A woman in her 1970s remarried a tycoon with no heir, and gave birth to triplets, stunning the famil

She's still just a little girl. She says she's willing for her father to get married, but when the time comes, she's still scared.

Upon hearing the crying, the Jiang family members rushed out one by one, asking, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?" Jiang's mother ran over with concern.

Jiang Mingchuan ran out, clenching his fists: "Who bullied Xiuwan?"

Jiang Linwan rolled her eyes at him: "Who dares to bully Xiuwan?"

"What happened?" Jiang Mingwen asked, puzzled.

Jiang Ersao squatted down and looked at Xiuwan, asking, "Is someone gossiping about you again?"

As soon as she said that, everyone immediately understood what was going on.

Ever since the news of Jiang Mingchuan and Tian Zhaodi's relationship spread, many gossipy old women have been spreading rumors about it.

Saying things like "if you have a stepmother, you'll have a stepfather" is ridiculous. Some people even encourage their children to gossip in front of Xiuwan. These shameless people!

It's just that they're jealous that Zhao Di got together with her older brother first, and that the wishes of their nieces and the like were dashed.

Jiang Ersao: "Don't listen to those people's nonsense. Your Aunt Zhaodi is a good person. She will treat you well."

Tian Zhaodi squatted down in front of Xiuwan and patted her back: "Xiuwan, Auntie will treat you well. Auntie doesn't have to have children."

From now on, I'll treat you like my own daughter. I know anyone can say nice things, but you'll have to wait and see.

My aunt not only talks about it, but she also shows you how to do it.

Tian Xiangdi looked at her older sister, then at Xiuwan, and said, "Xiuwan, don't cry. I will treat you well in the future."

I can cook for you and do your laundry. If anyone bullies you, I'll help you fight them off.

Jiang Xiuwan buried her face in Jiang Linwan's chest, secretly glancing up at Tian Xiangdi, her face slightly flushed: "You're not even as tall as me, I don't need your protection."

"You're not a maid, why are you cooking for me and washing my clothes? I can do my own things."

Tian Zhaodi also tugged at her younger sister: "This isn't your sister, this is your niece."

Since she calls you "Auntie," you have to protect Xiuwan from now on, understand?

Seeing that Xiuwan's mood had improved considerably, Jiang Linwan smiled and said, "Xiuwan, why don't you stay at your aunt's house tonight?"

Auntie will make you noodles with soybean paste for dinner tonight.

"Auntie, I want to go!" Jiang Xiuqing shouted impatiently.

Jiang Linwan looked at Xiuwan and teased, "What's wrong? You're afraid to go?"

Jiang Xiuwan shook her head: "No way, I'll go too."

Aunt Zhaodi helped their family fight off bad guys last time; she's a good person, but they're also afraid that this woman might be faking it.

The woman who came to the school last time said that the stepmother is the best at pretending to be kind in front of outsiders, but as soon as it's just her and the stepmother, the stepmother will turn into a vicious queen.

If she becomes the wicked queen, she will demand that her father not marry her; if not, she will want a younger brother or sister.

"Alright, let's go to Aunt's house then!" Jiang Linwan looked at Jiang Mingchuan: "Big brother, pack some clothes for Xiuwan and Xiuqing."

"Can so many people fit in?" Jiang's mother asked.

Jiang Linwan: "Why not? I have an extra room. I can just find some boards and put the bed together to make it bigger." She lowered her voice as she spoke, "This is a good opportunity for Xiuwan and Zhaodi to get to know each other better."

Xiuwan is getting older and her mind has become more sensitive, unlike Xiuqing who is young and doesn't understand anything and doesn't think as much.

Jiang Mingchuan packed a few clothes for his two daughters, and then Jiang Linwan took them back to the family compound.

On the way back, she ran into Grandma Sun, who was carrying a tin bucket with Aunt Liu. She called out to Aunt Liu in surprise.

Aunt Liu looked at her with a delighted expression: "Is Zhao Di's matter settled?"

Jiang Linwan nodded: "We'll get married at the end of this month."

Aunt Liu smiled and looked at Tian Zhaodi: "That's great! I'm looking forward to drinking your wedding wine."

Tian Zhaodi blushed slightly.

Jiang Linwan leaned closer to Aunt Liu, somewhat curiously: "Why is she with you?"

When this was mentioned, Aunt Liu lowered her voice and said, "It's all thanks to your idea that it worked."

Guiying has been complaining these past few days that she has no appetite and wants to eat seafood, and the two younger children also feel that the food has been bad these past few days.

We sent Sister Sun to the beach to collect clams, but she complained that she was tired and wanted to go back after only a short while.

Just you wait and see, there'll be more trouble when we get back.

Jiang Linwan became even more curious and originally wanted to say a few more words, but Grandma Sun squeezed in and glared at the two of them: "Are you talking badly about me?"

Jiang Linwan was caught red-handed, a hint of guilt flashed across her face, but she pretended to be calm: "Aunt Sun, you're overthinking it."

"Why are you speaking so softly if you didn't say anything bad about me?" Grandma Sun glared at Jiang Linwan.

Jiang Linwan: "I can say whatever I want, and I'm happy to."

Grandma Sun choked on her words. As they approached the family compound, she shamelessly peered into Aunt Liu's bucket and said, "Sister Liu, look how many good things you've collected. Can you share some with me?"

If I find anything good tomorrow, I'll share some with you.

Aunt Liu refused almost without thinking: "These things look like a lot, but there's not much meat even after you take the shells off. There are many people in my family, and this isn't enough for us to eat."

If you want to wait until later to pick up another batch, then go then.

