Mrs. Chu knew they were coming and ran downstairs happily.

However, when they learned that only the two of them were coming, Tuantuan did not come along.

He immediately showed a disappointed expression and complained, "Why did you come by yourself without bringing Tuantuan? Really, I thought Tuantuan was here and almost lost my shoes."

"Oh, second aunt, you only like Tuantuan and don't like me anymore?" Chu Jinchu hugged her arm and acted coquettishly.

Mrs. Chu touched her head and said, "Of course not, but I still like Tuantuan more."

"Okay, I'll definitely bring him next time. I decided to come here today because of something else. Is Second Uncle home? He seems to be taking a break today!"

"He's resting today, but he's not at home. He's made an appointment to go out and play chess with someone. But he will be back soon. If you're not in a hurry, just wait for him at home." Mrs. Chu said.

Chu Jinchu nodded.

Mrs. Chu asked her aunt to pour tea and took out the rose cakes she had made yesterday and gave them a taste.

"good to eat."

Chu Jinchu praised.

Mrs. Chu said, "I have another box in the refrigerator. You can give it to your second brother. He hasn't been home for many days, and your second uncle won't let me go to see him. He likes to eat this the most."

"Okay, I'll give it to him. Don't worry, my second brother will take good care of himself." Chu Jinchu comforted her.

Mrs. Chu nodded. Although she knew that her son would take good care of himself, she still felt sad.

"By the way, what does Miss Shen like to eat? I will make her some of her favorite food next time. Otherwise, she will think that I am partial and only care about my son but not her. What if she gets angry with me and shows a disapproving attitude to Jingyu?" Mrs. Chu said worriedly again.

Chu Jinchu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and persuaded her with a smile: "Second aunt, Manman is not the kind of unreasonable girl. She won't be angry with you for such a small matter and take it out on my second brother."

"I know Miss Shen is a cool person. But no matter how cool she is, she is still a girl, and she definitely hopes that others will like her. I will not hit a smiling person, and cooking her some of her favorite food is also the intention of me as a future mother-in-law."

"Okay, then remember that she doesn't particularly like sweets. Of course, she likes small desserts, as long as they are not too sweet."

"Okay, I remember. Next time I'll make more dishes and use less sugar." Mrs. Chu made a cute OK gesture.

Soon, she saw the box that Chu Jinchu had placed on the coffee table and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"Pixiu, I came to see my second uncle today just for this."

Chu Jinchu immediately opened it and showed it to her.

Mrs. Chu Er saw it and said in confusion: "I think I saw a string of the same at home."

Then she stretched out her hand and asked Chu Jinchu to give it to her.

She took it out and looked at it for a while, then smiled and said, "But the materials are different. The Pixiu in our house is made of Hetian jade, and this one is also old jade. But it's still not as good as the one at home."

"Second aunt, do you know where the bracelet is?" Chu Jinchu asked hurriedly.

Mrs. Chu Er said, "Your father kept it. He liked it, so the old man gave it to him."

Chu Jinchu was delighted. He thought it was in his second uncle's hands, but he didn't expect it was in her father's hands?

This is much easier to handle.

"I'll call my dad."

"Why, you like it too? Do you want to ask your dad for it? But if you want it, he will definitely give it to you." Mrs. Chu said with a smile.

As he was speaking, Chu Ci Shu came back.

As soon as I saw them coming, I greeted them happily.

But soon, his eyes fell on the Pixiu bracelet.

"Why does this string look so familiar?"

"Isn't this similar to the one on my third brother's hand? Xiaochu brought it back and was about to call her father to ask about the bracelet." Mrs. Chu explained to him.

"Xiaochu, what's going on?" Chu Cishu asked.

Chu Jinchu had no choice but to put down his phone and tell him what happened.

When Chu Cishu heard that this was for the sake of saving the girl from the Mu family, he immediately said, "I'll tell your father about this. Once I get the things, I'll personally deliver them to the Mu family."

"Second Uncle..."

"I do this for a reason," said Chu Cishu.

Chu Jinchu was puzzled and wanted to ask why, but was stopped by Gu Mingchen.

"Mingchen, you came at the right time. Play two more games with me. Old Pan is so mean. He regrets his moves when he can't beat me. He is simply cheating." Chu Cishu complained angrily.

Gu Mingchen nodded and immediately followed him to the study.

Mrs. Chu was very angry when she found out that he went to play chess again as soon as he came back.

However, seeing that he was working with his niece's husband, she stopped complaining about him and took Chu Jinchu to the kitchen to help her aunt pick vegetables.

"Fortunately, you and Achen are here, and you can come over from time to time to keep him company. Otherwise, I don't know how much of a blow Jingyu's situation would have on him. Jingyu is our only child, and your second uncle has high hopes for him. In fact, I don't care, as long as he can be happy and safe, but being born in such a family, he should also have his responsibilities."

Mrs. Chu was picking vegetables while talking to Chu Jinchu.

