Chapter 66: Accidentally Overheard a Conversation



When she was arguing with him, Jiang Sui's words, "Is this okay?", which were exactly the same as in the previous life, made Xiang Baiwei feel as if she had not been reborn.

It's all still a mistake.

Xiang Baiwei's expression became more and more ugly. Jiang Sui, who didn't understand why, panicked: "Don't be angry! I...I apologize to you. I do hate Zhang Guangcan, but I shouldn't talk to you with emotion. Please don't be angry, okay?"

"I don't want to cook anymore, you do it yourself. I suddenly remembered that my mother asked me to go home. It seems that she has something to tell me. So you can eat by yourself today. I'm going back to my mother's house now."

Xiang Baiwei untied her apron and stuffed it into Jiang Sui's hands.

Jiang Sui hurriedly chased out of the kitchen and carefully grabbed Xiang Baiwei's sleeve: "Weiwei, are you still angry?"

"I'm not angry. I told you that my mother wants to see me for something. Don't you want me to go back to her house?"

Xiang Baiwei turned around and questioned Jiang Sui.

At this juncture, Jiang Sui certainly didn't dare to anger Xiang Baiwei again: "No, I just want to ask when you will be back and what's going on at home? Do you need my help? I'm afraid that if you go home alone, your parents-in-law will think we had a fight."

“It’s normal to quarrel!”

Xiang Baiwei looked at Jiang Sui expressionlessly, "It's common for young couples to quarrel. Who can guarantee that they will live in harmony for the rest of their lives? Maybe after a while, even if I don't mention it, you will want to divorce!"

Seeing her say the words that he could not accept so lightly, Jiang Sui felt deeply tired.

"Weiwei, you promised me not to ask for a divorce. Yes, my tone just now might really be wrong. I apologize to you, so why don't you just stay at home? Don't go back to your parents' home. I cut some fresh meat today and want to stew it for you at noon."

Jiang Sui didn't understand why Xiang Baiwei was like this, so in order to appease her, he acted humble in front of Xiang Baiwei for the first time.

If Jiang Sui had done this in his previous life, even if he was not so humble, even if he had been a little more patient and communicated calmly with Xiang Baiwei, the two of them would not have ended up like that.

It’s a pity that Xiang Baiwei didn’t buy his trick at this moment.

Or perhaps Xiang Baiwei was moved, but Jiang Sui's attitude always reminded her of her hysterical self in her previous life... It was too ugly.

How did I become that kind of woman?

She doesn't trust her husband, but is easily bewitched by others.

It's so wrong! Xiang Baiwei lowered her head and thought for a while, then looked at Jiang Sui: "I'm sorry, my attitude just now was not good, don't take it to heart. However, I really have to go back to my mother's house, in case my mother has something important to ask me."

Since she had already made concessions, Jiang Sui naturally couldn't pursue her any further, but just to be on the safe side, he still asked, "When will you be back?"

"Wait until I finish helping my mother with her work. I will definitely be back today or tomorrow. It's not a good idea to stay at my mother's house all the time."

Xiang Baiwei answered him casually.

Jiang Sui didn't like to hear uncertain answers: "Then I'll pick you up at night. We're in the same village anyway. If you don't come home to stay at night, your parents-in-law will definitely think too much. You'd better not let them worry about us."

Under the banner of caring for the elderly, I believe Xiang Baiwei will not reject me.

Although Xiang Baiwei knew what he was thinking, she thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.

If she stayed at her parents' house tonight, her family would definitely worry about her. After all, they lived in the same village. She didn't even want to walk those few steps. It was obvious that she must have had an argument with Jiang Sui.

"Okay, then you pick me up tonight. I don't dare to walk alone at night." Xiang Baiwei pulled back her sleeve and left without looking back.

"I was so scared! My wife almost got angry with me!"

Jiang Sui lowered his head and sighed, then walked into the house to prepare for class.

Since Xiang Baiwei was not around, he had no appetite to eat. It just so happened that the two of them had just had an argument, which made it even harder for him to eat. He was so worried that he was full.

On the other side, Xiang Baiwei was walking on a country road with a depressed mood.

When she was almost home, a neighbor passed by carrying water and took the time to greet her: "Are you going back to your mother's house?"

Xiang Baiwei responded with a smile and couldn't help but touch her face, wondering if she was showing her emotions too obviously.

The neighbor's next words instantly dispelled her doubts: "Your grandparents are at home. Is it appropriate for you to go there empty-handed?"

Grandpa and grandma are here?

Xiang Baiwei was delighted, and then she smiled and replied to her neighbor: "Don't rush to take the things. I'm in a hurry to go back and see them."

"That's right. Every time you go back to your parents' home, the things are carried by your husband. You are so lucky to have found such a good man." The neighbor walked away while carrying water.

Upon learning that her grandparents had arrived, Xiang Baiwei trotted to her mother's house.

When she reached the outside of the wall, Xiang Baiwei stopped and took a deep breath. At this moment, the conversation on the other side of the wall came into her ears.

The first thing I heard was my grandmother Wang Zhang's voice: "That girl still doesn't know that she was adopted, right?"

Wang Chunhua's voice followed: "I don't know. How can I tell her about this? That girl has a lot of ideas. If I tell her too much, she will think too much."

"What's there to think about? Isn't it normal to pick up a child these days? It's good to know. She will be grateful to you. If it weren't for you, how could she have grown up so well? And be matched with such a good man." Wang Zhang sighed as she spoke, "I don't know what kind of people her parents are, but looking at her face, you can tell that her parents must be good-looking."

As they talked, they both recalled Xiang Baiwei's famous good looks in the area.

"Such a good child, her parents..." Wang Chunhua seemed to want to say something, but Xiang Laogen's voice suddenly sounded and interrupted her.

Xiang Baiwei, who was outside the wall, was stunned.

She slowly squatted down, hugged her legs and remained silent for a long time.

Who is the child that grandma and mom are talking about?

You're not talking about me, are you? I'm not the child of the old Xiang family?

Faintly, Xiang Baiwei remembered what the women in the village said to her as a joke when she was a child.

"Such a pretty girl, her parents are really cruel."

"Wang Chunhua is so lucky. She got a beautiful daughter for free without suffering."

At that time, Xiang Baiwei was still young and thought that the village ladies were playing a joke on her.
