My Little Sweet Wife

Chapter 299 - You Deserved Those Slaps I



Jiang Ruolan greeted the smiling seniors with a smile on her face, "Junior Ruolan, greetings to the seniors."

Jiang Ruolan noticed that Senior Zhou was also there, chatting with someone not too far away. All of the elders were looking in his direction.

It seemed like these old men all knew about Zhou Shufen and Xian Zihao's past. Perhaps a few years ago, they all thought that the two families' grandchildren would get married. That's why they were so surprised at this moment.

Old Chang kept smiling and exclaimed, "I didn't expect Zihao to be married. Time truly makes one feel old. Old men like us, I'm afraid we really won't be able to live for many years."

At this moment, Old Man Xian's voice was heard from the other side, "Move, move! Let this Old Man see my precious grandson's wife!"

Old Man Xian was wearing a black suit. He walked in a hurry from the crowd without anyone supporting him. When he saw Jiang Ruolan standing there, a smile almost blossomed on his old face as he walked quickly with his cane, "Ruolan, you really made grandpa wait!"

The Old Man looked a little agitated. Jiang Ruolan was startled and she was afraid that the Old Man would fall to the ground. She quickly walked over and supported him. "Grandfather, you have to be careful."

"I'm fine, don't worry. I won't fall. This Old Man is still strong. Right now, the important thing is… you spoiled girl! It's good that you're willing to come back." Old Man Xian patted her hand gently and whispered in a voice that only she could hear, "Silly child, it was hard on you. Grandfather was inconsiderate at that time. I should have found someone to watch over that stinking brat. If I really did that, nothing would happen on that day. Sigh."

Jiang Ruolan was filled with gratitude as she supported the Old Man. "Grandpa, it's all in the past now."

"It's good that you don't take it to heart. Good child, just you wait. Grandpa will ask Xian Family to arrange a better wedding for you. If anything happens to Zihao, I will tie him up!"

"Haha, looks like Old General Xian is very satisfied with your grandson's wife?"

"My precious granddaughter-in-law is very sensible, she knows her place. After not meeting her for a while, this Old Man is very anxious!" Old Man Xian glanced at them and said half-jokingly, "And there's also Zihao. Being able to meet this girl was a good fortune for my Xian Family. Back then, when they were getting married, I didn't know this girl properly, but now, I felt relieved knowing that my good grandson has good eyes!"

"You are indeed lucky, Old General Xian." At this moment, another elderly man next to Elder Chang laughed. "A year ago, I heard that Zihao ignored your wishes and opposed marrying a partner of your choice. I also heard you were so furious at that time. I was wondering how Zihao dared to lay a hand on Old General Xian and challenging his authority?"

Old Man Xian grunted. He was right. Back then, what angered him the most was that Xian Zihao had ignored his opposition and challenged his authority in the Xian Family.

"Old General Xian is already so old, but his bearing hasn't diminished at all. Now, even his grandson's wife seems to have borne your bearing."

"Hasn't your grandson been married for almost half a year? When will your grandson plan to give you great-grandchildren?"

Everyone had their own doubts. There were those who wanted to provoke Old Man Xian, those who wanted to curry favor with him, and those who were watching from the sidelines. However, most of them were there to give Xian Zihao and Jiang Ruolan their blessings.

Jiang Ruolan could only smile. Old Man Xian patted her hand as he calmly said, "My great-grandson is already in this girl's stomach. In a few months, this Old Man will be able to hold him and wander around together in the courtyard!"

"Grandpa ~"

Jiang Ruolan called out to him in embarrassment, but the Old Man looked at her happily. His eyes were filled with endless happiness that she had returned with.

To Jiang Ruolan, Old Man Xian's love and care for her was already her greatest recognition. She was so touched that she didn't know what to do. She could only let the Old Man pull her and introduce her to the elders one by one.

"What is the child going to be called?"

"Did you go and take a look? Is it a boy or a girl?"

In the midst of the greetings, Jiang Ruolan felt that she almost couldn't handle all of the enthusiasm. When she turned around, she could see Xian Zihao's smiling gaze. She then continued to chat with the Old Man and the warm elders.

This was a gathering of the older generation. Although the topic often changed to Xian Zihao and her, the main topic was still the greetings from the older generation. When the Old Man saw Jiang Ruolan's face stiffened, his heart ached.

"I'm fine, grandfather. I'm not tired." Jiang Ruolan smiled.

"You are not tired, but my great-grandson is tired. Zihao, accompany Ruolan to rest. Don't let her be too tired." Old Man Xian slowly let go and give her back to Xian Zihao.

Xian Zihao gently embraced her waist. Seeing the tiredness in her eyes, his heart ache. He knew that Jiang Ruolan would get easily tired due to her pregnancy and after spending so much time on such an occasion, who wouldn't get tired? Even if she kept smiling, her fatigue was really obvious.

Since the Old Man had already said this, Jiang Ruolan didn't refuse and obediently listened to his words.

Xian Zihao then led her to a nearby table, pulled the chair, and helped her sit down.

"It seems that Zihao and Miss Jiang really loved each other!" At this moment, someone looked over from the Old Man's side and spoke sincerely.

"How can he not love his wife? They only got married a short while ago, and she's already pregnant ~" Another elder mocked from the side.

Old Man Xian also nodded with a smile. Jiang Ruolan didn't feel too good for being the center of attention. Xian Zihao immediately poured her a cup of scented tea, and she sipped on it.

Of course, Senior Zhou also saw this scene clearly, but he didn't come over to greet them. Xian Zihao didn't spare a glance at Senior Zhou, but Jiang Ruolan could feel that Senior Zhou's gaze was a bit cold.

When she thought that Zhou Shufen probably did not come to Beijing with him, that beautiful figure had already entered her sight.

Today, Zhou Shufen wore a long black gown with a short black mink jacket over her body. Her long hair was coiled up in a similar manner. She looked grand and dignified. She still possessed an extraordinary temperament that belonged solely to Senior Zhou's granddaughter.

But in Jiang Ruolan's eyes, the moment she saw this equally strong woman, she could also see Little Fishie lying in bed sick, almost to the end of her life.

But even though she knew about Xiaoyi's illness, she still couldn't let Zhou Shufen go!

Her daughter had a malignant brain tumor, but she, Zhou Shufen, while making her daughter's dream of meeting her father come true, she also created a future for herself.

What a clever woman she was.
