Wen Li also took out a small box and handed it to Jiang An. She smiled and said, “An’an, this is Auntie’s greeting gift. I’m a rather tacky person and like gold. Open it and see if you like it.”
Jiang An took it and opened the box. She realized that there was a sunflower made of thin golden pieces inside. It was exquisite and three-dimensional, making Jiang An’s eyes light up. “It’s so beautiful! It looks too real. Thank you, Mrs. Zou.”
Wen Li frowned slightly and pretended to be angry. “What Mrs. Zou? Call me Auntie. Are you trying to be distant from me like your mother?”
Seeing this, Jiang An changed her words and shouted, “Thank you, Auntie Zou.”
Only then did Wen Li reveal a smile and continue, “That’s right. When you were young, you liked the sunflowers my family planted. I originally wanted to use this matter to abduct you to my house and make you my daughter-in-law. 1 didn’t expect your parents to immediately plant a large patch at home and disrupt my wishful thinking. Now, I can only make a golden sunflower for you.”
Jiang An’s face turned red. It turned out that the joke she had caused had happened in the Zou family. Jiang An subconsciously looked at Zou Bai, who was standing behind Wen Li. He felt that Zou Bai’s expressionless face had a faint smile.
When Li Mei heard Wen Li mention this matter again, she couldn’t help but think more, but she also felt that it was impossible. If Jiang An was just a divorced child, it was possible to bring up the past again. However, everyone knew about Jiang Yu and Jiang Yi’s existence now. The Zou family didn’t look like they would help others raise their children.
Just as Li Mei was thinking about it, Madam Zou mentioned the children. “An’an, 1 heard that you gave birth to a pair of twins.”
The Zou family had arrived late. The two little fellows, who had followed Jiang An out from the beginning, had already gone somewhere to play with the nannies. They did not even see them.
At the mention of her children, Jiang An couldn’t help but smile. “That’s right. The two mischievous brats must have gone to look at flowers again. I’ll get someone to bring them over.”
After a while, Auntie Sang appeared with Jiang Yu in her arms.
Auntie Sang handed Jiang Yu to Jiang An and explained softly, “Little Yi is asleep. He’s a light sleeper. If he wakes up when we carry him over, I’m afraid he’ll make a fuss for a while.”
In contrast to Jiang Yu, who was sleeping like a pig, Jiang Yi was sleeping more and more lightly. Recently, he had a morning temper, so Jiang An had a.s.signed individual rooms for the two of them since last week.
When Jiang An heard this, she said softly, “Then let him sleep. Bring him over when he wakes up.”
Auntie Sang nodded and retreated to the side to wait for instructions.
When Madam Zou saw Jiang Yu’s fair and chubby appearance, she looked very blessed. She looked especially similar to Jiang An when she was young and liked her very much. She hurriedly reached out her hand. “Baby, can Great-Grandma carry you?”
Jiang Yu first looked around at Old Madam Zou and realized that this grandmother was smiling kindly at her. Just as she was about to reach out her hand, she saw Wen Li beside her and realized that she was a great beauty. Most importantly, Jiang Yu was already completely attracted by the shiny jewelry on Mrs Zou’s body. She pointed at the necklace and shouted, “Shiny… Shiny!”
As Jiang Yu spoke, she impatiently stretched out her two short hands to Wen Li. Jiang An carried her daughter over. “Madam, this is my eldest daughter, Jiang Yu. Her nickname is Little Feather. Her younger brother Jiang Yi is sleeping. When he wakes up, the maid will bring him over.”
Wen Li smiled and reached out to carry her over. “These names are quite good. They’re very suitable names for siblings. Little Feather likes jewelry just like Grandma. It seems that she’s also a money-grubber. Grandma will give you this necklace, okay?”
When Old Madam Zou saw Jiang Yu in her daughter-in-law’s arms, Jiang Yu’s eyes were fixed on the necklace. She even reached out to touch it gently. She smiled happily. “1 didn’t expect to be defeated by a necklace.”
Seeing Jiang Yu’s serious expression, Mrs. Zou smiled and said to Zou Bai, “Zou Bai, help me take off the necklace. Consider it my gift to this little feather.”
Zou Bai helped his mother take off the necklace. Jiang Yu’s gaze also shifted. She accidentally saw Zou Bai and was stunned for a moment. Her eyes no longer followed the necklace. Instead, she revealed a curious expression. Then, she revealed an excited smile and shouted loudly, “Dad!”
The louder Jiang Yu’s voice was, the more silent the scene was. Jiang An revealed an awkward smile. She was glad that only a few of them were present in the small hall. Then, she quickly explained, “She should be talking about carrying. The child’s language abilities are still developing, and her p.r.o.nunciation is not very accurate..”
