Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 186 Moving into a new home
"Rou Rou, where are we going now? How about we take the money and go abroad? I'm afraid the South East University will cause us trouble!" Jiang Xue was still afraid when she mentioned the South East University.

Jiang Rourou said smugly, "Mom, I have a place to stay now, it's just... anyway, you can just come with me. As for my dad, I guarantee he won't dare to cause us any more trouble!"

Jiang Xue grabbed her daughter's hand, "Rou Rou, what do you mean by this?"

"I'll tell you later, Mom. We've arrived. Let's move our things first!"

The mother and daughter became incredibly energetic when it came to moving things, as this could be their retirement savings for the rest of their lives.

"You all better be careful. If you get hurt, you can forget about getting paid!" Jiang Rourou personally supervised the workers as they carried six or seven boxes into the house. Just thinking about it made her excited.

With money, she'll be the boss, able to do whatever she wants without anyone daring to do anything to her.

"Rou Rou, is this the apartment you just rented? It's really big, you can't possibly live there all by yourself, can you?" Jiang Xue walked around the living room twice and gave her opinion.

"This isn't something I rented. From now on, I'll be the lady of this house!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xue was taken aback. "What? Your house? Where did you get the money?"

"I'll tell you about this later. I need to make an appointment at the bank right away and deposit the money, lest something unexpected happens!"

Jiang Xue slapped her forehead. "You're right! Save it now!"

The mother and daughter went to the bank that day to deposit more than 20 million yuan. As a big customer, the bank staff were naturally very respectful and bowed. Jiang Rourou and Jiang Xue experienced the feeling of being God, and this sense of superiority greatly satisfied their vanity.

As for those luxury items, Jiang Rourou kept them safe. The mother and daughter were busy until dark, tired but happy.

"Mom, I have something very important to tell you now. After you hear it, you must stay calm!"

Seeing her daughter's serious expression, Jiang Xue nodded.

"Your daughter is about to marry into a wealthy family, does the Qian family know? The young master of the Qian family is my fiancé, and..." Jiang Rourou touched her lower abdomen, unable to hide her joy, "I am already pregnant with his child, and his whole family is so happy. You are going to be a grandmother, so you can enjoy a life of leisure with me from now on!"

Overwhelmed by the amount of information, Jiang Xue didn't process it all at once. She excitedly grabbed her daughter's hand, "Is it the Qian family, which is almost on par with the Xiao family?"

Jiang Rourou said proudly, "Yes, it's the Qian family. From now on, I will be the future mistress of the Qian family. Even the Xiao family will have to treat me with respect. Mom, your daughter has turned the tables!"

Jiang Xue looked down at Jiang Rourou's still-flat belly and excitedly reached out to stroke it a few times. "Rourou, my good daughter, you are really amazing. That is the young master of the Qian family. Nan Wu will be nothing in front of you in the future. I have worked so hard for so many years, but I never thought that I would have to rely on you in the end. You have made me so proud!"

At that moment, Qian Xingjie returned.

Looking at the messy house, he frowned and asked, "Jiang Rourou, what are you doing?"

"Xingjie, you're back!" Jiang Rourou greeted him with a bright smile. "I was just... cleaning!"

The treasure she brought from the Nan family belongs to Jiang Rourou, and Qian Xingjie cannot know about it for the time being.

"Rou Rou, this must be Young Master Qian, right? He's quite the handsome young man!" Jiang Xue looked at her future son-in-law and found him increasingly pleasing to the eye, much more so than the previous Xiao Jiayang.

Upon seeing the stranger, Qian Xingjie's eyes narrowed warily. "Who are you?"

"Xingjie, let me introduce you. This is my mom. Starting today, she'll be moving in here so she can take care of me. You won't refuse, right?"

Qian Xingjie didn't like Jiang Rourou holding his arm like that, so he pulled it away in front of everyone, making Jiang Rourou lose face. "Do whatever you want!"

After saying that, he went into the bedroom, showing no enthusiasm whatsoever for Jiang Xue's arrival.

Jiang Xue leaned closer to her daughter, "Rou Rou, why does it seem like my son-in-law isn't very happy?"

Jiang Rourou stroked her lower abdomen, not caring at all, "Mom, Xingjie is like this to everyone, he doesn't have bad intentions, don't worry too much!"

"Is that so? Then I feel relieved!"

Jiang Rourou looked towards the bedroom, her eyes filled with a determined look. "Mom, you rest here for a while. There's food in the fridge. You can cook if you get hungry. I'll go check it out!"

"...Keep the photos for now, don't use them for the time being. I'll find the right opportunity to beat her so badly she can't recover..."

"Xingjie, I'm coming in!" Qian Xingjie was on the phone when he saw Jiang Rourou push the door open and quickly hung up. "Jiang Rourou, don't you know how to knock before coming in?"

Jiang Rourou looked aggrieved. "I knocked, but you were on the phone and probably didn't hear me!"

"And what's wrong with your mother? Did you get my permission to let her come and stay? Don't forget, I'm the owner of this house. Everything you do needs my permission!"

