Chapter 293: Zijuan and Yinyue reconcile, Fengjie and Shuying plot
After changing their clothes, the two decided to go to the small garden to drink tea. They asked for tea and snacks to be served up, and invited Grandmother Jia to come up. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren held a small tea party here.
After sitting down, Jia's mother reminded: "Pin'er, why don't you ask your friend to come up? After all, he is a guest."
Shi Xiangyun said coquettishly: "I just want to have a private chat with the old ancestor. Besides, she is a foreigner. Will she like our tea?"
"Private conversations can be made at any time. First, invite her. Whether she comes or not is another matter. This is the way the host treats guests."
Zijuan was a little reluctant to hear this, but she still went to invite him.
Lin Pin'er also stood up: "I'm afraid she will be shy, so I need to go and invite her in person."
Grandmother Jia smiled and said, "Pin'er is still sensible."
Shi Xiangyun refused: "Am I not sensible?"
Grandmother Jia patted her little face and said, "You are also sensible. You are the best."
Lin Pin'er walked out of the terrace and quickly followed Zijuan's footsteps.
"Zijuan, you seem unhappy. Can you talk to me? Why are you unhappy?"
Zijuan didn't hide it, she stopped and whispered, "I have always served Miss Lin, and I am definitely happy that you are back this time. But I heard that you returned to the capital without me, and I felt a little uncomfortable. And you let Miss Yin Yue be your assistant, which made me feel even more uncomfortable."
After hearing this, Lin Pin'er found that it was just as she had expected. She then pulled Zijuan downstairs and brought her to her room.
"Ms. Lin, am I not doing a good enough job as your assistant?" Zijuan asked as soon as she entered the room.
"No, you're very good. You've been taking care of me since I came to the Jia family. You've been considerate of me in every way, and we can be close friends.
But think about it, now only you and Yuanyang are serving grandma. Yesterday Shui Rong said that he would also take Sister Feng to the capital. If she leaves, there will be even fewer people to take care of grandma. "
Zijuan listened and nodded: "That's right."
"I should have talked to you about this yesterday, but I was so dizzy from jet lag that I forgot about you.
Just take my place and help me fulfill my filial duty by my grandmother's side and take good care of her. It is because of your thorough and thoughtful work that I can rest assured to work hard in the capital.
When I am able to take my grandmother back, she will have someone to take care of her, and you can come back to me, we will live together for the rest of our lives."
The sadness on Zijuan's face gradually disappeared, and the dark clouds that had been hanging over her head for the past two days also dissipated.
"I understand. I will definitely take good care of the old ancestor. Don't worry, you must take good care of yourself when you return to the capital.
There is one more thing. You asked me about Shifan before. Although I couldn't contact him, he had been arranging for people to deliver the food. I knew it was him who did it, including the way he packed the food. He should be safe, but it might be inconvenient for him to show up. "
Lin Pin'er hugged her and then took her out.
"That makes me feel relieved. Shui Rong and I are very worried about him."
After that, they went to invite Yin Yue to the rooftop terrace for tea.
Yin Yue sat for a while, then followed Zijuan downstairs. Lin Pin'er was worried and went downstairs to check.
The two of them really reconciled. Just like Yin Yue did when she first came to Shanghai, she followed Zijuan, happily helping her and asking her how to cook.
Zijuan was no longer as cold to her as she had been in the morning. While teaching her, she gave her time to write down her thoughts. The two of them talked and laughed, and they were back to being friends again.
Shui Rong and Wei Ting had already moved to the sofa in the living room to drink tea and chat. Suddenly, they turned around and saw Lin Pin'er peeking outside the kitchen. They quietly walked over and put their arms around her waist.
"You scared me again."
"You are still so timid!" Shui Rong smiled with a look of triumph.
"Why didn't you wake me up in the morning? I was the last one to get up."
"It's nothing. I saw you were sleeping like a pig and I didn't want to wake you up."
Lin Pin'er glanced at Shui Rong with the whites of her eyes: "Who looks like a pig?"
Wang Xifeng came back. She was very fast. She went to the company in the morning and came back with her personal belongings.
After saying hello to Lin Pin'er and Li Shuirong, he went back to the house to put his things away and then went to look for You Shuying.
You Shuying still didn't like meeting guests. She had gained a lot of weight and her complexion looked much rosier.
"Sister-in-law, I have something to discuss with you."
"You know I don't like this name." She flipped through the book casually.
Wang Xifeng didn't argue with her.
"Okay, then I'll get straight to the point. I'll be back in the capital next week. I've already discussed it with the old ancestor last night. First, for my work, and second, to help her with the Jia family's errands."
"You don't want to work here anymore? Even if I hand in my resignation today, your company won't let me go so quickly, right?"
Wang Xifeng sneered: "I have my own way. Not only can I make them release me, but I can also make them pay me off and let me go comfortably."
You Shuying was obviously very interested and closed the book and listened to her carefully.
"Let's get back to the point. One of the things our ancestors arranged is to use our connections to help my elder brother win the lawsuit."
"You should understand me. I don't want him to come back, and I won't help you." You Shuying was about to turn the page again.
Wang Xifeng continued, "I don't want that either, but you know, he's not dead. He'll come back sooner or later, it's just a matter of time."
"So what did you tell me?"
"I'm leaving. The old ancestor needs someone to take care of him. You should support the family first. Li Shuirong may help the Jia family. It's only a matter of time before he returns to the capital.
You should stand firm on your own feet first. When he comes back, the Jia family will not hand over any useful property to him. You will be at your mercy. Even if we divorce, you can't leave the house empty-handed, right?"
There was light in You Shuying's eyes. Yes, she had been pretending to be crazy for too long, and she even believed that she was crazy. Then she lost her fighting spirit like a parasite. If she continued like this, she would be ruined.
"How can the old ancestor believe me? After all, I am a patient now."
Wang Xifeng laughed again: "You can't even hide it from me, how can you hide it from the old ancestor? Guess why she brought you to Shanghai, because she knows you are still useful. If you are still half dead like this, when you are no longer valuable, I don't think anyone will care about you."
You Shuying sat up straight, her eyes became shrewd, and she didn't intend to pretend anymore.
"How can you give me such a good thing?"
"After all, I have divorced Jia Lian. How long can I stay in this family? If I can stay, will I go out and find a job? After all, you are still the granddaughter-in-law of this family. The old ancestor still trusts you more."
You Shuying nodded after hearing this. When Wang Xifeng was about to get up and leave, she couldn't help but ask her, "You haven't told me about your resignation yet."
Wang Xifeng laughed at first, then couldn't help saying, "My boss is having an office romance, and I deliberately caught them today. He was worried that I would tell his wife about it, so he gave me two months' salary to let me go."
