Chapter 14 Jiang Nuanzhu: "You seem to know me very well?"

"Girl, what are you asking about?" Father and Mother Jiang had probably been taught a lesson by Old Man Jiang a long time ago. There was no strange expression on their faces, and they calmly changed the subject.

"Now that we've got the marriage certificate, when are you planning on having the wedding?"

Jiang Nuanzhu: "The 27th of next month."

Mother Jiang was slightly stunned: "It's already decided?"

Jiang Nuanzhu nodded lightly.

Jiang Nuanyu smiled and said, "Sister, you are becoming more and more considerate. You didn't tell my parents about getting the marriage certificate, and they didn't have to worry about the wedding. It's really easy for my parents to marry their daughter."

In the past, when faced with Jiang Nuanyu's sarcasm, Jiang Nuanzhu just endured it silently and never refuted.

But this time she didn't want to endure it.

Jiang Nuanzhu picked up the bowl and filled it with soup for Xu Heyi before saying, "I have always been considerate and never dared to cause trouble for my parents since I was a child. It's not the first day you've known this."

Xu Heyi looked at the clear chicken soup in the bowl, with an ambiguous look in his eyes.

The atmosphere at the dinner table became noticeably less tense.

It was Jiang's father who spoke first: "Where do you plan to live after you get married?"

"The new house is in Nanshan Villa."

Mother Jiang curled her lips, her words hinting at anger. "It seems you've prepared everything. You don't need us anymore?"

Jiang Nuanzhu said politely, "I don't dare to trouble my parents."

There was no intimacy in the conversation between this family, only awkwardness and courtesy.

Mother Jiang said in a deep voice, "Even if you don't want to trouble us, we, as your parents, really can't just say nothing."

Jiang's mother is a strong woman who always acts more rationally than emotionally.

Noticing her daughter's awkward politeness, she couldn't lower her pride to say anything nice, so she just said coldly, "When we were preparing for your marriage with Yan Shi, I had already prepared most of your dowry. Now that you've changed someone, you don't need to prepare everything again. I'll have it delivered to Nanshan Villa when the time comes."

"Don't accuse us of being partial. When your sister gets married, her dowry will be the same as yours."

Jiang Nuanzhu didn't refuse, but simply said, "Thank you, Mom."

The polite conversation between mother and daughter made the atmosphere of the meal increasingly cold.

"There's no rush to discuss these things. Let's eat first!" Father Jiang hurriedly changed the subject and picked up two serving chopsticks for Jiang Nuanzhu. "This shrimp is Xiao Wu's new specialty. Try it."

"Thank you, Dad." Jiang Nuanzhu lowered his eyes and slowly picked up the chopsticks.

Jiang Nuanyu couldn't bear to see her father fawning over Jiang Nuanzhu. "Sister, the Jiang and Yan families are both prominent families. You rashly canceled the marriage with the Yan family. Isn't that a bit thoughtless? My family doesn't know how to explain it to the Yan family."

Jiang Nuanzhu nodded: "You are right."

Jiang Nuanyu was a little surprised.

Then Jiang Nuanzhu said calmly, "Breaking off the engagement will indeed hurt the relationship between the two families. Why don't you fulfill your responsibilities as a daughter of the Jiang family and get engaged to Yan Shi to maintain the relationship between the two families?"

Jiang Nuanyu suddenly became angry and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

Mother Jiang said in a sharp tone, "Nuanzhu, how can you say such things? No matter how bad your sister is, she doesn't look down on Yan Shi!"

"And is it a good thing for two sisters to be engaged to the same person?"

Jiang Nuanzhu curled her lips and said with a hint of sarcasm: "So you know what kind of person Yan Shi is?"

Jiang Nuanzhu poked the shrimp in the bowl and said slowly, "In your eyes, if someone is not worthy of Jiang Nuanyu, then I am the only one who can be worthy of him."

Jiang Nuanzhu's voice was very calm, without any sharpness, but it made Jiang's father and mother change their expressions.

"What do you mean?"

Mother Jiang said coldly, "Are you blaming us for introducing Yan Shi to you? It was you who fell in love with Yan Shi, and now it's our fault?"

Jiang Nuanzhu smiled lightly and said, "Mom, you're right. I'm just curious why you hid the matter between Yan Shi and Feng Nuan?"

Jiang's mother's voice suddenly softened. "What man doesn't have a past? As long as Yan Shi sincerely changes his ways, why are you harping on this little thing?"

"So Mom thinks Yan Shi has really changed?"

Jiang Nuanzhu lowered his eyes and chuckled softly, revealing a hint of sarcasm, "Since you feel you have changed, how can you say that he is not worthy of Jiang Nuanyu?"

