If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, she would have become angry from embarrassment if she still wanted to maintain her image.
"I, I dare not compare with anyone else, but my sister-in-law is virtuous and considers everything for my elder brother."
Han Yunru's smile remained unchanged, and her words were still gentle and gentle, unhurried: "You also said that I am your sister-in-law. If you don't think about your elder brother, who else can you think about?"
Jiang Qin was so choked that she quickly wrote down her name and the amount of the gift money.
Jiang Hua spoke at the right time to ease the embarrassment: "Brother and sister-in-law, I will take you to the main table."
…
At twelve o'clock, Jiang Hua came to the stage on behalf of all the children of Jiang's family, and sent blessings to the old lady.
He thanked and returned to the main table.
The vacant seat next to the old lady was reserved for him, while the youngest son Jiang Teng sat on the other side.
Jiang Da's family was arranged on the lower side, facing the old lady, but they were the farthest away from the birthday person on the whole table.
"Eat it all." The old lady said, and everyone moved their chopsticks.
For the first time since entering the door, Jiang Fuyue looked at each other squarely. The gray-haired old man was thin and thin, but his triangular eyes were very focused, and he seemed to be a calculating type.
It matched up with the fierce face in the original owner's childhood memory.
"Boss," Mrs. Jiang said suddenly, looking directly at Jiang Da, "how do you teach the children? One is so fond of his mouth that he eats all the delicious food in his bowl; the other is not greedy, but his eyes are too presumptuous. There is no respect for elders!"
"Gu Zui" refers to Jiang Chenxing, and as for "unrestrained eyes", it should refer to Jiang Fuyue.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he demoted the siblings to the dust.
Jiang Da yelled at his son, and in a blink of an eye saw his daughter's expressionless face, suddenly he didn't dare to say those words of reproach, and he still felt a little guilty.
Mrs. Jiang didn't expect him to be so useless that she couldn't even control her own children, so her face immediately darkened.
Seeing this, Jiang Teng immediately said, "Brother, what's the matter with you? You've been away for more than ten years, and you still make your mother angry when you come back. Really..."
As he spoke, he gave the old lady peace of mind, for fear that others would not know that he was a good son of "Twenty-Four Filial Piety".
Jiang Fuyue frowned.
Jiang Chenxing also realized that something was wrong, even the meat in front of him didn't feel delicious anymore.
"Third brother, how did you talk to the eldest brother? Do you understand the order of the elders and the younger?" Jiang Hua frowned and jumped out to make a rescue, like a fair and just patriarch.
But the real "eldest son" of this family is still sitting below, and everyone can step on it.
Jiang Teng curled his lips: "It's still the second brother who knows how to be a man. With a few words, he can be upright. Everyone else is wrong..."
Jiang Qin picked up a piece of ribs for his son: "Weiwei eat more, I have been studying so hard recently, my body has to keep up."
Yang Jinqiu: "Isn't it summer vacation already? Why do you still want to learn?"
Jiang Qin said proudly, "It's their school's competition class. The teacher said that Weiwei has great potential. He's going to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad in October, so hurry up and practice hard."
Yang Jinqiu is a teacher himself. Although he teaches English, he also knows something about competitions, so he boasted calmly: "Weiwei is really good."
"Of course, our Weiwei is the first in the class every time! No. 7 Middle School is such a good school, and there are so many masters..."
Yang Jinqiu looked at Liu Wei who was eating sullenly, wearing a pair of black-framed mirrors, his eyes were dull, and he looked like a bookworm.
"Let me tell you, quality-oriented education is all the emphasis now. Just being able to read is not enough. We still need to cultivate children's extracurricular interests. For example, our family Cancan passed the eighth grade of piano last week and plans to send her to Berkeley for further study in the future. "
After Yang Jinqiu finished speaking, he didn't know whether it was on purpose or not, so he also put a piece of ribs in his daughter's bowl.
The originally tense brother-in-law fight suddenly turned into a "child praise contest".
Seeing this, Liu Shuting, the third daughter-in-law, was naturally not far behind: "I agree with the second sister-in-law. What is the use of children nowadays who only know how to read? Only the comprehensive development of morality, intelligence, physical education and labor will have a future. Although our family Kaikai's grades are mediocre, But the hip-hop dance is very good. A few months ago, he represented Linhuai in the imperial capital to participate in the competition and won the gold medal... "
"Mom," Jiang Kai frowned, "Are you finished?"
Liu Shuting immediately shut up: "Okay, okay, don't tell me, you should eat more."
Jiang Qin's expression was a little troubled, but there was nothing she could do with the two sister-in-laws.
The second elder brother is the richest, and she usually takes a lot of benefits, so she has to give Yang Jinqiu some face.
Although the third brother has no skills, he will pick his wife.
Liu Shuting's natal family was in business, and she was the only daughter. Before marriage, she was spoiled by her parents, and after marriage, Jiang Teng held her in her hands.
In addition, Liu Shuting has a bad temper, speaks outrageously, and doesn't care, Jiang Qin dare not provoke her.
Turning her eyes, she fell on Han Yunru opposite, and she smiled.
"Sister-in-law, how is Yueyue and Shen Xing studying?"
Han Yunru: "General."
Jiang Qin curled her lips, she was still "average", probably too bad, so she was embarrassed to say it.
In that case, don't blame her...
"Sister-in-law is too modest to say that. We are all a family, so we have to be honest with each other. If I remember correctly, Yueyue is the same year as our Weiwei, so she should be a sophomore in high school now, right?"
"Um."
"Which school are you in?"
Han Yunru: "One Middle School."
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the room.
The No. 1 Middle School is the city's key point, and its enrollment rate has never dropped out of the top three. It is much better than the No. 7 Middle School where Liu Wei and Jiang Kai are. Even the No. 2 Middle School where Jiang Cancan is studying is also a head short.
Jiang Qin forced a smile, but still did not give up: "Which one?"
"Is there another No. 1 Middle School in Linhuai?" Han Yunru smiled apologetically, as if she really didn't know, without any irony, and continued, "Yueyue is in No. 1 Middle School."
"..." The little smile on Jiang Qin's face was hard to sustain.
Back then, in order to send Liu Wei to No. 1 Middle School in the city, she borrowed money to buy a house in the school district, but failed in the end.
Even Jiang Hua had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and get Jiang Cancan into No. 2 Middle School. Why did she, Jiang Fuyue, go into No. 1 Middle School
Why
Seeing the old lady, Jiang Qin couldn't help but look at Jiang Fuyue twice more, and her heart became more and more unbalanced.
Obviously her son is the best...
"Really? Then this kid is really good. By the way, how much is the score in the mid-month exam?"
Han Yunru reported a number.
"Huh?" Jiang Qin was surprised, as if she had caught something, a bright light flashed in her eyes, "Weiwei is two points higher than her, and she didn't even make it to No. 1 middle school. How did Yueyue get in? Could it be...Trust Should the relationship go through the back door?"
Yang Jinqiu: "This kind of atmosphere is not good. It not only disturbs the fairness of education, but also sets a bad example for the next generation, thinking that parents can get something for nothing."
But he never mentioned that his daughter also entered the second middle school through the back door.
Han Yunru looked at her face like a sage preaching, and caught a glimpse of Jiang Qin's schadenfreude from the corner of her eye, and suddenly smiled—
"Who said Yueyue went through the back door?"
