However, although the dimensions of a calligraphy and painting were one thing, what truly reflected its value was its content, the painter's status, and the level of art. As far as Jiang Qianxue was concerned, as long as it was good, she would like it.

"Open it and take a look. In order to find this thing, I, Uncle Li, have wasted a lot of time. You won't say that I was biased and you didn't even give me anything good when you got married right?" Li Pei An had a doting smile on his face.

Jiang Qianxue quickly took the scroll from Li Pei An and carefully opened it. Soon, her eyes lit up and her eyes were filled with surprise, shock, and disbelief as she exclaimed, "Mr. Zheng Peiqiao's [Spring Butterfly Flower Painting]!"

"Haha, how is it, Uncle Li didn't lie to you, right? This' Spring Butterfly Flower Fragrance Painting 'was previously in the hands of a foreign collector. When I was going to Europe, I met him that wanted to help, so I bought it." Li Pei An laughed.

"It's so beautiful. Mr. Zheng Banqiao's painting is indeed outstanding and extraordinary." Jiang Qianxue was full of joy as she watched. But after a while, she seemed to have realized something, and she quickly put the painting away and returned it to Li Pei'an.

"Uncle Li, this gift is too valuable. I can't accept it. I was just joking with you to act like a spoiled child."

"Heh, this girl, when did you see me take back the things that your Uncle Li gave you? Hurry up and put it away, otherwise, don't blame me for getting angry. " Hearing this, Li Pei An pretended to be angry, but his eyes were full of smiles.

"This …" Jiang Qianxue was still hesitant in her heart. Although she liked Zheng Banqiao's paintings, she also understood that there were some things that could not be randomly collected.

When Lin Jing saw this, his heart stirred. He said, "Qianxue, this is Uncle Li's good intentions. Please accept it. In the future, we will be family. Uncle Li will not bother us."

"Mm, I like what Lil 'Lin said. We're family, what kind of words are you talking about?" Li Pei An looked at Lin Jing and agreed.

Seeing this, Jiang Qianxue kept it. However, when the rest of the people at the table saw this, they felt slightly embarrassed.

They were all close friends with the Jiang family. Lin Pei'an had given him such a good gift and was now considered a "family". So what if the others were family?

As if he had felt the awkward atmosphere, Lin Jing smiled and said, "The Jiang Clan will always remember the assistance of uncles and uncles these past few years. Without everyone here, it would have been difficult for the Jiang Clan to come to this day." "The family did not talk much, and Grandmother also said that she wanted to invite all the uncles and uncles here today to help out with the Jiang family's future matters."

Lin Jing's words brought back the previous estrangement between them. Old Lady Jiang had also suddenly called everyone over with a serious expression, so it wasn't clear what had happened. This made everyone's hearts beat like drums.

Now that they heard Lin Jing's words, although they were somewhat ambiguous, they could all be considered to have a bit of confidence in themselves. At least it was better than having a black eye. There were even people who thought it more deeply. According to Lin Jing's words, it could be said that after so many years of being suppressed by Old Madame Jiang, she was finally going to be able to confirm who she was going to be?

In the past, the people who came to the side chamber were always the eldest brother and the second brother's family. Today, this matter seemed to be extremely important, yet the third brother's daughter and son-in-law were sent here.

However, no matter how bold their guesses were, they didn't think that Old Granny Jiang would directly skip Second and Second Brother and choose Third Brother as her successor. After all, everyone had noticed that although Jiang Yuncai hadn't committed any grave mistakes in the past few years, he hadn't displayed any great capabilities either.

They did not want to be in charge of the Jiang family in the future. After all, if the Jiang family's profits were to drop, everyone would be implicated.

The only person who was truly happy was probably Li Peian. Of course, he hoped that Jiang Yun would be able to stand up for him.

During this period of time, Jiang Yunsheng and Jiang Yunmao had joined hands to try and end Jiang Yuncai's escape route. Li Peian had been helping them with many things, but gradually, he began to feel weak.

Although he had a good relationship with Jiang Yuncai, it was not to the extent that he could involve the Lee family. If Old Granny Jiang could put him on the right side and even pay a little more attention to this matter, the situation would improve greatly.

Taking a step back, even if there was no such thing, Jiang Yuncai being ousted from the list of the Jiang Family's heirs was definitely not good news for Li Peian.

Both of them were vindictive villains. Now that he had helped Jiang Yuncai, they would definitely settle the score later. With old lady Jiang around, they might not dare to make any reckless moves, but some movements in the open and in the dark would definitely not be small.

