Jiang Ruyu had already guessed: "Sigh, I guessed it."
"Sister, I regret it. I was afraid that Grandma would leave with regrets, so I married Guan Jin. Actually, we didn't spend much time together. I was busy with work and didn't have time to spend with her. She was also busy with work. We were always happy to see each other. I didn't expect that there would be so many conflicts after we got married."
Guan Jin is a very strong-willed person, and Jiang Lin is also someone who responds better to gentleness than force. After they got married, even though they still had their own jobs, they had time off every week, and Jiang Lin also had holidays. They were together every day, and many problems came to light.
Guan Jin can't cook and is a bit of a germaphobe. Jiang Lin likes to eat but can't cook either. After a day of training in the army, he inevitably smells of sweat, and Guan Jin sometimes shows that she hates this smell.
Jiang Lin would shower in the camp every day after that before returning home. After Guan Jin got married, she felt that Jiang Lin's constant tolerance was what he should do, but she didn't do anything for him.
Even after giving birth, she still brazenly refused to allow Jiang Lin to send anything home. All of this caused a rift in their relationship. Her provocation towards Jiang Ruyu during the Chinese New Year was the fuse and the detonator.
Jiang Ruyu looked at Jiang Lin and then at her nephew, and finally voiced her thoughts: "Are you still planning to get married?"
Jiang Lin was taken aback, looking at his sister and then at the child: "I... I don't know, I haven't thought about this question yet."
"Jiang Lin, my opinion is that you should get married, and it would be best to get married soon. While the children are still young, find a suitable person so that the children can develop a relationship with her. Chuan Chuan and Zhou Zhou are too young to remember anything yet, so this is the best time to cultivate their relationship."
Jiang Lin didn't expect his sister to say that: "But, I, I don't want to have any more children. If I get married and have children, how can she possibly treat my children as her own? If she has her own children, what if she's biased? I'm also afraid that I'll change."
Jiang Ruyu knew the saying that if there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather. Suddenly, she remembered something that Li Xiuying from the west had told her a while ago. It was about Sun Li's boyfriend's cousin, who had been sent to the countryside for seven years, and whose family had managed to bring her back this year.
It's said that her husband in the countryside beat her, causing her to miscarry her unborn child. In the end, this woman couldn't have children anymore. I used to just hear it as a story, but now that I think about it, maybe I should ask him.
"I'll find someone to find you a divorced woman who can't have children," Jiang Ruyu asked Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin did not refuse: "As long as there is one like this and it looks suitable, I'm fine with it."
After Jiang Lin agreed, Jiang Ruyu mentioned it to Zheng Yang that evening and then prepared to go and ask Li Xiuying. Zheng Yang felt sorry for his wife, who was always worrying about things.
"Jiang Lin is so grown up now, stop worrying about this and that all the time."
"How can I not feel at ease? Look, Chuan Chuan and Zhou Zhou are so young and they don't even have a biological mother anymore. I can raise them, but that's so unfair to you. Besides, I don't want Jiang Lin to be a bachelor for the rest of his life at such a young age. The two children need someone to take care of them. A divorced person who can't have children is the most suitable for Jiang Lin."
It's not that I'm selfish, but Jiang Lin's future will only get better and better. These two children are enough. As long as the woman who married Jiang Lin treats these two children as her own, she will definitely have a good life in the future.
Zheng Yang fell silent; he just felt sorry for his wife who was always worrying.
The next morning, Jiang Ruyu bought steamed buns and soy milk porridge, along with some side dishes, which was enough for breakfast. She also boiled two eggs for her two daughters and ordered fresh milk every day to ensure their nutritional needs were met.
She went to find Li Xiuying while eating her steamed bun. The elderly couple from the Sun family were having breakfast, eating wontons they had bought from outside. When Li Xiuying saw Jiang Ruyu arrive, she knew that Jiang Ruyu had come for something.
"Something's up, right? Sit down and let's talk." Li Xiuying brought a stool over for Jiang Ruyu, while Sun Datou took his bowl and went to the door to eat.
Jiang Ruyu felt a little embarrassed as she watched Uncle Sun go out to eat: "I even squeezed Uncle Sun out, how embarrassing."
"Don't worry about him. He's not interested in what we women are saying anyway. Just say what you want to say."
Li Xiuying is living a very comfortable life now. Sun Chang and his wife don't live with them, but they bring their grandson to visit them every week. Sun Li also has a child now and often comes to visit them. Sun Yuan is still the same, but after being tricked by Sun Chang a few times, he no longer dares to bother his parents.
Li Xiuying and Sun Datou had time and money, and no one gave them a hard time, so they lived a very comfortable life.
Jiang Ruyu was someone they watched grow up. Now that the older generation in the compound is all gone, Jiang Ruyu can only talk to her about anything.
"It's like this, Aunt Xiuying, the other day you told me about Sun Li's boyfriend's cousin getting divorced and going home. Can you tell me about her? What kind of person is she?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiuying glanced at her and asked, "Why are you asking about her? Do you want to play matchmaker?"
Jiang Ruyu thought for a moment and then told Li Xiuying about Jiang Lin, knowing that Li Xiuying was tight-lipped and wouldn't say anything: "Jiang Lin got divorced. I heard you say that the woman can't have children anymore, is that true?"
"What? Jiang Lin got divorced? How did he get divorced?" Li Xiuying was clearly more shocked by this question.
"Hey, they're complaining that Jiang Lin has poor relatives like us. Anyway, it's just some trivial stuff. He's from the city and a doctor. It'll be easier for him to remarry after the divorce. Tell me about that girl." Jiang Ruyu didn't want to go into details.
Li Xiuying sighed. Jiang Lin's ex-wife was really confused. Jiang Hui and Jiang Ruyu were such good people. How could they be poor relatives? Zheng Yang and Ruyu earned so much a month. How could they be poor? They must have had too many good days.
"I do know that girl you're talking about. Her name is Zhang Xiaoyan. She's about twenty-five this year, two years older than Jiang Lin. She went to the countryside to replace her younger brother, who is in poor health. Her family feels guilty towards her because of this."
The farm work in the countryside was arduous. The son of an accountant from a production team fell in love with her. She was also beautiful and had a gentle personality. After staying in the countryside for a few years, she felt it would be difficult to return to the city, so she got married.
She became pregnant six months after getting married. Her family's attitude changed drastically upon discovering her pregnancy. They wanted her to ask her family for things, but she refused, so they gradually started verbally abusing her. When she was seven months pregnant, the couple argued, and the man pushed her, causing her to go into premature labor. She suffered severe bleeding and barely survived, but she could no longer have children.
Her in-laws were trying every possible way to make things difficult for her. They wanted their son to divorce her and also wanted to extort money from her family. The crucial point was that her family knew nothing about any of this; she had kept it a secret. It was only after she hadn't contacted her family for a long time that they went to check on her and found out what had happened. In the end, they spent a considerable amount of money to bring her back.
