Chapter 1087
On this day, a thick layer of snow fell on Longcheng.
Jiang Jiang Yuanliang and Shen Shen Jingjing decided to move into their newly purchased marital home on this day.
They had seriously discussed this matter with Aci.
Shen Ci had no objections, and she had also bought a new house next to her mother's marital home, so she could go over and live there at any time.
She had no obsession with whether the family members should live together; as long as her mother was happy, that was enough.
Shen Shen Jingjing was also following the old man's wishes, especially since this was Master Yu's advice, which the old man valued particularly highly.
They had started packing since last night, and with the whole morning today, it was finally mostly finished.
Naturally, it wasn't Shen Shen Jingjing's turn to do the work, but she was shocked looking at the pile of things packed up: "I didn't feel like there were that many things, how did so much get packed up?"
Brother Xingxing, while sealing a box with tape, laughed: "Don't kid yourself, Mom. Your bedroom alone is over seventy square meters, and the closets are all stuffed full. I don't know how many clothes my sister bought for you."
Shen Ci, on the other side, poked her head out upon hearing this and added: "Dad bought plenty too. There are many I've never seen Mom wear."
With the children saying this, Shen Shen Jingjing felt a bit embarrassed.
"I'm getting fatter and fatter with this pregnancy, how could I fit into them? Last week when your aunt came over, I even picked out a big bag of clothes for her to take back."
Shen Xing stood up, trotted over to his mother's side, and wrapped his arms around hers: "Mom, did you save a room for me in the new house?"
Shen Shen Jingjing looked at her son sideways and smiled: "Why? Don't want to live with your sister?"
"Of course not, it's just that we have one more home now, right?"
"I saved one. Such a big house, there's definitely a room for you. Even Sister Xiao Min's room is saved."
"What about the cars?" Shen Xing asked again: "What about those cars in your garage? Are they moving over there too?"
As soon as he spoke, Shen Shen Jingjing saw through his intentions.
Over the years, her daughter had bought her several cars, she had bought one herself, the old man had gifted one, and Jiang Yuanliang had also bought her one.
In the past, when she went to the company often, she would take turns driving them, but for the past half-year of pregnancy, she had been strictly forbidden by the family from driving herself, and many of the cars had gathered a layer of dust.
With Brother Xingxing bringing this up, Shen Shen Jingjing knew what he was after.
"Your sister and your dad have bought you several cars already, and you're still eyeing my cars?"
Shen Xing scratched his head embarrassedly: "I'm just asking. You haven't driven in a long time, what if you don't want to drive in the future either?"
She would still need to drive, but Shen Shen Jingjing knew she didn't need that many cars. With more and more cars, she herself was getting a headache.
So she said: "Mom will take the first car your sister gave me and the one your grandfather gave me, and the rest will be left for you."
"Really?" Shen Xing's eyes widened in surprise, and he hugged his mother and acted spoiled: "Thank you, Mom."
"Be gentle, don't knock Mom over." Shen Ci couldn't help but say when she saw this: "You're really something, you want Mom's cars too. If you like a new car, why don't you just tell me?"
Shen Xing shook his head happily: "Anyway, Mom agreed."
Shen Shen Jingjing also smiled and said to her daughter: "Give them to him, those two cars are completely enough for me."
At this moment, Jiang Jiang Yuanliang came down from upstairs and said to them: "The moving company is here, we should probably head over too. Dad went over early to wait. These past few days, he's had people clean the place over and over again."
With the moving company's workers handling it, they didn't need to exert any effort.
Knowing Shen Shen Jingjing was moving, Deng Deng Xiwen and Wang Wang Zhaoning both came to see her off.
"I thought you were happy living with the children and didn't plan to move to the marital home," Deng Deng Xiwen said, holding Shen Shen Jingjing's hand.
Shen Shen Jingjing told the truth: "Actually, I didn't plan to move. The old man decided it, saying Master Yu had calculated that it would be better for the child to be born in the marital home. How could we dare to refute Master Yu's words?"
Back then, her marriage to Jiang Jiang Yuanliang passing the old man's approval was all thanks to a single word from Master Yu.
Deng Deng Xiwen nodded repeatedly: "That's true, Master Yu is highly respected, his words should be believed. Anyway, it's not far, you must come back often, and I will go visit you too."
Wang Wang Zhaoning also stepped forward and said: "I was originally thinking that when your two children are born, Aunt Jing, I could come over and help you take care of them."
"No need, there are enough hands at home. The nanny and confinement nurse are already prepared, no need to trouble you." Shen Shen Jingjing said, smiling and inviting the two: "When I give birth, you two come over to see the baby."
"That's for sure."
After loading the trucks, Jiang Jiang Yuanliang drove Shen Shen Jingjing off first, with the moving company's truck following behind.
Then Shen Ci and Brother Xingxing drove a car, the purpose being to drive both of their mother's cars to the new home.
"Auntie, Sister-in-law, you two go back first. Once things are settled over there, we will definitely hold a housewarming party, and I'll notify you then."
Who knew that just as Shen Ci was about to get into the car, Deng Deng Xiwen suddenly came to her side and pulled her aside.
Shen Ci was stunned, blinked in confusion: "What's wrong, Auntie?"
Deng Deng Xiwen lowered her head slightly and spoke cautiously: "Aci, Auntie wants to ask you, has there been anything going on with Gu Lianxing lately?"
"Gu Lianxing?"
Shen Ci frowned, confused for a moment, and slowly shook her head: "No, she's perfectly normal. We were drinking together just two days ago, I didn't feel anything was wrong."
As she spoke, she looked at Deng Deng Xiwen and asked uncertainly: "But Auntie, the 'situation' you're referring to, which aspect do you mean?"
"Oh my, it's that situation..." Deng Deng Xiwen pursed her lips and blurted out: "Is she dating someone?"
Shen Ci's body stiffened, and an alarm went off in her head.
So, Gu Lianxing and Jiang Jiang Lingchuan's relationship is still a secret from the family?
These two are something else, having a secret relationship right under the parents' noses every day, exciting enough!
"This... I don't know." Shen Ci grinned meaningfully: "Should... not be, right?"
As a result, Deng Deng Xiwen believed it immediately: "Oh, if you say no, then it must be no. I thought if she were dating, she would definitely be the first to tell you, since you two are best friends."
Shen Ci nodded with a fake smile: "Yes, that's for sure, she would tell me."
"Then you and Brother Xingxing go ahead. Remember to tell me about the housewarming party, and your uncle and I will bring Gu Lianxing along." Deng Deng Xiwen waved her hand and didn't pursue the questioning further.
But Shen Ci hesitated, stopped, and turned back, tentatively testing the waters for Gu Lianxing: "Auntie, you asking me this question secretly, is it because you don't really support Gu Lianxing dating?"
"No! Not at all! How could that be?"
Deng Deng Xiwen denied it immediately, three times in a row: "I just felt she's been a bit strange lately, so I guessed if she was dating."
"Oh." Shen Ci nodded upon hearing this, still pulling at the corners of her mouth with a fake smile: "Then I'll be going now, Auntie."
