Chapter 28 Parting Gift
Shen Jiao hadn't seen her two brothers for a long time. After finishing the pig brain soup, they agreed to go back to Dongyuan to reminisce about the past. Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked out of the restaurant, she saw Feng Ma running in hurriedly from the backyard.
Feng Ma is an elder in the Shen family and rarely acts so unruly. Shen Jiao's first reaction was that something had happened to Fu Sui'er.
She quickly stepped forward to support Feng Ma, "Don't be anxious, talk slowly."
Mother Feng took a deep breath and whispered a few words in Shen Jiao's ear. Shen Jiao's expression immediately changed and she turned to look towards the restaurant.
At that moment, Fang Meixu came out, holding onto the wooden door. It was no exaggeration to say that this meal had nearly killed her. With her life almost gone, Fang Mei no longer had the heart to curry favor with the Shen family. She just wanted to get back to Juyuan and lie down. But as soon as she stepped out of the restaurant, she felt a compelling gaze.
Fang Mei raised her head, her eyes meeting Shen Jiao's. She was startled, swallowed her saliva, and put on a smile, "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Jiao sneered and looked Fang Mei up and down, "Mrs. Jiang gave birth to a good daughter." After saying that, her eyes turned cold and she turned and left the flower hall.
Shen Che and Shen Rang also guessed that something must have happened to Fu Sui'er. They glanced at Fang Mei with a hint of doubt, then turned around and followed her to Dongyuan.
The smile on Fang Mei's lips froze completely, and her fingertips were tightly gripping the door. Ayi wouldn't be so ignorant. It must be that damn girl who caused trouble for her again.
The aunt in the restaurant glanced at Fang Mei and walked over with a smile, "Mrs. Jiang, be careful with your hands."
The ferocious expression on Fang Mei's face instantly subsided, and the corners of her mouth twitched, showing a dignified and gentle look. Before she could speak, the aunt added, "This is hundreds of years old golden nanmu. If you damage it, we can't afford to pay for it."
"..." Fang Mei's mouth twitched and he smiled through gritted teeth.

Qinyuan Courtyard.
"Old man, drink some chrysanthemum tea to clear your heart and reduce internal heat."
Just as Shen Zhi had placed the tea set on the table, someone arrived from outside the garden. He glanced at Shen Zhuang and then calmly poured him some tea before turning and leaving the yard. What did the person say? Shen Zhi paused, pondered for a moment, and then returned to the pavilion.
Before he could speak, Shen Zhuang asked, "Who's here?"
Shen Zhi, "Miss Jiang."
Shen Zhuang was slightly startled. He had expected the Third House to come and cause trouble, but he hadn't expected Jiang Huashan to be the first to show up. Shen Zhuang put down his teacup, "I'm afraid they're here to beg for mercy?"
Shen Zhi, "If the old man is in trouble, I will ask Miss Jiang to go back?"
"No." Shen Zhuang shook his head, "Let her in."
Shen Zhi was slightly surprised, nodded in agreement and left the yard.
Shen Zhuang stared at the chrysanthemum petals in his hand, his thoughts drifting away unconsciously.
After receiving Shen Guiling's promise last night, he immediately went to the ancestral temple again.
There must be someone with great power behind the Yao family's successful career in recent years. Now that the presidential election has entered the final stage, the third son of the Yao family is determined to win. But it is really against common sense that Yao Ge set fire and killed people at this time.
But if you look closely, it is not difficult to find something strange. Almost all the officials who were removed from office due to the arson case were the mortal enemies of the Yao family. As soon as the news came out, Yao Lao San's voice far exceeded that of other political opponents.
Over the years, although the Shen family and the Yao family are relatives by marriage, their political paths are not consistent. Yao Ge has obviously been bewitched by the Yao family and wants to tie the Shen family and the Yao family together under the guise of personal vendetta. Shen Guiling is the entry point. As long as they have the handle of the illegitimate child, Shen Qian and the Shen family will always be controlled by others.
