The Eldest Young Master's Gentle Wife (6)
In the main hall, the brother-sister duo hugged and cried, the atmosphere just right. Suddenly, an untily voice rang out.
Concubine Shu swayed over: "And I thought it was soone important. It turns out to be soone who ca here to leech off our familys riches."
Li Ming and Li Cai Weis faces changed. Li Cai Wei almost couldnt keep the polite small smile on her face, and Li Mings face had turned completely red.
It was Shui Gen who stepped out to diate the situation: Concubine Shu is joking, Sir Li is the Eldest Young Masters brother-in-law, how could he be soone like that?"
Concubine Shu smiled and did not speak, but everyone could feel that arrogant attitude of hers.
Concubine Shu: "Alright, the Eldest Young Master is an important person busy with matters. I don't know if he still rembers that his upright brother-in-law is visiting today."
Apologies for making Concubine Shu worried. It is rare for Younger Brother Ming to visit. As his brother-in-law, no matter how busy I am, I will still make ti to entertain him. A familiar male voice ca from outside the door. Jiang Zhe held his hands behind his back and walked slowly toward everyone.
He nodded slightly at Li Ming, "There were a lot of things on hand. I apologise for being late, I hope Younger Brother Ming can forgive ."
Li Ming had already been shocked silly. He waved his hands stiffly, saying, "Brother-in-law is too serious."
Jiang Zhes lips hooked up, instructing Shui Gen, "Younger Brother Ming has had a long journey. Go instruct the kitchen to make so light and easily digestible food. "
Shui Gen: "Yes, Eldest Young Master."
Jiang Zhe looked at the servant standing at attention by the side, What are you still dazing for, dont you see there are guests? Serve the tea and snacks.
Servants: "Yes, Eldest Young Master."
Li Cai Wei was already stunned. She stared at the man in front of her, a ridiculous idea erging from her frozen heart.
Jiang Zhe doing this is giving her face?
But how is this possible?
As if to break her previous knowledge, Jiang Zhe slowly walked to Li Cai Weis side, gently holding on to her shoulders, his gaze gentle, "It is rare for Younger Brother Ming to visit. We should let him visit Mother."
Li Ming also recovered his senses, "So thats the reason." He turned around, rummaged his luggage and took out a small box, handing it over with both hands, "To visit so suddenly is a little brazen of . This is just a small gift showing my sincerity, I hope you dont mind it."
Jiang Zhe gave a polite smile, but still received the box, saying, "We are all one family, theres no need to be so polite. Let's go. At this ti, Mother should be embroidering in the backyard."
Jiang Zhe held onto Li Cai Wei and walked in front, Li Ming and Shui Gen followed closely behind, and Concubine Shu was once again thoroughly ignored.
Just nice, the tea was served, "Concubine Shu, please have so tea."
Concubine Shu angrily toppled the teacup, her chest heaving up and down, "Drink, what drink! Im already full on anger."
On the other side, Jiang Zhe held onto Li Cai Weis hand as they walked along the veranda corridor. Passing through two doorways, they finally walked into the courtyard where Mother Jiang lived.
It was about 11 o'clock in the morning and the sun was just right. Mother Jiang, being attended to by her servants, had eaten a bowl of birds nest and was now taking a stroll in the courtyard. Suddenly eting her son, she was happily surprised, "Zheer, why are you back?
Jiang Zhe released his wifes hand and stepped forward to support Mother Jiang. He smiled: Im not busy today, so I ca ho to accompany Mother to eat. Just nice, Younger Brother Ming arrived, so I brought him to visit you."
Li Ming imdiately clasped his hands and bowed: "I have t Aunt."
Mother Jiang held on to her sons hands, extrely elated. Her good mood extended to Li Ming, "We are all one family, no need to be so polite."
Turning her head, she asked Jiang Zhe, "You, too, are too much. You are so busy; you don't have to go back and forth. Its enough for to have Cai Wei accompany for lunch." Despite saying that, the smile on her face couldnt be stopped.
