Education

Jiang Jin smiled and looked at Song Ning dotingly.0

Song Ning held Jiang Jin's hand and said, "Grandma's health is fine. My teacher came to check on Grandma and said I've taken good care of Grandma during this period of time…" She tried her best to cheer Jiang Jin up.

As expected, Jiang Jin smiled. "Let Mu Chen reward you on my behalf."

Song Ning nodded. "With the imperial edict from grandmother, it'll be easier for me to ask for a reward."

Jiang Jin pinched Song Ning's cheek gently as she said to Sister Yu, "This girl is too mischievous. How could Mu Chen not reward her without my words? I'm afraid Mu Chen would give all the good things to her to please her. Don't you think she's just trying to get a reward from me?"

Sister Yu smiled. "Well, a reward from Old Madam is different from Young Master's…"

Song Ning laughed. "That's right, that's right."

The trio laughed happily.

Jiang Jin felt slightly better as well.

After a while, Song Ning asked Sister Yu to raise the head of the bed so Jiang Jin would feel more comfortable. After that, she stood up and turned in a circle twice as she said, "Grandma, Sister Yu said my belly isn't showing much so she's convinced the baby is a girl. What do you think of a great-granddaughter, Grandma?"

Jiang Jin looked at Song Ning's still slender figure and said with a smile, "I think it's great. A great-granddaughter is good and lovable. Just thinking about how soft and cuddly she's going to be, melts my heart…"

Song Ning walked to the bedside and placed Jiang Jin's hand on her stomach. "Then Grandma has to listen to me in the future and take care of your health. I still need your help to take care of my child."

Jiang Jin nodded. "I will, I will."

After Jiang Jin's emotions stabilized, Song Ning finally said, "There's no problem with Mr. Mu's health; he just needs to rest. So don't worry, Grandma. Mu Chen said the matter has a lot to do with Mr. Mu so his illness…" She trailed off, not knowing if she continued to speak.

"He's faking it. I know. He's just looking for a way out…" Jiang Jin said lightly.

"Grandma, don't be angry. After all, it didn't cause any major loss. Mu Chen has said the losses incurred are all within his expectations and control," Song Ning said. She did not know how to comfort the astute old woman in front of her.

Jiang Jin sighed. "It's the family's misfortune… Without the traitors, would outsiders have a chance to act?"

Song Ning said softly and tentatively, "Grandma, Mu Chen and Cheng Che don't dare to visit you. They're outside."

"Why?"Jiang Jin asked.

"They said the method they used was vicious. Although it's for the good of the Mu family, they're family members after all. They're afraid you'll blame them for being too ruthless…" Song Ning said on behalf of the brothers.

Jiang Jin sighed and patted Song Ning's hand. "Tell them to come. I have something to say to them…"

"Alright," Song Ning said happily before she went to look for the two brothers.

"Slow down, slow down. Song Ning, don't forget that you're pregnant! Walk slowly!" Jiang Jin said worriedly.

Song Ning slowed down and opened the door of the ward.

The two brothers were right in front of the door, clearly eavesdropping, when Song Ning opened the door. They smiled sheepishly.

Song Ning motioned for them to come in.

Jiang Jin waved at them, asking them to sit in front of her. She asked Mu Chen calmly, "Has everything been dealt with?"

Mu Chen hurriedly nodded.

Jiang Jin said, "Mu Chen, you can't be too ruthless and force people to a dead end. Both of you must remember that a cornered dog will attack you. The gains won't be able to make up for the losses at that time. You have to wield your authority with the right balance between kindness and harshness…"

Mu Chen and Cheng Che listened carefully with earnest and respectful expressions on their faces, looking like primary school students.
