Jiang Hao looked up at Jiang Zexing, his big, round eyes rolling around.
"Sister, I'm fine now."
Afraid that Jiang Wan wouldn't believe him, Jiang Hao climbed up from the bed with his butt sticking out, ready to jump and hop around for Jiang Wan to see.
She quickly caught him, otherwise it would have been a disaster if he had fallen to the ground.
"Okay, okay, I'm relieved that Hao is in good health."
After saying this, Jiang Wan turned and looked at Jiang Zexing.
"Wanwan, listen to what Dad is saying. Go apologize to your grandma and this matter will be over. We are a family after all. Dad will handle these matters from now on..."
"Dad will handle it? How will Dad handle it?"
"We, the eldest wife, do the most housework, but in the end, are we okay? I don't believe you can't see that Mom was clearly tricked out that day. What did you do, Dad? And today, Mom wasn't fully recovered yet, and all the family's clothes were piled there, leaving her to wash them all by herself. What did you do, Dad?"
"There are some things I really shouldn't say, but I'm going to be unfilial today and say this: Mother married you because she liked you, not to be tortured by our family. And my younger brother... We don't have many children, but look at my second uncle's cousin Jiang Ying. When has she ever gone into the mountains to chop firewood or worked in the fields to plant and harvest crops like us?"
"My little brother is only this old, he should still be playing around, but now he has to go into the mountains with us to chop firewood to supplement the family income."
Compared with their eldest wife's three children, Jiang Ying's life is so good.
"Grandma called you over today just to beat and scold you, and to accuse us of being unfilial. But, Dad, ask yourself, what unfilial deeds have we done?"
"Are you stopping me from dying, or are you stopping my mother from dying?"
"You always tell us to be patient, but we've been patient for so many years, and our hearts are already tired. In fact, you are the only one dreaming like a dream, Dad!"
"Today I'll come to you, it won't be the last time. If you soften your heart again, it will only get worse in the future."
Jiang Zexing was good to them, but he couldn't let go of the Jiang family. What Jiang Wan said today expressed what she wanted to say in two lifetimes.
Jiang Zexing's face flushed red, her words kept lingering in his ears, making him feel embarrassed and also... helpless. His heart couldn't help but waver.
He moved his lips with difficulty, but said nothing. There was a hint of disbelief in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Wan.
After a long moment, his eyes moved. "Wanwan, you've never been so harsh before..."
“It’s all because of Dad’s incompetence that you’ve suffered.
As soon as the big house stopped, there was a sudden sound of crackling and clanging in the yard.
"Jiang Zehai, Aying is your only daughter! Don't you feel sorry for her?"
'ah--'
"Xie Ying, what are you doing?"
Jiang Zehai screamed, and a long scar was seen on his face caused by Xie Ying's scratches.
He covered his face and spoke unhappily.
"Of course I feel bad, but you can't contradict me, right? Besides, this is your fault in the first place. I never said anything about marrying Aying to the young master of the Liang family."
"What did you mean you didn't say? Ah Ying heard this with her own ears. You're such a mortal! You only know how to side with your mother every day. You have no regard for us mother and daughter. You might as well just let me die!"
Xie Ying sat directly on the bed, crying and shouting.
As for Jiang Ying, she sat aside, her eyes red and swollen, crying with her head down.
Seeing their expressions, Jiang Zehai's expression changed and he sighed.
"Okay, as long as I'm here, Mom won't marry Aying off."
"Clean it up quickly, this is disgraceful!"
Xie Ying wiped the tears from her face and said, "Okay, Aying, no one dares to force you to do anything you don't want to do. Mother will protect you."
She only has this one daughter. Since Old Zhang dares to think about it, she dares to make a fuss. Doesn't her father-in-law value his reputation the most?
This matter eventually reached Jiang Anfu's ears. With a group of people making such a commotion at home, it was hard for him not to know.
"Listen, listen, the family is in turmoil right now."
"I told you before not to think about the Liang family anymore. I think you really ignored my words!"
Jiang Anfu took the pipe and took a deep puff. After a moment, the pipe in his hand fell on the small wooden table in front of him, making a thudding sound.
"A few days ago, you brought the matter to the village chief, bringing shame to our family. Now you're making trouble again today. Do you really want to bring disgrace to the Jiang family? Ah?"
"Xiaoshan is going to take the imperial examination in the future. If his classmates heard about what's going on at home, how would you let him cope?"
"Is this what I want? Could it be that Xiaoshan is not my son? I do all this for Xiaoshan and this family!"
Old Mrs. Zhang gave him a sidelong glance and threw the shuttle in her hand onto the table.
"Who is Mr. Liang? He's a relative of the county magistrate. If Xiaoshan could get along with him, how many detours could he avoid in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Anfu looked up suddenly.
"Is Mr. Liang a relative of the county magistrate?"
Old Zhang rolled her eyes at him and said, "Nonsense! If it weren't for this, would I be so diligent?"
"It's all Jiang Wan's fault. I've raised her for so long in vain. She's so unreasonable and unreasonable. She's such a heartless person. She doesn't even think about repaying the family, and she only causes trouble for them."
When Jiang Anfu heard this, he frowned and his eyes became dark.
He hadn't considered that Mr. Liang was a relative of the county magistrate. "How did you know that?"