Grandma Sun didn't expect to be rejected. Back in the countryside, she could get anything she asked for if she had the nerve to ask.

Looking at Aunt Liu, she immediately looked disgusted: "Do you, a nanny, have the right to speak?"

I asked Dr. Jiang.

Aunt Liu's face turned red with anger at her words.

After saying that, Grandma Sun looked at Jiang Linwan and chuckled: "Dr. Jiang, your family is so rich, you can just buy whatever you want to eat."

Unlike my family, where only my son works and we have to support so many people, Guiying is pregnant now. You two are such good friends, why don't you give some of this meat to Guiying?

Jiang Linwan's expression turned cold: "Aunt Sun, watch your words. Aunt Liu is my mother-in-law's sister, not a nanny."

"They're all just servants, what difference does it make what they're called?" Old Mrs. Sun said disdainfully.

Aunt Liu's eyes immediately reddened, and she wanted to refute it, but it was indeed the truth.

"So, according to you, you're also Sister Guiying's nanny?" Jiang Linwan asked.

Grandma Sun immediately exploded: "How can that be the same? I'm her mother-in-law, and Liu Meizi is a servant who takes care of people. To put it nicely, she's a nanny; to put it bluntly, isn't she just a maid from the old days?"

After she finished speaking, she met Jiang Linwan's cold and stern gaze, and took a few steps back in fright: "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

Jiang Linwan: "Of course not, Aunt Liu is like a second mother-in-law to me."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Liu's eyes immediately reddened.

"She's just an old woman with no children to take care of her, that's why she became your housekeeper..."

"Aunt Sun, the old society is long gone. Don't hold onto those old feudal ideas and call others servants all the time."

"If you don't control your mouth, I'll go talk to the political commissar and have him personally teach Battalion Commander Sun a lesson in how to manage his household."

Grandma Sun stretched her neck and said, "Who are you trying to scare? You're so stingy."

They have no respect for elders or children at all. Humph, if they don't want it, they don't want it. Just wait until I've collected a lot more, and none of you will get it either.

After she finished speaking, she angrily ran back to the family compound with her bound feet.

Aunt Liu had red eyes and her head down, clearly in a bad mood.

Jiang Linwan affectionately took her arm: "Aunt Liu, don't listen to outsiders' nonsense. In my heart, you are half my mother-in-law."

If you don't believe me, ask Qiyue. In his heart, you're practically like a mother to him.

Aunt Liu looked up and wiped away her tears, her voice choked with emotion: "I'm just a servant, how could I be the young master's mother..."

"Why not? I was raised by Aunt Liu since I was a child, and my mother passed away early. You've long been like a second mother to me." Lu Qiyue walked towards the group.

Looking at Aunt Liu, whose eyes were red, he spoke in a steady voice.

His father was busy with work at that time, and Aunt Liu was always there for him. In his heart, Aunt Liu had long held a special place.

"Wanwan and I both consider you family. You don't have any children, so we are your children. We will take care of you in your old age."

Aunt Liu's eyes reddened even more as she looked at the two of them, overjoyed and speechless.

"Why are you crying for no reason? Crying too much is bad for your eyes," Jiang Linwan said, trying to comfort her.

Aunt Liu immediately wiped away her tears upon hearing this: "Yes, I can't cry. If I cry myself blind, how will I take care of your children in the future?"

Jiang Linwan smiled instantly and looked at Lu Qiyue: "Why are you back so early today?"

Lu Qiyue walked to her side and wrapped his arm firmly around her back: "I'm off tomorrow, so I came back a little early."

He lowered his body slightly, letting her lean on one shoulder: "If you're tired, lean on me."

Jiang Linwan was indeed quite tired, so she leaned most of her weight against him, draped her arm over his arm, and the two walked slowly.

"Let's have noodles with soybean paste for dinner. I think I can eat two bowls, along with the clams Aunt Liu picked, and a stewed fish..." Jiang Linwan muttered, leaning against him.

Lu Qiyue gazed at her profile with doting eyes and nodded with a smile: "Okay, I'll take you to eat other delicious food tomorrow when you're off work."

Jiang Linwan's appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and she has also started to like eating some sour foods: "Zhao Di said before that there are many orange trees on the back mountain of our Dayu Island. Can you take me to pick oranges tomorrow?"

Lu Qiyue rubbed her head and agreed, "Okay, I'll pick some more bananas for you later."

Tian Zhaodi watched the two figures disappear into the distance, her eyes filled with envy. This was probably the kind of love she longed for.

"Xiangdi, Xiuwan, when you look for a partner in the future, you should look for someone like your uncle [brother-in-law], who is handsome, capable, and good to his wife."

"Sister, I will." Xiangdi looked at the two of them from behind, her eyes full of surprise. She thought that all men would beat their wives, but she didn't expect that there could be such a gentle one.

Aunt Liu and the others slowed their pace and followed behind Lu Qiyue and Jiang Linwan.

That evening, Aunt Liu made their Beijing-style fried sauce noodles, with plenty of meat sauce coating the snow-white noodles, and the aroma was irresistible.

Tian Xiangdi sat in the chair, smelling the aroma and swallowing hard, while secretly observing the gazes of Jiang Linwan and Lu Qiyue.

Holding the porcelain bowl, I hesitated to use my chopsticks for a long time.

"Why aren't you eating? Hurry up and pick some up, or it'll all be gone." Jiang Linwan noticed that the gaze was directed at Tian Xiangdi. She smiled and put a piece of fish into her bowl.

Tian Xiang looked at the fish in the bowl and anxiously looked at Jiang Xiuwan.
