Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 178

"What do you mean?" Jenny raised her head abruptly.

Impossible! Teddie had a very good relationship with her father Karen. Back then, when many people framed Karen Jin, only Teddie and a few of person defended for Karen, and they were finally excluded by those people.

"It's not my guess, taste this..." Allen sighed, lifted a bag by his feet, took out a log box, and opened the box. There was a bottle of red wine in it.

Jenny asked for a corkscrew with the proprietress. After opening the red wine, the red liquid was poured into the glass. Jenny took a sip and looked slightly stagnant.

"Does it feel familiar?" Allen frowned and asked.

Jenny just couldn’t believe it, so she tasted a few more sips, "I dare not say that the taste is exactly the same, but it is really similar to the wine my dad made. The brewing method may be different and there will be deviations, but the taste is the same."

"The Jin’s wine has secret ingredients. If it weren’t for the exact formula, who could believe that Teddie made it by himself? So I can conclude that the person who sneaked into the Jin’s house and stole the secret recipe was Teddie."

"Why did he only steal one? Didn't my dad put all the secret recipes together?"

Allen couldn't answer. This was indeed very strange. Thirty-seven secret recipes are put together. If Teddie Palmer saw them all, why would he only take one of them?

"He may be in a hurry, or he may not want to attract attention. In short, no matter what his intentions are, it can be concluded that Teddie did it. Now he is the most critical person for us to contact Middle Up Group."

"Can you find him?"

"I will try. There is always someone who can find it." Allen lowered his head and looked at the wine glass, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Had it not been for his fault three years ago, the batch of wine sent to Beijing would have been fine.

He was sure that the batch of wine had been replaced.

Jenny was silent for a while, took out a bank card and sent it to Allen, "I saved some money in it..."

"I have money…"

Allen subconsciously refused her, how could he accept money from his niece?

"Just take it. This is the money I give you on behalf of my parents. I can't use so much money myself. You just came out from prison, you are definitely not rich. I warn you, if you go to the wharf again to make money, I will cut off relations with you."

Allen was stunned, but finally failed to convince Jenny.

"Don't be unsatisfied; it is not easy for ordinary people to get money from me."

Jenny glanced at her watch and quickly got up, "It's late, so I'll leave first. Otherwise, the old lady will find me missing when she goes back, then she will keep calling me."

"I will send you back."

"No, thank you. I could just call a taxi. This is not far from Flower House, but you should be careful on your way back. Call me if you have any problems."

On her way back, Jenny was thinking over and over again about the relationship between Teddie Palmer of Light Winery and his father. Teddie Palmer was about the same age as his father. They two were university classmates and had a good relationship and they even often researched new products together. How could such a thing happen?

When she got home, the old lady had not yet returned.

"Miss Jenny, welcome home."

"Yeah." Jenny replied, "Grandma hasn't come back yet?"

"Grandma is probably coming back soon. Mrs. Liu is not in good spirits, so they can't talk for too long. What do you want to eat? I'll go to the kitchen to prepare."

"No thanks," Jenny glanced at the direction of the backyard. "If grandma comes back, tell her that I am repairing flowers in the backyard."

"Ok."

Jenny was a little absent-minded. When she was pruning the flower branches, she accidentally trimmed a good peony flower and scared the servants into a frenzy.

"What can I do? This is the old lady's favorite peony..."

"Where can I buy it? If it is not too late, go and buy a new one..."

At a loss, Jenny put down the scissors and looked at the messy flower branches in front of her.

The old lady returned home. Upon hearing the noise coming from the backyard flower room, she smiled and walked over.

"What are you all doing around here? Don't you think that my peony flowers are beautiful? If any of you girls dares to break my peony, I will... god? Where's my flower?"

The crowd voluntarily stepped aside. The old lady only walked a few steps, then she saw the peony flowerpot with bare branches, her face suddenly sank.

"What happened?"

"Madam, we didn't do it. Miss Jenny trimmed the flower branch, and then accidentally broke it..." A servant hurriedly dismissed it.

The old lady stood there for a while, her expression froze. When she saw Jenny's bewildered expression, she suddenly laughed, "It's just a pot of flowers. What's the fuss about Miss Jenny breaking a pot of flowers? If you scare Miss Jenny, I will fire you all."

Just as she said, she took Jenny's hand, "Scared, right? Don't worry! It's just a pot of flowers; no matter how beautiful and expensive, it is just a pot of flowers."

"Grandma, it was my fault, I accidentally broke it..."

"What are you talking about? You are now a big project for the Lu family. In your belly, you have my only grandson. Compared with you and my baby grandson, let alone a pot of flowers, the flower room is nothing to say.

Grandma took Jenny's hand and walked to the dining table, "My good friend asked me to bring it to you. The desserts she makes are superb. She doesn't usually go to the kitchen often. Taste it."

Jenny was in a complicated mood. She took a bite of the desserts and her nose was sour. "It's delicious, you taste it too."

The old lady treated her sincerely. Maybe it was because she was pregnant at the beginning, but she never treated Jenny bad. Usually the old lady cared about Jenny, and her phone greetings had never been less. Even though Jenny lived in her own apartment before, the old lady often sent some packed food. Even if Jenny's biological grandmother was still alive, perhaps the best she could get was like this.

Jenny was grateful to the old lady from her heart, and because of this, she agreed to wait for the old lady to have the operation before confessing her false pregnancy.

When Jenny accompanied the old lady to dinner, the old lady mentioned the engagement.

"Jenny, don't blame your mother-in-law about the engagement. She cares about self-esteem most. She is probably worried that there will be too many scandals when you get married, so she wants to settle the marriage earlier and stop gossips. Your mother-in-law just cares about too many things."

"It's okay, what she did is reasonable." Jenny took a sip of the soup and smiled.

No one knew what Luke's mother thought, but the engagement was good for Luke, and she didn't think there was anything wrong for them.

There were two banquets for the engagement, one in Xicheng and the other in Beijing. In this way, she would have a chance to meet Yuky in Beijing, and maybe she would also have a chance to meet Yuky’s husband. Maybe those people related to the Jin's Wine would all appear at the banquet. This was a good opportunity for her.
