When Jiang Jun heard Ye Qingyin sigh, he couldn't help but turn his head to take a closer look at her. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have seen this look of wanting to give up but having unfulfilled ambitions somewhere before.
Ye Qingyin turned around: "Hmm?"
Jiang Yun blurted out, "Mom, Yuanwu looks like you!"
Ye Qingyin's face immediately lit up with pride. "Did you just discover this? When Wu was little, his dad took him out to play, and I wasn't even with him. Everyone was like, 'Wow, this kid looks just like his mom!' Wu's features are like mine. He's always been clean and tidy, good at studying, and that! temperament! He's never been like other boys, acting up and being naughty. People always praise him wherever he goes."
A mother admires her children and is intoxicated by them, with a touch of show-off and narcissism, which was the most common phenomenon in Jiang Yun's original time and space.
She suddenly felt a little jealous of Chen Yuanwu!
He is excellent because he is spoiled. He is not like other children who are loved by their parents because of their excellence. And she is not like her who cannot get Jiang Yuan's attention no matter how excellent she is!
That’s not fair!
Ye Qingyin was completely unaware, still immersed in her memories: "Wu, he's always been talented. He can play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting quickly. I found many teachers to teach him! Have you ever read Wu's articles? He's so talented. When he was in middle school, he submitted his articles to a newspaper and they wanted to hire him. But when they met him, they realized he was still a child!"
The more she spoke, the more obvious the maternal glow on Ye Qingyin's face became, and the brighter her smile became.
Jiang Jun felt like she was listening to someone else's story. "Mom, I've seen the news release written by Yuanwu."
It's quite standard, concise and to the point, I don't see anything special about it!
Ye Qingyin looked at Jiang Jun in disbelief. "How can you compare a news release with an essay? They're completely different genres!"
Jiang Jun secretly stuck out her tongue. Well, writing lyrical things was her weak point. She herself did not like those lingering and romantic words.
Ye Qingyin turned her head to look at the thin ice on the surface of Neihu Lake. "Jiang, you like reading and can play the piano, which is a good thing. Slowly learn more from Yuanwu, and you will learn more. In the future, when you deal with Director Wang and others, you will have something to talk about."
It turned out that Ye Qingyin went through so much trouble just to prove that it was Chen Yuanwu's strengths that inspired and infected Jiang Jun.
Jiang Jun widened his eyes slightly and thought, so, all my knowledge is due to Chen Yuanwu?
Ye Qingyin sighed softly: "Jiang, you are a smart child. Don't worry about what people say about handsome men and beautiful women. A woman with knowledge and culture is naturally elegant. Only a girl with temperament and ability can raise a good child."
It sounds like every word Ye Qingyin says is praising Jiang Jun and is for Jiang Jun's own good, but if you think about it carefully, every word is praising herself!
Jiang Jun has learned something new!
The good impression that had just arisen began to slowly dissipate.
Ye Qingyin was particularly sensitive to the mood swings of her subordinates, and she didn't miss any subtle changes in Jiang Yun's expression: "Jiang, girls, you must be humble, reserved, and tolerant. Only in this way can you appear magnanimous and maintain a good family!"
Jiang Yun wanted to laugh.
For Chen Yuanwu's sake, fine, you have the right to lecture me, but I have the right not to accept or follow through. "Mom, I get it! I understand what you mean. Family needs to be protected, and the workplace is a big family, so the same applies. From now on, I will pay attention to how I get along with my colleagues."
It is useless to reason with your mother-in-law. When she is right, you will be criticized by her. When she is wrong, she will act like an elder and teach you a lesson, but you still have to listen to her criticism.
Jiang Yun wouldn't be stupid enough to step into a minefield.
The best way to get along with Ye Qingyin is to talk about work.
Only at this time, Ye Qingyin's attitude was kind, and her words were truly for her own good, even with a bit of motherly expression.
"Yes, that's right." Ye Qingyin was very satisfied with Jiang Jun's obedience. As long as a child from a wealthy family is taught with a little patience, there is still room for salvation.
Jiang Jun lowered her head and smiled. She was also very satisfied with this distance that was neither too far nor too close, and the care that was neither too light nor too heavy. This was exactly the safe range that she could accept most. Any more would be too much, and any less would be too little.
In her opinion, Ye Qingyin's current attitude is at least much better than her initial reluctant acceptance. When Chen Yuanwu is not around, she can live in peace with Ye Qingyin, instead of being alienated or resistant like in the melodramatic TV dramas.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked home while chatting. They didn't carry anything in their hands. Their topics were in sync, so they arrived home in just a few words.
The nanny was waiting at the door. When she saw Ye Qingyin enter the yard, she hurried forward and said, "Director Ye, Vice President Liang came to wish you a happy new year. I see you are not at home. He is sitting at President Wang's house now."
Ye Qingyin stopped and told Jiang Jun, "Jiang, go to the living room and clean up. Bring out the wedding candies and cakes. I'll bring the guests in. You make tea."
After that, he turned around and went out, knocking on the doorbell of Wang Yuzhen's house.
Jiang Jun heard the lively voices of Wang Yuzhen and Ye Qingyin outside, and hurried back to his room to get out the wedding candy and wedding cakes. When he arrived in the living room, he first stoked the charcoal brazier, moved the peanuts, melon seeds and fried fruits to the corner table next to him, cut the wedding cake into six, cut four and put them in an enamel filigree fruit bowl, and placed it neatly in the middle of the coffee table. He then went to the kitchen to get a few plates and forks and placed them aside.
Just as they had arranged everything, Ye Qingyin pushed the door open and came in, still greeting them: "Secretary Liang, come in and sit down. Jiang, this is Secretary Liang, the leader of our unit. Secretary Liang, this is my eldest daughter-in-law, Jiang."
Seeing the guests coming, Jiang Jun stood beside the sofa and smiled at them: "Secretary Liang, Happy New Year!"
Secretary Liang saw Jiang Jun as soon as he entered the room and was slightly stunned. "Director Ye, this is your daughter-in-law. I would have thought she was your daughter. Now that I look at her, she really does look like Deputy Commander Chen."
A grass mud horse ran through Jiang Yun's mind: It's New Year's Day, is this a blessing for lovers to become siblings?
She tried her best to keep smiling, thinking, what kind of look is that? Chen Jiarao and I don’t have the same facial features, how different are we? She nodded politely: "Mom, I'll go make tea."
Ye Qingyin smiled and offered her seat to Secretary Liang: "Director Wang is the same. Jiang and our Wu have very similar smiles. They look like a perfect couple!"
Secretary Liang smiled and said, "Oh, you've already been to Director Wang's house?"
Ye Qingyin: "Jiang Ming had to go to work, so Director Wang asked us to go over early this morning to talk. So, I was thinking about you coming over, so I hurried back, right?"