Jiang Zhe let her say her piece and did not refute. He helped her into the house. The Li familys brother-sister duo looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.
However, they were both patient people who are able to endure, and they quietly followed.
Jiang Zhe personally poured a glass of water for Mother Jiang, helping her to sit down, asking after concernedly, "Is Mothers health good recently?"
Mother Jiang laughed: "Good, the doctor said that it is much better than before."
Jiang Zhe: "Mother is in good health, this son can relax while working outside."
Mother Jiang: "Zheer, rest assured that for you and your father, Mother will take care of herself."
Jiang Zhe once again pulled her to chat about other matters. No matter how small the topic was, every ti Jiang Zhe brought up a topic, Mother Jiang could talk about it for half a day. Jiang Zhe remained by her side, laughing and listening, and occasionally adding one or two sentences in.
Mother Jiang was initially worried that her son would be impatient. Who knew that Jiang Zhes attitude would be so good, the mont she started talking, she couldnt stop.
Jiang Zhe poured water for her by her side, so that she would not be thirsty after speaking so much.
Without knowing, ti passed and the clocks bell rang at twelve o'clock.
Mother Jiang was stunned; she had accidentally spoken for too long.
Mother Jiang: "Zheer, I"
Jiang Zhe patted her hand, his face seemingly guilty, "Its this son who has been bad, not accompanying Mother regularly. I wont do so again in the future.
En. Mother Jiangs eyes turned red. She turned around at rubbed the corner of her eyes. Behind her, Zhang Ma was happy for her.
Jiang Zhe called Shui Gen over, instructing: "You can serve the food now."
Shortly, exquisite dishes were brought up, including a plate of stead sea. Jiang Zhe used his chopsticks to pick out the bones, then placed so fish at in Mother Jiangs bowl, "The sea bass has less bones, and is fresh and nutritious. Mother can eat more."
Mother Jiang was already so happy she was at a loss of words, the smile on her face never once dropping. She picked up the fish at and took a bite. Indeed, there was no fish bone. She was unsure if it was just an illusion, but the beautiful fish at actually had an additionally sweet taste.
During the whole al, Jiang Zhe did not eat much, only giving Mother Jiang food.
After the al, Jiang Zhe continued to accompany Mother Jiang to chat, until it was almost 1pm. He seed to rember sothing and knocked his forehead. "Mother, I have sothing to discuss with you."
Mother Jiang: "Go ahead."
Jiang Zhe: "I want to transfer Younger Brother Mings school over. This is what I think. Younger Brother Ming previously also followed Uncle Li in managing his business. He has experience and now that Im getting busier every day, and I cant just trust anyone, if Younger Brother Ming is successful after studying, he can also help . This way, I can have more ti in the future to co ho more often and accompany Mother.
Mother Jiang, who was initially still hesitant, was imdiately moved by her sons last sentence. She almost imdiately agreed to it.
Jiang Zhe smiled and said: "Sure enough, Mother is the most kind, gentle and understanding woman in Yunlan City. For this son to have a mother like you, is my blessing."
Mother Jiang was embarrassed from the praise, hurriedly waving her hands, "Zheer has exaggerated." She imdiately turned her head towards the people around her, saying, "Zhang Ma, clean up a guest room later for Minger to rest tonight. After that, prepare a few fitted clothes and send it over. Right, Minger needs to study. Prepare so school supplies and books as well."
Jiang Zhe had been listening and smiling, giving Mother Jiang a grateful and approving look from ti to ti. As such, Li Ming's school has been confird, the housing problem has been solved, and the living expenses have also been taken care of.
Li Ming was simply spoiled rotten.
On the other hand, Li Cai Wei looked at Jiang Zhes gentleness, in deep thought.
TN: Not sure to translate Zhang Ma as it is, as it is a more familiar, intimate way to call soone who has served you for many years. It still refers to an attendant, though.
