Chapter 116 Don't be angry~
When Feng Jiashu saw his aunt ridiculing He Qiaoyun like this, he was displeased and coldly glanced at Ruan Shu, who was sitting to the side covering her mouth and laughing.
He said, "What's wrong with people from the countryside? My grandfather also came from the countryside to the city. Has my aunt forgotten her roots just because she's been in the city for so long?"
His words made his aunt and Ruan Shu feel a little embarrassed.
He Qiaoyun, however, was secretly overjoyed. In the past, when Xu Hui's various relatives were taking advantage of her, Xu Hui had never sided with her...
Auntie glanced at Ruan Shu, who understood and shifted her position slightly, moving closer to Feng Jiashu. "Brother Jiashu, that's not what Auntie meant, don't be angry~"
Feng Jiashu strongly resisted her approach and immediately stood up and sat on the single sofa next to him.
Ruan Shu felt a little frustrated, but was too embarrassed to stick to him again.
As an outsider, He Qiaoyun calmly picked up a watermelon from the table and ate it while watching.
Aunt cleared her throat and said earnestly to Feng Jiashu, "Jiashu, you've been all alone since your divorce, without even anyone to confide in. Do you really intend to grow old alone? If you continue like this, how will I face your parents after I pass away...?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jiashu subconsciously looked up at He Qiaoyun and said to his aunt, "Auntie, you don't need to worry about this."
Seeing that he was staring at He Qiaoyun, his aunt's tone became more serious: "You are the only bloodline left in the Feng family. I am your aunt, we are family, how can I not worry about you?"
As she spoke, she looked at Ruan Shu and said, "Ruan Shu is your uncle's cousin. I watched her grow up and I know her inside and out. She was divorced a few years ago and has no children. While she is still young, she can continue the Feng family's bloodline."
Feng Jiashu frowned slightly. "Aunt, isn't Tian Tian a member of the Feng family? She is Jiajia's biological daughter."
Upon hearing this, Tian Tian turned to look at her aunt, her face full of confusion.
The aunt remained calm. "It's different. She's a girl. Besides, you're raising a child for the Meng family now. In the future..." In the future, when this family fortune is passed down to her, not a single penny will be left in the pockets of the Meng family.
Before she could finish speaking, Feng Jiashu interrupted, "Alright, Auntie, stop talking. Tian Tian is still here."
Auntie gave a soft hum and didn't continue.
Aunt had never liked Tian Tian, and Feng Jiashu was afraid that she would say something unpleasant again, so he called Wang Ma.
Wang Ma took Tian Tian upstairs first.
Feng Jiashu immediately stated his position, "Aunt, you may not like Tian Tian, that's your business, and I can't force you to be nice to her. But she's just a child now, and I hope you won't say anything to her that you shouldn't."
Finally, he added, "No matter who her biological father is, she is Jiajia's biological daughter, my family, and has nothing to do with the Meng family."
The aunt's face flushed red and then turned pale as she was scolded by the younger generation. "She's your family, but isn't your aunt?"
Feng Jiashu's tone was slightly cold. "I didn't say that."
The atmosphere froze instantly, and the two remained deadlocked.
Ruan Shu stepped forward, sat down next to her aunt, and gently comforted her, "Aunt, Jia Shu didn't mean that, please don't be angry~ It's not good for your health to get angry."
Aunt sighed and said, "Fine, Tian Tian is a member of the Feng family, but you also need to think about yourself. Ruan Shu is a caring person, and I will feel at ease if you are with her."
Feng Jiashu only had eyes for his sweetheart and didn't care about anyone else at the moment, so he refused to agree.
Aunt Li came over and asked, "Sir, dinner is ready. Shall we eat now, or wait a while?"
Feng Jiashu immediately stood up. "Now, go and call Tian Tian down," he said, looking at his aunt. "Auntie, please stay for a meal."
Auntie stood up, leaning on her cane. "Well, it's time for dinner. Ruan Shu, go upstairs and call Tian Tian."
Ruan Shu smiled gently, "Okay."
With that, she started walking upstairs.
He Qiaoyun could sense that her aunt and Ruan Shu were ostracizing her, and not wanting to make a fool of herself, she said, "I have to go out for a bit, so I won't bother you any longer."
Feng Jiashu stopped her, "It's dinner time, where are you going? Even if you have something to do, eat dinner first."
Her aunt glanced at her, gave a soft snort, and couldn't wait for her to leave.
He Qiaoyun smiled faintly, "I'm not hungry yet."
As they were talking, Ruan Shu led Tian Tian downstairs. Tian Tian didn't like Ruan Shu's approach, so she ran downstairs and tugged at He Qiaoyun's clothes.
Ruan Shu then went downstairs and reached out to take Tian Tian's hand, saying, "Tian Tian, Aunt Ruan will take you to wash your hands and have dinner."
Tian Tian turned away, not letting her hold her hand, then looked up at He Qiaoyun as if to say: I don't want to go wash my hands with Aunt Ruan.
Seeing this scene, Auntie gave Ruan Shu a wink, and Ruan Shu went up and took Tian Tian's hand, "Tian Tian..."
Before she could finish speaking, Tian Tian flung her away, making Ruan Shu very embarrassed. She forced a laugh and said, "She's still shy. She'll be fine in a few days."
Of those present, apart from her aunt, no one understood the meaning behind her words.
Tian Tian pulled He Qiaoyun into the kitchen to wash her hands, and Feng Jiashu followed.
Ruan Shu watched their backs as they entered the kitchen together, looking just like a family of three.
Her aunt noticed the dissatisfaction in her eyes and patted her to comfort her, saying, "Take it slow. Men are all sentimental creatures. Once he realizes how good you are, he won't be so infatuated with He Qiaoyun anymore."
Ruan Shu nodded seriously, "Yes, you can rest assured."
Aunt laughed. "Let's go eat."
in the kitchen.
He Qiaoyun carefully helped Tian Tian wash her hands. Feng Jiashu stood aside and said, "Actually, you don't have anything to do. You just don't want to have dinner with us, right?"
He Qiaoyun paused in her hand as she rubbed the bubbles, not expecting that he would see through her little scheme so easily.
When Feng Jiashu saw that she didn't answer, he knew he had guessed correctly. He said, "Don't feel pressured. They'll be leaving soon. Let's have dinner together."
He Qiaoyun hesitated for a moment, "I..." To be honest, she was hungry after working for most of the day.
Tian Tian dried her hands, and without saying a word, led her out of the kitchen and towards the dining table.
Seeing how cooperative Tian Tian was, Feng Jiashu couldn't help but chuckle. He wiped his hands and followed her.
At the round table, Aunt sat in the main seat, and Ruan Shu sat to Aunt's left.
Tian Tian pulled He Qiaoyun to sit on her aunt's right. He Qiaoyun said awkwardly, "Sorry to bother you."
Feng Jiashu said, "Qiaoyun is staying here temporarily and has paid rent and meal fees, so she has dinner with us."
Upon hearing this, the aunt's eyes flashed with displeasure, but she politely remained silent and instead beckoned to Feng Jiashu, arranging, "Jiashu, sit next to Ruan Shu."
Feng Jiashu refused and sat down next to He Qiaoyun, but there was only a chair's width of space between him and Ruan Shu.
He said, "There's no need to be so particular about eating."
Ruan Shu, however, shamelessly moved her chair closer to him and said bluntly, "I want to sit closer to Brother Jia Shu."
