Volume 3 Comprehensive Film and Television Chapter 115 The Cabbage Mother Jiang Gave to Yuan Xudong
As night fell, Yuan Xudong drove Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun to the Jiang family's garden house. Seeing him carrying large and small bags of gifts, Jiang Pengfei and Jiang's mother stood at the door to greet him politely:
"Xiao Yuan, you can just come over here. Why did you ?"
"Aunt, these were bought by Nansun. I was just responsible for carrying them. Nansun said that she wanted to thank you and uncle for your cultivation of her since she was a child, and for making her grow up like a princess."
Seeing Yuan Xudong trying to please her mother again, Jiang Nansun couldn't help but glare at him and said angrily:
"Yuan Xudong, you obviously bought the gift yourself, why do you say I bought it? Also, when did I ever say such cheesy things to you? Was it in a dream?"
"How is that possible?"
Looking at Jiang Nansun who was destroying his own stage, Yuan Xudong calmly counterattacked:
"You sleep so quietly and never talk in your sleep. I must have not woken up in the morning and took the things in the dream as reality. But it doesn't matter. After all, what I said is the truth. Just consider it as my way of thanking uncle and aunt!"
"Pooh~~"
Jiang Nansun glared at Yuan Xudong who was talking nonsense, and couldn't help but spit lightly, and said with an embarrassed look:
"Yuan Xudong, you are just a dog that can't spit out ivory. You just talk nonsense!"
"Nan Sun!"
Without waiting for Yuan Xudong to open his mouth to refute, Jiang's mother glared at her daughter Jiang Nansun and said in a reproachful voice:
"Xiao Yuan helped you so much, how did you talk to Xiao Yuan?"
"Yes, Nansun!"
Jiang Pengfei on the side chimed in:
"Dad taught you since you were young that girls should be well-educated and well-mannered. How can you say bad words?"
“I’m so pissed off!”
Seeing that her parents were speaking for Yuan Xudong and the culprit Yuan Xudong was still secretly making fun of her, Jiang Nansun stomped her feet and pulled Zhu Suosuo into the house, but was scolded by Grandma Jiang at the dining table again.
She said that she did not come home last night and that girls should have their own manners and reserve, etc., which made Jiang Nansun very depressed. Zhu Suosuo, who was listening silently on the side , thought to herself that your granddaughter has been taken advantage of by others, so how can she have any manners and reserve anymore.
After Yuan Xudong followed Jiang's mother and Jiang Pengfei into the house, he gave the gifts to everyone in the Jiang family one by one, including Zhu Suosuo and Jiang Nansun, who both received a small gift.
When the aunt of the Jiang family finished serving the wine and food and was about to go back to the kitchen to eat, Yuan Xudong gave her another small gift to thank her for taking care of Jiang Nansun for so many years. When the aunt walked back to the kitchen in surprise, Jiang Nansun couldn't help but roll her eyes at Yuan Xudong and said sarcastically:
"Yuan Xudong, you are quite good at winning people's hearts!"
"Thank you for the compliment, but you're wrong. I'm not trying to win people's hearts, but to express my gratitude sincerely. I'm not very good at speaking, so I can only express my gratitude with a gift."
Seeing that Jiang Nansun wanted to say something, Mother Jiang glared at her and said meaningfully:
"Nan Sun, eat more vegetables and talk less. If you are so willful, who will dare to marry you in the future?"
Hearing what Mother Jiang said, Jiang Nansun's face turned slightly red and she started to eat quietly. Even Yuan Xudong became quiet, fearing that Mother Jiang would look at him. Seeing him lowering his head to eat, Zhu Suosuo on the side felt angry and amused, and could not help pinching his thigh under the table.
Yuan Xudong looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to him. He immediately glared at Zhu Suosuo, signaling her with his eyes to let go. Instead, Zhu Suosuo looked at him provocatively, exerted even more force with her hands, and twisted them left and right in various ways, deliberately provoking Yuan Xudong.
Putting the bowl on the dining table, Yuan Xudong used his right hand to pick up the food and eat, and quietly reached his left hand under the table, stroking Zhu Suosuo's thigh upwards, slightly lifting her skirt and reaching inside.
Jiang Nansun, who was closest to Zhu Suosuo, was eating with her head down. She heard a faint suppressed sound in her ears, as if she had heard it somewhere before. She couldn't help but look up and saw Zhu Suosuo standing next to Yuan Xudong with a flushed face. She couldn't help but ask with concern:
"Suosuo, why is your face so red?"
Zhu Suosuo was startled when she heard Jiang Nansun's voice. Before everyone looked over, she quickly covered her face and said:
"It's a bit stuffy, maybe the air conditioner is turned up high."
