Chapter 1211: The Boys’ Astonishment

Chi Shuyan had just woken up, and under the enthusiastic attention of Jiang Duo and the other boys, she could only agree.

She had nothing to do tonight anyway, so she would deal with the matter of moving out tomorrow.

Of course, she had long figured out that Jiang Duo was Jiang Xiaoduo. The Jiang family had bought a lot of good stuff from her online shop, so they should know about her. However, she didn’t like to be high-profile. Before she went, she made Jiang Duo agree not to tell the Jiang family that she was the owner of the online shop.

Of course, even if the Jiang family knew that she was the owner of the online shop and treated her warmly, she wouldn’t give them a discount, let alone pull strings for them.

Hearing Master Chi’s condition, Jiang Duo couldn’t help but grin happily as he immediately agreed. Nevertheless he thought to himself that while Master Chi didn’t like to be high-profile, he could flaunt her identity to his family after she had dinner and left his house.

When his grandfather and parents found out later that he had invited the owner of that miracle shop over, they would be so excited and would praise him.

His father might even give him more pocket money.

Thinking this, Jiang Duo was elated and got even more excited.

Jiang Duo was so excited because Master Chi would be going to his house. He could dismiss his pals, but he absolutely couldn’t dismiss Master Chi. There was still an hour and a half to go before they returned to the capital. Jiang Duo immediately called his mother and said that a distinguished guest and his pals were coming over for dinner today, and told his mother to prepare things properly.

Mother Jiang listened to and doted on her son. However, when she heard him say “distinguished guest,” she wanted to laugh and didn’t take it seriously. She just thought that it was her son’s friends who were coming over, and she said indulgently and cheerfully, “Okay, son. Is it Ningjin, Ah Hao and the others who are coming over? I’ll cook all the things that all of them like.”

Xiao Ningjin, Wei Panyang, Chang Hao and Xiong Luoying had also gone to the Jiang residence a few times in the past. They knew that Mother Jiang was a very cordial person, but Father Jiang was a little serious, and they felt diffident every time they looked at him.

No matter how delicious Mother Jiang’s food was, they couldn’t stand Father Jiang’s stern gaze, so they stopped going as often to Jiang Duo’s house.

The boys were happy and moved when they heard that Mother Jiang still remembered their favorite dishes.

......

Compared with his friends who were moved and happy, Jiang Duo wasn’t as happy. After all, he had to treat Master Chi well this time. It was just that he couldn’t even name a dish that Master Chi liked.

Jiang Duo couldn’t help but ask a few questions. Chi Shuyan wasn’t picky and said that she would eat anything, so there was no need to be so polite.

In the end, Jiang Duo could only give up. In any case, he told his mother to cook as many of her signature dishes as she could. Perhaps something Master Chi liked would be among the extra dishes. If his mother was too busy, he would go home and help.

The corners of Chi Shuyan’s mouth twitched fiercely when she heard Jiang Duo tell Mother Jiang to cook as many dishes as possible. She took the phone from Jiang Duo and said to Mother Jiang that there was no need to cook extra, and that what she normally cooked was fine. After saying that, she thanked Mother Jiang very politely.

Mother Jiang’s eyes widened when she heard a young lady’s voice. Wait, her son wasn’t bringing a girlfriend back, was he?

Hearing this young lady’s gentle and polite words, Mother Jiang was very satisfied. She agreed, but made up her mind to cook more sumptuous dishes. What if this young lady really was her son’s girlfriend?

Of course, it would be fine if it wasn’t.

Mother Jiang was still very level-headed.

After hanging up, she started making preparations with the housekeeper.

Not long after, Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang came back one after another. Grandpa Jiang had come back from a walk around the square after finishing his dinner. He didn’t find any friends, so he simply came back.

Father Jiang had eaten dinner outside and had just come back from a busy day at the company.

When they came back, Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang smelled the aroma of food at home and were a bit puzzled. Hadn’t they already eaten dinner? Why was Mother Jiang still busy in the kitchen?

At that moment, Mother Jiang came out of the kitchen. When she saw Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang, she told them about her son bringing guests home today for a meal. Mother Jiang said happily, “Old Master, Old Jiang, he might be bringing my daughter-in-law back tonight! I heard the girl’s voice just now. She sounded so gentle and polite! Maybe Ah Duo will be more sensible in the future!”

