C175 Dismissed
Ning Jiang turned around to look when she heard footsteps behind her.
When she saw Uncle Kiu, her expression was slightly unnatural.
Uncle Kiu quickly went forward. There was some surprise. "Is young master's madam really back?"
Ning Jiang stood up and nodded to Uncle Kiu. "Uncle Kiu, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you?"
Uncle Kiu looked guilty. "madam of young master, everything is fine. I am so happy to see you again."
Ning Jiang smiled.
Bai Ya got up and said, "Jianguo, go in and see if dinner is ready. Let's eat."
"Okay, old mistress."
Uncle Kiu said to Ning Jiang, "Young Madam, if you have time later, can I treat you to a cup of tea?"
Ning Jiang hesitated and nodded. "Sure."
Uncle Kiu entered the house.
Bai Ya smiled and said, "Look. This family, old and young, has feelings for you."
Ning Jiang was silent and lightly pursed her lips.
When she saw Uncle Kiu again, she felt somewhat guilty.
Fortunately, she was no longer a husband and wife with Luo Hanshang.
She was not in the mood to argue with Qinxin. This was also good.
Uncle Kiu quickly walked out and invited Bai Ya and Ning Jiang to have dinner.
The two of them returned to the villa.
Luo Hanshang was the only one standing in front of the dining table.
Ning Jiang looked in the direction of the study room.
Bai Ya asked Luo Hanshang, "Is your grandfather not coming out?"
"Auntie brought the dishes into the house for him to eat."
Ning Jiang helped Grandma to the dining table and sat down. "I'll go and invite Grandpa out for dinner."
Bai Ya pulled her back. "No need. Just sit down and eat."
"But..."
It's fine, I understand your grandfather's temper. Even if he isn't angry with you, he still has to do it today. Let him do it, I'll tell him later. "
Ning Jiang did not move. Luo Hanshang walked over and pushed her onto the seat.
"Listen to Grandma. Grandma's words are the authority in this family."
Luo Hanshang sat beside her. Ning Jiang did not stand up again.
On the side, Uncle Kiu, who was standing behind Bai Ya, had mixed feelings in his heart.
Bai Ya said, "Jianguo, don't stand up. Sit down and eat together."
"No, old mistress. I just ate it." As he spoke, he went forward to help catch some vegetables for old mistress. "Today young master's madam is back. You have to eat more."
"Okay." Bai Ya looked at Kiu Jianguo and smiled. "I am in a good mood today. If I am not old, I would want to drink a cup. Hanshang, you can drink a few cups for Grandma and Jiang."
Ning Jiang waved her hand. "No, no, Grandma. I quit drinking."
Luo Hanshang said, "Forget about drinking. I have to drive her back later."
"Go back?" Bai Ya frowned and asked, "Jiang can't stay here? " Where do you want to go? "
Luo Hanshang said calmly, "If you can persuade her to stay here, I will go pick some wine now."
Bai Ya looked at Ning Jiang. "Jiang, are you not willing to live with us?"
"Grandma, you misunderstood. It is not that I am not willing to live here, but it is not suitable for me to live here."
"What do you mean by 'not'? If you don't want to stay here for Zhuo Yi, then... Then you stay for me. There are so many people in Luo Yuan Garden. It's not like you are living alone now. It's too lonely."
Ning Jiang was a little embarrassed and said, "Grandma, actually I prefer to live alone. Be quiet. If you need me in the future, give me a call. I will come to see you. As for the suggestion of living here, forget it. "
Bai Ya helplessly said, "When you say this, it seems like I am forcing you."
I did not mean that. "Ning Jiang smiled. "I like to be at ease."
"Okay, okay. Then I won't force you. But you have to keep your word. When I invite you, you must come, okay?"
"Okay." Ning Jiang nodded and did not say anything else.
Halfway through the meal, the auntie walked in with a teenage girl.
Ning Jiang only took a glance and recognized that it was LuoLuo.
It had been more than five years and LuoLuo looked even more delicate.
LuoLuo was changing her shoes at the door and looking at Ning Jiang at the dining table.
The two of them looked at each other. Not long after, LuoLuo looked away.
She walked to the dining table and politely said to Grandma and Luo Hanshang, "great grandma, second uncle, I'm back."
Grandma nodded at her. "Yes, good girl. How's your tuition?"
"It's good."
[Have you eaten yet?]
"I've eaten. Teacher's grandmother cooked a lot of delicious food."
"That's good." Grandma pointed at Ning Jiang and asked, "Do you still know who this is?"
LuoLuo looked at Ning Jiang again.
Ning Jiang smiled gently at her, "LuoLuo, long time no see."
LuoLuo quickly lowered her eyes, "Yes, she is second uncle's ex-wife."
Hearing LuoLuo's careless tone, Ning Jiang felt a little uncomfortable.
She got up and walked to LuoLuo's side. She half bent her body and said, "LuoLuo, you have grown up. You are becoming more and more beautiful."1
LuoLuo did not look at her and only said lightly. "Thank you Auntie."
Ning Jiang's heart was even more uncomfortable. It had been five years and LuoLuo had also distanced herself from her.
Luo Hanshang said, "LuoLuo, go change your clothes. If you want to eat later, come down. If you don't want to eat, just study in the house."
"I'm not hungry. I don't want to eat anymore." After LuoLuo said that, she turned around and went upstairs.
Ning Jiang returned to the dining table and sat down. She suddenly did not have any appetite.
Grandma helped her to get some food. She said, "Go away. It wasn't the biggest blow to your grandfather and me. It was the greatest damage to LuoLuo. When you left, LuoLuo looked for you every day and cried for a long time. Later on, she seemed to have gotten used to it. You shouldn't be too concerned about her current attitude. This child does not have any bad intentions. "
Ning Jiang nodded. Grandma, it is fine. I will not take it to heart. "
This dinner could not be said to be very pleasant, but at least it was much better than what Ning Jiang had expected.
After the meal, Ning Jiang did not plan to stay any longer. She excused herself from Grandma and went to Grandfather's study door and knocked on the door.
Her grandfather's unhappy voice came from inside, "Ignore me."
Ning Jiang hesitated and said, "Grandfather, I am Ning Jiang. Today I will go back first. I will come to see you another day."
Luo Benru snorted. "No need."
Ning Jiang exhaled. Bai Ya patted her shoulder. "It's okay. When you leave later, I will go find him."
Ning Jiang smiled, "Grandma, then I will leave first."
"Okay."
Ning Jiang and Luo Hanshang came out together. Just as they were about to go to the car, Uncle Kiu came out.
"madam of young master, please wait a moment."
Ning Jiang turned around and Luo Hanshang was a little surprised. "Uncle Kiu, do you have something to talk to her about?"
Kiu Jianguo said, "young master, Young Madam and I may not have seen each other for many years. Can you let me talk to Young Madam alone?"