Shen Zhuang gave Shen Qian a few pointers, and he immediately understood the seriousness of the situation. Fortunately, Shen Qian wasn't too stupid and knew how to break off a gecko's tail.
The Shen family has a solid foundation, and losing the position of chairman of the council is nothing more than spending a few more years, but if they are controlled by others, they will always be at a disadvantage.
In the political arena, even a large family will be destroyed if you are not careful. Shen Zhuang is responsible for the prosperity of the family and dare not be careless at all.
Even after convincing the boss, he still couldn't fall asleep, feeling that there was something he hadn't figured out. It wasn't until today, when he saw Jiang Huashan and Fu Sui'er fighting in the side hall, that his blocked thoughts suddenly became clear.
Fu family!
It has been almost a week since Shen Jiao brought Fu Sui'er back to Shen Garden, but there has been no movement from the Fu family. How can this be unreasonable?
Shen Zhuang suddenly realized a problem. In recent years, the economy of Country A has developed too fast, and many chaebol families have been promoted. However, the Shen family has been keeping a low profile because of the loss of Shen Xi. The Lion King has been silent for too long, so how can a growing kindergarten teacher be willing to be inferior to others?
So some people can no longer hold back...
"grandfather……"
A clear and pleasant voice interrupted Shen Zhuang's thoughts. The scattered chrysanthemums in the cup gradually focused. As he looked up, he saw a girl with a bun on her head running towards him lively.
Shen Zhuang felt warm in his heart and quickly stood up to greet him, "Slow down! Slow down!"
Jiang Huashan was still holding a scary big bad wolf stuffed animal in his arms. "Grandpa, are you calming down?"
Shen Zhuang wasn't actually angry, because the Shen family was about to strike back, and if they discovered the Fu family was truly involved, Shen Zhuang wouldn't show any mercy. But Fu Sui'er was still young, so to consider her feelings, Shen Zhuang took the opportunity to attack her and send her back to Xiangying.
As for Jiang Huashan, he actually had his own selfish motives. Fang Mei, as a mother, was unreliable. If he was gone one day, Jiang Huashan would definitely be wronged, so he wanted to arrange Jiang Huashan and Fu Sui'er together.
Although Fu Sui'er looks spoiled and willful, he has good intentions. If the two children can put aside their grudges, they will definitely get along well. In addition, Shen Jiao's personality is that she loves the whole family and protects her own shortcomings, so she is more suitable than anyone else to be Jiang Huashan's support.
But Shen Zhuang didn't intend to tell this to a child. He deliberately kept a sullen face and asked, "You knew that Grandpa would be angry?"
Jiang Huashan felt a little embarrassed. She had impulsively attached herself to Fu Suier. As for why she had deliberately started a fight in the side hall, she naturally had a plan.
"Grandpa, I know I was wrong. This time when I go to Xiangying, I will definitely correct all my bad habits and reflect on my mistakes."
"Do you really think so?" Shen Zhuang was a little surprised. He originally thought that Jiang Huashan came to plead for mercy to avoid punishment.
Jiang Huashan nodded, "Really, it's not just me, I will also urge Sui'er to make progress together."
Shen Zhuang couldn't help laughing. "You two always quarrel when you meet. Grandpa is worried that the Xiangying old house will be demolished by you."
The affection in these words warmed Jiang Huashan's heart.
"Grandpa." She handed the big stupid wolf in her arms to Shen Zhuang in a flattering manner, "This is for you. Let it accompany you when I'm not in Shen Garden."
Shen Zhuang looked at the ugly cute doll handed to him by the girl and was in a good mood. "Are you here to give grandpa a parting gift?"
Jiang Huashan nodded.
Shen Zhuang suddenly felt reluctant to let her go. He took the doll and touched her head. "Xiao Hua'er, will you blame Grandpa for being cruel?"
Jiang Huashan shook her head. Although she was reluctant to part after just meeting, she knew that her grandfather must have his reasons for making any decision. As his granddaughter, she just needed to believe him.
