Chapter 482 Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Relationship
"Auntie, please say." Su Jiaojiao stopped and turned to face her.
Lin Manli is still dressed fashionably, with a dark green Chanel-style jacket, black wide-leg pants, and high heels. Her hair is neatly tied behind her head with an ink-colored hairpin.
Time has never defeated beauty. Although there are some fine lines at the corners of her eyes, her facial features are still very attractive. It's just that her facial expression is too stiff, and her whole body exudes an aura that keeps strangers away.
Lu Jingyou looks very much like Lu Jiahe, without any trace of Lin Manli. Both father and son are much more easy-going than Lin Manli.
"I saw you guys on the street yesterday." Lin Manli was also looking at Su Jiaojiao. "I hope that if you have any problems in the future, you can solve them privately and not make it known to everyone. Save some face for Jingyou."
Being young is good. Her fair and delicate skin makes her eyebrows and eyes look particularly delicate. She wears a pink open-collared top, white jeans, has a slim figure, and long flowing hair. She looks youthful and beautiful.
Her son was fascinated by such a face.
"Auntie, I think you should talk to Lu Jingyou about this instead of me, because I don't like it either." When Su Jiaojiao heard her mention what happened yesterday, she understood. She didn't deliberately argue with Lu Jingyou on the road. It was Lu Jingyou who kept pestering her, and she didn't want to take the blame.
"I know my son well. He's been well-behaved since he was young. He would never do something so outrageous for no reason. Even if he did something wrong, you should be understanding and not ask him to put down his work and come back to apologize to you." Lin Manli said unhappily when she saw Su Jiaojiao putting the blame on Lu Jingyou. "You've already met the parents, and we've acknowledged your relationship. As his girlfriend, you should always put him first, not hold him back."
"You're an elder, and you should understand that whether you're a man or a woman, if you do something wrong, you should apologize. That's called responsibility, not relying on others' understanding to solve the problem." Su Jiaojiao said expressionlessly, "If a man doesn't even have this level of responsibility, he's truly shameless."
"You knew he liked you, so you took advantage of his affection for you to control him and embarrass him in public." Lin Manli felt bad when she recalled the scene yesterday. "You are his girlfriend, you should protect his self-esteem. There is nothing that cannot be resolved privately."
"He was the one who came looking for me, not me looking for him, so you really should go and persuade Lu Jingyou about this matter." Su Jiaojiao said calmly, "I grew up well-behaved and never thought that one day I would be blocked on the road. Do I have no self-respect? Different positions lead to different attitudes. I don't think I did anything wrong."
Lin Manli was about to say something when she saw Lu Jingyou pushing Old Man Lu in a wheelchair. Su Jiaojiao smiled slightly and asked, "Grandpa, how are you feeling?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm much better now." Mr. Lu was very happy to see Su Jiaojiao come to see him. "Don't you have class today?"
"No classes this afternoon." Su Jiaojiao replied. Lu Jingyou looked at Su Jiaojiao with a smile on his face. "When did you come?"
"I've been here for a while." Su Jiaojiao said with a smile, "I'm chatting with my aunt!"
"What are you talking about?" Lu Jingyou was very happy that his mother could talk to Su Jiaojiao. He sincerely hoped that they could get along well.
"We were talking about what happened yesterday," Su Jiaojiao said with a smile. "Auntie said we shouldn't be hustling on the street, and I said I didn't like it either. So we both thought your way was inappropriate, and you came back while we were talking."
Lin Manli frowned.
Did she do it on purpose?
Lu Jingyou helped Old Man Lu out of his wheelchair and laid him on the bed. He thought they were just chatting and didn't interrupt. Lu Jingyou understood immediately and said with a light cough, "It was indeed my fault. I will pay more attention next time."
"Since you are all here, I'll go back first." Lin Manli's face darkened and she turned around and left the ward.
"Grandpa, have a banana." Su Jiaojiao didn't care about Lin Manli's attitude. She sat beside Grandpa Lu's bed and peeled a banana for him. Grandpa Lu took it, ate a few bites, and said it was delicious.
Lu Jingyou poured some water and placed it on the bedside table. He walked behind Su Jiaojiao, put his hands on her shoulders, and said to Old Man Lu, "Grandpa, don't worry too much about what's going on at home. My second uncle will be fine. You have to take care of your health."
"I know my health well. Even if he hadn't happened, I wouldn't have lived for many years." Old Master Lu looked at Su Jiaojiao and said, "My biggest wish is to see you get married. If I could see my great-grandson, I would have no regrets in this life."
After hearing this, Su Jiaojiao remained silent.
For her, getting married and having children is too far away.
"Grandpa, don't worry, you will definitely see your great-grandson." Lu Jingyou comforted him, "Didn't you say that you and grandma would help us take care of the child?"
"I'm actually looking forward to that day..." Mr. Lu's eyes fell on Su Jiaojiao and he asked her kindly, "Jingjiao, when will your mother come to the capital?"
"Around May 1st." Su Jiaojiao replied.
"That will be soon." Old Master Lu nodded and said to Lu Jingyou, "When Jiaojiao's mother comes, you must tell us as soon as possible. We need to discuss your matter with her."
"Okay." Lu Jingyou agreed. He was also waiting for her mother to come and put the matter between him and her on the agenda as soon as possible.
"Xiuming didn't say when he would be back?" Mr. Lu asked again.
"He knows you're sick and is on his way." Lu Jingyou looked at his watch. "He'll be back this afternoon."
"Your father is always more of a hindrance than a help. I asked him to negotiate with Yu Baiqiang, but he actually had a falling out with him." Old Master Lu shook his head and scolded Lu Jiahe in front of Su Jiaojiao, "It's all my fault for being too indulgent with him before. He's old, but he doesn't even have the slightest sense of responsibility. This matter still needs to be resolved by you."
"Grandpa, I don't think this matter is urgent. I will go to the police station tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to ask and see what Tang Youxin confessed." Lu Jingyou received a call from He Siyu last night, saying that when he was having dinner with Qin Xiuming, Qin Xiuming was a little absent-minded, but he didn't notice anything unusual.
He deduced that Qin Xiuming should be connected with Lu Jiaping. Now they need to figure out who the victim is, Yu Baiqiang or Lu Jiaping. Three million is not a small amount and cannot be given away casually.
Su Jiaojiao listened quietly to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson, and looked at the medical record card on the bedside, which showed Mr. Lu's name and age: Lu Hetang, 75 years old.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you!" Old Master Lu nodded. He answered a phone call and said, "Xiao Wu is here and is downstairs. Take Jiao Jiao home for dinner and let your grandma rest assured."
After they left the ward, Su Jiaojiao said to Lu Jingyou, "I won't go to your house. I'm going to visit the new factory."
"Okay, I'll come find you another day." Lu Jingyou held her hand and asked her, "If my mother said something that made you unhappy, don't take it to heart. I'll go back and tell her right away."
"Your family has so many things to do." The Lu family, which appears bright and beautiful on the outside, actually has a lot of trivial matters to deal with.
"To me, these are all trivial matters." Lu Jingyou squeezed her fingers. "Nothing is more important than you."
"Then you should resolve these little things first." Su Jiaojiao looked at the long hospital corridor and said calmly, "For example, yesterday, your mother felt that even if you were wrong, I should still understand you and save your face instead of asking you to run back from the outskirts of Beijing to apologize to me."