Mother Jiang’s words shocked Grandpa Jiang and Father Jiang. Of course, Grandpa Jiang was quite happy that his precious grandson was bringing a granddaughter-in-law back so early. Father Jiang wondered if his son had gone to pick up girls after not coming home lately.

Thinking this, Father Jiang’s face was very serious.

Mother Jiang looked at her husband’s serious expression and couldn’t help but start to worry. Grandpa Jiang sat happily on the sofa and praised his grandson. “Very good! Very good! What Ah Rou said is right. With a granddaughter-in-law, my precious grandson will definitely become more sensible in the future. By the way, daughter-in-law, have you seen the mirror which I put on the table before?”

Ever since Grandpa Jiang’s health improved, his hair had started to turn black and he looked much younger. He now liked to look at his black hair in the mirror very much. Every time he looked at it, he was happy.

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang also knew about the old man’s habit, but when Father Jiang heard his words, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely. If it were his son, Father Jiang would have cursed, “Why is a man like you looking in the mirror every day?” However, the person in front of him was his father. Father Jiang only dared to twitch his lips, and didn’t say a word.

Mother Jiang was happy for the old man and immediately went to look for the mirror for him.

When Grandpa Jiang looked at his black, increasingly thick hair in the mirror, he was pleased. It just so happened that his ‘granddaughter-in-law’ was coming this time. He couldn’t embarrass his grandson.

Father Jiang sat in the living room with a black face as he waited for his son to bring his ‘girlfriend’ back.

Because of the traffic jam, Chi Shuyan, Jiang Duo and the others only arrived at the Jiang residence at almost 8pm.

When the group arrived, the dishes were already prepared, and Mother Jiang had the housekeeper heat them up.

Hearing the sound of a car, Grandpa Jiang and Mother Jiang immediately went out. Sure enough, they saw Ah Duo’s friends. When they saw a beautiful and elegant young lady among the boys, Mother Jiang and Grandpa Jiang’s eyes lit up like light bulbs.

Grandpa Jiang in particular was very pleased with the young lady whom his grandson had brought with him this time. The more he looked at her, the more pleased he was. Not only was she beautiful, she also had a good temperament. Grandpa Jiang secretly observed the young lady’s actions; when she noticed him and Ah Duo’s mother, her reaction was calm and unhurried. She was especially generous and polite as she took the initiative to greet them.

At the thought that this young lady might be the granddaughter-in-law his grandson had found, the corners of Grandpa Jiang’s mouth almost reached his ears.

Mother Jiang was also happy.

Xiao Ningjin, Chang Hao, Wei Panyang and Xiong Luoying took the initiative to greet Grandpa Jiang and Mother Jiang.

Mother Jiang said enthusiastically, “It’s good that everyone is here! It’s almost time for dinner. Are you guys hungry?”

At that point, Mother Jiang immediately said to Jiang Duo, “Ah Duo, hurry and bring everyone inside.”

As for Mother Jiang, she walked over to the young lady and warmly welcomed her in.

When Grandpa Jiang entered, he looked at the young lady from time to time. The light outside had been a little dim, so when they entered the living room, he was even more pleased and happy when he got a good look at her appearance and behavior.

Xiao Ningjin, Chang Hao, Xiong Luoying and Wei Panyang’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets when they saw Old Master Jiang’s black hair and face, which looked many years younger.

Speaking of which, when Old Master Jiang first fell sick and it wasn’t that serious, the boys had all come to the Jiang residence to see him. Later, when Old Master Jiang’s condition worsened, it wasn’t that they didn’t want to come and see him, but Father Jiang had never liked them. In addition, Ah Duo didn’t have a good relationship with Father Jiang, so they didn’t dare drop by the Jiang residence so casually.

They had heard from Ah Duo that Old Master Jiang was seriously ill, but his complexion now was simply incomparable with when he had been sick.

His face alone looked ten years younger, and he had much fewer wrinkles. This wasn’t an exaggeration; he was genuinely much younger.

He even looked much younger than Wei Panyang’s grandfather, who was eight years younger than Old Master Jiang.

Looking at Old Master Jiang now, Xiao Ningjin and the others felt that he could be younger than Old Master Wei.

Damn, what kind of miracle medicine did Jiang Duo give Old Master Jiang?

Wei Panyang couldn’t help but blurt out, “Old Master Jiang, why do I suddenly feel that you look younger than my grandfather?”
