Prestigious Family Marriage: Uncle vs Young Wife

Chapter 389

Old Madame Jing says those words and then starts to talk again with Mother Lu. Everyone is enjoying the chat and no one is minding about Jing Fen Fen’s protest. She is furious but still acts like a gentle lady.

Jing Suo Suo is happy. She takes initiative to talk to Lu You Yuan and acts like he is really her Jie Fu (brother-in-law).

Lu You Yuan doesn’t speak with assurance but he doesn’t make Jing Suo Suo feels awkward. He doesn’t speak a lot but his voice is deep. Somehow it makes Jing Fen Fen feels agitated and she glares at Jing Suo Suo. Jing Suo Suo is smiling happily toward her.

During the dinner, Old Madame Jing purposely arranges Jing Fen Fen to sit down beside Lu You Yuan. Jing Fen Fen begs everyone to change seat with her, but no one is willing. At last she asks toward Ye Qing Xin.

“Xin Xin, let’s change seat…..” She speaks on Ye Qing Xin’s ear. She is begging her.

Ye Qing Xin smiles: “I want to sit down together with Bo Yuan. I’m sorry Fen Fen Jie.”

“Sao Zi, I beg you. Just once okay?” Ye Qing Xin is younger than Jing Fen Fen. Jing Fen Fen always calls her name, this time she calls her Sao Zi.

She really doesn’t want to sit down beside Lu You Yuan. Both families seem to have same intention now. It’s too late to protest now.

“I’m sorry Fen Fen JIe.” Ye Qing Xin rejects politely. It’s clear that Old Madame Jing is planning all of these for Jing Fen Fen, how can she sabotage it.

“….” Jing Fen Fen feels betrayed by her family.

On the dining table, Old Madame Jing asks Jing Fen Fen to take food for Jing Fen Fen. Mother Lu asks Lu You Yuan to pick up veggies for Jing Fen Fen. JIng Fen Fen looks around the table and takes a green chili pepper for Lu You Yuan.

She remembers that year this kid is afraid to eat chili pepper.

Jing Fen Fen smiles happily: “Our family chef is an expert of making this. Try it out. It’s really good.”

Lu You Yuan: “…….”

“You kid, though our family chef is an expert with this. How can you let a person just eat chili pepper.” Old Madame Jing knows that her granddaughter is purposely tease Lu You Yuan. She looks at a maid. A maid hurriedly takes a clean plate and wants to change Lu You Yuan’s plate.

Mother Lu’s turn awkward. She knows of her son’s appetite. Whether Jing Fen Fen does it with purpose or not, she somehow dislikes this.

“Because of You Yuan’s health, he cannot eat too spicy….”

The atmosphere turns stiff and rigid. Jing Fen Fen smiles innocently: “You Yuan cannot eat spicy food. My most favorite food always tastes spicy. We cannot enjoy food together. I think we are not suitable to go together. Just cancel the plan tomorrow. Just in time our department has an important meeting.”

“Everyone does have different taste. You cannot force anyone to compel to your taste. You can order food based on your taste. How can you just conclude that you guys are incompatible.” Old Madame Jing glares at Jing Fen Fen.

“It’s okay.” Lu You Yuan speaks up, he stops the maid to change his plan. “Though in the past I didn’t eat spicy, but in the future I can gradually adapt.”

Then he eats the first green chili pepper then the second one.

Jing Fen Fen is stupefied. He looks like he doesn’t eat it with difficulty. Could it be she remembers it wrongly? Or perhaps he has changed his liking?

It can’t be, she clearly sees Mother Lu’s sad expression.

Could it be he is just acting?

Jing Fen Fen glances at him. This man, is he crazy? How can he force himself to eat it?

“You Yuan, it’s fine.” Mother Lu’s face looks so worried.

Lu You Yuan finishes all the green chili pepper. If no one sees it his lips, anyone might thinks that he is eating Chinese cabbage.

Lu You Yuan puts down his chopsticks and drinks a gulp of red wine. He smiles at everyone and says calmly: “Everyone, let’s eat. It’s getting cold.”

Mother Lu looks at Jing Fen Fen and says nothing. She just lowers her head and eats. She acts coldly now.

Old Madame Jing notices something from Lu You Yuan that makes her happy.

Jing Fen Fen, on the other hand, feels guilty and doesn’t purposely make things hard for Lu You Yuan. She lowers her head and acts like an invisible man. The dining room turns silent. But after a while, Jing Fen Fen notices a slice of oyster omelette is put on her bowl. She raises up her head and looks at Lu You Yuan. Jing Fen Fen is confused.

“I remember that you like to eat this. But it’s been a long time. I don’t know if you have same taste as before.”

Lu You Yuan acts like he is an old friend of Jing Fen Fen.

