Chapter 150: Four years, finally waiting for this moment
Returning to Dihua Mansion again, Jiang Xu had already accepted the reality.
He Yanting took her to the cloakroom, where her clothes were hanging as they were, carefully protected with dust bags.
"Change clothes."
He had been unhappy with this wedding dress for a long time.
Jiang Xu picked up a haze blue knitted jacket at random, closed the door and changed.
After changing clothes and opening the door, He Yanting was slightly stunned when he saw her.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing that his expression was not right, Jiang Xu frowned and asked.
He Yanting's Adam's apple rolled slightly: "You were wearing this dress the day before you left."
Jiang Xu pursed her lips, pushed him away and walked out.
He Yanting picked up his wedding dress. Jiang Xu asked him what he was going to do with it, and he said, "Throw it away."
Jiang Xu's eyes widened: "Ninety thousand yuan is just thrown away like that?"
He Yanting said calmly, "I don't want to see it again."
After saying that, he turned and went downstairs, handed the wedding dress to the bodyguard, and ordered: "Throw it as far as you can. If it's not right, destroy it directly."
He paid for the wedding dress, so Jiang Xu had no opinion on how he dealt with it.
He turned around and looked at her: "Don't feel bad, I will buy you something better next time."
Jiang Xu's expression was very calm: "No need."
He Yanting's eyes darkened slightly, and he held her hand: "In another hour, Tuanbao will be out of school, let's go buy groceries."
Jiang Xu struggled for a while but couldn't break free, so she could only let him hold her hand.
It’s only a week, she thought, it will pass quickly.
This time He Yanting didn't call a driver, but drove himself, with Jiang Xu sitting in the passenger seat.
Like many ordinary couples, they went to the supermarket hand in hand, choosing ingredients and seasonings. Of course, because of their superior appearance, they attracted a lot of attention along the way.
After coming out of the supermarket, the temperature seemed to drop a few degrees.
Jiang Xu was wearing thin clothes, and her hands quickly became cold. He Yanting glanced at her, moved the shopping bags to one hand, and held her with the other.
He wasn't wearing much, but his palms were warm and soon warmed Jiang Xu's hands.
After returning home, He Yanting took off his coat and went into the kitchen to busy himself.
At this time, the door opened.
Aunt Lin picked up Tuanbao from school.
"Aunt Jiang?"
Seeing Jiang Xu sitting on the sofa, Tuanbao's originally calm face showed a look of surprise.
"Tuanbao."
Seeing his son, Jiang Xu felt happy but also a little guilty.
Aunt Lin greeted politely: "Miss Jiang."
Jiang Xu opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain why he was here.
He Yanting came out of the kitchen, his little finger hooked on his apron, and said to Jiang Xu, "My hands are dirty, please help me put it on."
Aunt Lin and Tuanbao immediately looked at Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu's face felt slightly hot.
He Yanting kept his hand outstretched, waiting for her.
She had no choice but to walk over and take the apron.
He Yanting bent down and lowered his head, and Jiang Xu put the apron around his neck. He then cooperated and turned around, allowing Jiang Xu to tie the belt around his waist.
"Thanks."
He Yanting turned around and leaned slightly towards her, and Jiang Xu quickly took a step back.
Tuanbao tilted his head, watching the scene, and asked Aunt Lin, "Didn't Dad always put on his apron by himself before? Why does he need someone to help him put it on today?"
When the two people over there heard these innocent childish words, their faces froze.
He Yanting glanced at Tuanbao and said, "Go wash your hands."
Aunt Lin had long noticed that Mr. He and Miss Jiang had a special relationship, but she didn't expect this little girl to ask such an embarrassing question.
"Young Master, let me take you to wash your hands."
Then I took him to the bathroom.
Jiang Xu walked over and said, "I'll take him there."
Aunt Lin looked at He Yanting. After all, this Miss Jiang was an outsider, and if she wanted to take care of the young master, she had to get Mr. He's consent.
He Yanting didn't look at her, but at Jiang Xu, and smiled and reminded her, "Use children's hand sanitizer and wash for more than fifteen seconds."
"I know." Jiang Xu glared at him.
After being criticized, He Yanting was not angry, but the smile on his face became even wider.
Looking at the smile on He Yanting's face, Aunt Lin opened her mouth and forgot to speak for a moment.
I have been here serving the young master for almost three years, and this is the first time I have seen Mr. He smile from the heart.
Most importantly, Mr. He never felt comfortable handing Tuanbao over to anyone, especially any young woman who wanted to get close to Tuanbao.
But he was so confident in letting Miss Jiang take care of the child.
Just as he was thinking about it, He Yanting said, "Auntie Lin, you will be given two days off. Your salary will be paid as usual. Go back and have a rest."
"ah?"
