Chapter 622: I feel uncomfortable if I don’t argue
"Okay, let's stop talking. Mu Bai, you should go back to your room and rest. You must be tired after staying with us this late. We all smell like barbecue. Let's go back to our rooms and wash up and go to bed."
"Okay, then I'll go in first."
After saying good night to each other, Jiang Mubai went back to his room, washed up, and went straight to bed, while Jiang Jinglan lay in bed thinking about things after washing up.
"From Jiang Mubai's behavior just now, it seems that he has already trusted me and let down his guard. Should I bring Wen Nuohan home tomorrow to try my luck?"
"No, to be safe, it's better to proceed step by step. Jiang Mubai is so smart. If I just showed my goodwill to her today and bring people back to take care of her tomorrow, she will definitely be suspicious. I'd better not be so impatient and take it slow."
Jiang Jinglan thought so, and she planned to stay in the old house for a few days to chat with Jiang Mubai. This way she could not only understand Jiang Mubai's situation but also dispel his doubts about herself.
Jiang Jinglan thought she had thought it through very carefully, so she fell asleep contentedly.
Jiang Ping and Chen Qingyu had just finished showering and were chatting in bed. "As soon as I came back in the evening, you guys dragged me to the yard for a barbecue and I didn't even have time to ask you a question alone."
"Hmm? What do you want to ask? What is it that you need to ask me alone without them?"
"I'm curious about why you guys suddenly organized a barbecue today. I remember Mu Bai and Jing Lan never got along well with each other, but how come they are sitting together and talking and laughing today?"
"How should I know? Isn't it what you want to see that the two of them get along better? And it's always like this between girls. When things get better, they get better."
"Really? Then you women are really fickle."
"Jinglan may know the importance of family. You only have one brother, A'an, and she only has one uncle, A'an. She and Mubai are the only two children in the family. It's always better to have someone to accompany her than to be alone."
"It would be best if Jinglan could figure it out on her own. Well, you've been sitting down here with me for so long, go to sleep now."
"You go to sleep first. I have a mask on my face and I need to get up and wash it off later. I need to take good care of my skin after being outside for so long."
"Okay, I'll go to bed first then."
Jiang Ping knew that Chen Qingyu was good at taking care of herself, so she didn't say anything after hearing what she said. After all, women can always spend a lot of time and energy on becoming beautiful.
After a while, Jiang Ping's breathing became even and steady, and Chen Qingyu's skin care had just completed the first step.
Men and women are different after all. They don't care about their appearance, but the older women get, the more they care about their skin and appearance.
Jiang Mubai was very happy with them last night, so she slept very soundly. The happiness in reality seemed to be reflected in her dream. Jiang Mubai had a rare dream about her childhood. Jiang Mubai forgot the scenes and content of the dream after she woke up, but she knew that the content of the dream was pleasant and relaxing, otherwise she would not have looked so unsatisfied when she woke up.
The dream was so good that Jiang Mubai was reluctant to get up so she stayed in bed for a while. When she saw that it was almost time, she got up, washed up, and went downstairs to eat.
While Jiang Mubai was still lying in bed, Jiang Jinglan had already gotten up early and went downstairs to have dinner with Chen Qingyu. After she decided to make a change, she would slowly put it into action. Jiang Jinglan's plan was not only to trick Jiang Mubai but also Chen Qingyu and others.
Chen Qingyu was incredulous that Jiang Jinglan woke up so early, "Did you not sleep all night or did you have something to go out for that's why you woke up so early?"
"Mom, do you see any dark circles under my eyes? I look so energetic now, it seems I didn't stay up late last night and went to bed early, okay?"
"Really? Then why did you get up so early? When you wake up, don't you usually lie on the bed and play with your phone until you are tired and then fall asleep? Why are you so abnormal today?"
"What's abnormal about that? I finally did well this time and you're questioning me like that? If you do this, I'll lose confidence in you. How can I become a better person then?"
"Okay, I hope you can keep doing this and not waste time every day. Go to bed early and get up early like you did today. If you try for a few days, you will find that the time after getting up early is very long and plentiful."
"Okay, I'll give it a try then. Mom, are you going out today? Go shopping and have tea with your little sisters?"
"No, I've been there yesterday. I'm not going out today and I plan to stay in the old house the whole time."
"Then don't you get bored sometimes when you stay in the old house all the time?"
"What's so boring? I'm not as old as you and curious about everything. There are many things in the old house that I need to deal with, okay? Do you think I'm as idle as you? If you don't go out today and feel bored, then find something to do at home. There's nothing fun to go out all day. You're not younger than you were before. There's nothing wrong with being calmer and quieter, you know."
"I know, I know. I didn't plan to go out today. I just wanted to see if you need any help at home."
"Don't bother me anymore. Just find some time to kill time."
"Okay, why hasn't Mu Bai come down yet? Doesn't she eat breakfast in the morning? This is not good. She's pregnant!"
"She is not like you who gets up early to eat and go to class every day. But she is indeed a little late today. Usually at this time, she usually finishes her breakfast and goes to the study to wait for the teacher. Is she too tired last night and hasn't woken up yet?"
"She is really determined. She has graduated for such a long time but she still insists on getting up early to attend classes like when she was in school. I really admire her! How about I go upstairs to see if she is in good condition? It would be bad if she accidentally falls. She is pregnant now and it is inconvenient for her to move around. She must be careful."
As soon as Jiang Jinglan finished speaking, Chen Qingyu saw Jiang Mubai appear at the stairs.
"No need, she's already downstairs, you should eat your breakfast quickly, do you have an appetite for so much breakfast so early? Don't worry about wasting it."
Jiang Jinglan finally understood that Chen Qingyu would feel uncomfortable if she didn't say a few words to her every day. Seeing Chen Qingyu like this, Jiang Jinglan felt embarrassed to argue in front of Jiang Mubai.
"Mu Bai! You came downstairs a little late today. Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Mubai didn't expect to meet Jiang Jinglan at the dining table at this time in the morning. She had lived in the Jiang family's old house for so long, but this was the first time she saw Jiang Jinglan at the dining table in the morning.
"I'm not feeling unwell, I just woke up a little late."
"That's good. Mom, don't you still have things to do? You've already finished eating, why aren't you going?"
"I'll go right away. Why are you rushing me? Am I going to be in your way if I sit here?"
"How could that be, Mom? Don't blame me. I'm just worried that you don't have enough time to handle all those things."
"Okay, okay, thank you for your concern. I'll get busy now. Mu Bai, you can take your time to have breakfast with Jing Lan."
"Okay Auntie."
After Chen Qingyu left, Jiang Jinglan brought breakfast and sat next to Jiang Mubai.
"Mu Bai, do you have any activities at the old house today? I don't want to go out today, but it's too boring to stay at home alone. How about we find something to do to kill time?"
