Jiang Su nodded, "I overheard my grandfather saying that. Shh, don't tell anyone. I only mentioned it to you because you're his daughter-in-law."

Gu Nuannuan nodded, "Don't worry, I won't talk about such important matters outside."

The two leaned in and whispered to each other, while the man behind them stood in the scorching sun with his hands in his pockets, watching them.

"...Um, Gu Nuannuan, don't tell my family about the three times you knocked me down."

"Don't worry, I'll spare you the embarrassment. Plus, if I tell your family, your mom might kill me."

Gu Nuannuan patted Jiang Su's shoulder, "I didn't expect it. Your uncle turned out to be Jiang Chenyu. I only knew you were a second-generation official, not a second-generation wealthy."

"You haven't told me why you married my uncle yet."

"That's a good question. I also want to know why I ended up marrying your uncle."

Only Jiang Lao knew the real reason behind this absurd marriage.

But he kept it to himself.

A small black house in the backyard caught Gu Nuannuan's interest, "Hey, look, that little black house. Have you been inside?"

"I have, that house was specially set up for me by my little uncle."

Gu Nuannuan: "...So, did you draw those lines on the wall?"

"Are you saying you've been inside?"

Both of them were surprised.

"Yeah."

"Yeah."

They suddenly felt a strong sense of camaraderie upon seeing each other, as if they were seeing a comrade-in-arms. Gu Nuannuan and Jiang Su shook hands, "We share the good times and the bad."

"Oh, by the way, Gu Nuannuan, as a new bride just entering the family, why were you in there?" Jiang Su was curious.

Usually, he would be thrown in there when he committed unforgivable mistakes. How could a new bride like Gu Nuannuan be punished like that?

"You don't know, I've had countless arguments with your mom and even fought with her."

"Jie, thank you for going easy on my mom."

"No need to thank me. But I didn't expect she was your mom. I'm moving out this afternoon, so I won't quarrel with your mom anymore."

"Why did you quarrel with my mom? I know my mom's personality well, she cares a lot about her reputation and wouldn't quarrel with you."

"It's a long story. I only figured out the root cause last night."

Jiang Su looked at his little uncle standing in the sun and couldn't believe it. He rubbed his eyes, took a closer look, and confirmed that it was indeed his little uncle. "Gu Nuannuan, why is my uncle standing in the sun watching us?"

Gu Nuannuan turned around, raised her hand to her forehead, squinted at her husband, and said, "Probably sunbathing for vitamin D."

"That makes sense."

Jiang Chenyu couldn't bear to watch anymore. He reached into his pocket and approached the two.

Seeing Jiang Chenyu approaching with a stern expression, even though it was a hot summer day, both of them felt a chill.

They stood obediently, as if they were new recruits waiting for their instructor's reprimand.

Jiang Chenyu walked up to them, his face dark, and asked sternly, "You haven't had enough sun overseas, so you have to come out and sunbathe when you're back home?"

"Uncle, you're also sunbathing for vitamin D," Jiang Su retorted.

Jiang Chenyu looked at Gu Nuannuan, "And you, mind your boundaries, he's your nephew."

The two at the table: "..."

After speaking, Jiang Chenyu grabbed Gu Nuannuan's hand and left the backyard.

Gu Nuannuan stumbled as she was pulled, almost falling, and Jiang Chenyu caught her, "Eyes are for watching the road."

"Oh~"

Gu Nuannuan was pulled away, and she turned her head to mouth to Jiang Su: "Your uncle is angry."

Jiang Su mouthed back: "I know."

Jiang Chenyu felt the interaction between his nephew and wife and pulled her even harder.

"Ouch," Gu Nuannuan stumbled again, and Jiang Chenyu hugged her around the waist, pushing her forward.

They arrived at the dining room, where lunch was ready.

Jiang Chenyu didn't want to stay for a moment longer. It wasn't a good thing for his wife to be so familiar with his troublesome nephew. "Let's not eat at home, let's go straight to where we're staying."

Jiang Lao spoke up, "Why the rush? Xiao Su just got back. Let's have a family reunion lunch together today. You can't leave this afternoon."

Gu Nuannuan was closest to Jiang Chenyu, and she sensed that something was off with him, so she kept silent.

Soon, Jiang Su leisurely strolled into the dining room and sat down at his usual spot.

He didn't say a word to detain Jiang Chenyu.

Because even if he did, everyone would know it was insincere.

