Chapter 249 Grandpa Shen, the old bad guy
Xu Ziyue's eyes were determined. She glanced at Aunt Ning Jing who was still crying, then walked over.
She came to the bedside and gently comforted him, "Aunt Ningjing, Uncle Shen loves you so much. If you are sad, he will be sad too. My father once told me that when people die, they turn into stars in the sky. When you look up at night, the brightest star is your loved one looking at you. Uncle Shen must be watching you from heaven. He doesn't want you to be sad and cry."
Zi Yue's unintentional words made Ning Jing stop crying temporarily. It was also a coincidence that her husband had mentioned to her that people would turn into stars after death when he was still alive.
Ning Jing looked at the unfamiliar girl in front of her with tears in her eyes: "Who are you?"
"My name is Xu Ziyue. Xu means gentle breeze, Zi means purple air coming from the east, and Yue means moon on the full moon night." The girl's voice was sweet and contained obvious coaxing tone.
Seeing that his mother had stopped crying, Shen Shian looked at Xu Ziyue with gratitude.
"Why are you here?" What Ning Jing actually wanted to ask was, as a stranger, why did you appear at this time and come to comfort me?
"Oh, I came here with Brother Shi'an. I went to see him and he came here in a hurry. I was worried that he would fall, so I followed him here." Xu Ziyue said truthfully.
Ning Jing looked at the little girl, then at her son, and finally back at the little girl, "Are you Shi An's girlfriend?"
Her son is not interested in women and keeps himself clean.
This little girl cares so much about her son, I'm afraid they are good friends.
There is rarely pure friendship between men and women.
Unexpectedly, Ning Jing misunderstood their relationship. The two looked at each other immediately, their eyes meeting. Xu Ziyue thought that this could not be misunderstood, and opened her mouth to explain, but Master Shen's voice suddenly interrupted at this time:
"Yes, yes, Ning Jing, this little girl is Shi An's girlfriend. You are going to have a daughter-in-law and become a grandmother. You must not do anything stupid, otherwise your son and daughter-in-law will be sad."
"Grandpa Shen!" Xu Ziyue was speechless. Grandpa Shen was too much. How could he say such things? With Aunt Ning Jing's mental state, she would really believe it.
Xu Ziyue kept giving Master Shen a look - Grandpa, you are going too far this time, I want to expose your lies!
Grandpa Shen also gave her a look - save people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, you can't let her down at this time.
As the two of them exchanged glances, Shen Shian said, "Mom, Zi Yue isn't actually..."
Ning Jing raised her eyes to look at her son: "No what?"
Shen Shian clearly saw the fragility in his mother's eyes. His throat seemed to be stuck. After a pause, he smiled and said, "It's not that she meant to disturb you. She is just worried about you."
Ning Jing curled the corners of her lips slightly, her expression gentle: "I don't think it's a bother. I'm very happy that you finally found a girlfriend. Shi'an, at your age, you really should have a relationship. Before, your grandfather and I were worried that you were... you were..."
"What is it?" Xu Ziyue's big eyes were full of curiosity.
Ning Jing glanced at Zi Yue, her smile becoming more pronounced: "I thought he didn't like girls."
"Yes, I like him." Master Shen continued his daughter-in-law's words, "Ningjing, you must take good care of your health. When they get married, you will be the one to take care of the wedding."
Ning Jing nodded slightly: "Dad, I know."
Master Shen added, "Ziyue is the apple of her parents' eyes. They will definitely be reluctant to let such a lovely girl marry off. You should also work hard on the businesses under your name, make more money, and give a larger dowry. That way, both families will be satisfied. Don't you agree?"
Ning Jing nodded again: "That makes sense. I wonder how much betrothal gift Yueyue's family wants?"
Ning Jing said this while looking at Xu Ziyue.
Xu Ziyue was confused as she had to get married and receive a betrothal gift for no apparent reason. It was actually okay that her reputation had changed here. She could just find a suitable opportunity to explain it later. So, the show had to go on.
What's the typical betrothal gift for people in Jinghai? I heard my mom and neighbors talking about it before, and it seems to be 20,000 yuan.
"Ah, Auntie, our family's betrothal gift is 20,000..."
Before he could finish his words, Master Shen interrupted him hastily: "Twenty million! Twenty million! Ning Jing, you have to work hard to make money, otherwise, Shi An won't be able to find a wife."
"Two..." Xu Ziyue looked at Master Shen with resentment. "Grandpa Shen, are you crazy? Whose betrothal gift is 20 million? Is this a betrothal gift? Is this asking for someone's life?"
Shen Shian also felt that his grandfather was exaggerating. Twenty million was not a small amount of money. It would be the end of him if his mother thought that Zi Yue Lion's request was too high and didn't like Zi Yue.
Although he was acting at the time, he really liked Zi Yue.
Because of my grandfather's interference, the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law encountered a crisis before she even caught up with him. Sigh...
Shen Shi'an held his forehead and looked at his mother worriedly.
Ning Jing was also shocked by the number. After all, 20 million is not a small amount. After a moment of silence, she finally spoke.
"Although 20 million is not a small amount, it's acceptable. It's time to work hard on business."
Xu Ziyue was shocked: "Auntie, don't you object to this? Actually, I..."
Ning Jing curled her lips and said, "I don't object. No matter how much you give me, you and Shi'an will live together in the future. These properties will eventually be left to you. However, it's not enough now, so it will take some time. I'm usually too lazy and haven't managed the business on hand. I'll check with Shi'an later to see how much money he has on hand and whether it's enough."
Every word Ning Jing said was spoken with sincerity. Xu Ziyue felt guilty and looked at Master Shen silently.
