I finished drinking the bird's nest. It was still early. Seeing that Jiang Yunshu seemed to be hesitant to speak, I couldn't help but smile.
"Is there anything you want to tell me or ask me?"
Speaking of which, when it comes to being a daughter and a mother, she and I are probably starting out hand in hand.
It's inevitable that there's some strangeness and awkwardness, but I can truly feel her desire to give me the best.
Jiang Yunshu's eyes were filled with kindness as she spoke softly, "It's not a big deal. I just thought you'd move in sooner or later, so while it's still early, why don't you go upstairs and pick out a room? That way, Mom can decorate your bedroom according to your preferences in advance."
I felt a surge of emotion I had never felt before, and I smiled and said, "No need to choose, I'll listen to you."
"real?"
Jiang Yunshu was afraid that I would be embarrassed, "Don't be polite to me, I only have you as my daughter..."
“You’re welcome!”
I had no choice but to interrupt, sitting closer, hugging her arms, and said softly, "I just know that everything you arrange for me must be the best. If that's the case, I can rest assured and slack off."
Jiang Yunshu raised her eyebrows slightly, "That's right. How about this, Mommy will convert the study next to the master bedroom into your bedroom, so that we can be next to each other, okay?"
"OK!"
I responded quickly, laughing, "Then I'll just take away someone's love without hesitation?"
Maybe it's because I know that the person in front of me is my biological mother, the person with the deepest connection with me in this world, so I am honest and open with everything.
The reason why I agreed so quickly was simply because I wanted to be closer to her.
"Where did you take it? Isn't everything that belongs to mom yours?"
Seeing that I wasn't being reserved with her, she gradually relaxed and returned to business. "Is everything okay with Zhou Fang?"
"It should be fine."
"That's good."
Jiang Yunshu chuckled, "If he can't even solve this, he can't be my son-in-law, Jiang Yunshu."
"You're right!"
I agreed with a smile, "But, Mom, if you spend more time with him, you will definitely like him very much."
Jiang Yunshu, "Mom was planning to inspect it again, and you're already defending it?"
"No, he is a really good person."
"A very good person, how is he good?"
"Um……"
I thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "It seems that Shangdian is careless about everything, but once he puts his heart in someone, he will never let them down for the rest of his life."
"This... Mom has heard about it."
Jiang Yunshu smiled and said, "He's been waiting for you for more than 20 years, right?"
"yes."
More than 20 years.
I am only in my twenties now.
Jiang Yunshu touched my head and said, "You two can finally be together. Mom must be happy for you."
I raised my eyebrows slightly, "Of course you can, you can start to be happy in advance."
"Silly child."
Jiang Yunshu couldn't help laughing and changed the subject, "Sister Jing has checked on the Shen family's situation these days. Is Madam Shen still receiving treatment in the sanatorium?"
"right."
I nodded, feeling a little happy when I mentioned this. "Grandma will be able to be discharged from the hospital soon."
Jiang Yunshu asked, "How do you plan to resolve the matter with the Shen family?"
"Wait until grandma is discharged from the hospital."
I said, looking at Jiang Yunshu firmly, "However, if grandma wants me to take over the Shen family, I will not refuse."
"Mom doesn't want you to have anything to do with them."
"But grandma is very good to me."
I picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Shen Wenzhong, Su Wanyu, and Shen Xingyu, that family of three will not treat grandma well."
"Shen Xingyu, is that the daughter they later adopted?"
"Um."
I nodded. "Su Wanyu loves her very much, like her own daughter."
Jiang Yunshu frowned, "Is she two years younger than you?"
"How do you know?"
Hearing this answer, Jiang Yunshu's eyebrows curved slightly, and he spoke with some sympathy: "Shen Wenzhong is most likely raising a daughter for Su Wanyu's ex-lover."
“???”
I was caught off guard by a piece of melon and was startled. "What do you mean? Shen Xingyu is the daughter of Su Wanyu's old lover?"
"I guessed."
Jiang Yunshu laughed and explained to me, "Su Wanyu's first love was a gang leader in Jingcheng, someone named Sun Kai. Later, Su Kai got into trouble and was imprisoned, which is when Su Wanyu hooked up with Shen Wenzhong."
"Sun Kai got married shortly after his release. His wife died during childbirth. Not long after, he committed another crime, this time murdering someone with considerable connections. He fled, abandoning his one-month-old baby."
"I heard he fled abroad and there has been no news of him in all these years."
“…”
I was stunned. After a while, I said, "So, you suspect that Shen Xingyu is the child?"
"But why would she be so nice to the child her first love had with another woman?"
Given Su Wanyu's personality, she would probably want to kill the child.
Jiang Yunshu chuckled, "Do you know who Sun Kai killed for?"
I smacked my lips. "...For Su Wanyu?"
Jiang Yunshu didn't say anything, just gave me a look that said "guess".
I was immediately terrified.
The doorbell rang, the servant opened the door, and several people dressed casually rushed in carrying things.
"Don't think about it for now."
Jiang Yunshu glanced at the time and said proudly, "Get ready for makeup. My precious daughter will definitely be the most stunning tonight."
…
The celebration banquet was scheduled to be held at a six-star hotel in Jingcheng.
