Fortunately, Jiang Niannian knew a little about it beforehand, so she obediently told her mother what was going on. Her brother was really something; he didn't tell her sooner, and she almost couldn't answer when suddenly asked that question.
…
They soon arrived at the main hall, where a graceful and beautiful woman, together with the butler beside her, arranged the fresh flowers placed on the table.
"Mom, we're back."
Upon hearing the sound, the beautiful woman immediately turned around and saw Jiang Niannian holding Wan Ge's hand, while Mu Jingnian stood behind them.
"You're back! Come and sit down. I just had Zhang Ma make some sweet soup."
At the same time, she put down the flowers and walked towards them, standing in front of Wan Ge.
"Hello, Auntie," Wan Ge greeted sweetly.
The beautiful woman smiled broadly: "You must be Wan Ge? You're so pretty, no wonder our Anian likes you."
"Thank you, Auntie. This is a gift I brought for you." After saying that, Wange handed the box she was carrying to her.
Since it's normal to receive gifts on one's birthday, Mrs. Gu didn't refuse: "Then thank you, Wan Ge."
After receiving the gifts, Madam Gu handed them to Zhang Ma, who was standing to the side. Jiang Niannian and Mu Jingnian also handed over the gifts they had prepared to Zhang Ma.
After doing this, Madam Gu took the two girls' hands and sat them down on the sofa.
"Has Yunshu not returned?" Jiang Niannian asked Madam Gu when she realized she had returned but did not see Gu Yunshu.
Madam Gu nodded: "Yunshu has just taken over the company and has a lot of things to do, so she will be back later. Your father said he was going to catch a big fish for me, and he went out this morning. He should be back soon."
"Why didn't he go yesterday? Why isn't he spending time with you today?" Jiang Niannian said with some dissatisfaction.
"Your dad's not here, and you're already making things up about him." A deep, mature male voice came from behind them.
Jiang Niannian turned around and saw a middle-aged man. She immediately went up to him and gave him a hug: "Dad, have you missed me?"
"Of course I want to see. My darling daughter seems to have become even more beautiful."
"Of course." Jiang Niannian smiled with satisfaction.
At this moment, Mr. Gu walked over to his wife and stretched out his hand to her: "Wife, come and see the big fish I caught for you."
"Why didn't you bring it in yourself?"
"I put it in the trunk, waiting for you to see it with me, that would be a real surprise."
"What's so interesting about a fish?" But unable to do anything about her husband, Madam Gu still took his hand and followed him out of the courtyard.
Wan Ge, Jiang Niannian, and Mu Jingnian naturally followed along.
Mrs. Gu stood in front of the car's trunk, which opened automatically.
Instead of fish, the trunk was filled with fresh flowers and a dazzling array of exquisite jewelry.
Mr. Gu chimed in, "Happy birthday, my wife. This is the twenty-first birthday I've spent with you, and there will be many more twenty-one to come."
Mrs. Gu's eyes were slightly red, and her voice was filled with undisguised joy: "So that's why you went fishing so early in the morning. It turns out you were going to surprise me. I'm so happy, my husband."
When she first married him, he had no idea what romance was. It was only after he fell in love with her that he began to slowly learn about it.
He always manages to surprise her unexpectedly, making her especially happy every day.