Jing Fen Fen wants to speak up that she doesn’t like that food anymore but Old Madame Jing is faster than her: “She still likes the same one, still the same. There’s no difference right, Fen Fen?”

JIng Fen Fen: “…….”

Jing Suo Suo watches this. She notices that Lu You Yuan is not bad. He has a good family and ability. He seems to be interested to Jing Fen Fen. Moreover, they were growing up together. There’s a high chance he will be her Jie Fu (Brother-in-law).

Everyone on the table seems to notice Lu You Yuan’s intention toward Jin Fen Fen.

Ye Qing Xin moves closer to Jing Bo Yuan and whispers on his ear. “It seems that Jing family’s daughter will get marry soon. Congrats.”

Jing Bo Yuan says nothing. He just takes a rolled up pastry for Ye Qing Xin.

After the dinner, all the men are going to small living room. While the women are gathering in the living room.

Mother Lu seems to not act as friendly as before. Especially when they are talking about Jing Fen Fen as she notices that this eldest sister of Jing family doesn’t respect her son. Her son is not a bad quality of man. He is quite excellent.

Jign Fen Fen seems to be happy that Mother Lu seems to dislike her.

At 08:30 p.m. Lu family members leave JIng family house.

Jing family members go out to send them. The time they are gone, Old Madame Jing pinches Jing Fen Fen’s arm. “You are impolite, what were you doing before? You purposely tried to nitpick?”

Jing Fen Fen tries to avoid the Old Madame Jing’s attacks. She is in happy mood: “Mother Lu is unhappy toward me. I think tomorrow the plan to go to lavender manor should be cancelled right? I’m tired. I’ll go back first to my room. Goodnight, everyone.”

Then she runs away back to her room.

“Look at her!” Old Madame Jing glares at Jing Yan. “How can you don’t mind her!”

Jing Yan is calm. “Fen Fen is thirty years old. She has her own thought. If she is unwilling, there’s no way we can force her.”

“You…..” Old Madame Jing is unhappy. “You are too lenient toward her.” Oldl Madame Jing gets inside the house furiously. Jing Yi follows her and tries to calm her down.

Ye Qing Xin holds Jing Bo Yuan, they are strolling in the garden.

“I retrieve my words, It seems hard to marry her out.”

Jing Bo Yuan intertwined his five fingers with Ye Qing Xin’s. “You know it clearly.”

Ye Qing Xin smiles.

They both get back inside the house. Just in time they hear Old Madame Jing’s words. “It’s late Xiao E, you should just here. I still leave your previous room for you. You guys can return to each of your own room and have a rest.”

The triplet were sleeping before during the dinner. Now they are awake. The nannies are letting them play in the living room. No one knows when they will be tired again.

He Shu E takes initiative and says: “I have nothing to do now. If nor just let Nian Nian to sleep with me tonight.”

Ye Qing Xin hasn’t had time to refuse and she is glared by Jing Zong. Jing Zong is warning her. Ye Qing Xin is silent for a while and refuse politely. “No need Ma. No one knows when they will be tired as now they just wake up. Tomorrow you need to work. I and Bo Yuan can do it. You and Pa should have a rest.” Then she says to the nannies. “Bring the kids upstair.”

The triplet are acting strangely today, they keep on pestering Ye Qing Xin. Everyone wants to be held by Ye Qing Xin. They want Ye Qing Xin to help them take shower. Mu Mu is much better, during the shower, he sits down quietly. Whereas Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao are playing with water and dancing happily. It makes the water splashing everywhere.

Jing Bo Yuan lets the nannies to leave and have a rest. He and Ye Qing Xin take care of their own children. Toward Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao’s actions, all along he is so patient. After the shower, he doesn’t forget to apply lotion for each one of them.

The time both Ye Qing Xin and Jing Bo Yuan have their own shower too, Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao are still in good spirit. They are running around the room.

Because of the kids, the temperature in the room is set to twenty seven. Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao just had their shower but they are playing hard that their whole body are sweaty again. Meanwhile, Mu Mu just sits quietly and plays with his plane.

Ye Qing Xin lays down on her belly and places her chin lightly on Mu Mu’s kneel. “Mu Mu, do you know what is this?”

“Fei Fei—- (Flying)…” Mu Mu’s words are clear that Ye Qing Xin can hear it clearly. She is excited and plays a game with him.

“Mu Mu, where is your little hand ah?”

Mu Mu raises his left hand.

“Where is your little leg ah?”

Mu Mu’s chubby hand points to his leg.

“Where is your small belly ah?”

Mu Mu pats on his belly.

Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao notice that their Mama is playing with Di Di. They just run over to join the game.

Jing Bo Yuan is standing outside the window and calls someone. He can see from the window his happy wife and kids. The kids are clever and handsome. It’s really a great image.

