Jiang Teng washed his hands and sat back down at the dining table.
Gu Pandi handed over the chopsticks.
The family of three started to eat dinner.
Jiang Teng suddenly said, "Xiao Xu is a very low-key kid. He is a great success. I never realized he was so promising."
Jiang Ruoyu immediately cast a curious look at him.
Gu Pandi looked at the dishes in front of her with a calm expression.
Jiang Teng explained: "I heard that Xiao Xu seems to be planning to acquire the Yangzi Air Conditioning Factory."
Jiang Ruoyu asked curiously, "Dad, who did you listen to? Is Brother Xiuwen going to buy the air conditioning factory? Is it the Yangzi I know?"
Jiang Teng asked with a smile, "Can there be another Yangzi Air Conditioning Factory?"
There was a pause.
"The director of the air-conditioning factory ran away with the money, and the company has been looking for someone to take over. Xiao Xu previously acquired Guangming Winery and later ran it well, so some leaders wanted him to take over the air-conditioning factory, hoping that he could revive it."
Jiang Ruoyu opened her eyes wide when she heard this, feeling a little surprised and a little proud.
"Will Brother Xiuwen take over?"
Jiang Teng nodded, "I don't know."
Hearing this, Jiang Ruoyu smiled and said, "Then I'll go find Brother Xiuwen later and ask him if he wants to acquire the air conditioning factory."
Jiang Teng shook his head and said, "This involves commercial secrets. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for him if you asked him? Will he tell you or not?"
"I won't tell anyone, but Brother Xiuwen is really amazing."
"This kid is really amazing. Even I misjudged him."
"Okay, don't tell outsiders."
Gu Pandi suddenly spoke up, interrupting the conversation between the father and daughter.
The father and daughter stopped discussing Xu Xiuwen.
Seeing Jiang Ruoyu drinking soup, Jiang Teng picked up the spoon in the bowl, scooped out a piece of pork ribs, and said to Jiang Ruoyu, "Don't just drink the soup, eat some pork ribs to replenish yourself. You've lost weight since going to school."
As he said that, he put the ribs into Jiang Ruoyu's bowl.
Then Jiang Ruoyu talked about how hard her one-month military training in college was.
Jiang Teng followed her words and asked many questions about military training.
Jiang Ruoyu answered obediently.
Gu Pandi would sometimes ask a few questions, but generally she didn't say much.
It was mainly the father and daughter talking.
At this time, Jiang Ruoyu saw that Gu Pandi didn't seem to eat much from beginning to end, so she asked: "Mom, why don't you eat? Don't you have an appetite?"
Jiang Teng immediately cast his gaze over.
There seemed to be doubt in that look.
Gu Pandi said calmly: "I don't have much appetite."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruoyu picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of soup and poured it into Gu Pandi's bowl.
"Mom, then you should drink more soup."
Gu Pandi felt her daughter's concern and a smile appeared on her face.
She picked up the bowl and was about to drink the soup when her face suddenly turned pale.
She immediately put down the bowl, stood up from her chair, rushed to the bathroom, and vomited into the sink.
The father and daughter looked at each other.
Jiang Ruoyu asked with concern: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm fine... You guys eat first."
Gu Pandi's intermittent voice and vomiting sounds were heard from the bathroom.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Teng put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and walked to the bathroom.
Gu Pandi lay on the sink with her hands on the sink and her head buried in the sink, constantly making vomiting movements, but she hadn't eaten anything in the first place, so she only vomited a little saliva.
Jiang Teng did not go forward to pat Gu Pandi on the back.
He stood there, looked at Gu Pandi and asked, "What happened to you today? Why did you vomit for no reason? Did you catch a cold?"
Gu Pandi rinsed her mouth with water, spit it out, looked up at Jiang Teng in the mirror and said, "Maybe I caught a cold."
Her voice was weak.
"You caught a cold because you didn't wear enough clothes at noon. I wanted to say something to you. Look at the clothes you wore to the banquet today. The skirt is so short that your thighs are exposed. You should know that you are a woman, not a young girl. How can you not catch a cold wearing so little?"
Gu Pandi didn't say anything.
Jiang Teng asked again: "When did you buy this outfit? Why haven't I seen you wear it before?"
Gu Pandi lowered her head and said, "I bought it when I went traveling before."
When Jiang Teng heard the word "tourism", his momentum suddenly diminished.
The reason why Gu Pandi went out traveling was because he cheated on her and asked for a divorce.
Gu Pandi went out traveling because she was in a bad mood.
Jiang Teng also knew that he had made a mistake before.
His voice softened. "Do you want me to go get some medicine?"
Gu Pandi's voice was a little cold, "Forget it, don't worry about me, just go and eat."
"Are you sure you don't need to buy medicine?"
"Sure."
Jiang Teng also felt that he had just caught a cold and was not sick.
You know, he never takes medicine when he is sick, he just wants to tough it out.
So he turned around and left the bathroom, going back to the living room to continue eating.
Jiang Teng went back to eat.
Jiang Ruoyu walked over.
She asked with concern: "Mom, are you really okay?"
Gu Pandi shook her head. "It's okay. Go eat."
The voice became much gentler.
Jiang Ruoyu said: "After you finish eating, I will make you some ginger soup, and you will be fine after drinking it."
"No, I'm fine."
That's how the matter passed.
After dinner, Jiang Teng put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, then sat on the sofa and watched the news.
Jiang Teng is very concerned about national affairs and watches the news broadcast almost every day as long as he has time.
Gu Pandi cleaned up the dishes and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Jiang Ruoyu also followed in.
She took the initiative and said, "Mom, you are not feeling well, so let me wash the dishes."
Gu Pandi turned her head and glanced at Jiang Ruoyu, then said with a smile, "Let me do it. Detergent hurts your hands, and your hands are so tender. I'll let you wash them after you get married."
Jiang Ruoyu felt a little shy when she heard the word marriage from her mother.
The first person she thought of was Xu Xiuwen.
Plus, I just attended someone else’s wedding at noon.
She couldn't help but have some associations.
Xu Xiuwen was wearing a suit.
She was wearing a wedding dress.
Xu Xiuwen walked towards him and his father with a smile, then took his hand from his father.
She just thought about it, but her heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
Jiang Ruoyu suppressed her embarrassment and said, "Mom, it's still a long time before I get married."
Gu Pandi turned on the faucet and poured detergent on the dishes.
She said while washing dishes: "Yes, there is still a long time. By the time you get married, we will be old too."
Jiang Ruoyu shook her head and said, "Mom, you won't get old. At the wedding today, you, Aunt Zhang, and Aunt Ning are the youngest people at our table. Some of the other aunts are younger than you, but they look much older than you."
Gu Pandi just smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Ruoyu thought that Gu Pandi didn't believe it, so she continued, "Really, Mom, you look very young. When people see us together, they think you are my sister."
