Regarding what Jiang Shuqin said, Ou ZhenTing, Mrs. Ou, and Mrs. Jiang naturally had no objections.
"Go ahead," Mrs. Ou said, "Have a good talk with Xiao Cong, after all, this matter involves both of you."
"Thank you, Aunt," Jiang Shuqin nodded towards Mrs. Ou and said.
Jiang Shuqin’s tone wasn’t very good earlier, so she was grateful for Mrs. Ou’s understanding.
"Ou Cong, let’s go, co into the room with ," Jiang Shuqin glanced at Ou Cong and said calmly.
At this point, Jiang Shuqin cald down completely.
She had originally planned to lay her cards on the table on this trip back to Beijing; now, she was just advancing the titable. It was no big deal.
If she, Jiang Shuqin, and Ou Cong shared the sa feelings, then they would get married.
If Ou Cong... doesn’t have these feelings for her!
Then, they would separate sooner rather than later!
Thinking of this, Jiang Shuqin bit her lip, turned around, and strode into the room first.
Seeing Jiang Shuqin like this, for so reason, a strange feeling surged in Ou Cong’s heart.
After hesitating, Ou Cong gently put Huo Shiwu down and said, "Shiwu, wait outside for Uncle. I’ll be back soon."
After saying that, Ou Cong followed Jiang Shuqin into the room.
After Ou Cong and Jiang Shuqin entered the room, Huo Shiwu frowned, looked at his second uncle and Aunt Jiang leaving, and then at his grandparents, who looked angry, and Granny Jiang, who also seed angry but worried.
Then, Huo Shiwu, with his short little legs, walked toward Mrs. Jiang.
"Granny Jiang," Huo Shiwu reached out and gently patted Mrs. Jiang, "Tell Granny not to be angry. In the future, I’ll make Second Uncle listen to Aunt Jiang and give all the money to Aunt Jiang."
Huo Shiwu said this as if he was speaking about Ou Cong and Jiang Shuqin in the roles of children and a nanny.
As a "child," of course, Ou Cong should listen to the nanny.
However, hiring a "nanny" costs money, so his second uncle should give money to Aunt Jiang.
Huo Shiwu’s thoughts were just that simple.
But the adults understood it as him really liking Jiang Shuqin and wanting her as his aunt.
Moreover, the adults interpreted Huo Shiwu’s "give money" comnt as aning he wanted to persuade his second uncle to be obedient to his wife in the future.
The generational gap between adults and children is more significant than it seems.
Mrs. Jiang, initially worried and a bit angry, sighed after hearing Huo Shiwu’s serious yet innocent voice.
"Shiwu is so understanding." Mrs. Jiang felt sowhat comforted.
Children don’t lie, and since Shiwu accepted her daughter, it indicated that Ou Cong should be fond of her daughter too!
At this point, seeing that Mrs. Jiang’s mood had improved, Mrs. Ou quickly said, "Rest assured, Mrs. Jiang. I’ve already said that in my heart, I only recognize Shuqin as my daughter-in-law!"
"If my second son sses things up..." Mrs. Ou said firmly, "I’ll have his father and his elder brother give him a good beating and kick him out of the house!"
"In the Ou Family, we don’t have such clueless sons!" Mrs. Ou said, increasingly exasperated.
Huo Shiwu’s "statent" and Mrs. Ou’s stance provided a strong sense of reassurance for Mrs. Jiang.
Among the mbers of the Ou Family, young and old, they all liked her daughter and accepted her.
It seed that her daughter’s earnest feelings would not be overlooked.
While the atmosphere in the living room was becoming more relaxed, the tension between Jiang Shuqin and Ou Cong in the other room was palpable.
