On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the Kitchen God will be welcomed, and all shops under the Jiang family's name will be auctioned off for half a month.
All registered individuals in the capital city who have no land, no property, and no household registration can eat their fill at any shop under the Jiang family's name.
Those who have household registration but no land or property can enjoy a free, sumptuous meal every day under Jiang's name.
Those who have household registration but are missing one of the two properties (real estate or land) can enjoy a 30% discount at shops under the Jiang family's name.
The land is repaying kindness.
On behalf of Fu Qiyuan and Jiang Huai, we express our gratitude to the people of Beijing for their newfound life.
All of Jiang's employees received year-end bonuses that were equivalent to their entire year's wages.
Jiang Shan didn't say many words of gratitude, only four words: "Sharing joys and sorrows."
That's enough!
When Jiang Huai woke up, he didn't get to eat the pizza and egg tarts he wanted. His mother had also starved him for a day, only giving him a few sips of soup. He felt very wronged.
He only cheered up when the Crown Prince and his wife came to see him with their two sons.
Just as he was complaining to his two brothers about their mother, he let out a loud fart.
Li Huan and Li Yu were stunned for a moment, unsure how to give Jiang Huai a way out, when the little guy excitedly shouted, "Mom! Mom, I farted! Mom, I want pizza! Mom, I farted, I can have pizza now!"
What kind of crazy thing is this? How can farting be compared to eating delicious food?
The two brothers looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Liangchen walked over with a smile and said, "Young master, don't worry, Miss has already prepared everything. There's not only pizza and egg tarts, but also hamburgers!"
Jiang Huai scratched his head with delight and chuckled, "Huai'er knew that Mother loves me the most! Huan-ge, Yu-ge, you're in for a treat! You haven't tried my mother's hamburgers before, have you?"
Amidst the eager anticipation of the three little ones, Jiangshan and Liangchen arrived carrying plates.
Pizza, egg tarts, hamburgers, and fried chicken legs quickly filled the table.
but!
Jianghuai has no place here!
Jiang Huai stared wide-eyed at his mother in disbelief.
Jiang Shan sat down beside Jiang Huai's bed, held his small hand to check its temperature, and asked softly, "Do you know you just had major surgery?"
Jiang Huai hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Do you know that your mother almost lost you and your father? You are still injured. The most important thing right now is to recover, not to indulge in your appetite, understand?"
Jiang Huai opened her mouth slightly and asked hesitantly, "Then, if Huai'er gets hungry, what will she eat?"
He could understand what his mother was saying, but he wanted to eat something delicious!
As if by magic, Jiang Shan brought out a bowl of fragrant, rich soup from a table full of delicious food.
"Huai'er, look, there are shredded chicken in the soup, torn from the chicken leg of a hamburger; there's also tender ham, which is a raw material for making pizza; there's also egg liquid in the soup, these are the strands; there are also more than ten kinds of precious medicinal herbs in the soup, which are the most nourishing for replenishing blood and qi! You can drink the soup first at noon, and then Mom will make meatballs for you for dinner, okay?"
Although Jiang Huai was somewhat reluctant, the soup in front of him was really delicious!
Never mind, let's drink first!
My health is also very important. I need to heal that scar on my body as soon as possible so that my mother can rest assured and I can eat more delicious food in the future!
With that thought in mind, Jiang Huai felt more at ease.
He was enjoying the soup so much that his eyebrows practically danced in the air.
The brothers Li Huan and Li Yu felt a little embarrassed to enjoy these delicacies alone in front of Jiang Huai, so they wanted to eat somewhere else.
Jiang Shan smiled and said, "It's alright, you guys eat. Let him smell the aroma and feast his eyes on it!"
That makes so much sense!
So, while watching the two brothers eat Western food, Jiang Huai silently drank three bowls of nourishing soup.
Once you're full, you won't crave anything anymore!
The Crown Prince and Crown Princess watched from outside, their understanding of the empire being refreshed once again.
The Crown Princess sighed, "Yu'er always talks about Huai'er during meals, so that's why!"
Jiang Shan said dismissively, "That's how kids are. The more you forbid them from eating something, the more they crave it. Once they actually get to eat it, they don't care anymore! They can come over whenever they want to eat something. If it's inconvenient, you can send a palace servant over. It's not a big deal. Don't take it too seriously with the child."
The Crown Prince paused for a moment, then said, "Is this how you usually teach Jiao Xian and Jiang Huai?"
Jiang Shan tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said seriously, “Sanlang and Jiang Huai are different. When Sanlang was in a weak position, I told him to strive for what he wanted, and when he was in a strong position, I told him to know when to hide his talents. Jiang Huai lacks nothing, so I told him to keep a happy heart, not to live too hard, not to let down those around him, and to be worthy of heaven and earth.”
The crown prince said meaningfully, "Don't you hope that he will rise above others and become a person of high status in the future?"
Jiang Shan scoffed and retorted, "May I ask Your Highness, what does it mean to stand out from the crowd? What does it mean to be a superior person? I am a businessman. Do you think I am considered to have stood out from the crowd? Even if Sanlang never takes the imperial examinations or stands in the court, can his talent be hidden? As for my Jiang Huai, hehe, I sincerely hope that he can be more low-key in the future, and not attract so much attention."
The crown prince was speechless, unable to refute the idea of the throne.
He glanced at Jiang Huai again; the little guy was instilling the concept of "surgery" in his two sons.
Listening to the little guy's vivid description of the bloody and exciting scene, and seeing his two silly boys with their mouths agape, the prince's lips twitched, unable to bear watching any longer.
In order not to disturb Jiang Huai's rest, the Crown Prince and his wife took their two sons back to the palace early.
Jiang Huai let out a long sigh and said, "Finally they're gone! Watching them eat made my stomach itch with envy!"
Jiang Shan corrected him from the side: "An itchy stomach isn't from cravings, it's from a wound healing. Don't talk nonsense!"
Jiang Huai turned his head and grinned foolishly at his mother, "Mom, I want to go and keep Dad company. The day Dad and I were treated, I had a dream that Mom didn't want Dad and me anymore. Dad was so sad, and I want to go and keep him company."
Jiang Shan still felt a pang of pain in his heart when he recalled that scene.
She gently patted Jiang Huai's little head and said softly, "Okay, Mom will take you there. But you have to be good and not bother your father."
Jiang Huai was carried to Fu Qiyuan's room. Before going in, he asked again, "Mother, you won't leave me and Father, will you? You won't abandon us, will you?"
Jiang Shan nodded vigorously: "How could that be! How could Mother bear to abandon Huai'er! You are Mother's lifeblood!"
"Then, where's Father? Why don't you sleep with Father? If you don't sleep together, you're not family!"
Jiang Shan staggered, and with great difficulty spoke, "Your mother and father... slept together. How could you have been born if they hadn't slept together? Right?"
The door opened with a creak, and Fu Qiyuan, wearing a fox fur coat, stood smiling in the doorway.
Jiang Huai persisted: "Father, is it true? Did you and Mother sleep together?"
Jiang Shan turned around and left.
