Chapter 15 I Will Support You
Jiang Hong looked at her with a flattering smile on her face, and felt a little strange in his heart, but he was always quick to calm down and quickly calmed down his strange heart, "Almost a month! Twenty-eight days to be exact."
At this moment, Li Yiyi was in no mood to think about the awkwardness of having to stay at home for 28 days. Her mind was now full of thoughts about him being at home, so she could concentrate on her studies.
"Then I want to discuss something with you. You also heard from Third Uncle that the medical qualification exam is at the end of the month. There are only a few days left. I must study hard to have a chance. See if you can take care of the family affairs..."
Before she could finish, the man had already finished what she had not finished, "No problem, just study hard during this time, and leave the housework to me."
Li Yiyi didn't expect things to go so smoothly. She excitedly stepped forward and shook his hand vigorously, saying with gratitude, "Comrade Jiang Hong, you are really so kind. Although you usually look cold, I didn't expect that you have a warm heart. I really didn't misjudge you."
Jiang Hong was feeling happy about her compliment, but when he heard the following part, the corners of his lips, which had finally been raised, suddenly froze in place.
"My face is cold?" So this is how she remembered him.
Seeing that he suddenly became serious, Li Yiyi realized that what she had just said seemed to have offended him.
"I was wrong. You don't look cold at all. You are a very nice person." She said to him with a wry smile.
After saying that, she secretly sighed in her heart. If you want help from others, you have to do things according to their mood.
Jiang Hong didn't believe her explanation, but he couldn't help thinking that he was actually a cold-faced person in her heart.
"I'll leave the housework to you. I'll go into the house and study hard." Seeing that he didn't say anything, Li Yiyi quickly found an excuse to go back to the house.
Jiang Hong, who stayed where he was, reached out and touched his cheeks on both sides. "Is my face cold?" After muttering to himself, he pulled the corners of his mouth on both sides and tried to smile more.
Just then, a figure walked into the yard from outside.
When Jiang's mother walked into the yard, she saw her little son making faces with a painful expression.
"Third brother, what are you doing? Does it hurt anywhere?" Jiang's mother was so scared that she quickly walked up to him and asked, pulling his arm.
Jiang Hong looked at his mother who suddenly appeared. His handsome face, which had been stiff from practice, showed an awkward expression. He called out in a somewhat unnatural voice, "Mom, why are you here?"
Mother Jiang stared at his face. "Mom is asking you something. What's wrong with your face? Why do you look like you're in pain?"
When Jiang Hong heard her question, his expression froze, "Was I scary just now?"
"It's terrible. No, you're just feeling unwell. You keep changing the subject." Jiang's mother asked angrily.
Jiang Hong replied with a somewhat disappointed look, "I'm not feeling unwell, I just had a cramp on my face."
"Why is your face cramping?" Jiang's mother asked in confusion.
Jiang Hong really didn't want to talk about this topic with his mother, so he quickly changed the subject, "Mom, are you okay?"
Mother Jiang then remembered the purpose of her visit. "Oh, by the way, something happened. You and your wife don't have to cook lunch today. Come to our house for dinner. Your father asked your sister-in-law to buy a pound of pork."
As she spoke, Jiang's mother realized that she had been here for a while and had not seen her daughter-in-law.
"Where is your wife? Has she gone back to her parents' home again, or is she being lazy again?" she asked angrily.
She thought that her daughter-in-law had become a better person, but she was wrong.
Jiang Hong frowned slightly and said, "She is studying in the room. She is going to take the medical qualification examination held by the county."
"Mom, don't talk about her like that. It hasn't been easy for her these years. You should be more tolerant of her. It's your son who is sorry for her." He said again.
Seeing that her son's heart was set on his young daughter-in-law, Jiang's mother said with a bit of emptiness in her heart, "Haven't I been tolerant enough towards her over the years? Most of your salary was given to her, and she moved out as soon as you got married. Look at your two sisters-in-law, aren't they enjoying enough? The old saying is true, this son will forget his mother after getting married."
Seeing his mother angry, Jiang Hong quickly took her hand to comfort her, "Mom, I know, I understand your hardship, but this is how my career is. If I can take care of the outside world, I can't take care of my family."
Mother Jiang felt relieved when she saw her son, "Alright, I'm just saying this. I understand your difficulties. That's it. Remember, come to my house for lunch at noon."
"Okay, Mom, take care." Jiang Hong sent Jiang's mother out of the house. He stood at the door and didn't go in until Jiang's mother walked away.
Li Yiyi, who had been locked up in her room for most of the day, came out, looking listless, and asked the man chopping wood in the yard, "Did anyone come just now?"
"Well, mom is here. She asked us to come over for lunch today." He looked at her with worry in his eyes.
"Why do you look so tired? Have you encountered any difficulties?" After hesitating for a moment, he asked.
"I used to think that I could pass the exam even without the books, but I found that I thought too well. I thought for a long time and still didn't know where to start reviewing or what to learn. I was really afraid that I would not pass the exam." She said with a sigh.
"I'll think of a way to deal with this matter. Don't push yourself too hard. There will always be a way to solve it. If you really can't pass the exam, I'll support you." Seeing her frowning, he spoke to comfort her.
"That won't do. I have to pass the exam. I want to earn my own money." At this point, she immediately added, "Of course, you still have to hand over your salary. I'm your wife, and it's only right that you give me your salary."
Seeing her money-grubber look, Jiang Hong smiled softly and looked at her tenderly, "Okay, I'll listen to you. If you want to take the exam, then take it. I'll find a way to help you. As long as you want to do it, I'll support you."
Li Yiyi's pretty face turned red and her cheeks felt hot when she heard his sudden confession. Especially when she looked into his eyes, her heart was pounding as if it was going to jump out of her throat.
"Didn't Mom say that we should go over to eat? I'll go in and get some things." After saying this, she turned around shyly and ran into the kitchen.
Jiang Hong had a smile on his face as he watched her running in in a panic, his eyes full of tenderness.
In the kitchen, Li Yiyi touched her burning cheeks and was stunned for a while. When she came to her senses, she slapped her cheeks hard with her hands and murmured, "How embarrassing!"
