Old Madam Lu agreed.
After persisting for so long, it was time to let it go.
Regardless of how much she disliked Jiang Yining, the whole family acknowledged her.
What was the use of opposing her alone?
It would only lead to being abandoned by everyone.
Old Master Lu saw that his wife had finally softened her stance and smiled as he said, “That’s the way.”
The two of them shook hands and made peace.
The tension that had lingered in the house finally dissipated.
Shen Man stood in the corner and observed that her father-in-law and mother-in-law had reconciled. The anxiety that had been hanging in her throat also settled back into her stomach.
It was past seven.
Everyone in the Lu family gathered as per the tradition.
According to the tradition, every child and grandchild would present gifts and blessings to the two elders according to their seniority.
When it was Jiang Yining and Lu Zhi’s turn.
Jiang Yining smiled and said, “Grandpa, we didn’t bring any gifts. We’ll kowtow to you and Grandma as a form of blessing.”
“You don’t have to kowtow. Try to give birth to a chubby baby for us next year. Grandpa will treat it as a gift from you,” Old Master Lu said happily.
Jiang Yining’s face turned red.
Old Madam Lu paused, took off one of the bangles on her hand, and said, “Here, it’s for you.”
Jiang Yining pointed at herself in surprise. “For me?”
“If it wasn’t you, who else could it be? Can All Zhi wear this bracelet?”
Old Madam Lu’s tone wasn’t very friendly, but this was already the most significant gesture of kindness she had shown to Jiang Yining.
Jiang Yining looked at Lu Zhi.
Lu Zhi nodded slightly, indicating for her to be obedient.
Jiang Yining stepped forward.
Old Madam Lu personally adorned the jade bracelet on Jiang Yining’s wrist. She said awkwardly, “This is our family heirloom. It can only be passed on to the legitimate daughter-in-law and the eldest granddaughter-in-law. It was supposed to be given to you on your wedding day… I’ll give it to you now.”
This jade bracelet had been passed down for several generations. When it came to Old Madam Lu, it should be given to Shen Man
However, she felt that Shen Man’s affair had disgraced the ancestors of the Lu family.
Therefore, she had taken it back from Shen Man a long time ago.
After that, it was Jiang Yining’s turn.
She didn’t give it to her.
It was only today that she truly gave it to Jiang Yining.
This was essentially Old Madam officially acknowledging Jiang Yining’s identity as the Young Mistress of the Lu family!
Jiang Yining touched the jade bracelet and smiled as she said, “Thank you, Grandma. I’ll definitely take good care of it and aim to pass it on to the next generation.”
“Not aim to, but definitely.”
Old Madam Lu corrected with dissatisfaction.
Jiang Yining nodded hurriedly. “Yes, you’re right.”
Old Madam Lu was finally satisfied.
Jiang Yining returned to Lu Zhi’s side and blinked at him as she said, “Didn’t expect this, huh? I persuaded Old Madam to come back and got such a treasure.”
It looked very valuable.
However, she couldn’t keep it for long and would have to return it to Lu Zhi so that he could keep it for his next wife.
But wearing it for a while was still something.
Jiang Yining was very content.
Lu Zhi curled his lips and gently patted her head. “Well done. You deserve a reward.”
“What reward?”
“A kiss.”
Jiang Yining was speechless and choked for two seconds, then said, “Then you should save it.”
She didn’t want such a reward.
Lu Zhi smiled and said, “What reward do you want?”
Jiang Yining fell silent for a moment and said, “Lu Zhi, can you help me find someone to synthesize an element?”
Even though the news had been released, there was no real Curium. Tao family and the other two behind it might not fall for it.
Therefore, no matter what the price was.
She planned to make a real one.
“What element?”
Lu Zhi asked.
“Curium.”
Jiang Yining spoke clearly.
Lu Zhi frowned slightly.
He knew about this element. Not long ago, Elder Tao had mentioned a collaboration with him, and it involved curium.
But he didn’t agree.
Yining definitely didn’t mention such scarce resources by chance.
“What do you want this for?”
“It’s useful.” Jiang Yining said unhurriedly, “Help me find people with expertise in this field. I’ll take care of the rest.”
“No problem.” Lu Zhi said in a calm tone, “As long as you want it, I can give it to you.”
As her words fell, a commotion came from the door.
The crowd in the living room all looked over.
“I want to see Grandma! Don’t stop me! I have something important to say!”
This familiar voice belonged to none other than Chen Kexin.
The housekeeper had long received orders from Old Master not to allow Chen Kexin and Chen Qinglian to step into the Lu family. Naturally, he had to stop her.
However, Chen Kexin dodged left and right, and for a moment, they failed to catch her.
“Grandma! I’m Kexin! I have something very important to tell you! It concerned the safety of the entire Lu family! You must listen to me!”
Chen Kexin kept shouting.
Old Madam Lu couldn’t sit still anymore and stood up.
She walked to the living room door.
Chen Kexin sneaked into the Lu family through the dog hole. She was dirty and smelly.
Old Madam Lu, half shocked and half distressed, asked, “Kexin, why are you back? Didn’t I arrange for you to go to the United States?”
“Grandma, you’re finally out! 1 have something very important to tell you, that’s why I rushed back from afar!” Chen Kexin pushed the housekeeper away and rushed to Old Madam, panting. “Jiang Yining deliberately infiltrated our Lu family! She had a good friend called Lin Yan! Do you still remember this woman? Brother Beicheng’s girlfriend is Lin Yan!”
“That woman is responsible for Brother Beicheng’s disappearance! Jiang Yining got close to Ah Zhi and everyone in the Lu family to avenge her! You can’t keep her here! Otherwise, our entire Lu family will be in danger!”
Chen Kexin’s words shocked everyone present!
Who didn’t know about Lin Yan?
They never dared to mention this woman at all because she had harmed Beicheng!
Jiang Yining turned out to be her good friend?
“Kexin, don’t talk nonsense! Yining and Lin Yan don’t even know each other!” Old Master Lu didn’t believe her at all!
Convinced that it was Chen Kexin who, for some mischief, was driving Yining away.
Only then would she intentionally make such false accusations!
“Someone come! Chase Kexin out!”
