Chapter 41 Ye Chen, Be Careful
Grandpa Jiang recounted many old stories, his biggest worry being that the younger generation would get involved in the disputes, as the situation in Jiangcheng was not as calm as it appeared on the surface.
"Xiao Ye, Ruo Xi, if you don't have anything to do, don't get involved in the conflict with the Zhou family. As far as I know, Zhou Xinde, the person in charge of the Zhou family, is not someone to be trifled with."
Old Master Jiang was telling the truth. He wasn't afraid; he just didn't want to cause trouble.
For more than 20 years, the Jiang family and the Zhou family have lived in peace without any conflict.
This time, Ye Chen has only been here for less than a month, and he has already clashed with the Zhou family twice, even breaking the arm of a Zhou family junior. This is blatant provocation.
Such a situation would be intolerable even for an ordinary family, let alone the renowned Zhou family.
"Grandpa, don't worry, we won't cause trouble. Even if someone bullies us, we will never fight."
Ye Chen is trying to be clever again.
Grandpa Jiang was amused, and pointed at Ye Chen with a look of feigned anger, saying, "Young Ye, I might have believed what Ruoxi said, but it's unreliable coming from you. You've clashed with the Zhou family several times already, haven't you?"
"Grandpa, that's not true. I'm only in my early twenties. I'm just coming down the mountain to fulfill my marriage vows, not to cause trouble. Grandpa, please don't tell anyone else!"
Ye Chen began to make excuses, unwilling to admit that he had caused trouble.
"Hehe, Xiao Ye, whether you admit it or not, your affair with the young master of the Zhou family will have to be resolved sooner or later. As long as there is reason and evidence, that's all that matters."
"Grandpa, how do you know all this? Who told you?"
After saying that, Ye Chen turned to look at Jiang Ruoxi.
Jiang Ruoxi shook her head innocently.
"Xiao Ye, it wasn't Ruoxi who told me. You made such a big fuss, it was even on the TV news. I bet the whole of Jiangcheng knows about it. There were even exclusive reports, it was all very sensational."
After Grandpa Jiang finished speaking, a barely perceptible look of worry flashed across his face.
Ye Chen held his grandfather's hand and patted it gently: "Grandpa, it's alright, don't worry. I've studied with my master for twenty years, and my skills weren't acquired in vain. I will protect Ruoxi and safeguard the Jiang family..."
"Xiao Ye, I feel at ease with you by Ruoxi's side. Ruoxi, in the future, you should consult with Xiao Ye more when you encounter problems, and make decisions after discussing them. You must not act rashly."
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'll handle things at work. You don't need to worry."
"Oh, by the way, Xiao Ye, Ruo Xi, please be very careful in Jiangcheng!"
Having traversed Jiangcheng for decades and weathered countless storms, Old Master Jiang naturally knew the city's treacherous nature.
Jiang Ruoxi understood the deeper meaning behind her grandfather's words; her parents had both died in a car accident more than ten years ago.
Thinking about all this, Jiang Ruoxi sighed at her tragic fate. She was raised by her grandfather, and all her skills were taught to her by him.
"Grandpa, let's eat. Stop chatting..." Jiang Ruoxi walked behind Grandpa Jiang and gently massaged his shoulders.
"Alright, let's have dinner together! These happy days are getting fewer and fewer!" Old Master Jiang said something quite meaningful, which made Ye Chen and Jiang Ruoxi feel a little sad.
As Grandpa got older, he had more to say. After Jiang Ruoxi's father passed away, her uncle was not very helpful and was rarely home. Her aunt also returned home much less often after getting married.
Many young people today are unwilling to have children, and most families consist of two only children. They have to support four or more elderly people, and face great work and life pressures.
With more and more elderly people living alone, people like Grandpa Jiang naturally hope to be surrounded by their children and grandchildren and enjoy the joys of family life.
"Grandpa, don't overthink it. My old master is living a very carefree life, always elusive and enjoying himself in some corner. You should learn from him. Ruoxi can manage the company."
Ye Chen's words pleased Grandpa Jiang. Indeed, as people get older, they should listen to the younger generation and avoid causing them trouble.
Jiang Ruoxi pinched Ye Chen hard and told him very seriously, "Be more polite when you talk to Grandpa in the future. Pay attention to your language. You're so young, you should know how to respect your elders. How could you call your grandmaster an old geezer?"
"No, Ruoxi, my grandmaster often talks about himself like that, and I say it to his face. Is there a problem with that?"
Ye Chen questioned Jiang Ruoxi, unconvinced.
"I just don't think it will work. Why don't you say it again and see?"
"My grandmaster is called 'Old Immortal,' so what?"
"Ye Chen, are you looking for death?"
"I...I..." Ye Chen immediately shut up. He knew that Jiang Ruoxi was about to use her trump card. This woman was unreasonable when she went crazy, so it was better to give in.
"Ruoxi, Ye Chen is right. His grandmaster called himself an old immortal and liked others to call him that. I called him that when we arranged your marriage twenty years ago, and I still do now."
Jiang Ruoxi was a little confused; she couldn't believe that anyone had such a hobby.
Sigh, it's true that in a big forest, you'll find all kinds of birds.
"You two should stop bickering. If you're like this all the time here, what would your home be like? Two people together need to understand and support each other. Don't argue over trivial things. Got it, Ruoxi?"
"I'll remember that, Grandpa. Why are you always criticizing me? You're always siding with outsiders. Are you in such a hurry to marry me off?"
"Silly girl, a girl will definitely get married when she grows up. Even if you like someone a lot, you can't keep them by your side forever. Grandpa has to think about your happiness."
"Grandpa, I don't want to get married. I want to stay by your side for the rest of my life and protect you."
After dinner, Ye Chen and the others chatted with Grandpa Jiang for a while, mostly hoping that they would get married soon, so that Grandpa Jiang's wish would be fulfilled.
Grandpa Jiang was very worried about his two grandchildren, fearing that something might happen to them. When Ye Chen and Jiang Ruoxi left, he repeatedly instructed them: "When you two go home, remember to behave yourselves and don't argue with others. In life, suffering a loss is a blessing."
Jiang Ruoxi and Ye Chen agreed to their grandfather's request, telling him not to worry so much. They believed that young people had their own ways of handling things, and their ultimate goal was the same: to ensure that they would not suffer any losses and that the Jiang family would not be harmed in any way.
"Honey, I see that Grandpa and Grandma are much better, but why are their eyes full of sadness? They weren't like this last time. We should go home to visit Grandpa more often in the future."
While driving, Ye Chen shared his thoughts.
"Hey, hey, let me correct you. That's my grandfather, not your grandfather. Watch your words, don't take it seriously."
"Honey, look! Isn't that Zhou Tianhao? What's he doing?"
