Chapter 121: It's come to this, why are you still calling me Aunt Jiang?
Cheng Qian didn't reply to her, so Xia Mengjiao knew that she must be busy and was not in a hurry.
Dinner was ready. Jiang Meng said to Cheng Yan who was sitting on the sofa, "Xiao Yan, go upstairs and ask Zhinan and the others to come down for dinner."
Cheng Yan nodded obediently and went upstairs.
She came to Li Zhinan's bedroom door and knocked.
Li Zhinan opened the door, and Cheng Yan asked him with a look of self-blame: "Brother, is Xiaoye's injury serious?"
Li Zhinan heard her apologizing for this and smiled: "It's okay, don't worry."
"I'm sorry, I have no experience in taking care of children. I won't do it again next time." Cheng Yan felt very guilty.
"It's not a big deal, don't take it to heart." Li Zhinan felt that Cheng Yan blamed herself, which proved that she didn't mean it.
"Let's go downstairs and eat. Dinner is ready." Cheng Yan felt relieved. As long as Li Zhinan didn't blame her, everything would be fine.
Cheng Yan knocked on Xia Mengjiao's door again. Xia Mengjiao, holding the child, squeezed past her, then stood at the stairs and asked, "What's that smell? It's so strong."
Cheng Yan's whole body stiffened.
Li Zhinan happened to come out, and when he heard this, his brows furrowed.
This sister-in-law has always been so straightforward in her words that he doesn't even bother to say anything to her.
Cheng Yan was terribly embarrassed, and the rest of the family couldn't see through her acting.
Apart from the actress Xia Mengjiao, does this sentence mean to call her a mistress and a vixen?
Cheng Yan secretly clenched her fists. Once she became Mrs. Li, Xia Mengjiao's good days would be over.
Downstairs, the old lady sat in the main seat, Li Zhinan sat next to her with his son, and Xia Mengjiao's two children were left to the care of the confinement nanny.
This table looks very harmonious.
The old lady looked up and thought, if only, this was the Li family.
Cheng Yan filled Cheng Qian's position.
Xia Mengjiao was so angry that she couldn't eat. What was going on? Why did everyone think that Cheng Yan, an outsider, had the nerve to sit at this table and act as if she wasn't an outsider?
"Grandma, try this. The pig's trotters have been stewed until they are soft and delicious. They are very tasty." Cheng Yan was already performing, and her performance was very smooth without any trace of acting.
Xia Mengjiao was so angry that she wanted to pinch her philtrum. Even though she graduated from the acting department, she had to admit defeat.
The old lady liked Cheng Yan's care for her very much. She smiled and said, "Xiao Yan, you should eat more too. You are too thin."
Xia Mengjiao immediately said, "Grandma, isn't it better to be thinner?"
The old lady glanced at her and snorted softly, "You're too thin. It's hard for you to give birth. You'll suffer."
Xia Mengjiao's expression changed and she immediately looked at Cheng Yan.
At this moment, Cheng Yan stared at Li Zhinan, who was feeding her son, with her charming eyes.
The old lady talked about having a baby, and she really wanted to have a baby for Li Zhinan.
The last time they were taking a hot spring bath, Cheng Yan discovered that Li Zhinan had good capital. She wondered if it would be more painful than giving birth to a child?
Thinking of this, Cheng Yan blushed and felt that she shouldn't think in that direction.
Xia Mengjiao was so angry that she didn't want to talk anymore, but there was one thing she was clearly aware of.
If Cheng Yan really came into this family, her life would be hopeless.
She must stand on the same front with her sister-in-law and resist the entry of this shameless third party.
After finishing her meal, Cheng Yan said obediently and sensibly that she wanted to leave, as she couldn't disturb her elders' rest.
"Zhi Nan, please take Xiao Yan home. She didn't drive here." Jiang Meng said.
Li Zhinan was stunned for a moment and said, "Mom, I'm not going this way. There are still many cars in the garage. You can ask her to pick one and drive back."
When Cheng Yan heard this, her expression dimmed a little.
Xia Mengjiao was also planning to leave. She smiled and said, "Mom, how about letting Miss Cheng take my car? I'm on my way."
Cheng Yan was stunned, looking reluctant.
Jiang Meng thought of the traces of an argument between the two before dinner, so she said calmly, "No need, Xiaoyan, come with me to the garage."
