Chapter 30 The old lady drinks pesticide

Lu Xiangyang was initially a little nervous, but quickly calmed down and asked, "Was that man about my height?"

"He looks a bit fierce, with hair down to his ears, and he looks like a thug?"

The young man couldn't help but ask, "How did you know? Did you follow them?"

Lu Xiangyang sat back down and said irritably, "That's my brother-in-law, of course I know him."

Is it unusual for an older brother to buy something for his younger sister?

Not surprising at all.

Besides, after spending some time together, he had gotten a better understanding of Jiang Jianni's personality.

She has an unyielding nature.

If she really had other intentions, she would directly ask him for a divorce, instead of maintaining the marriage while being affectionate with other people.

However, he also began to reflect on whether he had done something wrong.

Jiang Jiani needed yarn, so she asked her own brother to buy it for her.

Lu Xiangyang felt a subtle unease.

Or, we could think of something to buy for Jiang Jianni later?

On the other side, Jiang Jianni and Jiang Haibing returned home carrying a bag of yarn, candied hawthorns, a large bag of popcorn, oranges, and a bunch of bananas, only to find no one there.

"We've been wandering around outside for so long, and they still haven't come back."

Jiang Haibing: "Who cares about them?"

Anyway, we've eaten and drunk our fill.

Speaking of this, he was full of complaints: "My uncle and aunt really don't know how to handle things."

“We’re helping their family find someone, and we won’t be together for three days while we’re looking for them, so we’ll just eat on our own.”

"You said you weren't going to look for anyone today, but they didn't even suggest that we all get together for a meal."

"It's not like we have to go out to eat at a restaurant. We can just cook a pot of thick noodles at home and have some sesame flatbread and fried dough sticks with it."

"And the result? Nothing!"

"It's no wonder their family never gets rich."

Jiang Jianni laughed heartily: "Didn't you say you'd come to terms with it? I see you've been complaining quite a bit too."

Jiang Haibing argued vehemently: "Being open-minded and being dissatisfied are two different things."

Not long after, Jiang Yanni came home from school, followed by Jiang Haiyang.

It wasn't until the four siblings had finished dinner and there was no one outside that Jiang's parents returned around nine o'clock.

When she came back and saw the children, she waited for the two of them. Compared to her eldest son's family, a sense of happiness welled up inside her: "Your aunt is so pitiful."

Jiang Yanni curled her lip: "What's so pitiful about her?"

“My sister Yanfen is the one who is truly pitiful.”

“My sister Yanfen is a good student, but because Jiang Haiqiang’s grades are bad, they won’t let my sister Yanfen continue her studies, and they’ve even made my second sister drop out of school.”

"It's only because my sister Yanfen is kind-hearted that she's been able to put up with it until now."

"If I were Yanfen, I would have run away from home as soon as I got my ID card."

"At least Sister Yanfen left them four thousand yuan. As for me, I wouldn't leave them a single penny."

"Let them eat farts and drink the wind."

The family was dumbfounded.

Yang Yuemei immediately thought of Jiang Jiani's murderous declaration and was immediately struck with a headache.

She was always proud that all four of her children were obedient and well-behaved, but she never expected that her two daughters, while seemingly well-behaved, were actually rebellious at heart.

She sighed and got straight to the point: "Your aunt took her medicine."

Jiang Jianni didn't react: "You've been running around for days, so anxious and stressed, and you think taking some medicine is so pitiful?"

"Then wouldn't my brother and I be even more pitiful?"

Jiang Haibing frowned: "She drank pesticide?"

Jiang Jianni was stunned: "Pesticide?"

Yang Yuemei sighed, "Yes, dichlorvos, I really don't know what she was thinking..."

After the Jiang family of four left, Uncle Jiang still went to look for people.

After searching around without finding it, I heard someone shouting for help, saying that a woman had bought a bottle of dichlorvos, opened the cap, and drank it, which scared the shopkeeper.

