Chapter 234 Mother's Worries

The spring drizzle came quietly, pattering on the ground, exuding the fragrance of the soil.

Pan Weirou sat on the sofa outside Jiang Zhongze's bedroom suite, finally waiting for his son to come back.

"Mom, why haven't you rested yet? Is there anything you want to say to me?" Jiang Zhongze's brows were filled with a gentle smile, and his words were a little more warm than usual between mother and child.

Pan Weirou shook her head helplessly and laughed. This son grew up not by her side. When talking to her, he always has more than respect and not enough intimacy. Most of the reason for this change is that she behaved very well in front of her future daughter-in-law today. Bar.

"Aze, do you want to be so obvious? Mom will be sad if you do this, and the days will be long!" Pan Weirou pursed her lips, making a rare joke with her son.

Jiang Zhongze's smile remained unchanged: "Mom, you've already said that, why should I worry about it? Besides, you've always been open-minded..."

Pan Weirou raised her eyebrows and raised her hand to interrupt her son: "Okay, no matter how open-minded I am, you are also my son, so let me ask you a question, are you looking for a partner for yourself, or for your grandparents?" A desirable granddaughter, Cheng Huan, so that they can let you mess around?"

Now it's Jiang Zhongze's raised eyebrows: "Mom, I don't quite understand what you said."

Jiang Zhongze originally wanted to explain a few more words, but after thinking about it, he changed the subject: "Mom, you may not believe what I say right now, but you might as well take this time to spend more time with Xiao Bei, just A new judgment will be made."

"But no matter what, my decision will not change in any way. I love her, love her very much, and I enjoy the time with her very much. So, Mom, I hope I can get your blessing and my father's blessing!"

Pan Weirou saw that Jiang Zhongze's stubbornness was very determined in his eyes, so he simply changed the subject: "This time the Jiang family and the Lu family cooperated in the project, you don't need the Jiang family's lawyer team at all, and at this time, persuade your grandfather to change As the legal officer sent by the Jiang family to the Lu family, have you ever thought about what your aunt will do?"

Jiang Zhongze thought that his father would talk to him about this matter, but he did not expect that it was his mother who would come forward in the end, so he was actually prepared: "Mom, don't you think that it was unequal at the beginning, of course, this world is In this way, the weak will naturally have little right to speak in front of the strong."

"But now, it is not what it used to be. The Lu family has become very powerful. Even if it does not rely on the Jiang family, it can still develop very well. However, the Jiang family must rely on the Lu family to continue to occupy such a huge buyer's market. A place."

"Grandfather's decision cannot be changed with just a few words. He clearly saw the strength of the motherland, and he also understood that we and Lu's have no choice but to abandon our previous superiority and pursue cooperation on the basis of equality. A win-win situation can help Chiang to overcome the current dilemma of stagnant growth.”

Pan Weirou smiled disapprovingly: "Even if what you said is correct, but do you still use such a high-sounding sound when you talk to your mother? Don't you think about it, what are you going to do to your aunt's face like this?"

Jiang Zhongze looked at his mother with a serious face: "I thought that you told me this was what Dad meant. Since we are talking about family affection, my aunt has been in charge of Jiang's legal affairs these years, and she has done a lot of shady things? I don't want to encourage This kind of atmosphere, I don't want such a thing to happen within the scope of my ability."

With a long sigh, Jiang Zhongze pleaded: "Mom, the past is over, and some things cannot be repeated over and over again. Even if it has nothing to do with me, Ah Hao has grown up. He looks at the current situation. Family, this sister and stepmother are very important, if we let him know what happened in the past, how can we make him feel bad, and how should we deal with ourselves?"

I was speechless for a while, although Jiang Zhongze didn't get the words out, but Pan Weirou didn't understand all these things. After a long time, Pan Weirou sighed, stood up and patted his son's shoulder lightly: "I will convey these words to your father, I will find an opportunity to talk to your aunt. Anyway, mother is very pleased that my Ze has grown up and has someone who wants to protect with all her heart!"

"Go to bed early, I will find more opportunities to get along with that girl, in fact, my mother still likes her a lot! Your father should have a good impression of her, she is a very bookish girl."

With a gentle smile on Jiang Zhongze's face, he stood up and sent his mother downstairs: "Thank you mom, we will take good care of our grandparents and live a good life."

Pan Weirou nodded, and after thinking about it, she still expressed her hidden worries: "I can't guarantee your aunt's side either. You know her temper."

"Don't worry, I know it in my heart. Even if it's a secret, I believe Xiaobei will trust me. In this matter, she was hurt the most, but according to my current understanding, she didn't reveal it in front of her family. So, we'll handle it."

Pan Weirou was a little surprised, but seeing her son speak with certainty, she was still worried: "Since you have already talked about these things, mother suggests that you should talk to her about the possible situation as soon as possible, after all, we are here this time , just for your marriage, it is very necessary to prevent problems before they happen, although money is something outside of the body, but it is often the most able to see a person, but also the most hurtful."

Jiang Zhongze understood what his mother was worried about, and nodded in response: "Okay, I understand!"

Early the next morning, Pan Weirou got up early and went into the kitchen as usual to serve her parents-in-law, but saw that Lu Beicen was already chatting with Mrs. Huang, and a scent wafted from the extra-large casserole stewed on the stove...

Lu Beicen greeted Pan Weirou calmly, and the old lady Huang smiled kindly: "Ah Rou woke up, did you sleep well last night?"

"Thank you, mother. I slept well. This place is very quiet. No wonder my parents like it." Pan Weirou replied hastily.

"Well, if you sleep well, sleep more. Here, you don't have to be so particular. You come back rarely, and you have to leave in a few days. It's not easy to get jet lag..." Mrs. Huang babbled, Lu Beicen was very It was the one who thoughtfully brought a cup of warm water to Pan Weirou.

Pan Weiju thanked him, listened to the old lady's nagging, drank the glass of water in small sips, and then joked: "Mom, I think you probably don't want to eat me. The sandwiches I made, I prefer the noodle soup made by Xiao Bei..."

The old lady Huang was in a great mood: "You can see this, you don't know, this kid's stewed beef soup is really amazing, it's the taste that has been stored in my memory for decades, don't say it's me Well, even your father, you can eat a big bowl of this beef powder."

The invited aunt walked in from the outside, holding a handful of coriander in one hand and a handful of green onions in the other, and said with a smile: "Old lady, the coriander is here, and the vegetable field is not small. We have time All kinds of vegetables, you will soon be able to eat the vegetables you grow!"

"Yes, yes, Amei, you know how to plant. Why don't you go and buy some seeds today, so that I, an old lady, can learn from you!"

Pan Weirou looked at the yearning look on the old lady's face, and for some reason, her heart was a little moist for no reason. She glanced at Lu Beicen, only to see that she was only smiling slightly, looking at the chopping board with her slightly lowered head, and she was cooking it very quickly. Beef tendon, cut into extremely thin slices...

This kitchen is not clean and spotless, but it is full of life, laughter, and the fragrance of onion and garlic. was deeply etched in memory.
