Chapter 158 Reunion Dinner

Zhao Yimeng was still cashing out to bring funds back, not in a hurry to get an answer from Su Yehao.

After chatting with Grandpa Tang, Su Yehao first took his maternal grandfather back to the Tang family mansion on Branksome Path.

He drank tea and watched TV at home, and the sky outside quickly darkened.

After receiving a text message from Nong Qingying, he simply replied that she could come over, just in time for dinner.

His mother and the others were already done playing mahjong.

At this moment, Su Yehao glanced at Jiang Yu, always feeling that this girl was an unstable factor.

After all, Nangong Tian had already met Nong Qingying and his son, and the two had even eaten at the same table once. Although there wasn't much interaction, they were at peace with each other.

Jiang Yu was different. When visiting the child, she made excuses to slip away to the capital, and she also missed the family banquet held in the old house during the New Year's holiday when she accompanied her family to Europe.

In other words.

Since Su Yehao had a child, Jiang Yu had only seen photos in the newspaper and had not had direct contact with Nong Qingying.

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became that something would go wrong, turning a good reunion dinner into a battlefield. Su Yehao simply found a reason and said to Jiang Yu, "There's a treasure in the attic that my maternal grandfather collected. Should I take you to see it?"

"What is it?"

Jiang Yu was completely unprepared, munching on melon seeds, her eyes fixed on the TV, which was playing the cartoon "Crayon Shin-chan."

Taking her hand, Su Yehao got up and said, "You'll know when you see it. You'll definitely like it."

Filled with curiosity, Jiang Yu accompanied him upstairs.

As soon as they arrived at the study on the second floor, Su Yehao casually closed the door, immediately giving her a long kiss until the girl was out of breath and her heart was pounding wildly.

After being together for so long, Jiang Yu was still somewhat immune to this. She reached out and hit him, ruining the mood as she complained, "My lipstick! It took me so long to touch up my makeup. Your family is downstairs. Why are you suddenly acting crazy..."

"Nong Qingying will be here later too. I'm afraid you'll be angry. This afternoon, when you were playing mahjong, my maternal grandfather took me to visit an old friend. Only when we got there did I realize it was Zhao Yimeng's maternal grandfather's house, and she was there too."

Putting his arms around Jiang Yu, Su Yehao continued, "Miss Zhao told me that I must treat you well and that you've only liked me since you were little."

The fact that she would be meeting other women tonight had indeed made Jiang Yu restless for several days.

However, Mother Tang had personally called and invited her, and it would be inappropriate not to come. Therefore, with Xiao Nizi (Little Girl) giving her courage, she still obediently came to eat the reunion dinner.

Originally, it might have been okay.

However, as soon as she heard Su Yehao talking about this topic, Jiang Yu immediately couldn't hold back, and tears began to well up in her big eyes.

This reaction was beyond Su Yehao's expectations. He thought that letting Jiang Yu throw a small tantrum would be fine, but he never expected that she would start crying so easily.

Panicked instantly, he quickly lowered his voice and said:

"Don't cry, how will you face people with swollen eyes? Look at Nangong, she specially wore a custom-made dress from Dior tonight. If you have two peaches on your face later, wouldn't you be losing at the starting line?"

Hearing this.

Jiang Yu became even more sad.

The reason for her sadness at this moment was different from the last.

She looked up at the ceiling, wanting to wipe her tears but afraid of smudging her makeup, and said:

"Get me a tissue. You deliberately want to see me make a fool of myself, don't you? I'll kick you into the stars! You never comfort me normally, but you say those things at a time like this. You're just targeting me."

"...Who would have thought you would cry in a second? I should have just pretended nothing happened."

"Exactly! You should have just ignored me!"

Jiang Yu glared at him, thinking that she would be meeting Nong Qingying later, and forcibly suppressed her surging emotions, taking deep breaths to adjust her mindset.

Su Yehao was stunned by this scene.

Indeed.

In the face of the desire to be beautiful, all other problems can be put aside. No wonder people on the internet often say that when a girl goes downstairs to pick up a package, she sometimes spends half an hour putting on makeup.

After a simple touch-up, her eyes were still red, and Jiang Yu just stared blankly, scrutinizing a certain playboy.

Su Yehao understood what she meant, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Don't worry, leave it all to me..."

Going downstairs again.

Grandpa Tang was the first to notice Jiang Yu's abnormality. Without holding back his thoughts, he directly asked, "Miss Jiang, why have you been crying? Did my grandson bully you? I'll help you beat him up."

Su Yehao pretended to sigh and said:

"Alas, I saw a photo of my maternal grandmother upstairs. Jiang Yu was reminded of how kind and amiable she was when she was alive, and she suddenly felt a little sad."

Hearing this sentence.

Everyone sitting in the living room, including Grandpa Tang, Mother Tang, and even Su Yehao's father, were reminded of their memories.

Su's father had just arrived, taking off his coat as he said:

"Jiang Yu did come to play a few times when she was a child. I was the one who brought her and Xiao Hao together. So many years have passed, it's rare that she still remembers her kindness. She really has a heart. If it weren't for my mother-in-law secretly helping a lot and saying good things for me, I wouldn't have been able to marry such a good wife."

Grandpa Tang was originally very sad, but after listening, he silently looked at his son-in-law and said:

"Yes, I've never made a wrong decision in my life, except for that one time when I didn't open my eyes wide enough and brought a wolf into the house, causing my daughter to suffer a lot."

"..."

Su's father couldn't respond to this, his movements froze, and he didn't dare to move.

Mother Su was amused by this, and she suggested:

"Find a good weather day in a few days and burn some paper money for her at the cemetery. I think she would be especially happy to see how excellent Xiao Hao is now, knowing him from a young age."

Mentioning these things, Grandpa Tang felt a little guilty and sighed, "We should go. Let's not talk about these unhappy things during the New Year. I'll go upstairs and burn a stick of incense for her. Once my precious great-grandson arrives, let's eat..."

Jiang Yu noticed Su Yehao wink at her deliberately, and she was speechless.

This excuse was really perfect. Instantly, no one asked her why she was crying before, but it was quite mean.

She had indeed seen his maternal grandmother a few times when she was a child, but she didn't have much impression of her anymore, let alone think of her fondly. At most, she only had some fragmented memories.

Not long after.

There was a commotion in the yard. Su Yehao went out and carried the child out of the car.

Nong Qingying brought some wine and dried goods as gifts, and directly asked the housekeeper to help bring them in.

After greeting each other familiarly, Nong Qingying smiled and took the initiative to reach out to Jiang Yu, saying:

"Miss Jiang, I always thought you were very beautiful before. I couldn't help but steal a few glances at you. I didn't expect to have the opportunity to become a family."

She had really seen her a few times before, since they were neighbors, it was inevitable that they would have opportunities to meet.

Jiang Yu shook hands with her generously and said, "I really didn't expect it. It's a bit cold outside, let's go inside and talk. I thought you were a model or a celebrity."

...

The reunion dinner on New Year's Eve was a little awkward.

There were only so few people in the family, and Su Yehao brought three of them back. It was all thanks to the other family members helping to find topics to talk about that the atmosphere wasn't too cold.

Although Jiang Yu and Xiao Nizi didn't have much affection for Nong Qingying, they especially liked the baby. After dinner, they took turns holding him for a while and even helped feed him with a bottle.

If not harmonious and happy, at least they could maintain enough tacit understanding...
