After everyone had left, Chiang Songhai and Ge Dejun were sitting together in the main room, smoking. Xu Linjiang had gone to return the tables and chairs to Aunt Juan's house, Liu Pei and Ge Xiaotong were helping Ge Liutao wash the dishes, while Chiang Xiao sidled up to Meng Xinian and asked in a low voice, "What did my grandpa put in the red envelope he gave you?"
Don't think she couldn't tell—the red envelope was thick. Chiang Songhai didn't have that much money, so it must have contained something else.
Meng Xinian reached out and pinched her nose.
"What 'my grandpa'? It's 'our grandpa'!"
Chiang Xiao swatted his hand away, "Meng Xinian, what is your deal, really? Keeping a young wife for fun? At your age, you should be seriously courting that pretty and cute young lady!"
Pretty and cute young lady?
Meng Xinian thought her way of speaking was funny. He couldn't help but tease her, "What's so fun about courting someone?"