Lin Jing's gaze calmly swept over the crowd. What he had said was not something he had said on the spur of the moment. In fact, after Uncle Yun had asked them to come to the side chamber to greet the guests, he had already planned things out.

Since he was going to help his father-in-law improve his status, he had to spare no effort and seize the opportunity. This was a great opportunity.

As for the effect, he was naturally very satisfied.

Lin Jing discovered that he had been humiliated and looked down upon for a long time, so enduring the seemingly unbearable pressure wasn't a good thing. At the very least, in these past few years, he had understood too many people's faces. In this world, there were no eternal friends, nor were there any eternal enemies. In the shopping mall, this point was placed on the table without any concealment.

These people in front of him, why were their attitudes unclear before? They had even secretly moved towards the other side while watching the flames from the other side of the river. Wasn't it because of Jiang Yun's current strength that they were unable to contend against Jiang Yunsheng?

They knew that there was a hole in front of them, so they obviously wouldn't jump into it. However, once they smelled something else in the air, they would immediately change their direction of action.

Before the situation was clear, he would have a certain psychological advantage, which would be of great help to the subsequent development.

It didn't matter if Old Madame Jiang was truly planning on announcing the position of the successor to everyone, Lin Jing had helped Jiang Yuncai bring him back to the city from a broad perspective.

Of course, these were only his thoughts and calculations. On the surface, he was still the same as usual. Most of the time, he didn't seem to exist in the Jiang Clan, unless he was met with a situation where he needed a clown to stand out and be mocked by everyone.

But Lin Jing felt this was actually quite good. At least for the most part, he was looked down upon by everyone. For a person who looked down on, there was no need for them to conceal their identity.

A piece of trash, a cripple, and an inverted door, he could not even utter a single word in his own home and could not wait to kick the person out that night. Even if he told him what he wanted, what could he do?

The more it was like this, the more advantageous it was for Lin Jing.

However, there were those present who had sharp eyes. Naturally, that person was Li Peian. He didn't think much of Lin Jing at the beginning, or it could be said that he despised him.

He treated Jiang Qianxue as his niece. If it weren't for the fact that his son married too early, he would have already planned for her to become his daughter-in-law.

But today, he discovered something different.

He looked around to see how many people that thought they were good and experienced had been taken in by Lin Jing with just a few words. If they were this kind of "trash", he would have taken as much as he could.

Narrowing his eyes, Li Pei An looked at Lin Jing and asked with a smile, "Lin Jing, you've been at the Jiang family for quite some time, right?"

Lin Jing didn't know what to do when he suddenly heard Li Pei An's question, but he quickly recovered and honestly replied, "Uncle Li is right. Qianxue and I have been married for several years."

"When are you going to have children?" Li Pei An's second question was a bit sharp.

Lin Jing and Jiang Qianxue were startled at the same time. Lin Jing didn't understand what Li Pei An meant, but Jiang Qianxue felt embarrassed.

Why is he getting a child?

"Ha, Uncle Li, all the uncles are here. Sorry, I came late. I didn't greet you well, so please don't lower yourself to the younger generation."

Just as Lin Jing was racking his brains to think of an answer and Jiang Qianxue was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury her head in her chest, an extremely disgusting and disgusting voice suddenly sounded out, breaking the awkward silence.

Jiang Tao walked in with a boastful expression. He inadvertently glanced at Lin Jing and Jiang Qianxue and sneered, "Hey, the sun has risen from the west. Third sister and third sister, why have you come to the side chamber today?"

Although he was grateful that Jiang Tao had helped him avoid a question that was temporarily unanswerable, Lin Jing didn't have the slightest hesitation when it came to slapping him. With a smile, he said to Jiang Tao, "Big brother, you probably don't know about this. Grandmother told us to come over. There are a lot of guests today, so we can't busy ourselves."

"Grandma told you to come?" Jiang Tao frowned. With a dark look in his eyes, he said coldly, "How is that possible? What nonsense are you spouting?"

Upon seeing Jiang Tao's reaction, everyone couldn't help but slightly raise their eyebrows. As long as they compared each other slightly, everyone would look forward to it. Lin Jing's previous performance had been very calm, and now Jiang Tao looked very flustered and flustered. It hadn't even started yet and he was already at a loss of what to do. How could he continue?

Jiang Yunsheng only had one son. He had no other choice, unless he didn't want his bloodline to inherit his estate. This was obviously impossible. But now that Jiang Tao was like this, no matter how strong Jiang Yunsheng was …

As a result, Jiang Tao helped Lin Jing, or to be more accurate, helped Jiang Yun. However, he didn't notice this at all. His gaze towards Lin Jing was still filled with contempt and disdain.
