Jiang Miao was not surprised at all. She took a sip of tea and slowly put the cup down: "Good tea, but it's still not as mellow as the tea I drank when I went to Wuyi Mountain with your grandfather when I was sixteen."
Jiang Heyu responded anxiously: "I have plenty of time now. If you still want to go, I can accompany you. But grandpa is not in good health and probably won't be able to go."
Jiang Miao shook his head: "Some things can be remembered for a lifetime the first time, but no matter how good they are the second time, they won't be like that. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Jiang He got straight to the point: "I want all of your shares in Jiang's."
The smile on Jiang Miao's face faded: "This is not a small amount."
Jiang Heyu: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't treat you badly. You can make an offer."
Jiang Miao smiled and said: "I know what you mean. The Jiang Heyu I know is not the kind of man who really gives up standing up just because he is in a wheelchair. It's just that I sold the shares to you. How can I face the other few people?"
A nephew?"
Jiang Heyu: "Sister-in-law, do you still want a bowl of water to be balanced? In our family, when has a bowl of water been balanced? When I was able to move, my grandfather favored me and gave me everything, so that the two families would treat me
I was so filled with hatred that I couldn't stand up anymore, so I was immediately put at home to 'recuperate' to this day. Now it's Jiang Yuan who is prospering in the company. Grandpa never thought that a bowl of water would be flat, he only wanted the development of 'Jiang's'.
No matter whose hands it is."
Jiang Miao understands his father better than Jiang Heyu, and understands his stubbornness, pedantry and machismo.
Like her second and third brothers, she once wanted to help out in the company, but was dismissed by Jiang Zhongguo, who said, "As a daughter, just stay at home and let the men do the work of building a career."
For so many years, she only owned shares in the company and never intervened in any of the company's business. She was young and energetic at the time, so she went to study abroad in anger, and then she stayed there and married a British man. Yes.
Things at home are out of sight and out of mind.
Jiang Heyu: "I don't know if you have looked at the company's financial statements. The company has been going downhill in the past two years."
Jiang Miao: "Xiao Yuan has just taken on a heavy responsibility and his performance is not as good as before. This is understandable. You have worked hard for so many years to develop the company into as brilliant a place as before."
Jiang Heyu shook his head: "Sister-in-law, you know, grandpa has only been around for a few years. Although the shares of my family and my second uncle's family are about the same, both brothers Jiang Yuan are in the company. Now many people in the company belong to them. Na Ye and I
The thing...has no real power in the company. When grandpa leaves, the company will inevitably fall into the hands of the second uncle's family. Do you want to see the company collapse like this?"
Jiang Miao said frankly: "I have no power at all in the company. To be honest, it won't have much impact on me if I don't collapse. My source of income is not just the dividends from 'Jiang's'. Besides, I really care about it."
No emotion."
What she meant was that she didn't want to get involved in family disputes, although among her nephews, Jiang He had the closest relationship with her.
Jiang Heyu didn't speak anymore. He brought the tea cup to his lips. The tea was already cold and the taste was no longer strong. He sniffed it a few times and drank it all in one gulp.
After putting down the tea cup, he smiled softly: "Sister-in-law, I won't force you. But if one day, they make the same request to you, I hope you choose me."
Jiang Miao also smiled and said, "I will consider it. I will discuss it with your uncle when I go back this time."
Jiang Heyu frowned: "This is our family's matter, what are you discussing with him?"
Jiang Miao: "You are married anyway. Of course, things between husband and wife must be discussed and done. This is called respect."
Jiang He and Yizhi: Discuss? No, there are no such two words in his dictionary. He doesn't need to ask anyone's opinion on what decision he wants to make. Besides, how can they discuss his...wife Cen Yinyin? Does he want to
Ask her, should I buy my sister-in-law’s shares?
He couldn't imagine how she would answer, because in his heart, Hua Lai was completely out of his career circle.
She is just a "wife" in name only who serves him, a poor bastard from another family.
Looking at Jiang Heyu's reaction, Jiang Miao knew that he had never discussed it with his niece-in-law. She smiled and sighed: "But I still hope that our family will be harmonious."
Jiang He was noncommittal about his expectations for her: "Let's go, grandpa is waiting for you at home."
After leaving the restaurant, the atmosphere between the two of them returned to normal, as if the previous negotiation in the private room had never happened.
Jiang Miao pushed Jiang He and said, "I'm so full. I feel like I won't be able to eat anything at night."
Jiang Heyu said: "That's not possible. This family dinner tonight is specially for you to catch the wind and wash away the dust. Everyone will come. If you don't eat, grandpa will be angry."
Jiang Miao sighed exaggeratedly: "Actually, I don't like this kind of occasion. These sisters-in-law of mine are like drama queens."
Of course they include Liang Hongying, Jiang He and Xiaobuyu.
When the car drove back to Jiang's house, the servants were already waiting outside the door. As soon as the car stopped, everyone gathered around and said hello.
Liang Hongying came forward with a smile: "Oh Miaomiao, you haven't been back for a long time. You miss me so much. Come in quickly. Dad just woke up from his nap and is in the hall."
Jiang Miao also had a smile on her face. She took Liang Hongying's wrist and leaned closer to her: "Sister-in-law, I see that your temperament is much better than before. Are you happy to be married to your daughter-in-law? The more you live, the girlier you become!"
Liang Hongying's face froze, and she tried her best to be calm: "You are still so good at talking..."
The maid took Jiang Miao's luggage out of the carriage and was about to put it in her room. Jiang Miao took one look and called the maid: "Sister-in-law Wu, that bag is not mine."
Sister-in-law Wu: "I'm sorry, eldest lady, I looked next to the suitcase and thought they were together..."
Jiang He came over and stretched out his hand to Mrs. Wu: "Give it to me, it belongs to Yin Yin."
Jiang Miao came over curiously: "What is it? A gift bought for her?"
Jiang Heyu said bluntly: "No, she bought the clothes herself."
Liang Hongying said a little bit eccentricly: "Aren't you going to school? Why are you buying clothes? Is going to school just a pretense? If you don't study hard, you just go shopping."
Jiang Heyu knew that his mother didn't like anything about Hua Lai, even if Hua Lai's two clothes combined were not enough for her.
He rarely protected Hua Lai for once: "Didn't you say that women just love shopping?"
Liang Hongying didn't answer in front of Jiang Miao, but just said: "Just spoil her."
Jiang Miao shook Liang Hongying's arm: "Sister-in-law, a good man is a man who loves his wife. The way your son protects his wife is really charming!"
Liang Hongying rolled her eyes deliberately: "He is so old, but you, a sister-in-law, still protect him like this, for fear that he will suffer a little loss."
