The funeral had been prepared for several days. Jiang Shu knew that Wen Ning had a deep affection for his grandfather. Even if he was cold-hearted, for her, he had to arrange the funeral of the old man properly.
The irony is that on the day of Grandpa Wen's funeral, if Jiang Shu had not been prepared, the children of the Wen family who really carried the old man's blood would not even be able to bring out a decent black dress.
During the whole ceremony, a solemn and black-clothed pair were outsiders in the traditional sense. When the grandfather was sent away, only Wen Ning cried.
When an old man in the countryside passes away, it is customary to hold a banquet. Everyone will send off the old man properly together, and there will be an explanation among the villagers.
During this period, Jiang Shu was busy with his work, and he contributed money and energy. Although he had never mastered the folk customs, he was in the upper position.
At the banquet, many people talked about Grandpa Wen's past, sighing that he had been tormented by illness for many years, bedridden for a long time, and now that he is gone, it is not a relief.
Someone secretly glanced at Jiang Shu in front of the courtyard not far away, ate a bite of the dish, and said enviously, "This Wen family is really a good incense burner. Look at how well their granddaughter is married, Grandpa Wen. Before I leave, I can see my granddaughter entrusted to such a reliable man, and I feel relieved to leave."
Before the man's voice had finished, the neighbors at the table all looked at the person he was talking about. In fact, there were a lot of people secretly looking at him. However, Jiang Shujingui's cold temperament was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. The stock is alienated and oppressive. Many people want to see it, but they always feel afraid. At this moment, it can be fair and square.
"The Wen family is very lucky. This man is handsome and tall. He doesn't look like ordinary people like us."
"It's not ordinary," said a woman at the wine table who had worked in the city for many years and had seen a bit of the world. "The watch on the man's wrist, I have seen it in the employer's magazine before, and it has this number!" she said. Then, he made a six gesture with his hand.
"Six hundred?" someone asked.
The woman shook her head.
"Six thousand?!" An old man scared off the dish he had just picked up in his chopsticks. Six thousand yuan in this small Yuquan Village can almost cover a family's living expenses for half a year.
"It's more than six million." The woman raised her eyebrows and watched everyone's reactions. All the people present were simple people who were working and farming. Not to mention they had seen a watch of six million, but they had rarely even heard of this figure.
"Oh my God, this is the son-in-law of the golden turtle..."
"What a golden tortoise son-in-law, this is the God of Wealth!" Many people's expressions changed wonderfully, "To say that the Wen family's previous life was the worst in our village, after all, Feng Shui took turns..."
"I heard from the children in my family that this uncle came from a helicopter that day, just like the one on TV. It's a big deal."
Some people smacked their tongues in shock: "Tsk tsk tsk, then the Wen family will be blessed in the future."
"It's hard to say, we don't know yet, since Wen got old and sick, that little Wen Ning has been beaten and scolded by the Wen family. If it were me, I wouldn't give them a penny! Wait! Crying and begging me with these people."
The old woman next to her opened her eyes and lowered her voice: "Why, isn't it Yu Shan's husband? How can the Wen family give such a good uncle to an outsider they picked up?"
The young man understands this better: "I really don't know who it is, but I guess it's from Xiao Wenning. This kind of rich people must be looking for beautiful ones, not me..." She lowered her voice, "Xiao Wenning's looks are just picked up at first glance. They are much prettier than Yushan. Yushan is not enough in our village. With the appearance of Xiao Wenning, she can be a big star..."
"I think too! Wasn't there a Hong Kong star before? The singing one, with big waves and red lips, I think this little Wenning looks like that star as he grows up."
"It's too early, it must be more than 20 years old, and you should keep up with the trend."
"Yes, yes, I really think she said that. Yushan... ah, it's really not comparable. The two of them stood together, like a girl on fire, that Wen Ning was white and pure."
While chatting here, Wen Yushan changed clothes and came out of the inner room.
She has been jealous of Wen Ning since she was a child, likes to bully Wen Ning, and loves to compare with Wen Ning in everything. When she was a child, because of the care of her parents, her food and clothing expenses were hundreds of times higher than Wen Ning's. Now Wen Ning brought a man from nowhere. She was embarrassed by the superiority everywhere, and even the black plain clothes prepared for the farewell ceremony were several times more delicate than hers.
On the other side of the manor, Jiang Shu had already prepared everything needed for Wen Ning's life and was waiting for her to check in at any time. Therefore, when she went out this morning, even if she also wore black clothes, it was carefully customized by the designer, and Wen Yushan She could only wear ordinary plain clothes exactly like her parents. After the whole ceremony, Wen Ning cried sadly, and she only cared about comparison.
