Chapter 501
Xiao Liu did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw how nervous he was. He even found a Chinese tunic suit that he had kept for many years and put it on. It was clear how much he valued Jiang se.
“This outfit fits you very well.”
He touched the clothes and was very happy. He couldn’t wait to show off to Xiao Liu.
when Madam and I first went to Hong Kong, we were penniless. I helped out in the grocery store while she made a living as a tailor.
Feng Zhongliang was not willing to be someone’s helper for the rest of his life. Later on, he studied English and learned to socialize with Hong Kong people. Later on, he was gradually valued by his boss and was promoted again and again. After that, with the bonus given to him by his boss, he initially established Zhongnan hotel, which was also the predecessor of Zhongnan industry.
At that time, he had found his first pot of gold, and old Madam Feng had personally made him this Chinese tunic suit so that he could wear it when he went out to meet people during business meetings.
Later on, as his business grew, the style of his clothes was taken care of by professionals. These old clothes were stored at the bottom of the box with great care.
She didn’t have many chances to wear it, but she couldn’t bear to throw it away when she was old. She put it in his suitcase and followed him back to China from Hong Kong. After so many years, she finally found it and put it on today.
Xiao Liu smoothed out the creases on his clothes. Once again, she reevaluated Jiang SE’s position in his heart. She was now more confident that she could plead with Jiang se to stay behind.
He was still asking the servants if they had returned. He had personally drawn up several menus, and he looked even more cautious than during the new year.
After he was done, he kept checking the time. There were a few times when he wanted to pick up his phone and make a call, but he silently gave up until Jiang se returned with a call.
He couldn’t calm down. He couldn’t focus on the TV in the living room. Mother Wang was busy in the kitchen, and Xiao Liu watched him walk back and forth a few times until his legs felt a little tired.
“Didn’t we talk about the door? Why isn’t he here yet?”
He mumbled to himself, unable to calm down. In the end, he simply took off his coat and picked up the flower trimming scissors.
When Jiang se came over with PEI Yi, Xiao Liu came to pick her up personally.
When he saw Jiang se, he was a little embarrassed. Back then, because of Jiang Zhiyuan, he still had some prejudice and doubts about Jiang se. Now, he had to ask for her help.
She was holding PEI Yi’s hand. She had heard from Feng Zhongliang that Jiang se and PEI Yi had plans to get married.
Just as Feng Zhongliang had said, if Jiang se could marry into the PEI family, his suspicions in the past would only be a measure of a gentleman’s heart.
The PEI family was a truly prestigious family, and the Feng family could not compare to them. Old master Feng was right. He had been thinking too much about some things.
He was a little ashamed and said in a low voice, ”
the old master is in the garden. He has been waiting for you and young master PEI since you returned.
When Feng Zhongliang’s mood was fluctuating too much, he liked to stay in the garden and personally trim the flowers and plants. When Feng Nan moved out, his mood was the worst. Sometimes, he would stay in the garden for the whole day, either cutting the branches of the flowers and trees, or holding a book in a daze. The whole day passed by just like that.
“Miss Jiang,” Xiao Liu lowered his head and clenched his hands in front of his abdomen, with a pleading tone, ”
I misunderstood you before and did some bad things. I reminded the Feng family to be careful of you and made the old man angry. He wants to send me back to Hong Kong, but I’m really worried.
Jiang se stopped in her tracks when she was about to enter the garden. Xiao Liu continued, ”
I want to apologize to you. I don’t dare to ask for your forgiveness, but I hope you can help me plead with the old master for me.
When he spoke, PEI Yi frowned. Xiao Liu did not tell them exactly what bad things he had done. However, Jiang se and PEI Yi were not fools. They could more or less guess what he was thinking. He was just afraid that Jiang se would covet Feng Zhongliang’s assets.
Xiao Liu waited for Jiang SE’s reply after he finished speaking. He had expected Jiang se to be unhappy and had also guessed that she would anger PEI Yi. He was prepared to be reprimanded by the two of them. However, Jiang SE’s reaction in the end was beyond his expectations. She only agreed to his request lightly.