Jiang Rourou also wanted to get angry. She was about to marry into the Qian family, but she didn't even have the right to let her mother live with her. Was she really such a failure as the future mistress of the Qian family?
But considering that she will be a member of the Qian family in the future, enjoying great prestige, Qian Xingjie's attitude towards her cannot be ignored. If she can endure it for a while, things will be peaceful. As long as Qian Xingjie is willing to marry her, what is this little grievance?
"I understand, Xingjie. I promise this is the last time. Next time, I will definitely ask for your permission. But my mother is already here. It wouldn't be appropriate to let her leave now, and it would give others something to talk about. Don't you think so?"

Qian Xingjie pinched her chin and sneered, "How come I didn't know you were so good with words!"

After saying that, he coldly pushed her away.

"Xingjie, you just got back, what are you doing again?"

"Don't meddle in things that aren't your business. Just stay home and take good care of yourself during your pregnancy!" After saying this, Qian Xingjie grabbed something and hurriedly left. He ran into Jiang Xue in the living room but didn't even say a word.

This made Jiang Xue extremely embarrassed. But he was the young master of a big family, arrogant and conceited since childhood. It was already a blessing for the two of them that he would take a liking to Rou Rou and marry her.

Qian Xingjie had just left when the doorbell rang.

"Xingjie must have forgotten something, I'll go open the door!" Jiang Rourou opened the door with a happy expression, "Xingjie, you..."

"why you?"

Jiang Rourou was about to close the door when Mu Sha pushed her way in, leaving Jiang Rourou to the side.

"Rou Rou, are you alright?" Jiang Xue ran over and helped her daughter up, then turned to glare angrily at Mu Sha, "My daughter is pregnant now, this is the Qian family's child, does the Qian family know that? If anything happens to them, I don't think you could pay for it with ten heads!"

Mu Sha turned her head to look at Jiang Rourou and smiled sarcastically, "Qian family? Does she deserve it? As for the child in her belly, who knows whose bastard it is? Trying to make the young master a sucker, Jiang Rourou, you really have guts. You can fool others, but you can't fool me and Miss Ke'er!"

Jiang Rourou was displeased. She pushed her mother away and stood defiantly in front of her, saying, "What right do you, a mere servant, have to yell at me? Don't forget, once I marry Xingjie, you'll be half a master to me. The first person I'll deal with then will be you. So you'd better hurry up and curry favor with me now, or you'll regret it!"

Mu Sha chuckled, looking her up and down with disdain. "You really think marrying the young master makes you something special? Dream on! And let me remind you, a lowly illegitimate daughter like you doesn't deserve to marry into our Qian family. The young master's feelings for you are just a passing fancy. Until the wedding, nobody knows what will happen. You'd better pray you don't get kicked out by the young master!"

"Who...who are you calling an illegitimate daughter?" These words struck a nerve with Jiang Rourou.

Musa had long since figured out her background. "Isn't that right? Otherwise, how come you haven't even been given the surname Nan after your mother brought you into the Nan family for so long? What else could you be but an illegitimate child?"

"Shut up! You little servant, how dare you mock the future Young Mistress Qian like this? I'll tear your mouth apart right now and see if you dare to say another word!" Jiang Rourou said, lunging at Mu Sha.

Jiang Xue also helped to establish authority for her daughter.

Musa was a trained fighter; even if the mother and daughter attacked together, or even if another person joined the fight, they wouldn't be a match for her. She took care of the mother and daughter in no time.

"Rou Rou! Let go of my daughter, or I'll call Young Master Qian right now. We can't control you, but there are plenty of others who can. You're just a little servant, how dare you defy the heavens!"

Seeing that the two of them together couldn't defeat Mu Sha, Jiang Xue had no choice but to bring out Qian Xingjie.

Sure enough, Mu Sha's expression changed noticeably when she heard the name, and Jiang Rourou took advantage of her loss of virginity to pull her arm away.

"You damned lackey, you come here to yell at me, are you jealous of me? Oh, I know, you have a crush on Qian Xingjie?"

Musa felt a sense of panic, as if she'd been caught red-handed. "What's it to you?"

"Ha! I knew it!" Jiang Rourou seized the initiative immediately, circling Mu Sha twice slowly. "You said I'm not good enough for Young Master Qian, but what about you? Don't you even know who you are? Even if I'm an illegitimate child, I'm still the second young lady of the Nan family. And what are you? A lowly servant who serves tea and water, not even worthy to carry Young Master Qian's shoes, yet you dare to set your sights on your master? Don't be a toad trying to eat swan meat. It's not your turn!"

"You're talking nonsense. I never thought of that. I just... just..." Musa roared in rebuttal. She had no confidence, no chance of winning, and no right to do so. She just wanted to quietly like someone.

"I hit the nail on the head, so you have nothing to say now, huh?" Jiang Rourou propped up her lower abdomen, one hand on her hip, the other slowly stroking her belly in a very professional manner. "The child in my belly right now is the bone of your Qian family, the young master's child. You'd better be polite to me, or else..."

Mu Sha sneered, "Jiang Rourou, I advise you to be sensible. Don't think you're so important. The position of young mistress isn't so easy to hold. I'll be watching!"

She took two steps back, then turned and left.

Jiang Xue quickly closed the door. "How dare a mere servant speak to the future young mistress like that? It's outrageous and arrogant! Rou Rou, go and complain to your son-in-law and tell him to fire this slut immediately!"