Cheng Yan immediately glanced at Xia Mengjiao with a victorious expression.
Xia Mengjiao was so depressed. Why couldn't anyone see the viciousness of this third party?
There were ten top luxury brand cars parked in the garage. Cheng Yan was shocked when she saw this.
Xia Mengjiao smiled and said, "These are all Zhinan's collections. Each one is a limited edition. Whichever one you like, just drive away."
"No, no, no, Aunt Jiang, this is too expensive. I... I'm afraid it will be damaged." Cheng Yan was excited inside, but her tone was nervous.
"It's okay. Why are you being so polite to him? Don't forget, you saved his life. It's just a car. Not to mention letting you use it, I'll just give it to you..." Thinking of this, Jiang Meng asked Cheng Yan with a smile, "Then let Zhinan give you a car. Which one do you like? Just tell me and I'll make the decision."
Cheng Yan's breathing was rapid. At this moment, she felt that her blood was full of excitement.
"Aunt Jiang..."
"It's come to this, why are you still calling me Aunt Jiang? Call me something nice and let me hear it." Jiang Meng had a doting expression: "Call me once and I'll give you a car."
Cheng Yan was stunned. The next second, she called out softly, "Mom!"
"Oh, what a good kid." Jiang Meng was very happy. She pointed directly at a sapphire blue sports car and said, "Do you like this car? It's very suitable for girls. Let's give it to you."
As soon as Cheng Yan saw the car, she fell in love with it instantly. It was so beautiful, like a walking sapphire. It was not just a car, it was a work of art.
"Thank you... Mom." At this moment, Cheng Yan already understood the significance of marrying into the Li family. The Li family is rich, but also low-key. However, Cheng Qian doesn't know how to spend the money, so she has to find someone else to spend it.
Just like now, there are so many cars parked in the garage, and Cheng Qian is reluctant to drive any of them out.
What she doesn't do will eventually be done by someone else.
What an idiot.
When Jiang Meng heard her calling "Mom", he asked her to drive away.
Jiang Meng returned to the living room and directly mentioned the idea of giving the car to Cheng Yan.
"Give it to her?" Li Zhinan frowned, "Mom, why didn't you ask for my opinion before making this decision?"
"You already recognize her as your sister, don't you have any gifts?" Jiang Meng looked unhappy: "It's just a car, you are still reluctant to give it away."
"It's not that I'm reluctant, I just hope you'll ask me before making a decision." Li Zhinan said, then stood up: "Just like the decision you made four years ago, you caused Cheng Qian and me so much trouble, proving that your decision was wrong."
Jiang Meng was stunned and immediately became sad: "Without my decision four years ago, how would Xiaoye be here? Who am I doing all this for? Isn't it for Xiaowei? Cheng Qian is a good person, but she is just not suitable for you. Since you think it is a mistake, you can reverse it now."
The old lady was sitting nearby. When she heard these words, she stared at Jiang Meng and said, "So it was you who arranged this. You have such bad taste. Why did you choose such a poor, low-class woman?"
Jiang Meng was also speechless and didn't know what to say.
Li Zhinan said calmly, "Grandma, Cheng Qian is more talented than you know."
The old lady's face changed, and she looked at her eldest grandson in surprise: "Zhi Nan, when did you start speaking up for Cheng Qian? Didn't you always complain that she was not worthy of you?"
Li Zhinan was instantly speechless by these words. He looked down at his son.
Xiao Ye didn't understand what the adults said yet. He blinked and said, "Dad, I want to go find Mom."
Li Zhinan felt a pang of depression and nodded: "Okay, I'll take you there now."
More than an hour later, Li Zhinan brought his sleeping son to the downstairs of the Seed Research Institute.
He looked up at the brightly lit floor and felt very uncomfortable.
Cheng Qian also worked here and worked under him, but he had never come to pick her up so late.
Around half past ten, Cheng Qian carried her bag and walked downstairs with Qiao Silin.
The two were still chatting about the experiment just now, and their expressions showed a hint of relaxation.
Qiao Silin was about to suggest treating Cheng Qian to a midnight snack when he saw a tall figure at the stairs, with a small figure curled up in his arms.
Qiao Silin's words were stuck in his throat, and his expression was full of sarcasm.
Cheng Qian also saw Li Zhinan and his son standing at the bottom of the stairs, and she was startled.
