"grandfather."
Found my grandfather who is almost a hundred years old.
The old man does nothing else now. He just stays at home all day practicing martial arts, fiddling with flowers and plants, and playing chess.
Life is easy and comfortable.
His grandmother passed away a few years ago, the year Jiang Cheng was about to graduate.
Seeing his little grandson, Jiang Jinghuan greeted him with a smile.
"Dudu is back. When?"
"I came back at the same time as my parents." Jiang Cheng stepped forward and helped his grandfather sit down.
Not to mention, even at such an old age, the old man is still in good health.
According to his family doctor, it is still possible for him to live to be 110 or 120 years old.
"You know..."
"Grandpa!" Little girl Xuxu ran over and threw herself into the old man's arms.
Jiang Jinghuan picked up his granddaughter with a smile, "What's wrong? What do you know?"
Jiang Cheng was speechless.
What else can I know?
Everyone in my family knew about it, but I was kept in the dark. Now it’s confirmed.
"Xu Xu, brother hold you, let grandpa rest for a while."
Jiang Xuxu stretched out his arms towards his brother and was carried away obediently.
Holding his sister in his arms, Jiang Cheng felt as if his heart was about to melt.
How could his sister be so cute?
I hate my parents for keeping this secret from him for so long.
Jiang Jinghuan chuckled and said, "You're busy with your studies. Knowing that you have a younger sister, you probably have to come back from time to time."
Jiang Cheng thought about it and nodded, "Don't say it, it must be like this."
"But……"
He looked at his grandfather righteously, "I'm your grandson. I have a high IQ, so even if the workload is heavy, it's no problem for me. I've already got a double degree. I also got the honor ribbon..."
He muttered to himself, then suddenly said, "Grandpa, I've become the heir to our family. You have to inform me about this."
It's so confusing...
"Your mother was like that back then." Jiang Jinghuan said without any guilt, "Accept it well."
The subtext was very straightforward: you, my little grandson, are the one who is always causing trouble.
Jiang Cheng felt choked and angry.

When I returned to the next yard, Jiang Li had already returned.
Seeing them as brother and sister, he smiled and said, "They are indeed brother and sister."
There was no barrier when we met for the first time.
"Mom, do you feel a sense of accomplishment by hiding it from me?" Jiang Cheng asked helplessly.
Xuxu in his arms covered his little mouth and laughed non-stop.
Jiang Li shrugged.
"If you want a beating, just say so."
"Mom, I won't hit you." Jiang Xuxu hooked her arm around her brother's neck.
Jiang Li: "...You two are amazing."
Jiang Cheng scored a goal and carried his sister back to the house.
"What's for dinner?"
Jiang Xuxu echoed, "What to eat?"
Auntie brought out the food with a smile, "There's beef in sour soup that you two like."
The brother and sister cheered and sat down.
"Mom and Dad, it's time to eat." Jiang Cheng greeted them without picking up his chopsticks.
According to the rules of their family, the elders must pick up the chopsticks first before the younger ones can move.
When they eat at home, they don't talk while eating in private. If there are other elders sitting there, you have to eat obediently unless they ask you questions.
Some people may think these rules are unnecessary.
However, the children of the Jiang family have been taught this way since childhood, and have long since integrated these rules into their lives and habits, and do not feel any sense of restraint at all.
As easy as breathing and drinking water.
"Where's Qiao Wu?" Jiang Li asked
"She's home. She just came back from here. She has to meet her parents first, right?"
Both of them were picked up by their family drivers and did not take the same car back.
Otherwise, no matter who is sent first, it will take some time, which is unnecessary.
Jiang Li said, "You should each make your own arrangements. You and your father should go to the company to adjust. As for Qiao Wu, have you found a job location? Now that everything is settled, it's time for you two to discuss your marriage."
This is not a secret. The two parties had discussed it with each other a long time ago.
The children have known each other for so many years and everything has gone smoothly, so getting married is a natural and smooth process.
And each of them is satisfied with the partner they choose.
The Qiao family doesn't want a dowry.
But the Jiang family had no choice but to give it.
As for what to give, it depends on Qiao Wu’s needs.
Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Wait a little longer. Qiao Wu is looking for someone. It would be best if she could stay in the Imperial City. If not, she would also like to arrange for someone to stay near the Imperial City."
Qiao Wu's parents have now gone to the man's side because of job transfers.
Not surprisingly, after retirement, he might return to the Imperial City to retire and try to be closer to his daughter.
After all, she is an only child.
"Let her consider her career prospects first, rather than her post-marriage settlement with you."
Jiang Li said: "Understand the importance of this matter."
"Master, there's no need for you to stay in the Jiang family every day. This is just a stabilizer."
Jiang Cheng's eyes lit up, "Then I understand."
In that case...
"It doesn't matter to me. Even if I don't need to stay at the old house every day, I will need to take over the company sooner or later. Even if I hand it over to my sister, it will take at least twenty years."
He didn't have the nerve to ask his father to work for a few more years.
After all, his parents had long wanted to embark on a journey around the world.

"It's arranged." Qiao Wu and Jiang Cheng met. "It's at Aunt Jiang Tan's place, but they're not in the same unit."
Hearing this, Jiang Cheng said seriously, "Did you make this decision after careful consideration? Qiao Wu, no matter which place you choose, I will support you. Besides, transportation is convenient nowadays, and I can guarantee that we can see each other at least once a week."
Jiang Cheng spoke sincerely, and Qiao Wu was moved.
"Of course. Don't think it's easy to get a job at Aunt Jiang Tan's place. It's very difficult. I was able to successfully get the job, but I had to go through many hurdles and cut through many obstacles."
She was very lucky to be a scientific researcher appointed in the Imperial City.
"Uncle is not here, let's meet up with Auntie sometime and have a meal."
While Qiao's father was in office, Qiao's mother returned to the imperial city alone because her daughter had returned.
The two returned on the same flight.
The destination is the Imperial City.
"Tomorrow night? I booked a flight for the day after tomorrow at noon."
Qiao Wu said, "I'll start work next Monday. I'll go home and spend two days with my parents."
"Okay!" Jiang Cheng naturally had no objection, "I'll wait for you in the Imperial City."
"By the way..." He held Qiao Wu's hand, "Now that you've secured your job, we should discuss getting engaged and married."
Seeing her blushing cheeks, Jiang Cheng felt a little embarrassed.
"Whatever betrothal gift you want, just tell me. Money doesn't count. Other things, what are you lacking?"
Qiao Wu understands Jiang Cheng.
Now that you said it, it means you really want to give it to me, and it’s not just a test.
"You said you'd give me money. With the money I can buy anything myself."
"What I give you is yours, and what I buy is mine. They're different." Jiang Cheng corrected, "You don't like clothes, bags, and jewelry like that. You only have a small craving for food occasionally, and this doesn't cost much..."
Listening to his chatter, the love in Qiao Wu's eyes continued to gather and almost overflowed.
"Actually..." She looked at Jiang Cheng with a smile, "To be honest, as long as I can be with you, as long as we always love each other, I don't care about anything else."