The banquet hall was magnificent and spacious, with bright lights and high standards, and the guests invited were all prominent figures.
At this point, guests began to arrive in twos and threes with invitations.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the banquet hall, Zhou Fang called me and told me that he was about to leave.
I hung up the phone with a smile, and Jiang Yunshu saw through it at a glance, "Is my future son-in-law done with his work?"
"mom!"
I said a little embarrassedly, "You just said you wanted to investigate further."
Jiang Yunshu chuckled, "If you're so satisfied, why should I investigate? I'll do whatever you say. Mom believes that the son-in-law you bring home will definitely be one in a million."
"Sister Yunshu, what do you mean by one in a million? What son-in-law?"
A refreshing female voice suddenly came from behind.
I turned around and saw Zhou Qing coming from the elevator with Jiang Yuheng in one hand and Zhou Zhou in the other. They were a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman.
They don't look like a divorced couple at all.
Jiang Yunshu was a little surprised to see Jiang Yuheng coming together. Before she could say anything, Zhou Zhou called out "Auntie" and then threw herself on me!
"Aunt, I miss you!"
"good."
The dress I wore today was ordered by Jiang Yunshu. It was a departure from my usual minimalist style and featured an oriental design incorporating elements of Chinese flowers and plants. The off-shoulder neckline was like a blooming flower, and the petals on the dress were made with the intangible cultural heritage of Suzhou embroidery, which was very exquisite.
At this time, I couldn't hold Zhou Zhou, but Zhou Zhou was obedient and just held my hand and stood beside me obediently.
Jiang Yuheng has a reserved and profound temperament. He wears a suit meticulously and buttoned his shirt to the top, looking elegant and... old-fashioned.
When he looked at Jiang Yunshu, his throat rolled, as if he was a little nervous. "Sister, I came here uninvited, but there are some things I need to tell you in person."
Without waiting for Jiang Yunshu to respond, he continued, ignoring the people around him, and spoke word by word, "You don't have to worry about getting me into trouble anymore. Now, I have the final say in the Jiang family, and I can protect you!"
I don’t know whether Jiang Yunshu will accept it, but my eyes welled up when I heard it.
Maybe it was because I knew that this person was my uncle and the person next to him was my mother, so I was easily moved by their family affection.
Jiang Yunshu tilted her head, her eyes red. She turned away as if trying to hold back tears, then stared at Jiang Yuheng and said unhappily, "When you were little, you would cry and ask me to change your diapers. Now you can protect me?"
“Puff——”
Zhou Qing almost choked on his saliva and was so happy that he couldn't help laughing.
Jiang Yuheng coughed lightly, but he didn't feel embarrassed about having his embarrassing story brought up. He just stared at Jiang Yunshu, "Sister, are you not angry with me anymore?"
I turned my gaze away from Jiang Yunshu, looked at Jiang Yuheng, and said with a smile, "Uncle, my mother has definitely never been angry with you."
Jiang Yuheng's eyebrows twitched, "What did you call me?"
Zhou Qing looked at his changing expression and couldn't help laughing again, "Okay, sister, Nanzhi, let's talk in the lounge. There are a lot of people coming and going here."
At this time, there were not many guests. Many who wanted to chat with Jiang Yunshu did not dare to interrupt when they saw Jiang Yuheng, a big Buddha, here.
We went straight into the lounge.
Zhou Qing told Jiang Yuheng about the relationship between Jiang Yunshu and me in a few words.
When Jiang Yuheng looked at me, the Jiang family's most powerful ruler, who always said what he meant, was almost laughing and crying. In the end, he just stuffed a black card in my hand and said, "Uncle didn't prepare any gifts for you. You can use this card as you like."
“…”
I looked at the card in my hand and was stunned.
Even though it's an antique...but he's quite good at giving gifts? Just this black card in my hand is enough to buy a set of Dabieye in Dongyun City.
Seeing Jiang Yunshu nod at me, I smiled and agreed, "Then... thank you, uncle?"
"Thank you for what?"
Jiang Yuheng cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "The Jiang family already has your mother and half of you, this is nothing. From now on, the Jiang family will be your foundation."
The atmosphere in the lounge was very harmonious.
Jiang Yuheng and Jiang Yunshu must have had a very good relationship in the past, but once they talked it out, that sense of distance disappeared without a trace.
“Knock knock—”
There was a sudden knock on the door.
Just as I was about to stand up, Jiang Yuheng motioned for me to sit down. He stood up, opened the door, and nodded slightly at the person outside. "Are you here?"
"Mr. Jiang,"
Zhou Fang's casual voice came through the half-open door. He didn't rush in, but just glanced at Zhou Qing from that angle, "Have you explained all the rumors about you to my sister?"
"That's explained clearly."
"Then it's 僱."
Zhou Fang seemed to have been up for two days and one night, and was extremely tired. He leaned against the door frame and said, "If you really want to remarry, you'd better treat her well. Otherwise, as her brother-in-law, I won't agree."
"Um."
Jiang Yuheng nodded and said suddenly, "You'd better be nice to my niece in the future, otherwise, as her uncle, I will not allow her to marry into your Zhou family, which is such a deep pit."
"?"
Zhou Fang frowned and twitched his lips, "Me? Marry your niece?"
