"Brother Pei?"
Seeing the man walking in with Jiang Zheng, Jiang Li happily stood up and walked forward, throwing himself into the other's arms.
Fu Xipei hugged Jiang Li and touched her soft hair.
He lowered his head and looked at Jiang Li, "It's only been a few years since we last met, and our Lili is already a grown-up girl?"
Fu Xipei is Jiang Li's cousin, four years younger than Jiang Zheng, and also Wei Tang's nephew.
Of course, he is not the closest relative, he is the son of Wei Tang’s cousin.
They are also real cousins.
After all, they are from the same family.
My cousin, Fu Xipei's mother, passed away when Fu Xipei was in junior high school.
As a result, less than half a month after his cousin aunt passed away from breast cancer, Fu Xipei had a stepmother.
Although the Fu family had made great efforts, the man still made people feel disgusted.
Fu Xipei was young at the time and didn't know how to hide his emotions in front of his own father. The father and son had a big fight in front of that woman.
Afterwards, he was kicked out of the house by his father in anger, and Fu Xipei took the little pocket money and traveled across two provinces to come to the Jiang family to find Wei Tang.
After learning about what happened in the Fu family, Wei Tang immediately decided to let Fu Xipei live in the Jiang family and also helped him transfer schools.
Today, Fu Xipei has achieved success in both family and career.
In addition to being an executive in a company, he also married a top university classmate who returned to China six years ago. Now their daughter has just turned three years old.
As for the Fu family, Jiang Li really didn't pay any attention to it and didn't ask about it.
Occasionally when I was with my elder brother, I would hear a few words from him.
It seemed like he had twin half-siblings, but the Fu family was not a wealthy one. Until Fu Xipei became successful, he tried to repair the relationship between father and son, but Fu Xipei never paid any attention to him.
Even at the wedding, Wei Tang was invited to be the guest of honor, and the Fu family was not even notified.
He hates everyone in the Fu family.
My mother had just passed away, and except for the seventh day, everyone was busy arranging that man's marriage.
Don't say any other polite words. If he had insisted, it would be impossible for him to get a marriage certificate and remarry just half a month after his wife passed away.
So disgusting.
Jiang Zheng smiled and said, "She must be an older girl, no matter how old she is."
The three of them came into the house chatting and laughing, and Tao Xue also came over with some prepared cakes and tea.
Put it down quietly and leave quietly.
"Brother Pei, are you planning to stay in the country?" Jiang Li asked.
A few years ago, Fu Xipei was transferred overseas, and I haven't seen him for several years.
On the one hand it’s because of the time difference, and on the other hand it’s because of the busy work.
As one of the company's top leaders, he is not idle.
Even busier than most people.
There is no distinction between working and off-get off work. Even after get off work, work emails still need to be dealt with. Even if you are sleeping soundly, the phone will keep ringing.
Fu Xipei said: "Well, I'm back this time and I won't leave again in the short term."
He had just returned to China and had a week's vacation. After settling his wife and daughter, he ran to the Jiang family.
Seeing her eating and drinking at home on weekdays, Fu Xipei was really envious.
He works at least 80 to 90 hours a week, and the most in a week is 119 hours, which even a strong body cannot bear.
There's no other way. The company gives a lot, including money and shares. I'll just earn more while I'm still healthy.
"You're too idle, aren't you? Doesn't the company care?"
My cousins have special jobs and definitely cannot take over the company. In the end, such a huge enterprise of the Jiang family will only fall into the hands of Jiang Li.
Jiang Li smiled and said, "I have Uncle Gao, he is very capable."
Hearing her say this, Fu Xipei really had no temper.
"Brother Chuan's ability is indeed beyond reproach."
"Where's my sister-in-law?" Jiang Li asked, "Did she go back to her parents' home?"
"Yeah." Fu Xipei said, "You've been with me abroad for over a month, and I've been missing my daughter for a long time. I'll ask you to go out and get together in a couple of days."
After having a meal here, Fu Xipei said goodbye and went back.
I have a dinner party at my parents-in-law's house in the evening, and the one-way trip will take three or four hours, assuming there is no traffic jam, so I need to arrive early.
"Brother, what's the situation at the Fu family?" After everyone left, Jiang Li took his eldest brother's arm and went home.
Jiang Zheng said: "It's still the same, neither good nor bad."
It's nothing more than that he is thinking about Fu Xipei now, and wants to gain some benefits from him.
Not only the stepmother, but even Fu Xipei's biological father had many thoughts.
Unfortunately, the family is unable to control their son now.
The two younger ones seemed to want to get closer to their older brother, but unfortunately Fu Xipei didn't respond and even rejected them outright.
Now, only the minimum standard of alimony is sent every month. Even though some relatives of the Fu family have complained a lot, it has no effect on Fu Xipei.
It's just impotent rage, who cares.
After hearing Fu Xipei's attitude, Jiang Li felt relieved.

A night of rain circulated the air in the city.
Open the window, and a fresh and moist air blows towards you...
"It's getting colder."
She looked downstairs and saw Mrs. Wu in the yard had already put on thick clothes and was heading to the kitchen in the wing room.
"Mrs. Wu, good morning."
Mrs. Wu looked up at the sound and saw Jiang Li. She smiled and said, "The temperature has dropped. Put on some clothes."
"knew."
Jiang Li is not afraid of the cold, but when he saw Lu Shen coming in from outside, he realized that this kid is really resistant to cold.
"It's December, the temperature has dropped to single digits, and you're still wearing your boat socks?"
Looking down at the boy with his snow-white ankle exposed, Jiang Li couldn't help but complain.
Lu Shen said: "Aunt, grace, do you understand grace?"
It’s the age to love beauty...
Unfortunately, as soon as the aunt and nephew met in the living room, Lu Shen was held down by his aunt.
"I told you to be graceful. Your ankles are frozen red, and you're still being graceful." She pressed Lu Shen's head, not allowing him to dodge. "Go back and change, and put on your warm pants."
Jiang Li said: "If you go out like this and get seen by others, no one will think you are handsome. They will just think you are a stupid kid. Are you stupid?"
Lu Shen: “…”
No, he is just a handsome guy. Auntie, please don’t spread rumors.
No matter what I thought, I still went back and changed it.
In order to cover up the socks, he even replaced his sneakers with Martin boots.
After a simple breakfast, Jiang Li prepared to send Lu Shen to school and go out to meet a friend.
However, not far from the school gate, the rain started falling again.
Lu Shen: “…”
Jiang Li took out an umbrella from the storage box and handed it to him. "It depends on the situation in the afternoon. It's possible that your uncle will come to pick you up."
Lu Shen said, "Tell my uncle to be careful about the impact and not drive a car that shouldn't be driven here."
Jiang Li curled his lips, "He's more thoughtful than you think. Okay, go in."
Watching the young man go in, Jiang Li redirected the car and it slowly disappeared in the rain.
Her destination was a mental hospital at the junction of the old and new city areas of the imperial city.
