Chapter 788: Get It Done Quickly

~8 min read 1,425 words

Guo Yu clenched his fists, gnashing his teeth.

Shen Xing and the others stepped into the elevator one after another. Turning back, Shen Xing looked at Guo Yu and said: "Take some time to properly improve the team's overall strength. Don't forget your original intention for forming the team. With your current technical strength, forgive me for being blunt, you don't even have the qualifications to exchange blows with us."

Guo Yu didn't have time to retort, the elevator door had already closed.

Bai Lianghe put away his expression and looked at Shen Xing with a serious look: "We really have to hurry."

Shen Xing nodded calmly; he naturally had a plan in his heart.

That night, Jiang Yuanliang returned to "Qingyu Villa".

Different from last time, this time it was the old master who asked him to return.

Before, it was considered an unhappy parting, but more than a month had passed. Jiang Yuanliang hadn't mentioned it again, nor had he asked the old master any questions, but waited patiently.

He knew his father needed time.

Jiang Yuanmao's family and the third, Jiang Yuanyu, also returned.

When everyone was present, it seemed formal. As soon as Jiang Yuanliang got out of the car, Jiang Yuanmao pulled him aside.

"I reckon there will be a result tonight. I asked Uncle Feng, he said the old master didn't reveal anything, no one knows what he's thinking."

The eldest brother seemed even more concerned than himself.

Jiang Yuanliang was calm and composed, only saying: "The result is the same for me. If Dad doesn't agree, I still won't separate from Jingjing."

"If he doesn't agree, we'll think of other ways. There are always more solutions than difficulties."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded and followed his eldest brother into the villa.

"Dad, everyone is here, please take your seat first." Wen Shuyi stepped forward to greet them and gave her son a look.

Jiang Cheng hurriedly took the initiative to get up to support him: "Let's go, Grandpa, dinner is served."

The old master didn't look at Jiang Yuanliang either, clearly still angry with him. The more this was the case, the more everyone felt that today's matter was likely to have no outcome.

At the dining table, it was still Wen Shuyi who spoke: "It's rare for everyone to be here today, Dad, shall we have a drink with you?"

"Hmm."

The old master didn't refuse, responding with a low nasal sound.

Wen Shuyi hurriedly instructed Uncle Feng: "Uncle Feng, please go get a bottle of old cellar liquor, 65 degrees."

If the degree was low, the old master didn't like to drink it, saying it was like drinking water.

When the wine arrived, Jiang Cheng, the youngest in the family, stood up to pour the wine. Wen Shuyi looked at her son with a gentle smile, nodding slightly as if giving him a signal.

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng understood, held up his wine glass to toast the old master: "Grandpa, this first glass of wine today, your eldest grandson toasts you. There is a particularly good piece of news to tell you today."

Jiang Cheng was the treasure of the family, the old master loved him, and Jiang Yuanliang also valued him, cultivating him as the future successor of the group.

"Hmm?" The old master raised his eyebrows, finally having a bit of a smile: "What good news? Tell Grandpa."

Jiang Cheng smiled slightly and said: "Tian Tian is pregnant."

"Really?" The old master's eyebrows and eyes were happy, making the loudest sound of the night: "When did this happen?"

"Found out last week."

"Oh my, oh my, my great-grandson..." The old master was truly overjoyed; he just loved children.

"Dad, you are about to have four generations under one roof, good fortune!" Jiang Yuanmao said.

The old master held his wine glass, his hands shaking with joy: "Four generations under one roof is good, four generations under one roof is good. Come, eldest grandson, Grandpa will drink this glass of wine with you alone."

Jiang Cheng threw out such big good news right away, immediately making the atmosphere happy and relaxed.

Wen Shuyi came prepared, knowing that the old master was still angry with the second son, so she specifically saved the news until today, thinking that if the old master didn't agree, maybe there would be room for maneuver with a good mood.

Following that, everyone toasted the old master again.

With these two glasses of wine down, not only did the old master's body warm up, but his heart also warmed up.

"I called you all back today because there is something I want to say." The old master was indeed influenced, his tone was clearly much more relaxed. He raised his eyes and looked at Jiang Yuanliang before saying: "About the second one's matter."

Jiang Yuanliang was prepared, nodded gently: "Dad, please speak."

The others also fell silent, all looking at the old master.

As a result, the old master got stuck, sitting there for a long time without being able to say a word.

It wasn't that he didn't know what to say, it was just that saying it was truly difficult for him.

After brewing for a long time, he forced himself to speak: "Your matter, get it done quickly..."

This shocked everyone at the table, their eyes wide open. No one expected the old master to actually...

"Dad, you agree?" Jiang Yuanmao came to his senses and hurriedly confirmed.

Jiang Yuanliang and Wen Shuyi looked at each other, both somewhat incredulous.

The old master gave a bitter, cold snort: "Can I afford not to agree? You, the eldest brother, agree, the eldest sister-in-law also agrees, and even Master Yu has been brought out. Are my words still useful?"

"I can't afford to wait." The old master drank a glass of wine to himself and added: "It doesn't matter if I can't afford to wait, others can't afford to wait either."

He looked at Jiang Yuanliang and said: "Second Son, you are determined, so be it. I can't drag you down, and I can't drag her down even more. She is already a few years older than you. If she is dragged for another three or five years because of me, I'm afraid this child really won't be able to be born."

So what the old master just said, "get it done quickly," was to let the two settle the matter quickly and have children quickly after marriage while they still could.

"Thank you, Dad." Jiang Yuanliang calmed down quickly, full of nothing but gratitude: "Then I'll find a time to bring her back to see you."

The old master sighed and silently agreed, but he was not very happy in his heart.

The tight nerve in everyone's heart suddenly relaxed. No matter what, it was good news, so the efforts of those few were not in vain.

After dinner, Wen Shuyi said to Jiang Yuanliang: "Dad's meaning is to let you put the serious matter on the agenda as soon as possible. His words are not wrong. Whether you have children or not is another matter, you are not young anymore, you can get married first."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded: "But I have no experience in this area. Should I propose?"

"Of course!" Wen Shuyi said: "There must be a sense of ritual. This is not only your first marriage, but also Jingjing's first marriage. You must take it seriously and give her an unforgettable proposal and wedding."

"And the marital home, it doesn't matter if you live there or not, but there must be one. Write Jingjing's name alone, as a gift from our family to her. As for the betrothal gifts and dowry, you two discuss it. Anyway, Dad won't interfere in money matters."

Jiang Yuanliang nodded, his handsome face slightly flushed.

Seeing this, Wen Shuyi asked with a smile: "What? Are you nervous?"

"No..." Jiang Yuanliang smiled: "A bit excited. I don't even know how to tell her this news."

"Sister-in-law, this time it's all thanks to you and the eldest brother. Thank you so much for being willing to understand and support me. Otherwise, if it were just me, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been so easy."

Wen Shuyi said: "This isn't easy either. Since it's hard-won, you must cherish it even more. Jingjing is very good. She has suffered a lot in the first half of her life. You must be good to her in the future and take good care of her." ===== CHAPTER 789 =====