But no matter how she compares, she knew that Wen Ning was a hundred times more beautiful than herself, but she couldn't get angry. As soon as the banquet started, she went inside and changed her black clothes.
It was a sad farewell ceremony, but she was dressed beautifully.
I just came out at this moment, I thought I could always grab the limelight with new clothes, but I didn't expect to hear such a thing.
Wen Yushan was so angry that she stepped forward a few steps, and while Jiang Shu was not nearby, she held back her anger and pretended to save face for herself: "Everyone eats and drinks well, and if you are not well taken care of, just tell me, I will be in the evening. scold him."
Wen Yushan glanced at Jiang Shu's side, and everyone felt that there was ambiguity in it, and their faces were surprised: "Yushan? Oh, oh, there's nothing to take care of, your family may be patient, you will be really in the future. Blessed, come, come, come, we will toast you."
Wen Yushan was triumphant and refused to come. It was obviously a funeral, but she had the feeling of a wedding banquet.
After drinking a few glasses of white wine, her throat and stomach burned badly, but she brought this enthusiasm on her own, and she had to bear it hard.
After a while, Wen Ning pursed her lips and came out of Grandpa Wen's room. She just went in and sat for a long time. She always felt that she couldn't accept the fact that Grandpa was gone, so she couldn't help crying again.
When he came out, he happened to be bumped into by Jiang Shu. The man pulled the man to him in distress and wiped her tears for her. Wen Ning dodged a few times and simply walked to the outer courtyard. At this moment, the teardrops were still hanging on the eyelashes. It looks lovely.
Seeing her coming out, Wen Yushan hurriedly called out: "I can't drink anymore, Wen Ning, come here and drink up."
The glass was full of white wine, and Wen Ning couldn't drink it at all. When she smelled the smell, she felt too hot. She had a sullen face, and before she had time to say no, she saw Jiang Shu follow from behind, and in front of everyone, He grabbed Wen Ning's waist and held a cup in his hand: "I'm sorry everyone, Ning Ning doesn't know how to drink, and I've been sad for the past few days. I really feel bad, so I drank it for her, thank you for coming to give the old man a treat. Procedure."
After Jiang Shu finished drinking, he looked at Wen Yushan coldly, his expression indifferent: "You guys continue."
Not his woman, drink as much as she likes.
Wen Yushan was so angry that her face turned red and white, and she only knew how to get angry at her mother.
**
Wen Ning's low mood continued. Seeing that she hadn't eaten two bites of dinner, Jiang Shu frowned and studied the appetizers to her appetite in the kitchen.
The little girl was thinking about her grandfather in the upstairs bedroom, while packing and changing her clothes, and planning to take the car back to Hancheng in the morning.
The floor-to-ceiling windows of the bedroom were open, and the balcony was attached to the outside. Wen Ning packed her luggage, and just zipped it up, she heard the conversation between the servant and Jiang Shu in the garden downstairs: "Sir, this lady must be my wife's cousin, we I have no choice but to let her in."
Wen Ning's brows wrinkled, she put down her things, and hurriedly got up and walked out of the balcony.
Looking down, I saw her so-called cousin, who broke in in the winter wearing a small suspender, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and she put on a lovely expression, stroking the quilt on her cheek with one hand. The traces that Wen Ning made when she slapped her hand: "Ning Ning has a bad temper since she was a child, and hitting people is also a common thing. Everyone in our family takes into account that she was picked up and leaves her everywhere. We have long been used to it. But in the past few days, we have seen her attitude towards you, and she is just as ignorant... I am afraid that you, Mr. Jiang, will be angry in the future... "
Wen Yushan also deliberately bit her lip, imitating Wen Ning's way. Obviously, when Wen Ning did this action, it made people feel distressed, but when it was replaced by her, it immediately added a bit of nausea.
Jiang Shu's face was cold, and his eyes were too lazy to look at her. He was about to greet the security guard to drive people away, but he heard her say: "Today at the banquet, I really can't drink anymore, so I asked Ningning to drink for me, but My mother protected her like before. Afterwards, she scolded me severely and kicked me out. She was not allowed to stay at home. Mr. Jiang, why did everyone protect her from childhood to adulthood, but I... I really have nowhere to go…”
Wen Yushan's meaning couldn't be more obvious. Her mother told her a lot at night. Such a powerful and powerful man can't take Wen Ning cheap. She has been no worse than Wen Ning since she was a child, and men must rely on robbing.
