she is from the countryside

Acknowledged Her As An Adopted Granddaughter

The others did not agree with Kong Xiangxiang’s words. Fortunately, her words were not very obvious, and Shi Yan did not seem to have heard it, so they did not say it out loud.

After they sat down, the second lady of the Jiang family, Fang Xiaoyu, poured tea for them and said to Shi Yan, “I received Xiao Yan’s gift. It’s very beautiful. I like it very much.”

Grandma Jiang had already asked someone to pass the gift that Shi Yan had given them for their meeting.

Shi Yan smiled faintly, “It’s good that the Second Lady likes it.”

“Speaking of gifts, Xiao Yan, we haven’t even gone to this embroidery shop. I asked you to take me there, but we’ve been busy playing for the past few days. When are we free to make a trip there?” Jiang Rui asked.

She mainly wanted to ease the delicate atmosphere brought about just now by Kong Xiangxiang’s words.

“Sure.”

Fang Xiaoyu also said, “If it’s possible, I would also like to go and have a look. Such exquisite embroidery is indeed rare in ordinary shops. It’s a pity that I’m busy with work and don’t have much free time, so I can’t go with you guys.”

“Then Second Aunt can go when she’s free. I’ll go with you when Xiao Yan takes me to check out the spots.”

“That’s good.”

A few of them chatted, mostly Jiang Rui and Fang Xiaoyu. Kong Xiangxiang had not spoken since they sat down.

Grandma Jiang had some complaints about this, but she did not point it out in public.

However, after this, Shi Yan got to know most of the Jiang family in Sea City.

The eldest master of the Jiang family, Jiang Qing, was fifty-two years old. He was the previous leader of the Jiang family. Even though he had retired, he still had an imposing aura about him. In terms of temperament, Jiang Cheng was a bit like him

The eldest madam of the Jiang family, Kong Xiangxiang, was a standard noblewoman

The second master of the Jiang family, Jiang Fan, was 45 years old. He wore a pair of glasses and was a standard scientific researcher

The second madam of the Jiang family, Fang Xiaoyu, was 43 years old. She had a beautiful face, but she had a standard scholarly temperament. She was talkative and enthusiastic.

Shi Yan did not talk much. She would only answer when someone asked about her. Under normal circumstances, she was a qualified listener. She sat there quietly and listened to others with a faint smile. It would not make people think that she was rude, nor would it make people think that she had a strong sense of presence.

After the meal, the group ate dessert downstairs in the main hall. Of course, only Jiang Rui ate the dessert. The others each held a cup of tea in their hands.

At this moment, Grandma Jiang suddenly said, “Today’s family banquet can be considered an official meeting with Xiao Yan. While everyone is here, I have something to say.”

Everyone waited quietly for Grandma Jiang to continue.

Grandma Jiang put down the teacup in her hand and held Shi Yan’s hand.

“As you all know, if it weren’t for Xiao Yan, this old woman’s life would have been forfeited three years ago.”

Back then, Grandma Jiang would appear on Shi Yan’s path from the county town to the sparsely populated home. It was only when the fifth master of the Jiang family was in a car accident and was on the verge of death that she heard that there was a godly doctor there and wanted to invite him to save her life.

However, she was old. If she were to say it out loud, her family would definitely not let her go.

She had gone there secretly.

Up to this day, no one in the Jiang family except for the fifth master of the Jiang family knew that she had gone to look for a doctor for the fifth master of the Jiang family. They only thought that she was looking for an old friend.

When Shi Yan met Grandma Jiang, she was bitten on the calf by a poisonous snake that ran out from the bushes by the roadside. If Shi Yan had not arrived in time to help her with the simple treatment and immediately sent her to the county hospital to get a serum, she might have lost her life.

At that time, Grandma Jiang was alone.

Shi Yan originally wanted to help her contact her family, but Grandma Jiang did not let her. She said that she did not want her family to worry.

