Chapter 275: 192 Confrontation with family, she is Jiangjiang's birth mother (2 more updates) The next morning, as Tang Wan got out of bed and descended the stairs, she learned that it was the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month.

Today, the Jiang family celebrated the Little New Year with traditions like cleaning the house and making offerings to the kitchen god, while the Tang family would observe it the next day, though they had decided to adopt local customs and celebrate it early this year.

This year was particularly different; apart from the Tang Family being there, Jiang Yanting informed his family during breakfast that Shen Zhixian would be coming over for dinner.

This news delighted the Jiang family members.

Originally, they felt that if Jiang Yanting could bring their child to stay over at her place, their relationship was already different, but now that he was inviting her to chfor dinner on such a special day, their joy was naturally heightened. Fan Mingyu was so happy that he changed clothes and prepared to go shopping personally. "Are you sure she's coming tonight?" The old lady still found it hard to believe.

Before, she thought her grandson was too introverted, not knowing how to take initiative, but this progression was somewhat too rapid.

"Yeah, we even talked about it on video last night," Jiangjiang was particularly excited.

"It's going to be quite lively here tonight," Old Tang chuckled.

"Yanting, what does the child like to eat? I'll prepare it in advance," Fan Mingyu said, smiling.

Jiang Yanting did mention a few things.

"After dinner, I'll go buy groceries." "Then I'll go out with you later," Tang Wan said.

"Now that your relationship has reached this point, the Xie family's annual meeting should also have more of us attending; this child, she's kind of pitiful, facing what Yanting is..." The old lady cut herself off as Jiang Yanting turned his head to look at her.

What about him? What did that tone imply? "I just feel that however you look at it, our family is taking advantage, so we ought to attend in greater numbers to show her that our family cares about her." "I understand," Jiang Zhenhuan spoke as usual, his tone cold and detached, "I discussed this matter with Mingyu yesterday. Given her relationship with Yanting, it's right for us to go there ourselves." In fact, Shen Zhixian's life story didn't really make her a bastard, as the deceased elder Mr. Xie, apart from her mother, hadn't married anyone else; it was only a matter of missing formal recognition.

But in many people's eyes, a child recognized midway through life, used to running wild outside, can hardly be considered majestic enough for high society; giving the Xie family face by making a token appearance sufficed, and nobody really took the matter seriously.

The people from the past can essentially be divided into two groups: Those like Qi Zeyan, who had business dealings with the Xie family, worried about the division of assets and changes in Xie corporate shares affecting their businesses, specifically went to see what exactly would happen. Even if there were people attending because of Shen Zhixian, they were there for the and gossip, like the possibly attending Duan Lin Bai.

So, the presence of the Jiang family having significant weight also indirectly elevated Shen Zhixian's value; no matter how her relationship with Jiang Yanting developed, the Jiang family's high regard meant that anyone wishing to slight her would have to think twice.

"Then at that time, the two of you, along with Yanting..." "Grandma, I want to go too," Jiang Jinsang suddenly spoke up.

"Why would you go?" the old lady frowned.

Jiang Jinsang didn't usually like attending such events; his sudden interest surprised everyone. Had having a girlfriend changed him to be more outgoing? "You once said that I should go out more, didn't you?" "Then I'm going too!" Jiangjiang quietly raised his little hand.

"What's this, a group tour?" the old lady laughed lightly, "Alright, just take Wanwan too, and all of you can go, can't you?"

"Actually, this child is also quite pitiable; back then, that person from the Xie family, her husband died early, and she alone supported such a large household. It wasn't easy raising her two sons into adults. Always so competitive, even when looking for a daughter-in-law, she demanded the best, always thinking the girl wasn't worthy of her family. It really was a very ugly affair..." The old lady, remembering the past, was filled with many emotions.

"Being strong-willed all her life, if it hadn't been for her son's passing, which hit her hard, she would not have put aside her pride to seek out this child. Why the suffering?" "If I were to marry her, would you object?" Jiang Yanting asked.

"Why would I object? If you are together, from then on, you'll be one family living together. The mostm important thing is whether you and Ε Jiangjiang like it. As long as her values are right and her personality is good, someone who can live well with you," the old lady smiled." "Her relationship with the Xie family, that's not her fault either; she's a victim too."

"But the premise is she has to be willing. Living with you, I can barely stand it myself; if Jiangjiang were not still young do you think your dad and I would want to live with you? If she's willing to take you in, doesn't find you boring, and can love Jiangjiang, then it's truly a blessing from your grandfather in heaven."