Aunt Lin was surprised, "Who will take care of that baby?"
He Yanting lowered his head and smiled slightly: "I'll take care of it, you just pack up now and go home."
Although Aunt Lin was full of doubts, she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Jiang Xu took Tuanbao to the bathroom, asked him to stand on a small stool, turned on the faucet, and put his soft little hands under the water to rinse.
"Aunt Jiang, can I ask you a question?"
Tuanbao looked up at her.
Jiang Xu practically held the child in his arms from behind, squeezed a pump of hand sanitizer, and while rubbing his little hands, he asked, "What's the problem?"
"Are you and my dad dating?"
Tuanbao's eyes were full of anticipation.
Jiang Xu paused, a little embarrassed: "No, we are just... um... ordinary friends."
"Oh, my friend."
Tuanbao was obviously disappointed and lowered his head silently.
Jiang Xu helped him wipe his hands clean and took him back to the restaurant. Tuan Bao looked around and asked, "Where's Aunt Lin?"
He Yanting was preparing the ingredients and said calmly, "She had something to do at home, so she went home."
Tuanbao said "Oh", ran upstairs, and brought down a bunch of toys and building blocks, "Aunt Jiang, let's play with the toys."
Jiang Xu walked over and sat on the ground to play with Tuanbao.
The room had floor heating on and the ground was very warm. Jiang Xu looked at Tuanbao and felt warm in her heart.
In the kitchen, He Yanting looked back at the two people, one big and one small, sitting on the floor studying their new toys, and his nose felt strangely sore.
After four years, I finally waited for this moment.
Jiang Xu and Tuanbao were playing with a newly opened puzzle. They became addicted to it, and as they were gritting their teeth to figure it out, a shadow fell over their heads.
The group baby opposite looked behind her and said, "Dad."
Jiang Xu subconsciously turned around, but unexpectedly He Yanting was bending over behind her. Their noses brushed against each other lightly, and their breaths fell on each other's faces.
She lowered her head quickly: "Is there something wrong?"
He Yanting said, "The meal is ready."
"oh."
Jiang Xu stood up and walked towards the restaurant.
Tuanbao tugged at He Yanting's pants and asked softly, "Dad, did you kiss Aunt Jiang just now?"
He Yanting curled his lips: "Almost."
Jiang Xu paused, turned around and glared at the father and son: "I heard everything."
Tuanbao immediately covered his mouth and made a zippering motion.
There was a sumptuous meal on the table. At a glance, Jiang Xu knew that He Yanting's cooking skills had improved a lot.
He Yanting helped her pull out a chair: "I've learned a lot of new dishes, try them and see if they suit your taste."
Jiang Xu sat down and picked up a dish at random and put it in his mouth.
Nodding: "Delicious."
I'm not being polite, it's really delicious.
Although she didn't want to admit it, after four years abroad, eating those bland white people's meals, she occasionally missed He Yanting's cooking skills.
He Yanting took out a children's bowl from the cupboard, picked up some food for Tuanbao, removed bones and fish bones, and cut large pieces of meat into small pieces.
Then he took out the saliva bag and tied it on Tuanbao with ease.
Tuanbao is very well behaved and eats by himself with a small spoon.
Looking at this scene, Jiang Xu was overwhelmed with emotions.
She has indeed been absent a lot in these four years, so it's no wonder that Tuanbao hates her mother.
"Not to your taste?"
He Yanting noticed that Jiang Xu stopped and asked cautiously.
"No."
Jiang Xu shook his head.
Next, He Yanting kept picking up food for the mother and son, and their bowls were always full.
After dinner, He Yanting was responsible for washing the dishes, and Jiang Xu cleaned up Tuanbao.
Suddenly, he saw something, grabbed Jiang Xu's hand, and pointed out the window: "Aunt Jiang, look, it's snowing!"
Jiang Xu walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and watched the tiny snowflakes falling from the sky.
“It’s really snowing.”
She looked down and found Tuanbao with his hands clasped on his chest and his eyes closed, not knowing what he was doing.
After a while, when Tuanbao opened his eyes, she asked, "Tuanbao, what are you doing?"
Tuanbao said seriously, "Make a wish. Aunt Youyun said that the best time to make a wish is when the first snow falls every year."
Jiang Xu asked, "Can you tell me what wish you made?"
Tuanbao shook his head: "No, it's not allowed if you say it out loud."
Jiang Xu didn't ask any more questions. She clasped her hands together and closed her eyes, facing the window. "Then Auntie may have a wish."
She silently said in her heart: I hope He Linxi will have a safe, healthy and happy life.
On the side, Tuanbao looked at Jiang Xu's profile as he made a wish, then looked at his father who was busy in the kitchen.
How I wish that the wishes I made could come true.
