"Uncle agreed. You will come back to the Zhou family with me to celebrate the New Year this year." Zhou Wu took Jiang Deng's hand and squeezed her palm. "Don't worry, no one will arrest you."

Jiang Deng: [……]

She glared at him: [Why didn’t you say so earlier? ]

She packed too hastily.

Jiang Deng took out a small mirror from her bag, looked around, confirmed her makeup was in good condition, and patted Zhou Wu: [Do you think I look good in this outfit? ]

"Very beautiful." Zhou Wu sat aside and watched her dress up, feeling very happy.

[I didn't ask you if you are pretty or not. I am pretty anyway, so you don't need to tell me.]

Zhou Wu: “…”

"Okay, of course. My parents will be very happy to have such a beautiful and generous daughter-in-law." Zhou Wu closed her mirror and pulled her into her arms. "Okay, stop looking. It's fine."

【Really? 】

In fact, Jiang Deng knew in her heart that Zhou's father and mother probably didn't like her. At most, they were just being a little bit fond of her because of their son's love for her.

Zhou Wu saw her lack of confidence and immediately comforted her: "Really, I want a wife, I like her, how could they not like her."

【Who wants to be your wife? 】

Jiang Deng glared at him and started to act pretentiously again.

Zhou Wu didn't like her, so he held her in his arms for a long time before she finally behaved herself.

On the way, Jiang Deng suddenly remembered something and exclaimed:

【I forgot to prepare a gift! 】

Zhou Wu laughed: "Ayu, you don't need to prepare anything. I've prepared everything. It will be fine once the baby arrives."

Zhou Wu wanted to kiss her a little, but was worried about smudging her lipstick, so he gave up in the end.

The car soon arrived at the Zhou family’s old house.

Zhou Wu had already called his parents in advance to tell them about this.

When the two got out of the car and entered the house, Zhou's father and mother were sitting on the sofa in the living room talking about something. At this time, they saw the two people come in side by side, stand up, and have smiles on their faces.

"Dad, Mom, Ayu and I are back."

[Hello, uncle and aunt.] Jiang Deng smiled and stood there politely greeting them.

"Ah."

"Xiao Deng is here, come and sit down." Zhou's mother waved at the two of them.

I met Zhou Zhengwen once some time ago, but I haven't seen Zhou's mother Jiang Deng for a long time.

Zhou's mother's name is Liu Si. She is nearly fifty years old now, but she is still well maintained. She has a dignified and graceful temperament. When she smiles, there are fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and her face is very kind.

Zhou's father and mother were in a family marriage and their relationship was not very good.

In recent years, Zhou's mother has mostly lived abroad and rarely comes back, so it is rare to see her on weekdays.

As they spoke, Jiang Deng and Zhou Wu sat down on the sofa with Zhou's father and mother and chatted for a while.

It was mainly Zhou Wu and his father and mother chatting.

Jiang Deng had difficulty typing, so when she was asked questions occasionally, Zhou Wu would speak for her and translate for her.

After a while, Zhou Zhengwen stood up and called Zhou Wu into the study.

Before Zhou Wu left, he quietly squeezed Jiang Deng's palm.

The two men left one after the other.

Suddenly, only Zhou's mother and Jiang Deng were left on the sofa.

Jiang Deng felt a little uncomfortable.

【aunt.】

"Xiao Deng, don't be nervous."

Seeing her embarrassment, Zhou's mother smiled and pulled Jiang Deng's right hand, took off the emerald green jade bracelet she had been wearing on her wrist, and put it on Jiang Deng's wrist.

Jiang Deng froze.

"I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to prepare any gifts. This was passed down to me by Xiao Wu's grandmother when I got married. I'm leaving it to you now."

Mother Zhou patted Jiang Deng on the back of his hand:

"Xiao Wu is still immature, you should bear with her more on weekdays."

[No, Zhou Wu is fine.]

Jiang Deng knew that Zhou's mother was being polite.

In fact, she is far more immature and emotional than Zhou Wu, and it is obvious that Zhou Wu is more tolerant of her on weekdays.

Zhou's mother just felt sorry for her because of the kidnapping incident when she was a child.

Because after all, although the Zhou family had agreed on compensation with the Jiang family, only Jiang Deng was involved, and she was indeed hurt as a result.

After Jiang Deng finished speaking, he came to his senses and suddenly realized that Zhou's mother couldn't understand, so he quickly took out his mobile phone to type.

Mother Zhou held her hand and smiled at Jiang Deng:

“I understand.

"Good boy, I'm sorry for you."

Jiang Deng suddenly felt his eyes a little sore and blinked.

The emerald green jade bracelet on her wrist was so bright against her cold white skin that it was dazzling in the sunlight.

She didn’t come to Zhou’s house for the New Year in her previous life.

This bracelet should have been left to Wen Taotao later.

She shouldn't have stayed.

【aunt……】

Jiang Deng wanted to take off the bracelet.

Mother Zhou held her hand and shook her head at her, "Just keep it if I give it to you. If you take it off, I will be angry."

……

By the time Zhou Wu came down from the study with his father, it was almost noon and it was time to go to the Zhou family's ancestral home.

Zhou's father, Zhou's mother, and Zhou Wu and Jiang Deng got into two cars respectively.

After getting in the car, Jiang Deng spoke before Zhou Wu asked:

[My aunt didn't make things difficult for me and was very kind to me.]

Zhou Wu's eyes curved, "Really? Ah Yu, I've already told you that mother is very good and she likes you very much."

【Um. 】

[My aunt also gave me a bracelet.] Jiang Deng raised his wrist to show him, [It’s too expensive. I actually want to…]

Zhou Wu noticed the new jade bracelet on her right wrist early in the morning.

He recognized it as the one his mother always wore, and was so happy that he interrupted her immediately and raised his eyebrows:

"Take one and try it if you dare!"

"Ayu, you are not allowed to take it off. Just keep it if you give it to me. It looks so beautiful."

This bracelet was passed down to his daughter-in-law, and Zhou Wu certainly knew its meaning.

Jiang Deng was held in his arms and slowly lowered her wrist.

Forget it.

Just keep it.

At worst, I can return it when we break up in the future.

【What did your uncle say to you? 】

so long.

Jiang Deng remembered this.

"Nothing, just work." Zhou Wu didn't want to talk more, and Jiang Deng was not interested in these things anyway.

【Have you been criticized?】

When Zhou Wu mentioned this, his face turned a little unhappy. "Yes, my father said he would give me another year. If I don't produce any results, I can go back home and inherit the family property."

Zhou Wu felt a little annoyed when he thought about this and frowned.

One more year...

Jiang Deng narrowed his eyes.

It didn't take that long before his career was well established.

[It's a good thing that you didn't get beaten.] Jiang Deng patted Zhou Wu on the back and comforted him, [I believe you can do it. At worst, you can just go back and inherit the family property.]

"Baby, you are really good at comforting people." The expression on Zhou Wu's face turned into a wry smile.

If I were taken back to the company, I would completely lose the initiative and be at the mercy of my father.

Even if he and Jiang Deng didn't want to have children, they probably wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure from their elders.

【Really, I believe you. 】

Jiang Deng hugged him reluctantly and gave him encouragement.

Not to mention his previous life, Zhou Wu was indeed very powerful later on, and he led the Zhou family to a higher level.

Even though she was twenty years old at this time, she believed in him wholeheartedly.

From childhood to adulthood, they have been together for such a long time, and in her heart he has always been omnipotent.

"Really? Baby, do you trust me so much?"
