Chapter 1557 Love is the Only Answer
Chapter 1557 Love is the Only Answer
After dinner, she still had to go to the old house with Li Jingchen to visit the old man.
Moreover, the children were playing in the garden, and Jiang Tong had already calmed down after thinking about it.
"Since you've decided to give birth, then take good care of yourself during pregnancy and give birth to a healthy baby."
A smile appeared on Dong Yalan's face.
"Tongtong, Mom wants to thank you!"
She stroked her belly and said, "Son, did you hear that? You must thank your sister. When you are born, you must be good to her."
Li Jingchen glanced at Jiang Tong sideways, then silently pursed his lips.
After dinner, Liu Zhen'er and Dong Yunze stayed at the Dongshan Villa.
Jiang Tong and Li Jingchen left with the three children.
Jiang Mingyang and Li Feifan finished eating and fell asleep in the back seat of the car.
Jiang Tong held Xiao Er in her arms, teasing his little face. The child grabbed her finger, his clear eyes filled with curiosity and innocence.
That smile warmed Jiang Tong's heart...
"fine?"
"..."
Jiang Tong raised her head and glanced in Li Jingchen's direction.
Li Jingchen, driving, asked again, "Are you in a good mood?"
Jiang Tong smiled and said, "It's nothing."
The night was falling, and her smile was unfathomable to Li Jingchen.
Finally, with a deep look in his eyes, he said, "After seeing Grandpa, let's have a good talk when we get home."
"Okay." Jiang Tong didn't say anything more, and looked out the window. The moon outside was very round on the fifteenth of August.
Jiang Tong's thoughts drifted back to her childhood, to a time when the moon was just as round.
Dong Yalan hugged her and Ning Jianan's shoulders and said that having the two of them in this life was enough.
When they arrived at the old house, they were a step too late. Li Wenhong had just left to reunite with Li Dongzan and Ning Jian'an.
Li Dongzan was supposed to come to the old house to have dinner with his grandfather, but Ning Jian'an was pregnant and tired and didn't want to come, so Li Dongzan didn't come.
Meanwhile, Li Qinghe was in Suzhou spending the Mid-Autumn Festival with Lu Chunlian, gathering with her mother's family.
However, Li Qinghe sent Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to Jiang Tong and Grandpa Li, and also sent one to Song Qingyi.
Thus, only Li Jingchen and Jiang Tong remained in the old house to accompany Old Master Li for a meal of dumplings.
Grandpa likes to eat bok choy sprouts. Since there were vegetables at home, Li Jingchen picked some and was in charge of wrapping them, with Jiang Tong helping him.
After Jiang Mingyang and Li Feifan woke up, they played around here for a while. Even though they had eaten at the Dongshan Villa, they were still able to eat a small half bowl of dumplings.
Li Zhuoer also ate some of the crushed dumpling skin.
After this reunion, it was quite late when everyone returned to Fujiang Rose. The children were exhausted and yawning constantly. Li Jingchen carried them into the house one by one and coaxed them to sleep.
"Are you sleepy?"
After Li Jingchen returned to his bedroom, he asked Jiang Tong.
Jiang Tong, having just changed her clothes, sat on the edge of the bed and said, "It's alright, want some?"
Li Jingchen raised an eyebrow, asking with interest, "What? Wine?"
Jiang Tong nodded; she had just suddenly... wanted to have a drink.
Li Jingchen thought for a moment, "Then let's have some baijiu."
Because she is still taking traditional Chinese medicine, she cannot drink alcohol. She can drink a little bit of soy sauce-flavored liquor, but it will easily make her drunk.
"it is good."
It was late at night when Jiang Tong and Li Jingchen sat in the restaurant, having a drink together.
After pouring a little less than half a glass of wine into Jiang Tong's glass, Li Jingchen filled his own glass to the brim.
"I'll drink with you today. You take a sip, and I'll have a cup with you. How about that?"
Jiang Tong smiled helplessly, "Then I can only have two sips at most, but you'll be drunk after three cups."
Li Jingchen's thin lips curled slightly, "Underestimating your husband?"
Jiang Tong sighed, "I'm telling the truth."
She took a small sip of her drink.
Alcohol is a wonderful thing. They say that getting drunk can solve a thousand worries. Although tomorrow's life may still be full of troubles, at least we can enjoy the wine while we can.
Li Jingchen clinked glasses with her, "Who drinks alone?"
Jiang Tong said, "Do we, an old married couple, really need to be so particular about these things?"
Li Jingchen said, "Who's talking about an old married couple like you? We're still young."
Jiang Tong scoffed and clinked glasses with Li Jingchen again.
"Actually, my mom can have the baby if she wants to. I can tell that my parents haven't thought that far ahead. They just feel that she's pregnant and want to have the baby. My mom likes children, and so does my dad."
"You understand them, but what about yourself? If you're feeling down, just tell me."
"I'm not upset, although I did feel very sad at first."
"I'm also a little envious,"
Jiang Tong spoke the truth, as if revealing a secret she had kept hidden deep in her heart.
“I envy Wenya and my unborn brother. They were able to grow up being cared for by their parents, which is something I didn’t have. That’s why I’m envious.”
As she spoke, Jiang Tong took another sip of wine.
"But I can understand my mom,"
"Because I'm a mother now, and a mother of three, I can understand this feeling even more."
"I don't want to speculate too much. I just think that they kept the child because they loved him very much."
As for how the Jiang Group's assets will be distributed in the future, that's too far in the future. Jiang Tong believes that Dong Yalan really hasn't thought that far ahead.
Because in her eyes was the joy of becoming a mother again.
She is also cherished by the man who loves her, and lives a happy and sweet life.
“She’s my mom, she’s also my brother’s mom, Wenya’s mom, and my unborn brother too. I won’t dislike him either. I’ll treat him the same way I treat Wenya.”
Jiang Tong laughed as she spoke.
"I never imagined that I would have a younger brother when I'm thirty."
This is probably the only one of its kind in the whole country!
No, it might be the only one of its kind in the world.
"All I can do is to be the best version of myself, because I can't control what others do. As long as I have a clear conscience, that's enough."
Li Jingchen kept staring at Jiang Tong, a flickering light appearing deep in his eyes.
As a good listener, he listened to her innermost thoughts with utmost patience.
Jiang Tong drank half a glass of wine, and then drank another half glass.
Li Jingchen did not stop her.
He knew that she had many, many secrets in her heart.
Saying it out loud makes me feel a little better...
Now that I feel more comfortable, I won't need sleeping pills anymore, and I won't startle him like last time...
"Say whatever you want to say, I don't mind."
"Do you want to listen?" Jiang Tong was already drunk.
Li Jingchen smiled. "I'm your husband. If I don't listen to you, who will?"
Jiang Tong smiled, thinking about many things, and spoke incoherently...
She said that when she was a child, she was most afraid of watching a TV series called "Golden Wedding" because she was particularly afraid of the male and female leads arguing in the series.
That sound was a shadow that haunted her since childhood, and she vowed never to let her children grow up in such an environment.
She said that when she was having dinner at the Dongshan Villa today, she thought about how many children were there and she really didn't want them to be frightened. In the eyes of innocent children, a family reunion and Dong Yalan's pregnancy are happy things.
Let's make it a happy thing.
