In the past, things like child brides might not have been considered a big deal.
Some families even feel more at ease if a girl they have personally raised marries their son.
But in modern times, especially for a family like the Jiang family, it would be extremely shameful to tell others about the child bride.
It’s not like no one wants the grandson of the Jiang family, but they still insist on raising a daughter-in-law themselves since childhood.
Not to mention that Lu Xuexi is her great-grandniece from her mother's side, and strictly speaking, she is a distant relative of the Jiang family.
Old Mrs. Jiang favors Lu Xuexi and truly treats her as her own granddaughter.
Because of this, she could not accept that the child she treated as her own granddaughter had such an inappropriate behavior towards her own grandson.
Not to mention, this was with two grandchildren at the same time!
If it had been before, when Jiang Huai said that Jiang Han liked Lu Xuexi, the old lady would never have believed it.
But having seen with her own eyes how intimate Jiang Cheng and Lu Xuexi were in private, the old lady believed it without hesitation even though there was no evidence against Jiang Han's accusations.
As for Jiang Han, the accused...he didn't know he was being accused.
There was no way the old lady would talk about such an embarrassing thing.
This is also the reason why Jiang Huai wanted to tell the old lady in private.
In private, he has the final say on everything.
As for Jiang Han's innocence...
He had been rude to Xuxu so many times before, so what's wrong with him, as an older brother, slandering his younger brother's innocence?
Jiang Yucheng silently admired the effect of his son's ultimate move, and then he spoke slowly,
"Since mom doesn't object, then this matter is settled."
At the end, he turned around and asked Mr. Jiang, "Dad, what do you think?"
"Just do as you wish. I'm old and can't control you."
As Mr. Jiang spoke, he stood up with a relaxed look, as if he was retired and couldn't take care of things, but... who would believe it?
As soon as Lu Xuexi saw Old Lady Jiang's attitude, she realized that she couldn't stay.
Countless thoughts surged in her heart, but she finally suppressed them forcefully.
She put on an expression of attachment but willing to accept it without any entanglement, which made Jiang Yuxin and Jiang Yutong's couple feel more favorable towards her.
Jiang Han also had mixed feelings. Seeing Lu Xuexi trying to push the old lady upstairs, he hurried forward.
"I'll go with you."
Perhaps it was because of the worried look in her eyes when she was hit by the news of her parents’ divorce, or perhaps it was because they were both stranded in the world tonight, Jiang Han really wanted to talk to Lu Xuexi, just like they used to.
Jiang Han thought it was normal, but he didn't know that his action just touched the old lady's sore spot.
Mrs. Jiang's face changed drastically, and she said to Jiang Han in a deep and urgent voice,
"I don't need you! Go back to your room!"
After saying this, seeing Jiang Han looking stunned, he thought that he would become a child from a divorced family after tonight, and he felt a little annoyed. He could only make up for it.
"You must be exhausted tonight. You don't need to accompany me. Go back to your room and rest. Xuexi will stay here with me."
Although Jiang Han was confused by the old lady's attitude, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when he thought of his parents. He nodded and didn't come any closer.
However, he didn't know that in the eyes of the old lady, his behavior meant that he was disappointed because he couldn't be alone with Lu Xuexi.
Old Mrs. Jiang was even more certain that Jiang Huai had not lied to her. After thinking about it carefully, Jiang Han had said before that he had done very well in the college entrance examination and could obviously have gone to Peking University. However, he ended up choosing Ocean University, which was recommended by Xue Xi. Wasn't he going there just for Xue Xi?
Thinking of this, he felt even more annoyed that he hadn't discovered it earlier. His eldest grandson was careful and decisive, worthy of being the eldest grandson in their family.
At the same time, Old Mrs. Jiang made up her mind in her heart.
From today on, she must keep a close eye on Xuexi and not let her have any private contact with her two grandsons.
Even if you come to visit her at home in the future, don't visit her too often, so as to avoid running into her two grandsons again.
Fortunately, Jiang Cheng has been sent to a company in another city. Before, she felt sorry for her grandson and wanted the eldest brother to let him come back as a token of his appreciation, but now she has decided to let him stay in the company in another city for a while.
Old Mrs. Jiang firmly believed that the love between her two grandsons was due to the fact that they spent day and night together. As the distance between them widened, their feelings faded.
She could guarantee it at home, but Jiang Cheng and the old lady at Xuexi University didn't know how to do it for the time being.
After thinking about it, he decided to let his eldest grandson figure out a solution.
He is smart.
In my heart, I can't help but feel that Xuexi is really out of line. Even if we grew up in the same family, we can't be without a sense of boundaries...
As Lu Xuexi was accompanying Old Lady Jiang back home, the system's reports kept repeating in her mind.
[Old Lady Jiang's favorability value +1, current favorability value 92, host, please keep up the good work. ]
[Mrs. Jiang's favorability value -2, current favorability value 90, please stabilize it in time. ]
【Mrs. Jiang...】
Lu Xuexi thought that this old lady might be crazy.
What did Jiang Huai tell her? !
However, this old woman is useless for being swayed so easily.
As expected, I shouldn't have placed all my hopes on this old woman.
…
The next morning, just as Jiang Huai said yesterday, the Lu family came early to pick them up.
The ones who came were Lu Xuexi's parents. Lu's father's father was Old Lady Jiang's cousin. The Lu family's business had begun to decline by Lu's father's generation. In addition, Lu's father himself had no business talent, and he had been losing money every year since he took over the family business.
The Lu family can be considered a wealthy family, but their financial resources are actually very limited.
Therefore, Lu's father and mother secretly did not want Xuexi to go back.
