Chapter 338: Chapter 338: Preparing the Dowry in Advance
In recent years, the happiest people have naturally been the couple Jiang Chengren and his wife.
Joy filled the household! Their son finally stopped wearing a poker face!
Now, with his smiling face, he’s bound to attract many young girls and won’t have trouble finding a daughter-in-law in the future!
Both of them noticed, though, that their son smiled, but he only ever smiled in the presence of that girl named Yue Qingqing.
But that was okay because Yue Qingqing was not only pretty but also had an incredibly gentle personality.
Once, taking advantage of the moment Aze invited the girl over for a meal, they hid and secretly met her.
Just one glance, and Fu Ting started preparing the betrothal gifts for her future daughter-in-law.
They were determined to keep that young girl for their son.
She could already imagine how beautiful her future grandchildren would be.
Jiang Chengren muttered quietly, wondering whether it was too early to start preparing.
He was immediately lectured by Fu Ting, who pulled his ear.
"Too early? When you do business, you always talk about strategic planning for the long term. How hard is it for our son, with his unlucky constitution, to find a wife? Shouldn’t we plan well for him?"
Jiang Chengren immediately nodded in agreement, not daring to speak another word.
No matter how imposing he was outside, in front of his wife, he had to be docile, whether he was a tiger or a dragon.
As the old saying goes, a man who listens to his wife is more likely to be rich and successful.
Moreover, there was one more key point: The old fortune-teller hadn’t shown up for a while.
The last time he appeared, he left behind a single sentence.
"The noble person destined for that lad has already appeared, the rest is for him to grasp."
Jiang Chengren counted, and it seemed that Yue Qingqing was the new addition to his son’s life.
And tell you what!
Ever since the girl appeared, his son stopped frequently getting into accidents, managing to turn danger into safety every time.
What’s that, if not a match made in heaven!
With that thought, he also went to purchase betrothal gifts with his wife.
For the sake of his son’s future, it was indeed necessary to plan ahead.
Yue Qingqing was normally very perceptive, but she was completely oblivious to the fact that she had already been earmarked for someone else.
After all, even though Jiang Jingze was already a high school sophomore, in Yue Qingqing’s eyes, he was still a boy. How could she harbor any such thoughts?
At most, she’d occasionally gaze at Jiang Jingze’s eyebrows and think.
He’s getting more and more handsome, if Xiaoya saw him now, he would probably be shocked, his pride in his "beauty" finally met its match.
Then she’d think that when she grew a little older, she would probably be allowed to go out and find Xiaoya.
"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Jingze turned his head and saw the girl staring at him in a daze, his mood involuntarily lifted, "The food is getting cold."
"Ah, sorry." Yue Qingqing hurriedly picked up her chopsticks.
Her movements were elegant, but the amount of food she put in her mouth was not small at all.
It was enough to make anyone’s appetite surge.
Jiang Jingze picked up a ladle and served her a bowl of sweet fermented rice balls, "Try it?"
The glutinous rice balls were bouncy, and after absorbing the rice wine, they tasted sweet and delicious.
Added into the sweet fermented rice soup was lotus seed powder and egg flower, making it soft and tender; Yue Qingqing found the taste lingered delightfully on her lips.
"Tasty!"
At moments like these, Yue Qingqing would always feel a sense of happiness welling up inside her.
To her, savoring good food was unquestionably one of the great joys of life.
Jiang Jingze then served her a piece of Dongpo pork, which had a perfect balance of fat and lean meat, and glowed with a bright red sheen.
Yue Qingqing took a bite, and her eyes couldn’t help but narrow in pleasure.
"Jiang Brother, how come you’re such a good cook?"
Jiang Jingze casually tapped the girl’s nose tip with ease.
"Preparation for when I marry in the future."
Instead of waiting for my parents to arrange the betrothal gifts, why not make an effort to provide well for myself, right?
Yue Qingqing remarked that young Jiang was quite forward-thinking, and then continued to eat earnestly.
She was so focused on eating that she didn’t realize there was anything amiss about the gesture just now.
This had become a habit for Jiang Jingze over the years, at first just casually helping the girl wipe her mouth and arrange her hair behind her ears.
As time passed, more intimate gestures became natural and never raised the young girl’s suspicions.
Yue Qingqing had no idea that some kids, while appearing to be upstanding and honest, harbored more thoughts and schemes than many adults.
