Chapter 40 Jiang Sui talks about the unknown past



"If I keep my word about divorce, I will regret this decision for the rest of my life."

Jiang Sui put down his chopsticks, sighed, and looked at Xiang Baiwei across the table, "Can't you just give me a chance? What did I do wrong that you don't even want to give me the chance to spend my life with me?"

The look in his eyes was so heavy that Xiang Baiwei turned her face away in a rare show of weakness.

How could she explain this?

There’s really no way to explain it. I can’t just say that I don’t want to make the same mistake again, right?

"What exactly do you want me to do to get a divorce? Jiang Sui, if you feel embarrassed, you can tell the outside world that you dislike me. You can put whatever accusation on me, as long as you don't make my parents angry. I don't care about the rest."

The more Xiang Baiwei said this, the more Jiang Sui's heart ached.

He got up in anger and stood in the yard. After calming down for about ten minutes, he turned back to Xiang Baiwei at the dining table and said, "Then give me a reason why we can't live together."

"I don't think we are suitable. In order to avoid further pain in the future, it is better to break up as soon as possible." Xiang Baiwei organized for a long time and made up a reason that was hard to convince others.

Jiang Sui was so angry at this reason that he laughed: "You think we can't live well? I think we can live like a couple that others can't even envy!"

He was anxious and angry, so his tone was a little unstable when he spoke.

But to Xiang Baiwei, this instability sounded like he was deliberately getting angry.

"Jiang Sui, marriage is a major event in life. Don't be angry. It will make your life miserable in the future. If we end up living as a pair of resentful lovers, there is really no need for that." Xiang Baiwei also lost her appetite for food. She put down her chopsticks and went to the yard.

"But I don't understand. Although it's only been a month since we got married, I feel like we get along very well. But why are you like a cold stone that I can't warm up?"

Jiang Sui looked at Xiang Baiwei with a sad face. He didn't know if he could still win Xiang Baiwei back.

If he couldn't win back Xiang Baiwei, then what was the point of this life that he had worked so hard to obtain?

The pain on his face was too obvious.

Xiang Baiwei couldn't bear to look at it and turned her face away.

For some reason, Jiang Sui's reaction reminded Xiang Baiwei of herself waiting for him to come back in her previous life.

Perhaps out of pity for herself, Xiang Baiwei softened her tone and said, "Well, let's not divorce for now. You will change your mind over time."

"I won't."

Jiang Sui said with great confidence, "I will let you see my sincerity."

Xiang Baiwei, who didn't want to continue arguing about this with him, shook her head helplessly: "Let's continue eating and stop discussing this matter. We'll talk about it later."

"good."

Three days later.

Upon learning that Jiang Sui had the opportunity to return to the city but gave it up, the Jiang family sent someone to send a letter to question him.

When the letter arrived, Jiang Sui and Xiang Baiwei were picking peanuts in the field.

Xiang Baiwei looked up and found Jiang Sui with a gloomy face. She was confused and came over to ask curiously.

Jiang Sui handed the letter to her directly: "Take a look."

After reading it once, Xiang Baiwei understood why Jiang Sui had such a reaction.

The letter consisted of two pages, filled with criticism of Jiang Sui for giving up the opportunity to return to the city.

Xiang Baiwei, who was eager to watch the fun, took a small stool and sat next to Jiang Sui: "Your family members strongly disagree, do you still have a chance to change their minds?"

Jiang Sui sneered unabashedly: "You don't want to change your mind. I haven't told you what the situation is with my family, right?"

Hearing this, Xiang Baiwei secretly responded in her heart, I know it without you telling me.

Jiang Sui has an older brother. His parents-in-law and uncle have shown their disdain for Xiang Baiwei since the first day they met.

In her previous life, Xiang Baiwei was often disliked by Jiang Sui's relatives.

They all thought Xiang Baiwei was a vulgar country girl and not worthy of Jiang Sui. They wanted Jiang Sui to marry a cadre's daughter, or at least one from an intellectual family.

But when Jiang Sui went to the countryside, he brought back Xiang Baiwei, who was born into a poor peasant family for three generations. Even after she gave birth to a child, Xiang Baiwei was still at the bottom of the social class in her husband's family.

At the beginning, Xiang Baiwei was fooled and thought that she could ease the relationship between herself and Jiang Sui by pleasing her in-laws, so she spent a lot of money and effort.

But later on, even though she earned a lot of money and put in a lot of effort, she was still not treated as a human being.

Brother Jiang Sui's wife, who is also their sister-in-law, is a opportunist. Relying on her noble status, she has bullied Xiang Baiwei many times, both openly and secretly.

So, after reading the letter, Xiang Baiwei secretly made up her mind that if Jiang Sui changed his mind and returned to the city because of this letter, she would definitely not go back with him.

It’s enough to endure the same grievance once.

Seeing that she had finished reading the letter, Jiang Sui folded the letter casually, stuffed it into the envelope, put it in his coat pocket, and put on his gloves again: "I won't go back. As for the reason, you know part of it in your heart."

Oh, Xiang Baiwei remembered the heartfelt words Jiang Sui said that night when they drank mutton soup.

Xiang Baiwei was afraid that he would repeat himself. After all, there were still so many people on the field, so she quickly asked another point: "What is the other reason? Your family scolded you. They must want you to go back. Do you dare to disobey your family?"

"Of course I dare! When I get home tonight, I'll explain the reasons to you in detail."

Chi Kunli, who happened to be walking by, chuckled when she heard this, and bumped into Xiang Baiwei meaningfully, "Silly girl, you really don't know how lucky you are!"

Jiang Sui showed a hint of pride on his face, and then he said, "Let's work first. We can talk about flirting when we get home."

Xiang Baiwei's face turned red due to her teasing, and she walked away with her head down to continue picking peanuts.

When he got home in the evening, Jiang Sui took the initiative to bring up what he had talked about in the afternoon at the dinner table.

"In fact, I didn't have to go to the countryside to be a teacher," Jiang Sui slowly said what was on his mind. "At that time, my family bought two job quotas, one for me and one for my brother. But in order to get married, my brother forced my parents to give the job quota to my brother's girlfriend."

Xiang Baiwei, who didn't know about this, was stunned. After a moment, she said indignantly: "They are too much. This is very unfair to you!"

Jiang Sui smiled bitterly: "It's all over. It doesn't matter whether it's fair or not. Anyway, now it's just like that between me and them."
