Chapter 136 "Open your mouth."
In the lobby on the first floor of the main building of the Huo family's old house, Qiu Huilan received a message from the security at the gate and learned that Jiang Qin's car had arrived.
He called Sister Wu and said happily, "Let's go out and pick up the Second Young Master's wife!"
"Hey, old lady." Sister Wu quickly caught up with Qiu Huilan. When she heard that they were going to pick up Jiang Qin, a happy smile appeared on her face.
Jiang Qin was usually polite in her dealings with others, and this behavior easily made the maids feel good about her.
These days, Sister Wu has been dealing with Jiang Qin more and more about the old lady's acupuncture every now and then. She has a better understanding of Jiang Qin, who is a consistent person inside and out, and she likes him even more.
And precisely because of their love for Jiang Qin, the old lady and Sister Wu couldn't help but quicken their pace towards the door.
The result was that after walking for less than half a minute, they saw a tall and handsome man coming in from the front door, and he seemed to be holding the person they wanted to see!
Sister Wu was in her forties and had better eyesight than the old lady. She was the first to see it, was immediately startled, and quickly stopped.
Then I wanted to remind the old lady, but I saw that she also stopped.
He blinked uncertainly and turned back.
He asked her, "Is that brat back? Is that Qinqin in his arms?"
Qiu Huilan was a little nearsighted when she was young. As she got older, although she had been taking some health supplements to supplement the nutrients needed for her eyes, her eyesight was still not as good as when she was young.
This distance was still a bit far for Qiu Huilan, so Qiu Huilan could only judge who the person coming in was based on her intuition.
She looked quite like Horsley, and the person she was holding seemed to be her beloved granddaughter-in-law from the way she was dressed. However, she was not sure, so she asked Anxin anyway.
Sister Wu answered immediately, and said respectfully, "It is the Second Young Master and his wife, old lady. You are not mistaken. It is the Second Young Master who came in carrying his wife."
Qiu Huilan's eyes lit up, and a look of pride appeared on her kind face again.
"Oh, I didn't expect that your attitude of admitting your mistake is pretty good this time."
But as soon as he finished speaking, he couldn't help but frown.
Yeah, that doesn’t seem right? Did his granddaughter-in-law forgive him? Why did he just hug her?
When I think about it carefully, it seems a bit too overbearing.
Qiu Huilan frowned and shook her head. It would not work if either of the husband and wife was too domineering.
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw the figure in front of her becoming clearer and clearer, and Qiu Huilan took a step forward.
As for the fact that Mrs. Huo appeared on the road leading to the gate at this moment, Huo Sili's face showed no surprise at all.
Of course, he also knew that the old lady was not here to pick him up.
"Grandma!" Seeing Old Lady Huo, Jiang Qin, who was being held in Huo Sili's arms, called out quickly.
Qiu Huilan smiled kindly, then looked up and glanced at Huo Sili.
With a glance, Huo Sili pursed his lips and gently put Jiang Qin on the ground.
Jiang Qin quickly stood up and straightened her clothes. The old lady glanced at Huo Sili again, took Jiang Qin's arm and walked inside.
As they walked, they talked about today's arrangements, "Qinqin, Grandpa is here today. It's grandma and grandpa's 50th wedding anniversary, the golden wedding anniversary, and your grandpa happens to be free to come back, so we decided to take a family photo today."
"Then, we also need to take photos to commemorate grandma and grandpa's golden wedding anniversary..."
The old lady smiled lovingly and walked in with Jiang Qin on her arm, looking like a real grandmother and granddaughter.
Sister Wu, who had been following the old lady just now, quickly and politely stepped aside when the old lady and Jiang Qin walked in, thinking that she would let the three masters go first and she would go in last.
Unexpectedly, after looking down at his toes for a long time, he looked up and found a tall figure next to him.
The young man was tall and handsome, but the atmosphere surrounding him was too cold.
So much so that even though it is pleasing to the eye at first glance, people dare not take a second look after just one glance.
Sister Wu quickly lowered her head again.
After a while, the gentleman finally took a step forward.
Only then did Sister Wu raise her head and follow in small steps.
At the same time, in the lobby in front, Jiang Qin was pulled by Qiu Huilan to sit on the sofa.
"Qinqin, you are young and have better aesthetic taste. Help grandma choose which wedding dress is more suitable for us old people."
As she spoke, Qiu Huilan picked up a thick atlas that had obviously been flipped back and forth on the coffee table.
Jiang Qin actually wanted to talk to Huo Sili about divorce at this moment, but she was assigned a task as soon as she entered the house, and this task was obviously not easy to avoid.
Facing the old lady's amiable face, Jiang Qin agreed obediently, "Okay, I'll take a look."
No matter what happens in the future, at least up to now, the old lady has been very good to her, there is no doubt about that.
Moreover, thinking that the old lady was also a close friend of Grandma Xiao Yuxiu, Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel closer to her.
Jiang Qin looked through the album carefully, chatting with the old lady and asking her about her ideas. Then she realized that this album was a plan specially customized for the old lady by the photography company.
There are a total of more than 20 sets of wedding dresses including headdresses, veils and jewelry. They are more suitable for the elderly and are more dignified. In addition to being dignified, they also have their own styles.