He did not bother to explain or ask for other reasons. The two of them had already gone into the garden to look for Feng Zhongliang. Xiao Liu was still standing in the same place, thinking of his previous actions. After a long while, he smiled and sighed.
Feng Zhongliang was carefully trimming the lunar season’s shoots. This was the time when the lunar season was growing well. Many of the branches were bearing tender green New shoots, and the flower buds were being protected within, trembling.
As usual, Jiang se squatted down to pick up the branches on the ground as soon as she arrived. PEI Yi dragged the bamboo basket that contained the branches over. The two of them had a tacit understanding.
When they arrived, Feng Zhongliang had already noticed the two of them. When he saw that Jiang se was still the same as before, his tensed expression relaxed, and his hands moved even more quickly.
Xiao Liu came out with a cup of tea. After Jiang se washed her hands, PEI Yi personally served a cup of tea and handed it to Feng Zhongliang.
“Grandpa, have a cup of tea.”
The meaning of his cup of tea was different from the previous fawning, and they all knew it.
Jiang SE’s face reddened slightly. Feng Zhongliang took the teacup and looked at the child, who had a respectful expression on his face.
He had watched PEI Yi grow up. Feng Zhongliang could tell how much PEI Yi loved Jiang se. Feng Zhongliang would not have to worry if Jiang se was with him.
“Does old Mr. PEI know about what happened between the two of you?”
Although he was relieved, Feng Zhongliang did not drink the cup of tea.
A handsome young man stood before him. He was like a green bamboo with an outstanding bearing. He was a good match for Jiang se.
“I already know, I told you.”
When he went to Bordeaux, his grandfather already knew what was going on, but he was not satisfied with his eldest grandson’s wedding being held so hastily, so he called him and scolded him, thinking that he was taking it too lightly.
“A promise is a promise, a promise is a promise, they are two different things!” Feng Zhongliang had already been worried before he knew that Jiang se was his biological granddaughter. Now that he knew who she was, he was naturally even more worried that there would be twists and turns in her marriage. It was inevitable that he would ask for more details.
PEI Yi answered in full.
For a prestigious family like the PEI family, the eldest grandson’s wedding was not a small matter. It had to be well planned. The wedding process, guest list, clothes, jewelry, everything had to be carefully planned.
“Grandma wants Sese to work and spend some time with her before the wedding.”
When PEI Yi said this, he looked a little helpless.
However, Feng Zhongliang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. That was the right way.
If the PEI family truly had the intention to accept Jiang se, they should teach her many things about how to receive guests. She should also get to know the relatives and friends of the PEI family. In the future, when PEI Yi took over the PEI family, she would have to get to know many of the subordinates she would visit. She would need old lady PEI to teach her the rules that the Feng family could not teach her.
She could tell that PEI Yi was being sincere. He was not just after her youth and beauty. Sometimes, when he truly liked her, he should not keep her like a pet and treat her like a Canary. He should let her out and let her be a wife who was worthy of him.
“In this case, Sese shouldn’t have mentioned marriage so early.” He rebuked his granddaughter when he recalled the news about ‘Jiang SE’s wedding’.
According to the process, the wedding would probably be in two or three years. It was too early to say.
...
I’m not afraid. I’m just happy that Sese said it out loud. It’ll be good if everyone knows that she’s married to me. Hearing Feng Zhongliang’s scolding, PEI Yi quickly defended his wife.
“Grandpa, please don’t blame her.”
Feng Zhongliang looked at his nervous expression and glared at him. He smiled and said, ”
“Good-for-nothing!”
He was scolded, but he did not mind. Instead, he grinned and pulled Jiang SE’s hand. “I don’t want to be a good-for-nothing, I only want her.”
Feng Zhongliang was speechless. Jiang se allowed PEI Yi to pull her along as she consoled Feng Zhongliang.
don’t worry, Grandpa. The wedding is just a formality. It’s just for show. In my heart, I don’t think ah Yi is the most important.
