Chapter 260: The Down-and-out Rich Merchants in the Republic of China (20)
"Then...shall we go back...now?" Shao Yangui pouted, his tone full of reluctance. He and Jiang Zui hadn't had enough fun according to the plan, and now going back suddenly disrupted the plan, which made him a little unhappy.
"Do not."
"Huh?" Hearing Jiang Zui's words, Shao Yangui raised his eyebrows and said blankly.
Jiang Zui patted Shao Yangui's head and explained, "We finally got out here, so we have to have fun."
Shao Yangui hesitated and asked, "What about... him?"
"ignore him."
But he is just a protagonist. Even if the king of heaven comes, he can't disturb him and his wife from their world of two.
"But..."
Before Shao Yangui could finish, Jiang Zui quickly said, "Okay, don't say but, he's just a stranger."
Seeing that Jiang Zui looked calm, Shao Yangui no longer mentioned Du Jinyou.
Jiang Zui sent a telegram directly to Jiang Junru, saying that there were still some matters to be dealt with in Lin'an, and he and Shao Yangui would have to stay for a while longer. As for Du Jinyou's matter, he had nothing to do with the other party, so he let Jiang Junru handle it on his own.
Jiang Zui thought that Jiang Junru would handle Du Jinyou's matter in this way. Little did he know that Jiang Junru not only did not handle it, but let the situation develop.
After receiving Jiang Zui's telegram, Jiang Junru not only did not tell Jiang's mother the truth, but also let Du Jinyou live well in the Jiang family and was willing to spend money on his food, clothing and other expenses.
When Du Jinyou looked at the wardrobe full of gorgeous clothes and the delicious food on the table, he truly felt how wealthy the Jiang family was. This also strengthened Du Jinyou's determination to help Qi Mingting achieve his wish.
Time passed quickly. A month later, Jiang Zui and Shao Yangui finally toured the entire Lin'an and slowly returned to Shanghai.
Jiang Zui did not reveal the news of Jiang Zui and Shao Yan's return in advance, so Jiang's father and mother did not know that Jiang Zui and Shao Yan had returned home.
And within this short month, Du Jinyou completely conquered Jiang's mother.
The reason was that by chance, Jiang's mother had an accident and Du Jinyou happened to appear and used his medical skills to save Jiang's mother. Jiang's mother was very grateful to Du Jinyou.
In addition, Du Jinyou is eloquent and sweet-spoken, and he often makes Jiang's mother happy.
As soon as Jiang Zui and Shao Yangui returned home, everyone came to greet them.
"Master, Madam, you are back!"
"Yeah." Jiang Zui replied calmly: "Where are my parents?"
"Master, the master has gone to the bank, and the mistress is talking to Master Du."
After saying this, Shao Yangui frowned tightly and asked in confusion: "Master Du?!"
The servant quickly looked up at Shao Yangui with hesitation on his face, then looked at Jiang Zui and explained in a low voice: "It's... it's the young master's classmate Du Jinyou."
Hearing the name "Du Jinyou", Shao Yangui immediately turned to look at Jiang Zui with confusion and puzzlement in his eyes, as if asking Jiang Zui what was going on.
Jiang Zui shook his head silently, he didn't know either.
Shao Yangui knew about the telegram Jiang Zui sent to Jiang Junru.
The two thought that Jiang Junru would take care of Du Jinyou, but unexpectedly, Du Jinyou was still in the Jiang family.
Jiang Zui's tone was filled with a hint of anger as he asked, "Du Jinyou? Why is he here?"
"A month ago, Master Du came to you and said he had something important to tell you. Unfortunately, you were not there at the time, so I decided to let him stay."
The servant hesitated for a moment and said, "Didn't the master send you a telegram before? Didn't you agree to let Young Master Du stay...stay?"
Jiang Zui asked Jiang Junru to handle the matter of Du Jinyou, but he kept it secret and just let Du Jinyou stay in Jiang's house and wait for Jiang Zui to come back.
Because of this, the servants in the mansion thought that Jiang Zui acknowledged Du Jinyou's identity and Shao Yangui had fallen out of favor.
Now, the servants looked at Jiang Zui happily holding Shao Yangui's hand, and they both seemed to be unaware of Du Jinyou's affairs, and they were very surprised and suspicious.
Jiang Zui's eyes widened, and he subconsciously retorted: "When did I let him stay?!"
Seeing this, Shao Yangui secretly pinched Jiang Zui's palm to comfort him.
Jiang Zui received Shao Yangui's hint, coughed and said, "Okay, you go down first."
After the servants around him left, Jiang Zui said to Shao Yangui: "Madam, this is none of my business. I didn't ask you to stay."
Jiang Zui was afraid that Shao Yangui would be angry. Although he also liked to see him jealous, he didn't want to make him sad, even if it was a misunderstanding.
"I know." Shao Yangui replied.
Jiang Zui suddenly smiled happily, approached Shao Yangui, and whispered, "Madam, Du Jinyou and I don't have much interaction. I suspect that this person has bad intentions. You must protect me."
Hearing Jiang Zui's joking words, Shao Yangui's strange feeling was driven away. With a smile on his face, he echoed, "Okay, okay, I will definitely protect you well."
As soon as the two finished talking, Jiang's mother hurried over with Du Jinyou and a group of servants.
When Jiang Zui and Shao Yangui just arrived at the house, the servants quickly reported to Jiang's mother.
When Jiang's mother heard that Jiang Zui and Shao Yangui had returned, she was very excited and hurried out.
Jiang's mother smiled and said, "Xiaozui, Yan Gui, why didn't you tell me you were back? How was it? Did your trip to Lin'an go smoothly?"
Shao Yangui: "Well, it went smoothly."
Mother Jiang looked at Shao Yangui and said distressedly, "Yangui, you have lost weight after going out. I will ask the kitchen to give you some supplements some other day."
Hearing this, Shao Yangui smiled and said, "Is there?"
Shao Yangui has been eating and drinking with Jiang Zui for a while, and not only has he not lost weight, but he has gained a lot of weight, and his complexion looks much better than before.
How could Jiang's mother lie with her eyes open? !
"Yes, look how thin you are." Mother Jiang had a trace of pity on her face. She turned to look at Jiang Zui and her face changed. "Xiao Zui, didn't I tell you to take good care of Yan Gui? Is this how you take care of her?"
Jiang Zui hoped that Jiang's mother would treat Shao Yangui well, so he did not refute, "Yes, yes, it's my fault for not taking good care of her."
The three of them were talking and laughing happily, as if they didn't see Du Jinyou.
Du Jinyou, who was left out, looked a little embarrassed, but then he recovered and smiled. He walked forward and said to Jiang Zui, "Jiang Zui."
After saying that, he turned to look at Shao Yangui, with confusion and puzzlement in his eyes, as well as contempt that others could not see, and said: "This is..."
Of course Du Jinyou knew that the person in front of him was Jiang Zui’s original wife, but he just wanted to know how Jiang Zui planned to introduce Shao Yangui to him.
Shao Yangui, a male wife brought for good fortune in the eyes of outsiders, the young mistress of the Jiang family, and the nominal wife of Jiang Zui, is a grown man who has to act like a woman, trapped in his own little world, competing with others for her husband's favor.
He was very disdainful of people like Shao Yangui.