Seeing Zhu Suosuo defeated, Yuan Xudong retracted his left hand, wiped it with a napkin and said with a smile:
"Nansun, Suosuo may not be feeling well. Please help her go to your room and rest for a while. I will call her when I return."
After glaring at Yuan Xudong, Zhu Suosuo hesitated for a moment and went upstairs with Jiang Nansun to rest. After they left, Grandma Jiang asked Jiang Pengfei to help her go out for a walk. Only Yuan Xudong and Mother Jiang were left in the living room. Looking at Yuan Xudong who was only focused on eating, Mother Jiang sighed and said,
"Xiao Yuan, I'll be frank with you. You borrowed 100 million from Nansun. Our Jiang family can't pay it back, and Nansun doesn't have the ability to pay you back. When I called this morning, were you and Nansun sleeping together?"
Hearing Mother Jiang's direct words, Yuan Xudong looked up at her and said:
"Aunt, don't worry. I never thought of asking Nansun to pay me back. Nansun and I are indeed together, and Suosuo knows it."
"So what are you going to do?"
Seeing Yuan Xudong admit it, Mother Jiang spoke frankly:
"Suosuo and Nansun, which one do you like?"
After taking a look at Mother Jiang, Yuan Xudong said shamelessly:
"Aunt, I like both of them, and they like me too. Suosuo and Nansun have such a good relationship, just like real sisters. Isn't it good for us to stay together like this forever?"
Hearing Yuan Xudong's words, Mother Jiang did not react much, as if she had expected it. She looked at Yuan Xudong and asked further:
"Maybe I didn't explain it clearly. If you were planning to get married, between Suosuo and Nansun, which one would you choose?"
Before Yuan Xudong could speak, Mother Jiang immediately blocked his way out and said:
"You won't stay single forever, will you?"
"Of course not!"
Yuan Xudong thought for a while and felt that it was too shameless to say that he was a non-marriageist. He thought it would be better to be more tactful and simply shirked the responsibility:
"Suosuo and Nansun, it's not a good idea for me to choose anyone to marry. A wedding can be held twice, but there can only be one marriage certificate. For the sake of the harmonious relationship between the two sisters, I think they can hold the wedding without getting a marriage certificate. It's just a piece of paper anyway. Don't worry, I'm not short of money, and I will definitely not treat them unfairly."
"Is it still considered a marriage without a marriage certificate?"
Rolling her eyes at Yuan Xudong who was trying to evade responsibility, Mother Jiang helped him make a decision:
"Although Nansun is my biological daughter, I can't let you marry her directly. That would be too unfair to Suosuo. Let them compete fairly. You can marry whoever gets pregnant first. What do you think?"
"Mom~~"
Without waiting for Yuan Xudong to respond to Jiang's mother, Jiang Nansun, who came down from upstairs, blushed and said when she heard her mother's straightforward request:
"I won't marry him. I will never get married in my life. I will just live with you. Let Suosuo marry him. They are boyfriend and girlfriend!"
Seeing that Mother Jiang wanted to say something, Yuan Xudong didn't want to argue anymore. Anyway, the initiative was in his hands, so he just needed to take safety measures in the future. Thinking of this, he ended the topic directly and said:
"Aunt, I promise you, I will marry whoever gets pregnant first between Nansun and Suosuo."
Hearing Yuan Xudong's words and seeing her mother's happy expression, Jiang Nansun was embarrassed and ran back to her room with her face covered. After she left, Jiang's mother looked at her watch and said:
"I've made an appointment with my friends to play mahjong. You go upstairs to check on Nansun and Suosuo. If grandma and Pengfei come back too late, you can stay here overnight. I'm leaving now. See you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow!"
After Mother Jiang left, Yuan Xudong was the only one left in the huge living room. Taking one look at the table full of Huaiyang cuisine, Yuan Xudong's lips curled up into a smile. This was simply the real-life version of the Hongmen Banquet, the cabbages were delivered to his mouth, just for him to taste them and then sow the seeds of hope, and in the next year a sun, or a moon, or maybe the sun and the moon shining together, or a dragon and a phoenix appearing.
With a smile on his lips, Yuan Xudong walked up the stairs towards Jiang Nansun's bedroom, while secretly planning to just plow the land without sowing seeds, leaving Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo with nothing to harvest and looking forward to it.
Walking to Jiang Nansun's door, Yuan Xudong pushed it gently. The door was not locked. He pushed the door open and walked into the bedroom. Jiang Nansun and Zhu Suosuo were hiding under the quilt and playing, unaware of the impending danger. He locked the door, turned off the crystal chandelier, and under the faint moonlight, Yuan Xudong joined in the play.
