Chapter 451 The Relationship Between Them
It turned out that Jiang Yao had been jealous of herself since the moment she entered the Ye family, but she hid it well. Plus, she was young and didn't have any bad thoughts at all, and she didn't understand how people could be so scheming.
Ye Qiaoqiao continued to read.
I saw that Jiang Yao often used the excuse of taking care of the flowers and plants in the garden to find various opportunities to meet Zhou Chong who came to visit her.
She soon got to know Zhou Chong and her friends privately.
Then, Ye Qiaoqiao saw Jiang Yao take the initiative to help her receive the letter.
I saw that she actually secretly opened the envelope for the first time and sealed it again. Then when I was tidying up her room, I saw the seal and asked someone to secretly carve one for her.
Jiang Yao began a tragic relationship with Zhou Chong.
From Jiang Yao's perspective, she has a crush on a man whom she cannot love. She can only write letters to him secretly every time and dares not be discovered by anyone in the Ye family.
Until one day after reading a letter from her lover, she was so tired and happy that she accidentally fell asleep. The letter in her hand was stuck in her clothes and was discovered by Jiang's mother who was packing clothes to wash.
Jiang's mother was literate and recognized the two words "Zhou Cong" at a glance.
Her first reaction was that Jiang Yao had secretly opened the young lady's letter.
She held the letter nervously and found Ye Qiaoqiao, "Miss...how are you getting along with Comrade Zhou recently?"
"Zhou Chong? We haven't been in touch for a long time. He's busy with business in the south, and it takes a long time for him to call me. But every time he comes back, he will meet me and give me gifts. Alas, it's really hard to wait for a partner who is out of town."
Jiang's mother's expression changed slightly, and she was a little surprised. "Miss, you and Comrade Zhou don't have any correspondence?"
"We kept in touch, but he didn't reply much, so I didn't write much."
Ye Qiaoqiao said casually, "I don't know when Zhou Cong will come back this time. The New Year is almost here."
Jiang's mother was terrified, her eyes were filled with doubt, and the letter paper in her hand was almost wet.
She retreated quietly without telling Ye Qiaoqiao about this, but quietly put the letter back under Jiang Yao's mattress.
From that day on, she began to observe Jiang Yao frequently and discovered that she hurriedly found the letter, read it carefully, and then carefully put it back into the money box that she always kept locked.
It turned out that there was no money in it, only tokens of private communication between Jiang Yao and Zhou Chong.
Because Jiang's mother started to pay attention, she discovered that Jiang Yao was indeed secretly communicating with Zhou Chong through letters, and was using Ye Qiaoqiao's identity.
The more Jiang's mother watched, the more frightened she became. Even when she found out that Jiang Yao began to accept Zhou Chong's gifts, those expensive gifts were extremely painful to her.
There was even one time when he was almost discovered by Ye Qiaoqiao, but Jiang's mother stepped in and tricked Ye Qiaoqiao away.
From that day on, Jiang's mother could no longer pretend that she knew nothing.
The night before Zhou Chong returned to Huaicheng.
Jiang's mother took the initiative to find Jiang Yao and confessed to her face to face in the servant's room.
"Xiaoyao, do you like Zhou Cong?"
Jiang Yao was shocked by her mother's words and subconsciously wanted to deny it, "Mom, why are you asking me that? I didn't. Zhou Cong is the lady's boyfriend. How could I possibly like her? Besides, I'm not worthy of him."
Jiang Yao's last words were full of bitterness, as if she had eaten bitter lotus, and the bitterness showed on her face.
Jiang's mother swayed and almost lost her balance. She reached out to hug her and cried, "My poor child, how could you like Zhou Cong? He is the young lady's boyfriend. How could our family possibly marry into such a wealthy family? You really, really pissed me off."
Jiang Yao couldn't hold back her tears. She hugged her mother's waist and asked with tears in grievance, "Mom, how did you know? I... I really didn't mean it..."
"I don't dare to steal Miss's boyfriend. I will definitely not continue to contact Zhou Chong in the future. I know I am not worthy of him. I also know that he must like Miss, not me. I am just being sentimental. Can you please not tell Miss? Just think of me as helping Miss to maintain her relationship with Zhou Chong during this period of time."
"Mom, I beg you...I don't want anyone to see me looking so pitiful."
"I will leave quietly after the young lady marries Zhou Chong and will definitely not cause any trouble to the young lady."
Jiang's mother became even sadder after hearing these words. She just kept saying, "My poor daughter."
Jiang Yao's tears soaked her clothes. The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried for a while, and finally recovered.
Jiang's mother quickly wiped her tears and said, "Okay, stop crying. Don't let the leaders find out about this."
"I'll get some ice towels to help you reduce the swelling in your eyes."
"I know, mom."
Jiang Yao wiped away her tears tenderly, and the redness and swelling of her eyelids went down, but there were still some traces, which were seen by Ye Qiaoqiao during dinner that night.
Ye Qiaoqiao asked with concern, "Jiang Yao, is there something wrong with you? Tell us what's wrong, maybe we can help you find a solution."
Jiang Yao shook her head gently and smiled at her, "Miss, it's nothing. I was just cleaning the spider webs on the wall this afternoon and some dust got into my eyes. Mom has helped me get it out, but it still hurts a little and it's swollen."
"Oh, is that so? I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative tomorrow to see if there are any hats like that for sale. I was inconsiderate."
Jiang Yao forced a smile and said nothing.
She stood aside and slowly heard Ye Qiaoqiao say.
"Zhou Chong will come to visit us tomorrow, Dad, you have to stay at home..."
"Well, girl, you really forget your father now that you have a partner." Commander Ye said jealously.
Ye Qiaoqiao immediately coaxed him sweetly, and Commander Ye soon started laughing.
The relationship between father and daughter at the dinner table was very warm.
Ye Qiaoqiao was suspended in the air, watching this scene with a smile on her face. Only by seeing how her father raised her and the pain she went through, could she know how deep her father's love for her was.
Ye Qiaoqiao's gaze moved and fell on Jiang Yao. She saw jealousy in Jiang Yao's eyes.
Ye Qiaoqiao frowned slightly, with a bad feeling in her heart.
Following Jiang Yao's gaze, she arrived at the room.
Jiang Yao sat on the bedside, with an uncontrollable joy on her face, "Brother Zhou is coming back? I can see Brother Zhou now."
"I don't know if Brother Zhou likes the way I am now..."
"Brother Zhou likes my long hair the most..."
Jiang Yao spent the whole night in her room getting dressed.
The next morning, Zhou Chong arrived at the Ye family as promised.
Ye Qiaoqiao and Commander Ye entertained him politely and warmly.
Because it was a holiday, Zhou Chong drank some wine.
He went into the bathroom first, and then went to the back garden to get some fresh air.
At this time, Jiang Yao, who was dressed simply but had light makeup on her face, appeared in the back garden holding clothes and bent down to hang the clothes on the pole.
The clothes were too light and accidentally fell to the ground. Jiang Yao quickly picked them up and rushed to the bathroom in the house.