No man can resist a woman's embrace. She observed for several days, Wen Ning, this idiot, doesn't seem to like Jiang Shu very much. They all know the temper of a rich man, even if he likes it at the moment. , it won't take long for you to get tired of it, and no one wants to be hot and cold butt forever.
Wen Ning heard it clearly upstairs. She pursed her lips and her eyes were light. In the past, Wen Yushan liked to grab everything from her, but now she even hit Jiang Shu's head.
Wen Ning pulled the corners of her lips ugly, but it's a pity that Jiang Shu is not hers at all, not from beginning to end.
He was too dazzling and too attractive. Wen Ning stood on the balcony and didn't move away, always feeling a little tired in his heart and body.
Downstairs, Jiang Shu had been thinking about the appetizers to coax Wen Ning to eat, but at this moment, Wen Yushan was delayed a little, and he was quite impatient.
The man's tone was cold, and he didn't give any face at all: "Get rid of me now, just like you, how can you take off a lot? No matter how bad Wen Ning has a bad temper, I will accept it willingly, and I just want to spoil it. Follow her, follow her, protect her."
"Be smart and don't provoke her again, or I can't guarantee what I will do. Do you want to have a banquet like today for yourself?"
Wen Yushan's eyes widened in fright: "Mad!" When she raised her head unintentionally, she happened to see Wen Ning standing quietly on the balcony.
She yelled at her: "Did you hear that? How scary is this man, yes, he likes you today, and when he gets tired of playing, you will be even worse than me! He dares to do anything, always One day, you will die miserably."
The next second, a few security guards saw Jiang Shu wink, and immediately rushed over to drag the person out.
Jiang Shu saw Wen Ning's expression on the balcony and felt that something was not right, so he hurriedly went upstairs to find her.
I saw the little girl carrying a bag and pretending to leave.
"Ning Ning?" His tone completely lost the ruthlessness just now, "What's the matter, put down the bag, I just made something delicious, take you to eat and see."
Wen Ning was just quiet, her voice fluttering: "I want to go back to Hancheng."
Jiang Shu patiently smiled and said softly, "It's very late. Stay one more night. I'll drive you away tomorrow morning, okay? Be good, there's no car to go out now."
"Ningning is angry? The servant doesn't know Wen Yushan. She only brought her in because she is your cousin. I don't even bother to look at her, eh? Don't be angry, okay?"
Wen Ning: "You don't have to explain to me, we have divorced, and it has nothing to do with me."
But when he said that, he didn't know what to do in his heart. The more gentle he was, the more afraid he was in his heart.
Just now when she saw Wen Yushan dressed like that and came to Jiang Shu, she felt something was wrong.
After thinking about it, Wen Yushan was right. A man like Jiang Shu can hold you to the top when he is nice to a person, but if he changes his mind one day, falling down must be the worst and the most painful. .
Wen Ning thought for a while, suddenly flipped through her bag, and took out the card that Zhang Wangqing had given her earlier: "Here are all my paychecks. I originally wanted to treat part of my grandfather's illness, and the rest will slowly pay off your debt. , Now that Grandpa is gone, I will give you all this. Wang Qing said the day before yesterday that the money from Qingling was also transferred to this card. There should be more than 600,000 yuan in it, which is enough to pay you back... Jiang Shu, in the future you will I'm not my creditor anymore, I shouldn't owe you anything, just let me go..."
Jiang Shu panicked for no reason. He seemed to have seen this scene once. On New Year's Eve, he couldn't see his mind clearly, but now, he couldn't let her leave so easily.
Jiang Shu held her shoulders carefully: "Ningning, I know that you are very tired and sad when you send grandpa away today, Cheng, I'll keep this card, but won't you leave tonight? It's already dark, and there's no car. It's really unsafe. Grandpa always hopes that Ningning will be fine, right? You sleep peacefully for a night, and I will definitely take you back to Hancheng tomorrow morning."
Wen Ning pursed her lips, lost her luggage, and burrowed into the quilt. Jiang Shu knew that she was willing to stay, but she did not intend to see him.
The man sighed lightly.
The little girl squeamishly heard a muffled voice from under the quilt: "You go out..."
"Okay, I'll go out." Jiang Shu helplessly pulled the quilt for her. He didn't even dare to sit on the sofa, so he hurried out of the bedroom.
