Chapter 226: It's So Much Fun
Si Yan originally wanted to say something, but he didn't say it out loud.
The sentence his wife said about the younger sister being closer to the second brother than to him kept lingering in his mind.
It seemed to have been like this since they were small.
There was always an endless stream of things for the younger sister and the second brother to talk about; even after they were married, at the very beginning, the second brother's wife would also get jealous because of the close bond between the siblings.
Si Yan felt a bit unsettled; he glanced at Li Meiling, "You decide!"
In the past, his and Si Han's company development was about the same, but in recent years, with the rapid development of the economy, Si Han's foreign trade company, with the help of his father-in-law, successfully transformed.
The scale of the two brothers' companies gradually began to widen the gap.
Before, he didn't really feel there was anything to it, but he couldn't stand his wife nagging in his ear every day.
Now that the younger sister had used this news to help the second brother earn even more money, Si Yan couldn't help but feel some regret, regretting that he hadn't listened to the younger sister at the time.
Now that Si Han's company had reached a higher level, he was even busier with work.
He directly handed this stock over to his wife to keep an eye on.
This day, Tian Chang had just slept until she woke up naturally when her sister-in-law Li Meiling called her from downstairs.
The two sisters-in-law had always gotten along well; apart from favoring her own youngest daughter, Mother Si treated both sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren equally, so there had never been any friction between them.
"Let's have some tea together," Li Meiling brewed some top-grade Biluochun, "The stock that the younger sister told us to buy this time is really good; I heard you two earned quite a bit."
Tian Chang also knew that because the eldest brother bought it late, they earned less than them, so she only said, "Yes, this time we owe it all to the younger sister."
"When does the second brother plan to sell?" Li Meiling probed.
"At the end of the month," Tian Chang didn't know what she meant, "Didn't the younger sister say to sell at the end of the month?"
"But I heard that this dark horse stock will continue to rise next month." Li Meiling also felt there was some risk, so she wanted to pull the second brother's family in together, "We plan not to sell, and wait and see for a while longer."
She also knew some friends who were very good at stock investing; could those people really be inferior to whatever expert was behind the younger sister?
Tian Chang didn't understand stocks, but she knew one thing: a person must have self-awareness.
Knowing one's own worth, one must never be too clever for one's own good.
"We plan to sell at the end of the month," after all, they were sisters-in-law, so Tian Chang still advised her a bit, "The younger sister must have an expert guiding her behind the scenes; she is thinking of us, so we shouldn't make her worry too much, it's better to sell at the end of the month so everyone can have peace of mind."
Li Meiling nodded in agreement with a faint smile on her face, but in her heart, she scoffed at Tian Chang's words.
You sure know how to play the good person; why don't you mention that you bought early and earned more, while they have only just started earning!
Heh, sell then, sell! Just wait and see them get jealous when they make big money!
Fang Ting's family returned; Jiang Dacheng belonged to the category of those retired due to injury.
Si Rong heard from Jiang Cheng that he was injured by an explosion in one of his legs while participating in a demolition operation.
Such unfortunate news spreading back to the Junshuyuan really made people sigh.
Si Rong brought some wild ginseng to nourish the body; Fang Ting had a tired, forced smile on her face.
After seeing Jiang Dacheng, she went to the courtyard to talk with Fang Ting, "What did the doctor say?"
"Dacheng's situation is under control now, but he will be lame from now on."
Si Rong felt a bit uncomfortable hearing this; when they were on Haidao, Jiang Dacheng and Fang Ting's couple helped their family quite a lot.
On ordinary days, whenever they made something delicious, they would always think of them.
"Is there anything we can help with regarding your transition to civilian work?" Si Rong asked proactively.
Now that she and Jiang Cheng had returned to Huaiyang, this old place, many things were much easier to handle.
Fang Ting shook her head, "Not for now, the military arranged a job for Dacheng at the Health Bureau as a deputy director, it's quite good."
Jiang Yue, who was beside her, tilted her head and sized up Si Rong for a long while, then called out, "Grandma, where is Jiang Sinian?"
Before, on Haidao, she often heard her mother and Aunt Si Rong joke like this, saying that in the future she would be Jiang Sinian's wife; she was willing, so there was no problem calling her that, right?
Si Rong:......
Fang Ting:......
Si Rong suppressed a laugh, "Sinian is at home watching TV, go find him to play!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yue ran off happily.
She had learned a few new sets of boxing techniques and wanted to try them out on Jiang Sinian.
"It's all your fault! See if you dare to make random jokes in the future," Fang Ting chided, "Now my daughter has taken it seriously, don't think you can run away from being this grandma!"
"Why would I run?" Si Rong was well-adjusted to her status as a future mother-in-law, "Having a good in-law like you who can box and cook, I don't know how much peace of mind I have."
From the perspective of an elder, the son and Jiang Yue were childhood sweethearts, and the two families knew each other well; she was very reassured if they were really together in the future.
Fang Ting hummed twice and didn't say anything more.
She was naturally willing to be in-laws with Si Rong; the two families had gotten along for all these years and had never had a falling out.
Just speaking of this time when her Dacheng suffered such a misfortune, how many people in the Junshuyuan were laughing at them behind their backs.
Only Si Rong's couple came to the house wanting to help; only when things happen can one distinguish who is human and who is a ghost.
But the children were still young, and their road ahead was still long; these things now were just banter.
Jiang Yue first showed off her newly learned boxing techniques to the siblings Jiang Sinian and Jiang Siyu.
After finishing a set of boxing, Jiang Sinian scoffed.
Jiang Siyu transformed into a little fan girl and hugged Jiang Yue directly, "Sister Yue, you are truly amazing!"
Amazing enough that it felt like she could knock her front teeth out with one punch.
Jiang Yue enjoyed Jiang Siyu's flattery and stood on tiptoe, wanting to rub her head, but found she couldn't quite reach.
She had to give up and questioned, "Orange, have you grown fat again?"
Jiang Siyu hated the word 'fat' the most; hearing this, she unleashed a flurry of little chubby punches onto Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue was almost punched into spitting blood by her.
Fortunately, she had trained before; otherwise, she would have been beaten into internal injury by Jiang Siyu today.
Fang Ting was very busy because, having just returned, she not only had to take care of Jiang Dacheng but also had to run around for his job transfer.
Therefore, Jiang Yue spent most of her time at the Jiang Family.
The three children were also almost inseparable.
Every day when Si Rong was free, she would take them to the small park in the Junshuyuan to play.
Sometimes, it was inevitable that they would run into the couple Shen Chi and Lin Meixi.
But Si Rong always had people by her side; they were plainclothes bodyguards arranged by Jiang Cheng.
With Wu Ma also there, Si Rong was not afraid.
That evening, when she took the children to the park to play, she met Shen Chi and Lin Meixi again.
She saw Shen Chi holding a little boy, teasing him very happily.
Si Rong raised an eyebrow; uh, he was so affectionate with this child, did he know that after he went to prison, his daughter was lost by Lin Meixi and Li Xuan?
Could it be that he thought this child was born to him by Lin Meixi?
After all, having raised the child herself, Si Rong understood Shen Chi's personality very well.
It was absolutely impossible for him to be magnanimous enough to dote on a child Lin Meixi had with another man.
So, it was just as she had guessed: Shen Chi thought that was his son.
How amusing.
