Parents' Love: My Childhood Sweethearts with Jiang Weidong

Looking at Shen Jiaojiao sitting in front of her, Lin Wangshu was still a little surprised and asked in surprise, "Why did you come? You didn't even tell me beforehand."

Shen Jiaojiao gently touched Xiaoxing's little hand and said with a smile, "You have two such adorable children, of course I had to come and see them."

"Anyway, I'm so bored in the capital, so I'm coming here to relax."

As she spoke, she leaned close to Lin Wangshu's ear and whispered, "Besides, I didn't come alone."

Lin Wangshu glanced at her curiously, about to ask a question, when An Jie walked over and placed the washed fruit on the table. "Wangshu has been saying lately that she's bored at home. It's been a long time since you two have seen each other, so you can chat."

Shen Jiaojiao quickly stood up, looked at An Jie with a sweet smile, and said, "Auntie, I've heard Wang Shu say that she has a beautiful and elegant mother. After seeing her today, I believe her."

Listening to her sweet words, Lin Wangshu smiled and shook her head. Now, Ms. Anjie's favorability towards her would surely rise even higher.

Anjie loved it when people complimented her on her beauty, and she was all smiles, but she still humbly said, "I'm old now, I can't compare to you young girls."

"No way, you have such class. Compared to you, we're just like little girls." Shen Jiaojiao pressed on, showering flattery on and on.

Seeing that An Jie's gaze towards Shen Jiaojiao was becoming increasingly ardent, Lin Wangshu felt that her position in An Jie's heart was insecure, so she quickly interrupted her, saying, "Stop talking, my mom's mouth is sore from smiling so much because of you."

Anjie gave her a reproachful look, "How dare you talk to Jiaojiao like that?"

Lin Wangshu pouted, feeling wronged. "You're fickle. You've found someone sweeter, so you don't like me anymore."

“You’re a mother now, and you’re still so childish.” An Jie shook her head helplessly at her, and then said to Shen Jiaojiao, “Don’t listen to her, Auntie just likes to hear you talk.”

Shen Jiaojiao smiled and took out a paper bag and a box from the gifts she brought. "These are coffee beans that my aunt asked me to bring. She knows you also love coffee, so she insisted that I bring them."

Anjie took it blankly and asked in confusion, "Your aunt is...?"

When did she get to know Shen Jiaojiao's aunt, and how did she know that she loved coffee?

When Lin Wangshu heard Shen Jiaojiao mention her aunt, her eyes flickered, and she understood the purpose of Shen Jiaojiao's visit.

Seeing An Jie's puzzled look, Shen Jiaojiao smiled and said, "You know Zheng Jianhua, right? He's my aunt's son, my cousin."

An Jie suddenly realized, "So Xiao Zheng is your cousin. No wonder you look familiar. Both you and your sister are so handsome."

"Don't praise him. My aunt scolded him, saying that he only has a sincere heart but no brains. He only knows how to send you coffee beans but didn't think of sending you the machine as well."

Shen Jiaojiao was eloquent. She first pointed out the stupid things Zheng Jianhua had done, and then half-criticized and half-praised him.

An Jie couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this, but she didn't take it to heart. "Don't blame Xiao Zheng. He's a good kid, and you shouldn't have had to spend money on him anyway. Wei Dong has already bought one."

Lin Wangshu looked at Shen Jiaojiao and said with a forced smile, "I knew I shouldn't have let Weidong buy it so hastily, it's such a nuisance."

Back then, Jiang Defu was complaining at home that the person who delivered the coffee beans was an idiot, asking if they were just going to let people chew on dry coffee without a machine.

Lin Wangshu then realized that the coffee beans Zheng Jianhua had given her had been sitting in her home for almost half a year.

So the next day, he urged Jiang Weidong to find a way to buy An Jie a hand-cranked machine.

Hearing her teasing, Shen Jiaojiao remained unfazed and said with a smile, "It's alright, you can switch between them, use whichever one you like."

An Jie couldn't help but laugh, and looked at Lin Wangshu, saying, "Now your dad will probably say I have the manners of a capitalist's daughter again."

"Don't listen to him." Lin Wangshu pushed the things in front of her. "You've done his laundry and cooked for him for half your life. If he talks about you like that, just say he's a rich landlord!"

Shen Jiaojiao also advised, "Please accept it. It's a token of my aunt's affection. She said she'd like to try your coffee if she has the chance."

"I think that day will come," Lin Wangshu said meaningfully, taking a sip of water.

Anjie was also moved and stopped refusing. "Then I won't be polite. Please thank your aunt for me."

Then she said warmly to Shen Jiaojiao, "Don't leave for lunch today. I just bought some groceries, so let's eat at home."

Shen Jiaojiao nodded readily and said without any hesitation, "Alright, then I'll gladly accept your offer."

As soon as Anjie entered the kitchen, Dehua, who was simmering chicken soup, immediately asked her, "I overheard something, and this girl is the younger sister of the young man you've taken a fancy to?"

Anjie nodded with a smile, "Yes, it's her. She's a very polite young lady, and from what I heard from her, Xiao Zheng's mother seems quite satisfied with our Yafei."

"Isn't that a given? What is there to criticize about our Afi?"

Dehua was not humble at all. In her opinion, her children were good in every way. There was no such thing as them being unworthy of others.

“Yes, yes, you’re right!” An Jie shook her head with amusement. In the eyes of Jiang Defu and Dehua, there was nothing wrong with Yafei, and they were even more blind to her than her own mother.

In the living room, Lin Wangshu looked at Shen Jiaojiao with a leisurely air. "Tell me, you didn't just come to see me today, did you? Do you have other purposes?"

Shen Jiaojiao then slumped down, becoming more comfortable, and her previous dignified demeanor vanished. She waved her hand at her and said, "Don't mention it. I was given orders to come here."

"My aunt was overjoyed when she found out my cousin had taken a liking to a girl. Since she couldn't come herself, she ordered me to come over and make sure your family was happy. It was exhausting."

"I knew it! You were all so hunched over just now, I almost didn't recognize you," Lin Wangshu teased her with a smile.

"It's all because of my cousin." Shen Jiaojiao looked quite resentful. "For his marriage, as his younger sister, I have to do my part."

Then she looked at Lin Wangshu expectantly, "What do your family think of my brother? Do you think he has a chance?"

Lin Wangshu said calmly, "You don't need to worry about my parents. My mother is very satisfied with your brother, just like a mother-in-law would judge her son-in-law. As for my father, he usually listens to my mother."

"But I don't know what the main party means."

"Then I'm relieved." Shen Jiaojiao patted her chest. "Then there's nothing for me to do. I'll have to leave the main responsibility to my cousin. I can't help with that."

"Oh, right." Lin Wangshu seemed to remember something and said to Shen Jiaojiao, "You said you didn't come alone. Who was that person? It wasn't Zheng Jianhua, was it?"

Shen Jiaojiao raised an eyebrow and smiled, "It's him, but he's busy with important matters right now."