After twelve o'clock at night, Wen Ning tossed and turned and didn't fall asleep. She knew that Jiang Shu came in quietly a few times during the period. She didn't eat tonight. Every time Jiang Shu came in, she put something hot on the bedside, but she She blinked her eyes under the covers, her mouth slumped in grievance and didn't want to eat at all.
It seemed that the darker the night, the more insecurity she felt.
The little girl secretly got up from the bed, originally wanting to drink a few sips of ice water to wake up, but when she touched the body of the cup, it was warm and hot, which Jiang Shu had just changed not long ago.
Wen Ning simply put on her shoes and went to the first floor quietly, enduring the fear of the dark, she went around and found the wine cellar, took a wine bottle out of it, and left the main house on her own. The well-tended garden , go straight to the small shabby house in the corner of the manor.
Jiang Shu just took a shower, and when he came back to the bedroom, Wen Ning was nowhere to be seen.
The man panicked for a moment, clenched his hands in a panic, and hurried downstairs. He searched the living room, dining room, and small flower room over and over again, but no one was there. After finally passing by the main entrance of the main house, he saw that the door was slightly open. With that, the heart is mentioned in the throat.
By the time Jiang Shu finally found her in the small broken house, Wen Ning had already drank the small bottle of wine.
The little girl leaned on the wooden bed drunkenly, looked up stupidly at the man who rushed to find it, and suddenly pursed her lips, looking cute and aggrieved: "Brother Jiang Shu..."
As soon as she said "Brother Jiang Shu", his eyes turned red.
The man's muffled voice squeezed out of his cavity: "Well."
"Brother Jiang Shu, Ning Ning secretly drank your wine, I'm sorry..."
Jiang Shu walked to her side in a hoarse voice: "It's okay."
Fortunately, the wine in this manor was originally chosen by him according to the taste of the little girl. They are all fruit wines with a low degree of drinking. If you drink too much, it will not hurt your health. It's just that Wen Ning never drinks alcohol, or is Get drunk easily.
The little girl saw him walking beside her, stared into his eyes, and took the initiative to stick to it slowly.
Jiang Shu naturally reached out to catch her, took the person in his arms, and his heartbeat accelerated frantically.
"Brother Jiang Shu..."
"Um… "
The little girl suddenly came close to his neck, and an electric shock-like feeling ran through his whole body.
Who knew that Wen Ning suddenly nibbled at him fiercely, and a red mark with tooth marks appeared on the man's neck|neck.
He hissed, but he wasn't annoyed at all, and his expression was somewhat enjoyable.
"Bleeding from the bite..." Wen Ning stared at the red spot, silly and pitiful.
The man hooked his lips: "Brother will go back to the company tomorrow, little guy, you have bitten such a mark here, how do you want me to explain to the people under my hand?"
Wen Ning snorted and didn't listen to what he said, but suddenly changed her face: "Brother Jiang Shu, why don't you recognize Ning Ning?"
Jiang Shu was startled, the tip of his nose was sour, and his voice was so hoarse that he couldn't hear it: "I didn't recognize Ning Ning, how could I not recognize Ning Ning."
He took her into his arms, and the two of them leaned on the small wooden bed like when they were young, and patiently told her: "Brother Jiang Shu thinks about Ning Ning every day, no matter where he goes, he always wants to take Ning Ning, Yuganwan with him. The room on the third floor was given to Ningning, you were only eight years old at that time, I bought a lot of beautiful dresses, I think Ningning will like it, and I think you must be the most beautiful in it."
Wen Ning stood up limply, raised her head to meet his face, blinked Xing'er's round eyes, and pouted innocently: "Then you are still murdering me! Don't let me in!"
The little girl has always been quiet and well-behaved, and has never had any temper, but probably only after being drunk can she be so unscrupulous.
Jiang Shu's heart became a ball, and he rubbed the top of her hair with a big hand: "I'm sorry, baby, you and Jiang Shu go back to Yuganwan, and later-"
Wen Ning suddenly propped up his body, propped herself up, and looked at him softly, her brows were red, and her timid grievance made people feel distressed: "Brother Jiang Shu, they all said that you are a powerful man with a lot of money. The man... everyone likes you, even Wen Yushan likes you... "
Jiang Shu touched her face: "Is it all for you? All for you."
Wen Ning shook his head: "Brother Jiang Shu, grandpa is gone, Ning Ning is so scared, no one will love me anymore, you are so powerful, I can't compare to you no matter what, if you still like me now, Just let me go... think about it for me in the future."
She was afraid that she would fall into it again, that he would withdraw again after falling in, she was afraid that she would be even more reluctant at that time, and she was afraid that she really couldn't hold on.
