35-year-old Jiang Li was unmarried and childless, running her own small company with an annual income of several million, living a wonderful life.
19-year-old Jiang Li was pretty but brainles...
Jiang Longtao was still busy peeling the yam skin, and Jiang Li was also working at first. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
She put down her things and turned to walk out. Jiang Longtao immediately stood up and chased after her.
"Jiang Li, where are you going?"
"I want to discuss something with the captain!"
Jiang Li talked as she walked, and Jiang Longtao followed behind her.
"Did something happen? I'll go with you."
"It's just a small matter. I can do it myself. You should continue working. You can rest for a while if you are tired."
Jiang Li didn't want Jiang Longtao to get involved in his own personal affairs, so he walked faster.
Jiang Longtao turned his head to look at her expression. The usually calm person now looked anxious, and it didn't look like a trivial matter.
Jiang Longtao was worried, so he chased him even harder.
"I'm really fine, don't follow me."
Jiang Li wanted to persuade him, but Jiang Longtao shook his head firmly.
"Your condition isn't right. I'm worried you might get into an accident. If you don't want me to eavesdrop on your affairs, I'll wait at the door. I just need to make sure you're okay."
Jiang Li stopped talking and drove his sports car to the captain's house.
It was almost dinner time and Yao Qiaoyun was cooking at home.
"Auntie, are you home? I have something to talk to you about."
"I'm here, come in and tell me what you want."
Yao Qiaoyun scooped a ladle of water from the pot, wiped her hands on herself, and hurried out to open the door for her.
Seeing Jiang Longtao was there too, Yao Qiaoyun was a little surprised and almost asked why he was here too.
"Aunt, I think Jiang Li is not in good condition, so I came here to check on him. I won't come in. If you have anything to say, just say it yourself. I'll just wait at the door."
Jiang Longtao took out a cigarette case and lighter from his pocket and was about to light one up when Jiang Li happened to turn around and glanced at him indifferently.
Jiang Li didn't say anything, but Jiang Longtao immediately understood the look.
Jiang Li doesn't like men who smoke!
Jiang Longtao silently put away the cigarettes and lighter, thought for a moment, and threw them on the ground.
"I heard smoking is bad for you, so I won't smoke anymore!"
"You really don't want these things anymore?"
Yao Qiaoyun pointed at the cigarettes and lighter on the ground and asked, and Jiang Longtao quickly shook his head.
"No, no, no, I'm going to quit from today on, and I won't smoke anymore."
"You don't smoke my man smokes, and since you don't want it and it can't be wasted, I'll pick it up."
"Aunt, why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known you wanted it, I would have handed it to you with both hands. How could I have asked you to bend down to pick it up?"
Jiang Longtao quickly picked up the cigarette and lighter and handed them to Yao Qiaoyun.
Yao Qiaoyun put the thing into her pocket without hesitation, then put her arm around Jiang Li's shoulder and walked inside.
But I was thinking in my heart that Jiang Longtao is a pretty good guy. He looks unreliable, but he is actually very capable and his family conditions are among the best in the village.
The key is that this guy is tall and has long legs, a pretty good figure, and a handsome face. There are quite a few girls in the village who are fascinated by him.
But how could an unmarried young man like him, who has a good figure, good looks and a good family background, fall for Jiang Li, a woman who just gave birth to a child?
Yao Qiaoyun did not look down on Jiang Li. In fact, she also admired Jiang Li's self-improvement. He was a good parent and had a good character in educating his younger brother.
She was afraid that Jiang Longtao was young and fickle, and was only attracted to Jiang Li's appearance. Once they were together, he would feel burdened by her family conditions and regret it.
Jiang Li has suffered too much, and Yao Qiaoyun has long regarded her as her own daughter and is reluctant to let her suffer any harm.
If Jiang Longtao really has feelings for her, she has to help check and make sure it is suitable before letting him get close to Jiang Li!
The yard door was open, and since there was a guard outside, there was no need to worry about things getting lost.
"Auntie, I smelled the delicious food as soon as I came in. Were you preparing to cook? How about I help? It would be more comfortable for us to talk while we work."
As soon as Jiang Li entered the door, she took the initiative to help with the work, mainly to repay Aunt Yao for her previous care.
Yao Qiaoyun bent down to wash the vegetables, while Jiang Li was responsible for cutting them.
The two chatted about some family matters at first, and neither of them got to the point.
After a while, Yao Qiaoyun couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Li, you came to me in such a hurry, what's the matter?"
"Auntie, I came here this time to ask for your help."
As soon as Jiang Li said something was wrong, Yao Qiaoyun felt uneasy.
The last time he came to find them was because he sold his younger brother and sister. What’s the matter this time?
Yao Qiaoyun waited for a long time but Jiang Li didn't say anything, and Yao Qiaoyun became more and more anxious.
"What's the matter? Tell me! I'm going to die if you don't tell me!"
"It's not a big deal, actually. It's just that my aunt's family always has their eyes on my two children. Look, first my aunt came over herself, but after being kicked out, she asked my eldest and second uncles to come over."
"Then the street kid came over. It goes without saying that Mr. Long was hired by my uncle. But he's been keeping his mouth shut and refuses to give in. Now the Public Security Bureau can't do anything about him."
"My cousin came over a while ago. Tell me, she seems to be close to me on the surface, but what are her real intentions? We both know it clearly."
"I finally managed to drive them away, and I don't know what tricks they'll play next. I'm even more afraid they'll find out about me, and then go around slandering me and ruining my reputation."
Jiang Li's face turned red when she said this. The original owner didn't have much of a reputation, so she also had no reputation.
Now that she suddenly mentioned reputation, Jiang Li was afraid that Aunt Yao would laugh at her.
"You're right. You've said so much. How do you want me to help you?"
Yao Qiaoyun became anxious again. We are so familiar with each other, just tell me what’s going on. It makes me anxious when I hear you keep silent.
"My request is actually quite simple. I just hope Aunt Yao and the team leader can help me conceal the situation."
"What do you mean? Why don't I understand?"
Yao Qiaoyun paused while washing the vegetables. What exactly did Jiang Li want to do?
"That is to say, no matter who comes to the village to ask about me, or anything else, you just have to say you don't know."
Jiang Li's words were clear and understandable, and Yao Qiaoyun nodded to show that she understood.
"Don't your aunt and her family already know about your situation? They won't come to inquire about you, right?"
"I'm afraid they'll throw dirty water on me outside, and then some people will take it personally, causing unnecessary trouble."
"I don't have any thoughts right now. I just want to find my sister, train my brother, and take good care of my two children. I don't want anyone else to disturb my life."
Jiang Li's words were ambiguous, Yao Qiaoyun seemed to understand but also seemed not to understand, so who was Jiang Li guarding against by doing this?
