What Jiang's father didn't say was that Jiang Lan, like her aunt, was a bit selfish.
After the elderly couple finished soaking their feet, Granny Xing poured out the water, and that was the end of her chores for the day.
The elderly couple returned to their room, and Jiang's mother told them about Doctor Chu's upcoming betrothal visit.
"Come on, once the betrothal gifts are presented, the marriage is officially settled. Before the wedding, the two of you can meet again and get to know each other better."
"Yes, and there's also the young lady from the Chu family. Jiang Qi can also cultivate a good relationship with her."
Jiang's father also realized that compared to Jiang Qi's happiness, some formalities were not so important.
"Shuheng's father, where should we put Qiqi's betrothal gifts?"
"Where should we put it? Of course, we should put it at Shuyun's house. Her household registration is with Shuyun, and she will marry from Shuyun's house."

Jiang's mother counted the money in her hand and realized that she really didn't have much.
Although her medical expenses were supposed to be split equally among her three sons, Shuheng and the others had limited funds, so they ended up having to subsidize the costs.
Fortunately, the income from the family's farmland was all collected by themselves; otherwise, they really wouldn't have been able to make ends meet.
It was late at night, and Jiang's parents had finished talking about what needed to be done, so they prepared to go to sleep.
Perhaps because she had soaked her feet, or perhaps because she was back in a familiar place, Jiang's mother slept very comfortably.
