Jiang Yao arranged the main seat for her, and the seat next to her was also one of the main seats, which he originally planned to leave for Qiao Nian.
But he watched Yuan Qing, like an old confused man, pulling Jiang Xianrou to sit in the seat that originally belonged to Qiao Nian.
Jiang Yao's eyebrows jumped immediately, and he shouted in intolerance: "Auntie, that position..."
Yuan Qing was good at playing dumb. He looked at him in confusion and asked him shamelessly, "Seating? What seat? Am I sitting wrong? Oh, I'll give up my seat."
She looked like she was about to give up the main seat.
How could Jiang Yao let an elder sit beside him? He endured it and said with a twitch of his face: "No, cousin, please sit down."
Yuan Qing found the steps and immediately went down: "Ah, I wasn't mistaken. Then I'll sit down?"
She sat down and immediately grabbed Jiang Xianrou's hand, not giving Jiang Yao the chance to ask Jiang Xianrou to make room for her seat, and started chattering.
Jiang Xianrou knew whose seat she was sitting in from Jiang Yao's series of reactions, but she had no intention of giving it up. She pretended not to know and chatted with Yuan Qing in a casual manner without even looking at Jiang Yao.
Tang Wanru also found a seat and sat down next to Jiang Zongnan. When she saw this, a hint of mockery flashed across her eyes and eyebrows. She did not remind Jiang Xianrou to give up the main seat, but turned to the middle-aged man and said, "Zongnan, Dad is not here yet? Do you want me to ask the driver to pick him up?"
Jiang Zongnan, like Jiang Yao, was embarrassed to say it too clearly because of Yuan Qing's seniority. He just looked at Qiao Nian's seat being occupied by Jiang Xianrou, and felt a slight headache. He answered absentmindedly: "Dad said he was not feeling well, so he won't come."
A hint of coldness flashed across Tang Wanru's eyes. Ha, what do you mean by poor health? The old fox was clearly angry with them and didn't want to come.
She didn't care. After all, Mr. Jiang was old, and the Jiang family's connections were basically in their hands, and the family was divided.
Everyone is unwilling to do the superficial work to save face, and she is too lazy to do these superficial works!
She smiled slightly, doing what a daughter-in-law should do in front of Jiang Zongnan, pretending to be concerned: "What's wrong with Dad?"
She paused for a second and asked worriedly, "The climate has changed a lot in the past few days. Does Dad have a cold? Should we ask a doctor to come and take a look?"
Look, how caring.
No one can find any fault with her.
Jiang Zongnan's tense nerves also relaxed because of her concern. Looking at her, his gentle face softened, "It's okay. Since Dad took the health supplements that Nian Nian bought for him, he has been much healthier than before. I guess it's because he didn't get enough rest at night."
He knew in his heart why Mr. Jiang didn't come, but when he thought of those things, his head felt like it was being drilled by an electric drill.
"Forget it, don't worry about Dad. He's old, and it's good for his health if he doesn't work too hard. It takes a lot of time to go back and forth, and it's night time. If he doesn't want to come, then don't come. We'll just eat. But Big Brother and Nian Nian and the others haven't arrived yet. We don't know when they will come. We can only wait for them and start the meal when they are all here."
Of course Tang Wanru saw that Qiao Nian had not arrived yet.
She had prepared herself mentally, and when she heard Jiang Zongnan mention Qiao Nian, she reacted very indifferently, without commenting: "It's okay, let's wait."
"Um."
As soon as Jiang Zongnan finished speaking, the door of the box was pushed open from the outside.
