"Grandma, it's windy outside. Why don't you wait inside?" Lu Sisi stood by the old lady's side, holding her arm.
The wind was so light it couldn't even rustle the leaves on the ground, let alone make someone catch a cold.
The old lady disliked being touched by others. "If you think it's windy, you go back. The butler is here to accompany me."
She had taken the butler's place and seemed to want her to leave. Unfortunately, she had underestimated the old lady's affection for Jiang Ziyu.
"They say the old are frail. I'm just worried that if you stand for too long and the wind blows, you'll feel uncomfortable sleeping tonight," Lu Sisi explained.
A car was approaching the corner ahead. The old lady raised her hand to signal, "See if it's Mingjue's car."
The butler walked forward, looked up, and scanned the approaching vehicle. He nodded and replied, "It's Young Master Mingjue's car."
Seeing that the person had arrived, the old lady immediately leaned on her cane and walked forward.
The car stopped at the entrance of the Di residence. Shen Lin got out first, followed by him assisting Jiang Ziyu and Di Mingjue out of the car.
Jiang Ziyu could walk normally, but Di Mingjue insisted she also sit in a wheelchair. His stated reason was that he was afraid she might reopen her wound if she moved around. In reality, he just wanted her to be like him, even bizarrely calling them matching couple wheelchairs.
However, once she was in it, it did indeed save her a lot of trouble. Just like at this moment, the old lady came forward with concern.
"You've suffered!" The old lady touched Jiang Ziyu's face, murmuring, "You've lost weight, and your complexion isn't as good as before."
Lost weight?
Jiang Ziyu touched her waist. Honestly, she felt she had gained quite a bit of weight during this period.
"Grandma, let's go inside first." Lu Sisi stepped forward and pulled her arm, trying to lead her away.
Under the inertia, Jiang Ziyu looked at her with a peculiar gaze.
The old lady, pulled by Lu Sisi, straightened her back. Heeding her suggestion, the group majestically entered the main hall.
Di Jianhan disliked Jiang Ziyu. Even though she had shielded Di Mingjue from a bullet, he saw it as an attempt to curry favor.
As everyone entered, he remained seated on the sofa, calmly watching the morning news.
"Jianhan," the old lady called out, "Look, this is Mingjue's wife, Jiang Ziyu."
Jiang Ziyu followed the old lady's gaze and observed the man seated on the sofa like a steady mountain.
Genetics were indeed powerful. He looked like an older version of Di Mingjue, even sharing a similar personality.
Lu Sisi felt quite satisfied. The humiliation she endured at the hospital was somewhat balanced at this moment. She deliberately observed Jiang Ziyu's expression, and seeing that she was unaffected, a sense of imbalance arose within her.
"Uncle," she transformed from an invisible presence in the crowd to the center of attention, "Brother Mingjue just returned. You should relax."
A daughter-in-law is an outsider, but a son is family.
In the past few days, Lu Sisi had been chatting with Di Jianhan daily. Because of his trust, Di Jianhan had not hidden any of his thoughts or ideas, giving Lu Sisi an opportunity to show off.
"Mingjue, have you considered what I discussed with you last time?" Di Jianhan asked deliberately.
Seeing the man's unconcealed dislike for her, Jiang Ziyu proactively reduced her presence, not wanting to be dragged into the conflict.
Di Mingjue deliberately held Jiang Ziyu's hand, displaying the rings they had bought when they got married. "Dad, allow me to introduce my wife. Ziyu, this is my father, and your father-in-law."
Should she address him?
She blinked, looking at Di Mingjue to inquire.
Di Mingjue nodded, his thumb pressing into the space between her fingers.
Jiang Ziyu glanced uncertainly at Di Jianhan's expression, feeling a flutter of apprehension.
"No, the daughter-in-law I expect is Sisi. Don't even think about anyone else." Di Jianhan's temper flared, and he completely forgot his effort to remain calm.
