She took out an empty red envelope and waved it in front of her daughter, "Oh my, is this the little rich girl who received over 100,000 yuan in New Year's money when she was only a few months old?"
Xiaoxiao's little hand quickly and accurately grabbed a corner of the red envelope, and then she held the red envelope with both hands and wouldn't let go.
Seeing this, Zong Jiayu laughed and said, "Hahaha, our Xiaoxiao is just like her mother, little money-grubber number 2."
Jiang Xiaoli tried to pull the red envelope back, worried that the child would put anything in his mouth.
Unexpectedly, the little girl had quite a strong grip. Not wanting to use force to snatch the red envelope from her for fear of hurting her, I could only pry her little hand open little by little.
Zong Jia immediately took a warm, damp towel and wiped her daughter's hands.
She looked at it and smiled, saying, "The dad is very competent, not bad, not bad."
After the Spring Festival, the "Jiang Group" officially entered the tourism industry.
With the support of his financial power, Li Anting recruited and assembled a complete team for "Jiang's Cultural Tourism".
Under Ding Lin's control, "Jiang's Inn" gradually got on the right track and began to open hotels in Kyoto as a pilot project.
The original subsidiaries of "Jiang's Group" also submitted their expansion plans. After several rounds of revisions, Jiang Xiaoli signed "Agreed" on their applications.
On the day of Qingming Festival, Jiang Xiaoli's family, along with Grandpa Jiang and Grandma Jiang, returned to Xijing.
After the elders finished speaking, she walked to Jiang Weimin's tombstone and pointed to Zong Jia and her daughter in his arms.
"Dad, I've come to tell you some good news today! Please knock, this is your granddaughter Xiaoxiao, her full name is Jiang Fuya."
Isn't this a nice name? Ah Yu and I made her return to the Jiang surname. This name was carefully chosen by Grandpa!
Now that there's another person in the family, please remember to look after us and bless us with peace and safety.
They chatted with Jiang Weimin for a long time, and it was almost 6 o'clock when they came out of the Martyrs' Cemetery.
Grandma Jiang said, "Let's take Xiaoxiao with us and not make things too difficult. Let's stay in Xijing tonight and go back to Kyoto tomorrow."
After they finished their meal and settled into the hotel, Jiang Xiaoli took Zong Jiayu out for a stroll.
"I deliberately saved some room in my stomach while we were eating. Shall we find a place to get some liangpi (cold skin noodles)?"
Zong Jia smiled and nodded in agreement.
They casually strolled into a liangpi (cold skin noodles) shop. "Boss! Two servings each of liangpi, roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), and Bingfeng (a local soft drink)!"
"Okay! Coming right away!"
The efficient proprietress first handed them two bottles of Bingfeng soda, then turned around to prepare cold noodles for them.
Soon, when the cold noodles were served, the curtain in the kitchen was pulled open, and a boy placed a small basket in front of them.
"Please enjoy your roujiamo (Chinese hamburger)."
Upon hearing this voice, Jiang Xiaoli and Zong Jia looked up simultaneously, and the air seemed to freeze for a moment when their eyes met.
Zong Jiayu reacted first, and he greeted him with a smile, "Pumpkin, long time no see."
Pumpkin's Adam's apple bobbed, and he said in a low voice, "Brother Zong, Little Pear, it's been a long time."
Seeing this, the proprietress came over and asked, "Honey, are these two your friends?"
Pumpkin didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he just said, "Why don't you go to the back and tidy up first?"
The proprietress hesitated for two seconds, then said "okay" and went to the kitchen.
Zong Jia patted the stool next to him and said, "Sit down."
Pumpkin didn't sit down next to him; instead, she pulled out a stool and sat on the side of the table.
Jiang Xiaoli smiled and said, "You own this shop? The cold noodles taste good, business must be pretty good, right?"
Pumpkin nodded. "Yeah, I saved up some money from work, and then I went to Qin Town to find a master to learn from for a while. This area is a residential area with schools, so business is pretty good."
The method for choosing a shop was taught to him by Jiang Xiaoli.
Zong Jia looked around the store and said, "It's clean and tidy, quite nice."
After exchanging those few words, the three of them fell silent, unsure of what else to say.
After a long while, Pumpkin finally spoke, "Brother Zong, thank you for what happened before. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to keep custody of the child, and I might even have been sentenced to prison."
Zong Jia did not deny what they had done, saying, "It's not worth ruining yourself for that family."
"Yes, it's not worth it," Pumpkin sighed softly.
After finishing their meal, Jiang Xiaoli and the other person got up to say goodbye.
Pumpkin smiled and said, "Brother Zong, Little Pear, I hope you both have a bright future."
Zong Jia patted him on the shoulder and said, "If you run this little shop well, business will be good. Live a good life from now on."
Leaving the liangpi shop, Jiang Xiaoli held Zong Jiayu's hand and said, "He has changed quite a bit in the past two years. He no longer thinks about making a fortune in business overnight."
Zong Jia nodded. "The cold noodles at the shop are pretty good, so the income should be quite stable. His current wife also seems quite shrewd and capable."
She smiled and said, "As long as the couple works together with one mind and one heart, their future will definitely be prosperous. Who knows, they might even open a chain of liangpi (cold skin noodles) shops."
Zong Jia put his arm around her shoulder and said with a smile, "Yes, everything will be alright."
...
Back in Kyoto, Jiang Xiaoli and Zong Jiayu were extremely busy.
On April 10th, Dafu and Changyue, and Zhong Yuan and Hu Jingxin held their wedding ceremony together.
The subsidiaries under the "Jiang Group" are either in the initial stage of building their empire or in the stage of rapid expansion.
Neither her subordinates nor Li Anting could resolve the problems reported to her; none of them had a good solution.
"Yujia Technology's" "Arrow of the Ice" will begin its public beta test on June 1st. These two months are the final debugging phase, and no one dares to take it lightly.
In addition, Jiang Xiaoli also had to act as a bridge of communication, helping Qiao Xing'er arrange the engagement between Jiang Chengle and Xiao Muyu on June 12.
During this period, the two of them were like two spinning tops, constantly turning and never stopping.
Li Guizhi, who had been holding back for a long time, finally exploded, "You two are going too far! We never see you all day long. Tell me, when was the last time you played with Xiaoxiao?"
Jiang Xiaoli was very polite. She immediately raised her hand and vowed, "Mom, once I'm done with this busy period, I'll definitely stop and spend more time at home with you and Xiaoxiao!"
Zong Jiayu also said, "Me too. The game is about to be launched, and many employees are already living at the company. Me..."
Li Guizhi sighed, "I know you two are busy, but the child grows up in the blink of an eye. No matter how busy you are, you shouldn't miss the child's growth. You really need to take this issue seriously!"
Let's not even talk about anything else. Xiaoxiao is almost 7 months old, and it won't be long before she starts calling people. Do you two really want her to be the first to say "Grandma" before she even knows how to say "Dad" or "Mom"?
Seeing that they were listening, she continued, "I'm not asking you to stay home with the child 24 hours a day, but at least you can spare ten or thirty minutes each day, right?"
Jiang Xiaoli and Zong Jia exchanged a glance. "Okay."