In fact, Grandma Jiang wanted to stay and continue to look for a godly doctor.

After the snake venom was cleaned, she could go home to rest. Grandma Jiang was unwilling to contact her family, so she requested that Shi Yan bring her home. Perhaps Grandma Jiang made Shi Yan think of her deceased grandmother, or perhaps Shi Yan had lived alone for too long and was a little tired of living alone. Either way, she agreed.

Then, Grandma Jiang stayed at her house for half a month. Coincidentally, it was during summer vacation. Shi Yan had nothing else to do, so she could take care of her.

In the end, Grandma Jiang did not find the so-called godly doctor.

She was picked up by someone.

It was not anyone from the Jiang family who picked her up. It was Grandma Jiang who called her trusted aides to pick her up. It was not until she was brought back to the Jiang family in Sea City that the rest of the Jiang family found out about this matter.

Therefore, Shi Yan didn’t see anyone from the Jiang family before she came to sea city.

“Mother told us about this matter, and we have always kept it in mind,” Fang Xiaoyu said, looking at Shi Yan gratefully. “Xiao Yan, you saved Mom. Our Sea City’s Jiang family owes you a huge favor. It’s just that it’s too much for an outsider to talk about favors all the time, so I won’t talk nonsense. From now on, you can treat this place as your home and stay here as long as you want. If you need anything, just ask. Don’t be shy.”

Shi Yan smiled appropriately, “Thank you, Second Madam.”

“You’re welcome. Also, don’t call me Second Madam. I heard that you’ve been on very good terms with Rui’er recently, so you followed Rui’er and called me Second Aunt.

“Call me aunt Fang-”

Before Fang Xiaoyu could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Grandma Jiang.

Seeing that the others were looking at her in confusion, Grandma Jiang said calmly, “Follow Rui’er and call your Second Aunt. How should Xiao Yan address Rui’er’s parents? Don’t use these rules to restrict Xiao Yan. Just let Xiao Yan call Uncle, Aunt, or Uncle as she pleases.”

Fang Xiaoyu’s face was full of confusion.

Didn’t Grandma Jiang always say that she treated Shi Yan as her own granddaughter? Wasn’t she afraid that Shi Yan would feel uncomfortable if she did not feel cordial when she came to their house? Wouldn’t calling her second aunt be more cordial? Calling uncle or auntie would be too much of an outsider.

For a moment, she did not understand what Grandma Jiang meant.

The others were confused, but Shi Yan, the person involved, was the calmest.

She obediently called out, “Aunt Fang.”

Aunt Fang it was. It was better than the second madam.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiaoyu smiled and said, “That’s right. CallIng me second madam is for outsiders.”

Grandma Jiang said, “Xiao Yan is my savior and my favorite junior. When she is studying in Haicheng, she will stay in the old house during her holidays or weekends. When I am not at home, I will help take care of her.”

There were very few people who did not stay at university. Even Jiang Rui had to stay at university. That was why Grandma Jiang said that she would stay here during her holidays and weekends.

“You will stay here for four years of University?” Kong Xiangxiang suddenly asked in an agitated tone.

Everyone was looking at her with some disapproval in their eyes, especially Grandma Jiang. Her displeasure was expressed on her face.

Kong Xiangxiang quickly smiled and said, “What I mean is, since you like Xiao Yan so much, Mom, how can it be enough for her to stay at home for four years? If she wants to stay in Haicheng after graduation, she can also continue to stay at home.

“Naturally, this way, there might be some jealous people gossiping behind her back. Why don’t you set up a banquet to officially acknowledge Xiaoyan as your granddaughter? That way, no matter how long she stays at home, she will have a legitimate name and no one would dare to gossip.”

Upon hearing her suggestion, Fang Xiaoyu said excitedly, “It just so happens that I don’t have a daughter. I can let Xiao Yan have my name. That way, I’ll also have a daughter!”

“That’s not appropriate!”

“No way!”

However, it was the two of them who spoke at the same time.