Jiang Su picked up his chopsticks to eat, and his mother noticed the tattoo on his right thumb.

Wei Aihua pointed to her son's hand and asked, "Xiao Su, what's this? How can you be such a bad influence?"

"Mom, tattoos aren't a bad influence, it's a sign of being in touch with society," Jiang Su said.

Wei Aihua looked at Jiang Chenyu, "Chenyu, say something to Xiao Su, we can't control him."

That's how it was in the Jiang family. Jiang Chenyu's visits home were usually spent disciplining his nephew.

Jiang Su saw Jiang Chenyu's gaze and immediately hid his hand behind his back, "Uncle, I'm already eighteen..."

"Don't let me see tattoos on your hand again, either chop it off or get rid of the tattoo," Jiang Chenyu said coldly.

Jiang Su's face fell, and he looked at Gu Nuannuan, hoping his new aunt and tablemate would say something for him.

But Gu Nuannuan was puzzled, "Why are you looking at me? Your uncle's the one telling you to chop off your hand, not your aunt."

Jiang Chenyu said, "Three minutes, if it's not gone by then, I'll get someone to help you."

"Please, I can get rid of it in a minute." Jiang Su's face was downcast. He went to the bathroom and came back with his hand completely clean, without a trace of the "tattoo."

Gu Nuannuan suddenly realized, "So you had a fake one."

Jiang Su didn't dare to actually get a tattoo on his body. But to satisfy his craving, he spent a hefty sum on a lifelike temporary tattoo to stick on his hand.

For this, he even bought a ring to match the fake tattoo.

Jiang Lao also started criticizing his grandson's appearance, "What's with the earring, son? Take it off."

"Grandpa, it's called being trendy and fashionable. Young people are like this nowadays," Jiang Su argued.

Jiang Lao said to Jiang Chenyu, "Chenyu, you deal with him."

Jiang Chenyu looked at Jiang Su without saying a word, just disdainfully.

"Uncle, I'm twenty years old now, you said you wouldn't control me once I turned eighteen..." Jiang Su made one last struggle.

Jiang Chenyu looked at his nephew coldly, "Do you want me to say it for the second time?"

Jiang Su didn't dare to resist, obediently taking off his earring.

Jiang Lao nodded in satisfaction, "That's more like it, you look like a student now."

Mayor Jiang couldn't stand his son's constantly changing hair color, and this time it was some weird color, definitely not black. "Dye your hair black."

Jiang Su instinctively looked at Jiang Chenyu.

Gu Nuannuan also turned to look at her husband.

Gu Nuannuan thought to herself: This husband of mine is quite something. With just a few words and a single look, without laying a hand on Jiang Su, he managed to get him to comply. She was somewhat impressed.

Jiang Chenyu asked Jiang Su, "Do I need to say it three times?"

Jiang Su clenched his fists behind his back, "Uncle, this hair is natural. Even if I dye it back to black, I still need to go to the hair salon. Can I do it after lunch?"

Jiang Chenyu: "I want to see your hair black within three hours."

"Okay, got it."

Jiang Lao said to Jiang Chenyu, "Don't leave in the afternoon. If you go now, there won't be anyone to discipline Jiang Su."

Wei Aihua hadn't spoken to Jiang Chenyu and his wife all day. Just as she opened her mouth, she tried to keep him, "Why don't you stay? If Chenyu stays, he can help me deal with Jiang Su."

"Mom, just eat. Let me serve you meat." Jiang Su hurriedly blocked his mother's mouth, refusing to let her say anything to keep Jiang Chenyu from leaving.

The big demon uncle and the little demon sitting together, if one leaves, they both leave. If one stays, they both stay.

Jiang Su just wanted them to leave!

Quickly!

In the afternoon, the luggage was packed, with only Jiang Su's brown hair left to dye.

Jiang Chenyu stared displeased at his nephew, "When are you going to change your hair?"

Facing his uncle, Jiang Su's heart raced. He swallowed, "Uncle, can you go first? I promise I'll dye it black before nightfall."

But Wei Aihua slapped her son on the back, "What are you saying? How can you speak so straightforwardly and chase Jiang Chenyu away?"

However, Wei Aihua was conflicted. She wanted Jiang Chenyu and his wife to leave, but she also wanted Jiang Chenyu to stay and help discipline Jiang Su.

Seeing that Jiang Chenyu was getting impatient, the housekeeper said, "I'll get the razor."

