The streamer is incredibly popular, and the top spender on her is vying to pamper her.

Chapter 242 Aged Biluochun Tea

The incense burner emitted wisps of white smoke, and the rosewood tea table was set with exquisite Chinese pastries and tea.

The wind outside has subsided a bit, but the rain continues.

Grandpa Ji personally poured Jiang Zhouzhou a cup of tea: "Zhouzhou, have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up. This rain probably won't stop. I'll have someone prepare a room for you later. You can stay here for the night. Tomorrow, when the rain gets lighter, I'll have the driver take you home."

Jiang Zhouzhou accepted the teacup with both hands, the warmth spreading from the cup to her fingertips. She said obediently and politely, "Thank you, Grandpa Ji."

Although he didn't call him "grandpa," Grandpa Ji was still very satisfied.

He grinned and said, "Come here as if you're at home, don't be shy."

The old butler serving nearby couldn't help but cough twice, reminding the old man to be more perceptive.

The young master finally brought the girl back, and this old geezer is jumping around here, showing no sense of propriety at all, not knowing to give the two young people time and space.

Upon hearing the butler's cough, Old Master Ji frowned instantly and said unhappily, "Old Li, if you have a cold, go stand aside and don't infect Zhouzhou and Yu'an."

Old housekeeper: "..."

This family will fall apart sooner or later without him!

Ji Yu'an also felt that his grandfather was unusually talkative today. He said, "Grandpa, come here for a moment, I have something I want to tell you."

Old Master Ji blurted out instinctively, "We're all family, there's nothing we can't say in person..."

But seeing the look in his grandson's eyes, the old man shut up.

"Zhouzhou, have some tea first. I want to have a private chat with Yu'an."

Jiang Zhouzhou held her teacup in her little hands and nodded, "Mmm."

After the two figures disappeared, Jiang Zhouzhou quietly breathed a sigh of relief. She never expected that she would be pressured to get married one day.

Just about to take a small sip of tea...

Each of the servants standing nearby has only one line of dialogue.

Maid 1: "Young Master hasn't been this happy in a long time."

Maid 2: "The old man hasn't been this happy in a long time."

Maid 3: "This house hasn't been this lively in a long time."

Ginger porridge: (?Д?)

Is this really a human-machine interface?

The tea in the cup hadn't cooled down yet when Grandpa Ji and Ji Yu'an returned.

It's unclear what the two of them said, but Old Master Ji stopped constantly urging his wife to get married.

"Does Zhouzhou know how to play chess?" Grandpa Ji suddenly asked.

"If you don't know how to play chess, playing cards will do. It's a bit boring on this rainy day, so I'm looking for something to do. They all don't want to keep an old man like me company, so you won't mind, will you?"

He stared longingly at Jiang Zhouzhou, as if her refusal would hurt his aged and fragile heart.

Jiang Zhouzhou couldn't drink the tea she was holding anymore, since the Biluochun tea in front of her was more authentic.

"I can play chess, but I'm not very good at it."

When I was in school, a boy secretly brought a chess set to the classroom. He would give 50 cents to whoever won a game against him, and 10 cents to whoever lost.

Jiang Zhouzhou learned about the rules of chess at the time, and after losing the first game, she won back one yuan.

When Grandpa Ji heard that she could play chess, he laughed and said, "It's good that you can play chess! Girls who can play chess get even more points."

"Old Li, bring me my chessboard, I want to play chess with Zhouzhou."

The old butler, who was summoned and dismissed at will, twitched at the corner of his mouth. Not long after, he came over carrying a chessboard.

Grandpa Ji then said, "Grandson, go play a little tune for us. Playing chess alone is too monotonous."

Ji Yu'an: "..."

Bringing the piano over was too much of an exaggeration, so the old butler took out the folding piano that the young master used to treat as a toy.

Anyway, the old man has no artistic talent, so we can just do whatever we want to him.

It's still the same old story: this family will fall apart sooner or later without him.

Ji Yu'an strummed the black and white piano keys, his gentle gaze turning to Jiang Zhouzhou: "Zhouzhou, what would you like to hear?"

Jiang Zhouzhou thought for a moment, then smiled with her eyes crinkling, "Let's whisper in the autumn!"

Grandpa Ji interjected, "Grandson, I like the song 'Wedding in a Dream'."

Ji Yu'an: "Okay, then let's have Autumn Whispers."

For the first time, the usually eloquent Mr. Ji was speechless...

Sun Da is too old to stay at home!

The mournful sound of the piano blends with the sound of rain, creating a new musical movement.

Jiang Zhouzhou's gaze fell on the chess pieces that had been set up, with the Chu River and Han Border clearly defined.

After reviewing the chess rules in their minds, the two began their battle on the chessboard.

But gradually Jiang Zhouzhou felt something was wrong. Grandpa Ji was obviously letting her win, as if he wanted to feed her all the chess pieces.

So Jiang Zhouzhou inexplicably won the first round.

Grandpa Ji's praise continued incessantly in my ears: "Zhouzhou is too amazing. This old man is no match for her at all. But a bet is a bet. Since I lost, I'll give you that good-for-nothing grandson as a wager."

This turn of events left Jiang Zhouzhou dumbfounded: "..."

When did they mention the stakes?

When the piano piece went off-key a few times, Ji Yu'an knew that this old man was restless and was seizing the opportunity to put on a show of showing off his grandson.

Jiang Zhouzhou rearranged the chess pieces and then slowly said, "Grandpa Ji, Yu'an is a very outstanding person. I know you are concerned about his marriage, but such things require mutual consent. He will definitely meet someone who loves him very much and someone he loves in return. You don't need to rush."

Having fought in the business world for many years, even though he had completely suppressed his imposing manner, his sharp eyes could still tell at a glance that the obedient little girl in front of him had no romantic feelings for his grandson for the time being.

But it's okay, it's only temporary. Nobody can predict what will happen in the future.

“That’s right, I’m getting senile. I’m worried that I’ll suddenly pass away one day as I get older. That child has suffered a lot since he was little. His father doesn’t love him and his mother doesn’t care for him. He hasn’t had many good days with this old man like me. The thought of leaving him all alone in this world after I’m gone makes me unable to die in peace! So I want to take advantage of my life to settle his marriage as soon as possible…”

"Girl, you don't blame your grandpa for being long-winded, do you?"

Grandpa Ji wiped away his moist eyes, his aged face filled with worry for his grandson.

Jiang Zhouzhou shook her head: "I don't blame you, I understand how you feel."

The love of the parents is far-reaching.

Both she and Ji Yu'an were unwanted children, but he was luckier than her because he had a loving grandfather.

"Alright, you two young people can chat for a while. I'll go check if the medicinal soup is ready."

Grandpa Ji finally decided to leave, giving the two of them a chance to cultivate their relationship alone.

Ji Yu'an walked up to Jiang Zhouzhou and said somewhat helplessly, "Grandpa talks a lot, I hope you don't mind."

Jiang Zhouzhou raised her head and smiled slightly, "Don't worry! I didn't take it to heart."

Ji Yu'an's lowered gaze dimmed slightly; he did hope she would take it to heart...