“Bo Yuan? Bo Yuan? Are you listening to my words?” Cheng Ru Yu asks but there’s no reply. He starts to raise his voice: “Bo Yuan? What are you doing?”

Jing Bo Yuan regains himself and says: “I’ll consider whether I can cooperate with the party, I also need to consider the benefit to cooperate.”

“Okay I got it. I am helpless as my cousin in Toulouse keeps on bothering me. But whether you want to cooperate with her, you can make your own decision.”

Jing Bo Yuan: “She is not in the country but she can keep on bothering you. She is quite capable.”

“You should not know about it. My phone almost blows out because of her. Tell me do you think that this is the reason why Lin Yun doesn’t want to marry her though there’s no accident, she is too annoying.”

Cheng Ru Yu says nothing more about it. He then talks about the dinner gathering of Jing and Lu family.

“I heard that Jing Nai Nai has intention to match Fen Fen with Lu family’s youngest son. Is it true?”

“Em.”

“Fen Fen is thirty years old. In any case she is your own cousin. You should pay more attention to her.”

Jing Bo Yuan notices that Cheng Ru Yu is letting him to help to matchmake Jing Fen Fen and Lu You Yuan.

“You seem to care a lot for Fen Fen.” Jing Bo Yuan says.

Cheng Ru Yu laughs and says: “Though we cannot be lovers, but we can be friends right. After all we all know each other for a long time, shouldn’t I care about her?”

“I’m afraid that someone has ulterior motive.”

“What do you mean?”

“I think you understand it.”

“……” Cheng Ru Yu turns silent for a while and speaks up again: “Are you opposing me?”

“I don’t care about you guys. It’s just don’t make Fen Fen and Suo Suo fight each other. If not Nai Nai, Ye Ye, San Shu, and San Shen will not let you off.”

“I know.” Cheng Ru Yu says seriously: “That’s why Jing Suo Suo and me are just friend now. For Fen Fen, could you help me to match make her with someone. A proverb says that the best way to forget someone is falling love with another one.”

“I’ll not intervene in other’s people business. Okay, the kids want to sleep now. I’ll hang up first.”

Then Jing Bo Yuan just hangs up without waiting for Cheng Ru Yu’s response.

Ye Qing Xin is playing happily with the kids. She turns her head and looks at Jing Bo Yuan. “Cheng Yi Sheng’s call?”

Jing Bo Yuan nods.

It’s almost ten o’clock. The kids start to yawn. Ye Qing Xin asks Jing Bo Yuan to go down and bring up a boiled rice-flour noodle for them. Nian Nian and Zhao Zhao are eating half-heartedly as they keep on running around. Ye Qing Xin has berated them several times. But the two kids aren’t afraid of her. Ye Qing Xin is irritated, she puts down the bowl and catches Nian Nian. She wants to slap his bottom.

“Let me feed them.” Jing Bo Yuan takes the bowl and sits down on the bedside. He says calmly. “Come here and sit down well.”

Mu Mu is silent, he keeps on sitting on the bed side. The other two hear their Papa’s voice and immediately changes from evils to angels. They sit down beside Jing Bo Yuan and eats scoop by scoop. The big bowl of rice-flour noodle is finished very quickly.

Ye Qing Xin is unhappy when she watches it. The kids usually are very close to her yet they are more obedient toward their Papa.

“Why ah? They usually like me more than you? Why don’t they listen to my words?”

Jing Bo Yuan puts down the bowl and helps to wipe the kids’ mouth. “The better relationship you have with them, they will not be afraid of you. Of course you cannot control them that way. It’s an easy reason. How can a top student like you cannot understand it?”

Ye Qing Xin wants to says something but Jing Bo Yuan holds up Zhao Zhao and puts him on the bed. He continues: “In a family, especially a family with little kid. Between husband and wife, there’s should be one that play “good cop” and one to play “bad cop”. It can help to educate the kid. You are more suitable to be a gentle and kind mother.”

Ye Qing Xin asks: “Don’t you afraid that when they grow up, they will not like you?”

Jing Bo Yuan places the kids on their own bed. Then he turns his back and holds her. He kisses her.

“I’m okay with you by my side.”

Ye Qing Xin blushes. She then lowers her head. She notices the kids are opening their eyes big and looking curiously at what happened between Mama and Papa. “What are you doing? The kids are watching us.”

Jing Bo Yuan laughs.

“You still laugh.” Ye Qing Xin glares at him. Everyone keeps on saying to her that words and deeds of the parents are first example for the kids. What if the kids go to school and just kiss other little girls randomly?

The light is off. The kids are asleep.

Ye Qing Xin covers them all with the blanket.

Then she turns her back, she bumps into a warm familiar embrace.

She doesn’t hesitate she just hugs his neck and kisses him.
