do anything inappropriate.
Upon returning to the Yan family home, Yan Yirou and Gu Chenye first went to the old house.
Both the eldest and second branches of the Yan family live in the old house.
Yan Yixuan stood in the corner, looking at Yan Yirou with eyes full of jealousy.
Zeng Chengxian noticed immediately that her gaze was off and subtly stepped in front of her.
Zeng Chengxian, Yan Yixuan's fiancé, also came to the Yan family today.
Before marrying into the Yan family, Zeng Chengxian only wanted to keep a low profile, but Yan Yixuan walked out from behind him and was still glaring at Yan Yirou.
Yan Yirou seemed to sense something, turned her head to look, but only glanced at it before looking away, as if it were something she had expected.
But Yan Yixuan felt that she didn't take her seriously.
Yan Yixuan suddenly interjected, "Where are you planning to go for your honeymoon, sister?"
Yan Yirou casually named a city: "Xizhou City".
To everyone's surprise, Yan Yixuan reacted strongly: "You're going to Xizhou City? What for?"
Xizhou City is Zeng family territory. If Yan Yirou is going there, she should be going to Changteng City, right? Why would she go to Xizhou City? Could she have some ulterior motive?
As Yan Yixuan thought this, a look of doubt appeared on her face.
Although Zeng Chengxian thought the same thing, he didn't show it at all.
Yan Yirou felt speechless.
Now that she's married, there's no need to put up with her: "My mom didn't care where I went for my honeymoon, are you some kind of Pacific police officer, meddling in my affairs?"
Yan Yixuan was stunned for a moment.
In the past, Yan Yirou always treated her grandmother with a "make a big deal out of a small deal" attitude, making it seem like she was very filial.
Sure enough, she was faking it all!
Yan Yixuan deliberately said, "My fiancé is from Xizhou, so I just asked you one more question. Why are you so angry? Do you have something to hide?"
Zeng Chengxian immediately spoke up: "If my elder sister and brother-in-law go to Xizhou City, please make sure that your younger brother fulfills his duty as a host."
You're the eldest sister! Your whole family are all eldest sisters!
Yan Yirou frowned; she didn't want to go at all now.
The question is, how do I refuse?
Madam Yan said with a smile, "Yes, Ah Xian's home is in Xizhou City. Rou Rou, when you go there, remember to visit Ah Xian's elders, otherwise it will seem very impolite of our Yan family."
