Chapter 426: Conflict between Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law
"Then you can't hide everything from us, right?" Lu Jiahe felt very awkward being caught between two women. "Manli is Jingyou's mother after all. It's inappropriate for you to do this."
He hopes that the family can sit down and discuss anything that comes up.
Instead of doing their own thing.
"So, it's appropriate for you to keep it a secret from us?" Mrs. Lu was displeased when she saw Lu Jiahe actually siding with Lin Manli and questioning her. "How dare you say you didn't know about Jingyou's relationship with this girl?"
"I admit that I knew, and I urged Jingyou to take her home to meet my parents, but Jingyou said that she was still in school and didn't want our family to disturb her. I respected Jingyou's opinion, so I didn't tell you!"
"Look, you admit you knew about this beforehand, right?" Mrs. Lu sneered. "Not only did you know, but you also made the decision to disapprove of Jingyou's girlfriend. Do you still have any regard for us?"
"Mom, they're just dating, not getting married. There's no need to make it public before they meet the parents, right?" Lu Jiahe explained, "Jing You has been very busy these past two years, and we didn't know he'd been dating this girl for so long. Besides, Jing You has been living with you guys the whole time, and he never told anyone..."
"He didn't tell us so we wouldn't disturb his girlfriend. I don't blame him, but you guys are blaming me for hiding it from you even though you knew it all. Who's being unreasonable?"
“…” Lu Jiahe was completely speechless.
"I don't want to know what you think. I only care about Jingyou's thoughts." Mrs. Lu said with a stern face, "Besides, it's none of your business who I treat well. Even if Su Jiaojiao is not my granddaughter-in-law, I will treat her well because I like her and I am willing to do so."
"Jiahe, our relationship with Su Jiaojiao is purely a relationship between neighbors, not as a member of the Lu family." Song Xiangyun has been friends with Old Madam Lu for many years and is considered an elder in the Lu family. Even Old Master Lu has to give her some face. In her eyes, Lu Jiahe is also a junior. "Su Jiaojiao still doesn't know that the old lady is Jingyou's grandmother. I don't understand why you are angry?"
"So, don't come here again." Mrs. Lu said unhappily, "If you have anything to say, wait until I get back and talk to you."
Lu Jiahe had no choice but to leave Jinyuan in disappointment.
What is going on...
"By the way, Manli called me just now and asked where we were. I didn't tell her, but Jiahe actually showed up." Song Xiangyun stood on the balcony, watching Lu Jiahe drive away, puzzled, "I wonder how Manli knew we were here?" "Who cares how she knew." Old Mrs. Lu was furious with the couple, "I've told her several times that Jingyou's affairs should be decided by himself, but she just wouldn't listen. She kept trying to stop us. With her attitude, Jingyou won't get married for a long time. How can I let her do whatever she wants?"
She can turn a deaf ear to other things.
But this one thing is absolutely unacceptable, and she will take care of it.
"She feels that you concealed the matter between Jingyou and Jiaojiao and didn't consider her as a mother." Song Xiangyun was an outsider and could see it clearly. "But I advise you to have a good talk with Manli and avoid making things unpleasant. After all, she is Jingyou's mother and she can't get away with this."
"Since this place has been exposed, let's move back tomorrow!" Mrs. Lu thought for a moment, "If they run here again, Jiaojiao will definitely be suspicious. I don't want her to know who I am before Jingyou takes her home."
In fact, she wanted to live here for a few more days, not for Su Jiaojiao, but because she felt that life in the community was pretty good.
Everyone is busy and living a lively life, which is very lively and down-to-earth.
"Should we tell Jiaojiao?" Song Xiangyun had lived here with the old lady for several months and was a little reluctant to leave.
"I don't want to rent out this house. Give her the key and ask her to come and take care of it when she's empty. Just tell her that our house has been renovated and we've moved back first, and we can come here when this one becomes empty." The landlord of the first floor only sold it and didn't rent it out, so she bought the first floor.
But the old man said that house prices are rising now, and this location is good, so it’s also a good idea to invest in real estate.
The next morning, when Su Jiaojiao was about to go to Wudaokou to sell goods, Song Xiangyun and the old lady arrived. Su Jiaojiao immediately invited them into the house. It was the first time for the old lady to come to their home.
When Su Jiaojiao learned that the old lady was going to leave the key to her, she was surprised: "Grandma, isn't it inappropriate for me to hold the key?"
Although the old lady didn't have many things at home.
But it was someone else's home after all, and it was really inappropriate for her to hold the key.
"What's inappropriate about this?" Mrs. Lu insisted on leaving the key to her. "If the water pipe bursts or the sewer gets blocked, we'll have to come here again. Please help us take care of it. We'll have to come back later."
"Yeah, and besides, the sewing machine at home can't be left for long. You can go over and use it when you have time, or do some handicrafts or something." Seeing Su Jiaojiao was about to pour tea for the two of them, Song Xiangyun waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, we'll be leaving now."
"Grandma, let me take you there!" Su Jiaojiao thought they were going to take the bus back. Old Mrs. Lu took Su Jiaojiao's hand and said with a smile, "We've already agreed that your Grandma Song's son will come pick us up. Have a good meal. We'll come to see you when we're free."
"Okay." Su Jiaojiao was also a little reluctant, "You should also eat well and take care of your health."
Although she had once suspected the two old ladies, after spending so many days with them, she could not see any motives from them. Instead, they were still as kind to her as ever.
Especially these days, she can eat the meals they cook almost every day. Although they are all home-cooked dishes, they are all home-cooked dishes that have been carefully prepared, which has also spoiled her appetite.
The two old ladies satisfied all her fantasies of a grandmother: kindness, tolerance, and the open-minded attitude towards life that comes from someone who has experienced many hardships.
Now, they are moving away...
Cai Ting and Ding Linyu were surprised to learn that the two old ladies had left their keys behind. Cai Ting still felt something was wrong: "Jingjiao, don't go to the first floor alone in the future. We'll go with you. What if you get kidnapped the moment you open the door..."
"You should watch less TV dramas like this in the future." Su Jiaojiao was feeling depressed when Cai Ting's words about kidnapping ruined the mood. "All you know is kidnapping."
"That's right, don't say that." Ding Linyu pushed Cai Ting. "If Jiaojiao really gets kidnapped one day, it will be your fault for talking nonsense."
"..." Su Jiaojiao was speechless. It seemed that the company would have to formulate some rules and regulations in the future, such as not being able to make fun of her casually.
The three of them were chatting when Qin Xiuming suddenly walked in. He walked up to Su Jiaojiao and looked down at her: "Jiaojiao, I have something to tell you. Let's find a place to sit down!"
Cai Ting and Ding Linyu tactfully went to the shop opposite.
They had just finished lunch, so it wasn't busy at that time and the hourly workers had all gone home from get off work.
"Let's talk about it here!" Su Jiaojiao didn't want to go out with him. She and Qin Xiuming hadn't seen each other since their last meeting.
There was no contact during this period.
She felt there was nothing to talk about between them.
"I forgot. Now that you're the big boss, it's hard to make an appointment." Qin Xiuming found a stool and sat down. "Did Yu Tian say anything to you?"
"She said so much to me, which one are you asking about?" Su Jiaojiao was very disgusted with Qin Xiuming's tone.
