This war ended in a way that Wei Hongmian had not expected.
On the way back, Wei Hongmian was not in a good mood. She leaned against the car window and stared blankly.
Jiao Shuzhen knew that this girl had fallen in love.
Yang Fan had mentioned many times that Wei Hongmian was proud and arrogant. She had met all the children in the Capital City's circle, but none of them were interested in Shao Yibai.
Everything had its vanquisher!
Jiao Shuzhen sighed. From her point of view, Wei Hongmian was a one-in-a-hundred daughter-in-law. She was helpless against her disappointing son …
"Auntie!" Wei Hongmian suddenly called out when they were almost there.
"Hongmian, just tell me what you want …"
"Auntie, you're Yibai's mother. You know him …" Wei Hongmian's eyes were red. "How can I make him like me? I'm not convinced. How am I worse than that girl? If we've known each other for a long time, Yibai and I are childhood friends … "
Jiao Shuzhen's heart ached at her words. Her heart softened when she saw Wei Hongmian's tearless face.
"Yibai is stubborn. Once he decides on something, it's hard for him to change his mind. He's the same as his father. If I hadn't taken the initiative back then, we wouldn't be a family today. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I forced him to do it, haha … "
Jiao Shuzhen shook her head and laughed as she spoke.
The speaker did not mean it, but the listener did.
Wei Hongmian's eyes suddenly lit up. She lifted her head from the car window and murmured, "What's done is done?"
Her thoughts were actually in line with Jiao Shuzhen's. However, neither of them was willing to say it out loud.
The car stopped at the entrance of the Wei Family's courtyard. Wei Hongmian got out and waved goodbye to Jiao Shuzhen.
Jiao Shuzhen looked at Wei Hongmian's lonely back and suddenly called out in a low voice, "Hongmian, are you willing to do it?"
She did not feel victorious after returning from the cafe. She was still bouncing around as usual.
Of course, Shao Yibai did not know that his mother and the two women who were fighting for him had just had a 'contest'.
The weather in Capital City was even hotter in August. The scorching sun scorched the earth, and everything made a sizzling sound.
Just a sprinkle of chili and cumin and the barbecue would be ready.
Since Su Qingcheng was on summer vacation, Shao Yibai picked a high-end, small, and well-furnished apartment from the house under his name to "hide his mistress".
80 square meters of space. Although it was called hardcover, it was indeed minimalist.
The house was filled with greenery, a two-seater sofa, a few household appliances, and hazy blue curtains blocking the scorching sun.
Su Qingcheng exercised less, and with the air conditioner, the only thing left in her life was to eat and drink.
Unfortunately, this Sichuan girl was very particular about food. Hence, the Su Qingcheng who was on vacation was the Su Qingcheng who had gained weight from eating.
It was impossible for Shao Yibai to watch over her, but he could come back to see her once a month.
After spending a few days together, Shao Yibai still had to return to the army.
From the beginning to the end, Su Qingcheng had never mentioned to Shao Yibai that Jiao Shuzhen had come to force him to abdicate. Su Qingcheng only cared about being with Shao Yibai.
She also believed that Jiao Shuzhen would hide it well.
When it was close to the start of school, Shao Yibai came back to visit his family. He did not visit Su Qingcheng first. He called her and told her that he had a family dinner.
Su Qingcheng smiled. "Go ahead! I'll eat by myself then. I can have a spicy duck blood curd tonight … "
Shao Yibai found it funny and whispered, "Don't eat too much spicy food. It's not good for your stomach. Also, I'm afraid of spicy food. If you eat too much spicy food, I can't even kiss you! "
As Su Qingcheng scolded him for being a hooligan, she was secretly delighted.
She would be able to graduate in another year. When that time came …
Su Qingcheng did not take Jiao Shuzhen's warning to heart.
You like your daughter-in-law, I'll marry my man!
When Shao Yibai returned home, Jiao Shuzhen had already ordered the kitchen to prepare a table full of dishes. Other than Shao Yibai's favorites, there were also a few Hokkien dishes.
"Mom, are there guests coming today?"
Shao Yibai took a shower and changed into a clean white T-shirt. He dried his hair and came out.
Jiao Shuzhen smiled and said, "You'll know in a while."
Before she finished speaking, the guard ran in and reported, "Chief Wei's daughter has arrived."
Jiao Shuzhen hurried out to welcome her, leaving a dumbfounded Shao Yibai behind.
Wei Hongmian?
Before he could recover from his shock, he saw Wei Hongmian following behind Jiao Shuzhen.
She had dressed up meticulously. She was wearing a long pink sleeveless dress and her slender arms were fair and slender.
Her long hair was casually tied into a low ponytail. She had a lazy and casual beauty. Compared to Shao Yibai's impression of her, there was a hint of gentleness.
Other than attending banquets, Wei Hongmian usually wore casual clothes and rarely wore dresses.
Shao Yibai and Shao Jingshan looked at each other and communicated through their eyes, 'What's my mom trying to do?'
Shao Jingshan, 'How would I know?'
Shao Yibai, 'Don't you know that you're a woman?'
Shao Jingshan, 'She's your mom. Why wouldn't you know?'
The two men looked at each other for a while. On the other side, Jiao Shuzhen had already asked someone to bring Wei Hongmian's gift in.
"I brought Uncle Shao a set of four treasures of the study. Uncle Shao has better hobbies than my dad. You're proficient in calligraphy and chess. My dad doesn't have any hobbies other than shooting …"
Wei Hongmian sat down as she spoke. Shao Jingshan and Jiao Shuzhen exchanged pleasantries.
Shao Yibai could not interrupt, so he just sat there and laughed.
After a long time, the topic finally shifted to Shao Yibai.
"Aunty, during the old cadres' gathering, my dad's former subordinate gave me a pair of 80 year old red wine. I brought one bottle for Yibai to try …"
Wei Hongmian glanced at Shao Yibai as she spoke with a shy expression.
The last time she gave him an antique gun, this time she gave him a red wine.
Shao Yibai thanked her, but he saw that Jiao Shuzhen had already brought him a goblet.
After filling four goblets, Jiao Shuzhen suddenly said to Shao Yibai, "Your stomach hasn't been well lately. Drink some nourishing soup before you drink!"
'When did I have a bad stomach?'
Before Shao Yibai could say anything, Jiao Shuzhen had already pushed the nourishing soup in front of him.
When Shao Jingshan heard that, he smiled and said, "My stomach hasn't been well either …"
"Go and rest!" Jiao Shuzhen rebuked. "Don't you have any shame fighting with a child?"
Old Shao had not retired yet. He held a high position, but he was a slave to his wife at home.
Wei Hongmian could not help but laugh.
Shao Yibai had always been 'obedient'. He lifted the bowl of soup and drank a few mouthfuls.
Jiao Shuzhen started to ask everyone to eat, but her gaze drifted to Wei Hongmian.
The woman was extremely nervous. She did not dare to look at Shao Yibai, so she drank the red wine gloomily.
Good wine was good wine. After drinking for a while, Shao Yibai felt his whole body heat up. When he looked at Wei Hongmian, he suddenly felt that she was very beautiful …
"Mom, what kind of tonic did you put in the soup? It's hot to drink this in the summer … "
Shao Yibai rubbed his temples as he spoke. He looked very uncomfortable.
Jiao Shuzhen was so shocked that she dropped the chopsticks in her hand.
Shao Jingshan looked at his wife in confusion, then he glanced at his son.
Jiao Shuzhen quickly said to Wei Hongmian. "Hongmian, quick, help aunty to help Yibai to the bedroom …"
