The servants in the old house knew that the old man was coming back, so they prepared a sumptuous dinner in advance.
The second time Jiang Shu had dinner with her grandfather, she was no longer so nervous because she could feel that her grandfather was really good to her.
After dinner, grandpa called the two of them to the study.
He believed in Buddhism and burned sandalwood in his study, which smelled very good.
Jiang Shu casually looked at the surrounding furnishings, and felt familiar for no reason, as if he had been here before.
Fu Shiyan held her wrist and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
"It just looks familiar. I may have seen similar interior designs when I was reading, so don't worry about me." Jiang Shu showed some timidity.
At this moment, grandpa took out a simple box from the cabinet and motioned for Jiang Shu to sit down.
"This is a relic left by your grandma. Before she left, she hoped that Ayan would get married soon, but it's a pity..."
"grandfather……"
"Here is a jade bracelet, which has been passed down from your grandmother's generation. It was originally given to Ayan's mother, but something unexpected happened... Xiao Shu, now is the time to hand over this jade bracelet.
Here you go."
The box was opened, and a jade bracelet lay quietly inside. It was of gentle texture and very translucent. One look at it revealed that it was priceless.
Jiang Shu never expected that this was actually for him, so he quickly declined, "No, no, I can't take such a valuable thing. Grandpa, please keep it."
Grandpa said sternly, "Your grandma gave many instructions before she left, telling me to give this bracelet to A-yan's future wife. You are A-yan's wife now, why can't you get it?"
That's true, but she is not Fu Shiyan's wife in the true sense! She can't take over for him.
Jiang Shu was about to cry but had no tears. He looked at the man beside him for help and tugged on the corner of his clothes, meaning you should speak quickly!
Fu Shiyan felt that she had smiled a little too much recently. The corners of her eyes were slightly red at the moment, like a timid rabbit.
"Take it." He thundered.
Jiang Shu had it all written on his face: Do you know what you are talking about!
Fu Shiyan looked calm, held her slender wrist, picked up the jade bracelet and forced it on her. Her hands were already white, but now she looked very beautiful wearing this jade bracelet.
"What can't I take as Fu Shiyan's wife? If you don't take it, is it because you don't want to be my wife?" The soft tone left Jiang Shu speechless.
In front of grandpa, she can't play devil's advocate.
The key is, why didn't he follow the script when he was promised to act?
"That's right," grandpa said happily, "my daughter-in-law of the Fu family can get the moon in the sky even if she wants it."
Jiang Shu was still struggling, Fu Shiyan held her hand tightly and gave her a look.
"Jade nourishes people, wear it with peace of mind."
"Then...I'll wear it first." I definitely can't take this jade. I have to find an opportunity to return it to Fu Shiyan.
At this time, the sound of rustling rain suddenly came from outside.
Jiang Shu quickly ran to the balcony and saw heavy rain pouring down, accompanied by lightning and thunder.
She showed worry and looked at Fu Shiyan, "It's raining."
"It's raining. It looks like it won't stop for a while," Grandpa waved his hand suddenly, "Well, don't rush back. The road is not safe. Stay here for one night."
Worries came true.
Fu Shiyan had no objection, "Then let's stay one night."
Jiang Shu looked at him in disbelief. Does he know what he is talking about?
Fu Shiyan seemed not to notice her expression and walked out calmly.
