"Yuan Yuan, the meal is on the table. I'm going to leave my mark with my people below and post a link. As long as someone enters the live stream, someone will buy the medicine."
Meng Yuan looked at her, shaking her head. How had Jiang Nuan fallen so low?
Oh, right. She had bought this small villa, and she also had a wellness center. She was certainly wealthier than Meng Yuan.
"Sigh!" Meng Yuan propped her chin with both hands. Why was she so pathetic?
She had almost been scammed out of her entire fortune, and Nuan Nuan was now dirt poor.
Truly, good sisters sharing adversities.
Meng Yuan looked out the window. Should she start planning her own life?
Without love, she still had a career, didn't she?
Investigating the background of Nuan Nuan's scummy father would bring her a considerable reward.
But why was that old man so concerned about Jiang Shuo's background?
Meng Yuan pondered. She still needed to ask Jiang Nuan about this.
Meanwhile, in Jiang Nuan's room, after a quick online stroll where she left her mark and posted the link, announcing the live stream for tomorrow night at nine, she exited the page.
"Nuan Nuan, are you done?"
Jiang Nuan turned to look at her. "What is it?"
Meng Yuan walked in with a smile and asked, "Nuan Nuan, has your grandmother ever told you about your father?"
Jiang Nuan shook her head slightly. "No, why?"
Her grandmother had only taught her diligently; she had never heard her grandmother talk about other matters.
"That old gentleman from before, he wanted me to investigate your father's identity, and I actually did investigate your father's identity... there was nothing unusual?"
Jiang Nuan was also a bit puzzled and said, "When my grandmother was alive, she never lived with them. She always lived alone in that small courtyard. We didn't spend holidays together. I always accompanied my grandmother on holidays. I also asked her why she didn't come back for holidays. She said she was free alone, could eat whatever she wanted, and was happy as long as I accompanied her."
"My grandmother lived a lonely life. Her only friend was my teacher. After my teacher passed away, she was always melancholic. She wouldn't take medicine when she was sick, she just resigned herself to death."
Jiang Nuan recalled that her grandmother had been in that state.
Meng Yuan was stunned, looking at her, and asked curiously, "Even so, your grandmother still refused to tell you why?"
Jiang Nuan shook her head. Her large eyes sparkled like black gemstones, without a trace of impurity. She thought about it carefully again. There really weren't many clues: "I was busy with my studies during those years, and my grandmother was very strict with me. My grandmother really didn't reveal anything about my scummy father."
"Ah, really? I wonder if there are any answers in the place where your grandmother lived?" Meng Yuan looked at Jiang Nuan dazedly. In her eyes, Jiang Nuan was like a money tree at this moment. She also wanted to buy a villa here and be neighbors with her Nuan Nuan.
Nuan Nuan was the best, hardworking and not stingy.
A flicker of pain crossed Jiang Nuan's heart as she looked at Meng Yuan. "How about we go take a look tomorrow?"
Meng Yuan nodded vigorously. Seeing that she was willing to go, her eyes immediately lit up with joy. That was Jiang Nuan's most painful place, but she had to face it. She had been avoiding it for six years. "Okay, let's go tomorrow then. Let's go down for dinner."
Jiang Nuan looked at Meng Yuan's happy retreating figure, blinking her beautiful eyes slightly. Had she missed something? The way Yuan Yuan looked at her was like seeing money scattered everywhere.
Jiang Nuan glanced at herself again. This little girl had issues.
Afterward, Jiang Yukuo, Jiang Shaoqing, and Jiang Siyun also got up.
Jiang Shaoqing's complexion was poor. As a mama's boy, he immediately realized his little darling had insomnia last night.
"Darling, why is your complexion so bad? What are you worried about? Why aren't you sleeping well?"
Jiang Shaoqing silently glanced at his mother. Worried if your future husband will marry you?
Mu Jiuchen seems like a decent person!
"Mom, I'm fine. I slept very well last night. It's just that the moon was missing a corner, which made me a little uncomfortable," Jiang Shaoqing replied earnestly.
Jiang Nuan and Meng Yuan glanced at each other. Meng Yuan said worriedly, "Nuan Nuan, this child is talking nonsense. He seems quite ill. Help him take a look later."
Jiang Shaoqing pouted, looking at Meng Yuan resentfully. "Aunt Meng, your horse farm on your head has turned green, yet you can still smile."
"Alas, it turned red last night, you just didn't see it." Thinking of the rose candy, she checked its price when she got back to her room and immediately offered it up. How could she dare to eat it!
Jiang Shaoqing suddenly widened his eyes and looked at her. "Auntie, did a man really send you candy last night? Sweet candy, it must have been delicious, right?"
Meng Yuan: "..."
She felt a bit breathless.
Jiang Nuan glanced at her son. "Jiang Shaoqing, has your mouth spoken prophecies again?"
Jiang Shaoqing nodded vigorously, looking at his mother mysteriously. "Mom, I always felt Aunt Meng's peach blossom luck flying over her head last night."
Meng Yuan was stunned and asked excitedly, "No way, little koi? If this is really successful this time, I'll truly believe in your koi life."
Jiang Shaoqing proudly tilted his head. "Heaven's secrets cannot be revealed."
"Pfft." Meng Yuan rolled her eyes at him. "Aren't you just whetting my appetite?"
Jiang Shaoqing didn't say anything and lowered his head to eat.
Jiang Yukuo looked at Jiang Nuan. "Mom, can I date early?"
"Clang..." The bowl in Jiang Nuan's hand fell onto the table.
Jiang Yukuo: "..." Mom, I was just joking.
Jiang Siyun picked up his mother's bowl and placed it in her hand. "Mom, don't listen to big brother's nonsense. Last night during the live stream, a beautiful young girl in the comment section called out 'Husband' and sang so well that he couldn't sleep all night because he was so excited."
Jiang Nuan patted her chest, startled.
Jiang Nuan looked at her son sternly. "Jiang Yukuo, I ask you, what are the three yuan of the imperial examinations?"
Jiang Yukuo was stunned. "Mom, why are you asking this? Can such a childish question stump me?"
Jiang Nuan's expression was very serious. "Answer me."
Jiang Yukuo replied seriously, "Jieyuan, Huiyuan, and Zhuangyuan."
Jiang Nuan nodded. "Good, you haven't studied in vain. Get rid of that thought you just had."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yukuo frowned, looking at his mother's unhappy beautiful little face, and shook his head, arguing, "Mom, it's impossible. Do you know that humans have seven emotions and six desires? Seven emotions: joy, anger, sorrow, contemplation, grief, fear, and surprise. Six desires: sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, and mind. Just like your traditional Chinese medicine theory, Mom, the five zang organs: heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. It won't work if even one is missing. Therefore, I can't control my seven emotions and six desires either."
Meng Yuan was stunned. "Darling, what are you saying?"
Jiang Yukuo looked at her with a hint of disdain. Intelligence really requires talent. "Aunt Meng, when I usually tell you to read, you stare at the sky in a daze. Now you say you don't understand. You deserve not to understand."
