Chapter 55 Supporting Grandma
Jiang Chuyue glanced at the strawberries in her hand, then looked at Xiao Yihao who was puzzled, and sighed in her heart: Damn it.
How could she forget that there were no such things as strawberries in ancient times? She found the strawberry seeds in an extra room in the space two days ago and planted them quickly. In just a few days, they were ripe.
"This is strawberry, have you never seen it before?" Jiang Chuyue asked back with a calm expression.
Xiao Yihao frowned for a moment and then quickly relaxed his brows, "I've never seen it." He was honest and said, if he hadn't seen it, he hadn't seen it.
"Here, try it, it tastes very good." Jiang Chuyue generously shared some with Xiao Yihao, "Do you think the opening of the ancestral hall this time has a lot to do with Shen Rong?"
"Of course it has something to do with him. He is now the head of the Shen family. When he speaks, the elders in the ancestral hall will naturally respond." Xiao Yihao tasted a few strawberries and unexpectedly found that they tasted really good. He quickly finished the few that Jiang Chuyue gave him.
He even wanted to ask Jiang Chuyue for some more, but seeing that Jiang Chuyue had no more, Xiao Yihao quickly gave up the idea.
"Why don't we take the initiative to meet the village chief?" Although Jiang Chuyue had met Shen Rong once, she knew very little about him.
"I advise you to be honest for now. The Shen family has been in a mess because of you. I'm afraid they want to eat you when they see you now." Xiao Yihao glanced at Jiang Chuyue coldly.
Although his words were a little unpleasant to the ear, they were sincere and honest.
Jiang Chuyue also thought it made sense and gave up this somewhat outrageous idea.
Suddenly, I remembered the excitement that Aunt Wang wanted to see today. "You don't seem to be curious about what's going on in the ancestral hall?"
"No matter how lively it is, can it compare to the excitement of you making a scene in the ancestral hall today?" Xiao Yihao rolled his eyes at Jiang Chuyue. He usually did not show his emotions on his face, but perhaps it was because the Xiao family was now so lively and the family lived a happy and contented life, so Xiao Yihao also softened a little.
"Who said that? Maybe this noise is even bigger than the one we make." Jiang Chuyue said calmly.
He did not take Jiang Chuyue's words to heart, thinking that she was just talking casually. However, he never imagined that the commotion in the ancestral hall was indeed even bigger than the one caused by Jiang Chuyue: the ancestral hall was on fire!
Because there are not many people living near the ancestral hall, except for a few elders and the Shen family who take care of them, there is no one else in the hall.
Therefore, when the fire broke out in the ancestral hall, no one discovered it in time. It was not until the fire got bigger that several clan elders and Shen family members living in the ancestral hall realized that something was wrong.
They fled in a hurry and found that the fire in the ancestral hall was getting more and more intense. They hurriedly looked for help from nearby families. However, because of Jiang Chuyue's disturbance today, the villagers became dissatisfied with the Shen family and the ancestral hall.
Now that they see the ancestral hall is about to be destroyed, they want to celebrate with drums and gongs, so how could they offer to help?
However, they did not dare to offend the Shen family too much, so they sent a few fake fighters to help. Others used the excuse that they were poor and did not have enough water and barrels to help put out the fire.
As a result, after a tug-of-war between the Shen family and other villagers, by the time other members of the Shen family arrived, the fire in the ancestral hall could no longer be extinguished.
In the end, they could only watch with hatred as the ancestral hall was devoured by flames and eventually turned into ruins.
Naturally, the first person the Shen family suspected was Jiang Chuyue. She was already dissatisfied with the ancestral hall and had legitimate motives, but after Jiang Chuyue left the ancestral hall, she was followed by other villagers the whole time, and she never left after returning to the old house.
Even so, Shen Rong still planned to meet Jiang Chuyue.
When the village chief appeared in front of the door, Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao both went to greet him.
"Why are you here today, Village Chief?" Jiang Chuyue's words were originally correct, but after a series of events today, Shen Rong felt that Jiang Chuyue was being sarcastic.
"Chuyue, I still remember the scene when you just married Haoer. But at that time you were a new bride, wearing a veil, and had never seen us." Shen Rong did not ask about the ancestral hall, but instead brought up the marriage of Jiang Chuyue and Xiao Yihao.
"I didn't expect that so much time has passed in the blink of an eye. Are you used to living in the Xiao family now?"
Jiang Chuyue's fake smile was very obvious, but Shen Rong seemed not to notice and continued talking.
"I have also heard about your and your uncle's affairs. Your uncle did something really inappropriate. You were protecting your aunt, so you attacked him on impulse. It wasn't a big deal, and I understand."
Seeing that Shen Rong was about to talk about business, Jiang Chuyue perked up a little, but unexpectedly, Shen Rong turned around and continued to talk about the Xiao family.
"Although your uncle was wrong, you are the younger generation after all, so it is wrong for you to hit him. However, since this is your first offense, I will let it go. But your grandmother is getting older, and this year is difficult. You should know something about the situation at your aunt's home. I think your family is doing pretty well, so why don't I make a decision for you and ask your grandmother to live in your home?"
I didn't expect that Shen Rong would come up with such an idea after all his twists and turns.
Jiang Chuyue did not take it lightly and continued cautiously, "We originally wanted to bring grandma back, but she probably couldn't get used to it, so she went back to the second room. If grandma is still willing to come back, my husband and I will naturally do our best to support her."
Shen Rong smiled, looking very satisfied with Jiang Chuyue, "I told you that Chuyue is a very easy-going girl. Look, you agreed immediately when I mentioned it."
Jiang Chuyue refused such flattery, "Supporting grandma is what we, the younger generation, should do."
"In that case, why don't you let your grandmother move in today?" Shen Rong struck while the iron was hot.
"Of course it's good." Jiang Chuyue said, and looked at Xiao Yihao calmly. Xiao Yihao didn't react at all. Jiang Chuyue was a little annoyed, but now she could only go along with what Shen Rong said.
Unexpectedly, after seeing Jiang Chuyue agreed, Shen Rong quickly stood up and said, "Then I will tell your grandmother the good news and ask her to move in as soon as possible."
Seeing Shen Rong leave so readily, Jiang Chuyue touched his chin and fell into deep thought.
"Don't you think Shen Rong is a little weird?"
"What's so strange about that?" Xiao Yihao had a gloomy face, showing no emotion.
"He didn't ask about the ancestral hall, but was concerned about the Xiao family's affairs?" Jiang Chuyue was not sure what Shen Rong was thinking.
She didn't even see any dissatisfaction or resentment towards her on Shen Rong's face.
