In the end, Jiang Tong did go back, because her younger brother and sister-in-law said that their mother asked her to go back. However, she did not bring her two children with her this time.
She knew her parents' character well, so she didn't want to bring the child back and suffer with them.
There will inevitably be arguments when we go back.
Hanhan and Peipei were playing with Zhou Jiaqi in his large apartment.
Jiang Tong had nothing to worry about.
She also told Zhou Yuansheng, who said it was no big deal and even jokingly asked if she needed him to accompany her back. Jiang Tong politely declined with a smile.
Jiang Tong was mainly worried about disturbing Zhou Yuansheng. They had only just started talking, and she didn't want her family matters to affect him, so she decided to wait and see.
When Jiang Tong arrived home.
Just as she had guessed, her parents were both fine, but she had many relatives.
Her sister-in-law sent her a message saying that she couldn't help, and that she and Jiang Tong's brother had been forced by Jiang's parents to send messages to Jiang Tong.
They just wanted Jiang Tong to come back, but they were even transferred away by Jiang Tong's parents.
The sister-in-law said she was powerless to help.
It was already quite good that she could secretly send Jiang Tong a message to remind her.
Jiang Tong told her younger brother and sister-in-law that it was fine, since she wouldn't make the same mistake with her parents again, and that she would resolve the matter once and for all to avoid further trouble.
The atmosphere at home looks like a three-way trial is about to begin.
But when she took a closer look, she realized something was wrong. There was also a strange man, probably in his thirties, sitting next to an older woman.
When Jiang Tong's aunt saw her enter, she immediately beamed with joy, "Tong? You're back! Come on in, have a seat, just give me your luggage!"
Her aunt took the luggage from her and then tried to push her onto the sofa so that she could sit with the man, whose face was slightly flushed.
Jiang Tong didn't let go of the suitcase, but calmly smiled and said, "No need, Aunt, I can put my luggage away myself. Do we have guests?"
As she said this, she glanced coldly at her father, who was sitting silently on the sofa, and her elderly mother, who was busy in the kitchen.
She understood.
This isn't a three-way interrogation; it's like they've arranged a blind date right at her house and are waiting for her.
Jiang Tong really didn't understand why her parents wanted to remarry her off so quickly, even arranging blind dates for her without considering her feelings.
But since they really want to play, she'll play along.
Third Aunt is Jiang Tong's father's cousin. She is very eloquent, but her reputation is not good. Her family life is noisy and chaotic. Her husband gambles and owes debts, and her son and daughter do not work and live off their parents every day.
She was living a chaotic life herself, but she was extremely enthusiastic about arranging marriages for others.
The other two are her aunt and her maternal uncle's wife, who are relatives from her mother's side.
These two are talkative and gossipy.
If you say they're particularly bad, it seems they haven't actually done anything that would harm their family. But if you say they're good, they're incredibly cunning, constantly inquiring about their family's affairs, as if afraid you're doing better than them.
Jiang Tong put her suitcase down, and her aunt urged her impatiently to come out, "Tongtong, hurry up, there are guests at home, you have to come out quickly, this person is your cousin's son's friend, he is very handsome!"
Her aunt, with her mouth agape, kept praising Jiang Tong, saying, "I heard they own several houses. He works in sales and can earn two or three hundred thousand a year. Last year, his company even gave him a car worth several hundred thousand!"
Jiang Tong was speechless. "What does all this have to do with me? Auntie doesn't need to tell me these things."
Her attitude was already very cold.
Auntie clicked her tongue, as if she wanted to say something, but then seemed to remember something, and finally said with a smile, "Oh dear, look at you, you've made another friend! Now that you have money, you can learn from her how to make money!"
Jiang Tong was quite helpless.
Finally, she pulled Jiang Tong to hurry up and go outside, leaving Jiang Tong with nothing but to sit there.
Since they wouldn't say it outright, she pretended to be oblivious, sitting as far away from the mother and child as possible, quietly drinking a bottle of mineral water.
Both mother and son share the surname Zheng.
Single-parent family.
The man seemed very talkative, chatting with the elders with ease, making them beam with joy and laugh heartily.
Mr. Jiang seemed quite satisfied. He asked, "Judging from what you've said, you must have earned quite a bit this year, but you must have spent quite a bit too, right? Traveling, exercising, eating and drinking—how much could you possibly have left?"
Zheng Ren laughed and said, "Hey, it's nothing, I can afford this little bit of money! You have to know how to spend money to make money! Jiang Tong, what do you do for a living? Let me introduce myself. I work in operations and sales at a car company, and my annual salary is about 200,000 to 300,000 yuan."
He looked quite proud.
The three matchmaking relatives immediately perked up their ears. The eldest aunt nudged her aunt with her elbow, indicating that things were looking promising and the man was starting to take the initiative.
Zheng Ren was quite satisfied with his blind date because she was very beautiful, and he had heard that she was a good girl who had always been good at studying, cooked well, and was very virtuous. She had previously been a housewife.
These kinds of women are usually easy to manipulate; if you tell them to go east, they would never dare to go west.
It's very easy to control.
He originally preferred women who were a bit wild, but he believed it was better to marry a virtuous and honest woman. However, when he saw Jiang Tong, he was pleasantly surprised. She was not as docile as the matchmaker had described; her eyes and brows held a cool and aloof quality.
It easily arouses a man's desire to conquer.
Jiang Tong looked at the man in front of her. He was also wearing a suit, but he really didn't suit a suit. As an artist, she was naturally picky about aesthetics. Even her scumbag ex-husband was extremely handsome when he was young.
It's not that she judges people by their appearance, it's just her personal preference; she's very particular about looks.
Moreover, she has the right to be picky.
Before she could even speak, her third aunt immediately interjected, "Hey, our Tongtong doesn't work. She stays home taking care of the kids. She's such a virtuous woman. She hasn't worked for several years, so she probably wouldn't be used to working anymore."
Jiang Tong raised an eyebrow, about to say something, when Zheng Ren started talking non-stop again.
"Oh?! So Tongtong is so virtuous? She's a perfect match for me! As you all know, I'm a grown man, and I'm always home alone with nothing to do. I just want to find someone virtuous to take care of my daily needs."
"Then I think you might need to hire a nanny. Nannies aren't expensive these days, maybe ten thousand yuan a month? Mr. Zheng, if you look hard enough, you're sure to find one."
Jiang Tong offered him such friendly and sincere advice.
Auntie immediately poked Jiang Tong's waist, urging her to stop talking nonsense, and then quickly smoothed things over by saying, "Look, this child really knows how to joke."
Zheng Ren's expression was also a little bad, but he smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.
His mother, Ms. Zheng, had been secretly scrutinizing Jiang Tong for a long time. She could tell that Jiang Tong's words were barbed, so she raised her chin and mocked, "Jiang Tong, is that right? I can tell you've been staying at home for too long. You don't even know the value of money anymore. You're talking about tens of thousands of yuan right off the bat. How do you know how hard it is to earn money if you don't work?"