Every word Jiang Mu said was contradictory.

Every sentence shows fairness, and everywhere is partiality.

But Jiang Nuanzhu has already gotten used to it.

Suddenly, a pair of chopsticks appeared in front of me, and a piece of chicken fell into the bowl.

When Jiang Nuanzhu looked up, she saw Xu Heyi's gentle and calm face.

Jiang Nuanzhu realized belatedly that arguing with the Jiang family about Yan Shi was in itself disrespectful to Xu Heyi.

She suddenly looked up at Mother Jiang, her eyes warm and bright, "Mom, what you said is not right."

What's wrong?

Everyone's eyes were focused on Jiang Nuanzhu.

There was a genuine smile on Jiang Nuanzhu's face, and a hint of pride lingered in her soft voice, "My husband has no past!"

Xu Heyi, who was picking up food, felt his hands tremble slightly, and all the surging emotions were suppressed in his heart in an instant.

He continued to pick up food for Jiang Nuanzhu with a normal expression.

The others were caught off guard and were shown off by Jiang Nuanzhu.

Jiang Nuanyu suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."

Ignoring other people's reactions, she stood up and walked out. After taking two steps, she suddenly said, "Sister, do you want to come with me?"

Father Jiang tried to smooth things over awkwardly, "Maybe Nuanyu has something to say to you as her elder sister. Go ahead."

Jiang Nuanzhu didn't refuse, she put down her chopsticks and said to Xu Heyi, "I'll be back soon."

"Don't stay too long, or the food will get cold."

"good."

As soon as he entered the bathroom, Jiang Nuanyu's face changed and he threatened Jiang Nuanzhu with a sneer.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll tell my new brother-in-law about what you did in the past? I bet he doesn't know that my sister looks gentle and dignified, but in fact she is a vicious woman who attacked her own sister?"

Jiang Nuanzhu slapped Jiang Nuanyu in the face.

The crisp sound echoed in the bathroom.

Jiang Nuanzhu touched the palm of his hand, which was a little painful, and his expression was calm as usual. "If you have the guts, go tell him in front of him."

Jiang Nuanyu covered her face and said in disbelief: "You hit me? Are you crazy?!"

"I'm not crazy, I just don't want to tolerate you anymore." Jiang Nuanzhu said seriously, "Ever since you started gloating over the drama between me and Yan Shi, I wanted to slap you."

Jiang Nuanyu rubbed his face and snorted coldly, "You've been pretending to be docile and well-behaved for so long, and now you can't pretend anymore?"

"Pretending?" Jiang Nuanzhu looked at her calmly, "Before, I just didn't bother to argue with you. Now..."

Jiang Nuanzhu felt that instead of continuing to endure, it would be better to learn to go crazy.

"Aren't you afraid that your new brother-in-law will dislike you if he knows your true face?"

Jiang Nuanzhu turned around and turned on the faucet to wash her hands. "My parents probably don't know that you have a gigolo outside, right?"

Jiang Nuanyu's arrogance immediately dissipated. She covered her face and looked around, "What nonsense are you talking about! What pretty boy? Don't you dare hurt me!"

After washing his hands, Jiang Nuanzhu turned off the faucet and wiped the water off his hands slowly.

Her pair of clear black and white eyes looked at Jiang Nuanyu quietly: "Jiang Nuanyu, are you still trying to challenge my bottom line?"

This sentence immediately reminded Jiang Nuanyu of some old things, and she couldn't help but shiver.

After a few years of peace, she almost forgot the nightmare she had.

At this time, Jiang Nuanzhu had already turned around and left.

When Jiang Nuanzhu returned, he found that his bowl was already piled high with vegetables, as high as a hill.

The shrimp and eggs that Jiang's father had picked up were gone.

Jiang Nuanzhu looked at Xu Heyi deeply.

Not long after, Jiang Nuanyu came back. If you looked carefully, you could see the red marks on her face.

But no one in the audience asked about it.

The meal went on quickly, and after it was over, Jiang Nuanzhu and Xu Heyi left.

Xu Heyi's driver came to pick someone up.

After getting into the black Bentley, Jiang Nuanzhu turned his head to look at the scenery outside the car.

The shadows of trees stand quietly on the roadside, and the moonlight above is like a layer of gauze covering the ground.

Jiang Nuanzhu was silent for a long time, then suddenly turned to look at Xu Heyi and asked, "You seem to know me very well?"

Jiang Nuanzhu enumerated them one by one: "I'm allergic to shrimp and eggs, and I don't eat carrots..."

Later, the dishes Xu Heyi picked for her completely avoided these things.

Even the shrimps and eggs that Jiang's father picked up for her were eaten by Xu Heyi.
