Chapter 2 Letter of Severance of Relationship
During dinner that evening, Jiang Yurou reiterated her thoughts once again.
Of course, Jiang's father disagreed. He knew exactly who the Chen family was.
That family didn't originally need to be sent down to the countryside, but because of constant internal strife, the whole family ended up being implicated.
His poor, foolish daughter will probably be devoured until there's nothing left but bones after she marries him.
The second daughter is alright after marriage, but the eldest daughter, who is my precious darling, will break my heart to death after marriage.
"No, don't even think about it. I've already made arrangements with the Chen family. Your second sister will be marrying into their family. You'd better pack your things tomorrow, and I'll send you to Liaoning Province first thing the day after tomorrow."
Jiang Xixi pretended to eat with her head down; she knew she couldn't have too many illusions about her good father.
However, your eldest daughter, whose mind has been corrupted by wealth and luxury, probably won't understand your loving fatherly heart!
Sure enough, as soon as Jiang's father finished speaking, Jiang Yurou screamed in rebuttal.
"Dad, I've said it before, I'm going to marry Chen Wenli. I don't want to go to the countryside. If you keep forcing me, I'll kill myself!"
As Jiang Yurou spoke, she casually picked up a pair of scissors and held them to her neck.
Jiang's parents were terrified.
"Yu Rou, let's talk this out. Put the scissors down first."
"No, unless you agree to let me marry Chen Wenli."
Mr. Jiang was furious and heartbroken by his eldest daughter.
For the sake of a man, a man who is about to be demoted, she treats her loving parents, who are devoted to her, in this way.
"Fine, you can marry Chen Wenli. I won't stop you, as long as you don't regret it."
After achieving her goal, Jiang Yurou didn't eat and went straight to her room.
Jiang's parents were seething with anger, and since Jiang Xixi was still sitting at the table, she became the target of their frustration.
"Jiang Xixi, are you a pig? Huh? Your older sister is in such a big trouble and you don't even try to comfort her. Your older sister is always so good to you, and you've given her all your sincerity to a dog!"
"No, Yu Rou has always been obedient and sensible, and she even agreed to marry Wei Laicheng a while ago. Why the sudden change of heart? You didn't whisper something in your sister's ear, did you?"
As Jiang's mother spoke, she became more and more convinced that her guess was correct. Her gaze towards Jiang Xixi was like that of needles, as if she wanted to pierce through her from every angle.
Mr. Jiang, who was standing to the side, also had some doubts.
Jiang Xixi ignored the two lunatics and continued eating her meal.
When Jiang's mother saw that this brat was ignoring her words, and didn't care whether she had done it or not, she directly put the blame on her.
"You little brat, how can you be so heartless? That's your sister! You still eat it, you still eat it! Why don't you eat yourself to death?"
He got carried away with his cursing and smashed the bowl and soup in front of Jiang Xixi.
Jiang Xixi didn't expect her mother to do this. By the time she realized what was happening, she was soaked in soup from head to toe.
Although the soup wasn't hot, it was incredibly insulting.
Holy crap, Jiang Xixi just exploded.
You won't let me eat, huh? Then nobody else can eat!
She lifted one corner of the table with one hand and overturned all the food and soup on it.
"Do you think I'm so idle that I would go and instigate your eldest daughter? Am I crazy? Why would I be so eager to be sent down to the countryside? I'm not that brainless idiot like your eldest daughter."
"I've put up with you for too long, don't push me."
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were terrified by this scene and were completely stunned.
Is this still their incredibly weak second daughter who longs for family affection?
But when he came to his senses, he was filled with rage. He had been yelled at by his second daughter, who was usually so quiet that she wouldn't say three words after being hit with a stick. This was an immense humiliation.
"Jiang Xixi, you're asking for it!"
Jiang's father was so angry that his face turned red. He took off his belt and threw it in the direction where Jiang Xixi was.
Jiang's mother did not stop them, and there was even a hint of excitement and relief deep in her eyes.
Jiang Xixi didn't tolerate them. She swung her belt over, grabbed it, and threw it back at the couple.
Perhaps they thought Jiang Xixi wouldn't fight back, or perhaps they were too old to dodge, but in any case, both husband and wife were beaten by Shui Lingling.
They were all beaten pretty badly.
One was slapped across the cheek, leaving a dark red mark, while the other twisted his waist while dodging, and his belt also hit around his neck.
The couple wailed and cried, yet they continued to hurl insults at Jiang Xixi.
"Jiang Xixi, are you trying to get yourself killed? How dare you hit your parents! This is outrageous! How dare a child hit her parents?"
"Oh dear, Jiang Xixi, you unfilial daughter! I'm going to let everyone in the courtyard see just how unfilial you are."
Jiang's mother's voice was very loud; from a distance, it seemed that some neighbors had already been woken up.
Jiang Xixi, however, remained unperturbed, watching the couple's performance as if they were clowns.
"It just so happens that these neighbors have arrived at the perfect time, and I also have some things I'd like to share with our good neighbors."
For example, the major fire that happened at our steel plant last year, and for another example, that major fire had some unknown connection with our Director Jiang…”
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father first felt guilty, then disbelieving, and finally suspicious.
He handled that matter very well. How could Jiang Xixi, a woman who rarely leaves her home, possibly know about it?
Jiang's father stared intently at Jiang Xixi, trying to discern something from her face.
Unfortunately, Xixi's facial expression management is exceptionally good.
"For example, why were there flammable materials in the workshop that day, and why did our Director Jiang happen to be in the office that day?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father realized that this brat must know something.
He winked at Jiang's mother, signaling her to stop crying.
"Fine, I won't hold your unfilial behavior against you today, but the matter you mentioned must be kept firmly locked in your heart."
"Ha, Director Jiang, you're being funny. How can these two things be compared?"
"What else do you want?" Father Jiang was pushed to the limit, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.
"I don't want anything in particular. I just want Director Jiang to sign this severance agreement and guarantee that she will never disturb my life again, nor will she let me take care of her in my old age. Most importantly, she must state that whatever happens to the Jiang family in the future will have absolutely nothing to do with Jiang Xixi!"
Jiang Xixi spoke clearly, word by word.
She had wanted to do this for a long time. The college entrance examination is in December this year, and she can return to the city through the exam. However, she must pass the political review.
What Jiang Weiguo did was a ticking time bomb.
This letter severing ties is better than nothing.
Mr. Jiang could hardly believe it. Was it really like this?
Perhaps fearing that Jiang Xixi might change her mind, he quickly signed the letter severing ties.
Seeing her father's actions, Jiang Xixi smiled meaningfully.
Sign it. After all, this letter severing ties is Comrade Jiang Weiguo's execution order!
