Upon hearing her daughter suspect that her chosen daughter-in-law was a fraud, Old Madam Shen laughed and said, "Do I look like I'm old and blind?"
She can tell at a glance whether someone is a gold digger or not.
Shen Jingshu poured her mother a cup of tea. "One should always be wary of others. After all, I have had real dealings with Miss Jiang, and Miss Jiang even saved Jingnian's life. But you and that girl only met once."
Although my mother has always had a good eye for people, she is getting old after all.
Society is so complex these days, and some people will stop at nothing to achieve their goals.
Shen Jingshu was worried that her mother was being taken advantage of.
Madam Shen picked up her cup, took a sip of tea, and said, "Jing Shu, I'm telling you this now: when you meet that girl, you'll definitely fall in love with her too."
Shen Jingshu has high standards, and there are very few people she can like at first sight.
Except for Jiang Ning.
But how many people like Jiang Ning are there in the world?
"Mom, this is just your subjective opinion."
Madam Shen smiled and said, "Then let's wait and see. I'm destined to meet that young girl again someday."
Although Madam Shen didn't even know the girl's name, she just felt that she and the girl were destined to be together.
If fate brings us together, there's no need to wait.
The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and then Mrs. Shen went to take a nap.
Shen Jingshu went to prepare the menu for the evening.
After finalizing the menu, she specifically called over the caregiver who had been looking after her mother. "Aunt Wang, the old lady is getting on in years, and sometimes she inevitably becomes confused. Please keep a close eye on her and make sure she isn't fooled by those people outside. If anything unusual happens, remember to contact me immediately."
Aunt Wang nodded. "Yes, Miss, I will be careful."
Shen Jingshu was always good at winning people's hearts. After explaining some precautions, she casually handed Aunt Wang a red envelope, saying, "I heard that your son is getting married soon. This is a small token of my appreciation."
"Thank you, miss."

On the other side.
The Jiang family.
Zhou Jinpeng was discharged from the hospital and returned home today.
To celebrate his recovery and return home, Grandpa Jiang put on his reading glasses and started planning what dishes to cook for dinner.
"grandfather."
Jiang Ning pushed open the door and came back from outside.
"Ningning is back," Grandpa Jiang immediately took off his glasses. "Are you hungry? Grandpa will prepare a meal right away."
Jiang Ning followed Grandpa Jiang into the kitchen, washing her hands as she said, "Grandpa, I have something to tell you."
"What is it?" Grandpa Jiang asked.
“I’ve found a new three-bedroom apartment in Building 5 of our complex, and we can move in anytime.” Fearing that Grandpa Jiang might not agree to move, Jiang Ning added, “I’ve already paid the rent and deposit.”
Although a three-bedroom apartment would be more comfortable, the rent is more than a thousand yuan more expensive per month than my current two-bedroom apartment.
Thinking of this, Grandpa Jiang frowned slightly. "Ningning, I'm perfectly fine living in the living room. Why waste this money? You'll be going to university next year, and there will be many other expenses in the future." He wanted to make sure every penny was spent wisely.
"The living room isn't a place to sleep," Jiang Ning continued. "Grandpa, don't worry about the money. Your granddaughter is really capable now. She knows how to make games, trade stocks, and buy funds. She's made quite a bit of money lately. Oh, and here's your bank card, here you go."
If Mr. Jiang were to check his bank account balance now, he would be surprised to find that his balance has increased from 35,000 to 350,000.
It increased tenfold.
"What you get with the card is yours!"
Jiang Ning stuffed the bank card directly into Grandpa Jiang's pocket. "Grandpa, I don't have a lot of money right now, but I do have some. Besides, if I really run out of money, I'll definitely ask you for it."
Grandpa Jiang couldn't refuse his granddaughter, so he had to accept the bank card, saying, "If you don't have any money, you must tell Grandpa."
"Okay." Jiang Ning nodded.
Around 5 p.m., Zhou Jinpeng returned home from the hospital with his luggage. After staying in the hospital for a while, he no longer needs a wheelchair.
At the dinner table, Jiang Ning told Zhou Jinpeng about the move.
"Grandpa Zhou, our lease on this apartment is about to expire, so I've rented a new three-bedroom apartment. Would you like to move in with us?"
Zhou Jinpeng smiled and said, "Then I'll move in with you. But I won't be staying for long, maybe two or three months at most. I might have to trouble you to find new roommates then."
“It’s alright, we’re just moving to Building 5 temporarily. My grandfather and I will be moving there soon too,” Jiang Ning said.
"Where are you moving to?" Zhou Jinpeng asked, somewhat surprised.
Jiang Ning said, "Let's move to Fenghua Villa near No. 1 Middle School."
