Chapter 214 Chinese New Year

That's what they say, but Su's mother couldn't bear to see her precious son suffer in prison.

Hearing this, Jiang Mi quickly pulled Su Yindi inside and closed the door: "Since that's the case, then you don't need our help at all. You'd better watch yourselves. We don't want to get involved in your bad luck during the New Year."

Su's mother was so angry at Jiang Mi that her face turned pale, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Su Xing pulled his mother back, saying, "It's alright. With my fate, nothing will happen. Maybe God just wants to test me. Don't look for them anymore, it's useless. Su Yin has been brainwashed by them. From now on, I'll pretend I don't have this third sister. Even if I get promoted and make a fortune, I won't take her to live a good life."

Upon hearing this, Su's mother felt that her son was right. If Su Yindi didn't help them, she would be the one who suffered in the end. Su's mother firmly believed that her son would eventually make it through.

After they left, Jiang Mi saw that Su Yindi was in a very downcast mood, so she went up to comfort her: "Third sister-in-law, don't be sad. You already know what kind of people they are, don't you? And when it came to whose fault it was, they were obviously guilty. It must be related to your good brother. If he is really wronged, we can help him seek justice, but it is obvious that he is the one who bullied others."

Su Yindi knew what kind of person her younger brother was; Su Xing was no kind person. She sighed and could only continue to be ruthless. There was no going back to her family home.

Jiang Zhi went back to his room and comforted Su Yindi. He couldn't let Su Yindi lose both her maternal and paternal families, especially since she was pregnant and couldn't be too heartbroken.

The Jiang family got busy again, and the festive atmosphere returned. Jiang Mi happily prepared for the New Year. Before returning home, she prepared new clothes for everyone in the family so that everyone could wear their new clothes on New Year's Day.

Liu He wiped the white powder off her face and said with emotion, "I haven't worn new clothes for the New Year for many years. This year is a new beginning for us. Things will only get better from now on."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan said to Liu He, "Wife, it's my fault for being useless and not being able to give you a good life. I promise I won't make you suffer anymore."

Liu He chuckled and said, "I was just remarking on how good our lives are now. Why are you saying that? You're being too formal. We're all family, so of course we should share the good times and the bad."

All of Jiang's daughters-in-law are good. Even when Su Yindi was young and immature, she never looked down on Jiang's family for being poor. Otherwise, she wouldn't have married Jiang Zhi.

As the new year arrived, Jiang Mi and her brothers went outside to set off firecrackers, feeling as if they had returned to their childhood. Many things had happened this past year.

She's still able to stand here safely thanks to the system; otherwise, she might have been reincarnated long ago.

"The firecrackers this year are a bit quiet, not as loud as the ones my older brother used to make when he was a kid," Jiang Zhi remarked with a sigh.

Jiang Yan chuckled and said, "We didn't have any money back then, let alone buy firecrackers. We had to figure out how to make them ourselves. We almost burned down our house, but luckily we found out in time."

When talking about the past, everyone's faces were full of smiles. Although they are all grown up now and have everything, they were still happiest when they were young.

"Yes, it scared Honey to tears back then. She was just a tiny little dumpling, and she insisted on following us around."

Jiang Mi was standing behind her three older brothers, grinning foolishly.

When she was little, she had her parents and three older brothers to protect her. Now that she's grown up, she has to learn to protect them too.

Jiang Mi vaguely thought she heard Huo Ran's voice. She quickly looked around but found nothing. Was she just hallucinating?

That's true, Huo Ran went back to the capital to spend the winter long ago, how could he possibly be here?

Was she hallucinating because she missed him so much?

"Alright, alright, just put it aside for now. Go back, third brother. You're about to become a father, how can you still be so playful? You'll have to take better care of the family in the future."

Jiang Zhi listened to Jiang Yan: "Brother, don't worry, I will definitely..."

"Take good care of the family. But you, as the eldest, need to have a child with your sister-in-law as soon as possible, to give our Jiang family a grandson."

Jiang Yan shook his head: "What do you mean by legitimate or illegitimate? We don't have that kind of thing in our family. Your sister-in-law and I just rely on fate. We don't force things. As long as you're doing well, that's enough. What do you mean by legitimate or illegitimate? Our family isn't some big clan. We don't have that many rules!"

Jiang Zhi chuckled. He was just feeling sorry for his older brother. Although his brother didn't say it, he knew that his brother really wanted a child. His brother and sister-in-law had been married for so many years, how could they not be anxious?

On the surface, the elder brother didn't say anything, but the sister-in-law was extremely anxious and would secretly use some folk remedies, but none of them worked. The two would also have arguments in private, but in front of everyone, they would pretend not to care.

"It's alright, I don't have any either. Third brother, you have one, that's fine. As long as our family line continues, it doesn't matter whether we have one or not. Besides, our parents don't care about this kind of thing."

Jiang Xuan offered words of comfort. This third brother was usually not good with words. Although he was the eldest brother, he brought up his brother's sad story in just a few words.

"Dinner's ready! You're all so old, why are you taking your little sister out to play? Hurry back!"

Hearing Jiang's mother's call, the group exchanged glances and smiled at each other. It was this feeling that instantly transported them back to their childhood.

"Okay, I'm going back right away." Jiang Zhi replied and led the way back home.

Back home, a large table of food had already been prepared. Jiang Mi looked at the dazzling array of dishes and her mouth watered.

Although we can eat these delicious foods every day, it's different on Chinese New Year, with even more and more elaborate dishes prepared.

Jiang Cheng only said a few words before telling everyone to start eating. Jiang Mi couldn't wait to start eating, muttering that it was delicious as she ate.

Helpless, Jiang's mother put another chicken leg on her plate and said indulgently, "Slow down, there's plenty more. No one's going to take it from you. Seriously, you're such a grown woman, and you have no manners at all. I wonder if your future mother-in-law's family will laugh at you."

Speaking of her future mother-in-law, Jiang Mi suddenly thought of Huo Ran again, wondering what he was doing now.

Liu He said with a smile, "Mother, please don't talk about her. It's only because she's in front of us that she acts like a child. Once she gets married, she won't be able to act like that anymore."
