Old Mrs. Tao was cowardly and troublesome. After her husband died in middle age, she raised three ungrateful sons, helping them get married and have children. In her old age, no one took care of he...
Seeing that Tao Ying was asleep, Jiang Huan gently covered her with the blanket. He wanted to secretly kiss Tao Ying's forehead, but he was afraid of waking her up, so he refrained from doing so.
After Jiang Huan gently closed the door, he turned around and saw Wang Baomin sweeping the yard outside.
"Uncle Jiang, I've put the toiletries in your room," Wang Baomin said softly as he walked over to Jiang Huan when he saw him come out.
"Understood," Jiang Huan replied with a smile.
I really found that these kids are all really good, and each of them genuinely cares about Tao Ying.
Seeing that Jiang Huan had returned to his room, Wang Baomin put down the broom and went back to Wang Baoshan's room.
"Did you go back?" Wang Baoshan asked softly.
"Okay, go to sleep," Wang Baomin replied softly.
"Brother, I'm not feeling well." After a while, Wang Baoshan said quietly.
"Then try to think positively. Uncle Jiang is very good to Mom," Wang Baomin said softly.
"I know, I just feel like a very precious treasure has been stolen from me." Wang Baoshan felt his eyes getting sore.
"Let's go to sleep." Wang Baomin didn't want to continue this topic.
The next morning, when Tao Ying got up, Jiang Huan was already busy with everyone.
It was a lively and fun time, and I successfully integrated into the family.
Seeing that Tao Ying had gotten up, Jiang Huan immediately put down what he was doing and brought a basin of warm water to help Tao Ying wash up.
Wang Chuntao, who was a step too slow carrying a basin of water, was speechless.
He could only silently put down the basin of water and continue with his work.
I felt a little uneasy. This job is usually mine, so why is he taking my job?
"Xiaoying, what's your decision?" Jiang Huan looked at Tao Ying expectantly.
"What's your decision?" Tao Ying looked at Jiang Huan, somewhat bewildered.
"We'll get married on the sixteenth of the first lunar month, that would be perfect." Jiang Huan looked at Tao Ying earnestly.
Tao Ying “…”
"Xiao Ying..." Jiang Huan urged again when Tao Ying didn't answer.
"No rush. I'll come to Shanghai to see you when I'm feeling better," Tao Ying reassured softly.
"I'm leaving in my third year of junior high, let's go back together and meet my parents." Jiang Huan couldn't wait at all.
Tao Ying simply stopped answering; this person was obsessed.
"Xiao Ying..." Huan glanced around and, seeing no children nearby, raised his voice and tugged at Tao Ying's sleeve.
"Take it easy, or you'll pull me down again." Tao Ying glared at Jiang Huan, unaware of how much strength she actually had.
"Marriage..." Jiang Huan quickly let go of her hand.
"What's the rush? We've only just started dating. I'll come to Shanghai to see you after the Lunar New Year, and we'll talk then," Tao Ying sighed and said softly.
"Why aren't you in a hurry? What time is it after the first month of the lunar calendar? Is it the first day of the second month?" Jiang Huan asked eagerly.
Who wouldn't be anxious about this?
Tao Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Xiaoying..." Jiang Huan's voice carried a hint of anxiety.
"I called Jiang Jiang before I went to arrange things at the company," Tao Ying replied with a smile.
"Why call her? It's not like I don't have a phone. Call me beforehand, and I'll come pick you up." Jiang Huan was dissatisfied.
"Where are you going to pick me up?" Tao Ying sensed something was wrong.
“I’ll come pick you up from home, so you don’t have to take the train alone, and I can spend more time with you,” Jiang Huan replied matter-of-factly.
"That would be too tiring. I'll take the train myself." Tao Ying turned and walked back.
This person is too excited to talk to.
"How boring," Jiang Huan said, still unwilling to give up.
"Then tell me first, and I'll pick you up. We don't need Jiang Jiang to pick you up," Jiang Huan added, afraid that Tao Ying would get angry.
"Okay." This time, Tao Ying didn't refuse.
Whether it was Jiang Huan's massage technique or Tao Ying's improved health, Tao Ying's recovery was getting better day by day.
Before Jiang Huan came, he could only move slowly and was often exhausted, but he has improved a lot in just a few days.
Jiang Huan left on the second day of the Lunar New Year.
"Xiaoying, I'll go back and talk to my mom first. I'll also apply for the military family compound first. Do you want a small courtyard or a tenement building? In Shanghai, I bought a place near Jiang Jiang's house. I've already asked Jiang Jiang to help with the renovation. If you have any ideas, call Jiang Jiang. I've already talked to her and she'll decorate it according to your wishes." Jiang Huan looked at Tao Ying with reluctance.
I really don't want to leave. I'll be all alone again when I go back.
"I don't like tenement buildings. I also have a house near Jiang Jiang's house, which is already renovated." Tao Ying doesn't like tenement buildings.
At that time, the tenement buildings were not large, and the rooms did not have kitchens or bathrooms.
There's only one kitchen on each floor, so everyone knows what they eat. It's just that if the couple makes a lot of noise, everyone will know.
The restrooms are inconvenient, and the environment is poor.
Nothing beats a private courtyard. You can install your own shower room and even build your own toilet. It's a detached house with good privacy.
"It's all packed, and the house is registered in your name too." Jiang Huan didn't mind whose house he lived in.
As long as his wife is his, Jiang Huan doesn't care about anything else.
"Drive carefully. If you get tired, find a guesthouse to stay at for the night," Tao Ying gently instructed.
"Don't worry, take care of yourself too." Jiang Huan wanted to hug Tao Ying, but seeing the others around, he gave up the idea.
After Jiang Huan left, Tao Ying began to work.
We finalized the work arrangements with the workshop director and the technical department staff.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Chuntao started school; after the first lunar month, Wang Baoshan started school.
On the second day of the second lunar month, Tao Ying received a call from Jiang Huan.
"Xiaoying, when are you finally coming? It's already the second year of junior high." Jiang Huan's voice was filled with endless sorrow.
"I bought a ticket for the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. If I'm not late, I should arrive by 3 PM on the sixth day." Tao Ying rubbed her temples; she'd been so busy lately.
"Then I'll pick you up at the train station." Jiang Huan's voice carried an undisguised excitement.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Huan immediately called home.
Tell your family that Tao Ying will come on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.
"Understood, we will definitely treat you with the highest level of hospitality," Madam Jiang replied with a smile.
Old Madam Jiang had been waiting for this day so long that the flowers had almost withered.
Then he called Jiang Huan's two older brothers and told them that no matter how important the matter was, they had to come over.
Jiang Jiang's sister-in-law, Zhao Shengnan, readily agreed. Even if her mother-in-law hadn't emphasized it, Zhao Shengnan would have come back anyway.
This is a major life event for Jiang Huan. He has waited so many years for this moment, how could he not value it?
Jiang Jiang's second sister-in-law, Sun Cuiping, was a little unhappy. Although she agreed verbally, her expression was not good.
“Your mother is really funny. Jiang Huan must be out of his mind. How could he be so infatuated with a divorced old lady who is almost fifty years old?” Sun Cuiping didn’t understand and couldn’t figure it out.
I feel like I've had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to run into such a brother-in-law and sister-in-law.
This family is all mentally ill, and seriously so.
