Chapter 97 Live a Good Life
Shen Congyu's shoulders felt a little sore from kneading the dough. She stopped and inadvertently saw Jiang Xilin standing at the restaurant door.
She was startled. She didn't expect him to get up so early and so quietly.
Chen Congyu said, "It's so early. I haven't finished yet. Are you hungry? How about something else?"
Jiang Xilin was wearing a simple, thin shirt. He probably hadn't left the house yet, so he left it unbuttoned. He walked into the restaurant in a lazy manner.
"No, I'll wait for you to do it."
He took out some water from the refrigerator and drank two sips, then walked to Shen Congyu.
She didn't seem to notice that she smelled just like him.
Chen Congyu didn't know what he was thinking, but when she heard him say that he wanted to eat wontons, she had to speed up her movements.
I heard from Xue Mingrui before that Jiang Xilin has a personal assistant, but she is not with him 24 hours a day. He doesn't like having other people at home, so the personal assistant only comes to Jinghu on time to clean up and add things.
Therefore, everything you can use in the kitchen is complete.
While rolling out the dough, Chen Congyu asked, "When are we going out?"
"Eight o'clock, what? Are you afraid you'll be late?"
"Of course, since you want to eat, I have to be prepared to serve you and let you eat."
Chen Congyu is not a person who is good at pretending to be considerate, and it is easy for people to think that he is speaking in a sarcastic way.
Jiang Xilin laughed and ignored her.
He walked out with the water, Shen Congyu glanced at the time and went to boil water.
After rushing for a while, Chen Congyu finally let Jiang Xilin eat the wontons she made herself at seven o'clock.
She stood opposite Jiang Xilin, stared at him, tasted it, and asked, "How is it?"
Jiang Xilin finished chewing, without even frowning, and said, "It's okay."
Chen Congyu's energy disappeared instantly.
She was afraid that he would be dissatisfied and cause trouble again, "What should I do then?"
“Practice makes perfect.”
Oh, let her do more.
Chen Congyu deliberately said: "Boss Jiang, why don't you just hire me as your nanny? I have to serve you anyway, and I can get an extra salary."
Jiang Xilin raised his eyebrows slightly, "Which nanny talks to her employer like you?"
"You didn't really pay me, then."
Shen Congyu finished complaining in a low voice, and Jiang Xilin probably didn't hear it clearly, so he asked her to sit down and eat.
Chen Congyu is not picky about food now. She tasted the wontons and they tasted pretty good. Not very good, but just normal.
So she ate a small bowl, and Jiang Xilin only ate half a bowl of wontons that she had served first.
I don’t know why Jiang Xilin is so picky now.
Jiang Xilin didn't eat much and went upstairs. After eating, Shen Congyu put the dishes into the dishwasher and cleaned up briefly.
They got in the car before eight o'clock. Yuan An was driving. Chen Congyu wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but Yuan An said, "We have to pick up Ruirui later. You and Brother Jiang can sit in the back."
Chen Congyu became more and more curious about what he was going to do today.
When they moved to the back seat, Yuan An was handing breakfast to Jiang Xilin.
Yuan An saw Shen Congyu looking at it and said to her, “I bought more, take a look and see what you want to eat.”
Shen Congyu glanced at Jiang Xilin and said, "Thank you, I've eaten."
She stayed as far away from Jiang Xilin as possible, leaned on the other side, fastened her seat belt, and looked out the window.
Next, they went to pick up Xue Mingrui. On the way, Yuan An reported some work to Jiang Xilin. Shen Congyu was playing with her mobile phone the whole time, as if she was just a hitchhiker.
Wen Song called during the trip and talked to Shen Congyu about her flight back to Haicheng in two days.
Chen Congyu hadn't seen her for a long time and wanted to have more friends to accompany her, so her tone of voice unconsciously became much lighter.
"Okay, I'll pick you up then."
The way she spoke sounded noticeably different.
After putting away the phone, Jiang Xilin asked her: "Who are you calling? You look so happy?"
Chen Congyu replied calmly: “A friend, you don’t know him.”
He didn't say another word.
Jiang Xilin had never met many of her friends before.
She didn't deliberately introduce him to her, and he didn't mention meeting her.
Jiang Xilin thought that he and Shen Congyu were together, dating and living together, and had little to do with her friends.
Later, Jiang Xilin realized that Chen Congyu did not think the same way as him. She rarely allowed his traces to integrate into her previous life circle. She just simply did not want to.
The car stopped in front of Xue Mingrui's house. She had already packed up and was waiting. She quickly got in the car and greeted everyone one by one.
Xue Mingrui wanted to sit with Chen Congyu, but because Jiang Xilin was there, she didn't ask to change seats.
"Brother Jiang, why did Teacher Zhang choose to hold her wedding in her hometown?"
Jiang Xilin said: "In order to take care of Teacher Zhang's parents, they are old."
Xue Mingrui nodded. "That's true. I haven't seen Teacher Zhang for several years. I used to think she would never get married."
"Teacher Zhang just had to work and take care of the elderly before, so he didn't have time. It's not like he doesn't plan to not get married." Yuan An followed up the conversation.
Listening to their conversation, Shen Congyu thought about it carefully. She remembered that Jiang Xilin's high school homeroom teacher was surnamed Zhang. She had a very good relationship with him. Because she always took good care of him, he often visited her after graduation.
Not long after Shen Congyu married him, he took her to see Teacher Zhang.
It turned out that he was going to attend Teacher Zhang's wedding.
Chen Congyu had an idea in his mind.
Speaking of which, Jiang Xilin's father died early, and his mother died of illness when he was in junior high school. Since then, he has been supporting himself and studying on his own.
After entering high school, the expenses increased, and the scholarship he received was not enough, so he had to squeeze in time to work.
Teacher Zhang helped him not only with his studies, but also got him a job in a relative's restaurant at the beginning. Later, he arranged for him to tutor children. The salary was not as much as that of an adult, but it was already very good for the work he could do at that time.
With these, Jiang Xilin successfully graduated and was admitted to the best university in Shanghai.
When the university started, Teacher Zhang gave Jiang Xilin 10,000 yuan, asking him to focus on his studies first and not rush to take part-time jobs. He could pay the money back slowly in the future.
Therefore, Jiang Xilin was particularly good to Teacher Zhang. He would visit her during the holidays and even took her to visit him after marrying Shen Congyu.
Yuan An was his classmate, but Xue Mingrui was not. She was younger than them, but she was also a student taught by Teacher Zhang later.
They left early, and by the time they got there, the wedding hadn't even started yet. Teacher Zhang, now forty, didn't want a grand ceremony, so they chose a hotel in town and set up a dozen tables.
Chen Congyu followed Jiang Xilin and watched them greet each other. When Teacher Zhang saw Chen Congyu, he still remembered her and smiled and took her hand.
"I heard from Xilin that you went abroad to study a few years ago. Are you back now?"
Jiang Xilin also said these?
Chen Congyu didn't hesitate much and said, "Yes, I've been back for a few months."
"It's just right, you two can live a good life now. It's not good for a couple to live too far apart."
