"What, are you disliking for being old?" Jiang Wanru playfully scolded, glancing at Su Jinrong.
Even though Jiang Wanru was in her fifties, due to her good maintenance and excellent deanor, her glaring eyes exuded a captivating charm.
Su Jinrong held her hand and said affectionately, "In my heart, you will always be the most beautiful."
"You might be shaless, but I’m still mindful of decency, even as a grandparent." Jiang Wanru shook off his hand, barely able to suppress her smile.
"Nianhua, hurry up and wash your hands for dinner."
Jiang Wanru smiled radiantly, her smile giving a feeling of a spring breeze.
"Mom, what did Dad say to you, why is your face blushing?" Xu Nianhua deliberately lagged behind a step, secretly whispering in Jiang Wanru’s ear.
Jiang Wanru instinctively touched her face and, seeing her daughter’s radiant smile, realized her daughter was teasing her. She put on a stern face and said, "Nianhua, you’ve learned to be mischievous."
"No way, Mom, you looked really beautiful when you laughed just now." Xu Nianhua quickly ran off.
Jiang Wanru watched her run away quickly, laughing helplessly. Thinking back to her daughter’s teasing words, her face reddened again. It was all Su Jinrong’s fault, acting like he was still a teenage boy at his age.
When it ca ti to eat, Jiang Wanru didn’t show Su Jinrong a smiling face but was very attentive to Xu Nianhua’s classmates.
Fang Manyin was a clothing designer and often communicated with custors, making her very approachable. Su Lie, in a casual outfit, was very patient in accompanying Su Hong’en for the al, frequently serving him, which made it less awkward for Fei Jiayi and the others.
"Co and play again next ti."
Before leaving, Jiang Wanru gave each classmate a basket of strawberries and a gift box.
"Mom, when did you prepare these gifts?" Xu Nianhua looked at Jiang Wanru curiously. She didn’t know when her mom prepared the gifts.
Jiang Wanru smiled mysteriously and said, "Guess?"
...
"Jiayi, this gift is too precious." Chang Hui opened the gift box to find a pair of silver earrings, shining brightly and looking particularly beautiful.
All six of them received silver earrings, but in different styles.
"Ahem, you all should accept them. In the future, just rember this kindness." Fei Jiayi glanced at the silver earrings and said, "The Su Family has a gold shop, and these must be their latest designs. If we don’t accept them, Aunt Su would definitely give us gold next ti!"
"If Auntie really gives gold, then that would be awkward for us. The silver earrings represent a token of affection, but if they sent gold earrings, wouldn’t that be showing off?"
Fei Jiayi wasn’t speaking casually; every ti she visited the Su Family with Su Xi, she would receive gifts of all sorts.
"But it’s very precious." Chang Hui looked at the earrings, feeling they were too lavish.
Ding Guo nodded in agreent, saying, "We can’t accept them."
"How about we return them tomorrow?" Zhou Wanwan suggested, feeling uneasy about receiving both food and gifts.
"Courtesy demands reciprocity. Let’s send a comparable gift to Nianhua later?" Liao Jinling looked at Chang Hui and the others, saying, "Are you telling you’re this stingy? Doesn’t the translation studio earn a few dozen bucks a month? We even split a hundred last month!"
Liao Jinling held up a finger. Since going to the Orient Hotel, their studio orders have been skyrocketing. Don’t underestimate the one-day-a-week training; it has greatly improved their spoken English.