Chu Jinchu comforted her: "Second aunt, don't be too sad. Second brother is so smart, he knows how to choose the life he wants. It may disappoint Second uncle, but I believe that the relationship between father and son cannot be destroyed by a single disappointment. After some time, when Second uncle's anger subsides, they will be reconciled as before."

"I hope so. Otherwise, I will be stuck in the middle and feel very uncomfortable." Mrs. Mu said aggrievedly.

Chu Jinchu looked at her aggrieved look and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Even if the two men in the family didn't get along, they wouldn't dare to put her in a difficult position!

She was just overthinking and felt that she was caught in a dilemma.

In the study.

While playing chess with Gu Mingchen, Chu Cishu asked him, "Do you know why I have to talk to the Mu family?"

"Second uncle wants to use this incident to ask a favor from the Mu family." Gu Mingchen put down a chess piece and guessed.

Chu Cishu glanced at him, smiled and said, "You know better than them, but it's a pity that you don't take this path."

"There's nothing I can do. There's family property to inherit." Gu Mingchen replied with a smile.

Chu Cishu sighed and said, "It would be great if Chu Jingyu was as responsible as you. He knows the family responsibilities, but he still ignores them. If he wasn't so ignorant, why would I ask for this favor from the Mu family?"

It’s because the eldest brother Mu’s son is promising, and the second brother Mu’s daughter is also promising and may become Jingli’s connection in the future.

Although they never formed cliques or took sides easily, things are unpredictable and the times are changing.

The way their generation has done things may not necessarily be suitable for the next generation.

As an elder, you must have a certain vision and strategy to deal with any changes.

Unfortunately, many young people do not understand the thoughts of these old people. They always think that they are worrying too much and have nothing better to do.

"Second brother is a smart man, and the current situation is only temporary. I believe that second brother will handle his life events and his work problems well." Gu Mingchen comforted him.

Chu Cishu shook his head.

In his opinion, not following the path arranged for him by his family would be a waste of time.

A child who doesn't do his job properly is basically ruined!

"Is your brother still doing scientific research recently?"

While playing chess, Chu Cishu asked again.

Gu Mingchen nodded: "This child likes to do research and has achieved some results."

"He is smart and can do anything. How about asking him if he is interested in a career in politics? There will be another round of exams soon, he can give it a try. If he passes, I will let him come to my side and train him personally." Chu Cishu said.

With his status and position, he said such words, which shows how much he admires Gu Mingyu.

However, Gu Mingchen didn't dare to agree immediately.

After all, he is my younger brother. I can’t even control my son, let alone my younger brother.

"I really can't guarantee you. I have to go back and ask his opinion on this matter. You know, children grow up and have their own ideas. There are many things that parents can't control." Gu Mingchen said.

Chu Cishu nodded, indicating that he agreed with what he said.

Because he thought of his son, the son he had raised with great effort, but was abducted by a woman.

He couldn't help but sigh again.

I didn't pay attention to the sigh and made a wrong move.

By the time he reacted, Gu Mingchen had already eaten three of his pieces.

Chu Cishu was anxious and said quickly: "No, no, I didn't see that step clearly just now, I took a wrong step, let's try again."

Gu Mingchen was speechless.

I thought to myself, no wonder Old Pan refused to play chess with you, your chess skills aren't much better either.

The two played two games of chess and then it was time for dinner.

After dinner, Gu Mingchen and Chu Jinchu said goodbye and left.

I originally wanted to keep the Pixiu bracelet as compensation in exchange for another one.

As a result, Chu Cishu said, "Your father will definitely not like it, so you should take it back and keep it for fun!"

"Will my dad be sad if I ask him to take out his favorite thing?" Chu Jinchu was a little worried.

Chu Cishu said, "Don't worry. Whatever you want, I am willing to give it to you, not to mention my favorite. Leave this matter to me, and I guarantee that it will be resolved within three days."

"Thank you, second uncle." Chu Jinchu thanked him.

"We are a family, so there is no need to be polite. Just bring Tuantuan here more often when you have time. If you are willing, hurry up and have another child." Chu Cishu said seriously.

Chu Jinchu was embarrassed and nodded with a red face.

After getting in the car with Gu Mingchen, I wanted to call Mu Siwen and tell him about the situation here.

Gu Mingchen said, "Don't hit him. I'll tell him."

Chu Jinchu didn't think much about it and asked him to call and tell him himself.

Mu Siwen was also very happy when he knew that the Chu family would be resolved within three days.

But they didn't know that something unexpected happened on Jin Tan's side during these three days.

With a "click", the sound of a teacup falling to the ground was heard in the room.

The housekeeper's heart skipped a beat, and Jin Tan's heart was filled with joy.

Linglong came out and reported to Jin Tan expressionlessly: "Master, Mu Beibei broke another teacup."

"Very good," Jin Tan said with a smile, "Keep the account and show it to the Mu family when they come next time."