There are gorgeous and luxurious wedding dresses with heavy embroidery and long skirts, elegant satin wedding dresses suitable for matching with pearls, and retro and elegant multi-layered lace wedding dresses like dynasty princesses with a more conservative design and not too much skin exposure.
Each set is very beautiful, and you can tell that each set was carefully designed for the old lady by the photography company.
Realizing this, Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel a little conflicted - she didn't know there was such an arrangement today.
Originally, she was thinking of coming to talk to Huo Sili about the divorce agreement today. Even if the old lady or the old man found out about it accidentally, then that would be it. After all, the old lady's health condition had already recovered by more than half.
According to the recent news from Sister Wu, the old lady can watch those old TV dramas with ease, and she gets excited while watching them, and can even curse her daily life without any hesitation.
This meant that the situation was much better than she had imagined, and naturally, there was no need to hide the divorce as before.
Besides this, she also thought at that time that the old lady was not a smart person - since she supported her to move out, she must be aware of the irreconcilable contradictions between her and Horsley.
Therefore, even if the divorce news was leaked today, the old man probably wouldn’t say anything, but would more likely just say “I knew it”.
But, this incident happened.
It’s their 50th golden wedding anniversary. The old lady and the old man are going to take photos for their golden wedding anniversary today.
On such a day, if the two elders were unhappy because of what happened between her and Huo Sili.
Whether as a granddaughter-in-law, a junior, or an ordinary person.
Jiang Qin would feel guilty.
Jiang Qin was flipping through the album, feeling a little depressed. She turned around and saw several maids setting up breakfast at the dining table on the other side.
Perhaps it was because she saw her suddenly looking at her, Sister Wu, who was waiting beside her after she entered the house, smiled.
"Madam Second Young Master, would you like some snacks? I'll bring some to you."
In fact, on weekends, they usually eat something before coming over, but the elderly are always afraid that the young people will be hungry, so every time they come to the old house, they will let them eat something when they arrive.
However, Jiang Qin was not actually hungry. She was just tired of looking at the picture album with her head down, so she wanted to raise her head to stretch her cervical spine.
But just as she was about to shake her head, the tall figure who had been standing on her side since she came in moved first.
In less than two seconds, a white porcelain plate with a rose painted on it appeared next to her.
The old lady raised her eyes and glanced at Huo Sili, then looked at Jiang Qin with a smile. The look she had just given Huo Sili was obviously not one of blame, but the look she gave Jiang Qin now was clearly full of expectation.
Jiang Qin was about to put down the album and said that she would go wash her hands and come over to eat.
However, just as she was about to put down the album on her lap, Horsley picked up a piece of pastry with two slender fingers and fed it to her mouth.
The old lady opened her mouth and was about to utter the word "yo", but then she took it back.
Ci Ai smiled at Jiang Qin, then looked at Huo Sili, and said with obvious happiness.
"Come on, you little brat, you know how to love your wife! All right, behave yourself. Ah, don't stand there, sit on the sofa. Grandma will go upstairs to pay her respects and come down later."
As she spoke, the old lady walked upstairs alone, and Sister Wu hurried to follow her.
Qiu Huilan waved her hand, smiled and gave him a look, "No need, the old man is upstairs."
Sister Wu paused, met his gaze, and naturally understood, and quickly nodded: "Yes."
The old lady was still a little worried about the Second Young Master and his wife being alone, so she asked her to keep an eye on the situation downstairs.
And with Sister Wu coming back like this, Jiang Qin felt a little embarrassed as she was being fed by people watching.
The piece of pastry in Huo Sili's hand had already touched Jiang Qin's lips. If Sister Wu had followed the old lady upstairs, Jiang Qin would definitely not have eaten it, but Sister Wu came back like this...
I don’t know what the old lady was thinking, but which elder doesn’t want their grandchildren to have a happy marriage?
Thinking that today is the old lady’s golden wedding anniversary, I really don’t want her to be unhappy on this day.
Her pink lips slightly parted, and she took a bite of the pastry out of courtesy.
Jiang Qin loves to eat pastries, but when she eats them herself, she always holds something to hold them.
Otherwise, the puff pastry will easily break into pieces when you bite it.
Since there was nothing to catch it, Jiang Qin decided to reach out and catch it herself to avoid it falling on her clothes and getting them dirty.
As soon as he reached out his hand, Horsley put the plate on the coffee table and reached out his big hand to take it.
Four big words suddenly popped up in Jiang Qin’s mind - this is too weird.
She is not a child! What is he doing?
Especially, Sister Wu was standing next to her. At her age, Sister Wu could be her mother.
Jiang Qin's ears turned slightly red, but she was not shy, but simply felt extremely embarrassed.
However, Horsley was not done yet. After she finished the piece in her mouth, he pushed the snack forward again. His magnetic and pleasant voice suddenly spoke two words, but they were particularly tender: "Open your mouth."
The snack is right next to her mouth, how could she not open her mouth?
Jiang Qin thought, he did it on purpose, right?
She raised her beautiful black eyes and glanced at him angrily. He kept his brows still and stared at her lips with his black eyes.
It seemed that she felt the gaze and looked over, but the next sentence was even more wrong, so wrong that Sister Wu, who was standing next to her, wanted to find something to do quickly so as to leave this ambiguous and charming atmosphere——
"If you don't open your mouth to eat it, do you want to eat me?"