"Uncle, I'll go now, I promise!" Jiang Su grabbed the housekeeper's hand, instantly cowering in front of his uncle.

He had planned to show off his new hair color to his friends tonight, but now, seeing his uncle, it seemed impossible.

Frustrated, he couldn't help but complain to his uncle's wife, but she just kept smiling, finding amusement in his submission to his uncle.

Their silent communication infuriated Jiang Chenyu.

He looked at his newlywed wife, his eyes narrowing with pressure, "Are you happy to see Jiang Su?"

Not paying full attention to Jiang Chenyu's question, she instinctively responded with a vague "Ah?", which was misinterpreted as affirmation by him, fueling his anger further.

Wei Aihua sensed Jiang Chenyu's displeasure, but her brainless son and annoying sister-in-law seemed oblivious to it. In fact, they seemed to be adding fuel to Jiang Chenyu's fire.

Jiang Su, the troublesome nephew, walked up to them and grabbed his sister-in-law's wrist. "You, come with me."

With that, he pulled his uncle's wife away right in front of him.

Still happily following Jiang Su, his wife disappeared with him.

In the now silent living room, tension hung in the air.

Jiang Chenyu cleared his throat. "Big sister-in-law, Jiang Su is twenty this year, right?"

"Um, yes, but, but Chenyu, he's still young," Wei Aihua realized that Jiang Chenyu wanted to discipline his son.

Jiang Chenyu turned to look at the two who had disappeared, "He's not that young anymore. It's time for him to get married."

Wei Aihua's mouth twitched: Twenty years old, not that young? Time to get married?!

He said it so calmly.

Meanwhile, the two who had disappeared reappeared on the lawn in the backyard.

Jiang Su handed his phone to his sister-in-law. "Come on, hurry up. I need to dye my hair back to black before it gets dark."

Taking the phone, his sister-in-law laughed freely. "Jiang Su, you're just pathetic. You've lost all your dignity."

Jiang Su blinked rapidly, feeling indignant, but knowing better than to show it in front of his uncle. He stood on the lawn, hands in his pockets, striking what he thought was his most charming pose. "How's this pose? Irresistible, right?" He narcissistically asked the woman taking his picture.

His sister-in-law backed away, snapping photos feverishly. "Change your pose. If you don't hurry up, you won't get another chance."

Thinking of the future with only black hair, Jiang Su changed his pose as quickly as a model in a Taobao shop. Before his sister-in-law could capture him, he had already changed positions.

Jiang Chenyu stood by the window, watching the young people frolicking outside.

The smile on his wife's face was the happiest she had been since she married into the Jiang family.

"Come here."

"Second Young Master, what are your orders?" Two servants appeared by Jiang Chenyu's side.

Jiang Chenyu raised his chin, indicating the two outside, "Bring Jiang Su back and shave his head."

Wei Aihua was shocked by this. Jiang Chenyu was actually serious!

She hurriedly stepped forward to plead, "Chenyu, listen to your sister-in-law. Jiang Su knows he's wrong. I'll teach him later. Don't really shave Jiang Su's hair. He's your nephew."

Jiang Chenyu's gaze was firm as he looked outside at the two who had just been playing around. One of them was already being escorted back inside by the house servants.

"Hey, why are you doing this? I was just taking a photo. I was going to post it to prove that I really dared to dye my hair. Why are you arresting me? Why don't you go arrest Gu Nuannuan?" Jiang Su protested against the injustice.

Holding Jiang Su's phone, his sister-in-law yelled at him, "Jiang Su, how shameless can you be? I took photos for you under the scorching sun, and now you let the servants arrest me? If I don't give you a good beating every three days, you'll forget where you are."

She walked into the living room with the phone, "Believe it or not, I'll delete all the photos I just took?"

Jiang Su: "No, that's my life!"

Jiang Chenyu's face darkened. He pointed to a chair, "Make him sit down and hold him still. The housekeeper will shave his head."

What!

Shave his head?!

For real?!

"Uncle, I was wrong. I'll go dye my hair now." Jiang Su begged for mercy.

His sister-in-law, who held grudges, remembered Jiang Su's actions just now. She was enjoying this moment of revenge. "Husband, just shave his head. Teach him a lesson."

Wei Aihua glared at her sister-in-law. She was just stirring up trouble.

But Jiang Chenyu, because of her calling him "husband," felt a tremor in his heart.
