Chapter 237: It’s boring to mistake the fake for the real
Being in Daliang, on the road of exile, danger is lurking.
Tu Huan woke up in Haicheng and found that the Jiang family villa was unusually quiet.
Jiang Li's voice could be heard from outside the corridor. Tu Huan heard the noise and got up. Just as she reached the door, she heard Jiang Li reminding the nanny outside: "Please be quiet when passing by Miss Tu's room. It's not easy for her to come here from out of town."
"OK."
Tu Huan was closer to the door and could hear it quite clearly.
She waited for a moment, opened the door, and saw Jiang Li.
She glanced down and heard a low laugh.
Jiang Li said happily, "Tu Huan, you are really my lucky star! My feet don't hurt anymore after you come here. It's magical."
When she woke up in the morning, Jiang Li felt that her legs and feet seemed to be healed.
I wasn't quite sure, but after removing the auxiliary aid, I found that it was indeed healed. Even when I put my foot down on the ground, my heel didn't feel the same piercing pain as before. It was unbelievable.
The Jiang family was shocked to see that their bride Jiang Li was well early in the morning.
Father and Mother Jiang did not sleep all night. Towards the early morning, the old couple felt really uncomfortable in their hearts, so they took a light nap. Not long after they slept, Jiang Li's elder brother came and knocked on his parents' door.
Dad Jiang was woken up by a phone call early in the morning.
The call was from Xie Siming's third brother, Xie Huailou.
Because it was too early, Xie Huailou called Jiang Hao, the eldest son of the Jiang family, first and said a few words briefly. The more Jiang Hao listened, the darker his expression became. Finally, after Xie Huailou finished speaking, Jiang Hao could only say the truth: "Mr. Xie, this matter concerns my sister Jiang Li's marriage. Even as her brother, I can't make the decision for her. Besides, my parents haven't said anything yet."
Xie Huailou understood what he meant, pondered for a moment, and said, "This is an urgent matter. If it is convenient, it would be better for Huailou to communicate with Uncle Jiang."
Jiang Hao couldn't make the decision and could only hand the phone to Jiang's father.
While Jiang Li was still asleep, the other three members of the Jiang family had completely lost their sleep. They didn't know what Xie Huailou had said to Jiang's father on the phone. After hanging up, Jiang's father was silent for a while and instructed his son: "Go wake up your sister."
Jiang Li woke up and after listening to what her family said, she finally understood what the call from Xie Siming's third brother meant.
"When we came back last night, Xie Huailou casually mentioned it as he was seeing us off. Since you and Xie Siming have already registered, you are the daughter-in-law of the Xie family. He recognizes you, and so does Old Master Xie. But the rest of the Xie family may not agree. The wedding must go ahead, but the time may not be to our liking. This is to give us some mental preparation in advance."
As soon as Mr. Jiang got home last night, he called his son Jiang Hao into the study. The two of them thought about the matter of Jiang Li and Xie Siming over and over again, and still felt that the wedding the next day might not be able to take place as scheduled.
On the Xie family's side, apart from Xie Huailou, whose attitude is relatively clear and it can be seen that he is somewhat biased towards Xie Siming, the attitudes of other Xie family members can be summed up in one word: indifference.
The Xie family is very good, not just very good, but extremely good in Haicheng.
The Jiang family has some wealth, and they have no worries about food, clothing, and wealth. Even if Jiang Li doesn't get married in this life, the Jiang family will still take care of her and make her live a luxurious life.
But even so, the Xie family of Haicheng is a family that the Jiang family cannot even reach even if they stand on tiptoe.
Jiang Li's finishing move was completely a lucky break.
The side branches of the Xie family who had ideas about Xie Siming had finally ruined the previous one, but when they turned around, they found that an unknown girl from the Jiang family had got there first. How could they accept this?
Xie Huailou's parents, and even Xie Huailou himself, had no idea how much gossip they had to deal with because of Xie Siming's affairs.
It’s okay if they just move their mouths, but I’m afraid that some people will use dirty words and move their hands and feet around.
Xie Huailou had just boarded the plane when his cousin Xie Siming had an accident. He had no choice but to temporarily replace the eldest son of the Xie family. Since Xie Huailou's eldest brother went overseas to take charge, his plane turned back.
In an accident, Xie Siming's men were injured and Xie Siming fell into a coma.
He blocked the real news about Xie Siming and did not allow Jiang Li to visit him. Several relatives from different branches of the family flocked to the hospital, all wanting to see with their own eyes whether Xie Siming was dead or not.
Jiang Li also wanted to know, but unfortunately, neither her father Jiang nor her elder brother Jiang Hao saw Xie Siming's true situation.
It is certain that Xie Siming is in a coma.
The unconscious person will not wake up for a while.
Both the father and son of the Jiang family had a bad premonition. Although they didn't tell Jiang Li, on the way back, Jiang's father actually gritted his teeth and greeted some relatives and friends in advance.
Friends and family all expressed their understanding and consideration, but in the end, this matter seemed like a joke.
Unexpectedly, the Jiang family was mentally prepared for the wedding to be called off, but when Xie Huailou called, he brought two meanings.
One is that Xie Siming is in a coma and cannot attend the wedding as the groom. If the Jiang family and Jiang Li still insist, then the wedding can only be held after cousin Xie Siming fully recovers.
Father Jiang's heart sank, and he thought, doesn't this mean the wedding is cancelled?
But when he thought so, Xie Huailou actually proposed another solution on the phone.
"Replacing the real with a fake?" Jiang Li thought she had misheard. "What do you mean?"
Her eldest brother Jiang Hao explained to her, "What Xie Huailou meant was that before Xie Siming fell into a coma, he had asked her if she had really decided to marry you and spend her life with you. Xie Siming's answer was that they had already obtained the marriage certificate and he wanted to live with you. So Xie Huailou thought that if you and Xie Siming had similar ideas, he could find someone to disguise themselves as Xie Siming and go through the wedding ceremony on his behalf. If Xie Siming is okay in the future, whether you two can just call it quits or find another opportunity to do it again is your business."
Jiang Li was shocked when she heard this: ...
What era is it now?
Eldest brother Jiang Hao said, "I was speechless when I heard this at first, but after Dad talked to him, I understood. Before Xie Siming got into trouble, he was anxious to get married with you because in the Xie family, getting a marriage certificate doesn't count as entering the Xie family. You two are legally husband and wife, but to the core people in the Xie family, you are still outsiders. Xie Siming thought that since you registered, you are husband and wife, but the Xie family doesn't recognize this."
Jiang Li didn't understand and was shocked. "They don't even recognize a legal couple?"
"It seems that the Xie family has its own specific recognition ceremony." Jiang Hao said.
Xie Huailou's meaning was very clear: either continue with the wedding process by pretending it was real, or wait.
This wait is a huge variable.
Now it depends on what the Jiang family chooses.
The father and son of the Jiang family were reluctant to make decisions for Jiang Li, so they let her make her own decision. It was important for her to make her own decisions on important matters in life.
Jiang Li thought about it seriously for a long time, but she still felt that it would be difficult for her to perform on stage with a "fake" in front of others just to get the approval of the Xie family when Xie Siming was lying unconscious in the hospital.
It's meaningless.
Jiang Li chose to wait until her legal husband Xie Siming woke up.