Uncle Jiang's heart started racing at that moment.

Pushing through the crowd, the woman lying on the ground writhing in pain was none other than Aunt Jiang.

Uncle Jiang begged and pleaded until he finally found a tricycle to take the person to the hospital, where they were immediately taken to the emergency room for gastric lavage.

After the woman was rescued, the doctor said that it was fortunate that the seller administered the medicine in time, and that Aunt Jiang had only taken two sips.

Otherwise, if someone drinks the whole bottle, they might die before they can even get to the hospital.

Even so, it still causes significant damage to the internal organs, and the patient needs to be hospitalized for observation to see if there will be any long-term effects.

After speaking, Yang Yuemei sighed, "Why is she so upset? She was just scolded a couple of times. What's the big deal?"

“When your dad and I first got married, your grandma nagged me every day, but I didn’t take my medicine.”

Jiang's father glared at her: "Don't label me like that. Whenever I saw Mom talking about you, I always stopped her."

Otherwise, Yang Yuemei's personality would have been bullied to death.

Yang Yuemei pretended not to hear: "Your uncle's family, Haiqiang and Haisheng, are really scoundrels."

“Your aunt is their own mother, but she refused to go to the hospital to see her even though her own mother was hospitalized. She said she was too tired after searching for people for three days and needed to get a good night’s sleep so she could go to work the next day.”

"Your aunt was stingy her whole life and exploited Yanfen her whole life. She even wanted to use Yanfen to make some money, but it was all for their sake."

"At the very end, even when he was hospitalized, he wouldn't even go to visit him."

“Your aunt keeps saying how filial they are, but I think they’ll have to rely on Yanfen, their daughter, for their old age.”

It's a pity that Jiang Yanfen's daughter was driven away by her.

Jiang Haibing's eyebrows furrowed: "The old lady was hospitalized, and Haiqiang and Haisheng didn't go to see her, nor did their wives?"

Yang Yuemei gave a wry smile: "Everyone's busy taking care of their children, they don't have time to go to the hospital to see her."

"Hehe—" X2

Jiang Jiani and Jiang Haibing both sneered.

Yang Yuemei felt flustered whenever she saw the two of them: "Alright, alright, don't you have to go to work tomorrow? Go to sleep."

"And you two, have you finished your homework? Have you previewed your lessons? Have you reviewed them?"

Jiang Yanni pursed her lips and said, "Hmph."

Jiang Haiyang asked, "Uncle, are you going to work tomorrow? Or are you going to the hospital to take care of Auntie?"

Yang Yuemei hesitated, glancing at Jiang's father, then at her four children, and mumbled, "Your eldest uncle has to go to work, so he said he'd let me..."

Jiang Jianni said bluntly, "Their husband, son, and daughter-in-law are all busy, so they want you to help them, right?"

"A caregiver earns at least five yuan a day, how much is he planning to pay you?"

Jiang Yanni's eyes reddened with anger: "Whose mother are you anyway?"

"You go just because someone tells you to, but what about me? What about Haiyang and me? We still have to go to school, and you just don't care?"

Jiang's father stammered, "They do have to go to work. Besides, it's only for a few days. We're all family. It's not right to be so fussy..."

Jiang Haibing lifted his foot and walked out: "I'm going out for a bit."

Yang Yuemei panicked immediately: "Haibing, come back, come back quickly, I'm not going, I'm not going tomorrow."

No matter how much she called out, Jiang Haibing never returned.

Yang Yuemei was so anxious she almost cried: "You know, if a child is unhappy, why does he have to leave? Can't he just say what's wrong?"

Jiang Jianni chuckled: "Anyway, you won't listen, so what's the point of talking?"

The couple fell silent.

Frustrated, Jiang's father took out a cigarette, while Yang Yuemei sobbed softly.

Jiang Haiyang and Jiang Yanni both looked at Jiang Jiani.
